Chapter 178
Jiang Shishi looked at the familiar figure in front of her, who was wearing a black python robe and was fighting with the hound with bare hands, and she couldn't help feeling worried.

Fortunately, the hound didn't entangle with the man for long, and turned to bite the Jianyuan Emperor who was headed up.

At the same time, the guards rushed into the hall in a swarm.

At this moment, Jiang Shishi's brain was dizzy, and there were several double images in front of her eyes. She only felt that the world was spinning for a while, and she passed out at that time.

After that, she didn't know anything.

When Jiang Shishi woke up again, it was already two nights later.

Chun Xing and the new maid Chun Tao were guarding her bedside.

Chun Tao is calm, diligent and capable, so she and Chun Xing serve Jiang Shishi together.

Seeing Jiang Shishi woke up, Chun Xing went to bring water.

Chuntao helped Jiang Shishi sit down beside the bed.

Jiang Shishi sat by the bed, looked at the dark night outside, and asked weakly, "What time is it?"

"I just hit the clapper outside, it's time." Chuntao put a waist pillow on Jiang Shishi's back.

Jiang Shishi: "What happened to the emperor's birthday today?"

"Today?" Chuntao was taken aback for a moment, then she reacted and explained: "My lord, you have been in a coma for two days, and it is already the night of the eighth day of September."

"." Jiang Shishi woke up, still a little confused, not knowing what night it is.

It was only after Jing Chuntao reminded her that she realized that yes, she fell into a coma after helping the prince avoid disaster.

However, this spoiler is very important to the prince, it is a big turning point, and the punishment for spoiler should be more severe.

But she woke up after only two days of coma, which is a bit wrong.

"My lord, please rinse your mouth." Chun Xing came over with water and waited for Jiang Shishi to wash.

Jiang Shishi rinsed her mouth with mint water and asked Chun Xing, "Did you cough up blood these days when I was unconscious?"

"You're pretty good this time, you didn't cough up blood." Chun Xing wrung out the facecloth and handed it to Jiang Shishi.

After receiving the handkerchief, Jiang Shishi washed her face, feeling more and more that the situation was wrong, "After I passed out that day, what rumors did there exist in Beijing and the harem?"

Chun Xing shook her head, "At that time, many concubines and female relatives fainted from fright, so even if you fainted, no one said anything, only when the side concubine Tang came to see you, she said a few more words."

The side concubine of the Tang Dynasty is just that virtuous, as long as others don't find it strange, Jiang Shishi can rest assured.

Immediately afterwards, Chun Xing took porridge and sat by the bed, feeding Jiang Shishi the porridge.

While drinking porridge, Jiang Shishi learned about the situation on the emperor's birthday, "The emperor must be very angry that day when the wolf dogs made trouble in the Palace of Preserving Harmony, right?"

"It's not just angry, it's just Longyan's fury!" Chun Xing fed Jiang Shishi porridge and said, "The wolf dog was given by the sixth prince, who was ordered by the emperor to be imprisoned in the clan mansion on the spot, and the emperor also withdrew it." Lost the seal of His Highness the Crown Prince in charge of the Ministry of Rites."

"In addition, the emperor ordered the Ministry of Rites to be severely punished. His Royal Highness said that the Ministry of Rites was in charge of him, and he was the only one responsible for what happened. Therefore, the emperor did not punish the Ministry of Rites anymore. He just scolded His Royal Highness in public, saying that he would investigate the matter. , if this matter is related to His Highness, His Highness must be severely punished!"

Jiang Shishi: "."

She finally knew why this spoiler punishment was not serious.

Although she helped the prince avoid disaster, the prince gave the gift to the emperor safely.

However, the general direction of the book has not been changed.

Because the prince in the book presented a broken piece of jade ornament with the character of longevity, Emperor Jianyuan thought that the prince was cursing him (broken life) for a short life, and wanted to ascend the throne as emperor as soon as possible and replace him.

Therefore, in a fit of anger, he withdrew the seal of the Ministry of Rites and withdrew the prince's right to be in charge of the Ministry of Rites.

Now, although the prince managed to avoid disaster, he was still taken back by the emperor to the Ministry of Rites because of the wolf dog sent by the sixth prince.

After all, the Wanshou Festival was organized by the crown prince alone. If something happened, the crown prince was the most responsible. Emperor Jianyuan inevitably suspected that the crown prince and the sixth prince sent him a mad dog and wanted his life!
And the reason why the prince took this matter alone is that he probably knows that the people behind the scenes are targeting him, and he doesn't want to hurt the Ministry of Rites.

Jiang Shishi: "What about the wolfhound, how many people were bitten that day?"

Chun Xing: "That wolf dog bitten six guests that day. Fortunately, the guards arrived in time and beat the wolf dog to death on the spot. Otherwise, I don't know how many more guests will be bitten."

"In addition, the emperor sent an imperial doctor to treat the guests who were bitten, and also allocated money from the household department to appease the guests."

Jiang Shishi: "Where is His Royal Highness, was he bitten?"

Chun Xing: "In the past few days, there has been no news that His Highness the Crown Prince was bitten in the East Palace. Presumably, His Highness the Crown Prince was not injured."

When Jiang Shishi thought of the prince rushing forward to protect her and being bitten by the wolf dog, how could she not get hurt?

Speaking of which, there is obviously no plot of wolf dogs making a scene on the Wanshou Festival in the book, so why did such a thing happen on the Wanshou Festival that day?

Is it another butterfly effect?
Chun Xing: "By the way, my lord, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not returned to the East Palace recently. I heard that there is something wrong with the wolf dog. His Highness the Crown Prince has been investigating and trying to get the Sixth Prince out of the Clan Mansion."

"Your Highness and the Sixth Prince's brother have a very good relationship, but recently there are rumors in the palace that His Royal Highness is jealous of the Sixth Prince's talent, afraid that the Sixth Prince will replace him in charge of the Ministry of Rites, and deliberately drives the wolf dog sent by the Sixth Prince crazy, trying to frame him. "Six princes"

Jiang Shishi: "." The rumors in the palace must be even more crazy in Beijing.

It seems that someone framed the prince not only to provoke the relationship between the prince and the emperor, but also to provoke the relationship between the prince and the sixth prince.

It's enough to provoke once, but if you provoke too much, no matter how strong the relationship is, it will be shaken.

What's more, how can the royal family have strong feelings?
As for those news, it is natural that the people behind the scenes deliberately let people spread rumors to create public opinion.

It's no wonder that Emperor Jianyuan in the book always suspected that the prince wanted to usurp the throne, and even the sixth prince broke with the prince in the end.

In the next few days, the Crown Prince was nowhere to be seen in the East Palace, because the Crown Prince was too busy to return to the East Palace.

It was not until one night in mid-September that the prince returned to the East Palace by chariot.

As soon as he returned to the East Palace, he didn't go anywhere, but went straight to Shiyue Pavilion.

When they got there, Pei Xuanling didn't ask anyone to sing the newspaper.

As soon as he entered the hall, he saw a woman sitting in the hall looking at the ledger.

Seeing the prince came, Jiang Shishi got up and saluted, "His Royal Highness, rest assured."

Pei Xuanling stepped forward, supported the woman, and looked at her with burning eyes.

Seeing that she looked good, he let go of her hand and sat down at the coffee table in the hall.

Jiang Shishi poured a cup of tea for the crown prince. Seeing that the crown prince was unshaven, he must have been too busy these days to take care of himself.

For a handsome person, no matter how unshaven his beard is, it will not affect his appearance in the slightest.

In addition, the prince has a dignified temperament, and the royal majesty exuded from the inside out, and he has a little stubble, but he has a masculine charm.

When serving tea, Jiang Shishi asked, "Has Your Highness eaten?"

"I've used it outside alone."

Since the crown prince had finished eating, Jiang Shishi didn't let Chun Xing go to the imperial dining room, but turned to stare at the crown prince, looking him up and down.

Pei Xuanling was originally sitting upright, even if he caught a glimpse of the woman staring at him from the corner of his eye, he still didn't change his face and remained motionless.

Until the woman stared at him for a long time, he finally turned his head and looked back at the woman, "Why do you keep staring at Gu?"

"Your Highness, on the Longevity Day. Are you injured?" Jiang Shishi stared at the man's chest.

Pei Xuanling raised his left hand, and showed the back of his hand to the woman, "That wolfhound is extremely fierce. Even though he practiced martial arts alone since childhood, the back of his hand was still scratched by that beast."

Looking at the back of the man's hand, Jiang Shishi saw scratches on the back of the prince's hand.

Fortunately, the wound was not deep, and had already formed a black and red blood scab.

Jiang Shishi: "Aside from scratching you, did the wolf dog bite you?"

Pei Xuanling shook his head, "That's not true."

"But that day when you stood in front of me, I saw with my own eyes that wolfhound madly jumping into your arms and biting." Jiang Shishi looked at the man's chest with some doubts, "Are you really not bitten?"

"If you don't say it, you don't have it. How many times do you want to say it alone?" The man's tone was impatient, and his voice increased several times.

Seeing that the prince was getting impatient, Jiang Shishi didn't ask any more questions.

However, she didn't speak any more after that.

For a while, the hall became silent.

In the air, there was also an atmosphere called embarrassment surrounding Jiang Shishi and the prince.

The servants in the room all lowered their heads, looking at their noses and hearts, not daring to make a sound.

In the end, as a man, Pei Xuanling took the initiative to break the silence, "Why don't you talk?"

Jiang Shishi: "His Royal Highness is unhappy, so I dare not say more, lest I say something wrong and make His Highness unhappy again."

Hearing the innocence and grievance in the woman's words, Pei Xuanling chuckled, "Okay, let's not talk about it, I haven't had a good rest in the past few days, so let's settle down earlier today."

After finishing speaking, the man stepped into the inner room.

Jiang Shishi followed behind the man slowly, and did not wait for the prince to change and wash as usual.

Instead, he called the maid and Chun Xing, who were close to the prince, to come in and wait on her and the prince to wash up.

Seeing this, Pei Xuanling raised his thick eyebrows slightly.

I just found out today that the soft, glutinous and cute meat buns are still a prank.

After the two of them washed up, Pei Xuanling went to bed and rested first.

Jiang Shishi sat in front of the dressing table, removed her hair and hair accessories, then turned off the lamp, and lay down beside the man.

As a result, she turned off the lamp, and her body was spinning around for a while, and the man rolled over and pressed her under her body.

However, there is still a large distance between the men propped up on the brocade quilt.

With the palms of both hands resting on the woman's sides, Pei Xuanling quietly asked, "Still angry?"

"I don't dare to be angry with you."

"Then why don't you wait for Gu to change his clothes and wash up?"

"The concubine is just afraid of not serving well and making His Highness angry."

Pei Xuanling: "." After all, it's this set of rhetoric, but it's just an act of anger.

"Tell me, what do you want?" The man finally softened his voice, but his tone was still firm.

Seeing the prince's voice softened, Jiang Shishi pursed her lips, and said rather aggrieved: "I don't want to do anything, I just want to care about you, is there something wrong with that?"

"Gu knows your intentions, but Gu is not hurt, and you keep asking."

"But the more you scare me with your majesty, the more I suspect that you were bitten by a wolf dog."

"Do you suspect that Gu has lied to you?"

"I don't dare." Jiang Shishi replied glutinously: "Last time on the Longevity Festival, if His Highness hadn't stepped forward, I might have been bitten by a wolf dog, and I saw the wolf dog biting you with my own eyes. But you said you were not bitten by a wolf dog."

"The wolfhound did bite Gu, but it just tore Gu's clothes."

"But I saw with my own eyes that after the guests were bitten by a wolf dog, they were dripping with blood on the spot. They were also wearing clothes, so they were injured?"

"So, you assume that Gu Ye was bitten?" Pei Xuanling was so patient that he explained it to the woman several times.

I thought the meat buns were easy to fool, but who knows that she admits to death today, and to be honest, she is really a pestering little thing.

"Your Highness is the heir apparent, so it's impossible to lie to me as a woman. However, His Highness rescued me that day. If I don't confirm with my own eyes that His Highness is not injured, I will feel uneasy."

"How do you want to prove it?"

"Unless His Highness took off his clothes and let this concubine take a look. If His Highness really didn't have any wounds bitten by a wolf dog, I would be relieved."
