Emperor concubine and phoenix

Chapter 440
Upon hearing this, Feng Li stopped all thoughts of asking.

The second prince suffered such serious injuries in the womb of the crown prince, and at first glance, the injuries were not ordinary sword wounds, but clearly the injuries caused by torture.

Looking at the entire Tangling Empire, not many people dared to torture the Second Prince.

And in the current situation, one doesn't need to guess who did it to the second prince, but Feng Li couldn't help but wonder, isn't His Royal Highness the Prince's relationship with the second prince very good?
how come……

What did the second prince do?
The following offense, offended His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?

However, even if the second prince was really at fault, Her Majesty should punish her, or the prince could punish him with a small punishment and give him a big reprimand. If such a lynching move spreads out, the whole palace will probably be boiled.

But Feng Li didn't dare to think deeply.

The prince ordered Feng Ying to send him over late at night instead of summoning the imperial physician, which meant that the prince didn't want to disturb other people, or rather, he didn't want others to know that what he needed to do was to heal the second prince's injuries, and then kept silent about the matter.

Feng Li withdrew her mind and concentrated on treating the second prince's injury.

And Jun Lingxiao, who was leaning sideways on the brocade couch, put one hand on his temple, his brows were still in deep thought.

His eyes fell on the blood-stained couch opposite him, and there was also some on the ground, and he thought of the last sentence Ling Fan said in his ears: Brother Huang, I can't take it anymore.

No resentment, no dissatisfaction.

There is only a little taste of showing weakness and begging for mercy.

Jun Lingxiao's eyes lowered slightly, and they fell on his well-articulated hands.

Although he has always been strict with his younger brothers, this is the first time that he has actually taken action.

But even with such a ruthless hand, Jun Lingxiao still didn't get the answer he wanted. Ling Fan's mouth was like a clam shell, and he couldn't pry it open.

For the first time, Jun Lingxiao felt that he was stupid, no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't figure out what secret was hidden in Ling Fan's heart, which was so hard for him to tell.

Would you rather be punished heavily than reveal a thing or two?
Turn your head to look in the direction of the inner hall.

With such a serious injury, it probably took a lot of effort to deal with it. Jun Lingxiao got up, explained some things to Fengli, and ordered Fengying to stay in the palace, then turned and walked out.

The night is as black as ink, and everything is silent.

Jun Lingxiao arrived at Yuheng Palace alone in the dark. At this time, except for the guards and palace people on duty, most of them had already fallen asleep.

When Ji Huangyu was woken up from her sleep, she was not in a good mood at first, but when she heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had arrived, she was suddenly surprised.

"What is His Royal Highness doing here at this hour?"

The palace man shook his head: "His Royal Highness didn't say anything."

When the inner servant on duty at night turned on the lamp, the hall was lit up instantly, Ji Huangyu got up, took the outer robe and put it on, and walked towards the outer hall: "Let the prince come in."

The palace man answered yes, and turned to answer.

Not long after, Jun Lingxiao, dressed in a neat robe, walked in. He was tall and tall, with a dignified bearing, as calm and steady as Yuan Ting and Yue Zhi. He simply stood there, and the whole body poured out endless words of the emperor. Qi.

"Uncle Ji." Jun Lingxiao bowed slightly, "Please forgive me for disturbing you late at night."

Ji Huangyu shook her head to express that she didn't care, she was woken up in the midst of her dream, not to mention whether she was in a good mood, but still a little sleepy.

But he also knew that if Jun Lingxiao had nothing important to do, he would never be bored running to Yuheng Palace late at night.

Not to mention Jun Lingxiao, he is his own son, who has been to the Tai's uterus many times over the years, but seldom comes to Yuheng Palace.

Adult men are independent individuals after they grow up, and it is impossible for them to be like their daughter's family, and it is even more impossible to act like a baby. On the contrary, there are more topics to talk about between brothers.

Reaching out her hand to signal Jun Lingxiao to sit down, Ji Huangyu leaned on the couch: "What about Ling Fan?"

Jun Lingxiao nodded, no emotion could be seen on his stern face: "There is indeed something related to Ling Fan. After thinking about it, I think that only Uncle Ji may be able to solve my doubts."

Ji Huangyu raised her eyebrows: "Let's listen."

"I beat Ling Fan tonight." Jun Lingxiao said bluntly, "It was so hard that he has passed out now."

Ji Huangyu was slightly startled, all drowsiness disappeared in an instant, and she sat up straight subconsciously: "What did Ling Fan do?"

Being able to force Ling Xiao to play such a heavy hand, Ji Huangyu never thought it would be a trivial matter.

What kind of temperament Ling Xiao has, they have seen it all these years, Ji Huangyu will not think that he is deliberately disadvantageous to Ling Fan, and if he really wants to disadvantage Ling Fan, Ling Xiao will not come to him in the middle of the night.

The palace people brought tea over.

Jun Lingxiao held the teacup, sipped the tea silently, and turned away all the palace people in the palace.

"The case of the sudden death of the Crown Princess in the Xuanyin Palace has never been resolved, and the clues were suppressed by me."

Ji Huangyu's expression changed slightly, what is the secret behind the sudden death of the crown princess?
"Is it related to Ling Fan?"

Jun Lingxiao nodded: "The sudden death of the three princesses was all due to him."

Ji Huangyu stood up abruptly, her expression suddenly changed: "Impossible!"

Jun Lingxiao narrowed his eyes, and his eyes fell on the teacup in his hand: "Uncle Ji thinks I will wrong him?"

Ji Huangyu didn't speak, but felt shocked in her heart.

He didn't think the crown prince would wrong Ling Fan, but Ling Fan had no reason to do so.

He has no ambition for the throne, and he is sincerely convinced by the crown prince. He has never had any rebellious thoughts. Why did he kill the crown prince?

Moreover, she was also the third princess, which directly caused Ling Xiao to bear the reputation of being a wife.

What does it do for him?
"That's why I came to bother Uncle Ji." Jun Lingxiao's tone was steady, and his indifferent voice could not hear any emotional fluctuations, "I knew it was him, so I suppressed the clue. Just three days ago, Ling Fan also said it himself. Admit it was him."

Paused, "However, he is unwilling to tell the reason."

Ji Huangyu sat down in a daze, "Why?"

Jun Lingxiao nodded: "That's why I came to ask Uncle Ji for advice."

Ji Huangyu was silent for a long time before recovering her voice: "Ling Fan admitted?"

"Admitted." Jun Lingxiao's tone was light, "He originally wanted to go to the Xuanyin Palace for trial, but I didn't agree. The three princesses and concubines all come from powerful families in the imperial capital. If the truth is known, the consequences will be very serious."

It is serious.

Ji Huangyu thought, just to appease the families of the three concubines who died violently, and give them a reasonable explanation, would be enough to make Jiu Rao feel devastated.

After the prosperity of the Tangling Empire for so many years, the reputation of Her Majesty the Empress Sheng Tianzi has spread all over the world. Once such things as the prince's murder of the Crown Princess are exposed, one can imagine how much impact it will have on the reputation of the royal family.

The son of Shengtian must give the best explanation and appeasement to the whole world, to the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, and to the victim's family, as well as the due compensation.

In addition, Jun Lingfan must also pay the price of his life for his cruel behavior.

　good night.
