It wasn't until recently that Xuanyuan Jin tried his best to "excavate" his wet nurse again! Because, for Xuanyuan Jin, this wet nurse knew too much...

If you want to achieve great things, you have to eliminate it.

"Slave...slave..." The woman looked around anxiously, trembling and not knowing how to answer.

She knew that Xuanyuan Jin originally wanted to put her to death, so she sneaked into the mourning hall today, hoping to make Xuanyuan Jin remember her previous care for him and let her live "in front of the emperor".

But she didn't expect that she accidentally overheard the conversation between Xuanyuan Jin and that subordinate...

Although she didn't understand the content of what they said, she was smart enough to realize that it must be an ulterior secret, and anyone who eavesdropped would definitely die! She was really in trouble this time!

"Is the nanny also here to pay homage to my father?" Xuanyuan Jin smiled slightly, pretended to step forward to help the woman up from the ground, and said loudly toward the door, "Here comes someone!"

"Your Majesty!" Several guards rushed in immediately and stood respectfully in front of Xuanyuan Jin, waiting for his orders.

They are all people placed by Xuanyuan Jin in the palace. Of course, they are Xuanyuan Jin's eyes and ears, and they only listen to Xuanyuan Jin's orders.

"Nanny has finished paying homage to our father. Send her back to have a good rest." Xuanyuan Jin pretended to be concerned and said, pushing the woman towards the guard, adding with a hint of chill in her voice, "The group of maids who took care of the nanny.

, I don’t even know that if the nanny comes over and doesn’t serve her well, she will be punished!”

On the surface, it sounds high-sounding, but in fact, there is hidden murderous intention - those palace maids didn't look at people properly, and even this was of no use. They really deserved to be "punished"!

"Yes." The guard grabbed the nanny's arm and just walked away, but the nanny flinched and shook her hand violently to break free.

"Your Majesty, please spare my life!" Her eyes were filled with tears, and she knelt at Xuanyuan Jin's feet. She knew that the man in front of her was no longer the child he was back then, and she could only look up in despair and awe.

He said, "It's slaves who came here secretly. Don't blame them. slaves...please spare my life!"

Those palace maids were, after all, her friends in the palace. They were kind enough to let her out to plead for mercy. How could she involve them again?

"What are you doing, nanny?" Xuanyuan Jin's voice was cold, and he grabbed one of the woman's arms but did not pull her out. His brows could not help but frown a little, "I am only doing things in accordance with the rules of the palace.

"

A pun - punishing the palace maids was based on the palace rules because they did not look after people; killing the wet nurse was also based on the palace rules because she knew too much about the past.

"Your Majesty, I know what you want to do!" The woman was also anxious. She knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Xuanyuan Jin. "I promised that I would not publicize what happened back then. I have been keeping it for the rest of my life. Do you still want to do it?"

Don’t you believe me? Your Majesty, you..."

"Get out!" Xuanyuan Jin's face turned cold, and he waved to the guards beside him, not wanting them to guess anything, and motioning for them to leave.

After they left, he slowly squatted down, approached the wet nurse, and spoke to her word by word: "I only believe the mouths of dead people!"

Besides, he still understands the principle that a big tree attracts the wind! In the past, he was just a prince, and not many people were staring at him. But in the future, if he were the emperor, people all over the world would be staring at him!

"Your Majesty..." He finally said these "clear words", which made the woman's face froze, and her face became even more pale.

"Remembering the wet nurse's care for me, I have even prepared the coffin for the wet nurse, and I will bury her well... How about using the courtesy of a queen?" He narrowed his eyes, with a cold expression on his face.

Laugh, I don’t intend to save her life anyway, so it doesn’t hurt to tell her.

"You..." The woman was completely stunned and stood there in shock. It wasn't until Xuanyuan Jin's hand was about to wrap around her neck that she screamed in fear.

"My lord, spare your life! You can let me do whatever you want me to do. I can work hard for you. I can be like...like everyone else..." Her tears kept falling. As a woman who had stayed in the palace for decades,

The old palace maid, she couldn't help but be greedy for life and afraid of death in the end.

"Really?" With a cold snort, Xuanyuan Jin suddenly came up with a plan and thought of a good way to kill two birds with one stone, "Then... take this and help me kill Xuanyuan Shuo, and I will believe you!"

kindness?"

After that, he picked up a dagger and raised it in front of her, gesturing for her to take it.

Let her kill Xuanyuan Shuo. No matter whether he fails or succeeds, she will still die. The difference is that he has a high-sounding crime of killing her! If Xuanyuan Shuo is killed by her, it will save him a lot of trouble in the future.

The nanny took the knife tremblingly, her eyes widened, and she kept swallowing her saliva. She didn't expect that the Second Prince's order actually asked her to take this step!

However, she had no way out.

***************************

There were many envoys entering the palace today to pay homage, which made the usually cold palace gate seem to be crowded with people. There were people dressed in other countries' costumes coming and going all the time, and the guards could not check them for a while.

Su Tong casually wrapped herself in a big piece of cloth, covering herself tightly, with only her eyes exposed. She made a foreign salute to the guards, then hugged Huo'er and slipped into the palace easily.

Firstly, she wanted to know who the "phoenix coffin" was for? Secondly, since she was going to the imperial mausoleum with her tomorrow, it would be a good idea to come over today to get to know each other and ourselves!

"Huo'er, let's wait here first, and ask some guards later." In the corner, Su Tong put Huo'er down, and at the same time tossed aside the cloth wrapped around him, and suddenly thought of something else.

"By the way, I forgot to bring some self-defense weapons..."

Damn it, where are there any musical instruments in the palace?
