Chapter 119: Woe Arises
"What, Nine Emperor Princes, are you sick, why are you talking nonsense?"
Jin Zhen raised his eyebrows, "It's okay, let's go back." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Ah, don't you go and explain it to the emperor?"
Jin Zhen didn't answer again, and staggered back to the house with his hands behind his back.
The next day, Jin Zhen went to the court as before, Jin Xiang didn't look at him from beginning to end, didn't blame him or mention it in particular, and the interaction between the court and the court in the past suddenly disappeared.
This situation has been going on for a few days, which can't help but make people wonder, has the emperor's heart changed again?
Of course, Jin Qiao and the queen are the ones who are most pleased with this phenomenon, but they are not satisfied with the status quo, but take advantage of this good opportunity to add fuel to the fire.
Jin Zhen, who was happy and leisurely now, was lying comfortably on the Taishi's chair with his eyes closed, but at this time, a little eunuch who had repaired the palace in the past came to ask to see him.
Although Jin Zhen was puzzled, he still let people bring him in.
As soon as the little eunuch came in, he knelt on the ground and looked around cautiously, Jin Zhen became even more suspicious when he saw his appearance, and immediately dismissed all the subordinates around him.
Then stared at him: "Do you have anything to say to me?"
The little eunuch's face was solemn, "Yes, the slave does have something to say to the Nine Emperors, it is about the ...... of His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince."
Jin Zhen immediately jumped up when he heard these words, and asked excitedly, "What did you say? Could it be that you have news of Seventh Brother?"
"Yes. The Seventh Emperor is now in the capital, but he said that there is one thing that he needs to ask the Nine Emperors to help with. ”
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
The little eunuch was mysterious, leaned into his ear and whispered a sentence and said, "The words have been brought, the slave has retired, and the Nine Emperor Princes are invited to help." ”
Jin Zhen was stunned for a long time after hearing this, but then he took a deep breath, as if he had made some decision.
The weather warmed up, the seasons changed, Jin Xiang suddenly fell ill, and the doctor said that it was the wind and cold that invaded the body and needed to recuperate. Not only did he strike for three days, but he also moved into the Heart Nourishing Hall to carefully recuperate.
In order to show filial piety, the prince personally served the sick, and Yu's father-in-law persuaded Jin Zhen to take the opportunity to show his filial piety, but Jin Zhen refused.
Because he has more important things to do now.
Although he knew that if this matter was exposed, it would definitely bring serious consequences, but he still had to do it.
At first he was skeptical of the truth when he heard the news, but then he believed it. Because if it was really what the little eunuch said, he would do it himself, even if it wasn't for help.
That's right, he was going to steal the ashes of the high priest from his father's bedchamber.
Although he was condemned by all the people of Dayuan before he died, his admiration and worship for her were the same as Han'er's liking for Shao Siming.
He didn't want her to be blasphemed until she died.
So now that my father is sick, it is a great opportunity, and he has to find a suitable opportunity to do it. But Jin Zhen is not brainless, this year he knows that Yin Qian and the prince are inseparable, and he has not betrayed the seventh brother, so he went to ask Yin Qian's opinion before doing this.
Yin Qian was silent after hearing this, he had now lost the news of Fei Tong and He Yu, the whole person was in chaos, and he didn't have the intention of going to Jin Ling for verification, he just thought that he would do it for Fei Tong.
He just told Jin Zhen that Jin Ling had indeed returned to Yindu.
Jin Zhen was taken aback, "Why didn't Brother Seventh inform me earlier when he came back?"
Maybe it's because he's too busy to care about anything else. ”
Yin Qian still felt a little unhappy in his heart when he said this, but Jin Zhen couldn't hear it.
"Major General Yin, can you take me to see Seventh Brother when you have time? No, no...... If it's not convenient for him right now, it's okay to send a message. ”
"Nine Emperor Princes, now the court is too chaotic, the situation is not clear, and you don't have any forces behind you to help, it's best to protect yourself, as far as I can see, this matter is very important, but you can hurry or delay, you don't have to be too anxious. ”
"Well, I am also a little relieved to know the news of Seventh Brother now, and I also ask the general to help take care of Seventh Brother, after all, you used to have a good relationship, with your help, I believe that Seventh Brother will also go more smoothly." Then I'll take my leave. ”
After Jin Zhen finished speaking, he left, Yin Qian looked at his somewhat lonely back, and couldn't help but sigh.
Once upon a time, Jin Zhen would only hide behind Jin Ling, and he didn't dare to come out when he caused trouble, but now, he was willing to take such a big risk to help him for Jin Ling, and he didn't care what kind of punishment he would suffer.
In this world, there are some things that change too fast.
Thinking of Jin Ling again, his mood was really mixed.
After Jin Zhen returned to the palace, she went to find Jin Han, she was weak and had fallen ill in the past few days, but she didn't have so many people to care about.
She was very happy to see him coming, and called out weakly "Ninth Brother".
Jin Zhen put down the things he was carrying and walked quickly to her, "Why did you get up? Didn't you tell you to lie down and rest? Look at you, you love to be sick at a young age, and Brother Jiu doesn't want you to grow up and become a sick princess in the future." ”
Jin Han knew that he was teasing her, and looked at the table, "Brother Jiu, have you brought me delicious food again, I can't eat anything now, so I want to eat things outside the palace." ”
Jin Zhen smiled slyly and opened the bag to show her, but when she saw the contents clearly, she immediately frowned, "I'm already drinking medicine, why did you bring me medicine again, Brother Jiu?"
"Don't worry about it, I can tell you, this doctor's ability is comparable to that of the imperial doctor, and his medicine is not bitter, Brother Jiu knows that Han'er is afraid of hardship, so he deliberately bothered to get it. ”
"Isn't it really bitter?"
"Really, you believe Brother Jiu, if you don't believe it, I'll try it for you. ”
Seeing that she still had a trace of doubt, Jin Zhen tasted it directly and showed it to her. Seeing that his face did not change, Jin Han relieved his heart, "Then let people go down and boil, I will definitely finish drinking." ”
"That's good!"
Then, as if conjuring a trick, he conjured a string of sugar gourds from his arms, and Jin Han's eyes became bright when he saw it.
Just as he was about to get it, Jin Zhen withdrew his hand, "You can't eat it now, you can't eat it until you finish drinking the medicine." ”
Jin Han pursed his lips, a little disappointed.
"By the way, Han'er, Brother Jiu has one more thing to tell you today. ”
"What?"
"Seventh Brother has returned to Yindu. ”
"What?!" Jin Han looked at in surprise, "So where is he now?"
Jin Zhen shook his head, "I don't know this very well, but I have already checked with Major General Yin Qian, so there should be no mistake." ”
"Great, I miss him so much if I haven't seen Brother Qi for so long!"
Jin Zhen smiled, "Yes, he is finally back, and we will have someone to protect us in the future, it's really good, right?"
Jin Han nodded straightly, "Uh-huh." ”
"But before he returns, I have to do something for him. Even if it's dangerous, I'm still going to do it. ”
She couldn't hear it clearly, "Brother Jiu, what are you talking about, what are you going to do?"
Jin Zhen smiled slightly and touched her head, "It's nothing, what if I won't be discovered?" You, just rest well and pray for Brother Jiu." ”
Jin Han nodded obediently, he was relieved and relieved.
Night.
Jin Zhen changed his clothes, he looked at himself, not to mention, he really looked a little like a martial arts master. Although he was suitable for Jin Ling to learn martial arts together since he was a child, many masters said that he was not the material for practicing martial arts, so later he gave up on himself, and simply learned a little more casually, and he couldn't even say anything half-hearted.
But none of this matters, the important thing is that he thinks he is handsome in this way, and that's enough.
Taking advantage of the alternation of guards in the middle of the night, he cautiously sneaked into the emperor's study, it was pitch black inside, and he couldn't help but have a headache, this place is so big, where will the father put the ashes?
He searched all over but found no trace, then stopped and thought about it carefully, and secretly laughed at his stupidity, how could his father put such an important thing in a place where others could easily find it?
Will there be a secret room?
He had an idea, began to pay attention to some inconspicuous corners, and finally sat on the bed to rest because he was too tired, and inadvertently touched the pillow with his hand, and then the next second the mechanism was turned on.
Jin Zhen watched the secret room in front of him slowly open, and his heart was ecstatic, he was really lucky.
He lifted his foot and tried to go inside, but just then the door suddenly opened.
His heart suddenly tightened, and he looked around, flashing directly behind the screen.
The people from outside walked in, were surprised to see the door of the secret room opened, and then quickly searched the palace.
Jin Zhen was very flexible and carefully avoided him. But at this moment, some guards came in from outside, "Why haven't you come out yet, is there something abnormal?"
"There are people in this temple!"
"What?"
Everyone got nervous and started searching around.
"The prince specially explained that now he has to come to inspect every night after the shift change, just to avoid the recurrence of what happened last time. We all need to be vigilant, or we won't be able to save our lives!"
Jin Zhen saw that it was very unfavorable to him now, and it was not a way to continue to stay like this, and sooner or later he would be discovered by them.
So he gritted his teeth and turned his heart sideways, and ran out with all his strength.
Naturally, his actions attracted the attention of the guards, and the next moment someone shouted "Catch the assassin" and ran for him.
Of course, Jin Zhen couldn't outrun them, and he sighed in his heart, "It seems that I am really lucky tonight." ”
As everyone knows, this is actually a trap tailored by others for him, step by step, just waiting for him to jump in slowly.
After Jin Zhen was caught, all the guards were surprised, and they didn't know what to do for a while, the emperor was sick now, and it was so late, so after thinking about it, he decided to inform the prince first.
So he was quickly sent to Jin Qiao.
Jin Qiao looked very surprised, looked at him and said, "Ninth brother, how could it be you?"
Then he looked sternly at the guards who escorted him, "Are you mistaken, how could the assassin capture the Nine Emperor Princes?!"
The guards knelt on the ground and reported: "Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, the subordinates changed shifts and inspected as usual, and they did find that His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes were suspiciously lurking in the emperor's study, and the subordinates didn't know why His Royal Highness the Nine Emperors appeared there in the middle of the night. ”
"Oh, the ninth brother, you can tell it yourself, if there is a misunderstanding, it is better to make it clear as soon as possible. Father is now recuperating in the Heart Cultivation Palace, you probably forgot about it and went to the imperial study to see him, right?"
It's hard for people to say this without knowing that he did it on purpose, who would have seen his own father wearing a night suit?
Jin Zhen didn't answer directly, but said faintly, "Brother Huang, you can't speak clearly, I didn't hear what you were talking about." ”
As soon as these words came out, all the subordinates gasped, I really don't know where His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes got the courage to dare to pluck the hair on the tiger's head openly.
Jin Qiao didn't want Jin Zhen, who was submissive to him in the past, to suddenly say such a thing, he was very angry, and he didn't plan to waste time with him anymore.
"Jin Zhen, this prince gave you a chance to explain, who knows that not only do you not cooperate, but you still look like you don't care now, since that's the case, don't blame me for being an unsympathetic brother. Lock up the Nine Emperor Princes for this prince, and wait for this prince to return to his father tomorrow before he will deal with it, before that, you have to entertain the Nine Emperor Princes well, understand?!"
"Yes!
When Jin Zhen was taken away, a smug smile flashed at the corner of Jin Qiao's mouth, even if he had received the favor of his father, in the end, he was not trampled under his feet, no one in this world could challenge his authority, and he should not be pulled down from the position of the crown prince.
After dealing with this matter, Jin Qiao lay on the bed and slept well, in the dream, he cut off the heads of Jin Zhen and Jin Ling, and he himself, sitting on the throne and looking down on the world.
After waking up the next day, he remembered this dream, and the smile on the corner of his mouth couldn't be hidden, such a day would not be far away.
Following.
After Jin Qiao woke up, he didn't mention Jin Zhen, but went to serve as if nothing had happened, and he didn't mention last night's incident to Jin Xiang, and even ordered people who knew about it to shut up.
Compared with poking this matter out directly, Jin Qiao has a better plan.
For example, to blackmail Jin Ling.
Recently, he finally sorted out his thoughts, thinking that so many of his gambling houses have been destroyed, which is definitely not a coincidence. So he ordered someone to spread the news of what happened last night to the gambling house, and informed Jin Ling that if he wanted to save Jin Zhen, he would come out to see him.
A lot of things should be settled, he knows that the longer it drags on, it won't be good for him, and it's better to break it off this morning.
Besides, now that Jin Ling is secretly in the dark, he is in the light, and he doesn't know what kind of situation he is in now, and it is not good for him at all.
Sitting back and waiting is not his style. (To be continued.) )
