The Empress killed the Crown Prince?
Of course not!
The Empress wanted to kill the Crown Prince, but she was not very lucky. She happened to meet Xiao Tianyao who was "passing by", and Xiao Tianyao saved the Crown Prince easily.
"You saved the Crown Prince?" Lin Chujiu was shocked when he heard Xiao Tianyao casually say that he saved the Crown Prince.
From Xiao Tianyao's standpoint, it would be extremely beneficial for him to let the Crown Prince be killed by the Empress. He can use this incident to suppress the Empress to death and charge the Empress with murdering her children.
Xiao Tianyao cast an angry look at Lin Chujiu: "Even if the crown prince is not born of the empress, he is still benwang's nephew." No matter how cold he was, he would not just watch his nephew die tragically in front of him, without doing anything.
Besides, the Crown Prince was now a useless person, and keeping him alive doesn't affect the overall situation, so what does it matter if he lives?
"I almost forgot that the Crown Prince is your nephew." Xiao Tianyao and the Crown Prince were very different in age, and usually, Xiao Tianyao doesn't care about his nephews, so she didn't think of this.
Xiao Tianyao shook his head. He didn't speak, and just went directly to the inner room to change clothes.
"Let's go." After changing back into the prince's court clothes, Xiao Tianyao glanced lightly at Lin Chujiu who was sitting in front of the table in a daze with her head propped up.
"Oh." Lin Chujiu responded and followed Xiao Tianyao to the office room in the front yard.
Inside the house, someone should have come in to clean it up, the smell of mixed food was no longer there, only a faint smell of ink.
Lin Chujiu took a look at Xiao Tianyao who had already sat down at the desk and was about to go to work, and said proactively: "It's getting late, I'll go back first."
Xiao Tianyao should see off the guests. If she was not witty, she would find it disrespectful.
"Mmm." Xiao Tianyao looked up at Lin Chujiu but didn't speak another word.
He thought that Lin Chujiu would wait for him to go back together, and he wanted to finish the paperwork quickly so that he could go back with Lin Chujiu sooner, but in the end… …
He was quite at a loss.
Xiao Tianyao silently put his eyes on the booklet. He was afraid that if he took one more look at Lin Chujiu, he couldn't help but strangle this incomprehensible woman to death.
Lin Chujiu saw that Xiao Tianyao was focused on government affairs, so she didn't stay any longer. She turned around and took the food box and went out. When she reached the door, she suddenly heard a "pop", Lin Chujiu turned her head and saw Xiao Tianyao's angry face, and the broken brush in his hand.
Lin Chujiu shrunk her neck, walked out at a faster speed, and thought to herself: I don’t know which unlucky ghost made Xiao Tianyao unhappy. According to Xiao Tianyao’s temperament, it is very likely that person will be miserable.
However, these have nothing to do with her. What she has to do now was to go home and prepare the medicines and equipment for the emperor's treatment.
Lin Chujiu walked out of the palace with a food box in her hand and returned to Xiao Wangfu in a high-profile manner under the escort of the guards.
The spy who had been watching her closely did not ignore her good mood. When she arrived at the mansion, the news spread that Princess Xiao was in a very good mood when she entered the palace. contemporary romance
Someone infers that Prince Xiao was probably in a good mood, and it must be easy to go to him to discuss the matter of the North at this time.
Of course, they only dared to think about it. When they entered the palace at this time, didn't they send someone to watch the mansion?
"Oh, it's a pity to miss an opportunity in vain."
"I don't know what Xiao Wangye means. All the regulations we submitted last time were returned."
"The grain sale to the North is a big piece of fat, who doesn't want to take a bite? Although the power is in the hands of Xiao Wangye, he must also give us, little people, a chance, right?"
"Xiao Wangye must be in a good mood today. If you go to him at this time, you might get some benefits, but… …"
They dare not!
A group of ministers kept shaking their heads and sighing, regretting that they had missed a good opportunity, but when they received the news that the Crown Prince had escaped from the palace prison in the evening, kidnapped the Seventh Prince and seriously injured the Empress, the ministers were secretly glad that they did not enter the palace.
If they enter the palace at that time, they might get involved in that bloody bath battle.
The Crown Prince's escape from the palace prison was a major event, the news must not be concealed, and Xiao Tianyao has no intention of concealing it. In the afternoon, he formally acknowledged the incident, severely condemned the palace guards in charge of the palace prison, punished the general in charge of the palace prison for dereliction of duty, and ordered the palace prison to be reorganized, so that the same thing will never happen again.
With Xiao Tianyao’s order, the palace prison was officially taken over by the Jinwuwei guards. The general in charge of guarding the palace prison was the Empress’s people. He was usually very low-key and cautious, and it was almost impossible to find fault. This time it was a failure.
The Empress was so angry that she almost fell off the bed when she received the news. If the injuries on her body were not serious, she would go to Xiao Tianyao herself.
"Xiao Tianyao, you're too much of a bully!" The Empress lay on the bed, biting her lips tightly, and swallowed back the curses that came to her mouth.
It took her nearly ten years to control the palace prison in her hands. As a result, Xiao Tianyao's slight movement destroyed her ten years of hard work.
"Imperial Mother, don't move around. The imperial doctor said that you almost hurt your lungs. You must not move around." The seventh prince, who had been held hostage by the Crown Prince and witnessed his mother's self-mutilation. He had a frighteningly pale face, and his small body seemed to collapse at any time.
"Little Seven, I, I hate it!" Her ten years of hard work were destroyed, how could she not hate it?
"Imperial Mother, it doesn't matter. While the green hills last, there'll be wood burn. The matter is not so serious. Now Imperial Uncle Xiao is arrogant, so let him be arrogant. When the people from the Central Empire come, he will not be arrogant anymore." In normal times, the Seventh Prince would never say such a thing no matter how angry he was, but today was different. Today he was not only angry but more afraid.
Afraid that something would happen to the Empress, afraid… to be left alone.
No matter how smart he was, no matter how precocious he was, he was still a child.
"Yes, the Central Empire, as long as the people from the Central Empire come, Xiao Tianyao will be finished. It's useless for him to do anything now." A stern look flashed in the Empress's eyes: "Little Seven, let someone send a message to Tiancang Pavilion, tell them that Xiao Wangye is going to openly sell grain to the North."
Anyone who was a little bit well-informed knows that 90% of the grain that the North purchased privately was provided by Tiancang Pavilion, and they earned a lot of wealth from the North through this. Xiao Tianyao openly sells grain to the North in the name of the country, to steal food from them. If Tiancang Pavilion can bear it, only ghosts will believe it.
After Tiancang Pavilion received this news, she didn't need to say much to urge the Central Empire to rush to the east quickly, to stop Xiao Tianyao's actions.
"Imperial Mother, if you do this…" The Seventh Prince didn't respond immediately but looked at the Empress in embarrassment.
He wanted to bring his Imperial Uncle Xiao down, but he didn't want to harm the country's interests. After all, he was the eastern's prince.
However, before the Seventh Prince could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the Empress: "Little Seven, you have to understand that if you don't pull Xiao Tianyao down, no matter how powerful the country is, it has nothing to do with you. Even if you lose some benefits, you can pull Xiao Tianyao down, so why not?"
Even if they lose some benefits, at least the country will belong to them… …
