Chapter 786 The uncle and nephew are playing hide and seek!
Jiang Fenghua came out of the prison. She glanced at the people waiting outside. This was the time when people were most tired. She yawned unconsciously and said in a deep voice, "It's late. Let's go back to sleep!"
She walked up to Ye Ying again and said, "You must have suffered a lot outside these days. You should go back to the camp and rest! Go back and recuperate first. I have something very important for you to do tomorrow."
Ye Ying said, "Yes." He had to find a way to enter the Heavenly Prison.
As soon as Ye Ying left, Jiang Fenghua said to Shangguan Li, "Go and inform Commander Shang to send more people to guard the palace strictly from now on."
Shangguan Li said: "Yes, I obey your order."
Jiang Fenghua then turned to Yao Guangzong and said, "Sir Yao, I'm sorry for making you tired tonight. You should go back and rest early!"
Yao Guangzong said respectfully: "I will take my leave now."
He saw with his own eyes Empress Jiang accusing the Grand Empress Dowager. At that time, he thought that the Ministry of Clan Affairs was really going to arrest the Grand Empress Dowager and bring her to the Ministry of Clan Affairs for interrogation, or even put her in prison.
Yao Guangzong secretly wondered what it would be like if the Empress Dowager really lived in the Heavenly Prison, and he shuddered unconsciously.
Now the people imprisoned in the Sky Prison are Concubine Chang and Minister Shu, and even the concubines in the harem have been imprisoned as well.
Yao Guangzong keenly realized that something big might be about to happen in the palace.
Jiang Fenghua didn't know what Yao Guangzong was thinking. She only saw a sneer on the corner of her lips. It would depend on how Xie Shang would lead Xie Kang out next!
Xie Kang and Concubine Chang were both very cruel. It was obvious that they were the ones who wanted to rebel, but in the end they pushed the Fourth Prince to take the lead.
Shu Xue's death was an accident. She accidentally ran into Shu Lang and Xie Yang plotting, so Xie Yang killed Shu Xue. Even if Xie Yang's rebellion succeeded, Xie Kang would come out to take advantage of the situation. If Xie Yang failed, then the Fourth Prince's rebellion would have failed.
Concubine Chang harmed her own son in this way, and yet she pretended to be a good mother who loved her child in front of her.
Aoxue suddenly fell behind by a large step. Jiang Fenghua noticed something was wrong and stopped and called her, "Aoxue."
Aoxue clenched her fingers and looked in the direction where Yeying left. Jiang Fenghua walked towards her and held her hand, "Let's go back to Kunning Palace first!"
"My lady, he..."
Jiang Fenghua made a gesture to her to keep quiet. Even Yao Guangzong had entered the palace, and she didn't believe that Xie Shang would be unprepared.
Aoxue said nothing and followed Jiang Fenghua back to Kunning Palace.
As soon as they entered the bedroom, Lin Yu rushed in, "Fenghua, are you okay?"
Hongxiu went to light the oil lamp. Aoxue stood aside nervously. Jiang Fenghua poured three glasses of water and asked Hongxiu and Aoxue to drink. He then said, "Lin Yu, do you want some water?"
Lin Yu didn't hesitate to take the water in front of Jiang Fenghua and drank it in one gulp. "I was nervous all night, and I'm thirsty."
Jiang Fenghua smiled slightly, took another cup and poured himself a glass, "I am thirsty too."
Seeing her so relaxed and at ease, not nervous at all, Aoxue said, "Madam, Yeying is fake. He is not the real Yeying."
"Haven't you already reminded me?" Jiang Fenghua said lightly.
Aoxue did remind the Queen, "Since the fake Ye Ying has appeared, where is the real Ye Ying? Has he already..."
Aoxue's eyes were slightly red. She had just wanted to follow the fake Yeying but was stopped by the Queen. He must have intended to do something by pretending to be Yeying and entering the palace.
"Something must have happened to Ye Ying. At least we already know that he disappeared after the night of the Lantern Festival. The person who was with us later was this impostor. He mentioned an underground palace. The real Ye Ying must still be imprisoned there. We don't know whether Ye Ying is dead or alive. One thing is certain, there must be a traitor in the Royal Guards, and that's why Ye Ying fell into someone else's trap."
Hongxiu glanced at Aoxue and said, "On the night of the fire, we thought Yeying was the traitor. We didn't expect King Kang to be so insidious. He deliberately made us think that Yeying was the traitor so as to exonerate the real traitor. Aoxue, don't be sad. We will definitely find Yeying."
"We don't know where the underground palace is in Shengjing City!" Aoxue didn't have time to be sad now. She had a bad feeling that something had happened to Yeying.
Lin Yu also said: "This matter really stumped me."
Jiang Fenghua said, "Xie Kang disappeared since the family banquet. He might be hiding in the underground palace. Now Xie Shang is also waiting for him to show up."
Lin Yu said, "Since it was the Fourth Prince who wanted to rebel, and the Emperor had not found out that the An Kang Prince was going to rebel, and there was no evidence to prove that he was rebelling, why was he hiding? If he wanted to seize the throne, then come and seize it. He made so many troubles. Is the Kang Prince also sick? He is the same as the Grand Empress Dowager. If he is not satisfied, then come and seize it. It is their ability to seize it. The Emperor also suddenly left the capital. Is he playing the empty city trick? His children and wife are in the palace! He is really careless."
Lin Yu became angrier as he spoke.
Jiang Fenghua guessed that Xie Shang had not left the capital, and he might be hiding somewhere. She said, "They are playing hide-and-seek with each other!"
Jiang Fenghua knew that Xie Shang would not really go to the Hengyang Imperial Mausoleum to mourn his father. If he ran away, what would happen to the palace? She said, "A large number of assassins have appeared in the palace, and Shang Hong is already investigating."
Lin Yu frowned, and thought of something else, "Madame Xi might be a spy from Kunning Palace. She went back to Cining Palace alone tonight."
Aoxue said: "The killer may be hiding in the Cining Palace. No one has searched the Queen Mother's palace, and no one dares to search it."
Hong Xiu said, "There may be assassins hiding in Kangshou Palace. The Empress Dowager lives there, and Prince Kang often goes there, which makes it easier for them to communicate."
Jiang Fenghua stared at them. "What you said makes sense. Why do the assassins have to hide in one place so that they can be caught in one fell swoop?"
Several people were all frowning. Lin Yu asked, "What is Aunt Xi doing secretly?"
Hong Xiu said, "I feel that Nanny Xi is resentful. She did a lot of things for the queen mother in the past. She wanted to rely on the queen mother. She must feel uncomfortable when she sees that Nanny Wang is powerful in the palace. She has nothing to do in Kunning Palace. If she feels resentful, will she betray the queen?"
Jiang Fenghua asked, "Is she one of ours?"
Hong Xiu shook her head, "No! The Queen never promised her anything, it has always been Nanny Wang who has been in single contact with her."
Jiang Fenghua thought to herself: The only people who know that she has lost her memory are the people in her room, and Nanny Wang is also an insider. Nanny Xi doesn't know that among the concubines in the harem, Gao Qingtong and Song Jing are closer to her.
Among these people, she remembered Gao Qingtong said to be wary of Song Jing, because the concubines of the prince would have desires.
But helping King Kang to harm Xie Shang will not benefit Song Jing. No matter how stupid Song Jing is, he would never do such a thing!
Nanny Wang couldn't possibly tell Nanny Xi.
Jiang Fenghua had her own ideas in mind, but she could never believe that it was her.
"Fenghua, have you figured out who it is?"
Jiang Fenghua was not sure, because she did not believe it was her. She said, "From now on, don't trust anyone except yourselves. Go and have a rest and get enough rest."
She did not stay in the main hall to sleep, but went to the side hall to find a few children.
As for the other concubines in the harem, she did not notify them one by one to avoid causing panic. She had no idea who was a human and who was a ghost.
