After putting Wu Fan and others in the iron prison of the forbidden army, Jia Baoyu was about to return to the yamen to wait, and met the eunuch of Daming Palace to deliver the decree.

Recruit him into the palace for an audience.

At this time, Emperor Jingtai summoned him, which naturally made Jia Baoyu guess a lot.

It just so happened that the eunuch who delivered the decree was Dai Quan's person, and Jia Baoyu had always recognized it, so he asked him about it.

The eunuch only said that Emperor Jingtai was in an extremely bad mood after returning to the palace, but he didn't dare to say more.

In this way, Jia Baoyu did not embarrass him, and only brought a few horsemen and horses to follow him into the palace to face the saint.

……

Fengzao Palace, Yuan Chun also heard that there was an assassin in the Fukang Palace, which caused the death of the eldest prince and the poisoning of the queen.

When she first heard about it, she was naturally surprised.

After the queen was sent back to Changle Palace, she rushed to visit.

However, fortunately, the poison does not seem to be too domineering, and after the imperial doctors have taken turns to diagnose and treat and remove the poison, the queen is no longer in serious trouble, but her body is slightly weak.

accompanied the queen in the Changle Palace, and suddenly heard that Emperor Jingtai had summoned Jia Baoyu in the Heart Cultivation Palace, and Yuan Chun was suddenly a little panicked.

Because, at this time, she had heard a lot of things that Emperor Jingtai did after his assassination, and knew that Emperor Jingtai was now when Long Yan was furious, and most of the people he summoned at this time were not good.

Sizhi Jia Baoyu and the eldest prince have always had grievances, how can she sit still.

So he got up and said goodbye to the queen.

"Are you going to His Majesty's bedchamber?" The queen saw Yuan Chun's thoughts and asked.

Yuan Chun nodded.

The queen comforted: "Actually, you don't have to worry about Baoyu, he escorted him today, and there is no dereliction of duty, on the contrary, there is also the merit of saving the driver, Your Majesty will not do anything to him."

Now that Your Majesty is in a bad mood, you may be annoyed by your Majesty when you pass this time. ”

Xia Shouzhong, the head of Changle Palace and the eunuch of the Six Palaces, also persuaded: "Yes, Guifei Niangniang, you still don't want to touch Your Majesty's moldy head at this time, the slave just heard that Wu Guifei heard that His Majesty was assassinated, and rushed to visit, but somehow angered His Majesty, and was driven out of the Heart Nourishing Palace by His Majesty's order, and then cried all the way back to the ...... of Zhongcui Palace."

When Yuan Chun heard this, not only did he not dispel his thoughts, but became more determined.

The worse the emperor's mood, the more unfavorable it was for Jia Baoyu.

If she doesn't take a look, she can't let go.

"But I still want to take a look, I heard that all the eunuchs and officials in the Fukang Palace have been arrested and imprisoned, and even several dragon guards around Your Majesty have been beheaded by Your Majesty......"

The queen sighed slightly, put her hands together, and was about to get up.

"Mother, you are ......"

Everyone hurried to support.

"That's it, since you insist on going, this palace will accompany you. Speaking of which, if it weren't for Baoyu today, I was afraid that Bengong would fall to his death, and speaking of which, he could be regarded as saving Bengong's life. ”

"How dare this, mother, your body ......"

"I'm fine, let's go, I'll accompany you to take a look."

Yuan Chun was greatly moved, and with the queen going, she naturally had more face than her. With tears in her eyes, she bent her knees with the queen, and then she no longer refused, and took the initiative to help the queen.

She didn't know what the queen was thinking.

If you really want to count it, Jia Baoyu didn't save her once......

In addition, today she took the initiative to block the sword for Emperor Jingtai, but was pushed off the platform by Emperor Jingtai.

In front of everyone's eyes, this Jingtai Emperor Lai can't rely on it. Emperor Jingtai has a loss for her.

Whether it is good or good, or he is really ashamed in his heart, so no matter how bad Emperor Jingtai is, after he returned to the palace, he still sent someone to see her as soon as possible, and instructed the imperial doctors of the entire Tai Hospital to do their best to diagnose and treat her.

That's the feeling. Although she no longer values Emperor Jingtai's affection, she might as well use it.

Therefore, if Emperor Jingtai really finds any reason to treat Jia Baoyu's crimes, as long as she passes, Emperor Jingtai will have to give her three points of thin noodles.

……

In the Heart Cultivation Palace, after Jia Baoyu kowtowed, he had not heard the word "flat" for a long time.

He wasn't in a hurry, he just knelt.

Since entering the Daming Palace, he has found that the atmosphere in today's Daming Palace is particularly dignified.

The dragon guards and eunuchs everywhere walked with their breath in their hands, and they didn't even dare to cough.

He guessed that he didn't know if Emperor Jingtai killed people after returning to the palace, which caused these people to be scared like this.

Theoretically, the emperor should be happy and not show his color. Although Emperor Jingtai looked gloomy in the past, he was still very much in line with the model of a cold emperor.

That is, Enwei is a little heavier.

But today, there are a lot of obvious gaffes of Emperor Jingtai.

Could it be that he really loves the eldest prince to this point. As soon as the eldest prince died, he completely collapsed?

Still, there is really something else hidden here.

What the great eunuch Su Yucheng said before he died, the last one, is the first retribution of Emperor Jingtai, is it a pure curse, or is it a statement of facts that people in the world do not know......

"What are you thinking?"

A cold voice came from above, and Jia Baoyu immediately kowtowed: "The minister is thinking, the ministers are not well escorted today, which frightened Your Majesty, the queen mother was poisoned, and the eldest prince was assassinated, it is really a crime that deserves death." ”

Softly snorted.

"You and the eldest prince Jing Xiu have never been at odds, he died, it is not just what you want."

The faint voice is hard to hear the joy and anger of the speaker.

Jia Baoyu was so frightened that he fell to the ground and said: "The minister is wronged, and the minister will never dare to have such a rebellious thought." ”

"Don't dare? I have a secret report here, you can take a look. ”

Emperor Jingtai threw a note down, and Jia Baoyu hurriedly picked it up and took a look.

Sure enough, the above is the signing of the Jinyi Army, which describes the events of the day of the Thousand Golden Pavilion Oiran Competition, and the focus is on the "love and hatred" between him and the assassin Wei Xiaoxiao.

Among them, there is no lack of oil and vinegar, subjective speculation.

In short, in the eyes of the writer, the possibility that Jia Baoyu colluded with the assassins to murder the eldest prince is as high as 80%!

Just glanced at it, Jia Baoyu said loudly: "Your Majesty, this is purely slanderous framing. Chen didn't dare to deny that before the incident, Chen did know the assassin who was named Wei Xiaoxiao.

However, if you want to use this as a basis, it is said that the minister and the assassin colluded to murder the prince, and the minister is really wronged!

Wei Xiaoxiao, who was an assassin's pseudonym, was the Oiran of the famous Yixiao Building in the capital, and there were few people in Beijing who went in and out of the Qinglou place, and there were few people who didn't know his name.

It's not uncommon for a minister to know her.

On the contrary, if the minister went to see the Oiran Contest that day, but did not get acquainted with Na Wei Xiaoxiao, it was not normal. The minister has always had a slight reputation in the capital, and he is favored by famous prostitutes in Qinglou, so it is not surprising that Wei Xiaoxiao took the initiative to climb the courtiers in order to become famous.

But let me ask, if the minister knew in advance that Wei Xiaoxiao was a thief and an assassin, how could he go up to her flower boat in a grand manner?

Once Nawei Xiaoxiao makes a rebellious move in the future, won't the minister dig his own grave and make it clear that the ministers and the thieves are inseparable?

The clan of ministers, since the establishment of the dynasty, the world has been favored by the emperor, and it is also a famous family, and the total population of the clan is more than 1,000.

How could a minister be so stupid and ignore the lives of thousands of people in a clan and the future of his own life?

Your Majesty, the benevolent and holy king, will be able to see everything clearly, and will not wronged any loyal courtier, and naturally, will not let go of any treacherous villain.

Your Majesty is invited to take a closer look. ”

Jia Baoyu's voice was heavy and unrelenting.

"The future is rich, today, if I am also dead, you support the new monarch to ascend to the throne, wouldn't it be a great future and wealth......"

Jia Baoyu: "The capital crime ...... the minister!" ”

How can you argue with this kind of talk? Indisputable, indefensible.

After Emperor Jingtai sat on the dragon case, he looked at Jia Baoyu, who was kneeling with His Royal Highness and looking like a saint, Rao was in a terrible mood in his heart, and he couldn't help but wonder, this person is really only more than ten years old?

The world is so big, there are so many strange people and strange things, Emperor Jingtai, as the lord of the world, will naturally not be moved by a genius in one or two days.

However, it does not prevent him from feeling that things must be demons.

He is an emperor, and many times he does not need to act according to right and wrong.

Jing Xiu is dead, maybe he will really want this person to accompany him......

However, such thoughts are only a flash in the eye.

If Emperor Jingtai really wanted to do this, he would not have summoned Jia Baoyu into the palace. With such a little evidence, Jia Baoyu can be directly sent to the prison.

Unfortunately, he knew, he couldn't. Or that he knew it didn't make much sense to do that.

It's ridiculous that an emperor can't kill a courtier......

"Your Majesty, the queen mother, Jia Guifei asks to see you."

A sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and that was it.

He just summoned people into the palace, and someone came to "rescue", if he entered the prison, I don't know if he would receive a holy decree from Xiyuan.

If that's the case, he, the emperor, really looks good on his face.

"Xuan."

Emperor Jingtai spit out this word lightly, then looked at Jia Baoyu and said, "Since you said that you were wronged, I have an errand here that can allow you to prove your innocence." ”

"Your Majesty has been sent, and the ministers should be smeared with their own hearts and minds, and they will not give up."

"The eldest prince Jing Xiu lacked virtue before his death, and he was forty out of twenty, and he didn't even leave any blood, which is really unfilial.

But after all, he is my emperor, but I can't watch him die, and there is not even a person to support the soul and guard filial piety.

Moreover, the funeral of the prince is a national ceremony, and it also needs a person to preside over the funeral, so I want to order you to be a filial son, to guard the body of the prince, and to take care of all matters during the funeral. ”

Jia Baoyu originally thought that no matter what Emperor Jingtai wanted him to do, he would just come down in one bite.

If a gentleman does not stand under the wall, it is very stupid to disobey Emperor Jingtai at this time.

But hearing this, he couldn't help but look up and glanced at Emperor Jingtai.

What's going on?

Let him help preside over the funeral, he can barely figure it out, why should he be a filial son?

What the hell is this......

Who in the capital doesn't know that there is a cat between him and the eldest prince! Isn't this burying people?

If you are someone else, death is great, and it is not completely unacceptable for him to be a "filial son" Jia Baoyu.

However, after seeing Emperor Jingtai's Shen Jun's cold face, Jia Baoyu seemed to understand something.

That's right, Emperor Jingtai may want such an effect.

Jia Baoyu can't be sure what Emperor Jingtai thinks, but it's just like the bad luck of going to Wu's house to find Wu Tianyou before......

Thinking about it like this, Jia Baoyu's heart felt as if a heavy buckshot had fallen into it, making him feel depressed and indescribably dull.

This is the suppression of the superior, or even an insult, to the inferior.

That's right, it's an insult.

If you want to find a filial son for the eldest prince, there are so many royal kings and grandchildren, who can't choose? Even, the second prince or the fourth prince, which one is not more suitable than him?

Filial son, hehe......

"Why, you don't want to?"

Seeing that Jia Baoyu didn't speak, Emperor Jingtai said in a deep voice.

"Wechen obeys."

I didn't say what I was skeptical about.

In the face of a monarch like the Emperor Taishang, Jia Baoyu can have something to say, and even add oil and vinegar to the horse. But in the face of Emperor Jingtai, especially the current Emperor Jingtai, it is a wise choice to express his thoughts less.

Isn't it just a filial son of a dead ghost, Lao Tzu should be.

"Let's be flat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Jia Baoyu had just stood up, and the queen and Yuan Chun had already arrived.

They were all relieved to see that Jia Baoyu was fine.

"Concubines, see Your Majesty."

Both of them gave Emperor Jingtai a salute.

Emperor Jingtai glanced up at them, his eyes fell on the queen, and his face slowed back by half a minute: "The poison on your body has been cured?" ”

"Thank you Your Majesty for your concern, the imperial doctor said that the concubine's body is fine, as long as she recuperates with peace of mind for a few days, she can be cured."

"If you're not in good shape, don't move around......"

"The concubine heard that Concubine Wu's sister angered Your Majesty, so she came here to ask for instructions, please mourn Your Majesty, and take care of your dragon's body."

As the queen spoke, she suddenly saw Emperor Jingtai's face change, and she immediately stopped.

I saw Emperor Jingtai suddenly look at Jia Baoyu, who was motionless below.

Jia Baoyu immediately stood up straight.

The Imperial Physician said that the poison in the queen was the poisonous powder and smoke that the assassins had hidden in the drum. If I remember correctly, the assassin was assassinated by you, and then the queen accidentally inhaled it.

I would like to ask you, why were you in it at the time, but you were not poisoned? Did you know that the smoke was poisonous, so you didn't inhale it? ”

Emperor Jingtai's face became more and more gloomy the more he spoke.

Jia Baoyu's face also changed. It was clear that Emperor Tai did not really suspect him of being involved with the Assassins, and that the reason why he was made to watch him was nothing more than to intimidate him.

Emperor Jingtai had no intention of disposing of himself.

However, once the emperor really felt that he was one of the main messengers behind the scenes, no matter what his identity was and how many implications he had behind him, Jingtai Dì Dū would not let him go.

Therefore, he hurriedly said: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister did inhale those smoke at that time, and he did feel a little unwell, as for why the minister was not poisoned, the minister guessed that it may be related to the minister's physique." ”

As a person of later generations, Jia Baoyu is not surprised by this. Everyone's constitution is different, and their resistance to toxins is also different.

But the people of this era are very in awe of such things as poison!

They don't understand.

In fact, now that I think about it, Jia Baoyu himself feels a little strange.

He said that it was fake that he felt some discomfort, but in fact, he didn't feel anything at the time except that the smoke smelled a little strange.

"Since the minister suffered from a serious illness three years ago, the minister has found that the minister's physique has become abnormally good, in the past three years, whether it is spring, summer, autumn or winter, not to mention illness, it is wind and cold, and the minister has never been infected.

The ministers and the minister's family are very strange, some Lang Zhong said that it was the illness that made the minister's physique change, and there were also Taoist priests who said that it was the Bodhisattva of Jinling Phantom Temple who was sheltering the minister, because the illness of the minister was in the Phantom Spirit Temple.

However, the people in the Chen's family are more willing to believe that it is because the piece of jade on the minister's body has appeared......

As for the exact reason, the minister is really uncertain.

The minister did not dare to lie, and His Majesty would find out about these situations by sending someone to investigate.

If Your Majesty still does not believe it, the minister asks Your Majesty to take the poisonous smoke, and the minister is willing to test the poison to prove his innocence. ”

Jia Baoyu said in a positive voice.

"Your Majesty......"

The queen and the others immediately became nervous.

Emperor Jingtai looked at Jia Baoyu with a calm face, the gloom in his eyes did not dissipate, and suddenly said, "Take a cigarette." ”
