The demon queen seduces the cold emperor

Chapter 193 Concubine Lan's Death, Confrontation Frankly

In Concubine Lan's bedroom, the atmosphere was tense and solemn.

The eunuchs and court ladies who were kneeling all over the ground trembled, feeling the fear of imminent death.

On the big bed with beautiful carvings, Lan Fei's body was laid flat, with a blue bruise on her neck, a rope was hung on the red beam with a rope loop, and a square stool was placed under it, and there were still Lan Fei's embroidered shoes left on the stool. There is a letter next to the bed, and the envelope reads: His Majesty himself.

With the support of Lu Kaiming, Chu Muyuan hurried in, followed by the imperial physician and the disobedient Xingbu, raised his hand to avoid the salute of the palace servants, and asked directly: "What's going on? What's going on with Concubine Lan? Suicide suddenly?"

"Back to the emperor, after the empress was banned by the emperor today, she has been stuck in the room and can't come out. The dinner is useless. The servants are waiting outside. After waiting for a long time, there is no movement, and the mother is silent. Later, the servants I opened the door and went in, but found that the empress was not in the room, so the servants went around looking for the empress, and searched the entire bedroom, but still could not find the empress, and asked the guards. They all said that the empress did not go out of the bedroom privately , So, the servants went back to the dormitory, and when they went back, they saw the empress hanged herself in the room! After putting the empress down, they found that the empress was not breathing!" A nun replied in a sobbing voice.

Hearing this, Chu Muyuan squinted his eyes, and said in a deep voice, "The imperial doctor is going to check on Concubine Lan's body!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After some inspections, Wu Tan knelt down and kowtowed: "My majesty, after inspection, it is true that Concubine Lan was strangled by a rope and died of suffocation. It must be suicide! Majesty, please forgive me!"

"What's that on the bedside?" Chu Muyuan looked away, took a step, stood down by the bed, picked up the letter, looked at Lan Fei's silk handwriting on it, and handed it to Lu with a sad face. Kaiming, Lu Kaiming nodded, opened the letter, checked that there was no abnormality, and handed it back to Chu Muyuan. After reading it again, Chu Muyuan crumpled the letter into a ball, looked at Concubine Lan's face, and lay on the bed. He stood there for a long time, then turned and walked out.

"The Ministry of Rites and the Internal Affairs Office will come immediately to deal with Concubine Lan's funeral according to the specifications!"

"Yes, I will obey the order!" The imperial physician and others knelt respectfully.

.....................

In Jingshi's house, Chu Yunhe waited on Duan Jinchu to eat, drink, and drink. Although he was doing the work of a slave, he always had a smile on his face, and he loved it.

But Duan Jinchu was really embarrassed, "Yunhe, I'll do it myself, you..."

"Why, do you think this king is not serving you well?" Chu Yunhe deliberately lowered his face when he heard this.

"No, it's me..."

"Stop talking nonsense, you should be happy to let this king put down his dignity to serve you like this. For this, you have to remember that if I lie on the bed in the future, it should be you!" Chu Yunhe As he spoke, he smiled again, his pupils were bright, full of pampering and warmth.

Duan Jinchu grinned, "Well, of course I will, but you can't lie down easily, you have to live longer than me, you have to take good care of me!"

Chu Yunhe leaned down to hug her, and kissed her hard on the lips. The two of them were face to face, like glue. After chatting like this for a while, Lu Kaiming came again!
"Eighth Prince, the Emperor summoned you to the Chaoyang Hall, the Concubine Lan committed suicide just now!"

Outside the door, Chu Yunhe frowned slightly, and said displeasedly: "It's not an hour yet, is Father too impatient? Then Concubine Lan...why did she commit suicide?"

"Back to the Eighth Prince, the situation is like this..." Lu Kaiming explained it in detail, and then continued: "The Emperor has an order. If the Eighth Prince wants to stay in the respect room, the servants will force the Eighth Prince to be summoned!"

Behind Lu Kaiming, stood ten Ouchi guards!

"Oh, father really cares about this king!" Chu Yunhe sneered, and glanced to one side, "Little Shuanzi, go back to the house."

"Yes, master!" Xiao Shuanzi bowed his head.

"Let's go!"

Chu Yunhe took the lead and walked out, with his hands behind his back, his back was extremely chic.

Lu Kaiming walked behind, his eyelids slightly raised, and looked at Chu Yunhe from behind, with a thoughtful face on his face. He has been with this master for seven years, and secretly snatched all the news about the emperor in the palace, including all the affairs of the emperor. He only knew that Chu Yunhe was not easy, because he once gave him 10 taels of silver in the blink of an eye, which frightened him at the time. This was a huge sum of money. With Chu Yunhe's salary, it was only more than 2000 taels of silver a year. , how can there be so much money?

It was also seven years ago that he agreed to do things for Chu Yunhe. After Chu Yunhe was bullied by King Anping, he knelt down in front of the coffin of Concubine Li Gui in Yongle Palace and asked him if he still remembered Concubine Li Gui from the hundred battles. Under the plank, he begged the emperor to save him?He remembered that from now on, in order to repay the grace of saving his life, no matter whether the prince could become famous or not, and whether he would one day ascend to the Great Treasure, he would be loyal to him wholeheartedly, and for this reason, he would secretly work for him in front of the emperor, hoping The prince supported by himself can stand out.

Looking at it now, especially at that time when the emperor casually said "the king of Tiansu", he finally breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what disputes there will be with King Anjing in the future, at least the emperor's edict to the throne says the eighth prince. name, then the succession is justified!

In the Nuan Pavilion of the Chaoyang Palace, Chu Muyuan was standing by the window. When he heard footsteps coming in, he ordered directly: "The Eighth Prince stays, and everyone else retreats!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The palace servants retreated one after another, Chu Yunhe took a step forward, cupped his hands and said, "Father, my son is here!"

"Yunhe, tell me honestly, does Concubine Lan's death have anything to do with you? I remember you asking me, who should pay the debt for Xiao Chuzi being beaten because of Concubine Lan? You... are stepping out of Chaoyang After the palace, have you ever been to Concubine Lan's Palace? Or have you sent someone there?" Chu Muyuan turned around slowly, stared into Chu Yunhe's eyes, and asked seriously.

Hearing this, Chu Yunhe couldn't help laughing, "Father, do you think it was done by your son-in-law just based on this? Concubine Lan is dead, there will always be an imperial doctor or an autopsy, right? How did she die? You ground yourself Concubine Lan, Concubine Lan's palace is surrounded by imperial guards. I am asking how I can get in? I was summoned into the palace urgently by you today. I have never brought a single person under my command. How can I be able to kill such a big thing? Who to send?"

"Yunhe, does it really have nothing to do with you?" Chu Muyuan asked again, his eyes sharpened sharply.

"Father, if you say yes, you can have it, and if you say no, you won't have it. That's right, this son wants to blame Concubine Lan, because she caused Xiao Chuzi to be beaten. Who knew that she would be so quick?" Just commit suicide!" Chu Yunhe shrugged with a look of pity.

Chu Muyuan stared at Chu Yunhe for a long time, Chu Yunhe faced him fearlessly, his eyes were calm and generous, after staring at each other for a long time, Chu Muyuan said heavily, "Yunhe, my concubine has What kind of behavior, I know better than anyone else, they have their own disposal, the way out... I have already arranged, such as precious concubine... You, restrain yourself in the future! I am tired today, and I will not leave you in the Chaoyang Palace. Arrange it yourself!"
