The world is heavy and late

Chapter 142
When Xia Qing returned to her room, the guards outside said that the prince had been taken back by the people from the East Palace.

Xia Qing nodded, she thought about it in the room, and felt that Lu Jin had probably reported the matter to the emperor at this time, and she had to tell Gu Weiyun about it.

Let's not talk about how solemn Gu Weiyun's face was after hearing Xia Qing's story.

At this time, the emperor's expression was unclear, and the emperor was still holding the booklet presented yesterday, and asked Lu Jin slightly, "You said that Xia Qing went to the racecourse, and then I told you These words?"

Lu Jin bowed and said, "Yes, at the end of the day, Aunt Xia looked at the horse first, and then saw the things on the servant, her face was not very good."

The emperor squinted his eyes and looked at the booklet in his hand, wondering what he was thinking, Lu Jin dared not speak, he didn't even raise his head, and even breathed a little longer, hoping that this matter would not fall on him in the end .

After a long time, the emperor said, "What happened to the horse?"

Lu Jin's head lowered, he didn't want to peek into the emperor's heart at all, anyway he thought the emperor would not be very happy, he said: "The imperial doctor has come to see it, but I haven't seen the inside yet."

At this moment, the emperor's heart was full of doubts and suspicions, and he sensitively felt that there were bigger matters involved.But Xia Qing...

He didn't think that Xia Qing would be bought by anyone. What was it that made her insist on going to see it in person?
He said to Lu Jin: "Go down, keep an eye on people first."

After Lu Jin bowed and retired, the emperor called Xu Ji and asked, "What happened today?"

Not long after Xu Jicai got the news, he heard the emperor's question, his thoughts were racing, but he said calmly: "There is a thing, it is said that His Highness the Crown Prince fell asleep at Aunt Xia's place, and was just captured by the East Palace. The palace servants carried it back."

When the emperor heard the news of the prince, he frowned fiercely. What about the prince?

But at this moment, the emperor didn't want to hear Xu Ji talk about this matter anymore, because it was obvious that Xia Qing was the only person who knew the most about this matter. He said, "Where is Xia Qing, call her here."

Of course Xu Ji also listened to it. He hadn't had time to tell about the suspected injury of the crown prince. He thought that it was hard to hide the news, otherwise no one would get well. Thinking of the news, he felt a little nervous and swallowed. , The fine sweat on the forehead began to emerge unconsciously again.

Xu Ji bowed his body and lowered his head a little lower, and said, "Aunt Xia is probably in Weiyang Palace at the moment, Your Majesty, today Aunt Xia recruited the director of the Imperial Hospital to treat her, and the Crown Prince was there at the time."

The emperor's face became gloomy all of a sudden, and his eyes shot directly at Xu Ji, as if he was going to make two holes in him, and suddenly lost all mood, he said directly: "Show me."

Xu Ji hurriedly followed, he was so scared and nervous at the moment that the prince had an accident, no one could easily get past it.

Just feeling the low pressure on the emperor's body, he could feel short of breath, and he was still a little anxious. How dare Xia Qing not report to His Majesty when he found out that the prince was injured?
As soon as the emperor arrived at the prince's courtyard, the palace people inside all knelt down in fear, their faces were all pale, no one dared to make a sound, and the emperor didn't even give them a look, and walked straight inside.

The prince had already woken up when the emperor arrived. In fact, he had already woken up when he just came back. After all, Xia Qing's room was still a bit stuffy, but because there were many ice basins in his room, it was a bit cold to sleep now.

Seeing the emperor come in with a sullen face, the prince shrank his neck, reached out and took the quilt to cover his lap.

Then he smiled sweetly and said, "Why is the father here?"

Well, Xia Qing said that he was the cutest at this time.

But who is the emperor, he just snorted, his complexion improved a lot when he saw the prince sitting there properly, and he didn't look like there was anything serious when he saw the prince's flushed cheeks.

He directly stepped forward to uncover the quilt that the prince had just covered, and said, "It's so hot, what are you doing with this thing?"

The prince felt a little guilty, but he didn't dare to stop him, because the imperial doctor said he couldn't move for a month, and he would be found out sooner or later. As expected, the emperor frowned fiercely when he looked at the prince's legs, and asked in a calm voice: "What's going on? "

The prince lowered his head and said, "I fell off the horse and broke my bone."

The emperor breathed a sigh of relief first, he thought it was broken.

But in the next moment, he thought a lot about what happened at the racecourse today, what about Xia Qing, and another matter. He asked in a calm voice, "I remember you didn't have a martial arts class today."

The prince suddenly reached out and hugged his father's hand, blinked at the emperor and said: "Father, are you tired today?"

The emperor snorted, didn't ask him this, but narrowed his eyes, and asked as if thinking of something: "How did you fall?"

The prince was caught off guard by his father asking this, paused for a while, blushed a little, and then whispered: "When I got on the horse, I didn't sit firmly, and I accidentally fell off."

The anger rising in the emperor's chest became more and more serious. If he hadn't looked at the prince's leg being bandaged now, he would have slapped the prince several times.

After holding back for a long time, I still couldn't hold it back. I reached out to the prince and started patting his ass.

Is the prince the kind of person who won't beg for mercy when he is beaten?Obviously not.

All of a sudden, the room became extremely lively, with the loud sound of palms clapping on the buttocks, the sound of the prince crying for mercy, and occasional angry reprimands from the emperor.

The emperor had guessed pretty well at this moment, and knew what Xia Qing was going to do.

Now he is not only angry with the person behind the scenes, but also with the prince.

He felt that the kid didn't listen to anything, so after hitting him several times, he found that he didn't calm down, but became more and more angry.

He stopped, looked at the sobbing prince and said:

"I see that you are getting bolder now. You dare to go secretly to ride a horse. You dare to go alone even if the horse is still unsteady. From now on, you will write [-] more characters every day. During this period of time, you will be grounded. I will let Zhang Zhi Teach you well, what is a prince."

The prince had already been taught by Xia Qing once, and he knew the reason why a gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall.

Xia Qing said to the prince before going to the racecourse: "Your Highness, you might as well think about it. If something really happened today; first of all, as a state reserve, how many people will lose their names along with you; secondly, as a prince, why don't you think about it?" Emperor, people say that parents who suffer from body, hair and skin, what will you do if something happens to you, and where will you put the concubine and servants? The servants have always felt that His Highness can learn many things slowly as a prince, but there is only one thing that His Highness must do. What you always keep in mind is your life, and your life is not just your name, just like if you were injured today, those palace people must be punished, if something happens to you, many people will die."

Therefore, looking at the emperor who was so angry at this time, he didn't dare to be as naughty as before, but said: "Father, I know I was wrong, I will never sneak out next time, and I will never dare not pay attention to my own life."

Only then did the emperor let out a sigh of relief, looking at the prince who had already known his mistake, he was a little pitiful, and he hated the people behind the scenes even more.

He was angry with the crown prince just because the crown prince was really bold and reckless, and he really didn't spare his life.

But for those people, a storm slowly gathered in his eyes.
