Jun Jiuji walked to Xiao Ning'er and gently hugged her into his arms.
"What's wrong?"
Ye Yining raised her eyes to look at him, reaching out and lightly poking his cold handsome face.
"What kind of courtyard does Xiao Ning'er like? How about we buy a separate courtyard in Guiyun City?"
Ye Yining nodded, "Okay! Did you just buy a house with King Xian?"
"I just accompanied the emperor to visit a few places first. Our house, choose a place you like."
"I can do it."
In fact, she is willing to stay in an inn.
Jun Jiuji knew what Xiao Ning'er was thinking, so he explained: "We want to buy a house so that people can know that we live here with peace of mind and have no plans to return to the capital for the time being."
Ye Yining quickly understood.
"Then let's choose a stronger one, otherwise it won't be able to withstand the wind and snow."
"I'll take you to see it tomorrow."
"Okay! Do you have any other news from the capital?"
Jun Jiuji gently rubbed her head, "Your father will escort my father and mother's Zi Palace to the imperial mausoleum in three days. Your mother plans to move to the village closest to the imperial mausoleum to take care of your father. Your eldest brother is here
Monan hasn't come back yet. Now, like us, we can't go back for the time being."
"What about the situation in the palace?"
Ye Yining felt that Jun Jiuji might know something.
It's just that he didn't want to worry himself, so he didn't say anything.
Jun Jiuji's hand holding Xiao Ning'er tightened slightly, and she said warmly: "The palace is very chaotic, and there are many different imperial decrees for passing the throne."
Ye Yining was stunned.
"A lot of imperial decrees?"
Jun Jiuji nodded, "Yes, after my father passed away, Eunuch Fu also followed my father. But when Eunuch Fu died, he was clutching an imperial edict of succession in his hand. The edict specified that three people should be given the throne.
The prince inherits the throne."
"But there was also an imperial decree in the royal study room, and the heir to the throne was the prince."
Ye Yining took a breath. Different heirs to the throne would really cause chaos.
Jun Jiuji continued: "Below the dragon chair in the Qiankun Hall, there is also an imperial edict to pass on the throne. The person chosen as the successor to the throne is me."
"This... so much?"
Ye Yining was a little confused.
"That's not all."
Jun Jiuji held Xiao Ning'er's hand and said in a serious tone: "The Queen Mother has also returned to the palace. She also has an imperial decree in her hand, and the eighth prince is the successor to the throne."
Ye Yining was slightly shocked, "Shouldn't the Queen Mother be on the side of the third prince?"
All along, not only she thinks this way, but also the entire Northern Han Country thinks this way!
What is the old witch the Queen Mother doing this time?
Jun Jiuji was silent for a while before saying: "The Empress Dowager told the outside world that the Emperor asked her to leave the palace to recuperate, in fact, in order to protect the true imperial decree of passing the throne. Now, one-third of the people in the court are facing the Empress Dowager and have changed their support to eight
The prince’s.”
"Is this the imperial edict of passing the throne?"
Jun Jiuji chuckled softly, feeling a little sarcastic and said: "Also, General An also has an imperial decree in his hand. Guess who is the heir to the throne?"
Ye Yining was shocked again.
She thought for a while and then said: "The candidate in General An's imperial edict may be something no one has ever thought of. He's not the prince, right?"
Jun Jiuji nodded, "Yes, he is not the prince. But he is also related to the prince."
"That's...the baby?"
After telling her this guess, she looked at Jun Jiuji without blinking.
She really hoped she was wrong.
However, next, Jun Jiuji nodded towards her.
"Yes. The imperial edict says that my father is extremely disappointed with all the princes, so I hope that General An and Taishi Wen will train the emperor's grandson well... The prince will temporarily supervise the country. When the emperor's grandson is five years old, the prince will return to power..."
Ye Yining frowned slightly, "Can the prince still supervise the country?"
The prince was seriously injured last time and was basically on the verge of death.
Even if he is rescued, I'm afraid he will still be a cripple now!
Jun Jiuji knew what Xiao Ning'er was thinking, and whispered: "The prince was cured by the ghost doctor. Although he has not recovered to his previous condition, he is not disabled."
Ye Yining was very surprised, "It's that ghost doctor again?"
Who is this ghost doctor?
While the two were talking, Xue Ying's voice suddenly came from the door.
"Master, there is news from the capital that Princess Yan Hua had a quarrel with the fourth princess and killed the fourth princess with a sword. The fourth prince was so angry that he killed Princess Yan Hua with a sword. The prince then had the fourth prince poisoned."
Ye Yining looked at Jun Jiuji in shock, "Is this the beginning of the palace coup?"
Jun Jiuji touched her head soothingly, "Don't be afraid!"
This is just the beginning!
His father tried every possible means to get him and Xiao Ning'er to leave, probably to avoid these things.
Ye Yining sighed softly, feeling a little complicated.
Although all the people who died were unrelated to her, Princess Yan Hua was even a person she hated.
However, the scene of compatriots killing each other is indeed a bit cruel.
There was chaos in the palace, and Ye Yining began to worry about her father again.
Originally, the only people sent to the imperial mausoleum were the Emperor and Queen Lan, but now, several more people will be added.
After thinking about it, she wrote a letter, served it with sweet-scented osmanthus cake again, and put it in the trading room.
Then, she adjusted the transaction number plate at the location of the General's Mansion again.
However, she waited for two hours and did not wait until her mother entered the trading room.
She had no choice but to take the letter and things back.
Before going to bed, she tried again.
This time, she didn't wait long before she saw her mother come in.
My mother's condition didn't look good. She was very pale in plain clothes, and there was some dirt on her knees at the hem of her skirt.
Ye Yining's heart suffocated, and his eyes instantly became wet.
I don’t know if there is some kind of telepathy between mother and daughter. Mrs. Ye, who was in the trading room, suddenly raised her head and looked somewhere.
"Ning'er, mother is fine, don't worry."
"Mom, I just want you to be well. I hope you and Prince Ji are safe outside!"
After saying that, she put down a letter, then picked up the plate of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, hid it in her wide sleeves, and hurried out.
Ye Yining rubbed his eyes and quickly took out the letter.
When he opened the letter, what appeared was his father's notes.
"Ning'er, dad is going to the imperial mausoleum in three days..."
"Your uncle will first send your mother to the Soul Shou Village at the foot of the imperial mausoleum tomorrow. Then, your uncle's family will also stay in the Shou Ling Village together..."
"I wrote a letter to your elder brother and asked him to go directly to Jiuhan Pass to find you..."
"Also, several major events happened in the palace today. First, Princess Yan Hua, the fourth princess, and the fourth prince died. Just an hour ago, the sixth prince fell into the lake drunk. He probably won't survive tomorrow..."
"Ning'er, you and King Ji must pay attention to safety outside, because there is an imperial decree that the heir to the throne is King Ji, so someone might come all the way to assassinate you..."
After Ye Yining read the letter, she once again felt the blood and terror of the change of imperial power.
Jun Jiuji had just come over after taking a shower and saw Xiao Ning'er holding a letter in a daze, so she took it over and took a look.
After reading the content, he said in a calm tone: "Some people can't wait any longer. It's okay, if they all die, it will calm down."
Ye Yining looked at Jun Jiuji blankly, not knowing what to say.
Jun Jiuji raised her hand to cover Xiao Ning'er's clear eyes and said softly: "It's not that I'm cruel, it's that they are too scary!"
