Chapter 218: Exile
Chi Bi smiled, looked at Xiao Lei with a strange face, and only felt strange in his heart, and suddenly had an ominous feeling for no reason, but he still stubbornly walked in front of Xiao Lei, and said calmly, "His Royal Highness the Prince, it's early in the morning, you can get up!"
Xiao Lei glanced at Chi Bi, who was standing in front of him, a little uneasy, but he didn't say anything, just smiled faintly, and then said quietly, "Miss Chi Bi has heard that the cell was broken into last night, and there is news that the prisoner escaped?"
It's just that when Chi Bi's stunned expression fell in Xiao Lei's eyes, he still looked calm, as if such a reaction was expected, hooked the corners of his mouth, and said with a smile, "Miss Chi Bi don't worry, it's just a prisoner who escaped, but it's already wanted, I believe that it will be arrested if it doesn't take place, but there is one thing that this king thinks is strange, now Rong Chen Rong Gongzi is also locked up in the yamen, shouldn't Miss Chi Bi want to ask about Rong Gongzi's situation?" Why doesn't he seem to care about Rong Gongzi at all? Could it be that the girl doesn't worry about him anymore?"
Xiao Lei's words obviously had a deep meaning, Chi Bi's body was shocked, but he quickly reflected it, and pretended to smile calmly, "What did the prince say, how could Chi Bi not care about Rong Chen, but in the cell, it was Prince Ning's person who guarded Rong Chen, and he was the most heavily guarded, even a fly couldn't fly in, how could he say that he would escape!" Chi Bi clenched a corner when he said this, and his face still pretended to be calm. It's just that his legs are still trembling faintly, and if it takes a little longer, I'm afraid that big sweat will fall down from his forehead.
"If Miss Chibi really thinks so. I'm afraid I'm going to be disappointed. However, Xiao Lei naturally didn't let Chi Bi go so quickly, he just got up slowly. The knuckled fingers lifted Chi Bi's chin, forcing her originally flickering eyes to meet her cold and deep eyes, "The prisoner who escaped last night is Rong Chen Rong Gongzi, can this king ask if this matter has anything to do with the girl?"
However, Rong Chen's voice just fell. Chi Bi's eyes widened suddenly, and his face was even more panicked, "Rong Chen!? To be able to rescue him from the hands of Prince Ning's guards, why did he save Rong Chen!Then is he still alive now!What if something happens!" When Chi Bi said this, he was already more and more excited, and his hands suddenly clasped Xiao Lei's wrists tightly, and his eyes widened. Suddenly, he showed a look of disbelief, and his lips trembled, looking scared and worried, but it covered up his previous panic. Xiao Lei looked at Chi Bi like this, and seemed to think of something. But he didn't say anything, the original coldness in his eyes slowly faded, and a pair of hands gently swept over Chi Bi's fair and smooth cheeks, and attached it to Chi Bi's ear, and whispered, "You must know that no matter what this king does, it is for your good." ”
As he spoke, he didn't care about Chi Bi's really stunned expression, but left slowly, and Chi Bi stood in place stunned, just watching Xiao Lei's back disappear into her eyes, but her eyes were braided.
And in King Ning's mansion, Zhanyun came back with a wanted warrant. Xiao Lei's actions were really fast, although Rong Chen was rescued from the yamen, and now he is also considered to be guilty, and it is such a serious crime, now the court only thinks that Rong Chen is afraid of crime and absconds, if he is caught, whether he is convicted or not, he will be dealt with as a capital crime.
Mu Ran heard the news, but didn't say anything, just probed Rongchen's forehead, last night's fever has subsided, the serious wound has suppurated, and the non-serious ones have scabbed, but because of the serious injury and the continuous rush, this will be confused and has been in a state of unconsciousness. Wang Ye Ning looked at Rong Chen like this, and sighed that the child was innocent after all, and he was suffering from him. ”
"What is the purpose of the prince coming to Yuecheng?" Mu Ran did not take the prince's words, but asked instead, she naturally knew that Xiao Lei, as a dignified prince, would naturally not come to Yuecheng for no reason, if he was discovered by Liu Jun because of his previous harm to the county lord, he would not have gone to Yuecheng in order to chase and kill Liu Jun, Mu Ran believed that there was naturally a bigger conspiracy, not just to welcome the prince, but a conspiracy against everyone, Mu Ran thought of this, and couldn't help but take a deep breath.
But at this time, I only heard Prince Ning say again, "The prince is a man, and his heart is heavy, although the emperor is now in his prime, but the prince already has his own party above the court, and has also cultivated a large number of ministers who serve him, and the emperor's position is in jeopardy. ”
Prince Ning seemed to have thought about it for a long time before telling Mu Ran about this matter, but Mu Ran was still puzzled, " Now Xiao Lei is already the crown prince, naturally, and then he will inherit the emperor's position logically, why should he work so hard now, as far as I know, the emperor does not have many sons, except for Xiao Lei, the other princes are still young and cannot take on big responsibilities, he wants to be the emperor, it seems to be much easier than coming all the way to Yuecheng, secretly murdering the emperor, and then growing up smoothly to become the new master. ”
What Mu Ran said seemed to be correct at first glance, but Prince Ning just smiled bitterly and shook his head, after all, Mu Ran girl is not a member of the palace, so naturally she doesn't know, politics is always much more complicated than what you think, above the court, in addition to the princelings, there is also the existence of royalists, and there are so many loyal ministers around the emperor, who want to poison under his nose, it is originally more difficult than ascending to the sky at first sight, so he just said, " It would be good if the emperor really didn't have a competent prince, but the emperor also had a prince who was the same age as the current prince and had been in exile since childhood, and recently I heard that the prince was in Yuecheng. ”
In this way, Mu Ran seems to have finally understood why Xiao Lei came to Yuecheng, but it was just ......
"A prince in exile in the people, life and death are uncertain, even if he is still alive, he is just a common man in the market, the prince is the prince after all, he has lived in the palace since he was a child, and he also understands the deceit of the palace, why does the emperor think that such a prince can inherit the great cause and become the respect of a country?!"
"It's not that the prince was found among the people. Lord Ning stroked the beard on his chin, and looked at Mu Ran's eyes full of approval, after all, it was not easy for a young girl to think of so much.
And Mu Ran seemed to have finally thought of something at this time, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said, "Is it possible, the emperor wants to find a person who can suppress the prince, no matter whether the person he is looking for can become the future emperor, at least the prince will not be a monopoly, and it will shake the foundation of the princelings, the emperor is like this, in fact, he is secretly cultivating a new emperor, but in order to keep the person he chooses in his heart safe, he can only use this trick!"
Mu Ran finished saying this with an indifferent expression, and the meaning of approval in Prince Ning's eyes became deeper, just like what Mu Ran said, everything was designed by the emperor, the prince thought he was strategizing, but he didn't know that everything was under the control of the emperor, but he still rushed to this trap without hesitation.
"So the prince still needs to find the prince before the crown prince. Mu Ran said with a calm expression.
However, Prince Ning shook his head at this time, "It's useless, that prince is already dead." Who knew that when Prince Ning said this, his tone had already fallen silent, and Mu Ran listened to what Prince Ning said, his face was even more gloomy, but it was only fleeting, he just smiled, "The prince I found, why bother if it is true or false, anyway, it is just a disguise." ”
That's it, Wang Ye Ning suddenly raised his head, something flashed in his eyes, how did he not think of it, just like Mu Ran said, what is true or false?
Prince Ning was suddenly enlightened, but Mu Ran looked slightly stunned at this time, and he didn't know what he was thinking, but suddenly, Liu frowned slightly, "The prince is the prince after all, he is so cunning that he has destroyed all the evidence, even if we know that he is guilty, if we want to convict the prince, it will be even more difficult, not to mention that the prince will receive the criminal punishment he deserves, so even if we rescue Rong Chen, we can't touch the prince, right?"
Prince Ning was stunned, but no matter how much he hesitated, he could only nod his head, "Otherwise, the imperial brother would not rack his brains so much, if you want to deal with the prince, this road is a long way to go, I am afraid it is not easy to do, and the top priority now is to exonerate Prince Rong as soon as possible." "Obviously, Prince Ning had thought of this a long time ago, otherwise he wouldn't have tried his best to prevent them from participating in this matter.
But since things have come to such a point, even if it is to get justice for his daughter, Ning Wang Ye thought that he really couldn't sit idly by.
