Poor Family

"Auntie, the third master is out."

In the small courtyard next to Rong'an Courtyard, Hui'er happily came back from the outside, and told Guan Xiuyan with a happy face that she had found out the news.

Guan Xiuyan just gave a faint 'hmm', without raising her head, and continued to embroider the handkerchief in her hand.

Seeing that Guan Xiuyan didn't respond, Hui'er hesitated for a moment and said: "Third Madam has not passed her filial piety yet, and it's really outrageous to occupy the Third Master and live in her room for nearly a month."

Hearing this, Guan Xiuyan stopped her embroidery work: "If my cousin is not willing, no one can keep him." She said, looking at Huier, "Misfortune comes out of your mouth, don't say those words just now."

"My cousin didn't feel sorry for me because I didn't hinder her. If you spread her words behind her back, she will definitely be annoyed, and I won't be able to save you then."

Hui'er felt a little scared when she thought that the third wife and even the second wife's accompanying room were kicked out of the palace, so she hurriedly said: "This servant will stop talking nonsense in the future."

"But, what are you going to do, Auntie?"

Guan Xiuyan also looked a little dazed.

What should she do?

In the past two years, she really felt that she still had a chance to win her cousin's heart, but now seeing her cousin and cousin getting closer, she knew that she had no chance.

In fact, as a concubine, her life is really good.

The cousin is powerful and proud, and she doesn't bother to deal with her. The aunt and cousin will take care of her because of their blood relationship, so let's live like this.

Guan Xiuyan gave a bitter smile and continued to embroider with her head down.

In the East Palace, the crown prince looked at Wei Yichen with a face full of horror: "What did you say? Say it again?"

Wei Yichen also felt that what he said was hard to say, but he had to tell the crown prince, so he had to bite the bullet and say again: "Your Highness, Princess Zhaoyang is not from the blood of the former emperor."

After the prince broke his leg, he had been using a cane all the time. At this moment, when he heard Wei Yichen's words, he immediately felt a little unsteady. Fortunately, he was close to the chair, so he fell directly on the chair.

"impossible!"

"Will not!"

"The emperor's grandmother has always lived in the palace, and the palace is heavily guarded. She has no chance to have an affair with a foreigner."

Speaking of this, the prince suddenly looked at Wei Yichen: "Is it a guard in the palace?"

Wei Yichen nodded solemnly.

The prince gritted his teeth: "Who is it?"

Even if it is not easy to be a prince, even if you have to face all kinds of calculations and fights from birth, as a prince, the face and honor of the royal family are still engraved in your bones.

The queen mother is the prince's imperial grandmother, and the prince can't blame him, so he can only transfer all his anger to the wild man.

Wei Yichen: "Does the prince still remember Ma Chuan?"

Prince: "Of course I remember, the old eunuch next to the emperor's grandmother."

Wei Yichen: "Princess Zhaoyang's biological father is Ma Chuan's elder brother Ma Jiang, and His Highness has also seen that Ma Jiang."

The prince looked gloomy, waiting for Wei Yichen to continue.

Wei Yichen: "It's the monk who often gives lectures to the Empress Dowager at Baoguo Temple."

The prince laughed angrily: "It's very good, it's very good!"

The prince is no stranger to that monk. Every time he goes to Baoguo Temple to pay his respects to the queen mother, he will meet him, and he has seen the scene of the queen mother leading Princess Zhaoyang talking and laughing with the monk many times.

When he went, the imperial grandmother was so careless. One can imagine that when he was not there, the imperial grandmother and the wild man probably lived a married life directly in Baoguo Temple.

"The emperor's grandmother doesn't care about the face of the royal family at all!"

The prince looked at Wei Yichen coldly: "Your family has always known about the matter of the imperial grandmother and Ma Jiang, right? And you have been helping to cover up all the time, haven't you?"

Wei Yichen shook his head: "Your Highness, I only found out about this matter recently. As for the elders in the family, I don't know when they knew about it."

The prince snorted and said, "Grandfather probably wouldn't tell Gu about this kind of thing, but you said it today. Tell me, what happened?"

Wei Yichen looked at the prince with a solemn expression: "Chu Yao is investigating this matter."

Hearing this, the prince's face became serious, and his hands suddenly tightened.

To mess up the harem and confuse the blood of the royal family is a serious crime of ransacking the family and exterminating the entire family!

Once this matter is found out by outsiders, he, the prince who has the blood of the Wei family, will definitely be liquidated. At that time, let alone the position of prince, he will not know if he will survive.

Wei Yichen continued: "In the past few months, Chu Yao has been staring at Duke Wei's mansion. At first, I thought he was just trying to take our faults. Anyway, everything we did was finished, so I'm not afraid of him staring at you. Unexpectedly, he was actually looking for Ma Chuan, and even sent secret guards to Baoguo Temple to find out about the Queen Mother's daily life."

"Just over a month ago, Chu Yao found Zhuangzi, where Majiang and Machuan lived in the suburbs of Beijing. Fortunately, Dongjian was there, otherwise something big would definitely happen that day."

The prince looked at Wei Yichen coldly: "Why did you tell Gu about what happened more than a month ago?"

Wei Yichen smiled wryly: "Because I only found out about this recently, my father originally wanted to solve Chu Yao directly, but unfortunately he never found the opportunity."

The prince stood up with a cane, and walked around angrily: "You guys made a mess of things, and now you think of Gu? Chu Yao. Chu Yao is not only the commander of the Supervision Department, but also the elder of the Hall of Reincarnation."

"The Hall of Reincarnation, that is in charge of Qing Jun's side!"

Wei Yichen also knew that if this matter was not handled properly, both the crown prince and the Wei family would be doomed: "Your Highness, now is not the time to pursue past mistakes, we must quickly find a way to solve the immediate troubles."

"After Chu Yao was seriously injured by Dong Jian, he has been recuperating in the palace. He may have noticed something, but there is absolutely no evidence. As long as we kill him, we still have a chance."

The prince forced himself to calm down, took a few deep breaths, sat back on the chair and thought about how to solve this big trouble.

"Does the imperial grandmother know that what she has done has been exposed?"

Wei Yichen nodded: "The Queen Mother is also very anxious, but the Queen Mother can't do anything in the palace."

At this moment, the prince's dissatisfaction with the queen mother reached the extreme. The queen mother made too many mistakes, which not only ruined the reputation of the royal family, but also put all of them in danger.

After his leg was injured, he was already in a difficult situation, but what the Queen Mother did was a fatal blow to him.

"Chu Yao must die!"

"The new year is coming soon. This period is the busiest time for the Supervision Department, and it is also the best time to act. It just so happens that Chu Yao was injured."

Wei Yichen showed agreement but was a little worried: "Chu Yao himself is good at martial arts, and there are many masters around him, if you want to kill him, I'm afraid there will be disturbances, and I'm afraid it will end badly. If possible, it's best to be able to kill him." Trap him."

The prince squinted his eyes, and suddenly asked: "I heard that Chu Yao is very good to Shi Shi?"

Wei Yichen understood the prince's meaning as soon as he heard this: "The eyeliner of Prince Rong's residence reported that Chu Yao was recuperating in Shi's room during the month of his injury, and the two should have a friendship."

Prince: "In this case, find a way to catch Shishi and use her to trap and kill Chu Yao."
