Chapter 1438： Not for you to make tea

My aunt set up such a big trap, and the purpose is definitely not simple.

But why did she leave the palace so easily?

Huangfu Liyue was surrounded by mysteries one by one, and she couldn't figure it out.

At this time, the female officer in the palace ran in from outside.

"The princess, your majesty and Queen Suying were attacked by a killer on the way back to the palace!"

Huangfu Liyue stood up suddenly.

"How about father and mother?"

"The princess can rest assured, the guards are in time. Your Majesty has only suffered some skin trauma. Queen Suying is not serious and has returned to the palace safely."

Even so, Huangfu Liyue could not sit still.

In the next second, she went directly out of the Chang'an Temple.

…

The king's bedroom.

In the hall, Feng Suying held the medicine in his hand and painted it on the back of the king's hand.

There was an abrasion mark on the back of the king's hand, which was left by the attack outside the palace not long ago.

After Feng Suying applied the medicine to him, she looked at him very worried.

"I don't know who is so bold to send someone to assassinate you."

The king carefully recalled the scene of the attack outside the palace.

After he watched the concert with Feng Suying, Feng Suying suggested to go to the lake to relax with him.

He ordered the guards to follow far away, and he and Feng Suying were watching the scene by the lake.

Unexpectedly, a masked man came quietly, and without a word, he wanted his life with a knife.

Fortunately, the guards arrived in time, and he just suffered some skin injuries.

The assassin man jumped into the lake and escaped.

Thinking of this, the king felt strange.

No one knows his whereabouts today except for a few close people in the palace.

And the killer at the time was obviously directed at him.

At this time, who would want to put him to death?

The king's face was serious, and his heart was very puzzled.

At this moment, Hans walked in from outside.

"Your Majesty, we have caught the assassin, but he committed suicide by taking poison first, but I found this on him."

Hans offered a badge in his hand.

The king looked at his breastplate carefully, his pupils shrank suddenly.

All ministers or princes in the palace who hold military power will have special breastplates for those under their hands.

And this one in Hans's hand is the breastplate of Huangfu Yuncheng's guards!

The king stared at the breastplate for a long time, but never spoke.

Feng Suying took the breastplate in his hand.

After reading it carefully, she was shocked.

"Mashiro, this is..."

The king nodded deeply.

"You read that right, this is the name badge of Yuncheng's guards."

Feng Suying was shocked: "How could he..."

The king said nothing, his eyes gloomy and unclear.

Hans reminded him: "Your Majesty, today is the death day of the former queen."

The news that Juroz had passed away, the king did not know until now.

"She's dead?"

"Yes, not long ago, the corpse was picked up by the prince."

After Hans finished speaking, Feng Suying guessed: "Zhenghong, is Yuncheng because of his mother's death..."

Having said that, she stopped again.

But the meaning in this sentence couldn't be more clear.

In today's form, Huangfu Yuncheng sent someone to assassinate them because of his mother's death.

The king did not answer the question. He looked up at Hans and asked, "Where is Yuncheng?"

"A few hours ago, the eldest prince ordered people to take the body of the former queen out of the palace. I heard from the palace people that the prince found a secluded place outside the palace to bury the former queen."

The king frowned.

Yuncheng is also outside the palace.

All this has to make him think more.

Hans asked, "Your Majesty, should I go and call the prince back to the palace immediately?"

After the king thought, he raised his hand.

"No need, today is the death day of his mother's queen, this matter, wait for today to talk about it!"

Feng Suying sat next to the king, her eyes faintly worried.

"Mashiro, Yuncheng, this kid, doesn't have any grudges against us because of his mother, right?"

"Will not."

The king's tone was very firm: "Yuncheng is a person who knows right and wrong and takes care of the overall situation. I don't believe he would be so confused and ruin his future."

Feng Suying pressed her lips slightly, feeling indifferent.

…

When Huangfu Liyue came to the father's bedroom, the father was sitting in the hall alone.

"Father, I heard that you were injured, are you okay?"

Seeing her coming, the king smiled lovingly.

"Skin trauma, don't get in the way."

She immediately asked: "Did you find out, who did it?"

The king sighed silently.

"The evidence points directly to Yuncheng."

Huangfu Liyue had doubts in her eyes: "Brother Wang?"

When the king saw her in such amazement, he nodded and said, "Today is the death day of his mother's queen. He is just outside the palace, and the murderer also carries the name badge of his guard."

Although the evidence pointed to Huangfu Yuncheng, Huangfu Liyue found it strange.

"Father, although I don't know much about Brother Wang, I always feel that he shouldn't be such a confused person."

"I watched Yuncheng grow up. Even if he is not a soft-hearted person, he will never be a rebellious and unfilial person."

"So Father, do you think this matter is strange?"

The king glanced at Feng Suying's room upstairs, then closed his eyes, and nodded at Huangfu Liyue calmly.

Huangfu Liyue realized the weird look in his father's eyes and whispered: "Father, if you have anything else to say, just say it."

The king suddenly put aside the subject.

"Today, your mother promised me to abdicate."

Huangfu Liyue's eyes moved slightly, fixedly looking at his father.

The father and daughter looked at each other silently, and neither spoke.

The air stayed still for dozens of seconds.

In the end, Huangfu Liyue's words broke the tranquility of the hall.

"Father, since the evidence all points to Brother Wang, and it is reasonable and reasonable, you should thoroughly investigate and punish Brother Wang. As for your abdication, you can'discuss' with your mother."

The king looked calm and gave a light "um".

…

at night.

Country Z, Jiangcheng.

Due to work needs, Mu Jingchen has stayed in the Quanjia Bieyuan for a few days.

At this time, he is dealing with official duties in the study.

The night is dark, and sleepiness will inevitably come.

He stared at the computer screen in front of him, and his slender white fingers touched the coffee cup on the table.

Then, it was delivered to the lips skillfully.

However, this cup of coffee has already bottomed out.

When he realized, he wrinkled his brows lightly, and immediately ordered at the door: "Come in with a cup of coffee."

He has the habit of working late at night, so the servants of Bieyuan will stay at the entrance of the study 24 hours a day, waiting for instructions.

A few minutes later.

The door of the study was pushed open.

A woman in a long white tunic came in.

This woman has a light body and a gentle pace, holding a cup of tea in her hand, and cautiously placing it by Mu Jingchen's hand.

Mu Jingchen kept his eyes on the computer, not paying attention to who came.

Until he casually picked up the tea cup at hand and brought it to his lips, his face sank.

"I asked you to pour a cup of coffee, not to make tea!"

He put down his teacup and raised his eyes indifferently.
