Volume Four: Blue Butterfly Chapter 234: The Identity of the Masked Woman
Hang Tianyi said: "Queen, Wei Chen's speculation is certainly reasonable!"
When the empress heard this, she just snorted coldly. This was her best chance to bring down Concubine Xiao.
Chen Yujing was able to calm down just now and thought of this. At this time, Zhang Chenyu had already unlocked the formation. He knelt on the ground and said in a cry: "Father, I was indeed threatened by others, so I had to do what I did."
For these, such serious crimes, I don’t ask my father for forgiveness, I just ask my father to find out the person behind the scenes and let him be punished!”
"Sir, who is behind the scenes?" Chen Junmo looked angry. How could he not know what kind of virtue his own son was?
"Er Chen... Er Chen doesn't know that every time she meets her, her face is covered, but she is just a woman! She threatens Er Chen that if he doesn't follow her instructions, she will kill him
My mother, concubine, and sons and ministers are helpless!" Chen Yujing cried very aggrieved.
Hang Tianyi sighed secretly, it turns out that "crying" is not only a weapon for women, but also seems to be quite effective when used by men.
After hearing this, Chen Junmo's expression finally softened a bit. No matter what, this reason makes sense. The most important thing is that Chen Yujing showed some filial piety, and everything was for his mother and concubine.
"Hmph, you mother and son, you really don't know which sentence is true and which sentence is false. If so, why did Concubine Xiao just quibble?" These words of the Empress hit the key point.
But at this time, what Chen Junmo wanted was a reason. As for the process, it didn't matter.
"I don't even know who is threatening you. You are really my good son. What a coward!"
Chen Junmo seemed to be scolding Chen Yujing, but in fact everyone knew that after saying this, it was already certain that Chen Yujing was fine.
At this time, Chen Yujing lowered his head, but there was a sharp look in his eyes. He was scheming the city, and he knew Chen Junmo's true story, so he naturally knew that he had escaped.
"It's actually not difficult to find this person!" Hang Tianyi said.
These words made Chen Yujing himself stunned, because he really didn't know who the masked woman was.
Chen Yujing had only one idea in cooperating with him, which was to move to the Queen and use Chen Junmo's fear of the Wang family to isolate Chen Qian, which would greatly reduce his chances of being established as the crown prince.
For a person like Chen Yujing, those who cooperate with him naturally want to find out the details. However, recently, many ministers in the court who did not take sides have turned to Chen Qian, which forced him to step down.
Of the policy.
Moreover, during the cooperation, Chen Yujing was also secretly checking the identity of the masked woman, but unfortunately found nothing.
"Do you know the identity of the person behind the scenes?" Chen Junmo was also stunned. Of course, he knew Hang Tianyi's ability to investigate cases.
Hang Tianyi took out the hairpin he picked up at the exit and said, "This was left by the murderer when he fled the scene. Wei Chen took a look at it and found that this thing is very valuable. Most people can't afford it. Only the palace
Only the concubines inside have it, because it represents status. As long as you find the owner of this hairpin, you can find the person behind it!"
"The owner of the hairpin?" Chen Junmo glanced at it. He was not good at these things, so he could only let the queen take a look.
The queen looked at it carefully for a while, frowned and said: "This kind of hairpin, also known as Tonghua hairpin, is something from the late emperor's period. In the past twenty years, no one in the palace has this kind of hairpin!"
"
"Things from the late emperor's time?" Chen Jun couldn't help but be stunned.
The queen nodded: "Yes, and there are only three tung flower hairpins. One of them has been buried with the Queen Mother, one is in the royal treasury, and the other one seems to have been given to a certain old princess!
"
"In other words, the mastermind behind all this is an old princess? But now in the palace, all the old people have died one after another!" Princess Changping said.
Hang Tianyi said: "Your Highness the Princess forgot, there is another place!"
"Leng Gong!" Gongsun Shengxue replied.
At this moment, everyone was stunned. Isn't this the cold palace?
"It seems that the Qing family already knows who it is?" Chen Junmo's voice was gentle. For what happened today, no matter who in the cold palace was conspiring with Chen Yujing, they can definitely put the blame on her.
In this way, there are still people in the harem who can check and balance the queen, and there will be a relative balance between the princes.
The most critical point in the art of emperors is how to control balance and how to control the balance point.
Gongsun Shengxue, of course, didn't know who owned this Tonghua hairpin, so he looked at Hang Tianyi.
Hang Tianyi said: "This can be regarded as a coincidence! Wei Chen went to investigate the case, but one day he saw a very warm scene in the cold palace. It was an old man lying on the lap of a middle-aged woman. At that time, Wei Chen
I then discovered the hairpin the old man was wearing. If she hadn't left too hastily tonight, why would she have left the hairpin at the entrance of the cave below?"
"Who is it?" Chen Junmo's voice sounded stern.
"It's an old concubine in the cold palace!" Hang Tianyi said.
Regarding this old concubine Shu, it seems that both Chen Junmo and the empress knew each other.
"It's her!" The queen's eyes showed such a look.
Hang Tianyi quickly realized that it seemed that the old man's entry into the cold palace was related to the fact that the princess gave birth to a butterfly.
It's just that the matter of turning into a butterfly is related to the reputation of the royal family, so many things have been concealed.
"Take me over and have a look!" Chen Junmo's expression was much sharper than before.
Hang Tianyi nodded and the group of people walked forward. At this time, the crazy concubines in the cold palace swarmed towards them.
Fortunately, Meng Zhengfeng's Yulin Army easily fended them off again.
There are many concubines here, all of them belong to Chen Junmo. I don’t know what he thought when he saw the scene in front of him at this time.
The old concubine Shu's residence is quite orderly in this cold palace.
Meng Zhengfeng ordered several subordinates to come forward and open the courtyard door. The entire courtyard was completely dark.
At this time, someone shouted: "Someone has fainted here!"
Brother Yu Linjun brought the man over, but it was Lin Xia who was serving the old concubine Shu.
Why did this middle-aged woman faint in the corner?
At this moment, lights were on in several rooms, and figures of people were reflected on the doors and windows.
With his rickety body, anyone could tell that he was an old man.
Gradually, white mist rose in the courtyard, making it hazy.
"Formation?" Zhang Chenyu is a real expert. He took a step forward, and the power of his soul penetrated the fog, and he found the key to the formation in an instant.
This formation was obviously hastily arranged. Otherwise, it would take some time for Zhang Chenyu to break through the exquisite formations that Hang Tianyi had encountered.
Zhang Chenyu lightly tapped his finger in the air, a roaring sound sounded, and the force spread out like a tide. In an instant, all the fog around him was gone!
