Chapter 269 Conspiracy to Assassinate
Chapter 269 Plot to assassinate
A few days later, it will be the fourteenth day of the first lunar month.
Ordinarily Xu Ruyi should have entered the palace one day in advance to serve Empress Dowager Jiang.
However, the palace has not been peaceful recently. The Qi family complained against Xu Changjiao for many days, but finally chose to complain in front of Xu Yinghong.
Xu Yinghong gave them an answer, saying that he would reorganize the army.
In other words, with this opportunity, Jing Yu is really expected to make a name for himself.
On the day before the Lantern Festival, Xu Ruyi asked Jing Yu to stay at home and not to enter the palace.
Jing Yu hurriedly asked: "Is it really okay for you to be alone?"
"I'm just serving the Queen Mother. I can only accompany the Queen Mother to visit the lantern festival. It's not a big deal. But you, just stay at home and wait for the Prince Consort to take you out of the capital."
Xu Ruyi knew in her heart that someone was likely to die next, but Xu Ruyi didn't want Jing Yu to be the one who got into trouble.
So Xu Ruyi entered the palace alone.
As usual, she had to urge Xu Mingxiao to do his homework after entering the palace. After what happened last time, Queen Mother Jiang no longer doubted Xu Ruyi, and she could rest assured that she would take care of Xu Mingxiao.
But this time, after closing the door, Xu Mingxiao was a little unhappy.
"I have fulfilled the agreement I made last time, but you, Princess Royal, have broken your promise."
Hearing Xu Mingxiao's question, Xu Ruyi asked: "If it weren't for your mother-in-law keeping that little flower, how could such a big thing have happened? You still questioned me, and you almost implicated me!"
Seeing that Xu Ruyi was dissatisfied, Xu Mingxiao felt a little guilty.
After all, although he is the prince now, he has no one who can help him. The only one he can rely on may be Xu Ruyi.
Xu Mingxiao said: "Then how about we make another deal?"
"Now that the three consorts have returned, what else can you offer to make a deal with me?"
Xu Mingxiao said: "What if I can save your life?"
Xu Ruyi was immediately shocked!
Is it possible that something big will really happen in the palace?
Especially since Xu Mingxiao has been in the palace all year round and has much better information than her.
Xu Ruyi then asked: "What do you think of this?"
Xu Mingxiao replied: "As long as you can do me a favor, I will save your life."
Xu Ruyi would not fall into his trap easily.
"Then you have to make it clear in advance."
Xu Mingxiao said solemnly: "Actually, my father's side has already planned it. They are planning to take action during the Lantern Festival during the Lantern Festival. If you don't believe it, you can go with the eldest lady tomorrow, or you may turn into her.
Buried with him."
Not to mention, Xu Ruyi really believed what he said.
Because she also predicted that Queen Mother Jiang would not survive the new year.
"You keep talking."
"If you don't believe it, you can leave with her tomorrow. If you want to cooperate, I have a way to let you stay in the East Palace, but the condition is that you must take advantage of the chaos to send me and my mother and concubine away from the capital."
Xu Ruyi confirmed: "You mean - they plan to change the prince, so they are planning to attack the eldest lady tomorrow? Then after they succeed, you will soon suffer!"
Xu Mingxiao nodded: "That is indeed the case, so my only bet now is to ensure that nothing happens to you. Of course, you also have to keep me safe. I have a hand in the palace now. If you don't take me
If you are sent out of the capital by the palace, someone will definitely expose your crime, and no one will be able to get away with it by then!"
Xu Ruyi sneered: "You have learned how to use both soft and hard tactics. It seems that you have learned this art of war in vain!"
