Chapter 407, Hen Sichen
The crown prince was imprisoned, the empress dowager was grounded, and Chengguo's mansion was surrounded by imperial guards. This series of events happened so suddenly and horribly that the entire capital was in a state of panic, and no one dared to move .
Chu Xuan clearly knew that at this time, all the houses were closed, and it was too difficult to find out the exact news. Therefore, he could only hope to learn some inside information from Shi Fuxin, and of course he was unwilling to leave in despair.
But, who is Shi Fuxin, not to mention that Chu Xuan and his wife were involved in the matter of her being arrested in the clan's mansion, but they didn't participate, because of the bad relationship between him and Chu Yao, he belongs to the prince, and she, the eldest prince His master will not treat him well either.
"Third siblings, the prince's affairs are related to the safety of the capital."
"You take the prince too seriously. No matter who is missing in this world, it will still run."
"Third siblings, I am the eldest son of the palace, I need to know what Chu Yao is doing outside, if he gets into any trouble, it will affect the whole palace."
"You have to tell me now, what did Chu Yao do? And where did you go two days ago, and how did you come back today? If you don't tell me, I'll ask my grandparents to come over and ask you."
Seeing that Chu Xuan brought out the old prince and concubine to suppress her, Shi Fuxin was irritated and immediately sank her face, and she didn't bother to save Chu Xuan's face: "Chu Xuan, are you not weaned yet? Find a parent."
"Also, let me put away your troubles in this nest. Your method may be useful to Chu Yao. After all, grandparents, fathers and mothers are his elders and relatives. He will have scruples, but these can be useful to me. nothing."
Speaking, Shi Fuxin looked at Chu Xuan sarcastically: "The prince is your master, if you want to save someone, no one will stop you, but please find a way by yourself."
snorted, "Come to me to show off your prestige, and even want to use your grandparents to suppress me, you are really promising."
Chu Xuan looked at Shi Fuxin's unabashed sarcasm, feeling ashamed and annoyed: "Shi Shi, don't go too far."
Shi Fuxin sneered: "Aren't you a member of the prince's party? If something happened to the prince, you should consult with your accomplices instead of yelling at me incompetently."
"Why, don't tell me you don't deserve the prince's reuse. Now that the prince has an accident, you don't even know who to consult with?"
Chu Xuan was angry and furious, knowing that Shi Fuxin couldn't ask anything here, so she could only shake her sleeves and leave angrily.
Seeing Chu Xuan leave Nanny Leng, she was a little worried, so she sent a little maid to follow, and soon the little maid came back, saying that Chu Xuan had left the house.
Nurse Leng looked at Shi Fuxin hesitantly, "Ma'am, why do you want to provoke the uncle with words and let him go out of the house at this time?"
Shi Fuxin raised her eyes and looked at Nanny Leng: "I didn't provoke him, his legs are growing on his body, and if he wants to leave the house, no one can stop him."
Nurse Leng said worriedly: "Ma'am, after the uncle found you, he left the mansion directly. I'm worried that something will happen to him outside, and the old prince and concubine may blame you."
Shi Fuxin snorted coldly: "In the clan's mansion, if I hadn't won the game, not only would I not be able to come back, but Chu Yao would have to go in too. I didn't directly attack the couple, it's already a shame."
Hearing this, Nanny Leng stopped talking.
Shi Fuxin picked up the prawns, peeled them by herself, and said while peeling: "The old prince and the old princess can say nothing in the palace because the people in the palace depend on them to live, but I don't need them. For me, it doesn't matter."
I thought that I could have a quiet New Year's dinner next time, but I didn't expect Xiaofang to rush in.
"Ma'am, a servant came to Shi Yi with the cigarette bag that he carried with him, and said that something happened to the cigarette bag."
Shi Fuxin's complexion changed: "Where is that boy?"
Xiaofang: "Over the stable, I was watched by Shi Yishi Ershi."
Shi Fuxin looked at Nurse Leng: "Go over and bring that boy over, remember, keep away from people."
Nurse Leng nodded and left quickly.
Two quarters of an hour later, Mother Leng came back with a servant.
"Ma'am, help!"
As soon as he saw Shi Fuxin, the servant knelt down and called for help.
The little servant said in a panic: "Not long ago, a group of uninvited guests suddenly came to our mansion. As soon as they arrived, they took the old man and the master away, and controlled other people in the mansion. He ran out of the dog hole while taking advantage of the chaos."
After hearing this, Shi Fuxin's expression darkened: "Who are those people?"
The boy shook his head: "They are not from the government. They all wear black robes, but they don't look like killers either."
After listening to the boy's description, Shi Fuxin's brows became pimples.
Thinking of the prince's confinement and the empress dowager's confinement today, I quickly guessed that the arrest of Eunuch Fu and the cigarette bag was probably related to the empress dowager's stealing.
In the Hall of Reincarnation, nine out of ten people from the Hall of Reincarnation took Fu Gonggong and the cigarette bag away.
It is absolutely embarrassing for the royal family that the queen mother steals someone. This kind of thing must not be known to outsiders. Once outsiders know about it, they will definitely kill them.
Eunuch Fu has been up and down in the palace for decades, so he should be very clear about the royal methods.
Shi Fuxin still remembers how careful Fu Gonggong was when he told her about the empress dowager's stealing. With the caution of a cigarette bag, they should not disclose this matter to anyone other than her.
In this case, the people in the Hall of Reincarnation should not focus on Fu Gonggong and the cigarette bag.
But now, they were caught.
Shi Fuxin's eyes flickered.
She told Chu Yao about the empress dowager's stealing. She can only know about this kind of thing from others, and beside her, only Eunuch Fu and Nanny Leng came out of the palace.
With Chu Yao's means, it is easy to find out that she got the news from Fu Gonggong.
So, is it Chu Yao who asked the people in the Hall of Reincarnation to grab the cigarette bag and Fu Gonggong?
Shi Fuxin didn't know why Chu Yao did this, she looked at the boy and said, "I know about this matter, I will deal with it, you go back now, comfort the people in your house, and let them not move around."
Little servant: "Madam, we are alright, you must rescue the old man and the master."
Nurse Leng stepped forward and pulled the boy up: "Okay, madam, you can make up your own mind."
Seeing Nanny Leng leaving with the servant, Shi Fuxin looked a little unhappy, and looked at An Ran: "Send someone to the porter to watch, if the third master returns home, come and tell me right away."
Worried that Eunuch Fu and the cigarette bag would be in danger, she hesitated for a while, but Shi Fuxin decided to go to Chu Yao immediately.
"I want to sleep for a while, don't let anyone disturb me."
After giving instructions to An Ran and the others, Shi Fuxin closed the door, walked into the inner room, changed into ordinary clothes, avoided everyone, and quietly left the palace.
"How did you come?"
As soon as Chu Yao from the Supervision Department came out of his cell, he saw Shi Fuxin standing in his office room.
Shi Fuxin didn't bother, and asked straight to the point: "Why did you arrest Eunuch and the cigarette bag?"
Chu Yao didn't answer, but asked first: "You left the house, no one knows?"
When Shi Fuxin saw his serious face, she shook her head: "I came out secretly."
Chu Yao breathed a sigh of relief: "Your Majesty needs to know who revealed the story of the empress dowager's stealing. I can't push you out. I can only tell you about Eunuch Fu and the cigarette bag."
Shi Fuxin's complexion changed, and she was about to say something when she was interrupted by Chu Yao.
"The emperor personally interrogated Machuan Majiang. I was not there, so I don't know what they said. As soon as the emperor came out, he asked me a lot about you."
Chu Yao looked at Shi Fuxin seriously: "The emperor is very suspicious, do you know how the emperor evaluates Empress Wende? The rooster sits in the morning!"
"You are the head of the Shennong Hall, the boss of the Beauty Hall, and the helm of the Baicao Hall. These emperors can still tolerate them, but you can't get involved in the struggle for imperial power. Do you understand what I mean?"
