C47

I want to send someone to investigate, but the servant girl that I installed next to Yang Guang cannot come close. The study room is guarded by Yang Guang's personal guards that are ten meters away, and inside the study room, there are only Yang Guang and Yang Su. If they want to eavesdrop, it will not be easy, unless they have extremely powerful Qing Gong …

Thinking of Qing Gong, I remembered Ah He. Back then, he could even carry me and jump off such a steep cliff. In comparison, it might not be difficult for him to get close to Yang Guang's study.

So I told the dog to get Ah He here. I faced Ah He in time, but I didn't know how to express my thoughts. I couldn't possibly say that I suspected my husband, Yang Guang, and wanted to eavesdrop on him, right?

"If there is anything the Empress needs, please instruct this humble subject!"

He saved my life and was loyal and reliable, so I should have trusted him. After hesitating for a moment, I finally made up my mind and said:

"Ah Zhi, you have always been loyal. I will not hide it from you. With your skills, can you bring me safely to the study room?" Although I trust him, I'm also afraid that Yang Guang might have some secret that he's listening to. Firstly, the royal family is not a small matter, while secondly, if there's any unforeseen event, I don't want to implicate him.

He raised his head and looked at me in surprise. Then, he seemed to realize something. There was a trace of happiness on his face. After hesitating for a while, he said,

"Before His Majesty the Duke of Han left, he repeatedly instructed this humble subject to do everything in his power to help the Empress. This humble subject will do everything in my power to help the Empress, but the Crown Prince is not an easy-going person. Why should the Empress be in any danger?" This humble subject alone is enough. "

Since I had made up my mind, it would be useless for him to say anything more. I looked into his eyes and asked:

"You only said that you wouldn't?"

Being stared at by me, Ah He felt a little apprehensive. He could only reluctantly nod his head and say:

"Alright, this humble subject agrees to the Empress's request."

I knew that he would do what he had said, and that he would be loyal to me because of what Yang had asked me to do, so I thought of him as a confidant.

Yang Guang's study was built to the south, with a small pond at the back, and the other three sides were guarded by guards, although there weren't many of them, they were all elites, I could not take the risk, the only thing I could get close to was the north side that Yang Guang had neglected.

The north side faced the water, which was impossible for ordinary people to pass. Yang Guang opened a window in the north side, which was bright and cool, but was also convenient for enjoying the scenery.

He was also dressed in black and carried me on his back. There was a big tree behind the study, near the pond, and with a shake of his arm, he tied a long rope to the tree. Then he took a deep breath and said in a low voice:

"Empress, be careful!"

I tightly hugged his back, closed my eyes, and performed my qinggong. My body flew into the air, and in an instant, I landed on the ground. When I opened my eyes, I was already pressed up against the back wall of the study.

There was only a foot or so between the pool and the wall. I moved slowly toward the window, sticking close to the wall. He untied the rope and threw it at the tree trunk on the other side, ready to leave at any moment.

The window wasn't big, so I leaned against it and listened intently, but I couldn't hear clearly, so I stuck out my finger and dipped it in water. I tapped on the paper and a small hole appeared in the paper, and when I opened my eyes, I saw Yang Guang sitting with his back to me, and Yang Su sitting opposite him. Both of them were frowning, discussing something.

I couldn't see Yang Guang's expression, I could only see a little cunning look occasionally in Yang Su's eyes. In my heart, I was even more certain that they must be plotting something.

I pressed my ear to the small hole, and the sounds of conversation in the study drifted into my ear.

Yang Su said, "Previously, when Yuan Fei was poisoned to death, I thought that it was highly likely that we would blame it on Yang Yong. I never expected that a lowly slave would pay the debt for it. From this, it can be seen that Yang Yong is not necessarily as weak as he appears on the surface."

Yang Guang said, "I never expected that he would have such a close female friend who would willingly die in his place. Fortunately, the Prime Minister has great skills and does things without leaving any traces behind, so Imperial Father and Mother were able to firmly believe that Yang Yong was worthy enough to be his wife and thus demoted his position as Crown Prince."

He couldn't help but be shocked in his heart. So it turned out that the death of the Yuan Family was really planned by Yang Guang! At that time, I had suspected him as well, but since there was no evidence, I did not want to believe it to be the truth. Thus, I used all sorts of excuses to prove that this matter had nothing to do with Yang Guang, so I could be at ease.

The myriad of complicated feelings in my heart were like a thick fog that covered my eyes and heart. Actually, I should have known long ago that the Yuan clan had died in an odd way, and that the woman who poisoned the Yuan clan did not seem to be a murderer. As for Yang Yong, even if he only considered his position, he would not casually move the Yuan clan.

My hands trembled slightly as I gripped my sleeves and continued to listen carefully.

Yang Su slightly sighed, "This subject still feels that Your Highness's suggestion just now was too risky." I don't know what they planned before I came, but my heart was trembling a little. Yang Yong is already a bastard, and Yang Guang has successfully become the Crown Prince, what more could he be scheming?

Yang Guang said, "When did Prime Minister become so cowardly? The Yang Yong today is just a concubine. "

What? Could it be that he was still unwilling to let Yang Yong go? I frowned. My heart became colder and colder. I only felt that the person sleeping by my pillow was so sinister that it was terrifying.

Yang Su continued: "Don't you remember, Crown Prince? The last time the Crown Prince had used such a trick, although he had succeeded, it had been extremely dangerous. Even the Crown Princess had been born prematurely and had almost lost her life. Your subject believes that as long as you continue to work diligently, Yang Yong will not be able to threaten your position. In a hundred years' time, the emperor will have the final say in this world. "The safest option is to stay put."

After all, Xiao Fei is a girl, so it would be difficult for her to not give birth to her child prematurely. However, there are still benefits to it, if not for Zhao'er's birth, I don't know when I would have been able to ascend to the position of Crown Prince … "Fortunately, they were safe and sound, so I didn't feel too bad about being alone with Xiao Fei …"

In that instant, my heart was as though an arrow had pierced through my heart. I only felt a chill, but no pain. The assassin from that day was sent by Yang Guang. To think that he had performed so impeccably that day.

All the truths are now revealed. I can't tell whether it's grief or self-mockery in my heart. Zhao'er and I have become his pawns, and he can even use us as wives and sons!

I clenched my fists and suppressed my anger. When my nails dug into the flesh of my heart, my skin felt like it was being pierced. Yang Guang's words were like a scalding hot iron as they forcefully imprinted themselves into my heart.

"His Highness the Crown Princess is favored by the Queen after all. The Crown Prince should love her more. As for the woman outside … the Crown Prince should be more cautious." Yang Suyan said.

"Of course I know that. Xiao Fei is a very sensible person. She has done some good in establishing a store. In the future, she'll be the empress of the Gu family, and she'll treat her well." There was an indescribable trace of pride in Yang Guang's words, but his words were filled with certainty.

Am I her queen? In the future, when the Divine Empress passed away, I would no longer have any means to protect her. However, his tone of affirmation made one have no choice but to believe him. There was a trace of pity in his heart. In the end, he still considered that I was only a concubine, so there was at least some trace of love.

Thinking to this point, I raise my wrist and wipe away the tear-filled look in my eyes. It was a mist of anger, hatred and regret.

While flicking my sleeves, the jade bracelet in my hand accidentally touched the window sill, making a low "ding" sound. The night became even quieter, although the sound was extremely weak, it still caused my face to turn pale, my body slightly trembled, I forgot that I was on the small platform that was only about one foot long, and my body swayed, almost falling into the pond. I subconsciously reached out and grabbed the wooden pole on the window sill.

"This is bad!" There's someone here! "

He was so frightened that he threw the windowsill and moved two steps closer to the wall. When he saw what I had just done, he flew over and, ignoring etiquette, grabbed me by the waist with his long rope and pulled me away from Yang Guang's study room. In a blink of an eye, Ah He and I had flown to the other side of the pond and hid behind a tree.

Just as I hid, I saw that the window of the study was opened by Yang Su. He looked outside and when I saw the fierceness in his eyes, I was terrified, because in that case, Yang Guang would definitely send someone to search the house, it would be very dangerous. What I was worried about the most was me and Ah Zhi, who were hiding behind a tree and not daring to move.

Just as I was worrying about this, I suddenly saw a slowly moving shadow on the wall of the study room. It seemed to be a wild cat looking for food, so I gently pointed at it, and with a sudden understanding, Ah Zhi picked up a piece of stone and threw it towards the wild cat. The wild cat was startled and fled quickly with a" meow ".

"So it's a cat." Yang Su was slightly relieved as she closed the window.

A He and I let out a long sigh of relief. Borrowing the darkness of the night, we quietly returned to the Yuanxin Pavilion.

When Yang Guang came to bed after discussing the matter, I had already finished my clothes, and was lying on the couch in my underclothes. Yang Guang pushed me, and extended his hand towards me.

Soon, his snores could be heard from behind him, but my eyes were wide open in the endless night. A few traces of desolate brilliance could be seen in my eyes as sparkling tears flowed down from the corners of my eyes.

Having not slept for the entire night, there was only one question at stake in my mind, causing my head to hurt so much that it felt like it was about to burst. That is, Yang Guang, exactly how much love does he have for me?

There are four seasons of blooming flowers in the house, and time is slowly flowing down my fingertips. My Zhao`er has already begun learning how to speak, and these few days she has been hobbling to learn how to walk.

I did not let the maidservants to protect him, and I kept a few steps away from him myself. I told him to come over and fall, to get up on his own, and every time he fell in pain, Zhao'er would pout her pink little mouth and look at me with an aggrieved expression. I turned my head away from him, refusing to give him a chance to get up on his own, but instead turned my head away from him, refusing to look at him directly and not giving him a chance to act coquettishly and refuse to get up on his own.

He is the eldest grandson of the royal family, and may even become the king in the future. He has to bear all these setbacks by himself, even if others say that I'm too harsh on Zhao'er, how could I be willing to do so? Every time he fell, my heart ached. If he was a woman, I would never have treated him so harshly.
