Xiangmen Concubine: The Emperor's Abandoned Concubine

Chapter 201 The Prince
At the beginning of April in the 38th year of the Fengtian Dynasty, Emperor Fengzhao suddenly felt the wind and cold, and his sick body was finally unable to go to court again. The crown prince was deposed, and the third prince was far away in Nanjun.

That night, Emperor Feng Zhao was suddenly poisoned. Fortunately, the genius doctor Nanjun Wang Shizi saved Emperor Feng Zhao's life in Jingling City.

It's just that Emperor Feng Zhao no longer has the energy to face the court, and has been living in the palace for a long time.

On April 38th in the [-]th year of the Fengtian Dynasty, Emperor Fengzhao, who had lived in the palace for a long time, was furious because of a secret letter from General Yang Muzhong who was going to the northwest border.

The officials of the imperial court realized the truth later, and only learned the truth a day later.

It turned out that on April [-]th, the five princes who went to the northwest border suddenly rebelled in Bianhe City, intending to seize the throne.

His Highness Nine, who went to the northwest border with His Highness the Fifth Prince, joins forces with General Yang Muzhong, and General Yang Muzhong starts a fierce battle with His Highness's rebels outside Bianhe City.

It's just surprising that the people of Bianhe City didn't know anything about the war in Bianhe City.Outside the city is bloody and rainy, and inside the city is full of flowers.

What surprised the people of Jingling City was that everyone in Bianhe City respected His Highness the Ninth Prince who came to Bianhe City only a few days after the war.

No one can explain the specific reason.

Some people said that the reason why General Yang Muzhong was able to capture His Highness the Fifth Highness in one fell swoop was because His Highness the Ninth Highness had borrowed all the best shadow guards around him, and held back His Highness the Fifth Highness's people.

It is also said that His Highness the Ninth Prince persuaded the head of the Tianmen Village with a few words and a few words, and let the Tianmen Village submit to the court.At the same time, taking advantage of the terrain of Tianmenzhai, he dealt a heavy blow to His Highness the Fifth Highness at Shilipo.

His Highness Fifth fled in embarrassment from Shilipo. Bianhe City was where His Highness Fifth was stationed. His Highness Ninth and General Yang attacked one after the other.

But what is the truth, even the ministers who stood in the hall and listened to Emperor Fengzhao's canonization of the crown prince, most of them didn't quite understand.

After the imperial decree of conferring the crown prince was issued, many ministers had clear eyes and calm hearts, while some ministers were dumbfounded.

The ministers who supported the abolished prince couldn't believe their ears, while the ministers who supported the fifth prince dared not speak.

With their heads still on their necks, the prime minister, Emperor Ruan Hua, directly ordered all the families to be executed.Those high officials in the court and the middle school quickly separated their relationship.

The deposed prince and the first prince could have been relied on, but a message from the East Palace made all the ministers who were ready to support the first prince lose their minds.

It turned out that when Emperor Fengzhao was poisoned, the only prince in the palace was the eldest prince.In the middle of the night after being poisoned, the eldest prince did indeed arrive at the emperor's bedroom.

However, the pungent smell of alcohol made Feng Zhaodi frown, and sent someone to drive him out.

The eldest prince, Feng Junche, refused to accept it, and because he was delirious after drinking, he couldn't control his emotions for a while, and directly sued the emperor.

Emperor Feng Zhao just woke up from the poisoning, and his already weak body fainted from anger because of the accusation of the eldest prince.But after waking up, he directly sent the eldest prince into the prison.

How much crime is it to accuse the emperor?

The ministers of Liushenwuzhu turned their attention to the Third Highness Feng Zixu, but the Third Highness Feng Zixu was far away in Nanjun.

Moreover, the third prince went to Nanjun to avoid the prince from seizing the throne.In addition, the third prince has always been immersed in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and has never cared too much about court affairs.

On the other hand, His Highness Ninth Prince was never favored in the past, but no one thought that after the emperor conferred the imperial decree, His Royal Highness Nine was directly canonized as the crown prince, and he would ascend the throne ten days later.

The ministers who originally wanted to join the princes were quite surprised.There were also those who complained for the eldest prince. Emperor Feng Zhao directly used the eight words "no court order, despise the emperor" to convict the eldest prince, put him on death row, and beheaded after autumn.

The minister who complained on behalf of the eldest prince was directly exiled on the southern border, and was not allowed to set foot in Jingling City for generations.

However, for half a day, Empress Feng Churuo, who had been bedridden for a while, couldn't bear it because she heard that her son had been sent to death row, and suffocated to death.

Those courtiers who were aggrieved and wanted to jointly write a letter to defend the eldest prince, after seeing many ministers jointly signed and firmly supported His Highness Ninth Highness's letter, they directly gave up their thoughts.

General Gu Qingyun's face was very ugly, but everything written in those memorials was true.

Killing the secret door, capturing Qingyin alive, those things were all clarified by the secret person next to the emperor, and it was the work of His Highness the Ninth Prince.

Flooding around the city, the magistrate around the city died inexplicably, and millions of disaster relief funds were distributed to the people.His Highness Ninth Prince's reputation among the common people, when he entered the palace today, was full of good reputation everywhere.

Such a situation, unless the ministers are blind or deaf.

For a while, after His Highness Ninth Prince returned to the palace, all the ministers immediately changed their words and called him "His Royal Highness the Prince".

Ruan Mianmian did not enter the palace with Feng Jiuyou, but was directly escorted back to Jiuyou Palace by the guards.It took only a cup of tea to return to Jiuyou Palace, but Hsinchu came over and said that there were guests visiting.

Looking at Hsinchu's expression, Ruan Mianmian asked suspiciously, "Who?"

Hsinchu was a little hesitant, and said in a low voice, "Princess, the prince of Nanjun is visiting."

A look of astonishment appeared on his face, and Ruan Mianmian regained his composure in an instant.Looking at Hsinchu with a smile, he said: "The prince of Nanjun must have some important business with His Highness, so he said that His Highness Jiu has not returned from the palace yet, let him come back tomorrow."

Hsinchu gritted his teeth and whispered: "Princess, the prince of Nanjun said that he is here to see you."

Ruan Mianmian smiled and said, "See me?"

Hsinchu nodded firmly: "Yes, the prince said, see the princess."

"From the moment I arrived at Jiuyou Palace, you were almost by my side. When I went out, you were always by my side. When did I get to know the Prince of Nanjun?"

Hsinchu tilted his head and thought for a while, then shook his head: "Not really."

After a pause, he said, "But, the prince said he wanted to see you. Princess, but...but that is the prince of Nanjun."

Hsinchu's eyes flickered a little, with a shyness of a little girl.However, there was a trace of worry.

Ruan Mianmian frowned: "Because I'm the prince's son of Nanjun, I must see you."

Hsinchu was a little tangled, and Xiao Xiao begged: "Princess, that is the prince's son of Nanjun. Although His Highness has been named the crown prince, he will ascend the throne in the future."

Ruan Mianmian raised her hand, signaling Hsinchu to stop.

Even Hsinchu can understand such things, not to mention her.

Feng Jiuyou was canonized as the prince at this time, and there were various rumors about His Highness Jiu all the way back.

Ascension to the throne as the emperor is firstly the canonization of the emperor, and secondly, if Nanjun does not support it, it is hard to say how long this throne will last.

Or be able to sit still, but not too securely.

Why did Feng Changxi come to her at this time?

Looking up at Hsinchu, Ruan Mianmian said indifferently: "Hsinchu, ask someone to invite the prince to the front hall, so that you can entertain me. You follow me in and change clothes."

After returning to Jiuyou Palace, Ruan Mianmian was not in a hurry to change into men's clothes.And on the way back, in order to get out of the car and ride a horse at any time, she directly wore men's clothes.

Although Feng Jiuyou disagreed, she just frowned and didn't speak.

However, the veil on the face was replaced by a bamboo hat.

Although Ruan Mianmian didn't like it, she thought that if she took the bamboo hat, Feng Jiuyou would not let her get out of the car.

Hsinchu helped change into a set of women's clothes, Ruan Mianmian was about to go out, and Hsinchu pulled up the veil again: "Princess, veil."

Ruan Mianmian was a little helpless, but she didn't refuse.

This face... used to be a human skin mask, but now it is a veil.
