The paranoid prince is crazy, but I have been quietly reborn

Chapter 98 Just take a look at their dog eating dog

The seventh day when Prince Chu Wen went to Zizhou.

Chu Wen, who had been pretending to be in Zixiang Mountain for a few days, was about to leave for Kyoto. At this moment, the guards and troops outside the inn were making preparations for the return journey.

Chu Wen stood in front of the guest room window of the inn, with a lot of thoughts in his mind. After the Zizhou matter was settled, there would be a Mid-Autumn Festival family dinner, at which time the queen would propose to the emperor to choose a concubine for the prince.

He knew that the Queen already had a candidate for the Crown Princess in mind, and Chu Wen had no choice but to obey.

Just in the past few days since he came to Zizhou, his mind always flashed in his mind about a woman wearing palace clothes who was neither humble nor overbearing in the main hall, proving her innocence. It was Su Youning!

"Prince, we have all the troops and horses ready, do you want to set off back to Beijing?"

A guard coming to Zizhou interrupted Chu Wen's thoughts.

Chu Wen estimated the time. He set off at this moment and arrived in Kyoto within the time given by his father. By then, the evidence brought back in his hands and the evidence found by the Lian Wangfu would bring the Zizhou incident to a successful conclusion.

"Pass this king's order and return to Kyoto."

Xishan, who had already been ambushing Zizhou, calculated the time just right.

Xishan had already received an order from Kyoto, and everyone had to stand still and could only take action on Chu Wen's way back.

As a result, Empress Lu, who was waiting in Kyoto, had no time to plan for Chu Wen. They had to take on the Zizhou matter if they didn't want to.

Prince Chu Wen was robbed and killed on his way back to Kyoto. He was seriously injured and could not move. When the news was quickly transmitted back to Kyoto, it was already the ninth day of the deadline given by the emperor.

Kunning Hall of the Imperial Palace.

Empress Lu held the secret letter in her hand and after reading its contents, she was so angry that her head ached. She took off her armor and threw it aside, rubbing her brows lightly.

At this moment, she was really disappointed with Chu Wen!

It was just a superficial trip to Zizhou, with guards and an army, but he was robbed and killed on the way back to Beijing.

Although his life was saved, he was seriously injured and had to be detained in Zizhou. More importantly, the evidence produced in Zizhou was also destroyed.

If it were said that all this was a coincidence, Queen Lu would not believe it!

It's just that the matter in Zizhou is imminent, and even if someone interferes with it, now is not the time to dwell on it.

Seeing that tomorrow is the ten-day period given by the emperor, there is still no clue about what happened in Zizhou.

The original plan was that when Chu Wen returned to Beijing, the people who stayed in Kyoto on the ninth day would search the Lian Palace and search the original gold. After Chu Wen arrived in Kyoto, he would bring out the evidence of Zizhou and give Chu Lian a decision.

The grave crime of secretly digging for gold.

But now this matter is really difficult to handle.

Chu Wen cannot return to Kyoto in time with the evidence. Should the people from the Prince's Palace enter the Prince's Palace to search the palace or not?

If only the original gold is found, without corresponding evidence, the emperor may not be able to pass the test. And although Chu Wen said that he has agreed with Chu Lian to let him take the blame, this private gold mining is a serious crime that will lose his head.

They cannot be convicted and sentenced to death. When Chu Lian bites back, it will be their doom.

Chu Wen took on this case in front of the emperor to show his talent, so even if Chu Wen was not around, the matter in Zizhou would have to be investigated by people from the Prince's Mansion.

"Mother Su!"

Queen Lu called her loudly, and Aunt Su quickly bowed in.

"Queen, this old slave is here."

Empress Lu had a headache and rubbed her eyebrows again.

"Go and light one of the pills Su Youning sent. I will have a severe headache."

Mother Su nodded immediately, took out the pills from the brocade box on the side and lit them in the incense burner.

The faint medicinal fragrance spread instantly in the bedroom.

Empress Lu had a splitting headache just now, but now she felt a little relieved and her whole body felt more relaxed.

After letting out a long sigh, Empress Lu decided to settle the matter in Zizhou today and gave her instructions softly.

"Mother Su, send someone to deliver a letter to Duke Wan, saying that I have something to discuss with you."

Aunt Su responded, bowed and retreated.

Empress Lu read the secret letter again, and her face, which had improved slightly before, became anxious again. She stood up and walked to the burning candle. She placed the secret letter on the flame and watched it burn up.

Prince Yu's Mansion.

As soon as Xishan succeeded in Zizhou, he immediately sent the news back to Prince Yu's Mansion.

Chu Yu looked at the news from Zizhou with a rare smile on his face.

"It's true that this palace's arrangement was not in vain."

Zelan frowned and asked.

"Master, Chu Wen is injured and cannot return to Kyoto in time. Chu Lian may not be able to escape this disaster."

Chu Yu handed the note filled with news to the burning candle on the desk. The flames quickly spread and engulfed the note. He sneered.

"Do you think the queen will let him go easily?"

The two fires designed by Chu Yu have already burned Empress Lu and Concubine Ling, Chu Wen and Chu Lian. Once there is a rift between the two parties who do not trust each other, it will be difficult to repair.

Moreover, when Chu Wen left the capital, Chu Lian had already known what the crown prince and Queen An were thinking.

If Empress Lu's faction did not take this opportunity to convict Chu Lian, they would have left behind a rival Chu Lian who knew many of their secrets.

Therefore, Chu Yu was very sure that Queen Lu would definitely take action, and it would be today.

Zeelan thought for a moment and asked again.

"Then do we need to send someone to add fuel to the flames?"

Chu Yu rubbed his white jade finger with a sullen face, and then slowly raised his hand after a long while.

"No, if the queen has no ability and Chu Lian happens to be able to save his life, I would like to see how dog bites dog they are."

"In addition, I also want to see what Chu Nan is capable of when he suddenly returns to Kyoto."

After Shen Moli told him about the incident in Zizhou and how the prince would frame Chu Lian, he sent people to start watching Chu Lian. Naturally, he knew about the collusion between Chu Nan and Chu Lian.

Originally, Chu Yu also ignored Chu Nan. It seemed that Chu Nan was very scheming about the Zizhou incident, so he returned to Kyoto and quietly started to gather connections.

Chu Yu is not in a hurry, he also wants to see how capable Chu Nan is and whether he can stir up trouble in Kyoto!

Zelan suddenly understood after listening to Chu Yu's analysis.

"yes!"

Su Youning brought a medical bag to check Chu Yu's pulse.

Because of the rumors that a good thing was done, Su Youning had free access to Prince Yu's Mansion and no one dared to stop him.

Chu Yu's main courtyard has always been unguarded, because everyone in the mansion knew that no one could approach the main courtyard without Chu Yu's order.

Everyone has long been accustomed to Su Youning coming in and out of the main courtyard at any time. She just walked into the main courtyard and was about to call Zelan to ask Chu Yu for permission.

The next second, she heard Chu Yu's words about wanting to see Chu Nan's abilities.

Su Youning paused for a second, stood in the center of the courtyard, and spoke calmly.

"Your Highness, I'm here to check your pulse!"

After a while, Zelan came out and said respectfully.

"Princess, please come in."

Su Youning nodded slightly and followed Zelan into the study.

Chu Yu had been carried by Zelan and sat on a soft couch.

His legs were naturally placed on the soft couch, his left elbow rested on a soft pillow, and he looked slightly sideways at the window to the left. The black hair hanging down on the right side made his side face vaguely visible.

Zelan has long been accustomed to bringing Su Youning in and then retreating.

Su Youning silently stepped forward, knelt down and lifted Chu Yu's right wrist onto the pulse bag with her soft, boneless hands.

After carefully checking the pulse, Su Youning gently lifted Chu Yu's outer robe, and then rolled up the hems of Chu Yu's trousers to above his knees.

The wound on the knee has healed, but the scar from the stitches remains.

"Your Highness, the knee wound is healing very well, and you will be able to do standing training in one month."

Su Youning arranged Chu Yu's robe and trousers and said calmly.

Chu Yu suddenly turned his head and looked at Su Youning with red lips and white teeth with cold eyes.

"There is a family banquet held in the palace during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Would you like to enter the palace?"
