Chapter 38: Imprisonment

The next day, the emperor retired from the court, and it was rare to have leisure and leisure, so he invited His Royal Highness King Yan to play together.

The red sun is in the sky, the green shade is in the ground, and the summer heat is thick.

In the Imperial Garden Pavilion, Gao Heng and Gao Yan sat face to face around the chessboard.

Gao Heng first raised his hand and dropped a son, and then asked slowly: "The third emperor brother returned to Beijing this time, can King Yan see it?" ”

"Back to the emperor, the emperor's brother returned to Beijing to be busy with other things, and I haven't met him yet."

"Oh? Is it. Gao Heng glanced up at him, saw that his expression was sincere, his eyes fell back to the chessboard, and he said unhurriedly: "I remember, you once said that the princess of Jin was saved by you?" ”

When Gao Yan heard this, he immediately put down the chess pieces in his hand and knelt down in front of him:

"Your Majesty, in fact, Princess Jin was not saved by me, and she once said this just to help the third emperor's brother marry the princess."

Gao Heng frowned when he heard this, and reprimanded: "Gao Yan, do you know that this is the crime of deceiving the king?!" ”

Gao Heng looked at Gao Yan, who bowed his head and was silent. Although he is the eldest prince, he has only held a nominal official position in the court for so many years, but he is still silent, and he has not expressed any dissatisfaction, which does not look like he has any ambitions.

And Gao Yan's words, Gao Heng naturally won't believe them all. If this is true, he may not know what happened back then, and he can use it for himself. If he was lying to himself, he would have to plan how to get rid of both of them together.

In any case, before dealing with King Jin, King Yan should be kept reads;.

Besides, Liu Chang's words can't be fully believed, who knows if the person Gao Xun married is really Lu Liren's daughter as he said? What he asked today was just to test it, Gao Heng weighed it in his heart, and after seeing Princess Jin with his own eyes, it was not too late to see what their purpose was.

Thinking of this, Gao Heng looked at his docile appearance, and waved his hand and said:

"That's it, you get up, I miss you as a brother, it's a kindness, don't pursue it for the time being."

"Your Majesty."

Gao Yan sat back with his head down, and as soon as he fell, he heard his father-in-law's voice in the distance:

"His Royal Highness the King of Jin has arrived—"

Early this morning, someone came to the palace of the king of Jin, saying that he invited the prince and the princess to go to the palace for the first time.

Gao Xun's heart sank, the emperor summoned them to the palace at this time, it must have been because of the concubine's miscarriage.

But this morning, Bai Sang's body suddenly felt unwell, and Gao Xun thought that it must have been rained and dyed with some cold air yesterday. Today's entry into the palace is sudden, if the emperor has any blame, Gao Xun naturally does not want Bai Sang to be implicated. Since this is the case, Gao Xun made a decision, told her to rest well in the mansion, and went into the palace alone.

After Gao Xun saluted in front of them and got up, Gao Heng looked at her, squinted his eyes and said, "Brother Huang came alone today?" ”

"The princess is in poor health, and it is really inconvenient to travel, so only the younger brother came here today, and I ask the emperor to forgive her sins."

Gao Heng's eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness, okay, you are a high inquiry, I don't know if your princess is really sick, or deliberately did not enter the palace? And he had even deeper doubts in his heart, if the princess of Jin was really Lu Liren's daughter, he didn't know if Gao Xun had evidence in his hand to murder the former emperor, so he could only turn around and say:

"The royal brother has been married for a long time, but I have only heard that Princess Jin looks like a fairy, but I have never really seen her appearance."

Gao Xun thought that Gao Heng would mention the matter of the General's Mansion, but he didn't want him to say that he wanted to see Princess Jin. The heart is tight, is it possible, Gao Heng is interested in Bai Sang?

"The emperor has won the award, the rumors are naturally not credible, and the insiders are just mediocre, and there is nothing to see."

These words obviously didn't want him to see this Jin princess, Gao Heng suddenly sank his face when he heard this, and Gao Yan seemed to slow down the atmosphere when he saw this, and quipped:

"I may not have seen the third emperor brother for a long time, since the emperor is interested, it is better for the three of us brothers to get together in the emperor's brother's mansion tomorrow, so that the emperor can meet the true face of the precious princess of the imperial brother, how about it?"

Gao Yan's words were exactly what Gao Heng wanted, he was quite suspicious, the more Gao Xun didn't want him to see him, the more he naturally wanted to see it as soon as possible. Sure enough, Gao Heng laughed when he heard this:

"Hahaha, that's exactly what I mean!"

At this point, there is no reason for Gao Xun. Although there was a smile on his face, his heart gradually sank.

The next day, at noon.

When the holy dragon stopped at the gate of the Jin Palace, Gao Yan had already arrived at the Jin Palace's hall and sat down.

And Bai Sang was rare to always hold Gao Xun's arm today, Gao Xun looked at the eldest brother who was staring at him and Bai Sang in front of him, and couldn't help grinning: "What's the matter?" It's sticky to me today. ”

Isn't she shy and tight in the eyes of outsiders on weekdays?

As soon as the sedan chair outside landed, Gonggong Li, who was following Gao Heng, shouted in the mansion with his throat raised:

"The emperor has arrived—"

Gao Xun and the three hurriedly went out.

After kneeling and saluting, Gao Xun looked up, but saw Gao Heng looking at Bai Sang intently.

The look in his eyes is even more unpredictable.

Gao Xun didn't like Gao Heng's staring at Bai Sang like this, thinking that it was also the three of them getting together, he was silent for a long time, then took a step forward, bowed his head and said:

"Your Majesty, I have prepared the dishes in the house, Bai Sang is infected with the wind and cold, and it is inconvenient to eat together, so it is better to ask her to go back to the house to rest first."

Gao Heng didn't answer, he still stared straight at the princess of Jin who was bowing her head in front of him for a long time, until Gao Xun couldn't help frowning, and was about to speak again, he squinted slightly and nodded.

Afterwards, the three of them entered the house together, and Su Xin also accompanied the princess back to the room, and just after taking a few steps, Bai Sang stopped suddenly and said to her: "Su Xin, I remember that the prince also prepared a pot of aged Fen wine before, you go and bring it to their room." ”

"Eh, then you can go back to the house first, and I'll go."

Frangipani answered, turned her head and ran towards the kitchen.

sent the wine into the prince's room, and when she came out again with the teacup, she saw Bai Sang still standing in the courtyard.

"Madam, why don't you go back to your room?"

Su Xin walked over, and when she saw Bai Sang's rare paleness, she became more and more worried, if something happened, the prince would blame her again. She stepped forward and said:

"Madam, you better go back to your room and rest, this day is poisonous-"

"Bell!"

Suddenly, there was a small noise in the room behind him, as if something had fallen to the ground.

Su Xin was stunned for a moment, and she didn't know what was going on inside. was about to continue Fang Cai's words, but he saw that the princess in front of him had begun to tremble slightly, and in the next second, he heard the voice of Lord Yan.

"Someone!"

Gonggong Li, who was guarding the door, naturally heard it, and immediately broke in with the guards when he heard the sound.

Frangipani also jumped "suddenly" when her heart landed.

"Your Majesty—"

"His Royal Highness the King of Jin killed the king and killed his brother! The emperor is dead, the emperor is dead! ”

"Smack!"

The bearing plate in Frangipani's hand fell straight to the ground.

She was only stunned there, and let the tea cup and jade cup on the plate have scattered all over the place.

The sun outside was still a little dazzling.

Bai Sang turned his back, closed his eyes, and tears rained down.
