Chapter 320, the situation in the capital city is changing, and the prince is trapped

Situ Yan came out of the woods next to the post road and returned to the mule cart, Mo Yu followed closely behind, and he was not in a hurry to go back to recover at this time, and it was important to protect Miss Situ's safety.

San Lang pulled the little sister aside, with a worried face, "Little Wu, what's wrong?" That person seems to be the guard next to Young Master Duanmu? ”

"Well, it's nothing, the gates will open in a moment. Let's talk about it when we go home! "There are quite a few people gathered outside the city gates, and it is not the time to speak. Situ Yan only gave San Lang a reassuring smile, which finally made him feel a little more relieved. But like Mo Yu, San Lang is most nervous about the safety of his little sister, and he is even more on the side at this time. He is very glad to have followed his little sister to the capital at this time, no matter what happens in the city, he will definitely protect his little sister with his life.

Seeing that these two were nervous and worried about themselves, Situ Yan felt warm in her heart. I don't want the two of them to be nervous in vain, after all, the royal affairs have nothing to do with them. I took out a small stove from the car, prepared to light a fire to make tea, and took out two more bags of snacks. Whether it is a merchant, a relative, a returnee, or a hurry,......。 Which is not a look of anxiety, full of complaints. But only Situ Yan actually lit a fire outside the gate of the capital, planning to start a picnic.

"Miss Situ, let's let my subordinates make this fire!" Mo Yu admired this future young master more and more, if it weren't for the fact that there were still these people around, he wouldn't even feel the tension in the imperial city.

"It's good!" Someone helped, Situ Yan was happy and took out a board from the car. I put on the stones, and even made a few tables and stools. Saburo helps while peeking at the little sister. His little sister is always so calm, even stronger than a big man like him.

"Okay, third brother come and sit! Mo Yu, you also sit, no matter what kind of situation this person comes into, he can't wronged himself, otherwise he will be too sorry for the parents who gave birth to us! "Situ Yan is at ease. But the people who have been watching them not far away are not so leisurely. But no one came to find fault at this time, after all, it was outside the gate of the capital.

Mo Yu knew Miss Situ's temperament and gave birth to the stove. That is, sit down. "Try this snack, you've been guarding the city gate, I'm afraid you haven't even entered lunch, right?" Situ Yan handed one packet of dim sum to Mo Yu, and the other to San Lang. "The third brother also eats some cushions. Looks like this snack is our lunch! ”

"Little five eat, I'm not hungry!" Where is San Lang willing to eat, this morning the eldest brother only prepared two packs of snacks for the little sister, afraid that she would be hungry on the road.

"There are still in the car, the third brother just eats!" Situ Yan's ring has dim sum, where would he care about this bag and a half. But Saburo didn't know, and he refused to eat anything. Situ Yan had no choice but to pretend to go to the car to pick it up, and took out two packs of dim sum from the ring. That's when Saburo was persuaded to do so.

"Miss Situ's skills are really better than the imperial chef in the palace!" Mo Yu praised while eating, but it was from the bottom of his heart.

"Oh. It seems that the Mo Great Guards often go in and out of the Forbidden Palace? But I didn't make what you ate this time! It's my eldest brother who did it, how about it, it's no worse than what I did! ”

"Yes, it's delicious. Although his subordinates often follow the young master into the palace, they don't want to go to that place from the bottom of their hearts. And the subordinates ate all the snacks that the young master rewarded when he entered the official. It's just that the young master has always been stubborn and never eats, but he has cheapened his subordinates and others! ”

"He's very picky!" Situ Yan didn't think Duanmu Xuan was awkward, after all, he would eat everything she cooked.

"Miss can wronged the young master, as long as the young lady cooks it, it is a fly insect and a turtle, and the young master eats it sweetly!" Mo Yu could see that Li Sanlang had other thoughts about Situ Yan, so he naturally wanted to clear this rival for the young master. So pick up something you love and listen to others.

"I remember what the big guard Mo said, one day I will make a plate of stir-fried flies and insects, braised turtles to serve wine for your young master!" Situ Yan also understood, but even if she knew her intentions, she was happy to joke with Mo Yu.

"Miss Situ should spare her subordinates' lives, if you let the young master know that this idea was made by her subordinates, I'm afraid that it will be okay if you don't sweep the stables and be beaten with military sticks!"

The two fought a few words, but they passed a lot of time, but San Lang heard that the little sister seemed to have a heart for this young master Duanmu, and it was inevitable that he would feel uncomfortable, but he firmly believed that as long as the little sister was not married for a day, he would guard the little sister for a day, even if the little sister married someone else as a wife in the future, he would be a good brother and protect her for a lifetime.

The sky gradually darkened, some people sat down on the ground with hunger, and some people who wanted to enter Beijing to do business actually set up stalls outside the city to sell them. For a time, the outside of the city was more lively than the inside.

Before the sun set, the city gate was finally opened, and Mo Yu escorted Situ Yan back to Situ Mansion before returning to the Gongfu to resume his life.

"Back to the young master, Miss Situ asked her subordinates to give you this bag of dim sum, thank you for reporting the news!" Mo Yu put the dim sum in the young master's hand, and then stepped aside.

"Yan'er, did she say anything else?"

"Miss Situ only said four words: 'Be careful!' ”

Duanmu Xuan smiled knowingly, he has worked hard for so long, pursued for so long, and now he can finally see the moon when the clouds open. While eating the dim sum made by Situ Yan, he couldn't stop snickering. Mo Yu saw that the young master's nymphomaniac was committed again, so he had to bow and retreat.

Liang Rengong did not return to the house until midnight, and as soon as he returned to the house, he recruited his son into the study in the outer courtyard.

"Xuan'er, the crown princess did give birth to a ghost fetus, although the fetus is the father and has not seen it, but your aunt has seen it, with two heads, one big and one small, short limbs, and even incomplete fingers, abdominal distension like a bulge, and the mouth and nose are difficult to distinguish. Your aunt was still trembling when she said it, so it can be seen that she was not lightly frightened! ”

"No wonder it was rumored to be a ghost fetus, Yan'er said that it was poisoning that gave birth to a deformed child!"

"This matter, my father has discussed it with your aunt, and when the emperor returns to the palace, find a way to draw the emperor's attention to the 'Fushou Cream', so that it is impossible for the prince to be alone!"

"I'm afraid that when the queen loses her car to protect her handsome, she will make the princess a scapegoat!"

"With your aunt's arrangement, you won't let the queen succeed!"

The son was thinking. If this longevity ointment alone may not be able to bring down the crown prince, this scapegoat may be those who are businessmen, even if they are not the crown princess. After all, in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty today, many people have become addicted! And they are all alive and sick! ”

"Don't ask the emperor for letters, just ask the emperor to be suspicious, since ancient times, there is no emperor who is not suspicious, as long as there is doubt in his heart, the position of the prince will naturally be shaken, and when the opportunity is ripe. Let's push the flames from the side, and everything will be done! "Although Liang Rengong is not an old fox, his family is also from a big family. The ability to calculate people is no worse than Situ Yan.

"You can ask the girl about this matter again to see if she has any better way, if she can prepare more, there will be more roads. In case something happens. I can also have multiple means of saving my life! ”

"Father, son doesn't want Yan'er to get involved in the court dispute!"

"As long as she marries into the Guogong Mansion, I'm afraid it will be difficult to be alone, rather than getting used to it then, it is better to plan now. Just ask, I think the girl knows she's not an outsider anymore! The father and son discussed for more than an hour, and then they went back to rest.

Early the next morning, Liang Rengong was recruited into the palace again. Duanmu Xuan went straight to Situ Mansion, first, he wanted to go to the tryst with the beauty. Second, he also felt that his father's words yesterday were reasonable. Although he didn't want Situ Yan to be bothered, he also wanted to discuss with her. After all, Situ Yan would always think of some ideas that he couldn't think of.

In the imperial city, Emperor Wu sat on top of the Jinluan Palace, with a solemn face, and the Hundred Palaces of Civil and Military Affairs stood at the foot of the steps, not even daring to breathe. Yesterday the city was closed, and the emperor immediately issued a gag order, and no one in the government and the opposition was allowed to discuss the matter of the crown princess. If there is any disobedience, he will be sentenced to the crime of collaborating with the enemy.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you have already heard about yesterday's events, and there have been rumors in Wu since ancient times that 'ghosts have descended, and the lord of the country is different'! What do you think in your mind? ”

The emperor wanted these ministers to express their position, but Liang Rengong was not the first to stand up, but the prince who supported the prince stood up first, "The ministers have no two hearts, and they serve the lord wholeheartedly!" Taibao and Taifu, as well as the three divisions, also stood up and followed to show their loyalty.

Emperor Wu also knew that these people were only doing superficial work, but he was in a mess at this moment, and he couldn't show a point on his face, so he asked this question.

"Your Majesty, the crown princess has always had excellent body and bones, and the prince has been raised in the palace since he was a child, how could this happen? What does the Imperial Doctor say? "On the Liangren Fair Day, the court rarely discussed politics, and the emperor rarely asked for his opinion except for the war. Now that I see Liang Rengong asking, I can't help but pay more attention.

"Where is the Tai Hospital?"

"The minister is here!"

"Tell me all the things you have verified!"

"Yes, back to the emperor, the princess has been happy since she was happy, the fetal image is stable, she has never seen any abnormality, and her diet and daily life are no different from usual, and the ministers checked the princess's daily life and application afterwards, and only one was not recommended by the minister, but given by the prince to the princess!"

"What is it?"

"This thing is" Fushou paste ", smoking will make people feel fluttering and immortal, whether it is harmful to the body, and the minister does not know!" The imperial doctor's words made Wu Huang suspicious, he was also using this thing, before the imperial doctor said that this thing was non-toxic, could it be that it was just a small toxicity that could not be detected, if this is the case, then this thing is not a longevity, but a killing invisible.

"Didn't the hospital say that this thing was non-toxic?"

"Yes, back to the emperor, although this thing is non-toxic, whether it can be used by pregnant women, the minister really doesn't know. Pregnant people should avoid eating more, like crabs, normal people can eat it without hindrance, you can give it to pregnant people, and it will slip the fetus! ”

"Since you already knew, why didn't you mention it when you asked for a pulse in the womb?" Emperor Wu was inevitably angry in his heart, this matter can be big or small, if the imperial doctor intends to conceal it, then this matter is not so simple.

"The emperor Shengcha, the minister did not know that the princess had the habit of smoking this thing, and the princess never mentioned it every time she went, and this thing was a foreign product, and the prince gave it to the emperor, so the minister did not dare to doubt it. Today, because the crown princess gave birth to a strange baby, when the minister searched in the princess's bedroom, I learned that I asked the emperor to be gracious! "The Tai Hospital is kneeling at the bottom of the stairs with a bitter face, accompanied by a gentleman like a tiger, no one understands this sentence more thoroughly than them.

"You calm down first, of course this matter must be investigated, if it is really this thing that is strange, this thing will never be reproduced in the palace in the future." Emperor Wu did not blame the prince for this move, after all, since yesterday, the prince has been a little delirious, and he is still lying in the palace and unable to get up.

"Yes, the minister must find out about this!" The Imperial Physician stepped aside, and the early dynasty continued.

Liang Rengong didn't stand up and speak again, after all, his goal had been achieved, and in order to save his life, even if he didn't find out whether this matter was done by this thing, he would definitely push this matter to this "Fushou ointment". The crown prince was suspected only sooner or later.

In the inner palace, there is a battle between the open and the dark, and the battle of words above the court is a bloody storm. But Situ Fuzhong was affectionate, Duanmu Xuan, Li Sanlang and Situ Jinzheng accompanied Situ Yan to breakfast.

Entering the city late yesterday, Situ Yan and Situ Jin chatted for most of the night, and got up late this morning. On the contrary, Duanmu Xuan came earlier than usual, so the three of them had the opportunity to have breakfast with Situ Yan together.

"Brother, third brother, you also eat more, this table of food, where can I finish eating alone!"

"Yan'er eat more, it's been more than a month since I left, and my brother seems to have lost weight again when I see you!"

"Well, my brother thinks I'm thin as long as he doesn't see me for a day, as if I don't eat or drink all day."

"Brother Situ is right, Xiao Wu, you have lost weight!"

"Third brother, that's slim, I don't want to be fat! Ugly! ”

"Zhongxian is right, Yan'er eats more, even if you eat fat, you won't insult your reputation as the first talented woman!"

"Humph!" The three big Buddhas guarded her alone, watching her eat, this taste was really uncomfortable and uncomfortable. Situ Yan barely ate a bowl of weakness, and she couldn't eat it anymore.

"Ziheng came to Situ Mansion early in the morning, I'm afraid there is something to discuss, right?" When such a big thing happened in the palace, Duanmu Xuan should be very busy, and he would never come to gossip with her at this time.

"Exactly, I didn't want to bother Yan'er with these things, but I don't know much about the 'Fushou Ointment', and I have to ask Yan'er for more help!"

"I don't know much, but if you want the emperor to believe this, I'm afraid you have to do some experiments?"

"What is doing experiments?"

"It is to let dogs, cats, mice, and other animals also suck this thing, if the animal eats it and dies, then it can be proved, of course, with the emperor's person, I am afraid that it is not as simple as just using animals to test!"

Sure enough, as Situ Yan expected, the imperial doctor used death row prisoners to do experiments, and even stole a few pregnant women from the people to come back and let them smoke "Fushou Cream" every day. The general practice is to prove that this "Fushou ointment" is the culprit and has nothing to do with the hospital. It's just that this experiment takes time, and the results are not immediate. The emperor will not let the imperial doctor wait for the fetus to land after October.

"Yan'er, I heard you say this, this test takes a lot of time, is there any faster way?"

"You don't need to suck it, just eat it. Feed them to different animals according to the amount. It will work, and the results will be immediate! It's just that this thing is not delicious to eat, so you can only use it! Situ Yan's words were like an empowerment, giving Duanmu Xuan the best direction.

Duanmu Xuan thanked him again and again, and went home directly to deliver a message to his father. Sure enough, the next day, the news came out from the Tai Hospital, "The people who ate the 'Fushou Cream' have died in the prison!" Emperor Wu was not only shocked, but also ordered the people of Wu to never use the "Fushou Cream" again on the same day. even confined the prince in the palace. After all, this thing was presented to the emperor by the crown prince.

Mu Yi, the seventh prince, has been guarding the emperor's illness every day these days, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are like smelling the direction of the wind, so they naturally stand on the side of the seven princes. It's just that the situation in the court is changing, and the prince occupies the position of the prince for a day, and the seventh prince can only be a prince. Naturally, some people are clear about these things, and some people are confused, but they have nothing to do with Situ Yan. She is now fully committed to her career, and the wind of play is rising. (To be continued......)
