Chapter 318 The Crown Prince Is Deposed
Three days later, in the inn along the way, Ye Yiheng and Li Yuyan were having dinner.
It rained at night, and the rain was quite heavy. The door of the canteen was closed to prevent the rain from sweeping in.
Suddenly the door was pushed open, and the moisture of the rain was wrapped in. The two men came in at the same time, Ji Qingyu and Leng Song.
Seeing Li Yuyan having lunch, Ji Qingyu sighed deeply and finally saw her. In the past three days, he had chased her all the way, thinking that he had missed it, or that the housekeeper of the royal family lied to him.
"Ayan, how come you are so fast?"
Li Yuyan smiled and nodded: "Yes."
In order to rush on the road, in the past three days, they have eight hours of travel every day, and the remaining four hours spent overnight in the carriage. Today, they stayed in the inn because of the rain.
According to Ye Yiheng's intention, they needed to go and go back quickly. She also felt that she spent less time on the road and could return home as soon as possible, so she reached an agreement.
At this moment, Ji Qingyu asked this question, so she naturally couldn't explain it in detail.
Ye Yiheng raised his eyebrows and pushed the shrimp peeled from the pine cones in front of him to Li Yuyan: "Thank you hard on the road, eat more."
"Yeah, thank you!"
Li Yuyan picked up shrimp and ate it. When she looked up and saw Ji Qingyu still staring at her, she had to pull the corner of her mouth: "Qingyu, don't you eat?"
"Eat, why don't you?"
Ji Qingyu sat down at the next table and raised his hand to ask the postman to serve the food.
Ye Yiheng signaled Pinecone to send Ji Qingyu and the others a pot of wine.
Although Pinecone was reluctant, she still obediently delivered the wine pot to Ji Qingyu.
Ji Qingyu was a little surprised and looked at Ye Yiheng, who was expressionless. Is this man so kind?
Songgui said, "My Highness means that this wine can warm up your body when it is cold in winter."
Ji Qingyu was not polite, and signaled Leng Song to pour wine.
Ye Yiheng suddenly spoke: "Why did the emperor's grandmother leave?"
The emperor's grandmother's physical condition has always been OK, but the incident happened suddenly and something was strange.
Ji Qingyu drank wine and his whole body was much warmer.
He looked around and saw that the only ones in the huge dining hall were there, and the postman stood far away, then he said, "The Emperor's grandmother was so angry."
Upon hearing this, Ye Yiheng and Li Yuyan were very surprised.
Li Yuyan blurted out, "Who is angry with the Queen Mother?"
The Empress Dowager didn't like her, and she was not sure if the Empress Dowager had participated when Ye Zhenxian gave her a paradise, but she was still surprised when she heard this rashly.
Ji Qingyu sneered: "Who else can it be except Ye Zhenxian, this dirty person?"
Ye Yiheng asked in a deep voice: "What happened?"
Ji Qingyu didn't hide it from them and said bluntly: "I saved Ajiu in the lake before. My uncle meant to pair me with Ajiu. But Ajiu has someone in her heart, how can she be with me?"
He also has someone in his heart and will never be a pair with Ajiu.
"During that period, I discussed with Ajiu how to change my uncle's mind. If I discussed in her Xingning Hall, others would know that we would think we had an affair, so we made an appointment to go to my grandmother's Ci Nian Palace.
I want my grandmother to help me tell my uncle what I mean."
"I went there late that day for some reason. When I arrived, I saw Ajiushu huddled in a wheelchair and cried bitterly. My grandmother lay straight on the ground, with Ye Zhenxian who was so scared that she was pale."
After hearing this, Ye Yiheng knew it.
Li Yuyan asked Ji Qingyu with a puzzled look on her face, "What happened?"
Ji Qingyu glanced at Ye Yiheng, but stopped talking.
Ye Yiheng shook his head slightly and signaled him not to say anything. It just so happened that Ji Qingyu also meant that, so he shut up.
It’s better for Ye Zhenxian to be filthy, Ayan still doesn’t know.
"Qingyu, what's wrong with Ajiu? She is my friend!" Li Yuyan said anxiously.
Ji Qingyu didn't say much, but said, "Ajiu is fine, don't worry."
Intuition told Li Yuyan that what must have happened must have happened, and the empress dowager was angry. But at this moment, she saw that Ye Yiheng and Ji Qingyu no longer talked about this issue, so she didn't ask much.
The next morning, Ye Yiheng and Li Yuyan and his party set out first.
Ji Qingyu looked at the empty inn and pinched the horse whip.
Leng Song said, "Master, the pot of wine from the Crown Prince is quite strong. Do you think we have overslept after drinking or drinking?"
In this way, we cannot walk with the prince.
"He doesn't want to do this." Ji Qingyu said lightly.
If the weather is cold today, he and he have cold diseases, so it is true that he can warm him up with wine.
Besides, Ye Yiheng didn't force them to drink all the wine, because they thought it was delicious and they had finished drinking it all.
--
On November 29th, I was in a hurry to travel for half a month, Ye Yiheng and Li Yuyan arrived in Beijing.
As soon as I entered the city gate, I saw the solemnity of the city.
The shouts on the street were gone, and many wineries and teahouses closed down, and pedestrians were surprisingly quiet when walking on the road.
The group headed straight to the palace.
Turning eastward to the palace was the East Palace. Ye Yiheng was about to return to the East Palace first, but he didn't expect someone to stop them halfway.
It turned out that the princes were waiting for the prince.
"Please ask the sixth brother of the prince to enter the palace first!"
"The sixth brother of the prince came to the palace to pay his condolences!"
Ye Yiheng got out of the carriage: "I will go back to the East Palace first."
The third prince Ye Gaojun bowed: "The sixth brother of the prince, the emperor's grandmother is my grandmother. Even if the sixth brother is working hard all the way back, go to her first and make sense!"
This statement makes sense, Ye Yiheng and his party go to the palace first.
White cloth and mourning banners were hung everywhere in the palace, and the people in the palace were all dressed in white and dressed in plain clothes.
Li Yuyan held Ye Yiheng's arm, followed by Mo Chen, Ruofeng, Liuyun, Yinshuang, Pine Cone, Ling Lang and Miaozhu.
After leaving the palace gate, the seven people following them were stopped.
Ye Gaojun smiled and said, "Master enters the palace, you are waiting here!"
Ye Yiheng said indifferently: "Did the third brother forget that he can't look at him alone and needs someone to take care of him?"
Ye Gaojun smiled again: "Oh, since that's the case, then let's go together."
When he walked to the open space in front of the main hall of the Xiande Hall, a small eunuch came out: "The emperor ordered another edict, and asked all the highnesses to move to the Xiande Hall first!"
As a last resort, the group of people headed to the Palace of Xiande.
Entering the Xiande Hall, there was no one on the dragon chaise, and Eunuch Ye stood beside the dragon chaise.
Li Yuyan looked around for a while and there were many palace maids and eunuchs standing like wooden stakes in the hall in the past, but now there is no one. Only the emperor standing on the high platform is close to Eunuch Ye.
She patted Ye Yiheng's arm and lowered her voice: "Your Highness, I think the atmosphere is a bit weird."
There is murderous aura around!
"You don't have to care about your own detachment later." Ye Yiheng also noticed it.
Seeing Ye Yiheng arrive, Eunuch Ye unveiled the imperial edict and screamed: "Ye Yiheng listens to the imperial edict!"
Ye Yiheng raised his robe and knelt down, and the people beside him also knelt down.
Eunuch Ye read out the imperial edict: "The sixth son of the emperor, Ye Yiheng, was blind and weak, and his virtue was deficient, so he could not be the important task of the crown prince of a country. Now he was abolished!"
What?
Before he could go to the Queen Mother's mourning hall to pay his respects, the first thing he had waited for was the deposed prince's edict.
Li Yuyan stood up, helped Ye Yiheng up, and called out with concern: "Your Highness..."
Ye Yiheng patted her back and said in a gentle voice: "It's okay, I'll come sooner or later this day."
"But, how do you decide whether this virtue is a loss?" Ye Yiheng asked Eunuch Ye on the high platform.
Chapter completed!
