The Rebirth of the Deposed Empress

Chapter 190: The Queen's Aunt's Temper Has Not Changed at All

Lin Yuan acted quickly, and within a few days, Ye Chuji received a secret letter from Lin Yuan.

The secret letter contained a lot of information related to the Northern Kingdom, the most important of which was the information related to the Northern Kingdom's royal family that Ye Lanfeng had asked someone to investigate.

This also happened to be what Lin Siyu asked Lin Yuan to steal.

Lin Siyu read the secret letter carefully, a part of which mentioned the white bone poison.

Unfortunately, Ye Lanfeng might not have valued this thing and did not investigate it further, but Lin Siyu already knew the rest of the secrets about the Northern Kingdom’s royal family.

She let go with a cold face, and the secret letter floated into the fire and turned into ashes.

"I thought I could find something, but it's useless."

Lin Siyu said this expressionlessly, and it was unclear whether she was scolding Ye Lanfeng or simply describing the secret letter.

Late at night, Ye Chuji hid from the people sent by Ye Lanfeng to monitor him and left the East Palace.

Someone suddenly came to visit in the middle of the night. Meng Shi asked the servants sleepily, "Who is it in the middle of the night?"

Meng Shi put on his clothes impatiently, and saw Ye Chuji wrapped in a black cloak with only a pair of eyes showing at the door.

Meng Shi quickly came to his senses and quickly moved aside to let Ye Chuji into the yard. His eyes scanned the door like an eagle, and he closed the door only when he saw no one was paying attention.

"Your Highness, wait a moment."

Ye Chuji's late-night visit must have something important to tell him, so Meng Shi quickly sent someone to inform Bei Su.

After a cup of tea, Bei Su stepped into the reception room, glanced at Ye Chuji who looked a little embarrassed due to house arrest, and said leisurely:

"Your Highness the Crown Prince sneaked out of the East Palace so late at night, aren't you afraid that the Emperor will find out?"

Ye Chuji pretended not to understand the sarcasm in his words, and directly handed him the secret letter handed over by Lin Yuan, saying:

"I came here to make a deal with His Highness."

Bei Su unfolded the secret letter, glanced at the contents, and threw the letter aside casually. He had the same thought as Lin Siyu, "Useless stuff."

"Your Highness, are you trying to use these things as bargaining chips to get me to find a way to help you?"

As the prince of the Northern Kingdom, what royal secrets did Bei Su not know? Ye Chuji did not think that just a little information about the Northern Kingdom would make Bei Su agree to help him.

He said, "This is just a small token of my sincerity. After the matter is accomplished, I will give Mobei to the Fourth Prince as a reward to him."

Bei Su naturally wanted Mobei, but the price of helping Ye Chuji, the prince who had lost his power, would definitely be high, so Bei Su did not agree immediately.

After thinking for a moment, Bei Su suddenly thought of something. He looked up at Ye Chuji and said word by word:

"Hua Wu Ke, this prince wants her."

Once he sits in that position, Ye Buhuo will definitely be eliminated, and it is not impossible to send Hua Wuke to Bei Su at that time.

"Yes, after this is done, I will definitely let you marry the beautiful girl."

Bei Su smiled disdainfully and shook his head, saying:

"That won't do. Hua Wu Ke must go back to the Northern Kingdom with this prince."

Ye Chuji frowned and asked, "You mean three days later?"

Bei Su nodded.

Thinking of the current situation, Ye Chuji gritted his teeth and agreed. After a moment, he said:

"I have a plan that may accomplish this."

After listening to his words, Bei Su thought it was feasible, "Tomorrow, this prince will send someone to deliver the things to Your Highness."

The envoys from the Northern Kingdom were about to leave in three days, and Lin Siyu still thought that Bei Su and Meng Shi would not come to see her.

As a result, as soon as she turned around, Bei Su appeared behind her.

Lin Siyu walked straight to the table and sat down without looking around, pouring herself a cup of tea, as if she didn't see Bei Su.

Bei Su was not angry either. He curled his lips slightly and called out, "I haven't seen you for so many years, but the imperial aunt's temper hasn't changed at all."

The long-lost address made Lin Siyu pause for a moment, then she laughed coldly and said:

"The Fourth Prince may have recognized the wrong person. There is only Hua Jingqian's concubine, Aunt Lin, here. There is no Royal Aunt."

"If the Imperial Grandmother and the Imperial Father heard what the Imperial Aunt said, they would be very sad. They have been talking about you, their daughter, all the time. Where is your sister?"

How could a mother feed her daughter poison and then send her daughter to another country to be a spy? Lin Siyu knocked the teacup heavily on the table and said coldly:

"That's enough. What do you want to do today?"

"My nephew wants to borrow the white bone poison from the royal aunt."

"No."

Bei Su didn't expect that Lin Siyu hadn't yet cracked the bone poison, but it made sense. If she had detoxified herself early, she wouldn't have stayed here so obediently.

"Something similar will do. My aunt must have it, right?"

Although Bei Su didn't spend much time with Lin Siyu, he still understood his imperial aunt a little. She would never sit idly by and wait for the imperial grandmother to use the bone poison to control her temper. Even if she hadn't developed the bone poison yet, she should have researched something similar over the years.

Lin Siyu casually took out two porcelain bottles and threw them over, "Don't blame me for not reminding you, there is no antidote for this thing, and within twenty days your whole body will fester and you will die."

Twenty days was enough for him to bring Hua Wu Ke back to the North.

Bei Su took the things, identified which was the antidote and which was the poison, thanked him and turned to leave.

The stuff was delivered to Ye Chuji's palace, and Ye Chuji directly asked someone to deliver it to Hua Jingqian, "Tell him, no matter what method you use, make sure Hua Wuke takes it."

Hua Wu Ke had nothing to do recently, and was just about to go out to meet Lin Xizhi for a small gathering when he heard the servant come to report.

"Princess, Minister Hua sent someone to deliver a letter."

Minister Hua... Hua Wu Ke took a while to react and realized that it was Hua Jing Qian who was talking about. Why did Hua Jing Qian suddenly write to her? Hua Wu Ke took the letter in confusion.

After reading it, Hua Wu Ke felt something was strange and took the letter to find Ye Buhuo.

When Hua Wu Ke entered the study, Ye Bu Huo had just finished his work and was rubbing his temples. He opened his eyes and raised his eyebrows, then pulled Hua Wu Ke into his arms, buried his head in Hua Wu Ke's neck, and said in a buzzing voice:

"Didn't you say you were going to the Lin Residence?"

Hua Wu Ke unfolded the letter sent by Hua Jingqian and motioned for him to read it.

"Hua Jingqian invited me to the Hua Mansion, saying that he suddenly realized that he, as the second uncle, had not done a good enough job before, and he wanted to apologize to me."

Ye Buhuo put his arms around Hua Wuke's waist and read the letter with Hua Wuke's hand. After reading it, he frowned and felt that Hua Jingqian had other intentions, but he still let Hua Wuke make his own decision and said:

"If you don't want to go, don't bother with him. If you want to go, I'll go with you."

"I still want to go, but I want to go alone to investigate the matter that Ye Buhuo asked him to steal the defense map. If you go, Hua Jingqian will definitely be on guard."

Hua Jingqian most likely had ulterior motives. Ye Buhuo pinched the soft flesh on Hua Wuke's waist in dissatisfaction, "You are not allowed to take risks alone."
