Chapter 258

Xiyan nodded, she had never seen those empresses in the harem, she didn't know about them, so there was such a thing.

"Emperor Jing has been in power for almost 20 years. His Highness the Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince are fighting with each other. Have you ever seen great turmoil? He is also a talented man. How could he not know how to guard against the Huns? We small people have not learned the art of the emperor, how can we know those things? I heard..."

Hongyu leaned into Xiyan's ear: "The current prince is not born weak, but he didn't know what he drank and almost died. Later, he came back to life, but he just turned into the sickly appearance he is now."

Xiyan raised her head, handed the bowls and chopsticks with almost nothing left to Hongyu, and wiped her mouth with her hand, obviously not very interested in this matter. She has always been indifferent to Xia Mingxu's affairs.

"The seventh prince is also your prince."

Hongyu stared at Xiyan, and suddenly stopped talking.

When Xi Yan heard him mention Xia Yebai, she couldn't help but raise her head, looking at her with earnest eyes.

Hongyu smiled, and put the bowl aside: "Look, look, you're interested in Xia Yebai as soon as it is mentioned, I thought you were angry, and you won't care about his affairs from now on. "

Seeing what Hongyu said, Xiyan snorted coldly, leaned her right shoulder on the bed, and closed her eyes.

"Your prince's face was not ruined by nature, let alone a fool."

Hongyu stared at Xiyan who was leaning on the bed, and only spoke half of her words.

Xi Yan's eyelashes trembled slightly. She knew a little about this matter. On the day of the wedding, there were people discussing it outside. It seemed that because of a fire ten years ago, the Prime Minister's Mansion was inextricably linked with the Prince's Royal Highness faction. Although she did not know the reasons for the poisoning of the prince, she still knew about it. I heard that it was just a child who had a fever. After taking the medicine, it would be fine after a few days of rest, but after taking the medicine, His Highness’ condition worsened Yes, and later I heard that he was poisoned. At that time, this incident was quite big, and several imperial doctors in the imperial hospital were executed.

As for Xia Yebai, of course she knew that his face was not born ruined, his face was never ruined at all, but why did he keep wearing a mask?Why was she so stupid then?Which idiot would say he was disfigured and wear a mask if he wasn't disfigured, idiot?He was just pretending to be crazy and stupid, saying that he would become dumb after looking at his face, everything was a lie.

In the past, he was humiliated every day. Someone must have wanted to take off the mask on his face. It was rumored that he was extremely ugly, and he was completely different from what she saw. Why didn't she think of it at the time? People have seen his true face, his skills must be excellent, no wonder he was able to avoid his own surprise attack on the day of his wedding, now that he thinks about it, there is a reason for everything.

"Ten years ago, we were all young, so we naturally didn't know about those things, but those who were older than us would understand. Several major events happened in Liuli that year. It’s Lingtong, I’ve heard other people say these things, so I shouldn’t be wrong.”

Hongyu sat in front of Xiyan, diverted her attention, and carefully cleaned the wounds on her body while talking. On the snow-white skin, there were big five-finger marks, such a big palm, it should not be Liuli's man The so-called, it seems that the wounds on the shoulders of the captives of the Huns have been completely opened, and blood is flowing continuously. You can faintly see the dense white bones stained red with blood. Hongyu frowned, feeling extremely distressed.

"The first thing is that His Royal Highness, who just passed his tenth birthday, suddenly developed a high fever. The high fever did not go away, and he was suddenly poisoned. Although he finally saved his life, he turned into the sickly appearance he is now. The second The thing is that a courtyard in the palace caught fire, and the seventh prince was bizarrely disfigured on the second day, and turned into the stupid and insane appearance he is now, but you don't know that the emperor's most beloved son was the seventh prince, not now. As for the third incident, it is strange to say that since the fire, the emperor hadn’t had an early court for half a month, and the most favored seventh prince was suddenly conferred the title of Prince Gong, sent out of the palace, and lived in the current palace. Wang Fu, tell me, did a lot of great things happen that year?"

Xiyan pursed her lips tightly, always feeling that something was wrong, but now her whole body was still hurting, just thinking about it would give her a severe headache.

Hongyu put down the towel, and stretched out her hands to gently rub Xiyan's temples on both sides: "If you think about it, you will get a headache, so don't think about it."

Hongyu sighed softly: "Although the emperor is the biggest in the palace, he is not the master who can do everything. In the harem, as long as there are women, there will always be wars. If Emperor Jing really cherishes the beauty, he will not realize it." There are actually three thousand beauties in the harem, those maids and eunuchs, none of them are lifeless, or those princes, if they are not favored, how can they be proud of the master? Those are the senior eunuchs and maids in the palace They can all be ridden on their heads, and those masters who are high above them can kill whoever they want, but in the end they get away with it, and when something happens, people will naturally be watching."

These words are really caring. In the imperial palace, women compete for favor, men compete for power, and fight against each other. In the end, aren't those slaves the unlucky ones who die in the end?Although Xia Yebai was oppressed everywhere outside the palace, those ordinary people just wanted to follow him to vent their anger and prestige, who would really dare to kill him?

"At the beginning, the emperor sent the Seventh Prince out of the palace, but he told Concubine Li to take good care of him. Who is Concubine Li, no matter how much she hates your prince, she will hurt him at most. Did he die unexpectedly?"

"In the land of brothels, the news is indeed the most well-informed."

Xiyan ate some food, gained strength, and her body felt a little warmer, and she didn't feel as uncomfortable as before: "The emperor really told Concubine Li to take good care of the prince?"

The empress is in charge of the harem, why did the emperor entrust this matter to Concubine Li?If, as Hongyu said, the emperor's favorite prince was Xiaobai, what was the reason for the fire? Was it because someone was jealous and did it on purpose?Who is responsible for the poisoning of His Highness the Crown Prince?Concubine Li is a powerful character, since she was entrusted by the emperor, how dare she blatantly treat Xia Yebai badly?

Xi Yan always felt that something was wrong, but now she was bored, her mind was in a mess, and she couldn't figure it out at all.

"In the palace, the favor of the emperor is a blessing or a curse. Who can know that it is a blessing for a powerful person like Empress Li? It is a disaster. Ten years ago, the prince was only as old as a child who had not yet reached the age of ten. He was originally favored. If you want to survive, you have to pretend to be crazy."
