418 Jade Peril
The night was dark.
Kun'er stumbled and ran in the dark, and there were two little chamberlains who took care of him closely, and they followed him all the way to the gate of Qian'er's palace, and was ordered by Kun'er to stand in place and wait. After all, the little chamberlain was young, and it was the time to play, so he took the opportunity to extinguish the wind lamp in his hand and hide in a corner where no one paid attention to it.
When they found out, Kun'er had already run out of the palace of the imperial brother, and they didn't even greet the two chamberlains, but just ran forward by themselves.
"Wait—wait, Your Highness Kun—" The little chamberlain hurriedly chased.
Kun'er rushed into her palace in one breath as if she had been evil, threw herself into the bedroom, threw herself on the bed, pulled the quilt to cover her face, and ignored anyone.
The palace maid who was waiting was surprised, and hurriedly came to check, touched his forehead, wiped off a handful of sweat, and was so shocked that the palace maid shouted: "Little ancestor, what's wrong with you? Why are you still sweating when you come back so late?"
Kun'er suddenly threw herself into the arms of the big palace maid, hugged her tightly, her small body trembled like a fallen leaf in the wind, and her mouth cried: "Sister, save me, I'm in trouble-I killed Brother Qian'er-"
The palace maid sighed in her heart, but she endured her surprise, wiped her sweat, and coaxed him: "Isn't it that you have been playing in His Royal Highness's palace for a long time, and come back in the dark, and you are scared, right?" Raising her eyes and looking behind her, "You two don't want to live anymore, don't you, how can you be on an errand?" Not only did you not persuade Your Highness to come back quickly, but you dared to connive at Your Highness running around outside in the middle of the night?"
Frightened, the two little chamberlains hurriedly knelt on the ground and shouted that they had been wronged, saying that they had persuaded them, but His Royal Highness Kun did not listen.
Kun'er's body trembled violently as if she was afraid of the cold, and her lips trembled, "Sister-sister, really, I didn't lie, I really killed--I want to take revenge-I'm avenging my mother!So my father won't blame me, right? My father likes him, but he also likes me, right, sister? My father won't give me the death penalty, right-"
The palace maid suddenly softened on the ground in fright, but after all, she was older than Kun'er, and she knew the stakes, so she struggled to get up and took Kun'er into her arms, "Your Highness, don't you dare to joke like this, hasn't Your Highness always been very good to you, how could you kill him?"
Kun'er cried with tears on her face and shook the big palace maid's arm: "I really killed him-I stuck the dagger in his stomach-blood! a lot of blood-you see, I was still a little confused here when he pushed me-" raised his hand to show the big palace maid.
The palace maid reached out and touched his cuffs, and sure enough, she felt blood.
"My little ancestor, why do you suddenly want to kill someone? It is His Royal Highness who His Majesty values the most! This time, Your Majesty will definitely not spare us -- we will not survive!"
Several little palace maids behind him were also frightened and cried.
Emperor Zhengxi stepped into the gate of Qian'er's palace with his front foot, and came with his back foot.
The Imperial Physician was also urgently summoned.
Qian'er had already been carried to the bed and lay down, the imperial doctor took the pulse, stopped the bleeding, and the silver needles that gave first aid were pierced one by one - the scene was chaotic.
Emperor Zhengxi's face was full of anxiety, but he was the emperor, the more critical the scene, the calmer he had to be, he tried his best to suppress the uneasiness in his heart, and just ordered the imperial doctor to say: "Help-save my life no matter what!"
Imperial Physician Wang's thin old face became darker and darker under the lamplight, and it seemed that he would run out of oil at any time and die of exhaustion.
But he had to live, he closed his eyes, trying to gain a little composure in the chaos, his thin hand clasped on the young man's white wrist, condensing his thoughts, catching and feeling the movement of the boy's blood.
The air was stagnant.
Duanyi rushed to the door, a pair of silky embroidered soft shoes stopped outside the threshold, and she was frightened by the deathly silence. Stood still, not daring to rush in.
Outside the door, the palace people of Qian'er knelt in half of the courtyard, one by one slammed their heads deep on the blue brick ground, every heart was beating violently, and they were secretly praying that the little master would not die, the little master was really going to die, and they would definitely have their heads on the ground for their burial - His Majesty was furious like that, and he would definitely kill him.
At this time, the imperial physician slowly straightened his neck, exhaled a breath of turbidity, looked at the emperor, and shook his head: "Your Majesty-"
Emperor Zhengxi's heart suddenly cooled: "Is it really hopeless? Is it dangerous?" His Majesty's expression finally showed panic, he entered the door and saw his son stained with blood in a large red robe, and then looked at Qian'er closed his eyes, and immediately concluded that the situation was dangerous.
Imperial Physician Wang still shook his head: "The old minister is shallow in knowledge, has poor medical skills, has diagnosed countless injuries and illnesses in half his life, and has encountered this critical situation - but it is very strange, such an injury on someone else must have been saved a long time ago, but His Royal Highness's pulse is weak and long, like a thin river, meandering and continuing, it seems that it will dry up and break at any time, but it still meanders all the way, and it can still persevere, His Highness's heart is much stronger than ordinary people——"
The emperor was so angry that he glared: "You just say that you can be cured, what are you doing around so many bends?"
Imperial Physician Wang knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, the minister will just say it, the dagger is too deep under the left rib, and the blood flows too much, Your Highness is in danger now." The minister is incompetent, and he really can't be saved - at most, he can only use good ginseng soup to help him hang his life, delaying for three or five days, but to pull out the dagger, replenish blood, and diagnose and treat, the minister is incompetent and uncertain. ”
Zhengxi suddenly raised his hand and pushed down Imperial Physician Wang, "The long-winded thing for a long time is just to show that you can't be cured? What's the use of raising you wastes one by one? None of them are useful at critical times?"
Everywhere they looked, the imperial doctors all bowed their heads tremblingly, and the imperial doctors couldn't see it well, and they didn't dare to say that they were sure.
Zhengxi's angry gaze stared at his son, and a dagger was exposed under his son's lifted robe, which was deeply inserted into Qian'er's stomach.
Emperor Zhengxi's heart ached, "Then quickly pull out the dagger, what are you doing with it?"
Imperial Physician Wang hurriedly stopped: "You can't pull it out, the dagger is too deep into the flesh, once you pull it out rashly, the blood will splash, and Your Highness will be even more dangerous." ”
The emperor stomped his feet, looked at his son, looked around, and his eyes were full of murder: "Who killed him? Are all the people in this palace dead? Get in and tell Zheng quickly, who killed Qian'er? If I want to take revenge, I will definitely break the villain's body into ten thousand pieces." ”
A chamberlain crawled in on his knees and stumbled back, "Yes, yes...... Your Highness Himself! His Highness Himself—"
Everyone's eyes almost fell to the ground, and Zhengxi was even more surprised: "Are you scared and confused? Your master has nothing to do, and he has nothing to do with a dagger on his body? and he has to take his life on the line? You kid dare to play tricks here with me? Come on, drag him down and cut him down!"
The chamberlain cried and shouted: "No, no, this is not said by the minions, it was explained by His Highness Qianqian before he fell into a coma, and the minions were asked to answer you like this——"
"Qian'er asked you to lie like this?" Zhengxi looked at the attendant in surprise, "You kid is full of nonsense, it's just a bad face - come, just chop off your head and feed it to the dog!"
The chamberlain cried again: "The servants don't dare—the servants are honest—yes, it's His Highness Kun, His Highness Kun killed His Highness Qian!" Late at night, His Highness Kun wanted to come to see His Highness Qian's nephrite paperweight, and His Highness Qian's kindness showed it to him, but His Highness Kun suddenly made a move, and the minions were far away from him, and they didn't have time to protect His Highness Qian, and besides, His Highness and His Highness Kun were close relatives and flesh and blood, and they often came and went, and the minions never dreamed that he would suddenly attack His Highness of my family. ”
Jeong-hee's middle-aged man's face was gradually distorted by a complex emotion.
He suddenly shouted: "Take Kun'er!"
Duanyi couldn't wait calmly any longer, "Your Majesty-" With a shout, his body pounced softly and softly pasted to His Majesty's side, "This is right and wrong, where can I listen to the words of an inner servant, these people are all castrated, and there is no accurate number of words - besides, Kun'er is so small, how can he suddenly kill someone, he and Qian'er have the best relationship, they don't see each other for a few days a day, they all shout about their brother, they want to eat and sleep not sweet." He's a little kid, how can he have such a deep scheming to kill people? Besides, Kun'er must have fallen asleep in the middle of the night——"
She can only find a way to delay time now, and now call Kun'er, maybe His Majesty will really order Kun'er to be killed in anger, and drag it back, and wait for His Majesty's anger to be slightly reduced, and his brain will be much clearer, at that time, even if Kun'er is investigated for the crime of killing his brother, it will not directly fall to the ground, and this also gives her room to turn around, relying on His Majesty's favor for herself, she will use all her means to curry favor, and it is estimated that Your Majesty's heart can also be slightly softened- The situation was too sudden, she had already fallen asleep, and suddenly heard about the incident here, and the chamberlain reported that the whole palace was shouting that His Royal Highness Kun had killed His Highness Qian, she was immediately frightened, got up and stumbled to this side, blocking the news and concealing His Majesty It was no longer possible, she could only do some remedial work with the mud. Fortunately, the queen went to the imperial temple to pray for blessings, and she was not in the palace these days, otherwise she would have begged His Majesty to bring Kun'er to ask for her guilt.
"You have to sleep—" His Majesty ignored Duanyi's suggestion and ordered with a dark face.
The chamberlain went away.
Duanyi's heart sank, knowing that the situation was not good, Kun'er couldn't hide.
Even if she couldn't dodge, she had to find a way to minimize the guilt, and she looked at the fragments of paperweight on the ground.
"Your Majesty," she knelt down, clutching a few pieces of shards in her hand, "It's all the nephrite that is to blame, look at it, the paperweight you gave to the emperor is broken like this, it must have been smashed by His Royal Highness Qian, Kun'er also gave the concubine during the day, and said with tears in her eyes, my father gave the paperweight to Brother Qian, and Brother Qian invited him to watch the paperweight, Brother Qian, he only allowed him to watch from a distance, not to touch it, and also said a lot of words." ”
She didn't say anything, the good-looking Danfeng looked at His Majesty, and stopped talking.
Emperor Zhengxi was irritable, "What else did you say? ”
Duanyi's eyes flickered, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness looks steady, but after all, he is a child, and he said something that should not be said, so I hope Your Majesty will not care." ”
Zhengxi was irritable: "What the hell do you say, don't go around in circles!"
Duanyi's voice was still charming, "His Royal Highness said that this paperweight is made of fine nephrite, and now this nephrite is more golden, a piece of nephrite is better than a piece of gold, and it is hard to find gold on the market, and the only thing that is taken away by Marshal Bai back then." He also said that he had heard rumors in the market that the people who are really rich and rival the country today are not the left and right Xiangguo, or even His Majesty who is not above the imperial court or ten thousand people, but the Bai family, Bai Feng of Qingzhou Mansion. And His Majesty's ability to give him such a precious nephrite alone shows that he is the prince with high hopes from His Majesty, and the shape of the paperweight is a dragon, which further shows His Majesty's profound intentions. So...... So ......"
Emperor Zhengxi's face had changed color.
Duanyi still pretended not to see it, and added in the period: "So His Royal Highness said that he must be the heir to the great unification of the Dongliang Kingdom in the future, and Kun'er, as an ordinary prince, can only watch this paperweight from a distance and cannot touch it." ”
At this time, Kun'er arrived.
He was dragged by the palace people and staggered into the door, looking at his father and aunt, and he didn't kneel, but stood still with his mouth pouted.
"Kun'er, come and tell your father, how is nephrite broken?Did you beg the imperial brother to take a look at nephrite, but your imperial brother didn't give it, and your dispute broke it?"
Kun'er didn't lean in front of her aunt, nor did she nod, but shook her head: "No, the paperweight was not broken by the imperial brother, it's me, me, I'...... I killed the royal brother, and I will replace ......."
"It's all nephrite that is to blame—" Duanyi suddenly cried, and suddenly burst into tears, pear blossoms brought rain, and the cry was miserable, covering up Kun'er's last words.
Zhengxi was impetuous, "Qian'er is still in a coma, if you want to cry, get out and cry, it's noisy and dead-"
Duanyi immediately grabbed Kun'er's arm and left, flying away.
Emperor Zhengxi stood up and walked half a circle on the ground, looked at his son whose face was like gold paper, and suddenly shouted: "Spread Yin Zuoxiang at night, tell him to quickly arrange manpower, go to Qingzhou Mansion, and behead Bai Feng's door!"
