The daily life of the retired devil

Chapter 3 The Young General and the Tanuki Prince 03

A few people went all the way to the Hall of Renming, and as soon as they entered the hall, a majestic voice sounded.

"Prince, the older you get, the more ambitious you are? As a prince, you are the future emperor and a role model for a country, but you didn't come home yesterday? Do you know that if the queen mother didn't cover you up, How could your royal father let you go so easily this morning?!"

Xie Feiyan looked up, and smiled before saying anything: "What the mother said is that the child will pay more attention in the future."

The empress in the palace looked a little pale at this moment, and said again: "Where did you go yesterday?"

This was the question Empress Chen really wanted to ask, and the loving mother's heart in the beginning was just an impromptu performance.

Xie Feiyan was well aware of this, but he just pretended not to know it, and replied calmly: "Yesterday, before the key was released at the palace gate, Cousin Chen found the boy, and said that there was a madman in Xianglou that day, who was amazingly talented, and wanted to introduce me, so the boy I went with him, who knows that the madman will come later."

"Really? And then?" Empress Chen's demeanor seemed normal, but there was some anxiety in her voice, eager to know what happened yesterday.

Xie Feiyan pretended to be difficult: "Later, the child had a stomachache, so he went to Tianxiang Building to change clothes, but who knew that halfway there, the child heard someone talking in secret outside the wall... Logically speaking, the child should not pay attention to these things, but the person talked But, but..."

Xie Feiyan looked up and said, "Please step back, mother."

Empress Chen felt strange and frowned slightly, but she still waved her hand to make people back away a little.

Xie Feiyan said in a low voice: "My child heard what they said, it was about Yong'an Palace!"

Yong'an Palace?Isn't that the palace where the former queen lived?

Empress Chen was startled, never expecting to hear such an answer.

Back then, after the old emperor established a new dynasty, he occupied the palace of the previous dynasty, re-divided the scope of the palace, and gave it a new name, so strictly speaking, the current Renming Palace of Empress Chen is actually a part of Yong'an Palace !

And the crown prince heard someone talking about "Yong'an Palace", doesn't that mean...

Empress Chen panicked.

Today, the new dynasty has only been established for more than ten years, and the remnants of the previous dynasty in the court and the people are far from being eliminated. Therefore, in order to avoid various assassinations, the old emperor Zhao Fe not only seldom leaves the palace, but even sleeps every night. He ordered the palace guards to stay outside the palace and not trespass. He would hide a knife under his sleeping pillow, ready to violently kill people at any time.

Even the emperor who fought in the battlefield has such worries, let alone a noble lady like Queen Chen.

Therefore, after hearing the sensitive title of "Yong'an Palace" belonging to the previous dynasty, Empress Chen couldn't care less about her little thoughts of framing, and hurriedly asked: "Then what? Then you heard what they were saying ?”

Xie Feiyan said: "The two people talking, their steps are very light, their voices are very thin, they are either palace maids or young eunuchs.

"They hid in the alley outside the wall of Tianxiang Building and talked quietly. One of them asked, 'Now it's the critical moment, has my aunt made a move?" The other replied, "My aunt said, she has already done it. Since then, the longest The shortest three days in March, the old godmother will slowly feel heart palpitations, and finally evolve into heart-pounding pain and sudden death!'

"One said, 'That's good, the secret medicine that my aunt took is the last one we have, we must let the old woman die as soon as possible, but the time we left is really Is it enough? What if the old godmother dies but doesn’t have time to tell the dog emperor the secret? At that time, without the help of the old godmother, how can we help the master win the trust of the dog emperor?'

"One person replied, 'Don't worry, that old godmother is ready to strike today. With her ability, once she strikes, she will definitely destroy that person, and at the same time pave the way for our master. After she welcomes our master back to the palace openly and aboveboard, the follow-up matters will not be up to her!"

"One person said, 'That's good. Our master is the real master of this palace. What they did this time, they thought they were scheming and scheming, but they didn't think that it was returning the property to the original owner! It's a pity that the old godmother was so angry I am proud, I am afraid that I will not know the truth when I die, and it is a pity that we cannot see her angry and distorted face."

"One person replied, 'As long as we can regain the great cause of the country for our master, what is this pity?'

"One said, 'That's true, but are you sure Auntie did it?'

"One person replied, 'Definitely! Just wait and see, it may take seven days or two days, and the old godmother will slowly show heart palpitations!'"

At this moment, Empress Chen sat stiffly in the hall, as if struck by thunder, her face was as white as paper.

However, Xie Feiyan, His Highness, did not look up, but only pondered and analyzed to himself: "I never expected to hear such a secret conversation, so I climbed over the wall under the palpitations, and secretly chased after them, but who knew that the two Unexpectedly, he woke up, and quickly got rid of the boy. The boy searched for a long time but did not see him, so he had to give up. Later, seeing that it was too late, he found an inn to rest for a while, thinking all night, until dawn remembered I still have to go to court, so I hurried back to the palace."

Xie Feiyan paused, then continued: "Wang mother made atonement, I thought about it all night last night, and thought that these two people should be the remnants of the previous dynasty, and what they conspired should be the timing for the empress dowager to welcome Miss Gu into the palace. According to them It means that Miss Gu seems to be the niece of the empress dowager, but in fact she has been replaced by the remnants of the previous dynasty and even the princess of the previous dynasty. This time, she came back to the palace for revenge, and she has already done something to the empress dowager , so the mother, the child thinks that this matter should be reported to the father early before—”

"No!" Empress Chen screamed, interrupting Xie Feiyan's words.

"Why not? Eh? Empress, why is your face so ugly?" Xie Feiyan finally looked at Empress Chen, pretending to be surprised.

Empress Chen's lips turned pale, but she forced a smile to Xie Feiyan: "The empress is just, just uncomfortable..."

No, it's not "not very comfortable", but out of breath and almost fainted!

——The fake prince doesn't know what the two are plotting, so how could Empress Chen not know?

——The fake prince only thought that the old godly queen mother was the one who was murdered by the previous dynasty, but how could Empress Chen think so?

——The fake prince thought that the master in those mouths was the queen mother's niece, Miss Gu, but how could a person like Queen Chen think so simply? !

The term "the true master of the palace" is not worthy of a mere former princess.A princess has never been the master of the palace. Even if she enters the palace, she is only a mermaid. What waves can she cause?

Only an important identity like the prince or even the prince can be called the "master" and "return to the original owner"!

Empress Chen was furious in her heart. She never expected that she, who thought she was a praying mantis catching cicadas, would meet a yellow bird in the end!

She thought that she was holding two important chips in her hands, and she could throw whichever she wanted, but she didn't expect that she would get into someone else's trap from the very beginning!

No wonder.

No wonder she had watched her own son die back then, but in the end her servant came to tell her son to "come back to life".At that time, she trusted her servant too much and missed her son too much, so she thought that her son was not dead, but temporarily "holding his breath", but it turned out...

Yeah!

She said how could there be a resurrection from the dead in this world, but it turned out that the child was not hers at all, but a conspiracy by the remnants of the previous dynasty. It was a ridiculous stealing!

Empress Chen didn't doubt Xie Feiyan's statement. It was because she knew the fake prince Zhao Sheng too well, and knew too clearly that the fake prince would never know his life experience.

So even if Empress Chen did think for a moment whether this was a trap set by the fake prince, she quickly denied this guess, and followed this line of thought to suspect the "resurrection" of the traverser back then. Doubt the outstanding performance of the traverser over the years, doubt the true identity of the traverser!

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that the other party was suspicious, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that she was being tricked by someone with a heart, but soon, when Empress Chen thought of keywords such as "the secret medicine of the previous dynasty" and "palpitations", a basin of cold water Pour it down.

She felt chills all over her body, her face turned paler, her back was covered with cold sweat, her heart was beating so fast, it seemed to be palpitations... Wait, could it be that the secret medicine has taken effect? !

Thinking of this, Empress Chen felt her heart throbbing more and more.

Xie Feiyan saw that Empress Chen was in a bad mood, so her expression changed, and she quickly got up and asked someone to call the imperial physician.

Empress Chen didn't stop her, she acquiesced in the matter, but she held Xie Feiyan down again when Xie Feiyan proposed to go to the front to explain the matter to the old emperor.

"My son, you are still too naive." Although Empress Chen was worried about her own life, she quickly came up with a way to fool the fake prince, "This matter is about the imperial court and the imperial palace, and it is also about your father. The friendship with the empress dowager, if you go there recklessly, have you thought about what your behavior means? How will your father think of you? What's more, if your father believes you, it's okay, if he doesn't believe you , then the fact that you provoked the friendship between your royal father and your imperial grandmother will reach your imperial grandmother's ears in less than two hours, then have you thought about how to face your imperial grandmother?"

Xie Feiyan was stunned: "I just wanted to tell my father the whereabouts of the remnants of the previous court, but I didn't expect such an incident..." He sighed, showing shame, "Sure enough, my child is still not thinking carefully, and I still need to pay attention in the future." Learn more from your mother."

The flattery was good, Empress Chen showed a little satisfaction on her face, but she soon thought of her aching heart, and pulled her face down again.

"My son, although this matter is very important, since it is related to the harem, it is a matter of the queen mother's responsibility. For such a matter, let the queen mother handle it, so you don't have to think about it."

"But……"

"Okay, my son, don't think too much, go back to the East Palace, the queen mother will not delay your business."

Seeing that the imperial doctor was coming, Empress Chen didn't dare to let the fake prince know that she had heart palpitations, so she sent Xie Feiyan away.

Xie Feiyan was reluctant to let go, and after he had done enough to act like a good son, he left. On the way, he greeted the imperial doctor Liu who hurried over, and gave him a few words of advice before leaving the Hall of Renming.

After Xie Feiyan left, the system finally clicked its tongue.

【You kid made someone lame again? 】

The system watched such a good show, and secretly admired it: It has long known that Xie Feiyan has a mouth that talks about people and ghosts, but it just didn't expect this guy to be able to convince living people to believe nonsense!

Absolutely, this guy!

[However, illnesses are not something that can be said to exist. Are you afraid that Empress Chen will find out that she is not ill in the end, and you will find out that all these are all nonsense? 】

Xie Feiyan shook his fan and laughed softly: "Not sick? How could she not be sick? All ghosts and monsters who play tricks have a disease called heart disease. If you don't trigger it, it won't be there, but if you point it out It, it will expand at a terrifying speed until it completely swallows people."

"For a conspirator, the most important thing is whether others say she is sick or not, what matters is whether she thinks she is sick or not... So do you think Empress Chen thinks she is not sick?"
