princess regent lifted from her grave

Then Ye Linxiu sat up straight and continued,

"I didn't understand at the time why the will was issued after the death of the fourth brother.

Not long after, the death knell of the imperial palace rang, and I knew that my father had passed away, and then my father's will came, letting the fourth brother inherit the throne. I was shocked, and finally knew why my father said it was the fourth brother. After the collapse, this edict was announced to the world.

All the princes thought that the throne would be passed on to King Yinghui, the elder brother of the seventh emperor. I also thought so before. After all, King Yinghui was also appreciated by his father. He was well-bred and very intelligent since he was a child, but after the fourth brother ascended the throne, he left the holy capital. I heard that he went to live a life like a wild crane, but I don't know if it was the last wish of his father or his own plan. Knowing him, he is not the kind of person who likes to live a leisurely life. "

Ye Lijue nodded lightly, and then asked, "The emperor knows about the edict?"

Ye Linxiu shook his head, "He only knows that there is something in my hand that will threaten his throne, but he doesn't know exactly what was written."

With sarcasm in Ye Lijue's eyes, she said coldly, "Perhaps it's because of his vague guess that there hasn't been a day in these years when he didn't want to get rid of me and then go fast."

Ye Linxiu was startled, and his voice was sullen, "Why did he want to get rid of you? You were so young at that time?"

"I have the Red Forest Army in my hands. He has always felt that his throne is threatened. As far as I can tell, there are constant assassinations."

Ye Linxiu understood, "When he was a prince, he would not easily trust others. Now that he is on the throne, his suspicions can only be even greater. It's just that you have suffered a lot these years. Master Chen of Si Tianjian once said that you have been a child since childhood. In the beginning, there were constant hardships and dangers, but the dangers were overcome.”

Ye Lijue said, "So, Master Chen also told you to wait patiently in the iron cage, and a woman will come to rescue you."

Ye Linxiu nodded and said, "Yes, Mr. Chen also told me the same way."

The corner of Ye Lijue's mouth curled up slightly, and he said calmly, "Then what else did Master Chen tell you?"

"Master Chen, he..."

Ye Linxiu knew that he had been tricked by his ninth brother, so he smiled helplessly.

"Ninth brother, you are still like a child, and you unconsciously used the words. At that time, I didn't treat you as a child. Now that you have grown up, it is easy for you to ask this question, no matter, but now Don't get involved with Miss Mu."

There was a hint of a smile in Ye Lijue's eyes, "Brother Eight Emperors, don't worry, Miss Mu won't be implicated in any way."

Mu Fengyan, who was still sleeping soundly, had no idea that she and King Xiu had agreed in advance that the boat of lying together would turn over as soon as they said it.

Ye Linxiu felt relieved when he heard that Miss Mu was not implicated, and said slowly,

"Less than a year after the fourth emperor ascended the throne, Master Chen sent an invitation one day and asked me to go to the Huxin Pavilion outside the city. Say I will be in prison for ten years, let me not be discouraged in prison, wait quietly, and a woman will come to rescue me,

He also told me to complete the tasks entrusted by the late emperor. Mr. Chen also said that the day I get out of the prison is the day when the emperor's death is approaching. people.

I was shocked at the time, and asked him if there was a way to crack it, Mr. Chen just told him, "Those who know the secret, can't defy the sky," and then left. "

Ye Linxiu picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and continued,

"At first I didn't believe it, I thought Mr. Chen was talking nonsense, but I carefully hid the royal father's will secretly in a mansion in the suburbs, and there was no one in that mansion except the personal guards. Know again. I have always kept Master Chen’s advice in mind all these years in the iron cage. While waiting for the woman to come to rescue me, I let myself persevere through every day. Thinking of the day when I get out of the cage, it will be the emperor’s deadline When the time comes, I am very excited, and when I think of my father's last words, I will have the motivation to live."

The corner of Ye Lijue's mouth curled up slightly, he never expected that Brother Eighth Emperor would persevere with this kind of thought in the past ten years.

Master Chen can be said to have given Brother Eight Emperors a good medicine.

Then Ye Lijue asked aloud, "How did Miss Mu bring you out?"

Ye Linxiu shook his head, "I don't know, when I saw her, I passed out from excitement, and when I woke up, I was lying on the bed."

Ye Lijue nodded, and did not continue to ask, he believed that Yan'er would tell him in the future.

"Ninth Brother, is the Prince Xiu's Mansion still there?"

Ye Lijue frowned slightly, but he didn't know it, and then called out the door, "Qingyun."

Qingyun pushed the door open and entered.

Ye Lijue said coldly, "How is the Prince Xiu's Mansion?"

"My lord, one year after King Xiu passed away, the palace was taken back by the emperor. Later, I heard that the emperor ordered the servants in the palace to repair that house, but no one has moved in yet."

Ye Linxiu sneered, "He didn't go to repair it, he clearly sent the servants in the palace to look for things, luckily I hid the things elsewhere, otherwise he looked like digging three feet to find things, I'm afraid he would find them .”

Ye Lijue pondered for a moment, and then said, "Brother Eight Emperors, tell Qing Yun the location, and let him quickly fetch the things."

Ye Linxiu agreed, "That's right, I'm completely relieved when I hand things over to you."

So Qingyun was informed of the location of the other courtyard, and which floor tile was under the dining room.

Qingyun took the order and left quickly.

Seeing Qingyun leave, Ye Lijue continued to ask,

"Brother Eight Emperors, how did the emperor know that you have something that threatens his status? He didn't hesitate to imprison you."

Ye Linxiu also showed doubts, "I don't know either. I am very careful on weekdays. I am the only one other than the emperor, and outsiders should not know about the will."

Ye Lijue frowned slightly, making sure that no one would know about this matter, otherwise it would not lead to prison,

"Brother Eight Emperors, I was young at that time, and some things have become blurred. After you left, I entered the imperial father's bedroom. I only remember that there was no one else in it except the imperial father."

Ye Linxiu fell into memories, "That day, the court ladies and eunuchs were sent out. After the emperor told me about the incident, I was very shocked. I didn't recover for a long time. It was Taifei Yan who entered to deliver the decoction to the emperor, and I returned. God, seeing her enter the sleeping hall, the royal father's face was still a little sullen, and then I fed her soup and medicine together with her..."

Recalling so far, Ye Linxiu suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Ye Lijue.

The tone was a little unbelievable, "Ninth Brother, Concubine Yan has always been gentle and virtuous, kind and generous, and she is very good to us princes. When the emperor was around, he also praised her very much. She does not fight or grab in the harem, and she is wise and safe. It will be her..."
