Daughter of the Prince of Rebirth

Chapter 899 The Grand Finale (35)
No one dared to disobey the emperor's order. It is well known that the prince cannot leave the East Palace, but a person suddenly appeared beside the rockery and said that he was the prince. The deputy commander of the guards did not believe it, and it was reasonable.

Murong Yu Yangchen sneered, the deputy commander of the guards was really eloquent, and with just a few words, he was easily removed from the crimes he committed next.

Outside the door, the eunuch's characteristic high-pitched voice sounded: "Report to the emperor, the eunuch who serves His Highness the Crown Prince, the guards will bring it here!"

"Bring it in!" The emperor's eyes were gloomy and his tone was cold.

The door opened, and two eunuchs and several guards walked in: "See the emperor, queen, His Royal Highness, Prince Chuxuan, Princess Chuxuan..."

The guards were tall, with stern faces, and there was nothing unusual about them, but the two eunuchs had bruised noses and swollen faces, and their clothes were a little tattered. Through the cracked openings, the scars all over their bodies could be seen faintly, obviously they had been severely beaten.

The emperor frowned tightly, his face gloomy: "What's the matter with you two?"

"Back to the emperor, the servants are..." The eunuch quietly raised his eyes to look at Ouyang Yechen. Ouyang Yechen was angry in his heart, and subconsciously stared at the eunuch fiercely. Hurt..."

"Wherever I hit, I got hurt all over my body." It's no wonder that someone believed such a lie full of loopholes.

"I hit it... I hit it..." The eunuch's eyes rolled sharply, thinking about the best reason.

"Who made you look like this?" The emperor didn't have the patience to listen to their lies, and asked directly what he wanted to know.

"Return to the emperor, don't care about His Highness the Crown Prince's affairs, it's the servants who made His Highness angry..." The eunuch's terrified answer has already silently explained that it was the Crown Prince Ouyang Yechen who beat them up like this.

"What's going on?" The emperor looked at Ouyang Yechen and asked him.

"They wanted to poison my son, but my son resisted!" The eunuch wanted to kill him cruelly, but of course he would not let him go.

The emperor's eyes narrowed in an instant, and chills shot out from the bottom of his eyes: "Is there such a thing?" A little eunuch actually poisoned the prince, it was really daring, and he was so impatient.

"Back to the emperor, the servants just persuaded the prince to eat, they didn't poison the prince, really didn't..." The eunuch seemed to be frightened by the prince's words, and his body kneeling on the ground was trembling with fear and sincerity.

The emperor's sharp eyes turned to the guards: "Did the prince call for help when he was in the East Palace!" Hearing the master's call for help and ignoring it is a dereliction of duty, and it can be thrown into a prison at least, or beheaded at worst.

"Going back to the emperor, when I was guarding in a humble position, I only heard the prince scolding and beating the eunuchs, but I didn't hear the prince shouting for help!" The guards have lived in the palace for a long time, so they naturally know the seriousness of the matter. The master shouted for help, but they were indifferent. One, in order to save their lives, they must make changes based on the facts and turn the confession in their favor.

After the eunuchs walked into the room, there were reprimands one after another, and the eunuchs begged in a low voice. One could tell that the prince was reprimanding the eunuchs. They were not lying.

"It's true that I didn't call for help, but I yelled that the food is poisonous, why didn't you go in and check?" If the guards had entered at that time, Ouyang Yechen would not have been forced to escape from the East Palace, let alone Captured as an assassin.

"I later heard that the eunuchs said they were willing to try it first, so..."

"That's why I didn't go in to check!" Ouyang Yechen took up the words of the guards: "Based on this sentence alone, you have already committed the crime of dereliction of duty..."

"Your Highness, please forgive me. Your Highness has been refusing to eat. His body has been starved to death. The lowly officials can't bear it. Therefore, when the eunuch advised His Highness to eat, he didn't go in to check..."

Ouyang Yechen smiled coldly: "In this way, the eunuch poured poison on me, but I refused to drink it, so it's my fault..."

"Your Highness, calm down, the humble officials don't know that it is poison..."

There was a slight knock on the door, and the imperial physician came over with the food: "My Majesty, I have checked carefully with several imperial physicians. The food in the Eastern Palace is normal, not poisonous, and did not put anything else!"

"It's impossible!" Ouyang Yechen's deep eyes narrowed slightly: "They must have changed the food after I left!" The eunuch and the guards were accomplices, so they didn't stop the eunuch from murdering him.

"Your Highness, the slaves never thought of harming you, they really didn't!" The imperial physician's appraisal, the eunuch's panic explanation, silently proved that the eunuch did not murder Ouyang Yechen, and it was true that Ouyang Yechen punished and beat and scolded the eunuch.

The imperial physician's eyes sank, and he hesitated for a moment: "My Majesty, I consulted the medical books and learned that if people live in depression for a long time, they will be mentally anxious and tense. If there is an emergency, the long-term tension will break, It’s going to do very extreme things.”

Ouyang Yechen was locked up in the East Palace by the emperor's order. The dignified Prince Qingsong was guarded by the guards every day. He was not allowed to go here or there. The tense string in my heart broke and went to extremes. It is not impossible to assassinate the emperor secretly.

"The imperial physician thinks it was Bengong who assassinated the emperor?" Ouyang Yechen's tone was so cold that it made people feel as if they were in an ice cellar in the twelfth lunar month.

"The minister was just talking about his illness, and he didn't mean to accuse His Highness!" If the assassin was really Ouyang Yechen, the imperial physician would have helped him. He did the assassination because of his illness and nervousness, and it was not intentional. Even if he was convicted, he would be given a lighter punishment.

Ouyang Yechen snorted coldly: "The current situation in Qingsong is somewhat turbulent. Only when the father is safe can the overall situation be stabilized. If the father dies suddenly, Qingsong will fall into turmoil again. No matter how stupid I am, I will not Killing the emperor, destroying the city wall..."

Everyone's thoughts sank in an instant. The current crown prince is the crown prince, and the emperor trusts him very much. After a hundred years, he will definitely be the king of a country in Qing Dynasty. There is really no need to kill his father to seize the throne...

"My Majesty, Prince Rui has returned with the Jade Dragon in victory!" The eunuch's characteristic high-pitched voice sounded outside, and the emperor's gloomy complexion softened slightly: "Xuan!"

"Prince Xuanrui is here!" The eunuch's voice echoed inside and outside the palace. Ouyang Yeyi, dressed in black, strode into the imperial study room. The guards behind him were holding a tray with a It was a sandalwood box with a small lock on it, and a paper seal unique to Gaoyan Kingdom, which showed that the wooden box had never been opened.
