After the eldest daughter was reborn, the whole family knelt down and begged for forgiveness
Chapter 258: Hidden Arrows in the Deep Palace
"Your Majesty, if you have no other instructions, I will take my leave now."
Looking at Lin Xun's hurriedly leaving back, Emperor Yonghui said to himself: "Strange, why do I feel that Huai Zhang is a little absent-minded today? Could it be that he is suspicious of me..."
Although Emperor Yonghui was an emperor, he trusted Lin Xun very much and never hid anything from him. The only thing he felt sorry for was this matter.
This matter was of great importance. If it weren't for the secret report accidentally discovered by the Qinglian Guards, Emperor Yonghui would not have known that there was another reason why his father suddenly attacked the Tianji Palace.
The reason may be related to his most respected brother, the emperor!
When the Tianji Palace was destroyed, the royal brother tried his best to protect the infant Lin Xun, not out of kindness, but out of guilt?
Emotionally, Huizong could not accept this truth...
In his mind, his royal brother is so kind and gentle, benevolent and selfless. There is no one in the world more perfect than his royal brother!
However, the secret letter collected by Qinglian Guards was in the familiar handwriting of King Tianji, which put Emperor Yonghui in a dilemma.
On one side was Lin Xun's biological father, the little uncle who had taught them horse riding and archery when they were young; on the other side was the imperial brother who had raised Lin Xun and was kind to them. Emperor Yonghui had never been so embarrassed about the matter of choosing a crown prince.
Torn between the two options of being honest with Lin Xun and sending the Qinglian Guards to keep the matter secret, Emperor Yonghui finally chose the latter.
He sent the Qinglian Guards to take the prisoner away from the Jijianyuan.
It's just that Emperor Yonghui has never been good at lying, and Lin Xun has always been alert and vigilant. Emperor Yonghui himself is guilty and afraid that Lin Xun will see through him...
Jiang Yinghe on the side said casually: "The prince must be worried about Miss Xiao."
"I just heard from the people below that something happened in Yong'an Marquis' Mansion today, and the prince went there in person to support Miss Xiao."
As expected, Emperor Yonghui felt relieved and said with great satisfaction, "He has finally come to his senses."
"Although Xiao Xuetang and Shao Shu were engaged before, fortunately they did not get married. If I personally grant them marriage, I believe no one in the world will dare to say anything."
"As long as Huai Zhang gets married and everything is settled, everything will be fine..."
Emperor Yonghui seemed to be talking to Jiang Yinghe, but also seemed to be talking to himself.
His figure was slightly hunched, as if his shoulders could not bear the weight of the country.
Twenty-five years have passed since the incident. The grudges have been resolved, and my brother has restored the reputation of the Tianji Palace after ascending the throne...
Now that we are enjoying such a hard-earned peaceful and prosperous time, with rivers clear and seas calm, why create new troubles?
Just think of it as, what happened to King Tianji back then, he was not fair to this child...
"Master, the emperor summoned you to the palace today. Is it because of the Qinglian Guards?"
The one who followed Lin Xun into the palace today was Han Guang...
Han Guang and Tian Shu are one bright and one secretive. Outsiders only know that Tian Shu is good at collecting clues, but they don’t know that Han Guang is also an excellent secret agent.
However, he was trying to find clues about the inner palace, so the actions of the Qinglian Guards could not escape his eyes and ears...
Three days ago, Madam Nan was arrested in the Marquis' Mansion, and the case was transferred to the Criminal Investigation Bureau. Xia Yan, who had been recuperating in the Hot Spring Villa, received the news.
Two days ago, Xia Yan secretly entered Kyoto and met some people;
A day ago, Qinglian Guard suddenly found an old letter written by King Tianji. When King Tianji wiped out the remnants of Tianxuan Sect, he found the letters between the late emperor, who was then the prince, and Southern Xinjiang.
However, the written evidence found by King Tianji disappeared; within a few years, the late emperor was involved in a bloody incident in King Tianji's Palace that shocked the whole country because of a dream.
Just last night, Emperor Yonghui recalled Xia Yan, who was recuperating in the hot spring villa, and asked him about some old stories.
During the day today, the Qinglian Guards took Madam Nan, who was using the alias Hong Liao, away from the Jijianyuan.
The Qinglian Guards thought they had done it perfectly and wanted to use Emperor Yonghui to cover up some truths forever, but they didn't know that everything was under the control of Lin Xun!
It was just Emperor Yonghui’s choice…
"It's just expected."
After all, even though Emperor Yonghui and the late emperor have different personalities, they are brothers from the same mother!
A dark light flashed in Lin Xun's deep eyes. He turned around and looked at the nine-story palace under the night sky, where the lights were charming. He said, "I have become kind-hearted these days. I even want to give him another chance..."
This is also the reason why Lin Xun will enter the palace tonight.
When Lin Xun heard that he was summoned overnight, he hesitated for a moment, but decided to leave Xiao Xuetang to the palace first...
He thought that Emperor Yonghui finally chose justice over the previous emperor.
But I didn't expect...
"Maybe it's because he looks different from other members of the royal family these years. When I went to the border, he also pleaded for me and truly loved me. What a pity..."
Lin Xun murmured to himself, a hint of complexity flashed across his deep eyes, but it was only for a moment, and the hesitation was instantly suppressed.
"The Third Prince will replace the Crown Prince to meet with the diplomatic envoys. The East Palace, which is under house arrest, must be informed."
Lin Xun gave the order calmly, without any fluctuation in his tone.
The Eastern Palace has been suppressed for so long, it's time to take action...
While giving instructions to Han Guang, he left the palace and rode at full speed to find Xiao Xuetang.
Lin Xun didn't expect that he was still a step late...
……
The fog on the street was getting thicker and thicker, and the surroundings became eerily quiet. The sudden appearance of more than a dozen strange, unkillable "people" made Xie Leifeng, who was highly skilled in martial arts, panic.
Having just experienced a fierce battle, those people looked as stiff as puppets, but they seemed very smart. After Xiao Yu spoke, they directly extinguished the torches in the hands of Xie Leifeng and others.
The guards of the Xie family were killed or injured. Xie Leifeng held a spear in his hand and repelled the puppets who were trying to get close. He said to Xiao Yu and Xie's mother and son: "I will stop them and protect your mother. Go first!"
Xiao Yu only knew some self-defense skills, and he was injured, so he did not hesitate to help Xie, whose legs were weak, and leave.
But the fog was so thick that they couldn't tell the direction at all. In addition, the puppets around them seemed to have consciousness and only attacked them and their son...
At the critical moment, Xiao Xuetang appeared with a lantern!
The lantern in her hand emitted a warm yellow glow, but the flame was only the size of a soybean, and those ferocious puppets did not dare to approach her.
Xiao Xuetang walked past the three of them without changing his expression and said, "There is something wrong with this fog. Someone is secretly controlling these puppets. Tianshu has already dealt with him. Come with me."
Hearing Xiao Xuetang's voice, Xiao Yu and others seemed to have seen a savior. However, the next moment, an arrow suddenly shot out from the dark with the force of breaking through the air, towards Xiao Xuetang's back!
