Chapter 104 Planting Blame
"No, the prince and everyone have to escort his sister down the mountain, but I'm afraid that it will be tiring and tiring, and there will be a lot of troubles on the way, how can I trouble my concubine again?" Jing Shengyan raised his head abruptly at this time, with tears in his eyes, and looked at the royal king Chu Chu and said pitifully.
"Although the concubine body is not pregnant with the prince's child, the heart of the concubine body is still in the body. Now the concubine body is a troublesome matter, and the concubine body knows it herself. In order not to add trouble to the prince and the third sister, the concubine quietly followed behind the convoy, that is. ”
Hearing this, Jing Shengwu glanced at her with some surprise. This Jing Shengyan has always been an arrogant master, but now he can bow his head and follow behind the guard of honor? Although her behavior just now was afraid that the king felt disgusted, but in the end, her position was still there.
Jing Shengwu doesn't believe it, if this Jing Shengyan loses face, the king can endure it, after all, the people in this royal family naturally value face, if this makes Jing Shengyan quietly follow at the end of the honor guard, doesn't it mean that she, the side concubine, has not yet gained face from the people around her?
"Now that the concubine is unwell, the journey down the mountain is too rugged, how can she make the concubine's sick body condescend to the end of the honor guard? If the side concubine doesn't dislike it, the purple sedan chair carried by these sixteen people can just let the side concubine sit down the mountain, so as to reduce the bumps on the road. ”
As soon as Jing Shengwu finished speaking, the royal king immediately stepped forward and said: "Changle, no, this sedan chair was let by your father, how can you give it to Sheng Yan?" ”
Jing Zhengming also stroked his beard next to him and said, "Sheng Wu, although you have the heart to care for Sheng Yan, but this sedan chair really can't let Sheng Yan sit down, after all, now worship the mountain, and it is your main business, how can you let Sheng Yan sit on it instead of you?" ”
Hearing this, Jing Shengwu sneered in his heart. Although Jing Zhengming has a loving face and looks very considerate of himself, every word is reminding others. This sedan chair was given to her by herself in the face of the side concubine, not in the eyes of other sisters.
Sure enough, this person's heart is still biased, even if his father was responsible for his own mother's cold first snow. Now that I have spent more than 20 years with this Sun family, I have already forgotten all about the cold and early snow of that year, right? Even with the general of his own palace, this palace is not as important as Sister Jing Shengyan and Sister Jing Shengyu.
Otherwise, how could he maintain this Jing Shengyan in every possible way at this time, instead of helping Jing Shengyan to calculate himself everywhere?
"What did my father say? Concubine Jing and I are sisters in the end, and now that she is not in good health, how can I bear to let her sit in that small sedan chair and suffer from the bumpy mountain road? ”
Jing Shengwu said skillfully, blocking the rest of Jing Zhengming's words in his stomach, seeing that Jing Shengwu was so knowledgeable and cared about people, a trace of approval flashed in the king's eyes.
He knew the contradictions in the Jing Mansion in the early years, although the affairs between the high-ranking families were secrets, but the hands and eyes of this royal king were naturally all over the world. If you want to know about the affairs of the Hou of Qi'an, it is just a breeze.
Besides, this Jing Shengwu and Jing Shengyan were not born to the same mother, and the Sun family was also very unkind to Jing Shengwu, and even this Jing Shengyan was disgusted with her. In the past, her life in Jingfu was not easy, and she acted in a big drama of framing last time.
But today, she didn't care about Jing Shengyan's actions the day before yesterday, but gave her own sedan chair to the sick Jing Shengyan, which made the king can't help but narrow his eyes.
Only such a woman who does not care about her past suspicions is the most suitable candidate for the princess!
looked at the graceful figure, and indifferently got on Jing Shengyan's four-person small sedan chair. Jing Shengwu, who followed behind, flashed a look of determination in the king's eyes.
This woman, he's going to decide!
"Concubine Fang, how is this good. Now you sit on the chariot carried by these sixteen people, and wait for the next time, if the palanquin man loses his foot, or if the dead man does something, what will be good? Pomegranate followed closely behind the sedan chair and said next to Jing Shengyan.
Jing Shengyan was also anxious on the sedan chair, his forehead was sweating, and he tightly twisted the handkerchief in his hand. I don't know what to do.
On this road, the dead man has been ambushed and trapped, and the lightest result is that the sedan chair man lost his foot, and fell on the rock, and injured himself. If this falls on the rocks, it will be the pain of flesh and skin at most; What if you fall off a cliff?
I'm afraid that today, her Jing Shengyan's life will be lost here!
"What to do, how do I know what to do!" Jing Shengyan saw that the most rugged mountain road in the Dark Dragon Mountain was in front of him, and said anxiously at the moment.
The sedan chair carried by these sixteen people was at the forefront of the guard of honor. So wait for that trap, it's the first thing she can experience!
"That's it, I can't care so much!" Seeing that the sedan chair man was about to step on the place where the trap was located carrying the sedan chair, Jing Shengyan suddenly covered his stomach and shouted, "Ouch, it hurts me to death!" ”
While screaming, she fell down and rolled down towards the outside of the sedan chair, which directly threw her body off the sedan chair carried by the sixteen people, which was not painful, and the sharp pain in her feet and neck made Jing Shengyan's face pale, and she couldn't get up on the ground immediately.
Feeling the burning pain on his feet and neck, as well as the pain of a few obvious abrasions on his delicate arms, Jing Shengyan only hated Jing Shengwu to the extreme, but on his face, he only shouted, "Ah, it hurts me to death!" ”
"What's the matter, how can you fall off that sedan chair?" The royal king was the first to hear Jing Shengyan's shout, and he was originally behind the guard of honor, and he followed Jing Shengwu in a sedan chair, so he immediately stepped forward and ran to Jing Shengyan's side.
Before the king dismounted and helped Jing Shengyan up from the ground, he heard the "boom!" in front of him. With a loud bang, the sedan chair tumbled down the mountain!
"Protect, protect Princess Houye!" In the chaos, the guards hurriedly stepped forward and protected Jing Shengwu, Jing Zhengming and the royal king, including Jing Shengyan, who was lying on the ground and had not yet gotten up, in the center of the circle.
A few guards hurriedly stepped forward and inspected the place where the sedan chair in front of them had an accident. I saw that on the already steep road ahead, I don't know when there were a lot of potholes, just now the sedan chair drivers just stepped on this pothole, fell down and turned the sedan chair over.
But because the sedan chair was connected with the body of the sedan chair driver with red silk, it was very strong, so in that hurry, three sedan chair drivers didn't have time to untie the red silk, and followed the sedan chair and fell down the Dark Dragon Mountain.
This Dark Dragon Mountain is so high that it falls. I'm afraid that if it's a human being, it won't live.
Yuwang and Jing Zhengming were silent, they didn't expect to encounter such a thing on the way down the mountain. Fortunately, this Jing Shengyan actually fell from the sedan chair at a critical moment, if not, she was afraid that she would follow the sedan chair and fall off the cliff.
Only Jing Shengwu stared at a hint of luck in Jing Shengyan's pale face. narrowed his eyes thoughtfully, but did not speak.
The royal king hurriedly stepped forward and helped Jing Shengyan up from the ground, "How is it, your body is okay?" ”
"Lord Wang, the concubine only feels unbearable pain in her abdomen. Fang just rolled down from the sedan chair. Jing Shengyan covered his lower abdomen in pain, and said with a pale face.
"Fortunately, the side concubine couldn't help but roll down in pain, otherwise, what if she fell down with this sedan chair?" Pomegranate stepped forward and gently knocked off the dust on Jing Shengyan's body, and when he saw the abrasions on Jing Shengyan's body, there were even some tears in his eyes.
"I don't know if this princess did it on purpose, I already knew that there was a murderous opportunity on this road, so I let the side concubine sit in this sedan chair instead of you, wouldn't it be a deliberate attempt to kill the side concubine?"
Pomegranate said this. Jing Shengyan immediately scolded loudly, "Shut up! How can you speculate about the princess? ”
Everyone in the field calmed down suddenly, and everyone's eyes looked strangely at the sedan chair behind them.
Jing Shengyan's words are extremely ingenious, how can you guess about the princess? It is natural to drive everyone's minds.
It is also said that Jing Shengwu and Jing Shengyan have always been at odds, can she kindly give this sedan chair to Jing Shengyan? If it weren't for Jing Shengyan's sudden abdominal pain and falling down on the road, I am afraid that he would have fallen to pieces with the sedan chair and would have the same fate as the three sedan chair drivers.
Jing Shengwu sat in the sedan chair and sneered, it seems that these four sisters really gave themselves a big gift. If she were sitting in the sedan chair. I'm afraid that I have already been poisoned by Jing Shengyan, right? Although he was disdainful in his heart, Jing Shengwu quickly got off the sedan chair, turned pale, and ran to the front of the guard of honor.
"Side concubine. Are you alright? Before Jing Shengwu arrived at Jing Shengyan's side, tears rolled down, and when she saw Jing Shengyan standing safe and sound, she covered her heart and sighed with relief.
"It's okay, it's okay, you're scaring me!"
Look at this Jing Shengwu's caring look for that Jing Shengyan. The conjecture in everyone's hearts has come to an end, could it be that the third young lady who looked grief-stricken and worried, Princess Changle, would really do something to Jing Shengyan?
Not to mention that they are sisters in the first place, no matter how big the hatred is, it will not be a life-and-death hatred, that is, this Jing Shengyan is already the side concubine of the king, and Jing Shengwu has also been given the title of princess, the two can be said to be well water and do not commit river water, how can they still design to murder their sister?
Thinking of this, Jing Zhengming and the royal king looked at the rugged mountain road again, and heard that every time they went up the mountain on this Dark Dragon Mountain, there would be an accident, and some lives would be lost, and it was just an accident this time.
"The princess ran over in such a hurry, I'm afraid that it was because our side concubine died!" Pomegranate stared at Jing Shengwu coldly, with tears in his eyes, but the words he said made Jing Zhengming and the royal king cold.
Even if Jing Shengwu really did it, but now they are in this royal honor guard, Pomegranate is a subordinate, the most humble Cunzài, how can they question a princess like Jing Shengwu?
"Pomegranate!" The king said coldly, "If you say one more word, this king will cut out your tongue now!" ”
Hearing this, Pomegranate stopped, lowered his head as if he was very aggrieved, and wiped his tears.
"Let's not mention the sisterhood between me and the side concubine, just say that I and the side concubine, but what kind of life and death enmity makes me kill her at any cost?"
Jing Shengwu had tears in his eyes, straightened his spine, and looked at Jing Zhengming and Chu Yu and said without flinching. As soon as she said this, both of them lowered their heads slightly.
Just now, they were indeed suspicious of Jing Shengwu because of Pomegranate's words. But Jing Shengwu's questioning words came out, but it made the king and Jing Zhengming feel as if they had been poured a basin of cold water on their heads, not to mention this private blood relationship, Jing Shengwu had no reason to kill Jing Shengyan.
"Besides, Sheng Wu was originally a weak woman in the boudoir, how could she have such a vicious heart to kill her own sister? It's just that Sheng Wu looked at the concubine's body and was unhappy, so he gave her his own sedan chair to her, so that she could suffer less bumps on this mountain road, how could she be unpredictable? ”
"I've been in my tent since I went up to this Dark Dragon Mountain last night, and I haven't come out at all; The three maidservants beside me, Xueyue, Fengyue and Leng Yu, have never descended the mountain, and have been waiting outside my tent all night for many years, have you seen me do anything suspicious? ”
Speaking of this, Jing Shengwu's eyes turned to the long man who had been silent behind Jing Zhengming, waiting for him to speak. Seeing that everyone's eyes were on their own bodies, Chang Nian's heart sank, and he immediately clenched his fists and said, "Last night, I served the orders of the Hou Ye to protect the princess's tent, and there was indeed no one in or out. ”
"In this way, I can't tell the prophet, why did I deliberately murder my own sister?"
"The princess is really too good-natured, if this is in the palace, a side concubine's maid dares to be so rude, I am afraid that she has already been sent to serve in the Shen Criminal Division, where can this little girl be allowed to stand here well?"
At this time, Leng Yu also walked up from behind Jing Shengwu, stared at the pomegranate with cold eyes, and said coldly.
Jing Zhengming and Chu Yu only then remembered that the Leng Yu in front of them was the aunt in the palace, and the etiquette regulations were the most complete.
"The slave maid has always heard rumors in the palace that this royal lord knows the etiquette regulations the most, but now the maid of a small royal mansion is still the maid next to the side concubine, but she does not know the etiquette, it seems that the side concubine is also negligent."
Leng Yu didn't care about the sneering faces of the imperial chef and Jing Zhengming next to him, and then said, "I think that when the slave maid returns to the palace to resume her life, you should carefully consider what you want to say to Your Majesty and the queen mother." This princess is kind-hearted and can tolerate such a slave bullying her master, but there is no room for sand in the eyes of the mother! ”
As soon as these words came out, even Chu Yu's heart also beat a drum. Over the years, he has been raised by the queen's side, and he knows the queen's temperament, which seems to be benevolent, but in fact he is the most scheming.
And at the moment, he is the most promising person among the princes to inherit the unification, but who can dominate the world in the end depends on the meaning of the one on the dragon chair. If this Leng Yu female official was allowed to meet him, he said that the people in his mansion were lost in front of others, which caused His Majesty to be dissatisfied......
Thinking of King Xiang, who had a hot temper and few people in the court to support him, but who also had a lot of power behind him, the royal king's face became gloomy. He kicked the pomegranate out from behind Jing Shengyan: "What Aunt Leng Yu said is that this maid will also teach her aunt to punish." (To be continued.) )
