Chapter Twenty-Four: The Sin of Destroying the Country and Destroying the Family is in the Heavy Pupil

Half a month has passed, and the champion Xiao Yinshen has already been tried by the Tingwei Mansion, but judging from his confession, he has no connection with King Qinghe. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Rao is like this, in the eyes of those who care, King Qinghe was still angered by His Majesty, and even Suchi became one of the witnesses.

That day, Su Chi went to the palace to pay homage to the concubine, and when he passed by His Majesty's Chongming Palace, he saw a person in a purple python robe from a distance, kneeling on the ground, the person's upper body stood upright, because he knelt for too long and trembled slightly intermittently, he was very eye-catching in the vermilion palace, but no one dared to take a look at the palace maids and eunuchs who came and went. Rao is eunuch beside him urged, but Su Chi couldn't help but glance back.

The moment Su Chi turned around, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was coming out of the Chongming Palace, and Su Chi asked the little eunuch of the concubine to go back first, saying that she would delay for a while and then go, and the prince would come over quickly.

There weren't many people around, so Su Chi waited until the prince walked next to her before he called, "Brother Prince." ”

"I knew that you were going to enter the palace today, and I originally thought that I would invite you to the East Palace after you saw the concubine. "Su Chi hasn't entered the palace for a while, although the crown prince Ning Lizhen can sometimes see her outside the palace, but it is not as convenient as the palace.

"At this time, the prince's brother should naturally listen to the hadith in the Chongming Temple. "Su Chi knew that after the early dynasty, the emperor would discuss state affairs with the ministers of the cabinet in the Chongming Palace, and Su Yuan should also be there.

"There's nothing going on with my father these days, and there is still a little time like this. When Ning Lizhen saw Su Chi outside the Chongming Palace, he just glanced at her a few more times. It wasn't until Su Chi stopped outside the door that Ning Lizhen quietly withdrew from the Chongming Palace.

Su Chi's eyes inadvertently glanced at the man's purple python robe, and the prince also looked over when he saw this: "That's the Third Emperor Brother, I should have taken you to see it." When the time is right next time, Lone will introduce you to each other. ”

"King Qinghe, what's the matter?" asked Su Chi as he withdrew his gaze and asked in confusion.

"My father summoned him early in the morning, but I made the third emperor wait for a long time, I'm afraid it was still for the rumors outside. You hang out all day long, and you don't know anything outside?" Ning Lizhen didn't doubt him, but was used to making fun of her.

"Listening to Mr. Xie say something at the beginning and end, he is always half-understood, confused, and simply doesn't listen. In the eyes of everyone, Su Chi has always been willing to be a deep lady. Moreover, this matter came from Su Yuan's plan, and the specific operation came from Ke Zheng, the Shaobao of the East Palace, and Su Chi didn't want to mention this topic with Ning Lizhen.

"It's been seven or eight hours since I knelt last night, and the second emperor brother and Gu have been persuaded to do so, but it's useless. When the father and emperor were angry, except for the concubine, other persuasion would only backfire. Ning Lizhen didn't know what to think of, and lowered her eyes.

"How long is this going to be kneeling?" Su Chi looked up at the sun. Seeing Ning Lizhen's expression, Su Chi probably understood: Ning Lizhen obviously disagreed with this matter, and it was no wonder

"You're always so kind, you have to worry about people if you recognize it or not. It would be good to wait for the father to dissipate his anger, and you still take it with you when you enter the palace?" The prince noticed that Dongyu was still holding the rabbit in his hand, with white fur and red eyes.

"I brought him to visit my aunt and meet my aunt's bunny. Su Chi raised his eyebrows, looking very interested, but the matter of King Qinghe was left behind by him.

"Okay, when you finish meeting your aunt, remember to come to the East Palace. ”

When Su Chi went to the concubine's Chongxi Palace, the palace maid said to let her wait, and the concubine was still in the dining room.

Chongxi Hall is the residence of the former emperor's concubine, and if you go back further, it is still the residence of the queen of the previous dynasty. The momentum is magnificent, with green tiles and red walls, and many pear trees are planted in the courtyard, and it is past the time for the pear blossoms to bloom. The concubine also likes camellias, there are a lot of them in and out of this courtyard, this is not a precious flower, but in recent years, flower farmers have shipped camellia to Jinling in order to please the concubine. The price of camellia has increased several times, but the concubine ordered that there will be no camellia outside the palace from next year.

When the concubine came in, the palace maid behind her still had a handful of camellia in her hand, and Su Chi was about to salute, but the concubine had already helped her up: "It's just in time, help me put these flowers up." "The concubine liked to prune the branches and leaves of the camellia and tie it with a red rope and insert it into a vase of water.

Su Chi first put the flower branches in a row, and talked to the concubine: "Since my aunt likes it, why don't you want the flowers sent from the palace next year?"

"Camellia grows in the mountain stream to have its graceful, noble and gorgeous posture, and the people who raise flowers have the greed for fame and fortune, but it is not beautiful. The concubine pruned the flower branches without distraction, and her red nails were long and gorgeous, as red as blood as this red palace dress. The concubine always didn't look at people when she cut the flower branches, but she just swept the rabbit behind Su Chi: "Do you still like that rabbit?" I heard that the prince had not domesticated it when he sent it over, why is he so well-behaved now?"

Su Chi smiled and handed the flower in his hand to the concubine, "It's easy to say, you can learn to be obedient when you're hungry." ”

The concubine's voice has always been clear and cold, "You are willing to do it, such a precious thing, and you are not afraid of starvation." You've just met the prince?"

"His Royal Highness King Qinghe is also there. Su Chi didn't look up, but the rope of the bouquet of flowers in his hand was a beat slower, and his voice was unhurried, but he was a little calmer than his aunt and nephew.

"See him later, stay away from him. The concubine's tone was categorical.

"Well, His Royal Highness King Qinghe was kneeling in Chongming Palace, and Su Chi did not step forward. Su Chi didn't expect the concubine to say it so bluntly, and was slightly stunned.

"Niangniang, the mint tea porridge is ready, and the slave maid will send it to His Majesty now?" Xingbai, the aunt in charge of the Chongxi Palace, stepped forward to ask.

"Aunt Xingbai, it's better not to go over now. The prince's brother said that His Majesty was angry, and no one could persuade him except his aunt. Su Chi moved his sedentary body, as if smiling.

"That's it, put it on the stove and simmer, and wait for the main palace to send it over in person. The concubine handed the vase in her hand to Xingbai.

"Then Ah Chi didn't dare to delay His Majesty's tea porridge, Ah Chi took his leave first. Soji had already stood up, as if he couldn't wait to leave.

"It's okay, it's good for you to sit more, I don't have anyone here except you. But if you want to go to the East Palace, I can't stop you, I just remember to ask the people from the East Palace to come over and say when you leave the palace. The concubine still didn't look like she was looking up.

Su Chi's face was slightly red, and he looked ashamed, and bowed his head and said "yes".

When Su Chi went out, the concubine picked up the booklet in Xingbai's hand and looked at it carefully: "Have you checked it out? That's all? Remember, there must not be any mistakes in the matter of Your Majesty's recipes." Bring your majesty's tea porridge over,"

Su Chi stayed in the East Palace for more than two hours, and the two of them played pitching pots with great interest. Pitching pots is a game often played among nobles in Beiwan, and most of the young men and women are hobbies, and Ning Lizhen is a variety of good players. Su Chi thought she was unlucky, and she didn't hit four or five times in a row, Ning Lizhen directly grabbed her wrist, turned it slightly, and handed it forward, and it happened to hit. Su Chi was so excited that he almost jumped up: "Hit, hit, I hit?"

Ning Lizhen was stunned, and didn't turn her face, but just lowered her head and took an arrow to her: "It's not a matter of luck, it's luck to miss one or two, and it's your own problem if you don't hit again." Your forearm is weak, the wrist steering should be more flexible, don't blindly use force, remember the feeling just now, and try again. ”

Su Chi caught a glimpse of Ning Lizhen secretly blushing, the Beiwan folk style is open, and there are not so many taboos between unmarried men and women, this kind of contact is not even overstepping, Su Chi threw the arrow again, but only touched the wine jug and popped it out.

Ning Lizhen picked it up and handed her one again: "It's just a little bit, try again?"

Su Chi was hit immediately, and before he had time to cheer, he heard a guard report at the door: "Your Highness, Your Majesty ordered His Royal Highness King Qinghe to go back to the palace to think about it, and he must not leave the palace for half a step without a call." ”

"So fast, the noble concubine went to the Chongming Palace?" Ning Lizhen motioned for Su Chi to continue, but her eyes were already locked on her.

"Back to Your Highness: Your Majesty is discussing state affairs, and the mother stayed for a while and left after delivering the meal. After the guard finished speaking, Ning Lizhen waved him down.

"Ah Chi and the noble concubine Niangniang mentioned the Third Emperor Brother?" Su Chi steadily threw the arrow into it, Ning Lizhen nodded in relief, and asked her about it.

"I just said it in passing. Su Chi doesn't like to lie to Ning Lizhen, Ning Lizhen is honest and sincere, and with him Su Chi also feels that he should be half a gentleman.

"Anyway, Ah Chi, you've done me a great favor again. This incident all started because of the East Palace, and the three emperor brothers were innocently implicated, and they couldn't help it in their lonely hearts. The vassals of the East Palace are all elders, and they plan for me in everything, and this kind of kindness cannot be repaid. On the public, this matter has nothing to do with the three emperor brothers; The rumors that the three emperor brothers and Xiao Yin were in cahoots in Jinling were rampant, but Donggong Gu couldn't argue between right and wrong. In the past, the emperor used to call the imperial doctor only once every ten days, but in the past six months, it has been missing once every five days, and the concubine persuaded her to be good for her father's health. Ning Lizhen squatted down to pick up the arrows that had been thrown outside by Su Chi just now, and her posture was calm.

Su Chi used to hear some people in the market talk that before His Majesty ascended the throne, Ning Congzhen, the king of Yu, was also a popular candidate for the prince, but His Majesty valued filial piety the most, so he chose the youngest Ning Lizhen. Now I hear that the prince Ning Lizhen's fist and filial piety are really moving. However, Su Chi never understood what was going on between Su Yuan and Ning Qiongzhen, the king of Qinghe, so that he wanted to be framed like this. "Brother Prince doesn't have to hide it from me, I know that this matter also has something to do with my father, so Brother Prince is not even an accomplice. It's just strange, I always feel that my father and His Royal Highness King Qinghe have a bit of a holiday?"

"I don't know about this matter, if you have to say the festival, maybe it's the eyes of the three emperor brothers! Although you are young, you shouldn't know what happened back then. When the third emperor brother was born, he was loved by the imperial grandfather because of his double pupils, and before his father ascended the throne, the queen mother went to Yun'en Temple to ask for a signature, and it was a sign. Later, the queen mother asked Master Juefeng of Yun'en Temple to interpret the document, and she actually said that the crime of destroying the country and overthrowing the family was in the heavy pupil. Later, Concubine Shu went down to the court as a concubine, and the queen mother took her place, and the relationship with this sign is not small. "Ning Lizhen doesn't mind that this is a royal secret, and the past is also told.
