Eunuch Hong could see that Emperor Yuan was absent-minded. The secret passage drama had been played up to this point. Except for the two of him and the people who handled it, no one knew that Empress Chen was not buried in the Queen's Mausoleum, and Emperor Yuan would not be buried with her in the future.

It's a pity that the cunning Eunuch Hong sometimes guessed wrong. What Emperor Yuan cared about was not that the burial of the mausoleum was discovered at all. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. Zhao Lun did things in a hurry, but Yao'er and Qin Feng were never people who acted on impulse.

.

Leaving the funeral procession in front of all the officials today was completely unlike what they usually did. How dare they leave in such a grand manner in front of all the officials? Zhao Lun even shot and wounded the minister of Dali Temple!

Emperor Yuan's thoughts were surging, and he finally called Eunuch Hong quickly after the burial: "Go to the Princess's Mansion, immediately!"

When Eunuch Hong was about to explain, Emperor Yuan reached out and grabbed his sleeve, which frightened Eunuch Hong: "Your Majesty..."

"Go in person!" After Emperor Yuan finished speaking, he pressed his forehead. It was inappropriate. Eunuch Hong was the closest attendant to him. It would be worse if he left rashly. "Well, you go to the princess's mansion with a few guards to inquire about the situation."

Eunuch Hong originally wanted to dissuade him, but when he saw that Emperor Yuan had figured it out, he was overjoyed and quickly took orders to make arrangements. Song Luo and Bai Beitang were closest to Emperor Yuan's position. Seeing that His Majesty and Eunuch Hong were whispering, they could be said to have their own thoughts.

Bai Beitang's thoughts were always lively, but Song Luo was worried. His son saw that Qin Feng and others were missing, and he had kept a straight face and said nothing since just now. Fortunately, this was a funeral ceremony, otherwise he would have thought that he was going to pay tribute to the emperor.

His Majesty's face looked up.

But no one dared to ask about the current situation. The prince, princess and son-in-law refused to mourn their aunt, which was really against ethics!

The royal family is supposed to be an example for the people in the world. If His Majesty does not punish, it will be difficult to quell the public's anger. Song Luo knows that even if he cannot go to court to see him in person, the old antiques from the Metropolitan Procuratorate will not let the prince-in-law and others go. They will definitely attend.

One book.

He could think of this, and Song Qingming was probably worried that Qin Feng would have a hard time in the future?

The fact was not as Song Luo thought. Song Qingming was not worried that the Metropolitan Procuratorate would intervene with Qin Feng and others. He only knew that from the time they walked into the dense forest, it would be difficult to see Qin Feng and the others again in East Vietnam. After this farewell

, I don’t know when we can meet again!

He was extremely melancholy. From the corner of his eye, he saw a group of guards leaving the place quietly. The worry in his heart was completely amplified. They should have been far away. I wonder if they would be caught by His Majesty. If they were caught back...

Song Qingming closed his eyes in panic, Qin Feng, Qin Feng, where is your wind blowing?

Besides, the team of guards rode away after receiving the order from the emperor, and returned to the capital in a hurry. As soon as they entered the city gate, they rushed towards the princess's mansion without stopping. From a distance, they saw the closed door of the princess's mansion. There were no guards guarding the door. The leader

The captain of the guard felt slightly nervous.

After dismounting, he went to knock on the door but no one responded. Thinking of Emperor Yuan's order, the guard captain simply climbed over the wall and passed by. But as soon as his feet landed on the ground, his hair stood up at the sight of him, and he was lying on the ground in pieces in the courtyard.

people.

Look at the uniforms they are wearing, who are they if they are not the guards of the Princess's Mansion?

The captain of the palace guards was horrified. The first thought that came to his mind was that there was a thief in the princess's palace. But being able to defeat so many guards at the same time was beyond the reach of ordinary people. After looking around in the palace, he became even more horrified.

Only then do human facts emerge!

For a moment, the guard captain who came with the order turned pale. How could he let something like this happen to him!

When the Prince Consort, Princess Jinhua, and the fifth prince disappeared from the capital overnight along with their close servants, the guards could only return to the imperial mausoleum with the tokens and letters they found from the princess's mansion.

Empress Chen had been buried, and Emperor Yuan did not return to the capital immediately. Instead, he went to stay temporarily in a separate courtyard near the imperial mausoleum.

In the dead of night, Emperor Yuan finally heard the report. Song Luo and Bai Beitang, who were standing together with Emperor Yuan to discuss important matters in the court, both felt the uncontrollable anger in Emperor Yuan: "You, say it again?"

"Reporting to your majesty, the guards and servants of the princess's palace were all drugged to the ground. There is a lot of property and clothing missing in the palace. It seems that the princess and the consort did it intentionally. I'm afraid... the princess and others will not return to the capital again.

, let alone return to the princess mansion."

After the captain of the guard finished speaking, he quickly bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty, please calm down!"

Emperor Yuan stood up slightly, put his hands on the table, and the bloodshot eyes were heavier than before: "Where is the Fifth Prince's Mansion, are you going?"

The captain of the guard was secretly frightened. Fortunately, he knew that the fifth prince left with the princess and the consort. After coming out of the princess's mansion, he went directly to the fifth prince's mansion to find out what happened. Otherwise, he would not be able to escape prosecution.

"Your Majesty, no one in the Fifth Prince's Mansion has been poisoned. It's just that according to the guards, His Majesty the Fifth Prince has never gone back since he moved into the Princess' Mansion. When he left, he only took a few people around him with him, but..."

Seeing his hesitant expression, Emperor Yuan had already lost his patience: "Speak!"

"All the belongings in the mansion are missing, as well as the clothes. I heard that the fifth prince asked the princess to take a lot of them away before going to the princess' mansion..." The captain of the guard wanted to say that they had intended to leave and had been prepared for it.

With Emperor Yuan's expression on his face, how dare he speak!

Eunuch Hong, Song Luo, and Bai Beitang didn't dare to express their anger. Song Luo even lowered his head and stared at the toes of his shoes. His Highness and the others were determined to make things difficult for His Majesty, but they didn't know what the letter was about.

Eunuch Hong's mood was even more complicated. He still remembered that after the last incident at the Imperial Temple, Her Royal Highness the Princess also left a letter to His Majesty and the Consort.

It's just that compared to that time, the princess had something unspeakable. It happened that the lady took action again, and the Marquis of Zhenbei and the previous son were disrupting the situation. It was a helpless move, especially when the princess was seriously injured and had to lie down for several months.

.

But this time, I openly and openly opposed His Majesty, just because of the Queen's funeral. This!

Eunuch Hong thought he was extremely tactful, so he didn't dare to say a word at this time, and he didn't even dare to raise his lips. The captain of the guard didn't dare to raise his head, and he didn't know how time passed.

This courtyard used to be winding and secluded, and it was especially quiet at night. But now this quietness is a big stone that weighs on everyone's hearts, making them breathless. Bai Beitang is even more upset that he should not force his way here. His Majesty originally summoned him

Just Song Luo.

Now it was really difficult for him to be the first to know this royal secret. Song Luo glanced at Bai Beitang who shot himself in the foot. How could he not know in his heart that Vice Prime Minister Bai had never given up on the fight for power?

"Go down." Emperor Yuan finally waved away the guard captain. The man did not dare to stay any longer and went out respectfully.
