Jiang Shuhua, like Xie Songhua, was so exhausted that she could hardly sit still, but she did not dare to close her eyes for a moment.
She had to wait for the results.
People have been sent out for a long time, but no news has come back.
On the contrary, there was movement from Qianyuan Palace. She didn't know if it was the news she had been waiting for for a long time.
But she didn't care much anymore. The most important thing to her right now was Xie Songhua's life and death.
If Xie Songhua is alive, the prince will be crowned the throne and become the most noble person in the world. Even if he is named the fourth concubine, so what?
There is always a sword hanging over her head, and she will never have peace.
The sound of Xizhu's footsteps slowly came in from outside. Jiang Shuhua was suddenly startled and immediately started fighting.
But because he got up too quickly, his eyes went dark for a while.
Seeing this, Xizhu quickly came over to support her, "Master, don't worry."
"How's it going? Didn't you say you've already started taking action? How come there's no result yet?"
She grabbed Xizhu's hand tightly, and the crackling sound was a problem.
Xizhu's face looked a little ugly, "Yes! I have been keeping a close eye on the situation over there, but..."
"but?!"
Hearing these two words, Jiang Shuhua couldn't help but said, "What other buts are there! What I want is her life, not buts!"
"Eunuch Han has appeared."
"Han..." Jiang Shuhua was about to curse, and then she realized, "Han Jian? What does it have to do with him?"
"Originally, the people who were used were people from Dongchang," Xizhu gritted his teeth. "At this time, only people from Dongchang would attract attention in the palace. That person is Princess Chen after all. Everyone knows that Prince Chen and
Eunuch Han has always been at odds with each other, whether it was because of his instructions or because the people under him made their own decisions, it all makes sense."
Jiang Shuhua understood Xizhu's explanation, but she was so angry that she flew into a rage, "Then what? Was Han Jian discovered? The matter was not done?"
"Six people were arranged, two of them took action, and the others covered it. All of them died."
When Jiang Shuhua said the last three words, she almost collapsed.
This is the palace. Whatever you do, it will inevitably leave traces. She set out to kill Xie Songhua. Even if no one will find her now, how long can she hide it?
Things will come to your door soon, who will it be then?
Xizhu was still explaining, "The two people who did it were poisoned. It seems that it wasn't Eunuch Han's method. It was probably Xie Songhua himself. The other four people died earlier than the two people who did it.
.”
She continued to talk about many things today faithfully and responsibly, but Jiang Shuhua felt that she couldn't listen to a word.
She just thought about what happened to herself, and she didn't know how to deal with it or how to explain it.
Seeing her like this, Xizhu's knees softened and he knelt down, "Master, this slave is not doing things well, please punish me."
"Punishment?" Jiang Shuhua broke away from her hand and fell on a chair nearby. "What's the use of punishing you? Let's think about the punishment I will receive after this matter is exposed!"
"Master, don't worry. I'm already finishing the work. I will definitely not involve my master in this matter. In the past few days, I just need to act as usual."
These words had some effect. Jiang Shuhua raised his eyes and looked at her, "Can you sweep it clean?"
"Yes!" Xizhu was actually not sure, but at this time, she could only say, "Master, don't worry, I will definitely handle the matter beautifully."
Jiang Shuhua waved her hands, her mind was in chaos, and she just wanted to be clean at this time.
But when Xizhu walked to the door, she suddenly asked: "Did something happen over there in Qianyuan Palace?"
"I heard that your Majesty is not well."
This statement made Jiang Shuhua sneer, "I don't know how many times this statement has been spread. How many people in Hegong believe it?"
Xizhu was speechless.
The person who lives in Qianyuan Palace has to do this from time to time.
At first, the prince remembered that everyone in the East Palace would be nervous on the outside but excited secretly.
Later, it happened more often, and no one took it seriously anymore.
Although Xizhu felt that the current situation seemed a little different, he didn't really take it to heart.
Relatively speaking, the prince's reaction was much stronger.
He almost didn't sleep all night and kept waiting in the study.
However, what annoyed him was that Emperor Yufeng still didn't summon him, let alone summon him, and didn't even say a word about him.
This made him start to wonder whether the news was false again.
If something really happened, how could he, the prince, and the next emperor not be called in? That would be a major event involving the future of Daqi.
Several officials from Zhan Shifu also stayed with the palace, nervously waiting for news from Qianyuan Palace.
A whole day passed without any movement.
Strictly speaking, there was no movement at all in the East Palace, but there was quite a bit of movement in the Qianyuan Palace.
Even the pro-military guards began to operate secretly.
This can be considered a sign, but it is not enough.
Just when the prince could hardly sit still, someone finally came.
But it was Han Jian who came.
The eunuch who was the most trusted by Emperor Yufeng had almost never set foot in the East Palace. I don't know whether he avoided suspicion or didn't take the prince seriously.
In short, the prince had a very bad impression of this person, and even had the idea of deposing him as soon as he ascended the throne.
Of course, that is a matter for the future. Now facing Han Jian, the prince is still very cautious and respectful, "How come Eunuch Han has time to come to Ciqing Palace? But what are your orders from the emperor?"
"His Majesty ordered, stop the incident in southern Yunnan, immediately!"
The prince simply thought that he had heard wrongly, and looked up at Han Jian in surprise, "Eunuch Han, this matter..."
He hesitated for a moment, then suddenly stopped, as if hesitating on what to say.
The expression on Han Jian's face remained unchanged for thousands of years, "Your Highness can go to Qianyuan Palace to inquire in person. Han will never dare to falsely convey the Holy Will."
He is Han Jian, and when he stands up, he represents Emperor Yufeng.
And this person has truly never taken sides. No matter when he faced Lao San before or when he faced him, he always behaved with the same wanton attitude.
Even facing Xiao Yu, this dead eunuch was as tough as a stone.
The prince knew that it was his confidence that allowed him to say these words.
But this matter in southern Yunnan...
He really couldn't figure it out and couldn't understand the meaning of Emperor Yufeng's move.
"Does Eunuch Han know the inside story?"
"Han is just doing things according to His Majesty's instructions. As for the underlying reasons behind His Majesty's orders, Your Majesty won't tell you, so Han doesn't dare to speculate."
With this answer again, the prince was almost furious.
This dead eunuch really doesn't take him seriously at all. He is the prince, doesn't he even have this little right to know?
He is not one of Emperor Yufeng’s subordinates!
I was thinking this in my heart, but I didn't dare to show any clues on my face.
The expression on Han Jian's face never changed. He just made sure that the prince understood the purpose of his trip, and then said calmly: "Your Majesty has told you that Han has been brought here. Please hurry up, otherwise... I'm afraid something big will happen."
Son."
After saying this, he bowed respectfully and then withdrew.
The prince was so angry that he immediately smashed a pen and washed it. Since he had to do it quickly, since he had to do it immediately, why not do it with such an attitude!
He had to admit that even if the Qianyuan Palace was in chaos, he would not dare to disobey Emperor Yufeng's order.
An official of Zhan Shifu said nervously: "Your Highness, this matter in western Yunnan has been planned for so long. If we give up now, we will fall short of the success! Could it be that..."
"How dare you disobey me?" the prince said coldly, and immediately told the official to shut up.
