Chapter 252 The Son of Destiny
The prince did not intend to hide it from them, and asked calmly: "Do you still remember that the queen once pointed out a concubine to me?"

"Remember, Concubine Su's niece Su Manzhen. On the day you were carried into the East Palace, you were almost beaten by Cheng Hanbai and us. Later, for some reason, I heard that she died suddenly in the palace." Prince Chu said with a sidelong glance at the prince.Su Manzhen was also a noblewoman who had often been in and out of the palace since she was a child. Although she had not spoken to her much, she was not unimpressed.

"Yes. She died suddenly on the day I was under house arrest in Lingxiaotai, so not many people paid attention to her. In fact, her death hid a huge conspiracy." The prince told Haitang what he saw that day. , explained it in detail, and then said: "The queen found an excuse to hide this matter, instead of taking the opportunity to attack Dong Palace or Concubine Su. Naturally, she knew that this matter had something to do with her."

"Su Manzhen said 'the Taoist concubine's child' before she died, did she mean that there was something wrong with the Taoist concubine's child? This is a big deal." Zhao Muzhe quickly asked: "Then what was found on November [-]? The Taoist concubine's adultery?"

Yan Shiyi smiled and said: "It's because we were lucky, otherwise there would be no clues. That day when I came back from Dongzhuang, I went to Queen Wu's mother's house and Wu Tongzheng's residence to investigate. As you know, what Dongchang's secret agents are best at is Listening to the corner, I happened to hear a key sentence that night.

Mrs. Wu was scolding the General Secretary for being useless and could not find a domestic slave named 'Wu Di'.It should be that after Wu Di was broken into the palace, the queen wanted to kill him and silence him.After getting a name, I thought this Wu Di was the person we were looking for, and the next day I went to Wujiazhuangzi where he escaped.

Do you think it's a coincidence?It turned out that Qi Lefeng, the biological brother of the concubine Dao, was also under house arrest in this Zhuangzi by the Wu family. Because he was taken advantage of by the queen, his sister ended up leaving her son behind and her own future was uncertain. Naturally, he was filled with resentment.Somehow, I wore a pair of pants with my sister's lover Wu Di.

The two of them may have had the idea of ​​being dark under the lamp, trying to avoid the limelight before running away, or they wanted to wait until the Taoist concubine's child fell to the ground before running away with her, so Wu Di didn't escape at all, and hid in the Tu Tu Temple outside Zhuangzi. .I saw that Qi Lefeng looked wrong, so I followed him who was delivering the food, grabbed Wu Di, and now locks him in the dungeon of the Prince's Mansion. "

"It's really wonderful! Thank you for going there." Zhao Muche praised, and then asked: "Have you been tried?"

Yan Shiyi sneered: "That's a coward who was strong on the outside but on the inside. I don't know how beastly he was before he dared to kill people. The torture tools were all used as soon as they were pulled out. We guessed right, the Taoist concubine's child is his." I captured two people, and Qi Lefeng was also imprisoned in the dungeon to prevent him from being tampered with."

"After such a big incident, the queen is still not in chaos? Why didn't anyone in the palace see anything unusual about her? Then her skills are extraordinary." The prince was still a little surprised and said: "Didn't you arrest the wrong person?"

Yan Shiyi glared at the prince: "Both of them have verified their identities, and their confessions have been signed and stamped. Is this wrong? I guess it's probably because the Wu family wants to find out on their own first, and they haven't dared to tell the queen the truth yet. "

The prince called Ling Xue in and explained: "Go and tell them that if they cooperate, they can hope to reunite as a family and fly away. You watch carefully and don't let them die!" Ling Xue responded and went out.

Sun Yanxi said: "It's not enough for us to have Wu Di alone. We have the Queen and Lu Ping here. Once Wu Di retorts, the whole matter is likely to be suppressed by them, and eventually it will be ignored and covered up. If there is still an emperor, we can't do it anymore." As long as there is evidence of heirs, Brother Tang, is there any solution at the Imperial Hospital?"

Tang Yu shook his head and said: "The emperor's pulse case is managed separately, including the court sentence, only three people who have taken the emperor's pulse can look through it. Every time they look through it, there are inner guards. If you really want to look for it, you have to spend money. some effort."

"There is no need to take risks. Let's stand still and let the Queen and Lu Ping move first. Only if they move can we find a flaw. Now that the Taoist concubine has given birth to a boy, and my father's health is deteriorating, it's time for them to take action. It won't be long." The prince was less impulsive than before and seemed more confident.

Back in the East Palace, it was already sunset, and the Crown Princess was preparing to have dinner served.Seeing the prince come in, Haitang hurriedly went over to change his clothes. With her big belly, it was difficult for her to stand on tiptoes. Xie Ruitan sat down with a smile and asked her to unbutton her shoulders.

Haitang smiled while unbuttoning: "You have gained a new brother today." "He is not my brother. His biological father is currently in the dungeon of the Prince's Mansion." The Prince sneered, and asked what Yan Shiyi was doing. The story of catching Wu Di was briefly told.

Haitang nodded and praised: "Yan Shiyi is good at skills and smart, and he is really efficient in doing things!"

The prince took off his coat and put on a pair of regular clothes. He turned around and said seriously: "You can't praise other men in the future. If you want to praise me, you can only praise me."

Haitang blinked in confusion.

"For example, you can praise me for my good character and for making a pretty good friend." After the prince finished speaking, he walked out with a smile, leaving Haitang in the inner hall with a silly smile.

After dinner, the two took a walk in the yard.Hearing the faint sound of silk and bamboo, Haitang explained: "I heard that the emperor has two more female Taoist friends. Although they are not concubines or concubines, they are deeply favored by the emperor."

Xie Ruitang helped Haitang walk to the inner hall and said: "Father, you are violating your body... Today Tang Yu came up with an idea to ask the Taiyuan Hospital to come forward and use the hands of fake Taoist priests to offer your pills as elixirs." Give it to Father, record the prescription in the pulse file, and it will be considered a clear path. Tomorrow Tang Yu will come over to ask for peace of mind, and we will discuss the details with you."

Haitang nodded and solemnly praised: "His Royal Highness the Prince is wise, powerful, and has extraordinary weapons. Only someone can offer such a wonderful method. It is indeed much more appropriate than my previous method."

Xie Ruitang was stunned for a moment, then he remembered what he said in the palace and couldn't help laughing: "Not bad, not bad, a child can be taught!" Haitang looked up at Xie Ruitang's cheerful eyebrows, and her heart was as bright as a bright cloud.

In the Wuying Hall, the incense burner in the middle of the main hall was filled with a touch of spring fragrance. The emperor, who had taken the elixir, felt full of energy and was flirting with two little Taoist nuns.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty for adding another dragon child! This child is not ordinary. He is the son of destiny who was cultivated by you as a Taoist. This is exactly what he is: only guarded by God, with transcendent virtue..." A little Taoist nun leaned over the emperor. Nonsense according to the meaning of the queen.

"Oh, is there really such a saying? So, my youngest son is the one with moral principles and virtues?" The emperor hesitated and said, "But I have already established a prince twice. If I abolish the prince again, I am afraid that the foundation of the country will be shaken. ah!"

Another Taoist nun hurriedly smiled and said: "What's the difficulty? Your Majesty, why not ask the imperial master to do it? Ask the immortal master to ask, and then you will know that the prince is more in line with God's will. Who dares not to listen to the immortal master's words?" She said The national preceptor is Taoist Master Zixu who makes elixirs for the emperor. The emperor has already named him the national preceptor.

The emperor's medicine began to take effect, and his blood suddenly surged, and he felt as energetic as a 20-year-old boy.

Don't pay any attention to the crown prince, just rub the two little nuns in your arms and start tossing.
