Chapter 194: The Five Princes

The day after the eldest princess left, the general's mansion began to secretly prepare the wedding needs. Such a thing cannot be kept secret, so it is inevitable that it will still be known.

It's just that why General Zhenyuan's Mansion needs to prepare for the marriage has always been speculated.

Some people guess that Fang Jianzhang prepared for the marriage of Fang Xiaoyu and Ye Xici.

It is said that as a mother's family, in addition to waiting for the groom official to welcome the bride and return to the door on the day of marriage, there is no need to prepare so grandly. But some people speculate that it is because of the special situation in King An's mansion, and it is well known that King An has always disliked Ye Xici's son, so General Fang deliberately prepared more grandly for his daughter not to be wronged, this is for his daughter to press the scene, play a formation, and also to deter King An's mansion.

Some people also say that Fang Jianzhang wants to marry a bride, but although he guesses eight or nine, it is unknown which family's daughter he wants to marry.

In this era, men are heavens. Even if he is an old man in his seventies and eighties, as long as he has power and status, it is not surprising that he wants to marry a young and beautiful double ten bride.

Fang Jianzhang is in the prime of life, and he is still far away from the coffin, and it is not difficult to marry someone who is about the same age as his daughter, but there are so many daughters in the capital, and I have never heard of a young lady who has close contacts with the general's mansion recently, and I can't guess for a while.

In short, the General's Mansion is preparing for marriage, which is always true, and some people even guess if Fang Jianzhang is too anxious, his son Fang Haozhi is still young, so he is in a hurry to marry him a daughter-in-law?

Anyway, all kinds of speculation are overwhelming. For a while, rumors spread overwhelmingly.

But Fang Xiaoyu got up early in the morning, left the house before dawn, and went to the eldest princess's mansion.

The eldest princess has been married since she got married. He lived in the Pony Mansion. She originally had a house in the capital, and she rarely lived in the palace on weekdays, and she lived in this house.

Later, when she became married, she only had to live with the horses, and the house was deserted, except that it was often cleaned. It's been a long time since there's been a human habitation.

This time, the eldest princess wanted to open it, and if she wanted to remarry, it would be a little inconvenient to stay in the nunnery. So yesterday, the emperor sent someone to clean the house thoroughly, and the eldest princess had moved in that day.

Fang Xiaoyu left the house at this hour to hide people's eyes. It was still dark and there were not many people on the street. She asked the eldest princess for help yesterday, but she didn't expect the eldest princess to be fast. Someone sent her a letter last night. said that she had done the thing, and told her to come to the house tomorrow.

It is said that it is not yet dawn at this hour, and the daughter of which family does not dare to go out at this time, and it is said that she is not bold, even the gatekeeper in the house will never let her go.

The night is dark and windy, and a daughter's family sneaks out of the house, what good things can she do?

However, this situation is different in the Zhenyuan General's Mansion. Fang Xiaoyu's independence and assertiveness made Fang Jianzhang fully believe that she would never do anything insulting. He is even more afraid that his daughter will be robbed by someone, if someone can rob her. No matter how many guards you find, they will all go up and die.

Xie Yu stepped forward and knocked on the door. The concierge came to open the door with sleepiness in his eyes. When he saw Fang Xiaoyu's appearance, the man immediately sobered up a little, and hurriedly invited Fang Xiaoyu in, obviously, the eldest princess had already instructed in advance.

Fang Xiaoyu was led to a room, the room was very spacious, but the doors and windows were closed, and when she stepped through the door, Fang Xiaoyu saw that the eldest princess and another person were already waiting here.

In addition to the eldest princess, there was another person in the room, who was young, but his face was lifeless, obviously the weather was not cold, but a few ice flowers could be faintly seen on his eyebrows.

His hands were clenched tightly together, and he was covered with a very heavy coat, but even so, he still felt cold, and his whole body was huddled together, looking very painful.

"I brought it back for you yesterday. It's just that his condition seems to be a little inappropriate, his whole body is like a block of ice, without a little temperature, it looks like he has been poisoned. The eldest princess reminded.

"I know, I've heard someone mention that the poison in him should be the poison of the ice kiss that is famous on the poison list of the Great Zhou, and the poison is in the terminal stage, if he can't find the antidote, he will only slowly freeze from the inside to the outside, until it becomes a piece of ice that shatters when you slap it." Fang Xiaoyu's brows tightened. The poison on the fifth prince has reached the point where it can't be delayed any longer, but with such a big living person, the palace can't react at all?

"It's strange to say, Xiao Wu's body is extremely bad, and the kilometers are so transparent that everyone doesn't know it. There didn't seem to be any accident with the imperial brother, and he even thought that Xiao Wu was very healthy, and as soon as I proposed to take him out of the palace to ask about some things in the capital, the imperial brother did not refuse at all. But Xiao Wu is now the son of Mei Guifei, and she has to go to ask her for peace from time to time, she shouldn't know Xiao Wu's condition, even so, why did she hide the matter of the emperor's brother, and not announce that the imperial doctor would come to treat Xiao Wu? The eldest princess thought it was very strange.

She was entrusted by Fang Xiaoyu, hoping that she could take Xiao Wu out of the palace, so she asked the emperor to ask Xiao Wu to go out of the palace with her and live in the eldest princess's mansion for a few days, so as to tell her about the changes in the capital in the past eight years.

Because the reputation of the five princes outside these years is really unruly, and they are a little familiar with the capital and the towns around the capital, so the emperor agreed to this matter, and she easily took Xiao Wu out of the palace.

However, when she saw Xiao Wu's condition, she was not only startled, her face was pale, almost transparent, she couldn't see a trace of blood, and it was cold to the touch, she was not a living person, and some frost could be seen at the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, and the whole person looked like an ice sculpture full of morbid beauty.

A prince, or the adopted son of Concubine Mei, such a noble emperor, has become like this, why is there no imperial doctor to come to heal?

She felt something different at the time. I thought again, as the fifth prince, Fang Xiaoyu wanted to make an appointment to meet the previous one, but he was very generous and upright, so why did he have to beg her to take him out of the palace. So she sent someone to the general's mansion to post, and the post specifically mentioned it. asked her to come earlier, because she considered that Fang Xiaoyu and Xiao Wu's meeting could not be bumped into at will.

"The strangeness in his poison is not yet known, whether it was Mei Guifei's doing. The truth may only be known to the murderer himself. Fang Xiaoyu shook his head. Seeing that the fifth prince seemed to be very uncomfortable, he hurriedly stepped forward and tore off the thick coat that was draped on him, and put his palm on the back of his heart, slowly inputting some internal force for him to dissolve the cold ice in his body.

It's a pity that this poison is too ferocious, and a simple transition of internal force can only cure the symptoms. It can't be eradicated, and unless an antidote is found, it can only relieve a little bit of his pain at most.

"Don't worry. I have ordered someone to find the antidote, and it will not take long for you to be cured, so you must support it now. Don't give up easily. Fang Xiaoyu entered the internal force for the five princes. While comforting.

Her instinct told her that the reason why the Five Princes were poisoned and then came to her for help must have something to do with her.

The fifth prince closed his eyes, and the already numbing coldness on his body was somewhat relieved. There was a warm breath in his body trying to melt the frozen ice, and he finally felt some consciousness regained.

The eldest princess hurriedly ordered two more braziers to be added to the house, at this time it was completely for the sake of the five princes, but she didn't see that the eldest princess had been sweating a little bit by the heat.

"How do you feel?" Although the eldest princess is not very close to the fifth prince. But after all, he is the biological son of her royal brother, even if the status of the biological mother is low. But she didn't care about that. Perhaps there is no one in the entire palace who knows this feeling better than her, and would rather marry a peasant family than be a court wife. How many people are scrambling to squeeze into the huge cage of the palace, and how many birds in the cage can't wait to yearn for the free sky outside the palace.

If she has a son, no matter what his identity is, it is a hundred times more important than anything else to live peacefully with him.

"It's better." The five princes are still weak. Although the body can feel a trace of warmth again, after all, the cold is still the main one. The numbness that had been frozen was now regained a little warmth, and the body's reaction was even stronger.

"Who poisoned you? And who is the person who is spying on you behind your back? Fang Xiaoyu silently withdrew his palm and asked.

The fifth prince glanced at Fang Xiaoyu with a complicated expression, and said, "It's just that he is in a hurry to go to the doctor...... That's why I looked for you, I didn't think you were really as extraordinary as the rumors, and you could really help me......"

The words of the fifth prince were intermittent, but they made Fang Xiaoyu frown.

If the fifth prince only came to her because she was sick and rushed to the doctor, does that mean that at the beginning, the note of 'being at ease with the situation' was not given to her?

And for whom?

The cowhide related to Jian An, the truth of Jian An's death recorded above, it should be given to people related to Ye Xici.

"Ye Xiqi is not in the capital, the prince is entangled in things, and the person who can be entrusted with peace of mind can't think of anyone else except you." The fifth prince trembled, wrapped the coat that was originally torn off by Fang Xiaoyu tightly, and continued: "I can see that Ye Xici treats you differently, I was already cold and poisonous at that time, so I am afraid that I will not be able to wait for Ye Xici to come back, so I will give you a hint." It's just that...... It's just that I don't fully trust you, so I wrote the hint vaguely, thinking that if you can find the clue in the note, it is fate...... If so...... No, I will write the truth elsewhere, and I can only rely on God to decide if I can let Ye Xici see ......"

"How do you know where Princess Ann's cowhide is? Also, who poisoned you? Did you know you were poisoned at the time? Fang Xiaoyu couldn't help asking.

"I don't know how much I have visited in the Qinglou Willow Lane in the capital, and the Wanghualou is just one of them. It was my second brother who took me there, and I became a frequent visitor here. The fifth prince said in a gloomy tone: "When I was able to find the secret, it was just to make the beauty smile, under the moontop treetops, no one played the piano in the window, so I played the flute outside the window, and the piano and flute ensemble played a wonderful story." Therefore, I noticed something unusual outside the window, and in the dead of night, when the girls in the building were resting, I took it out and looked at it. Who knew that you would see such a shocking story? I already have my heart set on the prince's brother, and Ye Xici has helped me take revenge, and I don't know how to mention this matter to him, so I keep delaying it. ”

The fifth prince showed a little guilt on his face, and said: "I originally wanted to investigate it myself, and if there is progress, it will not be too late to talk to him." It's just that the more you track down, the bigger the involvement. And I seem to have been spotted somewhere, and before I knew it, I was poisoned. ”

"At first, I didn't suspect it, but I didn't have much abnormality in my body, but I occasionally felt chills, and I thought it was caused by the weather getting cooler or infected with wind chill. It's just that gradually, my body is getting colder and colder, as if my internal organs are about to freeze into ice, and I know that I must have been poisoned. ”

"It's just that Ye Xiqi was not in the capital at that time, and the prince was also entangled in things and couldn't see you, so he wanted to talk to you, but the people in your house said that you were sick and couldn't see each other. The matter has been dragged on. Until the last time I saw you in the palace, I wrote a note improvised and secretly stuffed it into your hand, I don't want to, just a few words, but I really let you find the secret thing. It can be seen that everything is providential. The Fifth Prince blinked, and a small piece of ice crystal that was about to melt at the eyelashes fell onto the table, instantly turning into a trail of water.

No wonder the note was only four words, but it was written crookedly.

Thinking about it, he didn't expect that he would suddenly enter the palace, and then after seeing her, he saw that she was going in the direction of the prince's east palace, so he hurriedly found a pen and paper, and because of the poison of the ice kiss in his body, he shivered with cold, so he wrote the word crookedly. Then he deliberately went around to the place where he had to leave the East Palace, seemingly teasing her, but in fact secretly stuffed the note into her hand. And there is someone watching behind him, he must be quick and not show flaws, otherwise not only will he not be able to convey the news, but he may also cause her unwarranted disasters.

I'm afraid that he was also afraid of being discovered by the person who was watching, so he only wrote a few words, so that even if he was discovered, if he didn't know why, he might let her escape.

Fang Xiaoyu glanced at the fifth prince. Although he said that he gave such a vague hint because he couldn't trust her, if he really couldn't trust her, he shouldn't have given her a hint in the first place. I'm afraid there is also a bit of a desire to protect him.

The fifth prince coughed a few times, his face suddenly changed in shock, and the horror was completely undisguised: "Oh no, I was in a daze before, and I completely forgot about the person who watched me." Now that I'm in the Eldest Princess's Mansion, if that person thinks you're in touch with me and does harm......"

The martial arts of the person who watched him was very high, and his methods were even more cruel. The little palace maid in his palace just inadvertently saw him shivering from the cold and wanted to go to the imperial doctor to help him heal, but he was wiped on the neck by the other party without mercy. Such a person, if it involves Fang Xiaoyu and the eldest princess......

"He's definitely still secretly observing, thinking about it." The fifth prince's face was pale. (To be continued......)
