The three people in the hall looked at him at the same time.

He Yunjie frowned immediately.

The Queen Mother also frowned and said displeased: "Feng Guanlan, do you know what you are talking about?"

"I send you greetings to the Queen Mother." Feng Guanlan came to the bed and bowed perfunctorily, "What I said is correct. Something happened to the princess tonight. It is obvious that someone did not want her to treat the Queen Mother. If she continues to stay here, something like this will happen. The situation will continue to happen one after another. In this way, I am afraid that the Queen Mother's illness will not only not be cured, but also become more and more serious due to the fright. If someone fails to guard against it and endangers the life of the Princess, Jing King Nan will definitely vent his anger on the Queen Mother, and then it will no longer be a question of where the Princess lives."

"you……"

The Queen Mother was so angry that she was about to get angry on the spot.

Chu Zhao took the first step and let go of He Yunjie's sleeve, then grabbed Feng Guanlan's hand: "Eunuch Feng is right, I really don't dare to stay in the palace anymore. I'd better go back to the palace to wait for Eunuch Feng for two days." Let’s talk to Mr. Xiaoge about finding out the people hiding in the dark!”

He Yunjie's face sank, his eyes swept over his wrinkled sleeves, and then fell on her and Feng Guanlan's hands.

When she caught him, she only grabbed his sleeves, but she went straight to catch Feng Guanlan. It seemed that she still trusted Feng Guanlan more.

Could it be that she knew Feng Guanlan long before she met him?

Feng Guanlan jumped up and down in the court all day long to rebel against him, but he could never find out the master behind him. Could it be that his master was the King of Jingnan who was far away in Yunzhou?

If so, how did they hook up?

He Yunjie dusted off his wrinkled sleeves, raised his eyes and said calmly: "Eunuch Feng didn't ask anything when he came in. He analyzed the problem so thoroughly that I almost thought you were a thief and shouted to catch the thief."

Feng Guanlan was stunned and immediately turned cold: "Mr. Xiaoge's words are a bit excessive. Why do you say that our family is a thief and shout to catch the thief?"

"Is it too much?" He Yunjie said quietly, "Eunuch Feng is the general manager of the Fourth Division, Eighth Bureau and Twelve Supervisors of the Inner Court. All the eunuchs and maids in the palace are under your control. It is easy to instigate one or two people to poison the princess. Besides, this pavilion I also heard that Eunuch Feng had been to the princess’s residence before the incident, so it’s not impossible to take the opportunity to poison her.”

Feng Guanlan sneered: "The little pavilion master knows how to argue. Our family is the head of the inner court, so the inner court is all members of our family. According to you, if the emperor is in charge of the world, the world will all obey the emperor's orders?"

"Feng Guanlan, you are so presumptuous!" the Queen Mother said sternly, "Is this the emperor who you can use as an analogy?"

"It was Mr. Xiao Ge who was trying to get hold of our family first. Can't the Queen Mother hear that?"

Feng Guanlan showed no weakness and argued hard.

The queen mother was trembling with anger at his arrogance and unreasonableness.

He Yunjie was still indifferent: "This is not a random speculation. The last time Princess Jingnan was assassinated in Mengyang, we entrusted the investigation of the assassin to Eunuch Feng, but Eunuch Feng has not been able to find out the mastermind behind the scenes until today. , do you think this is Jin Yuwei’s work efficiency?”

The Queen Mother's eyes lit up, and she immediately agreed: "Yun Jie's words are reasonable. If you, Feng Guanlan, are suspected, please stop interfering in this matter. You are not allowed to get close to Princess Jingnan again until the matter is investigated."

The three of them couldn't stop arguing, and Chu Zhao sat on the couch to relax and watch the show.

For some reason, she always felt that Mr. He Xiaoge was a bit aggressive tonight. Although his face was calm as usual, his words were sharp and sharp, driving Feng Guanlan into a dead end.

Fortunately, Feng Guanlan was a tough guy, so he was not suppressed.

But the Queen Mother is the Queen Mother after all. If she really decrees that Feng Guanlan is not allowed to interfere, Feng Guanlan will have to obey no matter how tough he is.

Chu Zhao could not let Feng Guanlan lose in this game, so he interrupted their argument at the right time: "I am the victim, shouldn't you listen to my opinion?"

The three of them were startled and turned to look at her.

The Queen Mother comforted her gently: "Ah Zhao, don't listen to Feng Guanlan's scaremongering. Tonight was just an accident. The Ai family will not let such a thing happen again."

But Chu Zhao still held Feng Guanlan's hand and said, "I have been in danger twice. I don't think Eunuch Feng is being alarmist. In any case, I have to go back to the Jingnan Palace to live. If the Queen Mother insists on letting me go, , why not put me to death for resisting the imperial decree, anyway, I will die sooner or later if I stay here."

"You..." The Queen Mother couldn't help but feel a little angry when she saw that she was out of luck and wanted to leave the palace. She could no longer pretend to be kind.

He Yunjie knew Chu Zhao better than the Queen Mother, and knew that she would never give up until she achieved her goal, so she had to compromise: "Now the palace door has been locked and cannot be opened easily. The princess does not want to live in the Queen Mother's Palace, and she is even more interested in Eunuch Feng." Trust me, why don’t you let Eunuch Feng arrange another palace for the princess to stay temporarily, and Eunuch Feng will arrange the guards personally, and let Eunuch Feng arrange the rest tomorrow, what does the princess think?”

Chu Zhao knew in his heart that even tomorrow, his aunt and nephew would still not let her out. Allowing her to move out of Ci'an Palace was already the biggest concession He Yunjie could make.

She turned her head and glanced at Feng Guanlan.

Feng Guanlan blinked slightly, probably having the same idea as her.

Chu Zhao knew something in his mind, so he softened his attitude and put forward his own condition: "It's okay to change the palace, but I don't dare to deal with the people in the palace anymore. Please allow the queen mother to allow my maid to come into the palace to serve. I have my own people here. I can feel more at ease."

The Queen Mother was not in good health, and she had already lost her strength after all this effort. Seeing her compromise, she nodded and agreed to her request.

It's just a few maids, so what if I give it to her?

He Yunjie didn't think so. He had seen Chu Zhao's maids before, and forget about the others. The one called Iron Hammer was tall and strong, and he would swing a hammer all day long and try to get someone to do it if he didn't get it. Two hammers, if such a person enters the palace, it may not necessarily be a good thing.

But the Queen Mother had already agreed. If she objected again at this time, Chu Zhao would definitely be entangled again.

Forget it, let's leave it like that for now. No matter what, we need to stabilize the person first, and we'll talk about tomorrow's matters tomorrow.

At this time, the palace maid knocked on the door and walked in with the cooked soup. The tense atmosphere in the room was broken, and everyone temporarily stopped.

Chu Zhao took the pills prescribed by Chen Yuanfen, and his stomach pain no longer disappeared, but in order to appear real, he still drank a bowl of bitter medicine.

The palace maid took the empty bowl and stepped away. Feng Guanlan stepped forward to help her sit on the edge of the bed, and knelt down to put on her shoes for her.

He Yunjie looked at Feng Guanlan's big, well-joined hands holding Chu Zhao's slender ankles. His calm face finally showed a hint of movement, and his phoenix eyes narrowed slightly to hide his unknown emotions.

He is a dead eunuch.

This is how eunuchs serve people.

He Yunjie told himself this in his heart, although he himself didn't know why he cared about this.
