"Your Majesty, if someone really discovers that this servant is mixing with the prince, I'm afraid that this slave's life will not be saved and he will be killed with a stick." Cuifang looked frightened, and her voice was trembling when she spoke.
It was obvious that he had said that other palace maids should be allowed to go up, but in the end it was her.
Concubine Li looked displeased: "What's going on? Didn't I tell you the truth? If it was an ordinary palace maid, he might just kill it with a stick, but if it were my personal palace maid, he couldn't do it at all. . After all, I am his concubine. No matter who the man is, he has never had sex with the maid next to his mother. If he was caught doing this, his reputation must be hindered. This is also a shame for Chen Xueying. ."
When Li Fei talked about these so-called truths, her eyes lit up, as if she had seen the scene of success, which made Chen Xueying jump.
"Because of this, I'm afraid that the slave has been killed by the prince before the captors come." Cuifang's eyes were red.
No matter how nice Li Fei's words were, Cuifang couldn't control the fear in her heart.
She is really afraid of death.
The only thing she regrets now is that she didn't listen to Ming Bao and informed the Zhong family directly when she learned about this, otherwise this thing would not have happened.
At that time, she was only focused on being the first person around her master, thinking of coercing and coercing any beautiful and timid little palace maid to be the one who took advantage of her.
Unexpectedly, when things came to a close, Concubine Li suddenly changed her mind. The young palace maid she was originally attracted to was despised. Cuifang felt it was extremely ironic to replace her with her, the most important palace maid around her.
She had been in the palace for several years, and following Concubine Li in the harem was considered a domineering role. The concubines would give way to their master and servant because of the power of the Zhong family.
But she knew that the princes in the front palace would not let them, especially His Highness the Crown Prince. She had seen the Crown Prince killing people indifferently. Wringing the neck of an erring palace servant was as easy as killing a chicken.
She didn't want to be the chicken that was killed.
"How could it be? Don't think too much. The prince is still a man no matter what. The aphrodisiac has been given. Even if a female wolf passes by, he can't control it. At this time, how can he still have the intention to kill? , I just want to spend the night with you! If you rub against him deliberately again, the glory and wealth will come by then. For such a good job, I will only think about you, and maybe your children will be in the future. Being able to enter the East Palace..."
Li Fei held her hand and looked like she was persuading her gently. She talked endlessly about the benefits in the future and couldn't stop at all. It seemed like she was thinking about everything.
But the more she talked, the more indifferent Cuifang's eyes became with her head lowered.
"Master, I know you are doing this for my own good, but I'm still a little scared." Cuifang's voice softened. Although she was still saying she was afraid, her attitude was no longer firm.
Li Fei's eyes flashed, knowing that she had been persuaded, and she was just about to make a final move.
So she put her arms around Cuifang's back and patted her shoulder, like an elder sister coaxing her younger sister.
"It's okay. After this hurdle, there will be a bright future -"
Before Li Fei finished speaking, she suddenly felt dizzy. The tip of her nose smelled a light fragrance. It smelled very good, but the more she smelled it, the less conscious she became.
Until his eyes fell into darkness, and his whole body fell limply, but he was caught by someone.
"Miss Cuifang is so courageous. I knew you would make the right choice." A strong-looking nanny emerged from the closet, smiling with a somewhat flattering look on her face.
Cuifang looked disgusted: "I don't know who your master is, and I don't want to know, but you have to send me out of the palace and escape from Jicheng as we agreed before, otherwise if I am in any danger, someone will take it. Expose these with incriminating evidence.”
She spoke threatening words in a cold tone, and the nanny raised her eyebrows. After all, she did not get angry, but smiled and said: "What is Miss Cuifang saying? We are all making a living in the harem. The most important thing is Don’t force people to die, otherwise even the most loyal slaves, such as you, will rebel.”
"If it hadn't been for the unkindness of Empress Li Fei, you wouldn't have made this choice. Don't worry, this matter will be done, and you will be safe for the rest of your life." The old mama said, while holding Li Fei horizontally, and directly Put it on the bed.
Seeing how determined she was, Cuifang couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, and a layer of cold sweat broke out in her palms.
"His Royal Highness is probably on the way already, come and help!" the old mama greeted her.
Cuifang stepped forward, and the two of them quickly took off Concubine Li's luxurious dress and put on a palace attire of a palace maid. They also removed her full head of pearls and green silk hair and spread it on the bed, as if she were a princess. The beauty looks like she is sleeping soundly.
After everything was tidied up, the old grandma also replaced the candles on the table.
Cuifang turned back and took one last look at Concubine Li on the bed. She couldn't help but whisper: "Master, this glorious and wealthy slave cannot bear it, so I'd better let you do it in person."
Lu Zhao was led to the back hall. As soon as he entered, he smelled a strange aroma and Li De was lighting candles.
"Wait a minute," he whispered.
Li De immediately stopped and stood still, not daring to move. His Highness the Crown Prince's tone just now was not very good.
Lu Zhao took a few steps forward, picked up the candle on the table and smelled it carefully. He immediately smelled something wrong. The candle gave off a very strange fragrance.
Under the perverted training of the Northern Qi royal family all the year round, the men of the Lu family have very good night vision, and Lu Zhao was no exception. He glanced around and immediately noticed that there was someone else on the bed.
With a small sound of "Buzz--", he had already pulled out the dagger and was about to throw it away.
But before flying out, he took back his hand.
I'm afraid this is not an assassination, otherwise it would be impossible to wait until now, and it would be impossible to lie on the bed in a panic at this moment, waiting for him to find out.
Lu Zhao frowned and strode towards the bed, wanting to check out the situation. He quickly turned his head, thinking about what might happen next.
But as he approached the bed, the fragrance on the tip of his nose became even stronger. He even found himself getting hotter and hotter, his heart beating faster, and he couldn't help but sweat.
Logically speaking, everything he suffered since childhood was much more exciting than an assassination. He had never been so nervous before. Why was he so red-faced and hot-hearted at this moment? There was something obviously wrong.
He took a step back suddenly, no longer approaching the bed, and gestured to Li De.
Li De immediately came closer, lifted the quilt, touched it again, and was shocked.
"Your Highness, there is a woman lying on the bed. I can't see who she is."
"do you died?"
"Alive, still breathing, but probably fainted." Li De replied immediately.
Lu Zhao snorted coldly and threw the dagger directly on the bed. He took out the fire seal to make it easier for Li De to take the dagger.
"killed."
He had already smelled something wrong in the room, and his whole body was hot at the moment, and some parts were too active, obviously he had been drugged by aphrodisiacs.
None of the candles in the room were lit, and he didn't inhale too much drug, but it still had an effect. It was obvious that the glass of wine that was spilled on him in the hall was not normal wine, and some of it might have been drugged. thing.
Wanting him to make a mistake on New Year's Eve, the emperor held a banquet for the officials to celebrate the New Year, but His Highness the Crown Prince hid in the back hall to favor the maids. It was indeed inappropriate.
However, all conspiracies and tricks will not succeed in the presence of the dead.
The prince would never favor a dead person.
The faint light of Huozhezi lit up a corner, and Li De picked up the dagger and was about to stab the woman in the heart.
At the same time, his eyes swept towards the woman's face. When he saw clearly what she looked like, the door stopped in an instant.
"Your Highness, this, this is Concubine Li." Li De's voice was trembling.
She originally thought she was just an ordinary favored palace maid, but she didn't expect that the palace maid suddenly turned into Li Fei. In an instant, the quarrel escalated from a small quarrel to a serious crime of fornication.
The people behind it are vicious and despicable.
Lu Zhao's eyes turned cold, and he immediately said in a deep voice: "You immediately carry her on your back and evacuate through the rear window."
At times like this, he hated being at the mercy of others.
He has plenty of loyal guards, and he also has no shortage of secret guards who are highly skilled in martial arts.
But at such a banquet for the ministers, it was the most sensitive moment for Lu Wuji, an old pervert. Even if several princes were secretly cultivating their own power, they would not dare to challenge his authority at this special time.
Once the old pervert finds out, it will definitely end badly.
"Yes." Li De immediately put her on his back and prepared to leave.
However, a few noisy sounds suddenly came from outside the hall, and Li Deden's face turned pale.
"Your Highness, Your Highness has come to change clothes, right next door."
There are many people and there are many eyes. Once they go out, they will be discovered, not to mention that there is someone behind Li De.
Lu Zhao frowned, and for a moment countless thoughts came to his mind.
Coming at this time must not be a coincidence, but someone deliberately designed it.
So the person who wanted to frame him was Lao who took the initiative to "catch the adulterer", or was there someone else who involved Lao in order to stay out of the matter?
Numerous thoughts flashed through Lu Zhao's mind, and he finally decided on a plan. He stepped forward and lit the candle. Soon, a faint fragrance filled the room. As the time gate passed, the fragrance became stronger and stronger.
Not to mention the vigorous Lu Zhao, even the rootless Li De began to breathe heavily.
This candle has heavy ingredients inside, and when you inhale it, you will soon feel a surge of desire.
"It's easy to spot if you carry the whole person on your back, but it's easier to hide if you divide it into pieces. The smell of blood is covered up by the aroma, and as for the blood stains..."
Lu Zhao picked up the dagger, threw it in his hand a few times, and spoke in a cold tone.
His eyes swept across Li Fei's body, and she had obviously already thought about how to strike.
Li De trembled when he heard it, and even the surge of lust subsided a little.
The candles were lit with enthusiasm, but His Highness's words were as cold as winter, like ice and fire.
Lu Wuji, who had been drinking for a while, was leaning on the dragon chair, his eyes unconsciously scanning the ministers below.
He was drunk and was over half a hundred years old. Compared with the radical thoughts when he was young, he only wanted to expand the territory and expand his ambitions. Now he is more appreciative of his great achievements.
For example, at this moment, whether they were civil servants, military generals, or noble families, he could use them properly. Even his sons who grew up and showed their ambitions obeyed his will and built the powerful Northern Qi today.
Suddenly Qin Youan walked in from outside, leaned into his ear, and whispered: "Your Majesty, someone came to report that His Highness the Crown Prince was having sex with someone in the back hall."
Lu Wuji didn't even frown. He glanced at the prince's position and found that it was empty.
"I'm happy today. The prince drank too much and it's normal to have a whim. Just don't spread the news to Ganquan Palace, lest the princess becomes jealous and it doesn't look good."
He didn't have any requirements for his sons in terms of female sex. After all, the Lu family's perverted education would hardly raise good-looking hungry ghosts, as long as they had enough strength.
Lu Zhao had not been flirtatious with women before, and he wouldn't care if he made a fuss once in a while.
But he also knew that Chen Xueying was so powerful that she could even compete head-on with Li Fei. If he found out that Lu Zhao was cheating on her, he would probably overturn the table.
She is not having a good life, and no one here can be happy.
In order to prevent today's incident from turning into a farce, he deliberately covered up something for the prince, lest he really touched Ni Lin and turned Chen Xueying into a tigress in an instant.
Qin You'an coughed lightly. After hesitating for a moment, he said bravely: "The person who was having an affair with the prince was a concubine."
As soon as Lu Wuji heard this, he lost all interest.
His mentality also changed from having nothing to do with himself, and turned into a mixture of anger and anger.
The other courtiers seemed to be changing cups, but in fact their attention was focused on the Nine-Five Lord. Seeing him talking to Manager Qin, everyone gradually became quiet, for fear that someone would be unlucky.
"Please be patient, gentlemen, I am happy today. I drank a few drinks too much and went out to relieve the alcohol." Lu Wuji said in a soft tone, then stood up and left.
Obviously someone said that his son and his young wife were getting together, but in front of other people, he couldn't get angry and had to keep a smile on his face to avoid being discovered.
Being an emperor doesn't mean you can do whatever you want.
He walked to the side hall, where the informer was kneeling on the ground.
"Who sent you to inform?" Lu Wuji asked coldly.
The informer was a young eunuch. He kowtowed twice with his forehead flushed red. Apparently he had kowtowed several times to Manager Qin just now.
"When I returned to the emperor, no one sent me. The slave came by himself. The slave is serving in the East Palace. Whatever the master does is a gift. The slave should not feel resentful. However, the prince was cruel and killed dozens of eunuchs. All the slave's friends and brothers were If someone dies unexpectedly, the next one will be a slave. A slave has only one life, so he will die, but the slave is unwilling to accept it. He has always wanted to collect evidence of the Crown Prince's crime and hand it over to His Majesty."
There was no need for others to scare him, so the little eunuch just poured beans out of a bamboo tube.
"During the banquet, His Royal Highness accidentally got his clothes wet, so he went to the back hall of Chenyuan Palace next door to change clothes. The servant was waiting outside, and after a while he saw Concubine Li sneaking in. The servant felt something was wrong, so he immediately reported to Manager Qin Inform this."
After he finished speaking, he kowtowed again.
Lu Wuji's eyes became darker and darker. He didn't even look at the little eunuch and said to Qin You'an: "Buried. We found out that all his friends and brothers inside and outside the palace were buried together."
After he finished speaking, he turned and left.
The little eunuch who originally thought he had made a meritorious service fell to the ground on the spot when he heard this. He was so frightened that he wet his pants.
"Your Majesty, spare your life, Your Majesty, spare your life. Everything I said is true. Don't be deceived by the Crown Prince. Although I didn't find out that he was treasonous, as long as you give me some more time, I will definitely——" The little eunuch crawled forward with both hands. , wanted to seek leniency.
But Lu Wuji was already far away and didn't listen to what he said.
Qin You'an stayed, and without waiting for the little eunuch to finish speaking, he stepped on his wrist. With a muffled "click" sound, he stepped on the little eunuch's arm and broke it. The door in the palace instantly sounded like a pig being killed. howl.
"No matter who bribed you, I can only say that you are stupid and don't know it. The emperor hates informers and betrayers. You have both, let alone an affair. No matter which one, you can't survive. . And if you show off your family affection in front of the emperor, all you have to do is behead the whole family. The master behind you must have promised you a reward, but it will be useless. "
Qin Youan glanced at him coldly, with a somewhat mocking expression on his face.
Generally speaking, the master behind this kind of bribed palace servant promises to take care of his family. Although his life is not guaranteed, it is worthwhile for his family to be safe and enjoy happiness.
It's a pity that this matter has touched the emperor's objections, and it is inevitable that everyone in the family will be executed.
"Mr. Qin, please beg the emperor for mercy. I want to tell you who bought it. It's the prince——"
The little eunuch still couldn't finish his words. Qin Youan's foot stepped on him again, and this time it was his neck that was broken.
"A foolish person's confession is worthless."
Qin You'an twisted the soles of his shoes and ordered the guards to deal with the person before turning around and chasing Lu Wuji.
Lu Wuji came very quickly. Chen Yuan Palace was already next door, so he walked there without even using a sedan.
As soon as he entered the palace gate, he saw Lu Qingming sitting in a wheelchair and being pushed out.
"My son has met my father." He immediately lowered his head and saluted.
"Pingshen." Lu Wuji waved his hand and walked inside, obviously not wanting to pay attention to him.
But after walking a few steps, he stopped and said, "Have you seen the prince?"
"No, my eldest brother came out earlier than my son."
The prince is in a wheelchair, and it is more inconvenient for him to move than others. Every time he attends a banquet, he pays attention to wine and soup, but he still has to leave from time to time.
After all, it was convenient for others to relieve themselves, but he had to go to the back hall to relieve himself.
Lu Wuji narrowed his eyes, and he was obviously thinking about whether the prince was involved or not.
"The prince is gone and will never return."
"Brother drank too much and maybe fell asleep." Lu Qingming said tentatively.
"You come with me and take a look." Lu Wuji ignored his answer and gave the order directly.
Regardless of whether Lu Qingming wanted to or not, someone had to push the wheelchair behind him.
In fact, he had already sensed that something unusual and major had probably happened, and it was related to the prince, otherwise the emperor would not have come in person.
He was a little nervous. He didn't know whether the emperor asked him to follow him purely as a witness or if the matter was also related to him.
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness is in that door room." The palace man led the way and quickly pointed to one of the rooms with a brightly lit door.
"Slave Li De has met the emperor."
When several people approached, they saw Li De guarding the door. He naturally saw the emperor and immediately knelt down to salute.
"Where is the prince?"
"If you return to the emperor, His Highness will rest inside."
"Yeah?"
When Lu Wuji saw Li De, he was slightly startled. Logically speaking, if the prince was having an affair with Concubine Li inside, he would not dare to light the candle openly and let Li De stand guard outside the house.
If you put it like this in the open, it's not an affair, it's clearly a show off.
"I want to see him."
Although there is some illogical logic, since someone has tipped off the news, whether it is a frame-up or the prince's intention, something must have happened, and Lu Wuji cannot leave directly.
He strode inside, and Li De subconsciously rushed into the hall, wanting to report the news.
"Your Majesty, I will send you a message."
But as soon as he finished speaking, he was kicked hard and Men fell to his knees in an instant.
"The emperor wants to go in, do you dare to stop him?" Qin Youan said in a cold tone.
"I don't dare, I don't dare!" Li De immediately begged for mercy. He raised his head and opened his mouth to shout, but when he saw Qin You'an's deathly eyes, he shut his mouth instantly and did not dare to say anything.
"Creak-" There was a sound, and the door was pushed open violently.
A faint fragrance came, and Lu Wuji immediately shook his sleeves with his inner sleeves to blow away the fragrance.
Qin Youan came closer and smelled it, and he immediately recognized it.
"Your Majesty, this is for arousal."
He must have some ability to be able to become the general manager next to Lu Wuji, an old pervert.
Not only can he serve people and understand the emperor's thoughts, but he also knows a bit about martial arts, poison, and knowledge. He is actually considered an all-rounder.
When Lu Qingming heard this, his expression suddenly changed.
At this moment, the bed was covered by a green curtain, and the scene inside could not be seen clearly, but under the candlelight, two figures could be vaguely seen sticking together intimately.
It just means that the red candle tent is warm and a spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold.
Lu Qingming understood in an instant that his eldest brother was having fun with someone at the moment, and if his father could let go of all the officials and come to settle accounts alone, I am afraid that the identity of the woman on the bed is not trivial. In all likelihood, she is a concubine in the harem.
"Father." The mosquito net was lifted up, revealing half of the prince's body.
Lu Zhao was naturally undressed. His muscular chest, flushed cheeks, and blurred eyes all made it clear what he was going through.
It must be very painful to stop the pleasure in the middle, not to mention that the arousal is still burning here.
"Please wait for a moment, I will be here soon." He gestured to put down the green tent.
Lu Wuji frowned and stopped him directly: "Wait a minute, who else is in the tent? You know I'm here, don't you know how to say hello?"
There was silence in the tent. Lu Zhao looked embarrassed and said softly: "Father, what do you want to do with your son? It has nothing to do with her. After all, she is a woman and my younger brother is here. It's hard to say anything at this time. Save her some face." ."
"She has done such a thing, why do she need any dignity? Let her come out." Lu Wuji insisted.
At this moment, he wanted to rush forward, overturn the green tent, and expose this bad couple.
But the vigilance of being the emperor for many years made him feel that something was wrong.
The expression on Lu Zhao's face, although panicked, was not scary.
It didn't look like he was having an affair with Li Fei at all. Of course, it couldn't be ruled out that he was acting, pretending to be calm, and wanted to trick them into taking them away.
For this reason, Lu Wuji did not ask people to rashly raise the Qing tent, which was considered to have left him a way out.
"Who is so shameless? They have been chasing after her husband and wife's affairs!" An angry voice came from inside, which was completely different from Li Fei's.
Everyone was shocked. This was obviously Chen Xueying's voice, so they couldn't hear it wrong.
Lu Wuji was startled. He subconsciously looked at Qin Youan, how could this be different from what he had promised? :,,
