There was a house in the west of the capital city. Yun Liu hurriedly pushed the door open and Xier came out in a daze.

When Yun Liu saw Xier, she asked in a scattered manner: "How did you do it? Why did you attack the adults?"

"I...I...I don't." Xier was stunned, her eyes filled with tears.

Yun Liu said: "Isn't it? The lord just asked you to forge traces of assassination. You don't have to do such a ruthless move. The lord is now hanging on a thread."

Xier said anxiously: "Senior sister, if you blame me, you should ask the matter clearly... The adult asked me to pretend to be assassinated. At that time, my sword did not stab in, but the adult grabbed the tip of the sword and stabbed it in front of the chest... I don't know what the specific injury is."

"What did you say? The adults stabbed themselves?" Yun Liu couldn't understand for a moment.

Xier looked aggrieved: "It was the adult who asked me to do this. I didn't hurt him. But the news later said that the adult was seriously injured. Even the imperial physician said so after seeing him... Senior sister, did you think it was the adult who used a trick to make the world believe that the matter was sent by the Marquis of Jianchang and asked His Majesty to kill Marquis of Jianchang, so he deliberately injured himself so seriously?"

Yun Liu was a little dizzy and said, "You really didn't hurt your lord?"

"No."

Xier pouted and said, "Senior Sister, don't you even believe me?"

Yun Liu frowned and said, "Why is the adult's injury so serious? Or is it the illusion created by the adult deliberately? But it is impossible. Even the imperial doctor went there. How could the adult fake it so perfectly in front of so many people? Or is it really..."

Xier asked anxiously: "Senior sister, what's wrong with the adults now?"

"I don't know, don't ask too much. I have something to do. Please stay here... Oh, no, you take the Ma girl away first. It may not be safe here. Zhou Laosan is unstable. You hide in the Zaoyuan in the south of the city first. If there is anything, I will come to you." Yun Liu ordered decisively.

"oh."

Xier responded.

Then Yunliu left the courtyard and went to the tea shop at the street entrance to gather his subordinates, including Peng Yu, who had just entered Shenxi Gate.

"Yunzhuan, what are your important instructions?"

Peng Yu did not participate in the action that night and was confused about what happened outside.

Yun Liu said: "The adults were assassinated and injured. Now the city is searching for assassins. The officers and soldiers are likely to come to the door, so they need to be wary of it."

Peng Yu asked nervously: "How are you doing with your sir?"

Yunliu replied, "It's not a serious problem, I'm currently recuperating at home."

"That's good!"

Peng Yu was obviously relieved, and then said confidently: "Yunzhuan, we all have officials, what are the officers and soldiers? The soldiers come to block the water and the earth cover..."

Yun Liu said coldly: "My lord has given me the instructions before that if there is any change in the city, all strongholds will be temporarily invalidated and contact us after the matter is calmed down. Therefore, in the future, you need to be at ease and do not need to come and report again."

Peng Yu asked anxiously: "Where is that villain? He can't... do nothing, right?"

"Retreat outside the city first, ignore the matters in the city, and find a way to go out of the city after tomorrow."

Yun Liu waved his hand, "But there is really one thing you need to do. The adults rescued some women outside the city. Some of them will enter the city after dawn, while the other will stay outside the city. You can make proper arrangements and let them return home after the case is settled."

Peng Yu asked curiously: "What woman?"

"Let you do things without asking why."

Yun Liu said seriously, "Sir, you must obey my orders in everything. No matter what happens in the city in the next half month, you will not come back!"

...

...

Zhang Yanling was imprisoned, which seemed incredible to the people in the court.

The dignified uncle was actually thrown into the prison by Zhu Houzhao regardless of his mercy, which completely subverted his views. After all, there was a precedent for the Ming Dynasty to be exempted from crimes with merits. The nobles of all dynasties enjoyed various privileges. It was not that the prince violated the law and committed the same crime as the common people in later generations. Everything was nonsense in the face of imperial power.

In the inner house of Chen Mansion, Chen Xi’s injury became the most concerned thing for his family.

On the night when Chen Xi was injured, the Shen family only heard some vague messages. The front yard and the middle yard were in chaos. First, Chen Xi's personal soldiers arranged controls, and later with Zhu Houzhao's arrival, the Imperial Guard took over the security task, and no one could come out to inquire about the specific situation.

It was not until the next day that the family members realized that Chen Xi was seriously injured and were very worried.

Xie Yuner and Zhou both wanted to visit the east wing of the Intermediate Court, but were stopped. Although the Imperial Guard withdrew with Zhu Houzhao, Chen Xi gave an order to his personal soldiers and did not allow his subordinates to visit.

"...Dad Zhu, when is it now? The master was injured, why don't I allow me to visit me?" Xie Yun'er seemed very angry, thinking that since Chen Xi was recuperating in the mansion, she should go back to the main house of the inner courtyard instead of staying in the wing room. As for Chen Xi's personal soldiers to stop him, she couldn't understand it.

Zhu Qi didn't know Chen Xi's intention, so he could only tell Xie Yuner intact based on the words from the ward: "...Madam, don't be anxious. The master's injury should be fine, but because His Majesty and the important officials in the court will come to visit at any time, it is not so convenient to have the female family in the inner courtyard here."

Xie Yuner said: "When Your Majesty and the ministers come to visit, I will avoid it. Why can't I even see each other like this?"

Zhu Qi said: "Your Majesty came last night. He had not reported it at that time and went straight to the ward... So the wife would like to listen to the master's words. Now is a special period."

When Xie Yuner heard that the emperor was here, she couldn't help but remembered that she had met Zhu Houzhao before, and she felt a little scared... Zhu Houzhao's reputation among the people is not very good, especially because he likes to collect beauties and hide them in the leopard room, it has become a rumor among the people. Even officials will avoid being seen when their wives and daughters go out.

"knew!"

Xie Yuner didn't force her, especially knowing that this matter was ordered by Chen Xi personally, and she would not act irritably. In her opinion, as long as Chen Xi is not in danger of life, it is fine, and other matters can be discussed.

When she returned to the inner courtyard, Xie Yuner was immediately surrounded by a group of women waiting for the news.

Zhou took the lead: "Daughter-in-law, what's wrong with him? I heard that his injuries are serious. Have you visited him?"

Xie Yun'er didn't want to worry about her family, so she didn't dare to admit that she had not seen Chen Xi, and comforted her: "Don't worry, mom and a few sisters. I have seen the master. My injury is not very serious, it's just skin trauma."

Zhou smiled and said, "I just said that my son is blessed and has a great life... How could he be seriously injured if he is so tough? Let's go and visit him now."

"mother."

Xie Yuner immediately stopped Zhou, "Some things are not as simple as you think. There are many people coming to visit the house these two days. Because the master has recently investigated a major case in the court, and the injury also arose because of it. Last night, His visit came to the house and it was not convenient for women and children to go there. This is why the master did not set up his sickbed in the inner house."

Zhou looked confused and asked in a delicate voice next to him: "Sister-in-law, what is Your Majesty? Can you eat it?"

Lin Dai quickly pulled his sister-in-law to her side, and Xie Yun'er patiently explained: "Yi'er, don't talk nonsense. Your Majesty means the emperor. We can't be disrespectful to the emperor."

Zhou scolded: "You little bastard, it would be fine if you caused trouble for Nyonnyon before, but you dare to speak rudely? The emperor is the most powerful person in the Ming Dynasty. If you hear your words, you must be punished."

Chen Yi'er was taught a lesson by the two elders, and she felt a little confused and thought to herself: "Isn't the eldest brother the biggest in the world? Why is anyone more powerful than the eldest brother? Then I have a chance to see it."

Zhou was a little guilty and hurriedly said, "Since even the emperor is here, we won't go to see you... If you have any needs, just send someone to the backyard to say... Good daughter-in-law, I'll leave it to you for preparing things."

Xie Yuner said, "Mom, I know, you don't have to worry too much, you'd better go home and rest early."

"Let's go."

Zhou seemed quite impatient, "Two bastards, go home with their mother."

"oh!"

Chen Yun responded dullly and followed my mother, while Chen Yier refused loudly here: "I won't go back now, I want to eat the meal made by Sister Xiaoyu here."

Zhou did not force himself and cursed, "You don't like the food I cook, but you just want to eat the food I cook. What kind of food can Xiaoyu cook? You little bastard, you obviously don't want to go home..."

Amid the scolding, Zhou was sent out by Xie Yuner and other daughters.

After Zhou took Chen Yun away, Xie Yuner asked the women in each house to go back with peace of mind, leaving only Xiaoyu and Shen Yier.

Chen Yier said: "Sister-in-law, how powerful is that emperor? Why is he more powerful than his elder brother?"

This question made Xie Yuner speechless. Xiaoyu smiled and said, "Miss. Second Miss. There is a saying that all the world is the king's land, and all the land is the king's minister. This is the emperor's world. Do you think it is powerful? Even the master is just a minister for the emperor. Heaven, earth, king and relatives are the king's greatest, except heaven and earth."

Chen Yi'er's eyes flashed with glory and said, "Is that the person who gave birth to the emperor more powerful?"

Xie Yun'er touched Chen Yi'er's head and said, "You are not young anymore, don't say such strange words as meat and vegetables! We are the Shangshu Mansion after all, Yi'er, don't talk nonsense when you go out in the future."

...

...

Chen Yier planted a seed in her heart at a young age.

The person she admired the most in the past was Chen Xi. Now she suddenly found another person she admired, that is the emperor who was even more "powerful" than Chen Xi.

But she didn't quite understand who this emperor was.

But there is something to do with her that she can straighten out the emperor's greatest, and the person who gave birth to the emperor would be even bigger. The current emperor will definitely die, and the next emperor's mother can control the new emperor, just like her mother, Zhou, who has kept her and Shen Yun tightly. This is not possible, nor is it possible.

The front yard and the middle yard are closely guarded. When they leave the inner yard, there are guard posts staring at them.

It seems to be maintaining the safety of Chenxi, but in fact it is to create a tense atmosphere and prevent people from approaching Chenxi ward casually.

If someone else had changed, he would naturally not be able to go to the east wing, but Chen Yi'er was Chen Xi's real sister.

Most of Chen Xi's personal guards knew Chen Yi'er, who was willful and willful. Seeing that she did not obey the orders, she would only politely ask the second lady to go back to the back house. It would be absolutely impossible to move heavily, and it would be even more impossible to offend her.

Chen Yi'er sneaked to the east wing several times, but was invited back to the inner courtyard, which made her very unwilling.

"...Isn't it said that the emperor will come to see the elder brother? When will it come? I want to see if he is like Sun Wukong..."

The stories that Chen Yier usually comes into contact with are not about female biographies or model figures in female schools, but about Lin Daiyu, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, etc. There are many stories like the Shen family. They were popular in Tingzhou Prefecture, and the Shen family had comic strips. Chen Yier was on the 11th year and could already understand the words. She usually likes these books the most.

Unlike ordinary girls, she is very lively and likes to climb and make trouble. Seeing that she could not enter the yard of the east wing, she simply climbed to a high rockery in the back house and looked out, watching the people in the yard enter and exit, and carefully observed to analyze which person is more like the "emperor's old man" with great power.

Unfortunately, after watching this for a day, I couldn't find a character that matched the description.

"No, I'm not a good idea to wait in the backyard like this. It's better to climb over the wall and take a look, or I'll go to the main entrance from the backyard, or maybe the emperor's old man came from the main entrance?"

Chen Yier made up her mind, "The emperor must be very old. As long as I stare at those older people, I will definitely find someone!"

Chen Yier was curious and tried to climb over the wall and enter the east wing room. She simply walked around the yard from the back door to the front door. She was driven away several times when she approached the gate.

Zhu Qi was so amused and laughed at the news that he sent Chen Yi'er back to the back door. As a result, Chen Yi'er came over secretly again. She was clever and wanted to find a piece of clothing to get away with it.

"If I put on makeup and become a soldier, I might be able to get away with it... I am shorter, and if I go through this, I will still be recognized. Where can I go to find clothes?"
To be continued...
