Chapter 461
The death of the queen changed Yuan Ji's temperament drastically.
After the funeral, she became ill for a while, and she became a little gloomy, without a smile all day long.
Although she was domineering and ruthless in the past, she was still a cheerful and lively squeamish girl.
Now he is lethargic, angry and noisy at every turn. After the emperor had seen her twice, he was unwilling to see her any more.
Besides staying in his own palace, Yuan Jie went to Yufu Palace to find Gu Yunxiang.
Although Gu Yunxiang was imprisoned, it could not prevent Yuan Yan from entering.
She walked up to Gu Yunxiang and stared at her with gloomy eyes.
Gu Yunxiang was a little irritable, and said patiently: "Princess, you have come here for the third time. I have said everything that needs to be said. What do you want from me?"
Yuan Ji said coldly: "Why did you kill my mother?"
"I didn't!" Gu Yunxiang said patiently, "Princess, don't you understand? The one who really wants to kill the empress is the crown prince, Gu Yundai!"
"Impossible, why did the elder brother want to kill the queen mother?"
"Because the Empress once harmed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Gu Yunxiang sighed, "Isn't the princess ignorant of this? The Empress Empress once harmed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has never had any children. If not, how could the Emperor be angry and accept the Empress Empress?" Phoenix seal?"
Yuan Ji said with a sullen face, "What evidence do you have?"
"Do I still need to show the evidence?" Gu Yunxiang sneered, "That day in the Imperial Garden, the princess saw His Highness the Crown Prince cut off the peonies and sent them to Fengyi Palace. The empress was so angry that she vomited blood. It means that he can't tolerate the empress. What's more..."
She lowered her voice, "The princess should know why the Empress has targeted His Highness the Crown Prince all these years, right?"
Yuan Ji was silent.
She wasn't very interested in these things, but she knew something vaguely.
In her heart, the queen mother naturally hoped that the third brother would inherit the throne.
The relationship between this successor and the former queen's son has always been like fire and water.
The motive of the prince to harm the queen exists.
Yuan Jie said slowly, "But you encouraged Chu Zhaoyi to give Hanshi San to your mother."
"Chu Zhaoyi wants to please the empress and get her favor. Speaking of which, I happened to know about Gu Yundai's cold food powder, so I just told her about it." Gu Yunxiang patiently explained, "Then Gu Yundai knows medicine, so I can understand it." What? I have fought with her before, but in the end, I was played by her. Gu Yundai is a woman with deep scheming and vicious intentions. With her around the prince, what good things can happen? Princess, think about it, before Gu Yundai came, How is the relationship between the empress and the prince? Ever since she came, everything has changed."
After Yuan Ji left Yufu Palace, he asked the emperor to go out of the palace to Lu Wangfu to visit Lu Wang.
The emperor agreed.
When Yuan Jie saw King Lu, he directly told him what Gu Yunxiang said.
King Lu is extremely filial and respectful to the queen. These days, he has been depressed and has been drinking at home to soothe his worries.
"Third brother, you don't want to avenge your mother?" Yuan Yan grabbed his sleeve and shouted with red eyes, "My mother died for no reason, but you are here to drink away your worries, what kind of son are you?"
King Lu glanced at her: "How can I take revenge, and with whom?"
"Of course it's the crown prince and Gu Yundai!" Yuan Yan gritted his teeth and said, "They are the ones who killed the queen mother, they are the ones! They must die!"
King Lu said: "Do you want me to kill the prince?"
Yuan Jie sneered: "Oh, third brother, do you think that when the crown prince takes that position, he can spare you and let you be the prince safely?"
Good night.
