Chapter 1064: Time is running out
Under the candlelight, Tao Yuxian also looked solemn.
Obviously, she also thought of the same thing that Hua Yaoting thought of.
Everyone tried their best to deal with the Taoist temple, just to pull down the third prince. But if the third prince really pushed the second prince out and acted as a scapegoat, wouldn't everyone's previous efforts have been in vain? field?
Fan Qingyao looked at the expressions of the two elders and felt heavy in his heart.
She had not thought about Baili Rongze's intention of using the second prince to assassinate her before, so she naturally guessed this possibility.
It's just that she can't interfere at all in the palace now, and there are too many pairs of eyes staring at this matter. No matter how anxious she is now, she can't act rashly.
If Baili Rongze had really had this idea from the beginning, what he wanted to see most now was to see her get into trouble, and of course she couldn't do what Baili Rongze wanted.
Of course, if things really come to that point, Fan Qingyao cannot really make Baili Rongze live so easily, otherwise he will really think that she is a bully.
The emperor returned to the palace, but due to health reasons, he immediately took a three-day break. The day after the second prince was sent to Dali Temple, the minister of Dali Temple personally investigated the matter. There was no response from the emperor. Everyone couldn't figure out what the emperor meant.
Unexpectedly, Concubine Liu Shu did not plead with the Queen for this matter, but instead walked very diligently with Concubine Han Xian and Concubine Yu for several days.
Inside Fengyi Palace, Lily looked at the Queen and said, "Concubine Liu Shu has been lying low in front of the Queen for so long, but now she is getting close to Concubine Yu. If Concubine Liu Shu knows that the second prince was sent to Dali The temple is all due to the Third Prince, I wonder if Concubine Liu Shu will be like this."
Empress Zhen Xi took a sip of tea and sneered, "Some people always think they are smart, but in fact they don't even know they are being used as a shield. Since Concubine Liu Shu doesn't care about her son's life or death, why should we eat carrots?" Don't worry."
Lily sighed, "I just hope that Concubine Liu Shu won't come back crying in the future."
“She has a good idea.” Upon hearing this, Queen Zhenxi placed the tea cup in her hand on the table.
When nothing happens, just push me to the side. If something happens, do you want to hug me again?
It’s better to just think about such a beautiful thing.
“Is there any movement over there with the Crown Princess?” Queen Zhen Xi asked.
Lily quickly replied, "I heard that the Crown Princess has been recuperating in the mansion since she returned to the main city. She probably hasn't figured out the twists and turns yet."
Empress Zhen Xi said, "With the Crown Princess's intelligence, I'm afraid she would have thought of it a long time ago."
Lily was shocked. This time, in order to annihilate the Taoist temple in one fell swoop, the Crown Princess and the Crown Prince had been planning to pull the Third Prince into the water. Now, seeing that the Third Prince wanted to push the Second Prince out to take the blame, the Crown Princess could actually sit in the palace. live?
If it had been anyone else, I'm afraid he would have been restless.
Queen Zhen Xi smiled happily. The more chaotic the situation, the more she had to sit still. Xiao Qingyao, the child, could still hold still at this time. I am afraid she had already started to think about the next countermeasures.
“What is the prince busy with today?”
“I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has just left the palace. Looking in the direction, I should have gone to see the Crown Princess.”
Queen Zhen Xi nodded, "They are all good." Since Concubine Yu had made up her mind to push the second prince to confess his crime, she naturally wanted to see them get into trouble at this time, and whether it was the prince or the Fan Qingyao, the more securely he holds it, the harder it is for Concubine Yu to laugh.
Fan Qingyao has been cultivating well in the mansion during this period, and the wound on his neck is no longer visible. He deliberately got up a little late in the morning. As soon as he sat down to have breakfast, he saw Baili Fengming walking in.
"Coming?" Fan Qingyao calculated that Baili Fengming would also come, and now he was not surprised when he saw someone entering the door.
Ninghan saw the Crown Prince coming and quickly bought another pair of bowls and chopsticks. Baili Fengming didn't say much and naturally sat opposite Fan Qingyao and had breakfast with her.
"Today someone secretly went to Dali Temple to report the Second Emperor Brother. All the evidence above points to the fact that the Second Emperor Brother took advantage of the prince's presence to secretly build Taoist elixirs and medicines." Baili Fengming saw the dish she liked, which was rolled up her sleeves. Married into her bowl.
Looking at his calm demeanor, it seemed more like he was chatting about everyday things.
Fan Qingyao’s hand holding the chopsticks paused. It was just as she thought.
From this point of view, Baili Rongze must be absolutely sure that the second prince will never return.
"Has the Third Prince started recruiting troops?" Fan Qingyao said as a question, but his tone was affirmative.
Baili Rongze indeed pushed the second prince out, but it also frightened the staff and officials who followed him.
Even if these people don't know that Baili Rongze personally caused all this, seeing the second prince's dust settle and Baili Rongze standing by, who is not chilled or afraid?
The only thing Baili Rongze can do now is to seize an opportunity and make a desperate move.
But when this opportunity will come, neither Baili Rongze nor Fan Qingyao can calculate it for the time being.
"Father has sent people to secretly inquire about Ji Hongliao's whereabouts." Baili Fengming reached out and gently touched Fan Qingyao's slightly frowned brow. That was her bad thing, she always liked to frown when things happened.
Fan Qingyao was startled, "You mean..."
Baili Fengming nodded and said, "I heard from Bai Tu that my father vomited blood when he was in the palace, but he suppressed the matter. Now, although my father is still recuperating, his physical condition has deteriorated." Unsatisfactory.”
Fan Qingyao has never checked the emperor's body, so naturally he cannot determine what caused the emperor to be like this. However, judging from Baili Fengming's words, if the emperor has been mentally depressed, he may not have much time left.
Fan Qingyao doesn't have much pity for the emperor's life and death. She is not a saint, and everything that has happened will not be written off in one stroke. However, she can use this to force Baili Rongze to submit obediently.
Didn’t Baili Rongze want to find a desperate breakthrough?
Now it happens to be right in front of you.
"I will let the emperor hide the whereabouts of the master." Fan Qingyao looked at Baili Fengming and said, as long as the emperor cannot find the whereabouts of the master, the emperor will inevitably become ill and seek medical treatment. It can't be hidden either.
Fan Qingyao still knew Baili Rongze's temperament, and now he was just waiting for the opportunity to act. Once he knew that the emperor's time was running out, he would definitely force him into the palace.
After all, only by deposing the prince while the emperor is still alive can he sit on that chair!
