The black-bellied prince is soft and cute

Chapter 222
Shui Qianxun watched as Chu Li swept out from under the bed. Tianshuizhi's blue clothes flowed like flowing clouds and stood in the center of the dormitory. The candlelight shone on his bright and flowery face, and the entire dark dormitory suddenly lit up. point.

The queen raised her eyes and looked at him coldly, she wasn't surprised by his move from under the bed, she just frowned slightly: "The palace is heavily guarded tonight, don't act rashly, after dawn, the palace will have its own way take you out."

"Thank you, auntie."

Chu Li bowed to the queen with a lazy tone and a smile at the corner of her mouth, not showing much respect.

But the queen obviously didn't care about it.

As soon as the word "little aunt" came out, Shui Qianxun under the bed was startled. Are Chu Li's mother and Queen Duan sisters?But neither Huangfu Xun nor Huangfu Yi ever mentioned this matter.

Or is it that the relationship between Chu Li and the queen is a secret that no one knows?Judging from Chu Li's move to avoid Huangfuyi just now, it is very likely that Huangfuyi didn't know about it.

"Your mother left the Duan family back then and swore that she would never enter the Duan family and never be a daughter of the Duan family. This palace cannot afford this title." Queen Duan said indifferently.

"If my mother hadn't left Dahan back then, how could my aunt have become the queen of the world. I heard that my grandfather wanted to marry my mother to King Rui. Because my mother ran away from home, I had no choice but to claim that My mother died of illness, and my aunt was asked to marry King Rui, who would have thought that the one who finally ascended to the throne of Dahan would be King Rui, who is not a showy person."

"I don't want to mention the past." The queen said lightly, "Your mother followed the love in her heart and was unwilling to accept the marriage arranged by the family. I married her for her to protect the family's face. Is there anything wrong with her?" satisfying?"

Chu Li smiled lazily, and suddenly changed the subject: "Does the Queen like the big gift Li gave tonight?"

"I have already guessed that the assassin tonight is related to you. Chu Li, what are you trying to do when you assassinate the emperor and set fire to the Taiji Hall?" The queen's voice suddenly lowered, but she couldn't hear much anger.

When Shui Qianxun, who was hiding under the bed, heard this, his heart skipped a beat. The chaos in the palace tonight was indeed caused by Chu Li.

There is only one reason for him to do this, and that is to target Huangfu Xun!

Chu Li didn't hide it either, and said directly: "Of course I did this for the sake of Huangfu Xun. The assassination of the emperor is in the best interest of the crown prince, so the person who is most suspected is naturally His Royal Highness the crown prince."

"The emperor won't believe it. The crown prince's foundation is not stable now. If he really wants to attack the emperor, it won't do him much good." The queen's tone was tinged with sarcasm.

"What happened tonight is just a seed of doubt planted in the emperor's heart. After some time, the seed will start to take root and sprout."

"Chu Li, you haven't told me until now, why did you have to kill Huangfu Xun?" The queen stared at Chu Li. Chu Li is already the heir of Wei Chu Kingdom, so she won't get involved in this kind of seizing of the heir apparent for no reason. As for the matter, after all, whether this matter succeeds or fails, it will not do him much good.

Even if he called her Auntie, since his mother claimed to be sick and died long ago, it is impossible to make his relationship with the Duan family public, otherwise it would be a serious crime of deceiving the emperor.

"Actually, there is one thing that I haven't told the empress. My mother died four years ago." When Chu Li said this, there was a hint of sadness and melancholy in his eyes.

"She's dead?"

"My mother didn't tell me until she died that she was the daughter of the most honored Duan family in Dahan. I found some clues in my mother's relics, followed the vines, and asked the old servant who served my mother about my mother's background. , the mother is actually the queen's sister." Chu Li said
