The private prison where Cao Wenxi is now imprisoned is under her own palace. After Cao Wenxi's accident, although other people in the palace don't know what happened to her, they also understand that Cao Wenxi is afraid that there will be no more Here's a chance to stand up.

Cao Wenxi didn't pay attention in the harem at all, if Yunshang hadn't supported her after becoming the queen, everyone in her harem would have forgotten that there was such a person left in the harem.

There was a vague sound of swords and swords coming from outside the private prison, gradually approaching, Cao Wenxi's eyebrows moved slightly, but her body did not move, she was leaning against the corner, holding a handful of dry straw in her hand, and was fiddling with it. Starting with the straw in his hand, he braided a thick braid with the straw in a short time. With a completely boring look on his face, after braiding for a long time, he threw away the braid in his hand and drew a new straw.

The sound of swords and swords gradually approached, and after a long time, there was the sound of footsteps coming down the steps. Cao Wenxi didn't raise her head, she focused on the straw in her hand.

"You seem quite at ease." The man who came stood outside the prison door for a while before opening his mouth.

Cao Wenxi smiled, but still did not raise her head: "The Supreme Emperor has good eyesight, and today's His Majesty and Empress Empress are not idle people. The secret that took you six years to discover, they found out in less than a year. But you also have the same thing, that is, there is no other way to deal with me except to imprison me."

Cao Wenxi raised her eyes to look at the small window above her head, she smiled and said: "Since I came in, I have been counting the days to live, today, I should be here, the ninth Oh my god. I heard that when I was imprisoned, you were still in Yangliu Town, and you came back quite quickly. However, there is still one more day, do you choose to release me? Or continue to be imprisoned?"

After Cao Wenxi finished speaking, she suddenly laughed to herself: "You said, this world is really interesting. Thirty years ago, you tried all the tricks and wiped out my Cao family, but you should never have done it. You shouldn't let me go. Thank you, the Supreme Emperor, for coming to see me. I think this place is pretty good. I have food and shelter, and I can sleep well at night. I don't want to go out anymore. Or, please beg me You knelt down and begged me? The empress said she wouldn’t care about spreading those two things, they didn’t want to take care of the scandal you left for you, hook up with your sister-in-law, kill your brother and father, haha! The jade seal in my hand is It is ironclad evidence. They don't care, but can you not care at all? I don't know what the Queen Mother would think at this time?"

As Cao Wenxi spoke, her smile became more and more rampant.

Xia Huanyu had blue veins on his forehead, and Cao Wenxi, the king with fixed eyes, had a cold smile on his face: "Cao Wenxi, I have been threatened by you for more than ten years with these two things. Do you think After more than ten years, will I still be as defenseless as I was back then?"

Cao Wenxi's laughter stopped abruptly, and a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Precaution? The evidence is so strong, what's the use of making excuses?"

Xia Huanyu walked back and forth twice outside the dungeon. Although his voice was a little soft, it was very steady: "If your body is carried out from here, others will think, are you Cao Wenxi or Cao Shanxiu?"

"In this world, there has been no Cao Wenxi for a long time, and only Cao Shanxiu. Even if your letter didn't go out of the palace tomorrow, so what if the remnants of the Cao family spread those two rumors? Actually, I have never heard of it before. I was captured by Cangjue Qingsu, but during that time I went to many places, visited some old ministers who resigned after I ascended the throne, and gained a lot of useful things. The places I have been to after Jincheng, I found out some things that I am afraid that even you ignored back then... Do you know why I took Xia Houjing to Yangliu Town? You will never know, in Yangliu Town, you My husband and my elder brother once left a letter in their own hand." Xia Huanyu's expression remained calm, with a bit of determination in his eyes.

"From the day when Xia Houjing started the incident, I knew that although I tried my best to keep you steady all these years, I'm afraid you won't miss this opportunity this time. I passed the throne to Qingyan so anxiously, I left Jincheng in a hurry because I got an extremely useful clue, a clue that can prove that the jade seal in your hand is also a fake jade seal." Xia Huanyu frowned.

Cao Wenxi sneered: "The Supreme Emperor has always been good at inverting black and white and deceiving people. I have learned it all these years, so how can I be easily fooled again?"

Xia Huanyu did not refute her words, his eyes fell on the straw in Cao Wenxi's hand, and after a while, he opened his mouth and said: "Back then, you and my brother, the prince, were deeply in love. Did he ever tell you that Zhen Yuxi should How to identify it? Back then, the jade seals were made of high-quality jade, and the person who carved the jade seals was also the most famous Tian Guang. When the sun shines, you can vaguely see a flying dragon."

Seeing that Cao Wenxi was not moved by it, Xia Huanyu continued: "Many ministers in the court knew this method back then, but most of the courtiers left later, I deliberately concealed it, and what I know now There are very few people. But if I invite those old ministers back then, it is not impossible."

Cao Wenxi gave her hands a slight pause, but moved quickly again: "So what? The jade seal in my hand is real, even if there are some ways to distinguish the real from the fake, what's there to be afraid of?"

Xia Huanyu laughed when he heard the words, and his eyes were burning: "What is there to be afraid of? I have already found the real jade seal and identified it. Tell me, is the one in your hand real or fake?"

Cao Wenxi suddenly raised her eyes to look at Xia Huanyu, with a faint bulge of veins on her forehead: "Liar, you obviously tampered with that fake jade seal, and you clearly made up the way to identify the jade seal." .”

"Why are you so excited? Whether it's true or not, we'll find out tomorrow." Xia Huanyu pursed her lips, with obvious pride in the corners of her mouth: "By the way, I don't seem to have told you that your husband hid the letter in Yangliu Town What was written."

Cao Wenxi looked at Xia Huanyu with a bit of anger in her eyes, but Xia Huanyu didn't seem to see her, and laughed: "It was the matter of him letting me inherit the throne and helping him leave Jincheng. Sun Xiangshou, you have such deep hatred in your heart, do you think he didn't notice it at all? That's why he kept such a move, if you don't do it, I don't want to do it to you either. Let it go. Do you think that letter may wash away the stains of my past? Killing my father and brother is no longer valid, and now no one knows that you are Cao Wenxi, and no one will hear what you say."

Cao Wenxi didn't know whether Xia Huanyu's words were true or not, so her expression didn't reveal anything. The slightly trembling fingertips revealed some emotions, and she quickly retracted that hand into her sleeve.

"One more day." Xia Huanyu murmured faintly, "I will save your life until tomorrow, so that you can see exactly how you lost."

There was a sound of greetings from the guards outside, and a hidden guard hurriedly came down from the top, cupped his hands and reported: "The Supreme Emperor, Your Majesty has rushed over."

"Understood." Xia Huanyu agreed, staring at Cao Wenxi for a moment, then turned away again, turned around and walked up the stone steps slowly.

Luo Qingyan did not go down to the private prison, but waited at the door of the private prison, and when he saw Xia Huanyu coming up from below, he said softly: "I have something to do today, I want to chat with the Supreme Emperor, I don't know if the Supreme Emperor can free time."

Luo Qingyan didn't call Father Emperor, Xia Huanyu frowned slightly, sighed softly, raised his head to look at the blue sky: "The weather is fine today, let me go to the Royal Garden for a walk."

Luo Qingyan responded, and walked towards the imperial garden together with Xia Huanyu. The weather was getting colder, and there was a bit of chill in the air. Although there was sunshine, but the wind was blowing head-on, it still felt painful to shave. It hurts.

There are still a lot of flowers blooming in the imperial garden. Luo Qingyan never liked these flowers and plants, but none of them were famous. When he looked up, he only recognized chrysanthemums.

"You rushed over in such a hurry and said you wanted to have a chat with me, but you haven't said a word after walking for a while, so you just came to visit the imperial garden with me?" Xia Huanyu raised the corner of his mouth.

Luo Qingyan walked to the pavilion by the lake and sat down, raised his eyes to look at Xia Huanyu: "Sit down."

Xia Huanyu couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and sat down opposite Luo Qingyan.

"Cao Wenxi's matter was originally just a grudge between your elders. Chang'er and I should not have intervened. It's just that Cao Wenxi holds evidence that is not good for Jiangshan Sheji, but I can't just ignore it." Luo said softly.

"Leave this matter to me. You don't need to worry about it. I will solve it. You should worry about how to rectify the court. You have just ascended the throne. The imperial examination every three years can be changed to every two years. Xia Guo In terms of military strength and generals, there are still many deficiencies. Although the Yelang Kingdom has temporarily retreated, Cangjue Qingsu's temperament is not a person who gives up lightly. He will definitely make a comeback. How should we deal with it then? You and the queen You know how to fight, I admit it, but you are empresses, not soldiers, and it is really helpless for the empresses to conscript themselves." Xia Huanyu looked at his son with a smile, "I will solve the things that should be solved by me. Will take it to the coffin."

Luo Qingyan listened quietly, without responding. After Xia Huanyu finished speaking, he raised his eyes and said, "You loved Xia Houjing before, but to appease Cao Wenxi? You seem to be very fond of you, but you are actually making arrangements in secret. The reason is that if Xia Houjing does something extraordinary, he can catch them all?"
