With a delicate smile, the rough guy bows down for the beauty

Chapter 307 Preserving the face of the royal family
"Grandpa Huang, what's the matter with you? Grandpa Huang, Xiao'er chanted scriptures and prayed with Grandmother Huang every day. Why is your illness still not cured?"

After all, it was a child who was less than ten years old, sobbing and choking.

"There are assassins, they captured the imperial grandmother, only Xiao'er escaped, you send someone to rescue the imperial grandmother, my father is gone, I'm so scared, woo woo woo."

A child as cute as a porcelain doll, with brows and eyes flushed from crying, like a deer that has lost its shelter, it is pitiful and distressing.

Although King Su Chen taught his grandson to do many things, he never told him why he did it. He only said that if he was steady and hardworking, he would be liked by more people.

So after taking off the pretense of youthful maturity, the grandson is actually just a simple child.

It was also because he knew that the child had not been raised by Prince Chen, that Emperor Jianning really loved him from the bottom of his heart.

At this moment, he propped himself up and wiped away the tears from his grandson's face.

"Hao'er is not afraid, with Grandpa Huang here, no one will hurt you. Your father has already gone to catch the bad guys and save your grandma. Grandpa is not feeling well. He has taken medicine and needs to lie down and rest. Xiao'er listens to the wet nurse. , go to rest too, okay?"

Taisun grabbed Emperor Jianning's arm and hesitated.

Emperor Jianning smiled again and comforted him.

"It's good for Grandpa Huang to sleep, can I take you to the Royal Garden tomorrow?"

At this time, Wang Lianyi immediately stepped forward to coax her.

"His Royal Highness, the emperor's dragon body is ill, and he needs to rest well so that he can recover quickly."

Hearing this, Taisun held back his tears and stood up, and kowtowed respectfully to Emperor Jianning.

"The grandpa has a good rest, and the grandson will leave."

Emperor Jianning smiled and waved his hands, and after seeing the grandson's figure leave the palace gate, he coughed violently again, until his complexion turned pale.

But even so, Emperor Jianning still met King Chen firmly.

When the person was brought, he was already in a state of embarrassment.

His body was covered with blood, his eyes were red, his bun was loose and crooked, and his hair was messy. He didn't look like a gentle and elegant young man at all.

Not only Emperor Jianning, but several ministers present couldn't help frowning when they saw him like this.

Shen Qianwei was also among them, holding a knife and standing beside Emperor Jianning's bed, temporarily acting as the imperial guard.

So as soon as King Chen entered the palace, apart from Emperor Jianning who was on the couch, he was the first to see Shen Qianwei.

He didn't kneel down to salute, but after scanning the hall, he sneered.

"Father, you really found yourself a good and loyal dog."

When he said this, his eyes were fixed on Shen Qianwei, gloomy and distorted.

He naturally hated it, after all, without Shen Qianwei's sudden appearance, he shouldn't have lost so quickly.

Emperor Jianning obviously knew what he was thinking, his eyes were as dark as water.

"Do you really think that I only made this move? Do you think that Wu Peng of Bianjingwei really obeys you? He used to be my personal guard, and would he betray me because of an in-law? ?!"

Wu Peng's daughter-in-law is the wife of Xu Yuanhong, the eldest son of the Duke of Ruiguo's mansion, and also the cousin of Prince Chen.

The Prince Chen's face was cold and hard, "Father has a clever plan. He set up a trap and only waited for his son to jump. Why bother to ridicule now."

"Why did I test you, don't you understand?" Emperor Jianning trembled a little, "If you don't have the heart to rebel, why did you do this!"

"Isn't the father wanting to kill his children first? Isn't the father wanting to avenge the seventh and third?!" King Chen yelled angrily, with a hideous expression on his face.

"I never thought that way!" Emperor Jianning retorted sharply.

Emotional to the breaking point.

"I, I already lost two sons, how could I be willing to lose another one? Ask yourself, why did I investigate you, because of corruption, because of the salt tax! I know all the other things, why did I mention half a word!"

Seeing Emperor Jianning's furious appearance, Prince Chen was not moved at all, but calmed down and lowered his eyes.

"The matter has come to this point, if you want to kill or cut, let the father dispose of it, but ask the father to spare Xiao'er's life."

In his heart, he has long been separated from Emperor Jianning.

It was because he broke his arm due to a natural disaster, and since then he has no chance of the throne that he once had at his fingertips.

It was also because he mutilated his brothers and feet, he was guilty and afraid, and felt that Emperor Jianning would bring disaster on him at any time.

It is because his pursuit of power has gone crazy, even if he uses his son as a cover to train him to become his own puppet.

"Of course I won't hurt Xiao'er, the child is innocent." Emperor Jianning also calmed down, and took another deep look at him.

Chen Wang was expressionless, but bowed, "Thank you, Father, for your kindness."

At this moment, he seemed to have returned to his former obedient appearance.

"Back off." Emperor Jianning waved his hand.

He is really struggling to maintain his health, so I can't say more.

Wang Lianyi immediately beckoned and asked the guards to take him down.

The hall became quiet, and Emperor Jianning ordered all the servants to leave the hall, leaving behind only a few confidant ministers.

As for what was said, outsiders have no way of knowing.

But half an hour later, someone came to report that when King Chen hit the pillar and died, Emperor Jianning was so angry that he vomited blood and passed out.

He never thought of killing Prince Chen.

After all, Prince Chen was his eldest son, the son he valued the most, but he didn't expect that Prince Chen didn't want to live.

There was chaos inside and outside the palace, Shen Qianwei was busy cleaning up the mess, and couldn't get away to pick up Su Junning.

However, Zheng Han was sent to meet him and sent him back to the Su residence.

Su Yi is also fine, and has already devoted himself to the arrangement of government affairs, and even brought in Su Yuzheng and Su Yu'an to help.

This is an opportunity to practice.

That is to say, Cui Shi and the pregnant Fang Shi suffered a lot. Cui Shi was injured, while Fang Shi was frightened and had some fetal gas, but there was no serious problem, just rest.

For the next five or six days, Shen Qianwei was so busy that no one was seen.

Until the court announced the reasons for the riots in the city.

It is about the rebellion of the king of Jin, Shen Qianwei, the general Dingyuan who was rushed back to the capital in time to report the salt tax case, quelled the rebellion, while the queen and the king Chen were seriously injured and died in order to protect the emperor's grandson.

And this involved a group of courtiers in the court who had ties to the King of Jin, who were killed and dismissed from their posts.

As for why he didn't say that it was Prince Chen who conspired against him, in the end, it was because Emperor Jianning wanted to keep his grandson and the royal family's face.

If the grandson wants to ascend the throne smoothly, he can't have such a tainted biological father, but the royal family.

First, the seven princes colluded with King Yu, and then King Jin set up an ambush to kill the king. These things happened one after another, which has already made the people's hearts fluctuate.

By the time this turmoil subsides completely, it will be almost the end of October.

Shen Qianwei has made great contributions and gained the trust of Emperor Jianning more and more. Now he is regarded as an important minister in the court, holding the military power of [-] troops in the military camp in the suburbs of Beijing, and he is an upstart.

It is also because of the prosperity of the Shen family that many people who used to think that the daughters of the Su family were low-marriages now envy Su Junning's good eyesight in picking out husbands and sons-in-law.
