There is no airtight wall in the world. Such a big thing happened in the palace, and people outside the palace who were well-informed also knew about the changes in Jiaofang Palace.

It's a pity that the Jiaofang Palace is sealed so tightly that even a fly can't fly in, let alone get information.

The prince called the emperor's grandson to the study for a long and secret talk.

The emperor's grandson clearly knew what was going on, but he pretended not to know anything about it, and only whispered to comfort the prince: "Father, this is a matter in the palace. The emperor's grandfather handled it like this, obviously because he didn't want people to know. In this case , let’s just pretend we don’t know anything about it, so as not to make the emperor feel afraid.”

Dragons have reverse scales! Since the emperor has adopted such an attitude, it is better to be sensible.

The prince thought for a while and had to admit that what the emperor said made sense: "Well, let's just wait and see what happens! The truth will come out in as little as five or six days, or as much as one or two months."

The emperor's grandson's eyes flashed and he whispered: "No matter what, this matter seems to be quite beneficial to us. The one who is really worried now is King Yan."

Once Queen Xu fell, King Yan's biggest backer was gone. King Yan alone was no match for their father and son.

As for Princess Changping, she had been stunned by the rape, and she was so focused on plotting how to get rid of Prince Consort Xu that she could not care about what happened in the palace.

The prince's brows also relaxed, he nodded with a smile and said, "You are right. The person who is anxious to find out what happened in Jiaofang Palace is King Yan, we don't have to get involved."

The father and son looked at each other with a tacit understanding and stopped talking about this topic.

The prince suddenly asked: "Ah Yao, do you and Rong Yue get along harmoniously?"

The emperor's grandson heard these words suddenly, and his expression was a little stiff: "Why did your father suddenly ask about this?"

The prince sighed softly: "I shouldn't talk too much about your young couple. However, Rong Yue is not only your wife, but also the only daughter of the British Duke, and also my niece. Don't be too cold towards her. Otherwise , doesn’t it chill the heart of the British government?”

The two have been married for less than two months, but there is not much sweetness in the newlyweds' love. Anyone with eyesight can see it.

The emperor's grandson's face turned slightly red after being scolded by the prince, and he responded in a low voice: "My father is reminding me that my son knows."

After all, it was a private affair between the young couple, so the prince couldn't say much. He just said lightly: "You have to remember that Rong Yue is your original wife. Only when she gives birth to a legitimate son can you accept the concubine as your wife."

The emperor remained silent.

The prince obviously misunderstood and thought he wanted to marry Ling Jingshu as soon as possible.

As everyone knows, this is just his wishful thinking, and Ling Jingshu has no intention of marrying into the prince's house.

With such a big incident happening in Jiaofang Palace, Ling Jingshu would inevitably be implicated. Life in the palace must be very difficult now. I just regret that as a grandson, he didn't dare or could not open his mouth to save her at such a critical moment.

He never expected that Wei Yan really did everything he promised!

…

Prince Yan's Mansion.

The atmosphere in the study room was unusually heavy.

There was no smile on King Yan's handsome face, and his eyes were gloomy. The staff sitting at the bottom also looked solemn.

After a long time, King Yan opened his mouth to break the silence: "The news came out from the palace. It only said that my father has been staying in Jiaofang Palace. The imperial army has blocked Jiaofang Palace. No one can find out what happened inside."

"Tell me, how should I respond now? Should I go into the palace to visit my mother immediately?"

The staff looked at each other, and finally someone spoke up: "I'm afraid it's inappropriate for Your Highness to do this. The situation in the palace is unclear now, and we don't know what happened in the Jiaofang Palace, so he just entered so rashly." Palace, what should I do if I anger the emperor?"

"Yes, Your Highness, please think twice before you act!"

"Perhaps the Queen is suffering from some rare illness. The Emperor was very worried, so he sealed the Jiaofang Palace and accompanied the Queen himself..."

King Yan glanced at the face of the staff member who was not telling the truth. His eyes were full of sarcasm and coldness: "Do you think I am a fool? At this time, you still talk such useless nonsense!"

The staff member's smile froze and he couldn't continue talking.

There are no fools here. The Jiaofang Palace was suddenly blocked, the emperor went on a killing spree in the Jiaofang Palace, and the female officials were imprisoned in the sky prison. All these abnormalities meant one thing.

Something big happened in Jiaofang Palace! The emperor is in the fury of thunder.

That Queen Xu is ill is purely self-comforting nonsense.

King Yan looked at the silence of his staff, and the fire he was holding in his heart burned even more intensely.

What could happen to Queen Xu? The staff didn't know, but he, the son, knew it very well! The few servants he kept must have been noticed by his father!

One can imagine how angry the father would be now.

If he went to the palace to plead for Empress Xu, his father might not be soft-hearted.

But just waiting helplessly like this makes me even more passive!

Queen Xu's position as queen can no longer be preserved. No matter what, I have to ask my father to spare Queen Xu's life. Cover up this scandal tightly. Otherwise, how could he, the King of Yan, have the dignity to go out to meet people in the future? Not to mention fighting for the position of crown prince!

King Yan quickly made a decision: "I will enter the palace to visit my mother now!"

…

The aides couldn't stop what King Yan had decided.

When King Yan walked out of the study, the figure of Princess Yan unexpectedly appeared in front of him, with a firm look on his face: "Your Highness, I will follow you into the palace."

King Yan wanted to refuse, but then he thought that as his daughter-in-law, it was only right for Princess Yan to visit Queen Xu in the palace. It would appear that he was guilty if he did not take Princess Yan with him.

"Okay, you go into the palace with me."

This short sentence moved Princess Yan to tears.

After the excitement of their wedding, King Yan became increasingly cold towards her. She was worried, but there was nothing she could do. This time something happened in Jiaofang Palace, she had been waiting outside the study, hoping that she could impress King Yan.

King Yan was so preoccupied that he did not care about Princess Yan's thoughts. After getting on the carriage, he remained gloomy and silent.

Princess Yan cautiously opened her mouth and asked: "Your Highness, do you know what happened to your mother? Why did your father seal off the Jiaofang Palace and not allow anyone to enter or exit? I also heard that the palace people in the Jiaofang Palace Many died..."

King Yan gave her a cold look, with anger and hostility in his eyes: "Shut up! If you keep talking, get out of here immediately!"

How could he be in the mood to say this at this time!

Princess Yan was so frightened that she didn't dare to say anything anymore, tears welling up in her eyes. But it hasn't fallen yet.

There was a suffocating dullness in the carriage.
