I Have a Luck Altar

Chapter 450 Ancestral Worship Ceremony!

Chen Yuan, who left from Chunhua Palace, didn't know that Sima Ke had already made up so many things in his brain. This was simply a slander and slander to him. What happened?

His name is Chen Yuan, not Cao Yuan, and the character of the prime minister has nothing to do with him.

After leaving the Chunhua Palace, Chen Yuan, again pretending to search the harem several times carefully, left the harem when the ink was dark.

The truth is already very clear, but Chen Yuan can't say it. He can only use it to achieve his own goals. Taoist.

"Everyone, we have found the place where Senior Moro was suppressed!!!"

This is Chen Yuan's sound transmission, and immediately after that, one after another, the lights in the Tianshu space flicker and light up.

"well done!"

Li Suqing replied.

"Yes, we did not misread you."

Chu Changfeng agreed.

It wasn't until Chen Yuan found the place where Senior Mo Luo was suppressed that they breathed a sigh of relief. If they couldn't find it, even if they directed all the eyes of the court masters to other places, it would still be of no use. It's just death in vain.

But now that they have found it, some of their arrangements can be finished quickly, and they must be foolproof.

"Where?"

Jiang He's voice was still cold.

"Lenggong."

Chen Yuan said in a deep voice.

"Lenggong?"

"It's here."

"Now that you know the place, things will be easier to handle later."

Then, several people said something about the grand ceremony of worshiping the ancestors in the book of heaven, with a very dignified tone.

"Chen Yuan, we will entrust you to rescue Senior Mo Luo this time."

"Be careful."

"careful."

A series of dignified voices came out from the heavenly book, the tone was very firm, Chen Yuan was a little silent for a while, the court worshiped the ancestors, there were countless strong men, he could imagine how dangerous it was.

Even though these Taoist masters are very powerful, they are still very dangerous. It is very likely that they will risk their lives to buy him more time.

And once they show up, it's hard to leave.

But these people are still very determined.

He has never met that senior Moro, and he doesn't know what kindness he has to them, or how much charm he has, so that these temporary heroes will rescue him at any cost.

"I will try my best."

Chen Yuan replied solemnly.

Not to mention that Dao Shrine has helped him many times, and now it's time for him to repay the debt. Just to trace his own background, he cannot do without the help of this senior Moro.

Although it will take some risks, it must be done.

They each talked about some things, and this discussion was considered to be over.

And Chen Yuan also put away the Heavenly Book, and fell into practice again.

In front of these people, Shidan's cultivation base was still a little too weak, so weak that they could not even regard Chen Yuan as the main force, but entrusted him with the important task of rescuing Mo Luo.

After a night of nothing to say, Chen Yuan opened his eyes early again. After eating in the mansion, he did not delay too much, and went to inspect the East Imperial City Division according to the usual track.

The ancestor worship ceremony is approaching, it is stupid to be different, the best thing is to be the same as usual, and because this event is coming, it can be keenly noticed that the imperial city seems to have been mobilized.

Just to prepare for this grand ceremony.

The three-year ancestor worship ceremony is not uncommon. It has happened dozens of times in previous years, so most people have not connected this event with other things.

The state of mind is very peaceful.

Of course, that doesn't mean they don't pay attention.

Perhaps in the eyes of those important court officials, this matter is just going through the motions, but for ordinary officials, if there is a slight mistake,

It's a big deal to lose your head.

After staying in the Eastern Imperial City Division for a while, before Chen Yuan could do other things, Jingtai's oral order came again, summoning him to the Imperial Study Room for an audience.

He knew that if nothing else happened, it should be about Concubine Shu's death.

But unexpectedly, Jingtai seemed to be in a hurry.

Before Chen Yuan was unwilling to take the initiative to report, he was waiting for Jingtai's summons, and then covered it up. He thought that Jingtai might bring up this matter after the ancestor worship ceremony.

It was completely unexpected that the other party would hurry up and urge him only on the second day.

Could it be

Jingtai really doesn't know?

He felt that should not be the case.

With all kinds of thoughts in his heart, Chen Yuan came to the imperial study room again. After reporting, he saw Jingtai and Cao Zhengxian, almost the same as yesterday.

Jingtai was still fiddling with something indifferently, while Cao Zhengxian waited on him.

"Snapped."

Hearing the voice of Chen Yuan coming, Jingtai put down the paintbrush in his hand, raised his head and stared at Chen Yuan.

"My minister sees Your Majesty."

Chen Yuan bowed and said.

"Stay flat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Chen Yuan raised his head calmly.

Jingtai asked casually: "I heard from people in the palace that Chen Aiqing went back very late yesterday, and she didn't go to the harem again today. Did you find something?"

Chen Yuan's eyes flickered, and he said quickly:

"Return to Your Majesty, I did find out some things."

"Tell me."

"This minister thinks that Concubine Shu's falling into the water should be an accident."

Jingtai frowned:

"Accident? Is this your answer?"

"Yes." Chen Yuan nodded respectfully, and then said:

"Concubine Shu often watches the moon in the attic, and the maids are not allowed to follow. The starry sky was dark on the day of falling into the water. Perhaps it was too dark at night, and she accidentally stepped on the air and fell into the water.

As for the two court ladies, they had received orders from Concubine Shu before, not to go up to the attic rashly, and disturb their elegance. This is why I deduced,

Only then did Concubine Shu fall into the water and die. "

"Is there any more?"

Jingtai asked indifferently.

From these cryptic words given by Chen Yuan, it has been shown that Concubine Shu died in the process of stealing someone, and this matter has been linked for a long time.

However, it seems that he is not satisfied.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Yuan knew that he had to reveal something to Jingtai, otherwise in his eyes, he was still a little ineffective, and immediately said:

"Weichen also smelled a faint smell of dragon fragrance ink on the corpse of Concubine Shu, but Concubine Shu has always been quite proficient in calligraphy and painting, so there is nothing unusual about this matter."

Speaking of this, Chen Yuan basically gave out most of the clues, pointing directly at the princes in the palace, and if he went on, he could only reveal Sima Ke.

He estimated that Jingtai's brain was enough to infer some things.

Jingtai stared at Chen Yuan very calmly, the atmosphere in the imperial study room seemed to be completely frozen, and the huge pressure enveloped Chen Yuan invisible in an instant.

If it weren't for him being a bit of a city, he would be flustered just under this pressure, and then he would completely tell the whole thing, but like that,

I am afraid that Jingtai will not only vent his anger on him, but also leak the ban on the badge.

What does a foreign minister want to do by threatening the noble concubine to get a ban on free access to the harem?

If you think about it casually, you know that Chen Yuan's mind is not right.

It wasn't that Chen Yuan was deliberately protecting Sima Ke, he actually wanted to kill this guy, but the situation was right in front of him, he couldn't do anything, and he would have to be involved if he did.

Besides, with this guy's black material in his hands, if he really has any plans in the future, he can control this guy.

However, he felt that he should not need this guy.

After a long time, Jingtai slowly retracted his gaze, and said lightly:

"I know."

"Since the conclusion of this matter has been settled, there is no need to investigate further. All the maids around Concubine Shu will be executed as a warning to others, and Concubine Shu's body should also be collected and buried."

Jingtai sat down slowly, tapping the table with his fingers.

"The humble minister obeys the order."

Chen Yuan nodded.

It's just a pity that those two maids, even though they cooperated very well to find out the truth, they still had to die. Because sometimes, the truth is not important, not even the face of the royal family.

Thinking about it now, I'm afraid that another court lady who never asked to bypass her has already foreseen her end, so she didn't say a word and let the torture go.

"The ancestor worship ceremony will be held in a few days. After Chen Qing has dealt with this matter, let's go back and start preparing."

Jingtai said lightly.

"Yes, I obey the order."

"Stand back."

"Wei Chen will leave."

Chen Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, stared at the ground, and slowly left from the imperial study.

After he left for about ten breaths, Jingtai stared at the teacup in front of him and asked softly:

"What does Cao Qing think of what Chen Yuan said?"

Cao Zhengxian hurriedly said:

"Commander Chen's ability to handle affairs is still trustworthy. Since he said so, the death of Concubine Shu must have been an accident."

Jingtai sneered:

"Long Xiangmo's aura, Cao Qing, who do you think is qualified to use Long Xiangmo in the palace?"

Cao Zhengxian naturally knew what Jingtai was talking about, and said in a low voice:

"Perhaps someone deliberately framed it."

How could Cao Zhengxian not know what Chen Yuan understood?

He has a high status in the palace and is a veteran of several dynasties, but naturally he must avoid scandals in the royal family.

Jingtai: "Chen Yuan is a smart man."

As Chen Yuan guessed, did Jingtai really not know that there was something wrong with Concubine Shu's death?

No, he knows.

Not only did he know, but he also knew that it must be a scandal, that's why he ordered Chen Yuan not to make it public. In fact, his eyes had already been suspicious of several princes.

Especially Sima Ke.

With the means of the emperor, it is not too easy to check some things.

But he still pretended not to know.

The purpose was similar to what Chen Yuan had guessed before, one was to stop those sloppy mouths, the other was to not want to show off, and the third was to see if Chen Yuan was a sensible person.

If the scandal between a certain prince and concubine Shu is really made public, it will prove that Chen Yuan is not a smart person and lacks awe of the royal family.

Such a person, no matter how talented they are, is not worthy of being cultivated by the imperial court.

Fortunately, Chen Yuan knew the seriousness of the matter, and not only told the general situation of the matter, but never mentioned the slightest scandal, and gave him the initiative to deal with it.

If such a person is trained well, he will be a good horse for the Sima family in the future.

"Commander Chen is indeed smart."

Cao Zhengxian agreed.

"What do you think of marrying Pingyang to Chen Yuan?" Jingtai said with twinkling eyes.

The best way to win over Chen Yuan and consolidate his loyalty to the Sima family is to make him a relative of the emperor.

Only when he truly becomes his own person can he cultivate with confidence.

"This..." Cao Zhengxian narrowed his eyes.

"Why, Cao Qing has a different opinion?"

"The old minister just feels that something is inappropriate."

"Ok?"

"Chen Yuan is indeed a rare talent in this world, and it is rare to see him in a hundred years. However, Her Highness Princess Pingyang is also a treasure in His Majesty's palm, and she has a stubborn personality. She betrothed to Chen Yuan.

I'm afraid he will be reluctant, and this Chen Yuan's heart is cruel and fierce, which will inevitably lead to conflicts with His Royal Highness Pingyang. The most important thing is that Chen Yuan has family members in Tangshan, and he especially likes women. Princess Pingyang has the deepest taboo on this matter."

Jingtai took a deep look at Cao Zhengxian, and said in a low voice:

"Since that's the case, let's discuss this matter in the future."

"Your Majesty is holy."

A faint smile appeared on Cao Zhengxian's face.

Because of Yang Yuanqing's incident before, he had some small grievances with Chen Yuan. Although he wouldn't use bullying to calculate him, he could still do it sometimes.

Chen Yuan belongs to the Sky Survey Division, and is valued by those guys. He doesn't want Chen Yuan's status to be higher, but he also knows that this matter cannot be stopped by just talking about it.

If Jingtai insists on this, then it is useless for anyone to say.

"I heard that the people from the Imperial Superintendent's Department have caught a few restless guys recently?"

Jingtai said suddenly.

"I did catch a few recently. Your Majesty, you also know that whenever a major event such as the ancestor worship ceremony is approaching, some demonic thieves will always want to make trouble."

"How did you deal with it?"

"It has been pressed into the sky prison and is being interrogated strictly."

Jingtai's eyes became serious:

"The grand ceremony of worshiping the ancestors is no small matter. We must be careful and careful, so as not to cause any turmoil. We should have a good trial of those guys. It would be best if we can know some plans in advance."

"The old minister understands."

"Well, if you don't say anything, you will be tortured. If you don't say anything, you will castrate them, so that they can't be men, and they will become neither male nor female."

Jingtai stared at Cao Zhengxian with a smile in the corner of his eyes.

Hearing this sentence, Cao Zhengxian, who had a wrinkled smile on his face, froze immediately, and nodded embarrassingly.

He understood, it was Jingtai who was beating him too

After leaving the palace, Chen Yuan took people straight to the harem to settle the case of concubine Shu. Jingtai had already spoken, so he naturally followed his wishes. Concubine Shu's death was an accident, and this matter must be settled, and it cannot be tolerated. Anyone questioned.

At the same time, he buried Concubine Shu's body, completely sealed the matter, and vented his anger on a few palace maids, and the matter came to a logical end.

As for whether Jingtai thinks about Sima Ke, it has nothing to do with him. Even if he knew that Sima Ke Chaoyue had hooked up with Concubine Shu, he would never do it at this juncture.

Besides, without the child in Concubine Shu's womb, there would be no ironclad evidence.

In order to better control the Fourth Prince and Concubine Yang, Chen Yuan directly sent Tao Qingyuan to secretly take out the unformed dead baby from Concubine Shu's stomach and put it somewhere.

If Sima Ke is crucified in the future, this thing will be ironclad proof!

Sima Ke in the harem finally heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the news that the matter was over. At this moment, he no longer wondered whether Chen Yuan had anything to do with his mother or concubine.

Even if there is, he can't control it.

It is a blessing to be able to take care of yourself.

Furthermore.

The mother and concubine have been in the body for a long time, and Chen Yuan is young and strong, so it is not certain who will suffer

After solving Concubine Shu's case, Chen Yuan stopped stepping into the harem, which made Concubine Yang, who had been staring at Chen Yuan, a little suspicious. She thought that there was some secret behind Chen Yuan's ban on the harem. Could it be that she was thinking too much?

Afterwards, everything was developing to a better place. All the Taoist masters of the Taoist Palace had already come to the capital, and they all agreed to meet in Chen Yuan's Earl's Mansion the day before they agreed to do it.

As time passed day by day, the things about Chen Yuan's breakthrough and Dongying warriors in the capital were rarely mentioned, and new major events in the world were replaced.

For example, the wind and cloud list has changed again. How big is the gap between the top three of the new Qianlong list and the previous one.

For example, two Huayang masters fought somewhere, and several mountains collapsed.

For example, the northern barbarians knocked off again.

They also took advantage of the time when the Jin court worshiped the ancestors, causing great losses to the border.

And Chen Yuan also completely fell into silence, while practicing, while waiting for the arrival of the ancestor worship ceremony, at the same time, he was also preparing for this matter.

In fact, his duty is very simple, that is, at the beginning of the grand ceremony, he and several other imperial city commanders will do a good job of protecting the periphery, and then basically nothing else will happen.

The real defense must be the palace guards and martial arts experts.

But in the past few days, a gossip spread from the palace, saying that the emperor intends to accept Chen Yuan as his son-in-law and betroth the eldest princess Pingyang to him.

As soon as the news came out, many people were surprised.

After the astonishment passed, it was just a casual joke. No one in the capital knew that the eldest princess Pingyang was the most staunch and very assertive, and such a thing as a gift of marriage would never happen to her.

At the beginning, Jingtai had promised Pingyang that as long as she was unwilling, Jingtai would not insist on the marriage.

This is the first time among the princesses, and the only one with this honor.

Therefore, many people simply feel that this matter is not credible.

Even Chen Yuan felt the same way, and when he learned about it from Tao Qingyuan, he just smiled casually, then ignored it and focused on his cultivation.

He himself has no interest in becoming Jingtai's son-in-law. I believe Princess Pingyang also thinks the same way.

Just as one would expect, Princess Pingyang did not release the slightest clarification, and seemed to ignore such matters.

There is only one person who really cares, and that is the fourth prince Sima Ke.

When he heard about this, his first reaction was no.

Pingyang is his royal sister.

Concubine Mu is his own mother.

How could such a thing happen?

He will never allow it.

Obviously, Sima Ke misunderstood something. He had seen Chen Yuan look at his mother and concubine before, and he was simply unscrupulous. If he had the opportunity,

How could it not make some exorbitant demands?
