The night is very dark.
Dark clouds covered the silver moon, and there was no trace of light.
The cold palace was desolate, and women's cries could be heard from time to time, which seemed terrifying.
"Chu'er, I'm fine." Concubine Yun said with a smile, "The reason why women in the cold palace are sad, sad and crazy is because they have expectations, and my expectations have been exhausted long ago. It's just a change of place to live. Self, it’s nothing.”
Yun Chu nodded: "Auntie, please stay here for now, I'll have someone send you some things."
After Concubine Yun entered the cold palace, Yun Chu let out a long breath.
She looked up at the dark night, her eyes dejected for a moment.
There are only two days left, only two days left to succeed, but...
She only indulged in dejection for a moment, and soon woke up.
Now that Chu Rui is moving into the Yangxin Palace, he will definitely replace all the eunuchs and maids. There will be no one of his own around the emperor, and there is no way to talk about feeding the antidote.
The fastest way now is to capture Chu Rui alive, forcibly kill Zi Gu, and then kill Chu Rui.
Yunchu returned to the East Palace while thinking.
As soon as he walked in, a figure sitting at the door suddenly woke up, stood up and said: "Mom, are you okay?"
"Brother Yu, why aren't you asleep yet?" A smile appeared on Yun Chu's face, "It will be dawn in an hour, and you have to go to the Imperial College, so go and rest."
"Mom, is there anything I can do to help you?" Chu Hongyu's face was full of worry, "Even though I'm young, I can do a lot. I really want to help my mother."
Yun Chu touched his face: "Mother is really happy that you have such a heart. However, there is really nothing that needs your help now. I will talk to you when mother needs you, okay?"
"You have to tell me too." Chu Changsheng walked out of the door and said softly, "Brother, mother, I have grown up too."
Yunchu took the two children in and slept with them.
But after only sleeping for a while, she woke up.
She got up lightly, dressed neatly and went to Changqiu Palace.
"Chu'er, Chu'er..." Concubine Yin's eyes were just red. When she saw Yun Chu, she seemed to see her backbone and couldn't help but burst into tears, "Qinghua, what should she do? Her face is completely ruined. ,What should I do……"
Yun Chu looked at Qinghua lying on the couch in silence, not knowing what to say.
When she learned that Chu Rui had kidnapped Qinghua, she was most worried that Qinghua would be bribed by Chu Rui... After all, in her opinion, Qinghua had no brains.
However, what she didn't expect was that Qinghua would rather suffer inhuman torture than betray the emperor.
Although Qinghua is not very smart, she still has the pride of being a royal princess.
"Shen'er...Brother Shen!"
Qinghua screamed and woke up.
When she saw the two people in front of her, she breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm saved, right? Brother Shen is fine too, right?"
Concubine Yin nodded: "Brother Shen is fine. He's fine. He doesn't know that something happened to you yet. You need to take good care of yourself first, be good."
Only then did Qinghua realize something, and she touched her face, ears, and hair. Immediately, her tears fell down, and her whole body trembled from crying.
"Qinghua, my Qinghua!"
Concubine Yin also started crying, hugging Qinghua and crying together.
After crying enough, Qinghua showed an ugly smile: "I'm just disfigured, it's nothing serious... As long as my father is fine..."
After saying this, Concubine Yin cried even harder.
Qinghua's heart skipped a beat and he raised his head: "Yunchu, father, he..."
"Father, Chu Rui has confused his mind." Yun Chu's voice was a little deep, "I will send additional secret guards to guard Changqiu Palace. During this period, my mother and second sister will not leave Changqiu Palace."
She had the secret guards left for her by Chu Yi and the Yun family's secret guards, but there were still too few available people.
The sky is getting brighter.
The sun rose from the eastern sky and illuminated the palace. The palace maids and eunuchs were busy in an orderly manner.
No matter what big thing happened last night, in the new day, you still have to do what you need to do.
"Princess, where are you going?" Qiu Tong asked softly from behind.
Yun Chu looked forward: "Go to Zhan Shifu."
There is a Zhan Shifu in the palace, which is subordinate to the East Palace organization. Its main function is to teach and assist the prince.
Above Zhan Shifu, there is also Shaobao, a young master and a young master, who is a second-grade official, equivalent to the staff of the East Palace.
After Chu Yi became the prince, he replaced many people in Zhan Shifu with people he trusted. In this situation, he could only invite these staff to plan major events together.
"I've seen the Crown Princess before!"
The staff of Zhan Shi's Mansion hurriedly paid their respects. Those who were busy inside were the fifth and sixth grade Zhan Shi and the deputy envoys.
Although their official positions are small, they have heard a little about what happened in the palace last night.
It is said that Concubine Yun led the imperial guards to search the harem and injured Prince Zhuang. Finally, Concubine Yun was thrown into the cold palace and the leader of the imperial guards was changed.
There is no peace in the palace, and I don't know what the princess is doing here at this time.
Yun Chu said: "Excuse me, Liu Zhan, please go and ask the three masters, the young master, the young master and the young master, to come over."
This is very bad after moving into the palace. When leaving the palace, you need to ask the queen for instructions. If you don't have a queen, you have to ask the concubine who is co-managing the harem. I don't know who will be in charge of the harem after my aunt is in the cold palace.
Sitting in Zhanshi Mansion waiting.
There was news from the previous court that shocked Yun Chu.
After many days, the emperor went to court despite being ill, and announced to the court that he would focus on recuperating from his illness. Since the prince was not here, Prince Zhuang would oversee the country.
As soon as these words came out, the whole court was in an uproar, and countless veterans raised objections.
Because of Chu Rui's special status, letting Chu Rui supervise the country has fostered his ambition, and the Jin Kingdom will be in chaos.
However, the emperor could not listen to everyone's opinions at all, and instead wrote an imperial edict with his own hand, naming Chu Rui as regent.
This move is even more puzzling.
An old minister, because of his advice, hit his head against a pillar and died on the spot.
A group of petty officials in Zhan Shifu couldn't help but talk about it.
"Isn't he a sick man? He must have been pretending to be ill to gain the emperor's trust by living till now..."
"I see, he and the Queen Mother both want that position... After all, in the eyes of the Queen Mother and him, that position should have been his."
"Shh, you dare to say this, and it will cost you your life."
"I just don't understand what the emperor is thinking. How can he let the former crown prince's legitimate son supervise the country? There has never been such a rule."
"A regent was also appointed. According to history books, a regent is appointed to assist the country only after the young emperor ascends the throne..."
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Don't cause trouble for the prince."
“……”
While they were discussing, three adults, the Young Master, the Young Master, and the Young Master, the Young Master and the Young Master, also came in.
All three of them looked bad, obviously because of what happened in court this morning.
"I'll pay my respects to the Crown Princess later."
The three of them collected their thoughts and handed over to Yunchu.
Yun Chu stood up and said, "You three adults, don't be polite. Let's sit inside. Come and serve tea."
The palace maid served steaming tea and brought it in.
