The unlucky county princess and the crown prince

"This waste, I've favored him for so many years, but he is..." scalding is more painful than stabbing. The emperor is furious. If Li Zude is in front of him, I'm afraid I can't get rid of him immediately.

"If Li Zude doesn't serve the emperor well, my concubine will let Shen Xingsi discipline him well." Queen Xue said with concern: "it's urgent for your majesty to take good care of the dragon body and deal with a slave at any time."

The emperor's complexion was very bad and his mood was extremely depressed. He said wearily, "thank you, Queen."

"Your Majesty, it's my duty to share your worries for you." Queen Xue took a blind look at the emperor's hand wrapped in white cloth. She had already asked the doctor. The degree of scald is not light. It is impossible to recover without ten days and a half.

Moreover, after this injury, the emperor's original condition was more serious, and it was imperative for the crown prince to supervise the country. The problem was that the emperor did not let go, and it would be a day if he could delay it. Queen Xue naturally knew what he was worried about. "Your Majesty, please have a good rest, and I will leave."

"Well!" The emperor slightly narrowed his eyes, "these days, you have to work hard."

"Your Majesty, that's very important." Queen Xue thought of the legend of "Yinghuo Shouxin". The emperor must be full of bad omens now. Even Ning Fei, who used to make him happy, was not as good as before. She said in a warm voice: "Ning Fei, your majesty likes your witty words most. You should serve your majesty well."

"My concubine obeys the order." Anning Princess Jiao voice way: "send off empress Niang."

Li Gonggong was demoted to Shenxing department. The new comer was Huang Gonggong. Huang Gonggong said in a sharp voice, "Your Majesty, I'm looking for you."

The emperor was in a state of impatience. Just as he was about to disappear, he suddenly remembered that the Ming noble had a dragon descendant. "Pass her in."

Ming Fei's body hasn't shown a bosom yet, "minister concubine sees his majesty."

"Flat body, you are pregnant, take good care of yourself." It's hard for the emperor to say.

Mingfei is as tender as water. "Your Majesty is ill. Please allow me to stay here to serve you, or I will have trouble sleeping and eating."

One side of the peace Princess not guest way: "leave you here, is your majesty serve you, or you serve your majesty?"

Ming Fei a Leng, "naturally is minister concubine to wait on your majesty."

Princess Anning said coldly, "you are pregnant, and you are so charming and expensive. You are pretending to serve your majesty. Do you mean to block your majesty?"

Ming Fei wants to cry, "I don't mean that..."

"All right!" The emperor's face is a horizontal, "all give me to go out."

Anning Princess and Mingfei are all surprised, and dare not distinguish more, "I'll leave."

－－－

Changchun palace.

When Aunt Yao saw that the empress had come back from the emperor's bedroom, she didn't say anything. "Is she thinking about the affairs of the court?"

Queen Xue said, "I went to see it just now. The emperor's dragon body has not been good for a long time, but he still doesn't mean to let the crown prince supervise the country."

"What does empress mean

"The emperor is very suspicious. Although the folds of the imperial study have been piled up, he is not willing to do so. It's just that he doesn't want the prince to be more powerful."

"A country can't be without a monarch for one day. I remember that since the emperor's dragon body was in bad health, he had been out of court for seven days. If he drags on, the Minister of the court will surely invite the crown prince to supervise the country." Aunt Yao analyzed it calmly.

"That's what the palace is worried about." "No matter whether it has something to do with the prince or not, the emperor will suspect that it is the result of the prince's incitement behind his back," Queen Xue said

"Niang Niang, do you think the emperor will let King Luo..."

"No Queen Xue was very sure: "under the premise of establishing a prince, the prince supervising the state is equivalent to Yi Chu. At present, the emperor is not willing to take this risk. Second, the king Luo is involved in the case of murdering Xu. On the crest of the storm, it is impossible for him to supervise the state."

"That's strange. The emperor's illness can't be cured immediately, and only the way of the crown prince and the state can go. Is it good for him to drag on?" Aunt Yao thought that it was not like the emperor's style to leave the government alone.

"Or what is he waiting for?" Queen Xue slowly said that she had been married to the emperor for many years and knew that the emperor was not indecisive. It was his nature to dare to kill him.

No matter how clever queen Xue is, the emperor is waiting for a person, Wang Tianqing, who has been a disciple of Laojun for more than 200 years.

－－－

Although the case of Xu's murder was suddenly scalded by the emperor, the trial was forced to stop abruptly, and the eyewitness was also detained in the guard room, this high-profile case can only come to an end.

But xuanyuanluo's heart was always erratic, because the little beggar had no idea what he saw, and when he came to Dai Qing's hands, his people could not touch him at all. He was calm on the surface, but on the bottom of his heart he was on pins and needles.

In this way, after several days, I suddenly heard the emperor's instruction from the palace again, and ordered him to enter the palace immediately.

The only difference is that the emperor's hand is wrapped with thick gauze, and the atmosphere is more dignified than last time.

The reason why the emperor tried the case again with his sick body in the case that the dragon was not healed was that a big event had just happened two hours ago.

After Xu was killed, Mrs. Xu was shocked and bedridden, but there was no progress in the case for several days. Mrs. Xu became ill and left with unfinished resentment.

Originally, the emperor did not see any foreign ministers during his convalescence, but no one dared to hide such a big news. The Xu family wrote a letter in tears, imploring his majesty to do justice for the grand master and Mrs. Xu.

After such a big accident, even if the emperor was upset, he had to summon up his spirit and try the case again.

Xuanyuanluo didn't know that Mrs. Xu had died of anxiety and illness. However, even if he knew it, he would not feel it. If he wanted to achieve great things, it was worth killing even more people, not to mention a few.

"My son's ministers see my father."

The emperor motioned to Yin Yi of shuntianfu, and Li Sheng said, "pass on the witness."

Xuanyuanluo's heart sank and he couldn't help looking out. Dai Qing, commander of the imperial guards, brought in a little beggar himself.

Because he wanted to meet the emperor, the little beggar changed his clean clothes and washed his hair, but he could still see what he had done before.

The little beggar was about fifteen or sixteen years old. When he saw such a solemn occasion for the first time, especially when he saw the majestic son of heaven, he was so scared that his legs and feet softened. Dai Qing yelled: "kneel down."

The little beggar trembled, his knees softened, and knelt on the ground, "Cao min... Cao min Dong er... See... Your majesty..."

See small beggar shake shake rope, Xuan Yuan Luo sneer, "now don't ascend elegant hall of people, can do evidence?"

Yue Xian is in the anger of Mrs. Xu's sudden death. He retorts: "people who can no longer be elegant have a pair of eyes and ears. Why can't they testify?"

At the beginning, the atmosphere of fierce fighting obviously frightened the little beggar, but the emperor was not very patient. He snorted and opened the door to the mountain and said, "what did you see in Wuyi Lane on the third day of February?"

The little beggar is still in shock. He was really scared before. In order to get the vital evidence from him, bailixue brings out Xiao Yanyan's memory, which has been sealed. After three days of needling, the little beggar's mental state gradually stabilizes.

Wuyi lane is a gathering place for beggars. At the thought of the bloody picture, the little beggar trembled, his eyes were frightened, and his face turned pale. Yue Xian said, "Your Majesty, this man has been frightened. Please follow me."

"Don't be afraid, Dong er. Tell the truth about what you see and hear." It was Prince xuanyuanjue who spoke.

When he saw the handsome man sitting in the lower right seat of the emperor in the white robe of January, the little beggar knew that it was the prince of the dynasty. This was not the first time he had seen the prince. At that time, there was a beautiful girl who gave her a needle.

Hearing the prince's voice, I don't know why, the little beggar woke up in a strange way.

"On the third day of February, CaoMing was sleeping in a dilapidated alley in Wuyi lane. Because he was hungry, he got up to look for something to eat. Suddenly he heard two men talking. CaoMing was curious for a moment, so he sneaked in."

Xuanyuanluo's palm unconsciously clenched and assassinated Xu. Although he didn't do it himself or send his own people to participate in the assassination, he went to Wuyi Lane on the third day of February.

The atmosphere of Yangxin Temple suddenly condensed, and the emperor said, "what did they say?"

The little beggar obviously didn't adapt to the dull atmosphere and gritted his teeth. "The grasshopper heard one of them say that the target will pass soon. Don't let him leave alive."

Yue Xian's heart suddenly pulled, and Xu could not even dream of it. He just went out to visit friends, but he already had a pair of evil eyes thinking about him.

The emperor took a cold look at Xuanyuan Luo and saw that the expression on his face had not changed at all, as if it had nothing to do with it. "What happened later?"

The little beggar shook his rope and said, "the other said, your highness, please wait for good news."

To tell you the truth, although he heard clearly at that time, he didn't understand the meaning of the dialogue. Until a well decorated carriage came, the sound of the horse's hooves broke the silence of Wuyi lane, and then a bloody scene suddenly appeared. A dark shadow passed like lightning. In a flash, seven or eight people died.

He was scared out of his wits and paralyzed in the grass. All his strength was taken away until the murder case was discovered. When someone came from shuntianfu, he was still terrified.

Seeing him like this, others thought he was insane, but there was only one living person near the scene, so he was taken away as an eyewitness.

Xuanyuanluo did not expect that this fatal conversation was heard by a little beggar. However, Jia Chen, a master of this level, did not find anyone eavesdropping?

On purpose? Or unintentionally?

However, the critical situation did not allow xuanyuanluo to consider those things that were not urgent, because the little beggar's testimony contained the word "Your Highness".

After all, there are not many people who can be called "His Highness", and the murderer died in Lord Luo's residence. The truth of the case is ready to come out.

Yue Xian grieved that his old friends and his wife had been killed one after another. He said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, master Xu was really murdered. I sincerely ask your majesty to make a thorough investigation so as to comfort the spirit of Xu's husband and wife in heaven."

The emperor was as cold as water, and his cold eyes floated past the crucial little beggar, "do you see their appearance?"

The little beggar was terrified by the cold light in the emperor's eyes. If it wasn't for the prince's presence, he would have fainted and said in a trembling voice: "no... yes, the grass people dare not go there. Later... They saw the killer's appearance, but... He was wearing a mask. I don't know what he looked like?"

"Are you sure you heard the word" Your Highness " The emperor's lips and teeth are chilly.

The little beggar nodded heavily, "yes, in front of your Majesty's face, even the grassroots dare not lie."

All kinds of evidences point to the king of Luo. The emperor is suspicious and his eyes become colder and colder. "King Luo, did you go to Wuyi Lane on the third day of February?"

The emperor doubted himself. Xuanyuanluo looked him in the eye and swore, "no, on the third day of February, my son visited my grandfather. He never went to Wuyi lane."

Seeing that his father's doubts had not subsided, xuanyuanluo said, "if your father does not believe me, you can call people from kanglebo mansion to inquire."

"It's well known that Kang Lebo is his Highness's grandfather. How do you know that he won't protect his weaknesses?" Yue Xian gave a sneer.

"Kang Lebo is indeed the king's grandfather, but he is also the son of his father and Emperor. He eats the emperor's salary, shares the emperor's worries, and is loyal. There is no suspicion of favoritism. The chief assistant questioned Kang Lebo's unfairness. Is he accusing his father of improper employment?" Xuanyuan Luo retorted lightly.

Yue Xian didn't expect that all the witnesses were there. King Luo was so eloquent and eloquent that he said angrily, "Your Majesty has always been holy and bright, and the government is clean and bright, but you can't help being troubled by some petty people."

"Yue Aiqing." When the emperor saw that Yue Xian was too excited, he stopped, and then his tone became more serious. He said, "King Luo, I'll ask you again. On the third day of February, did you really not go to Wuyi lane?"

Xuanyuanluo is calm on the surface, but uneasy at the bottom of his heart. His father is suspicious, and the situation is so bad for him. He must think of a way to dispel his father's doubts. He does not answer the rhetorical question, showing his sadness. "Is he doubting his son's officials?"

"I just want to find out the truth." The emperor is not moved, "you answer truthfully is."

Xuanyuanluo said impassioned, "just by some malicious rumors, the so-called testimony of a confused little beggar, can we identify him as a son's minister? If we can find out the truth as soon as possible, we can ensure the death of Xu, the people's will of the court, and the health of our father's Dragon. If our children's ministers admit it, we don't have to ask him any more. "

Xuanyuan Luo said that, the emperor began to hesitate again, and another possibility appeared in his mind. Is it true that someone deliberately framed King Luo?

The emperor immediately summoned Kang Lebo. What Kang Lebo said is exactly the same as what king Luo said. On the third day of February, King Luo was in Kang Lebo's house all the time and didn't go back until dusk. Judging from the time, it's impossible for him to appear in Wuyi lane.

Xuanyuan Jue's eyes are deep. Xuanyuan Luo has long colluded with Kang Lebo to testify. Naturally, Kang Lebo is trying to protect his grandson.

Yue Xian did not expect that King Luo was so cunning and anxious. If the emperor could not make a clear trial of the case with his sick body, it would be difficult for him to find out the case again.

The little beggar has been taken down, and the atmosphere of Yangxin hall is so oppressive that people can breathe. Although xuanyuanluo is still calm on the surface, his heart is not as calm as on the surface. His father has not completely dispelled his doubts. The word "Your Highness" in the little beggar's words still touches his father.

How to dispel the doubts of his father?

Xuanyuanluo thinks quickly at the bottom of his heart. He knows that although his father thinks highly of himself, once he is determined to be the person behind the murder of Xu, he will turn his face immediately, and Yue Xian and other old people will be looking at him. At that time, let alone his future, I'm afraid that he will not be able to keep his position as Prince. His painstaking efforts for many years will be destroyed.
