[Red Mansion] Ronghua Road of Mrs. Hou's Mansion

After thinking for a long time, Sister Feng let out a sigh of relief, "I see."

"What do you know?" Unknowingly, Gu Xingchi was only one step away from her.

Sister Feng raised her eyebrows and smiled, "The person who assassinated you was arranged by the empress."

Gu Xingchi didn't deny it, "Although the queen doesn't want to kill me in a hurry, what's the difference between this and what she did."

Sister Feng was slightly surprised, "It turned out to be him." The prince and the queen are mother and son. From the outsiders' point of view, the prince's decision is the queen's decision.

"Then why did they want to put you to death? They did not hesitate to offend Tianyan for this."

Gu Xingchi's lips moved, and suddenly he laughed loudly: "This is a big secret, only a few people know it, and it may cause death. Are you sure you want to know?"

"I..." Sister Feng was about to say that she didn't want to know, when he heard him say again: "However, it doesn't matter if you want to know, it's just a matter of great importance, and those who know about it should be those who are very close to me Man, in what capacity do you want to inquire about this secret?"

Sister Feng: "..."

Gu Xingchi raised the end of his eyes, his brows were flamboyant and playful.Sister Feng realized that she was being teased by him, she was a little annoyed, and glared at him, "I want to live a few more years, and I'm not interested in your secrets."

Gu Xingchi shook his head and sighed, "Well, after all, life is important, but I'm still very disappointed."

Sister Feng snorted lightly, thinking that what he said was cloudy, true and false, so it's better not to inquire too much.

"Since the Queen is the mastermind behind the scenes, why is it King Qi who is being punished?"

Gu Xingchi sneered: "It's just that I made a scapegoat in a muddleheaded way. I knew that with the Queen's scheming, I wouldn't just capture her without a fight. I just wanted to make things difficult for her and break her wings by the way. I have more important things to do when I go to Jiangnan, so I don't have to deal with her on these trivial matters."

"Small matter?" To be able to talk about the assassination so lightly, as casually as eating and drinking... Sister Feng was just shocked and speechless for a while.

Gu Xingchi nodded, seeing her stunned look suddenly felt cute, and said with a smile, "Yes."

The two found a place to sit down, surrounded by plum fragrance, and chatting and laughing not far away.

Gu Xingchi continued: "The Queen also took great pains to deal with the aftermath of her stupid son."

It turned out that after returning to Beijing, Gu Xingchi complained to Emperor Tianshun, and Emperor Tianshun immediately sent someone to investigate the matter secretly, and found the group of assassins, and found the badge of the Prince's Mansion on the assassins.After a rigorous interrogation, the assassins confessed that the prince ordered them to do so.Emperor Tianshun was furious, and immediately summoned the crown prince to confront him, but the crown prince would naturally not admit it and shouted that he was wronged.

Hearing this, Sister Feng smiled lightly, "Although His Majesty is very angry on the surface, in fact, he will not completely believe the confessions of those assassins, right? As for the badge, it is even more unbelievable. After all, as long as you have the heart, you can also fake it. Even stolen and snatched."

"You are right. Your Majesty does not fully believe that the prince is behind the scenes. Your majesty is very suspicious and does not trust others easily. There are countless people in the palace who are scheming and scheming, and so is the queen. No one will believe the queen's scheming Others will leave these loopholes. Even if she really wants to send assassins to kill me, she will not give them the badge of the Prince's Mansion, let alone give them a chance to tell the truth. The only way to say is that someone intends to get rid of me And planting the crown prince and the empress, this kills two birds with one stone. The one who has a reason to do so must be the crown prince's deadly enemy and someone who knows the secret, so your majesty will think that the mastermind behind the scenes is a certain prince."

If Sister Feng realized something, "So, your majesty found King Qi after searching all over the place?"

Gu Xingchi smiled deeply, "Isn't he the most reason to do this? He was brought up by the queen since he was a child, and he and the prince are as close as brothers. He has long been regarded by outsiders as the confidant of the queen and the prince. He naturally knows that the queen Kill me, plant it on the crown prince, and if the crown prince is deposed, the queen will naturally support him. He grew up under the queen's knees, and he is considered a half son, and he will have the best chance of winning the throne."

"Is Your Majesty so convinced?"

Gu Xingchi was noncommittal.

Sister Feng smiled, "I'm afraid it's not that simple? You also said that Your Majesty is suspicious. He might think that the queen guessed his thoughts and deliberately designed it this way? First, the assassin identified the crown prince, which aroused everyone's suspicion. Finally, after After some twists and turns, King Qi was found. This can not only exonerate the prince, but also create a pitiful image of the prince being coveted and framed. However, it is not surprising for anyone with some scheming to do this? Your majesty and the queen have been married for many years , why don't you have doubts about the Queen?"

Gu Xingchi nodded, "It's true that he doubts, but he can't be sure. The queen is on one side, and King Qi on the other. For him, this kind of hesitation is a kind of torture."

Sister Feng blinked and asked, "And then?"

"The crown prince and King Qi disagreed with each other. His Majesty had no choice but to send people to guard the two of them first, and then sent people to continue the investigation. I didn't expect that King Qi, who usually doesn't fight or snatch, has contact with many ministers, secretly Cultivate party members. However, this is understandable, but any prince who is somewhat self-motivated will do this, especially the crown prince. His Majesty knows in his heart that he often turns a blind eye to watching them fight openly and secretly, which can also serve as mutual help. The role of checks and balances. However, in the end, it was found out that an eunuch in His Majesty's palace had sent news to King Qi many times, and the way of sending the news was very subtle, and it would be impossible to find out if you didn't deliberately check."

Gu Xingchi sighed slightly, "Dare to put eyeliner around His Majesty, it's tantamount to spying on His Majesty, this has already touched His Majesty's bottom line, making His Majesty believe that he intends to fight for the throne and has planned for a long time. The anger in his heart is indescribable, and he didn't listen at all. King Qi defended and convicted him, if not for everyone's pleading, it would not be as simple as being grounded."

If you offend Emperor Tianshun, you will no longer be destined to be the emperor, and it would be great if you can save your life.

From a high-ranking prince to a prisoner, there is such a huge gap, and Sister Feng is also very sad.

"Are you sure, that little eunuch really belongs to King Qi?"

Gu Xingchi's eyes were filled with sarcasm, "Is it important? What matters is what His Majesty thinks."

It took a long time for Sister Feng to recover her voice, "Yeah, after spending so much time and doing it so covertly, who else would it be if it wasn't King Qi himself? Even if he shouted wronged, His Majesty wouldn't believe it."

Gu Xingchi saw that she looked a little melancholy, so he couldn't help laughing and said: "It's someone else's business, so don't think too much about it. If you have time, you might as well think about how to deal with the queen. After His Majesty's ulterior motives hint, the queen will definitely hate you and me. The royal family."

Sister Feng smiled indifferently, "If the Wang family wants to save their lives, they can't sway left and right. It's the best choice to seek refuge with His Majesty. The Queen's anger has long been expected, and I have nothing to fear. I believe His Majesty has already seen it." The sincerity of the Wang family, with His Majesty around, the queen can't do anything to me."

Gu Xingchi saw that she was full of vigilance and fighting spirit, the corners of her lips curled up, and there was a pampering in her eyes that he didn't even notice. "It is also my responsibility to pull you down this muddy water. If I need my help, I will not refuse."

"Thank you, Lord Hou." In fact, she still had a question in her mind, knowing that someone would kill him and going to Jiangnan, what important business did he have?She would not believe the talk of looking for a genius doctor to treat the old Mrs. Jing'anhou.

Just as she was silent, she saw Ping'er trotting over and lightened her steps when she saw Gu Xingchi.

"Girl, Miss Qin is here, looking for you everywhere. Do you want to go back now?"

Sister Feng didn't answer her, but looked at Gu Xingchi and said, "She's here, do you want to see her now?"
