Rebirth of the Splendid Phoenix

Chapter 56 The Princess

"My lady, my lady is not well, something happened."

The queen was talking to Xie Jinhua when a court lady rushed in.

The empress frowned, and before she said anything, the female officer beside her sternly said, "What's wrong with your empress, don't we people in Qifeng Palace can't even say a word?"

"Empress, please forgive me. This servant has no intentions. It's the king of the little county. Something happened to the king of the little county."

The maid's body trembled, and her voice sounded like weeping.

The queen couldn't help standing up, she had only one thought in her mind, it was broken.

Xie Jinhua couldn't help but widen her eyes. After hearing the maid's words, she finally thought of a thing that she had forgotten too long ago. The son of Princess Yuan'an in her previous life was this The elder princess and her son-in-law died in the palace when they returned to Beijing to report on their duties, or they died near the queen's bedroom.

Because of this, the empress and her eldest prince, Qin Lang, were under the suspicion of the emperor, and the eldest princess even retaliated crazily. King Qi was able to ascend to the throne later, which somewhat benefited from the matter with the prince of the small county.

For a moment, her heart felt a little cold. The death of the little county king in the previous life was a bloodbath, and now she is in the queen's palace.
Just afraid that being in a daze would not be able to solve any problems, Xie Jinhua walked directly to the side of the maid.

"Whether a person is dead or alive, where exactly did it happen! Make it clear."

The queen hadn't recovered yet, Xie Jinhua asked directly, this is not the time to avoid it.

These are the two most important points.

I just hope people aren't dead.

The maid down there was scared out of her wits long ago, no matter who asked the question, she just opened her mouth and answered, "It was in the lotus pond near the bedroom. I, I was rescued. It was rescued by Miss Xie's attendant."

The queen who was a little panicked when she heard that the person was not dead, her eyes lit up, and she felt like she was in a desperate situation: "Immediately go to the imperial hospital and call the on-duty imperial physician to treat him with all my strength. Where is the person, take me there .”

While talking, the empress hurriedly got down from the phoenix seat, not caring about her manners.

Xie Jinhua also followed.

The urgency in her heart is two points more than before, and Qin Zheng is actually involved. She only hopes that the little county king can really be saved.

Otherwise, the person who saved lives would not be appreciated by anyone, and instead would cause a whole body of blood.

-

The pale-faced child was lying on the bed, and the brocade quilt under him was wet with water stains all over his body, but no one cared about it.

What everyone cared about was his faint breathing. Everyone knew that if the child really stopped breathing, everyone present would not be able to escape the emperor's thunderous wrath.

Everyone in Daqing knew the emperor's apology and love for the eldest princess, and the only son that the eldest princess had acquired with great difficulty, naturally became more precious.

"Doctor Wang, how is the little county king?"

The queen looked at the imperial doctor who shook his head after taking the pulse, hurried forward and asked.

"Empress, the old minister is incompetent. Although the little county king was rescued, he was submerged in too much water and stayed underwater for too long. I'm afraid it's not good."

The imperial physician's words made the Queen's heart sink to the bottom.

"Rescue him no matter what, Imperial Physician Wang, I order you! Be sure to revive him!"

The queen's nails were about to dig into the flesh, and she gritted her teeth.

"Your Majesty, this, this is considered to be rescued, I am afraid that the little county king will also hurt his head."

"I don't care about anything else, I only look at the result."

The queen's appearance made Wang Taiyi's heart tremble, and he dared not say more.

He had no doubt that if the little county king couldn't be saved, he would have to be buried with him first.

"Who was the first to discover Xiaojun Wang?"

The queen turned around, the unkind eyes and tone made Xie Jinhua's heart sink.

For the queen, who did not know who pushed the little princess into the water, and wanted to get herself out quickly, the best way was to directly blame the matter on another person.

Is there anyone more suitable than Qin Zheng, who is not a queen, but who was the first to discover the king of Xiaojun?
The bottom of my heart was cold, but Xie Jinhua had a smile on his face, and held Qin Zheng's wrist tightly, not letting him go out: "Empress Empress, now is not the time to investigate who saved the little county king, the most important thing is Hurry up and send someone to notify His Majesty and the Eldest Princess, so that there is a specific regulation. Ah Zheng happened to report the incident face to face, so as to help find out the truth about the Xiaojun King's falling into the water as soon as possible, as well as the imperial physicians. Recruited into the palace, Imperial Physician Wang has nothing to do, it doesn’t mean that other imperial physicians have nothing to do, the king of Xiaojun is still alive, which is the best news, everything must be considered in the long term, if someone harms the empress, as long as you put your heart into it, you will definitely be able to find out.”

Xie Jinhua deliberately emphasized the word "saved", and she specifically mentioned the emperor and the eldest princess to remind the queen not to treat everyone as fools. I want to ask Qin Zheng.

The queen was really anxious to convict Qin Zheng of unwarranted charges, but she seemed guilty.

Qin Zheng, a person who has nothing to do with the empress's palace, is easy to inquire about the crime, but it is not easy to make excuses for harming others. If the empress really wants to get rid of the crime, it is better to find it in the palace.

The queen frowned and looked at Xie Jinhua who had said such words, thinking of her calm reaction when she was flustered just now, compared with what she thought the other party was just courageous, reckless and ignorant, her eyes darkened.

At this moment, the queen realized that she had misjudged the person, or that she had been deceived by someone's disguise. She looked deeply at Xie Jinhua, and Xie Jinhua looked at her unmoved, her eyes were undisguised persist in.

She blocked Qin Zheng behind her, full of protection.

The queen withdrew her gaze from staring at Xie Jinhua: "Come here, send someone to inform His Majesty and the Eldest Princess, saying that I can't get away now, and I can't go to plead guilty in person."

"You're right, everything still needs to be considered in the long term. No matter who pushed the little county king into the lotus pond in order to frame me, as long as I find out, I will definitely not let you down!"

-

Princess Yuan'an was chatting with the emperor about family affairs. Compared with the sons who had grown up for many years and had begun to covet the seats under him, the emperor had always loved the first daughter: "It has been so long since When I came back, my father thought you had forgotten my father, you and your son-in-law rarely return to Beijing, this time you must stay for a few more days."

In his words, the emperor complained that the eldest princess did not return to the capital for a long time.

"Father, my daughter also misses you very much. It's just that the son-in-law and my daughter stayed in Jingzhou. How can I come back without authorization? Gan'er was young at the time, and my daughter could only restrain her anxiety. After waiting for two years, it's not that Gan'er is a little older." Sooner or later, the son-in-law will immediately hand over the booklet to the royal father and return to Beijing?"

Princess Yuan'an is 40 years old this year, but she is well maintained. She looks like a beautiful woman in her thirties, holding the emperor's arm and acting like a spoiled child. She doesn't look weird.

"You, these years, these rules are more important than anything else. If you want to come back, you will come back, and you still have so many scruples. Your temperament was not like this before. Did the concubine bully you?"

The emperor seemed to be joking, but the son-in-law who had been waiting beside him quickly knelt down: "Your Majesty, I have always respected Her Majesty the Princess, and I dare not let you down."

It was just a word of dare not, and a word of respect, which dimmed the color in the eyes of the eldest princess for a moment.

No one would use the word "dare" or "respect" to the one they love.

The emperor glanced at the son-in-law, his eyes were a little worried, he didn't let him get up, but turned to look at Princess Yuan'an, smiling like an ordinary father: "My little grandson, I heard that he has learned the thousand-character script, master They all praised him for being smart, but I wanted to meet him well, speaking of which, I haven't met him until now, but I only gave him a name, but I treated him badly."

"Father is able to personally give Gan'er a name, which is the greatest favor and value, and there is no wrong treatment."

The eldest princess smiled, rolled her eyes, and glanced at the son-in-law who was kneeling beside her like a wooden stake, and was about to say something nice, when the head servant came hurriedly from outside: "Your Majesty, the empress's palace is asking to see you. "

The emperor frowned, a little dissatisfied, for disturbing Princess Yuan'an and his family relationship for the empress.

The queen used to think that Princess Yuan'an was not very pleasing to the eye. After all, Princess Yuan'an was the first child in the palace, not the child of the queen.

It was hard for the emperor not to think about it.

"Father, since the Empress has something to see, it must be something important, so don't delay it because of my daughter."

Princess Yuan'an tugged at the emperor's sleeve and said softly.

"Let people in."

The emperor patted Princess Yuan'an's hand, and said in a calm voice: "There is also the son-in-law, get up too."

The eldest princess son-in-law got up, and the head servant also brought in a person, a person dressed as a female official, with her head bowed and her body trembling slightly. When she reached the center of the hall, her knees softened and she knelt down on the ground.

"Why did the queen send you here?"

The emperor also began to be dissatisfied with the methods of training people in the empress's palace. Could it be possible to pass the message to the imperial court without a calm person?

"Reporting to Your Majesty, just now, the king of Xiaojun accidentally fell into the water near the empress's bedroom and was rescued. Now the people from the Imperial Hospital are doing rescue work. The empress is guarding over there and dare not leave, so I can only let the slaves come and report first."

The female officer finished speaking with a trembling voice.

Princess Yuan'an next to her was already swaying, and her eyes turned black.

"What little prince, who are you talking about!"

Princess Yuan'an gritted her teeth and stood up straight, walked from the emperor to the female official, stretched out her hand to grab the other's neck, her eyes were full of gloomy anger.

Only the extremely favored princess or the son of the prince can hope to be granted the throne of the county. The county king is not like the princess, he has real power and fiefdom, and in the entire Daqing, the only county king in the next generation is her son.

"Slave, this servant is only here to deliver a message, the princess calms down."

The female official's neck hurt from being grabbed by Princess Yuan'an, and it was difficult to breathe.

"If something happens to my son, I will definitely not let the person who hurt him feel better!"

Princess Yuan'an said word by word, her eyes were full of cruelty.

-

The waiting time was long, and Xie Jinhua held Qin Zheng's hand tightly all the time, and couldn't care less about avoiding others.

Qin Zheng has no identity now. In this palace, as long as he is not paying attention, he will easily become a target or a shield for others. She regrets bringing him into the palace.

Xie Jinhua's hand was trembling slightly, it was because of fear.

Her eyes were fixed on the child who was being rescued on the bed.

At this moment, more than anyone else, she hopes that this child who died too early in the previous life must live and live well in this life.

Qin Zheng glanced at Xie Jinhua's side face, and held her trembling hand instead, his hand was steady and steady, without the slightest tremor.

Apart from Xie Jin's painting, even his own life and death may not affect his thoughts in any way.

A silver needle was inserted into the side of the child's neck with great care. Before the doctor inserted the next silver needle, the child's body on the bed suddenly twitched violently.

The limbs and head trembled together, as if being possessed by something, the eyeballs opened, but they rolled their eyes.

His face was blue and red, and he looked extremely scary.

Physician Wang's complexion changed suddenly: "Hold him quickly, he has cramps! Pull out the silver needles, don't break the silver needles, and don't let the silver needles enter the blood."

He anxiously wanted to take off the silver needles on the little princess's body, but with a slight touch of his hand, the silver needles pierced inside.

Those silver needles will break if they get into the blood.

Several maids and servants in the room rushed forward, but they dared not touch it.

No one is a fool, the situation of the little county king is not right, if something really happens at this time, whoever touches it will be unlucky.

Physician Wang gritted his teeth angrily, trying desperately to restrain the child's shaking and struggling body but couldn't.

The child's teeth chattered and he opened his mouth violently.

Doctor Wang regretted listening to the queen's urging and gave Xiaojun Wang an injection first.

"Don't let him bite his tongue."

A hand suddenly appeared over the child's mouth.

The little king bit hard on the outside of the opponent's palm, blood oozing out, while the other hand firmly pressed the opponent's two wrists, pressing on the abdomen, covering the child's entire upper body. hold down.

As if the palm of his hand was not his own, the young man turned his head and said to Doctor Wang, who was standing there in a daze, "Quickly pull out the needle."

It was Qin Zheng.

Physician Wang came back to his senses, and hurriedly yelled twice, not daring to hesitate, and moved his hands over Xiaojun Wang's body with unprecedented agility, pulling out the silver needles one by one.

Where Qin Zheng's palm touched Xiaojun Wang's lips and teeth, a bloodstain smeared out.

Xie Jinhua felt pain in his heart, but he couldn't stop Qin Zheng.

Qin Zheng has already got involved, and it is better for him to do these things now.

The queen winked at the maids beside her, telling them to back off.

She still doesn't want to get involved.

When the emperor and the eldest princess came in, they saw such a scene.

Seeing Qin Zheng and Imperial Physician Wang holding down her son, the eldest princess frowned, drew out the dagger at her waist, and was about to step forward.

One hand held her: "They are saving lives, don't disturb them."

It's the prince's son-in-law.

There was no usual gentleness on his face, his face was solemn, and he looked at the three people on the bed with deep eyes.
