The second prince ordered a sedan chair to be prepared. After a short while, everything was ready and several people set off in the sedan chair.
Mrs. Feng was watching secretly from a distance. Why was the emperor coming to the mansion at this time?
It’s so late, why don’t you stay in the palace and wander around?
No, I have to tell my benefactor.
It’s not that Madam Feng is stupid, but she never wanted the second prince to be the crown prince. She didn’t want to enter the palace, even though it looked magnificent and luxurious.
However, there is no freedom there, it's almost like being in prison.
And what she desires most is freedom!
What's more, if the second prince becomes the emperor, there will be a constant influx of new people into the harem. Nothing lasts forever. She has no background and relies on the love of men. Humph!
So her ending was to die of old age in the palace. No, she might not live to old age.
It is far less comfortable than being a concubine in the palace.
Madam Feng whispered a few words in the ear of her personal maid, who listened and hurriedly disappeared into the night.
…
Heng Yue was sitting in the sedan chair. He stuck his head out to look outside and saw Xiao Hanyi's sedan chair in front.
He beckoned, and his personal attendant approached. He whispered, "Hurry up and go to Maoer Hutong. Tell the people there that the emperor is coming."
The followers obeyed the order and left quietly.
Xiao Hanyi's sudden move disrupted all his plans. This woman was a chess piece to overthrow the queen. If used well, she might be able to deal a fatal blow to Xiao Conghui.
But, this is fine, this is fine...
At this moment, Xiao Hanyi in the sedan chair felt his heart unconsciously tense, and many memories flooded into his mind. At that time, he had just been caught up in the struggle for the throne. With Wang Shi managing the palace for him, he could deal with the outside affairs with peace of mind. With Chun'er by his side, he could relax a little after returning home.
Tyrant Daddy, have you thought it through? How will you face Chun'er?
[She is your white moonlight, and you are the young man in her heart. Now that she has become like this, how should she face you? ]
【When you met, what did you say? 】
What if she says that Queen Wang harmed her? What about Big Brother? Big Brother can't have a cruel and ruthless mother. How would he face the people of the world?
beep!
Xiao Hanyi felt a chill. Yes, if that were the case, what would happen to the eldest prince?
No, his eldest prince cannot be implicated. Xiao Hanyi made up his mind that no matter what the outcome, he must protect the eldest prince. This is the candidate for the crown prince whom he has carefully cultivated, and nothing must happen to him.
He slowly closed his eyes. Actually, he already had the answer in his heart, but he just didn't want to believe it.
Back then, he also wanted to conduct a thorough investigation, but he didn't dare to do so because he couldn't allow a scandal to occur in his house.
There were occasional pedestrians outside, and some shops on the street had their lights on. The capital was quiet, with a gentle breeze blowing, but Xiao Hanyi's heart was not at peace.
......
At this time, in a two-story courtyard in Maoer Hutong, a woman was sitting quietly.
This person is Chun'er, Xiao Hanyi's favorite concubine back then.
Someone just told her that Xiao Hanyi was coming this way and wanted to see her.
Over the years, she has learned many unorthodox things from a weirdo. She has hatred in her heart. She hates Queen Wang and even more so Xiao Hanyi.
Back then, when Queen Wang pushed her into the water, Xiao Hanyi did not conduct a thorough investigation. He even just listened to that bitch's words and let Queen Wang handle her funeral regardless of whether she was really dead or not.
Queen Wang finally had a chance and set a fire. Fortunately, a rain saved her life, but her face was burned beyond recognition.
For so many years, she has never looked in the mirror once. In the past, she was the most beautiful woman in the mansion.
And her unborn child...
Tonight, she will meet Xiao Hanyi. She will finally have the chance to see him.
Chun'er held the poisonous scorpion tightly in her hand, with a sharp light in her eyes.
......
Half an hour later, Xiao Hanyi and his group stopped at the gate of the two-entry courtyard.
"Your Majesty, the woman is inside," Heng Yue said with a salute.
[No, Tyrant Daddy, there is murderous intent, she wants to kill you]
Xiao Jiayun shouted loudly. She couldn't speak now, so she could only whimper and cry, and her loud voice broke the silence.
The little princess suddenly started crying and Hengyue was startled.
Xiao Hanyi took a deep breath and thought to himself, she wants to kill me?
Could it be that she hates me?
Pure.
The Second Prince heard Xiao Jiayun's thoughts and strode in front of Xiao Hanyi. "Father, I don't know where this woman came from. Why don't you let me go meet her first?"
"Second brother, it's dangerous for you to go. It's better to have someone search her body. That way it's safer."
The second prince glanced at the fourth princess in Xiao Hanyi's arms. This child is quite smart.
He cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, if you want to see her, you may. To ensure your safety, have the guards search her first."
Xiao Hanyi glared at him and said, "Son, you listen to your sister, but can you be more careful? Who is she to let the guards search her?"
The Second Prince didn't sense Xiao Hanyi's dissatisfaction at all and continued, "I think this woman is quite scary. She's acting weird and doesn't seem like a normal person. What if she knows some evil magic and hurts my father?"
He was not sure if he could protect Xiao Hanyi.
Xiao Hanyi thought for a moment and said, "No need. You hold the Fourth Princess and I'll go see her."
He never believed that the woman inside would hurt him. They were so beautiful once.
Heng Yue was worried. What the Second Prince said made sense. What if that woman hurt the Emperor? But then he changed his mind and thought, she was just a weak woman. It would be better to just give the Emperor more guards.
Xiao Jiayun had a feeling that something must have happened, otherwise she wouldn't react so strongly.
When Xiao Hanyi handed Xiao Jiayun over to the Second Prince, Xiao Jiayun shouted, "No, no, the tyrant father is in real danger."
Xiao Hanyi ignored him and went into the yard.
His heart beat faster and faster. He entered the second door and saw a woman's back.
Next to the woman, there was a table with a teapot and cups on it, steaming. Next to it was an open basin with a few flower buds floating on it, and in the basin were unopened lotus flowers...
Xiao Hanyi's eyes were slightly red. Chun'er used to wait for him to come back like this.
Now, he was almost certain that the woman in front of him was Chun'er from that year. She was not dead, so why didn't she come to find him for so many years?
"Your Highness is back?"
The woman spoke.
She had said the same thing before.
Xiao Hanyi was stunned, "Chun'er, is that you?"
The woman's body trembled noticeably. "Your Highness looks a little tired."
In the past, after she finished what she said just now, she would use her hands to gently rub his frowning brows, but this time, she did not move.
Xiao Hanyi stared at Chun'er, tears glistening in his eyes, "Why? Why don't you come to me?"
Humph! Chun'er snorted in her heart, afraid that she would be killed by Queen Wang before she even showed up!
"Why should I look for you?"
One sentence made the air freeze.
