Chapter 72 Court Service

In the Dongnuan Pavilion, there was silence for a moment, and time seemed to freeze.

The incense in the incense burner was exhausted, and the little waiter quickly replaced the incense with a new one, without making a sound from beginning to end.

"..." Fang Huairui felt like there was a sea of ​​swords and flames under his feet, he almost didn't jump up, his fists clenched so hard that his knuckles turned white.

No matter how slow he was, he understood what Chu Yi meant, his face was sinking like water.

Fang Huairui's tall and burly body tensed up again, like a long spear standing in the battlefield full of corpses.

He took a deep breath and asked clearly just now, "Your Highness means that the Yu family took in the prince of the previous dynasty?"

The sentence    was almost squeezed out from between the teeth, and the heart contracted into a ball.

Chu Yi smiled without saying a word, noncommittal.

Fang Huairui panicked even more, as if countless ants were crawling in his heart.

Originally, although the account book in Chu Yi's hand would cause some damage to the Fang family, he knew that with his status and that of the Fang family, as long as he was willing to invest in Chu Yi, this matter could be turned into a big or small matter. Turn into nothing.

But now, the nature of the Yu family is completely different.

If the Yu family really committed such a big death as Chu Yi said, even if the crime is not as good as marrying a daughter, this matter will not be good. Since the Yu family dares to take iron ore for the Yu family behind his back, maybe they will do it again. Because he used the name of the British government to do something abhorrent.

Thinking of this, Fang Huairui felt chills in the soles of his feet, and a bone-piercing chill rushed to his forehead.

His beard trembled slightly, and he couldn't help but ask again, "This matter is no trivial matter. Does Your Highness have proof?"

Chu Yi did not answer and asked: "Why does the Yu family insist on marrying the Dingyuan Houfu?"

Fang Huairui: "..."

In fact, Fang Huairui also asked Mrs. Yu this question. Mrs. Yu said that Gu Yunzheng from the Gu family was good, and she asked someone to do the math.

Fang Huairui couldn't say whether he believed or not, and he didn't care too much about these things.

Anyway, the son was born to the Yu family, so she wouldn't harm her son.

But thinking about it now, the whole thing is full of doubts, and there are too many puzzling places.

pounding!

Fang Huairui's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, like a drum, and cold sweat began to ooze out of his forehead.

Judging from Chu Yi's appearance, it doesn't seem like he is talking nonsense.

There was a gentle smile on the corner of Chu Yi's lips, and the Yin Hong and Tear Mole was dazzling like a gem in the sun, and he added: "The aunt who returned from the Yu family, her husband's surname is Bai, is a big family in Qingzhou, my husband. Frail, she married for seven years before she had a son. In February of the first year of the calendar, the Bai family was in a fire and the whole family died. Chang allows him to return with his son."

"Afterwards, the Yu family not only gave Qingzhou's thousand mu of land to the Bai family, but also gave Qingzhou Yanyin to the Bai family... Fang Huairui, why do you think this is?"

"..." Fang Huairui's cheek muscles trembled rapidly, and he was speechless again.

He doesn't like the pretentious family in the Yu family's bones. He has been far away from the Yu family for all these years, and he never thought that the Yu family would be so daring!

After a pause, Chu Yi smiled lightly: "Do you want me to continue?"

Before waiting for the other party to answer, Chu Yi continued to say to himself: "In the previous dynasty, Empress Yu had a white jade pendant with mutton fat, which was a family heirloom of the Yu family. "

"This jade was attached to a portrait of Empress Yu, but this jade pendant disappeared after Empress Yu's death."

"Has the British public ever seen it?"

Chu Yi looked directly at Fang Huairui, his eyes locked on him, his smile was warm, and he was clearly smiling, but it made one's heart feel cold.

Fang Huairui's eyes widened, and there was a flash of confusion at first. For some reason, he felt that the jade pendant described by Chu Yi was a little familiar. Chu Yi's remarks were more like meaning, and it seemed that it was specially told to him.

Where did he see this jade pendant of Empress Yu? !

Fang Huairui searched hard for his memory, his sword brows furrowed tightly.

That's right, a picture flashed in Fang Huairui's mind quickly.

On that day, there was a piece of jade pendant on Yu's skirt, which was made of suet white jade. At that time, Yu's family took a step to try to block the broken jade pendant. Obviously, there was a ghost in her heart.

Fang Huairui recalled the appearance of the broken jade pendant. The jade pendant was broken into five or six pieces, but the outline should be a round jade pendant, and the jade pendant was engraved with a phoenix...

The phoenix head has no eyes!

Fang Huairui's eyebrows jumped, and his breath became heavier.

He slowly raised his head to look at Chu Yi again, his neck stiffened, his eyes even more awe-inspiring, and his heart became more and more confused.

The question is, how did Chu Yi know that he had seen the jade pendant of Queen Yu? !

How did Chu Yi know about his British government? !

Chu Yi has been hostage in South Vietnam for many years. When did he set up eyeliner in the British government? ! Has he also placed eyeliners in other mansions in the capital? !

Fang Huairui felt like a light on his back, as if all his usual actions fell into Chu Yi's eyes.

The Yu family thought they could hide from the sky, but they didn't know whether it was the Yu family or the Fang family, in front of Chu Yi, there was no secret at all! !

At this moment, Fang Huairui really had the heart that slaughtered the whole family of the Yu family.

"Fang Huairui, you say, can I save the Fang family's sins?" Chu Yi threw Fang Huairui's question back to him, with a graceful and leisurely smile on his handsome face.

Those beautiful Ruifeng eyes were bottomless black, as vast as the night sky, as bright as stars, quietly shining with a cold light.

Finally, Fang Huairui lifted his robe and knelt down silently, kneeling on the cold hard brick ground, his head bowed extremely low.

This is a gesture of surrender.

In this short cup of tea, Fang Huairui seemed to have walked through dire straits and tasted all the flavors of life.

The surrounding is very quiet, so quiet that you can almost hear the sound of fallen leaves falling from the branches outside the window.

Fang Huairui waited with bated breath, his heart raised in his throat, and there was a sudden sound of light footsteps from behind, a thin middle-aged servant came to Fang Huairui and bowed to Chu Yi: "Your Highness, Your Majesty, please come up. towards."

Fang Huairui, who was kneeling on the ground, trembled, and couldn't help raising his eyes to look at Chu Yi, who was sitting behind the imperial case. The big red leather jacket he was wearing was shimmering under the brilliance of the rising sun.

The leather jacket is the royal uniform.

Obviously, Chu Yi had anticipated everything today, and was even sure when King Kang would give in.

Every step and every link of the whole thing is in his calculations, and his thoughtfulness has reached the level of admiration!

Everyone said that King Kang was virtuous and wise, capable of writing and martial arts. According to him, King Kang is probably far inferior to his nephew.

Chu Yi got up gracefully, ignored Fang Huairui who was kneeling on the ground, and went out from the Dongnuan Pavilion.

The middle-aged servant followed behind him, like a most faithful shadow.

The brilliance of the rising sun poured down, reflecting the dazzling rays of light on the glazed tiles above the palaces, resplendent and magnificent.

The entire palace was very empty and quiet, as if there was no one there.

Chu Yi walked unhurriedly, walking all the way from the Dongnuan Pavilion to the main entrance of the Golden Palace.

In the   Golden Throne Hall, the emperor sits on a high golden dragon chair, surrounded by civil and military ministers standing in two queues on both sides.

From the emperor to the ministers, they obviously noticed Chu Yi's arrival, and all eyes flocked to him like waves.
