Chapter 412 [Continued] Great

Seeing this scene, Xu Jiajing couldn't help but look at Cui Yunhao again. He was sitting upright, talking in a low voice with the officials next to him. The look in his eyes made Xu Jiajing involuntarily think of a lone wolf, sharp and calm.

Shocking.

But soon, Cui Yunhao returned to his usual gentleness and politeness. He smiled politely at Xu Jiajing, and Xu Jiajing also nodded slightly, not dissatisfied with himself as a student in his heart.

All of this was planned by Cui Yunhao, so that the crown prince will be proud for a while, the greater the Yongtai Emperor's expectations for him, the more obvious the gap will be, and at this moment tonight, this gap will be magnified to the extreme .

The prince stared at King Yong and Emperor Yongtai, slowly drank the wine in the glass, a glint of misery flashed in his eyes, and soon disappeared without a trace.

The business of Tingyu Tea House is the most prosperous. It is the twelfth lunar month every year. At the end of the year, officials who have traveled to Beijing to report their duties in thirteen provinces will come here to sit and sit, because from the second floor, you can see them at a glance. I saw the gate of Xuanren, and the roof of the palace in the imperial city.

On this day, there was heavy snow falling outside the door, the weather was bad, but there were no shortage of tea drinkers, and a charcoal fire was burning in the lobby, which was as warm as spring.

A man wearing a cloak and a cloak came in from the outside. His face could not be seen clearly, but judging from his height, he looked like a young man. Xiao Er immediately went up to him, as if he recognized him He said in a low voice: "This place is full, please go upstairs."

The man nodded, went up the stairs, walked familiarly to the private room at the far end on the right, knocked lightly twice, and a voice came from inside: "Please come in."

The young man walked in and saw two people sitting by the window, he took off his cloak and cloak, saluted and said: "My lord, teacher."

King Yong smiled and said, "Yun Hao is here, sit down quickly and drink a cup of tea to warm up."

Xu Jiajing stretched out his hand to pour tea for him, and said in his mouth: "The snow hasn't stopped these few days, it's falling hard."

Cui Yunhao watched the clear water create a vortex in the cup, the tea leaves were ups and downs, and the tea soup gradually turned blue, he said, "Auspicious snow heralds a good year, so there must be a good year next year."

"I hope." King Yong was drinking tea, the tea was fragrant in the room, and the air was extremely quiet. At this moment, there was the sound of horseshoes rushing by downstairs, accompanied by the sound of shouting.

King Yong's expression changed, and he said, "What's wrong?"

Cui Yunhao was sitting by the window, so he opened the window sash slightly, revealing only a gap, then looked down, and saw a group of soldiers passing by on horseback. people."

Xu Jiajing suddenly said: "I remember that Wei Zheng, the commander of Dongcheng soldiers and horses, got very close to that person recently?"

He looked at King Yong, who nodded and said, "A few days ago they were still discussing matters in Yuyu Building."

The people downstairs had already passed by, and the street became silent again, leaving only a few rows of messy horseshoe prints. Cui Yunhao slowly closed the window, and suddenly said, "It's almost time."

King Yong suddenly raised his head: "Are you sure?"

Cui Yunhao said: "His patience is only so much, I guess the time is almost around the Shangyuan Festival..."

Since the beginning of winter, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Emperor Yongtai's health has not been very good, and the imperial physician is always waiting for the summons from the palace.

"The emperor's health is not very good. On the night of Shangyuan Festival, he vomited blood and fell into a coma." Chu Yingying carefully trimmed the branches of plum blossoms, and said slowly: "I remember very clearly that time, the prince entered the palace overnight and kept After guarding for two days before returning to the mansion, although the emperor's illness gradually recovered, but in the end it hurt the foundation."

"If the prince wants to make trouble in the near future, the day of Shangyuan Festival is the best day, because during the festival, the guards at the palace gate are a little lax and can be easily controlled."

Chu Yingying's words flashed in Cui Yunhao's mind, his eyes softened for a moment, and soon became clear again. He told King Yong and Xu Jiajing the reasons one by one, except for the fact that Emperor Yongtai would be in a coma, and said : "When that day comes, we'll make preparations early. If the prince doesn't act, of course it's fine."

He paused as he spoke, and said, "However, I don't think he will let go of this great opportunity."

King Yong thoughtfully, nodded his head slowly, and said, "In that case, we have to discuss it and make arrangements early."

Xu Jiajing echoed, "Indeed."

The three of them discussed this matter, and they didn't leave until it was dark. The heavy snow outside had become much smaller. Cui Yunhao got into the carriage and said to Uncle Jia, "Go back."

"Yes."

At the entrance of Cui's house, lanterns were hung high, and the dim light was projected on the snow, reflecting a bright light.

Cui Yunhao walked all the way into the courtyard, his steps were brisk, and he was in a good mood. When he saw Chu Yingying by the window, his mood became even better, and the corners of his mouth began to lift slightly.

Seeing his cold body, Chu Yingying immediately came over to untie the cloak for him, and said, "Why have you been here for so long?"

Cui Yunhao looked down at her long eyelashes, and said softly: "Discussing things with the prince and the others, I didn't pay attention to the time."

Chu Yingying touched his hand and said, "It's so cold."

Turning around, he stuffed a Tang Pozi to warm him, and said, "How's the discussion going?"

Cui Yunhao told her the plan slowly, looked at her brightly, and said, "Yingying, do you think it will succeed?"

Chu Yingying thought for a while, and said uncertainly, "I don't know much about this, but it sounds like you have arranged things very carefully. If there are no accidents, there will be no problem."

Cui Yunhao leaned close to her cheek, rubbed it lightly, sighed comfortably, narrowed his eyes, and said, "Yingying, that's great."

Chu Yingying was tickled by him, she wanted to laugh, she hid herself, and said, "What's so good?"

Cui Yunhao opened his eyes, looked at her, and said, "It's great that you are here."

Thank God, let me meet you in this life.

Yongwang Mansion.

King Yong strode across the snow-covered courtyard. When the servants of the palace saw him, they immediately bowed down and bowed down. King Yong swept around the house, and then went into the inner room to look around. The person who should be here most I don't know where to go.

He frowned and said, "Where is the princess?"

Several servants looked at each other, as if they didn't know how to speak, King Yong frowned even tighter, and asked, "What's wrong with the princess?"

A servant bravely replied: "Princess, she... she went to treat Mrs. Liu's illness."

King Yong was stunned for a moment, Nahan said: "Cure? What disease will she cure?"

The servant said, "I don't know, I don't know, I just went there not long ago."

King Yong thought for a while and said, "Go and have a look."

A few servants immediately put on a big cloak for him, took a lantern and an umbrella, and the group walked to the back garden in a mighty manner.

Before reaching Mrs. Liu's courtyard, she heard a miserable woman's cry from inside, resounding through the night sky.

King Yong's footsteps faltered, and then he took big strides to walk into the room, but saw that the room was brightly lit and crowded with servants, all of them gathered around the inner door, and stretched their necks to look inside.
