Chapter 228 Embed in the Vortex

Since it was decided to investigate the truth about the death of the little prince, Han You immediately began to act, but all this was only going secretly.

For convenience, and in case something is not related to Yan Yunxiu, at the urging of Han Youyanzhi, Yan Yun took Xiuxiu north to Yizhou to take office. After Yan Yunxiu left, the first thing Han You did was to send someone to invite Ming invincible over.

After the Guangling Rebellion, the National Temple was destroyed and was not rebuilt. The identity of the invincible national teacher naturally disappeared. Now he is happily leading the leisure of the governor of Jiangnan and taking Nangong Caining back from the south of the Yangtze River. Ming invincible was quite disapproving of the changes in the Han Palace: "Isn't it just a prince who died? The emperor is so young, and there is no problem to have ten or eight more. Why make such a big move!"

Han You almost didn't give him a stick: "The little prince is the bloodline of the Han Dynasty. He was sent by the temple. He died tragically for no reason and couldn't find the real murderer. Where is the face and prestige of the Han Dynasty?"

"Haven't the murderer been caught and now he is locked in prison? Whether he is the real murderer or not, just keep the royal face and majesty! Yi Asheng said, sister, don't worry about salting radishes and cleaning up. Let's go to the south of the Yangtze River to play. How happy it is!"

"Okay, Asheng, you are good at martial arts. You have worked hard during this period and went to explore the situation in the Duke of An in the evening. Yan Zhi, I have found out that the little eunuch who admitted to poisoning, his hometown wants Qizhou, and you also go to inquire about the situation there. Anyway, no one pays attention to us now. We act quietly, but we have to move more quickly. I'm afraid Queen Zhuo won't last long!"

Assignment, Han You also packed up some living utensils and moved into the Han Palace with sandalwood patterns.

The Han Palace has regained its peace, but without the queen, there is a sense that there is no leader among the dragons, and there is no clue in the chaos one after another, only relying on the head of the road manager to control it. When those concubines saw the absence of the queen's position, they added hope of soaring. They couldn't help but be a little happy. They secretly compared and flattered, hoping to get the emperor's blessing. If they can get a son and a daughter, they can also have a support in the palace in the future.

After the accident in the Han Palace, Le Yao also often went in and out of the Han Palace. Seeing Han You moving in, she immediately came to visit.

"Ayou, you should have gone to the palace to accompany the emperor's brother. Now is the time for the emperor's brother to accompany us!"

"A Youyuan also thought so. On the day of the accident, I was in the central hall, but the emperor didn't want to pay attention to us. Therefore, I went out first and just wanted to stay for a few days to comfort the emperor when he calmed down. Afu, I can hear that you often come and go between the Han Palace and the Anguo Mansion these days, and the affairs in the palace often help deal with it. It's hard!"

Le Yao shook her hand and said, "Don't be polite. After all, Afu is from the Han Dynasty. How can you stand by when something like this happens in the palace? Sister An Yue is not here, and Ayou, you are a newlywed, so you have to come in and help. Alas, Queen Zhuo was also confused and committed such a rebellious evil act. I'm afraid it will be difficult for the emperor's brother to forgive her this time!"

"Ayou heard that Queen Zhuo has not pleaded guilty so far. I'm afraid it's too early to make a conclusion whether it was done by Empress Zhuo." When Han You said this, he deliberately walked around Le Yao's side and looked at Le Yao's expression carefully.

Le Yao's expression seemed a little surprised: "How did Ah You say this? The purpose of the seizure of Empress Zhuo was the emperor's brother, and it was also a decision made under solid evidence. Does Ah You suspect that the emperor's brother made a mistake?"

"If a man is not a sage, there is no fault, it is irony evidence, the emperor's imperial decree, and there are times when there are mistakes. Why does Le Yao, like those laymen, think that the prince must have been killed by Empress Zhuo? How dare others say such words? If they say it, won't they disobey the emperor, but Han You is close to the emperor and said it without thinking about it to test Le Yao's expression.

Le Yao was woken up and suddenly realized, "Afu also feels strange. This Empress Zhuo has always been gentle and friendly to people. Which one in the palace does not praise. This time, he made such a noise and made such an unbelievable thing. It was really difficult for Afu to accept when he first heard it. But as the saying goes, people die for wealth and birds die for food, and those who become vicious and become as strong as iron for the sake of glory and wealth are not one or two in the Han Palace of the past dynasties.

Han You listened coldly, but saw Le Yao's sincere face, and he couldn't figure out whether she was from the bottom of her heart or confused herself.

"I won't talk about her anymore. There will be a day in broad daylight. Let's go to see the emperor. I don't know if he has recovered after so many days!"

The emperor seemed to be no longer angry when he first heard the bad news, but became anxious. This anxiety made him nervous unable to sit down. He always subconsciously rubbed his hands and kept wandering and paced in the hall.

"Ayou, Afu, are you here?"

"Brother Emperor, are you all right? Afu looked at it. It's much better than the previous two days. Now that it has happened, you don't have to indulge in it too much. It's better to summon up the courage to go to the court to deal with political affairs earlier.

Since the poisoning of the little prince, the emperor has never been to court again. This time, none of those admonishments consciously and interestingly advised them.

"Your Majesty, has Queen Zhuo confessed?" After only one question, Han You saw that the general manager Lu was constantly winked at him.

"Queen Zhuo?!" The emperor suddenly became angry: "This vicious woman, she will never confess. Humph, she thinks that if she bites her mouth and doesn't let go, will I kill her? Her calculation is wrong. In three days, even if she refuses to confess, she will inevitably go to the execution ground!"

Taking advantage of the emperor's fury and strode around the hall, the general manager approached Han You and whispered, "Mrs. Dingguo, don't mention the three people of Empress Zhuo, the emperor will be angry! Don't mention it, don't mention it!"

"Your Majesty, Queen Zhuo refuses to plead guilty, what if she is really framed? It's a small matter to kill a queen, but it's a real threat to let the real mastermind stay with the emperor!"

"The murderer has confessed, and poison has been found in her palace. Human evidence and material evidence are available. How can she be wronged? Besides, besides her, who would have the motive to kill the little prince? Humph, it's okay not to plead guilty and still want to blame others. How can this trick fool me!"

The warning of the general manager of the road is not unreasonable. When it comes to Empress Zhuo, the emperor can't help shouting. As for which one he is facing, he can't tell.

Seeing the roaring anger of the emperor almost on his face, Han You still calmly insisted: "Your Majesty, it is about Empress Zhuo, the owner of the Han Palace, the Zhuo family, and those officials who have been killed repeatedly. This matter must be careful!"

The emperor seemed to wake up suddenly and looked at Han You in a staring way: "Ayou, are you here to plead for Empress Zhuo today? If so, please leave the main hall immediately!"

This sober words made Han You more heartbroken. When did the emperor talk to himself in this tone? If you can't even listen to your own opinions, will the emperor still listen to others?

"Your Majesty, Ayou is also kind-hearted. Although Afu feels that Ayou is too worried, there is nothing wrong to be careful!"

After listening to Le Yao's advice, the emperor seemed to suddenly find that his words were too heavy. He slowed down and said, "Ayou, I've been a little restless these days, and my words are also abrupt. Don't pay attention to it. But don't mention the matter of Empress Zhuo. Three days later, he will be beheaded at noon. This is irreconsideable and has been decided!"

"It's good that the emperor's brother is fine. Ah You, let's go back. I heard that there are two new cranes in the Royal Garden. Let's go and have a look." Le Yao pulled Han You out of the main hall as she walked.

"Ayou, didn't you see the manager of the road keep wining at you? You are also ignorant. Now the emperor's brother can't hear the three words Empress Zhuo, let alone plead for Empress Zhuo. Remember it next time.

"Afu, do you really think that Queen Zhuo instructed the eunuch to murder the little prince?"

"Whether it's or not, let's not go to this mess! Let's go, let's go to see the crane!"

Han You is not interested in seeing any cranes, and his mind is full of the haggard face of Queen Zhuo in the prison. Empress Zhuo doesn't look like the so-called behind-the-scenes mastermind, but Le Yao, from what she said and did today, is not abnormal, and she doesn't look like the person who framed Queen Zhuo. Is it... Is Yan Zhi's judgment wrong?

Is there another mysterious hand? If this is the case, Han You is relieved. From the bottom of his heart, Han You doesn't want Le Yao to be the real behind the scenes!

Suddenly, I was a little confused, and a huge vortex around me had taken shape, but I unconsciously went deep into it.

At night, he rested in Huanxi Hall. Han You couldn't sleep all night. The faces of Le Yao and Empress Zhuo kept thinking about which one was real, which one was hypocritical, or both were real, but there was another face that was not in his vision.

After all, after leaving Beijing for several years, things have been wrong in the court. If there is really that hidden face, Han You can't find it now.

depressed, Han You really wanted to walk in the palace, but it was late at night, and their garden doors were locked, so he quietly stepped into the secret road, came out of the Taiye pool, and walked slowly along the lake!

After several changes, and suffered from the current catastrophe, the Han Palace has completely lost its prosperity and magnificence, and a few big red palace lights are also faintly like ghost fire, shining weakly in the lake.

The evening wind passed by, and the chill that invaded the skin made Han You suddenly excited. It was already late autumn.

Walking until the night was quiet, cold and sleepy, Han You tightened his tight jacket, held the broad sleeves in front of his chest, and then walked to the entrance of the tunnel.

But at this time, suddenly there was a noise from afar, and someone faintly heard shouting: "Catch assassins, there are assassins..."
