She is now the focus of observation, so not long after Baili Feiyue returned to the general's mansion, the person reporting was already standing in front of Emperor Jing in the imperial study.
When the person reporting went down.
Emperor Jing said coldly, "She is so confident that she knows I will not kill her now. She destroyed the eyes of four imperial guards with one move! What a jerk!"
Chang Sun Jue, who had been standing at the side, spoke up, "Father, please calm down. She did this to make you unhappy."
Emperor Jing knew it very well.
But Ling Jing is really taking advantage of the situation to climb up the ladder!
Yes, now is the time to use General Ling Sheng. He will not do anything to her.
But he is the emperor, and he has plenty of ways to make her suffer neither life nor death!
Chang Sun Jue glanced at him and said, "Father, can't we enter the Regent's Palace? We don't know what Ling Jing said or did in there, but I think something is wrong."
As soon as he mentioned this, Emperor Jing's face became even uglier.
Although he had people surround the outside of the Regent's Palace, he did not dare to send anyone inside.
Who knows what else is inside his ninth brother's palace? It is no exaggeration to say that the Regent's Palace is a den of dragons and tigers for him at this moment.
He had already made it clear that it was impossible to destroy the entire palace or burn it down to give others a reason to criticize him. At least he couldn't do that in the short term.
What's more.
"You think I've never let anyone in?"
He did not send anyone in openly, but in fact he sent someone to secretly investigate the night after the military camp incident.
None of those who left came back!
He is now in need of people in all aspects, and he cannot let the few people he has waste in the Regent's Palace.
Chang Sun Jue understood as soon as he heard what he said.
"How many people are there in the Ninth Prince's mansion?"
Emperor Jing's eyes were dark, "Not only in the palace, he has not relied on the Jinyiwei in the past few years, nor on his own martial arts."
Sun Jue's eyes flickered slightly. "If the remaining forces of the Ninth Prince are so powerful, we will not be able to rest assured if we don't get rid of them. However, we don't even know what form those remaining forces exist in. It may not be easy to find them in a short time, unless..."
"Unless there is a reason for those who are loyal to him to come out no matter what!" Emperor Jing continued with a fierce look in his eyes, "Ling Jing is not important enough. This reason can only be that one."
Changsun Wuji’s only bloodline, Changsun Qing!
"You haven't found out where the child is yet?"
Chang Sun Jue said ashamedly, "I am incompetent."
Emperor Jing snorted, "It's normal that you won't be able to find out about the people he placed in a short time."
Chang Sun Jue was thinking about something else, "Father, is it possible that Ling Jing knows the whereabouts of Chang Sun Qing?"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Jing narrowed his eyes. Is it possible?
Even if his ninth brother liked Ling Jing, could he trust her enough to tell her the whereabouts of Chang Sun Qing?
But suddenly I felt a chill all over my body and thought of a fatal and important question.
"Why did Changsun Wuji suddenly send Changsun Qing away!"
When Emperor Jingdi said this, Changsun Jue felt his scalp tingling as he thought of something.
Emperor Jing said to himself again, "It shouldn't be that way, it shouldn't be that way. Even the Queen Mother confirmed that the body was his. And his arm was almost chopped off when so many people saw it..."
Having said that, Emperor Jing's entire state has completely changed.
After that, I had no intention of discussing any issues with Changsun Jue.
The whole person was in a trance.
After a while, Changsun Jue came out of the imperial study and went directly to Weiyang Palace to meet Concubine Hui.
Concubine Hui is now in high spirits and is once again at the peak of her popularity.
Ling Sheng became famous, and as Ling Sheng's only sister, her fame naturally rose along with him.
That’s not all. More importantly, among all the sons of Emperor Jing, after the regent Zhangsun Wuji got into trouble, the only one whom Emperor Jing summoned to the palace to discuss state affairs was Zhangsun Jue.
What does this mean?
Therefore, the current Concubine Hui, even if she is the Queen, only had to consider her expression 30% before, but now she needs to consider her expression 70%!
Even the sick empress dowager was kind and polite to her when she saw her.
At this moment, when he heard that Changsun Jue was coming, he smiled happily, "Hurry up and let Jue'er in."
Soon, Changsun Jue walked in.
Concubine Hui hurriedly asked someone to set up a large table with various heat-reducing foods that Changsun Jue liked to eat.
Chang Sun Jue did not eat those things, but recounted the situation of Baili Feiyue reported by Emperor Jing's spy.
Concubine Hui frowned slightly, "From my point of view, Ling Jing would not do anything without a reason. Now that Chang Sunqing is not in the Regent's Palace, she is so cold-hearted that she would not accept your father's order just to visit Madam Kang."
"I think so too. After all, she couldn't have failed to guess what the emperor was thinking when he asked her to deliver the decree."
Concubine Hui tapped her charming red nails on the table. "If I'm not mistaken, she is trying to contact the shadow guards in the Regent's Palace, or the remaining forces left by the Regent."
"What do you think we should do, mother?"
Concubine Hui smiled mysteriously, "We don't need to do anything right now, just wait."
It’s best to wait until both sides suffer losses.
"I understand. But..." Chang Sun Jue looked at her, "There is still something strange about the death of the Ninth Prince."
"Strange?" Concubine Hui frowned again when she heard this. "How strange?"
Changsun Jue then told Emperor Jing all his and Emperor Jing's suspicions.
"Is this the reason why Chang Sunqing suddenly left the Regent Palace..."
Concubine Hui suddenly picked up the tea with a contented look and said, "It is extremely normal for our regent to do such things on a daily basis." After all, for a man like him, it would be normal for him to suddenly send Zhang Sunqing away or even kill her.
Even though Chang Sunqing is his biological son.
"Let's take an analogy. Let's assume that he wanted to send Chang Sunqing away. Your father and your uncle's plan this time was within his control. So, what was his reason for doing this? He couldn't be playing a trick on them, right?"
Chang Sun Jue couldn't understand this.
Yes, even his unpredictable uncle the Ninth Prince would not do things without reason.
Even if it is a spur of the moment thing, there must be a reason for it.
If he really wanted this world and that throne, why would he go around in such a roundabout way?
Just like what we did to the late emperor before learning, how rough and satisfying!
Others might consider other justifications, but his Ninth Uncle never needs to!
And his father, including his uncle, General Ling, were definitely not the people that the Ninth Prince was willing to play around with.
Although he didn't want to say it, that was how he felt.
Be it his father or his uncle General Ling, neither of them is worthy of the attention of his Ninth Uncle!
Concubine Hui concluded, "So, this regent may have really fallen this time. After all, he is not heaven, not a god. Naturally, there are things that are unpredictable. For example, Ling Jing, I think, should be an absolute accident in his life. Brother is not a waste, and it is not easy to play any tricks under brother's eyes. This time, perhaps you and the emperor thought too much. It is normal for others and for Zhangsun Wuji, but because it happened not long before this incident, you have become frightened birds."
"Now, the one you should pay attention to is Ling Jing. As you said before, you don't know what happened in the palace, and after leaving the palace, she didn't go anywhere else, but went straight back to the general's mansion. It's her that makes me feel abnormal!"
Even though that little bitch Ling Jing is my brother's bloodline, her scheming is far more sinister than her brother's.
How is it possible to be so indifferent after suffering such a loss!
Chang Sun Jue nodded.
The two talked for a while, and Concubine Hui asked casually, "How is Princess Beimo?"
Chang Sun Jue's face instantly lost all its cheerfulness.
When Concubine Hui saw his expression, she knew everything.
I was also very disgusted with her. "She doesn't know what's good for her, so let her fend for herself. Just treat her like a dog and give her food and drink. If she doesn't want to give birth to your children, I will select a few tomorrow and let the queen give them to you. You should hurry up now. If you have another child, it will only benefit you now."
"I understand, son."
Concubine Hui said harshly, "Even if I give you a woman in the name of the queen, she is still just a concubine. The child is definitely not as legitimate as the one conceived by the Princess Beimo, the legal wife, but it is better to have one than not."
A hint of viciousness flashed across Chang Sun Jue's eyes again.
He was extremely disgusted and resentful towards Tuoba Liya.
She is indeed an ungrateful woman...ha!
Chang Sun Jue didn't expect that he just needed a child, so he left Concubine Hui and returned home from the palace.
In the distance, there was a surprise waiting for him at the gate of the mansion.
