Concubine Agent: My lord, stop pretending

Chapter 488 Massacre of the city, Arabian Nights

"It's that girl!" Empress Dowager Shen seemed stunned, and frowned slightly, "Aijia heard that she seemed to go to Yuling with Xiaoyaohou, did she come back?"

Ye Huan said: "Miss Su didn't go to Yuling with Xiaoyaohou, that's just a rumor. My people originally escorted her all the way back to Beijing, but I didn't expect an accident on the way, and her whereabouts are still unknown."

"That's right." The Empress Dowager Shen glanced at Yejing's position, and said seemingly unintentionally, "That girl Aijia also likes it very much. Although her identity is unknown, she is very witty and clever. All the Jade Princes are very fond of her."

When Empress Dowager Shen's words fell to the ground, everyone immediately heard her surprise.Prince Yu is very fond of Miss Su. Could this disappearance be related to Prince Yu?
"The empress dowager is worrying too much." Ye Huan replied flatly, and before the empress dowager Shen wanted to speak, he looked at Chang Qing who was beside him, "Go to the gate of the palace to meet fourth brother."

"Yes, I obey." Chang Qing saluted and retreated.

Empress Dowager Shen's complexion was a little ugly, she looked at Ye Hao, and seeing him shaking his head, she could only suppress the resentment in her heart, held Feng Yi in her hand, and stopped talking.

Not long after, Chang Qing came back to report: "Your Majesty, King Jing sent someone to say that he will not be attending the banquet, so that you don't have to wait for him."

"It's really arrogant. If you don't come, tell me earlier. Let the people in the first hall wait for him, and you can't tell until now. It's too self-confident!" Ye Hao snorted, the same prince, he is the elder brother, this is from him There is nothing wrong with saying it out of your mouth.

After Ye Hao finished speaking, everyone discussed a lot, but no one dared to stand up directly.

"In this case, we will..."

Ye Huan didn't talk to me, Ye Hao interrupted: "Your Majesty, you are really easy to talk. Those who knew thought you had a good temper, but didn't know? I thought you were afraid of King Jing and relied on other people's breath! After all, this man..." Ye Hao paused at this point, then raised his eyebrows and smiled, and said slowly, "It's hard to get!"

Ye Huan's face was as usual, but there was a flash of coldness in his eyes. He stared at Ye Hao, and said in a deep voice, "Did Kang Wang drink too much? My fourth brother and I have had a good relationship since we were young, so it's okay to rely on others." It's not my turn. As for the throne, although there are twists and turns, it's still justifiable, after all, the last emperor's edict cannot be faked!"

Ye Hao was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, and met Ye Huan's gaze coldly.Ye Huan beat him up, implying that he was the one who looked up to others, and that the last emperor's edict was his sore spot.It was the first time he had seen Ye Huan with such sharp words.Could it be that he already got what Su Yan was holding?

Ye Huan just said that his people are the most likely to get things after receiving Su Yan.Ye Huan already had Ye Jing's help, if those two things fell into Ye Huan's hands, wouldn't he have no chance?

"Okay, since King Jing isn't coming, we don't have to wait any longer, let's start the banquet!" While thinking about it, King Ding interrupted their tit-for-tat confrontation.

"What Uncle Ding said is true." Ye Huan smiled slightly and glanced at Chang Qing.

Chang Qing understood and loudly announced the start of the New Year's Eve banquet.A group of maids came in with all kinds of trays, delicious food and wine, full of civil and military affairs, on the surface it seemed to be happy and harmonious, and there was a scene of singing and dancing.

However, halfway through the banquet, when New Year's Eve was about to pass, Xu Shenjie suddenly walked in from outside the hall.Instead of saluting, under the surprised eyes of everyone, he walked up the jade steps directly, came in front of Ye Huan, and whispered in his ear.

Ye Huan's face darkened a little bit following Xu Shenjie's words, then he stood up abruptly, bowed to Empress Dowager Shen and Concubine Cheng, and said, "I have something urgent to do, so I'm leaving first." As he spoke, he looked at the palace servants beside him, "Serve the queen mother and the concubine well."

"Yes." The palace man took the order.

"Huan'er, what happened?" Concubine Cheng hurriedly called Ye Huan, but Ye Huan didn't seem to hear her, and walked out of Yuling Terrace without looking back.

Chu Qingzhou gave a hand to the two people on the jade steps, and followed by Ye Huan and left.

Ye Hao saw Ye Huan's expression in his eyes, thought for a while, and followed him out.

Seeing this, Empress Dowager Shen smiled mockingly: "I thought Ai's family couldn't ask anything, but I didn't expect that I would like to ignore you as my biological mother."

Concubine Cheng turned her eyes, stared straight at Empress Dowager Shen, and retorted: "No matter what, he is also my son and the master of Yutian."

Being poked at the sore spot, the Empress Dowager Shen's face became even uglier, she snorted coldly, and led the maid to leave from the side hall.

Concubine Cheng maintained a constant smile, and held the most noble posture, facing the officials of the first hall. Although she smiled indifferently, behind the pomp, there was a bitterness and forbearance invisible to the world.

She has walked this road for 20 years, and finally her hard work paid off. She got the status she wanted, but lost the most important thing in the past 20 years. Do you regret it?
Concubine Cheng asked herself, but she couldn't get an answer, so she didn't want to go into it. It might be a good thing to be confused...

The snow had just stopped tonight, and the entire night sky was as dark as if someone had poured ink on it, and the sky was full of stars like lamps, not only illuminating the sky, but also illuminating the vast land.

Ye Huan walked quickly in front, followed by Xu Shenjie, he said: "The sixteen spirits of the Netherworld have already entered Prince Jing's mansion, and may soon be coming towards the palace."

Ye Huan nodded indifferently, and walked forward under the icy moonlight.

"Your Majesty!" Chu Qingzhou chased up from behind and came to Ye Huan's side. When he saw him stop, he asked, "What news did Your Majesty know?"

Ye Huan turned his head to look at Chu Qingzhou, hesitated for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "King Jing secretly mobilized the sixteen evil spirits of the Netherworld to enter the capital, with unknown intentions."

Chu Qingzhou was startled, and quickly realized, "Could it be that Your Majesty suspects that King Jing intends to threaten you?"

Ye Huan didn't speak, but his slightly frowned eyebrows revealed his thoughts.

Knowing what Ye Huan was thinking, Chu Qingzhou said, "King Jing won't do this, Your Majesty can rest assured."

"Maybe he doesn't have such thoughts, but it doesn't mean that the people around him don't." Xu Shenjie interrupted suddenly, looking at Chu Qingzhou coldly, "Shen Yi's life experience must have been known to Chu, who has clear eyes and ears!"

Although it was a question, Xu Shenjie's tone was firm.And Chu Qingzhou would not deny it, he paused and nodded.

"What if there is hatred in Shen Yi's heart, and because of Su Yu's disappearance, King Jing lost some judgment and was even deceived?" Xu Shenjie's face was stern, and there was a sense of crisis in his eyes, "Mr. Chu It’s impossible not to know what the Sixteen Nether Demons mean. It’s not that I’m exaggerating, even if the entire capital is slaughtered, it’s probably not a fairy tale! At that time, how can Prime Minister Chu trust himself?”
