Chapter 370 Something happened in the palace!

  For the arrival of the Zhenyi Kingdom, the people in the main city looked curiously.

The people of the Zhenyi Kingdom were naturally tall and strong. Coupled with their exotic clothes, they soon became the focus of the main city.

The only surprising thing is that the regent of the Zhenyi Kingdom was extremely low-key and restrained, and stayed in the carriage the whole time. Unlike other alliance countries that visited Xiliang, they would open the windows to welcome the people to watch and welcome.

 When the carriage passed by the tea house, a faint smell wafted away.

Fan Qingyao knew as soon as he smelled it, it was the smell of nine-tailed nightshade flower.

Nine-tailed nightshade flower grows in the ice and snow fields. It is not rare, but it is a very common cold compress medicinal material.

 It’s just that the aroma of this medicinal material is pleasant and refreshing.

 There is only one nine-tailed nightshade flower within ten miles, and there is no other smell.

Watching the Zhenyi Kingdom’s team go away, Fan Qingyao narrowed his eyes slightly.

Zhenyi Kingdom is located in a basin, and the temperature is dry and hot all year round. How can medicinal materials such as Nine-tailed nightshade, which only grows in the ice and snow fields, be a common medicinal material for Zhenyi Kingdom.

But now, the smell of nine-tailed nightshade flowers is always wafting in the carriage of Zhenyi Kingdom.

 Obviously, the Zhenyi Kingdom wanted to hide something through the smell of the nine-tailed nightshade flower.

 It seems that the Zhenyi Kingdom's arrival in Xiliang this time is not as simple as a visit.

In front of the main entrance of the palace, Emperor Yongchang was already waiting to greet him, accompanied by the prince and many princes.

The princes of other alliance countries would not be treated like an emperor coming out to greet him, but the regent of Zhenyi Kingdom had this kind of pomp.

 Because the emperors and royal families of various countries knew very well that the regent was now able to control the life and death of the Zhenyi Kingdom.

 His status is naturally on par with the emperors of other countries.

According to the regulations of Xiliang, the accompanying soldiers are not allowed to enter the palace gate.

As the Zhenyi team arrived in front of the palace gate, the guard commander who had been waiting aside stopped the Zhenyi soldiers.

“The emperor has arranged a place for you to stay in the palace. Please come with me.”

The major general of the Zhenyi Kingdom who came with him this time stood still and did not move at all.

Until, a man's chuckle sounded in the carriage, "As the saying goes, guests do as they please. Now that we have arrived in Xiliang, I, Zhenyi, must respect Xiliang's rules."

The major general of the Zhenyi Kingdom then took the people behind him, looked at the guard commander, and motioned for him to lead the way.

Such an arrogant attitude, even the former Xianbei would not dare to do so.

However, as the military strength of the Zhenyi Kingdom far exceeded that of Xiliang, even Emperor Yongchang had to give in three points.

 Faced with the attitude of the Zhenyi Kingdom, Emperor Yongchang would inevitably be unable to step down.

The regent of Zhenyi Kingdom, who was sitting in the carriage, seemed to have no intention of explaining.

 For a time, the atmosphere in front of the palace gate was awkward and dangerous.

 Baili Fengming stepped forward at the right time and took the initiative to resolve the embarrassment and said, "I heard that the regent of Zhenyi Kingdom and the prince were busy traveling, so my father specially arranged a banquet to welcome the regent and prince of Zhenyi Kingdom."

I have to say that the aura of the regent of Zhenyi Kingdom is too strong.

 So much so that everyone present had forgotten the existence of the prince who had been silent all this time.

Now that Baili Fengming mentioned it emphatically, the surrounding courtiers secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It is true that the regent controls the power of the Zhenyi Kingdom, but he claims to the outside world that he is just a prince.

If Xiliang really paid attention to the regent and ignored the prince, wouldn't it be clear that the regent has hegemony?

 In the carriage, the regent's voice sounded again, "I wonder who this is..."

Bai Tu quickly responded, "Returning to the regent of Zhenyi Kingdom, this is our Crown Prince of Xiliang."

The regent smiled and seemed to be looking at Baili Fengming through the car curtain.

After a long while, he said again, "The Prince of Xiliang is right. I am really tired from traveling and traveling, so I skipped the banquet and failed to live up to the Emperor of Xiliang's good intentions. I will personally apologize to him later." "

For the high-ranking regent to be so kind and even able to apologize, it was enough to give Xiliang face.

Emperor Yongchang's mood improved accordingly. "The regent of Zhenyi Kingdom is in serious trouble. There will be plenty of time for drinking and chatting in the future. I really am not in a hurry for this moment."

As Emperor Yongchang finished speaking, Baili Rongze quickly signaled the palace people to **** the regent of Zhenyi Kingdom into the palace.

No matter how eager he is to express himself, Emperor Yongchang now only looks at the prince, "Come to the imperial study room to play a few games of chess with me in a while." Baili Fengming nodded slightly, "I obey."

  Baili Rongze, “…”

Seeing his father and the prince leaving together, there was nothing he could do.

The regent of Zhenyi Kingdom indeed lived in the palace.

It’s just that both the people serving around him and the people guarding outside the palace are all people from the Zhenyi Kingdom.

To put it bluntly, people from Xiliang can't even step into the palace.

Even when Emperor Yongchang came to visit, the regent of Zhenyi always excused himself by citing poor health.

Emperor Yongchang was very troubled by this.

  Not to mention the purpose of coming here, but also to occupy people thousands of miles away...

It’s so unpredictable and neither trivial nor serious, how can we not make people anxious.

Soon, even the people in the main city knew about it.

 Slowly, the regent of Zhenyi Kingdom, who had never shown his face, became the focus of everyone's discussion.

 At the same time, another piece of news came from the palace.

The emperor intended to take people to the palace before the New Year. During the winter hunting, he happened to take people to the palace to celebrate the New Year.

Of course, in addition to the important ministers, princes, princes and family members who went there this time, the regent and prince of Zhenyi Kingdom were also specially invited to go with them.

 The person who proposed this matter to the emperor was Yunying, who had recently been favored by Long En, and agreed.

 Empress Zhenxi had no objection to this.

 Just because Queen Zhenxi fell ill.

After Fan Qingyao learned that the Queen was ill, he held Texue on his lap.

It was precisely because she wanted to send a message to ask Baili Fengming, but as soon as she started writing, she saw Aunt Xu leading someone into the house.

Fan Qingyao was stunned, and his heartbeat accelerated a bit.

After a long while, she gave the order, "Mother Xu, send everyone in the yard outside. You will personally guard the door and no one will come near."

Xu Yan was busy saying it was that half of the delay did not dare to go out.

As the open door was closed, the person who entered also took off his cloak and hat.

When familiar facial features came into view, Fan Qingyao quickly knelt on the ground and said, "I would like to pay my regards to the Queen."

 Empress Zhen Xi quickly took Fan Qingyao's arm and said, "We will be a family soon. Why are we so unfamiliar?"

Fan Qingyao helped the Queen sit on the soft couch, and his fingers naturally pressed on the slightly cold wrist.

But before Fan Qingyao could finish checking her pulse, Queen Zhen Xi pulled her and sat beside her, "I know my body well, and saying that I am ill is just for others to see."

 Fan Qingyao, “…”

so…

Empress, are you just pretending to be sick?

It’s true that Queen Zhen Xi’s face looked bad. She held Fan Qingyao’s hand without going around and said, “Something happened in the palace.”

Being able to make even the Queen and the Empress change their expressions, Fan Qingyao also became more serious.

It turns out that just a few days before Yunying proposed to the emperor to go to the palace for winter hunting and celebrate the New Year, the palace attendants accidentally fished out a female corpse from an abandoned well near Fengyi Palace.

The female corpse’s whole body was covered in ulcers, and even her face was rotten.

The palace people were afraid of bad luck, so they quickly buried the body secretly.

Lily happened to be passing by. The bracelet on the palace maid's wrist looked familiar, so she secretly hid it and took it back.

"When Yunying was still serving me, I helped me fend off a wild cat, so I rewarded her with a bracelet. Over the years, everything I have rewarded, I have I remember." Queen Zhen Xi narrowed her eyes slightly, covering her dark eyes.

But if the real Yunying is dead, then who will be with the emperor now?
