Chapter 462 Grief

Concubine An Xian's palace was in trouble, and Princess Rui wanted to bring a group of ladies to help. Princess Dingyuan couldn't refuse.

 She was so happy when she saw Ling Chu suddenly appearing in the palace. But he didn't expect to see the queen and her men coming to catch him.

Lingchu was an unmarried girl after all, and the princess wanted to keep her far away. But the other ladies didn't leave, so it was hard for her to take Ling Chu back at this time.

 The mother and daughter could only stand outside the bedroom with a group of ladies.

Although everyone around her was whispering, in order to let everyone know that she was framed by the queen, Concubine An Xian suppressed everyone's comments with a few words of defense.

After Ling Chu glanced at the ladies with different expressions, he quietly glanced at the Jin Yiwei who was hiding in the dark, pretending to be a young eunuch.

 The other party nodded, turned and left.

He quickly turned around and carried a woman in his hand. She was the steward of Yinghua Palace, Grandma Cao, and the nanny of Concubine An Xian.

When Grandma Cao saw the group of ladies gathered around the door, she knew that Concubine An Xian's affair had been exposed, and her expression suddenly turned gloomy.

Ling Chu took advantage of the Jinyi guard to carry Nanny Cao into the bedroom and quietly cast a mantra on her body.

 Any person who has been given a mantra talisman will reveal all the secrets in his heart.

 Concubine An Xian and Zhao Chuanlin were seen lying naked on the bed by so many ladies and maids, and there was also the confession of Grandma Cao. No matter how much Concubine An Xian tried to quibble, she could not hide their adultery.

Ling Chu had no intention of staying any longer, so he found an excuse to change his clothes and left.

 The emperor's bedroom.

More than a dozen imperial guards blocked the broken coffin behind them. The sword in the leader's hand was pointed at Ning Chuyi, "Master Ning, you are so brave. It doesn't count that you colluded with the third prince to kill the emperor. You don't even have a corpse." Let it go?"

The crying Baiguan was startled by the sound of smashing the coffin. At this moment, he was surprised to see Ning Chuyi appear. But no one dared to speak.

Since the death of the crown prince, the domineering second prince has become uncharacteristically cruel and ruthless.

First, the powerful Minister of the Ministry of War was imprisoned on the charge of rebellion. Within a few days, news came out that he committed suicide in prison out of fear of crime.

Just one day later, a fire broke out in the Ministry of War's Shangshu Mansion, killing more than a hundred people, but not a single one survived.

Although the second prince received a confession from the Shangshu Mansion, the Shangshu Mansion set fire to himself because the Master had rebelled and knew that he would not be able to escape the death penalty.

Although no one doubted this on the surface, many courtiers had an idea in mind.

It’s just that everyone has not yet recovered from the shock of the extermination of the Shangshu Mansion. They are also worried about the fact that the Duke of Ningguo colluded with the three princes to usurp the throne and killed the emperor.

In the name of eradicating rebellious ministers and traitors, the second prince imprisoned everyone from top to bottom in Ningguo's mansion. The third prince was also imprisoned in the third prince's mansion. He did not know whether he was alive or dead.

 The second prince acted unscrupulously, and many officials in the court were afraid of him. Even if there were officials in the main hall who did not believe that Duke Ning would rebel, they would not dare to speak out in defense of Ning Chuyi.

No one spoke, but Kang Anbo stood up.

 But he did not speak for Ning Chuyi.

“Ningguo Gongfu has always been loyal to the emperor, but I didn’t expect that in this generation, a traitor like you would appear. Do you think that by killing the emperor, you can succeed in your attempt to usurp the throne..."

Ning Chuyi glanced at the sarcastic Kang Anbo coldly, and interrupted him directly, "The emperor is still alive and well, but you keep saying that the emperor is dead. Cursing the emperor so blatantly, what is Kang Anbo's intention?"

 The emperor is not dead?

The officials in the palace were stunned, and their eyes couldn't help but turn to the position of the coffin.

The coffin was smashed, and the body inside was exposed. Everyone only saw the bright yellow dragon robe on the body. But there were more than a dozen forbidden soldiers blocking his face, and his face could not be seen.

Standing in doubt, Kang Anbo sneered, "The emperor is not dead? Do you think that the Second Highness and all the officials are blind?"

Ning Chuyi frowned and ignored Kang Anbo's words.

Turning his head to look at the coffin, he just stepped forward when the second prince's sinister voice sounded behind him.

 “Come here, catch Master Ning, this rebellious minister and traitor!”

As soon as the second prince's order was given, a group of forbidden soldiers armed with bows and arrows rushed in from the entrance and window of the hall. Prince Rui hurried over and frowned, "Your Highness, wait a minute!"

 The second prince looked at Prince Rui with a gloomy face, "I wonder what your uncle meant by stopping him?"

Prince Rui looked directly at the second prince's face, "Your Highness, I seem to have just heard that Lord Ning said that the emperor is not dead?"

The second prince's heart tightened, "Uncle, how can you believe such ridiculous words! Although His Highness also hopes that my father is still alive, there is no resurrection after death."

Ning Chuyi ignored the soldiers holding bows and arrows pointing at him, and only said quietly, "May I ask King Rui, have you seen the emperor's body?"

Prince Rui frowned. Although he was suspicious of the emperor's death, he really hadn't seen his body. When he received the news and hurried to the palace, Concubine An Xian was holding the emperor's body.

Sometimes she cries in grief, sometimes she mutters to herself. If anyone comes near, she will cry and shout.

According to the imperial doctor, Concubine An Xian couldn't bear the shock of the emperor's death, so she didn't allow anyone to get close to her.

If I am stimulated again, I am afraid that I will go crazy with gain and loss.

 Wang Rui saw that Concubine An Xian was really crazy and was not allowed to get close to her. He only took a quick look and found out that the Queen Mother had fainted, so he hurried to Cining Palace.

Before the Queen Mother regained consciousness, the Second Prince came to him again looking embarrassed. It was said that the emperor's death was too sudden, and all the officials were panic-stricken, so they could only ask him to come forward to shock him.

Prince Rui didn't want to see the country shake, so he had to comfort the courtiers and help the second prince handle the government affairs.

 Later, the emperor had been buried in the coffin.

The second prince glanced at Prince Rui's thoughtful face, turned around and looked at Ning Chuyi, sneering, "You said the emperor is still alive, then tell me who is in the coffin?"

Ning Chuyi looked directly at him, "That's a good question. The Emperor is obviously not dead, but I also want to know who died and still wanted to be the father of His Highness."

"you…"

Seeing that the second prince looked like he wanted to chop Ning Chuyi with a knife, Prince Rui immediately walked towards the coffin.

The dozen or so Imperial Guards blocking the coffin looked at the second prince in embarrassment.

All the officials in the palace looked at each other in confusion. Just when everyone thought that the second prince would let the imperial army stop Prince Rui, they saw him waving his hand to signal them to get out of the way.

 Wang Rui didn’t show any emotion on his face, but his heart sank.

Without the obstruction of the imperial guards, his sight fell straight to the ground.

 The heavy coffin was smashed into large and small pieces, and a body dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe lay on it.

 Everyone’s eyes fell on the corpse’s face.

By chance, a piece of wood blocked his face.

 Wang Rui stepped forward heavily and squatted down.

 Slowly stretch out your hand.

Every official in the palace stared at Prince Rui's movements for a moment, and some people held their breath unknowingly.

No one can explain how he feels at this moment. He hopes that the emperor is still alive, but also feels that the emperor's mourning hall has been built. This is too ridiculous.

 As the wood pieces were slowly opened, King Rui closed his eyes sadly when he saw the familiar dragon's face.
