Chapter 66: Revealed
"Father, although there is a reason for the incident, it is not all the fault of the sons."
Feng Yi knelt on the ground and said to the emperor with a serious face: "Father, when the son returned to Beijing and entered the palace today, he met the second emperor's brother on the street. ”
"Erchen was afraid that the second emperor brother would lose royal face, so he wanted to take him back to the palace, but the second emperor brother refused, and Erchen had a dispute with the second emperor brother."
"Xu Shierchen was a little anxious for a while, and accidentally injured the second emperor brother when he was arguing with the second emperor's brother, and asked his father to punish him."
When Feng Yi was telling what had happened, every time he said a word, the emperor's face sank a little, and Concubine Hui's face turned white.
"Let me punish you?" The emperor looked at Feng Yi and said with a gloomy face: "This is how things are, how do you want me to punish you?" ”
Feng Yi knelt on the ground and lowered his head, the emperor looked at him fixedly, and then shifted his gaze to Concubine Hui next to him.
"Do you know what Yi'er just said?"
"Concubine, concubine ......" Concubine Hui hesitated with a pale face, seeing that the emperor's face was getting more and more ugly, she quickly lowered her head and admitted her mistake: "Your Majesty, the concubine is in a hurry, so she ......."
"I still want to quibble!" The emperor interrupted her sharply, and said with an annoyed face: "You don't even know what happened, just because you saw Fenglin injured, you ran to me indiscriminately to complain, and let me cure Yi'er's crimes." ”
"Fenglin, as the second prince of the Northern Capital, is drunk and full of nonsense on the street, which is a big mistake."
"And you, as his biological mother, didn't ask what happened, just because he was slightly injured, you ran to the wicked person to sue first."
"Tell me, how do you want me to punish Yi'er?"
In the last sentence, the emperor's tone was very cold, and Concubine Hui was so frightened that she hurriedly leaned over and said: "The emperor forgives the sin, and the concubine knows that she is wrong." ”
"The concubine just saw that Lin'er was injured, and she was anxious for a while, so she lost her proportions, and hoped that the emperor would be gracious and spare the concubine."
The emperor frowned and looked at Concubine Hui, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, where is Fenglin?" Let him come to me. ”
Hearing the emperor mention Fenglin, Concubine Hui was obviously stunned, and said with a hesitant face: "Lin'er, Lin'er, he was injured and is resting in the palace." ”
Fenglin was helped back to the dormitory, and he was still drunk at the time, if he is ...... now.
Seeing that Concubine Hui's eyes were fluttering, as if she was lying, the emperor immediately looked at Gonggong Li beside him, "Bring Fenglin to see me." ”
"The emperor is angry, and the slave will go and invite the second highness to come down."
The emperor looked at the two kneeling on the ground, and said unhappily: "Okay, get up." ”
"Thank you, Father."
"Your Majesty."
Concubine Hui looked at the door of the imperial study with some worry, and was even more anxious when she thought that Fenglin would come over later.
On the other hand, Feng Yi, with his head held high, stood beside the emperor with a righteous attitude, and really responded to that sentence, not doing bad things, and not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door.
Sure enough, Fenglin was carried by two eunuchs to the imperial study, and when the emperor saw that he was still drunk, he suddenly felt angry.
"Drag him out to sober up, and if he sobers up, he doesn't have to bring me to see me, he is directly confined to the dormitory, and he is not allowed to leave the dormitory for half a step without my permission."
"Yes, I will obey the emperor's instructions."
Concubine Hui originally wanted to intercede, but when she saw that the emperor's face was so angry that her face darkened, she didn't dare to speak again, but silently counted the account on Feng Yi's head in her heart.
Looking at Concubine Hui, the emperor said gloomily: "Today's incident, I don't want it to happen a second time, otherwise there will be heavy punishment." ”
"Thank you for your kindness, and the concubines know that they are wrong."
The emperor waved his hand and said, "Okay, you go out first, I still have something to tell Yi'er." ”
"The concubine retired."
Concubine Hui bowed and retreated, and when she left, she glanced back at Feng Yi, her eyes were a little resentful.
After Concubine Hui left, the emperor patted Feng Yi on the shoulder and praised: "Yi'er, you did the right thing today, you have my royal demeanor." ”
"Son-in-law, thank your father, and praise the emperor." Feng Yi's generous gratitude has the momentum of the prince of the northern capital.
The emperor smiled with some relief, and then said, "Okay, you continue to tell me what happened to you in Jiangnan." ”
After Feng Yi finished talking to the emperor, he went back to his dormitory, because when he left Jiangnan, there were still many things that had not been done, such as assassin assassination, and the governor Sun Jianye's corruption of official positions.
Both of these things are already tricky, and now they are all mixed together, and you have to be careful with every step.
After thinking about it, Feng Yi still wrote a letter to his cronies and asked him to send it out quickly.
- Leizhou City
When Xiao Yan received Feng Yi's letter, he was playing chess with Feng Yu, although they had not tracked down Sun Jianye's news for a long time, but they still had to relax when it was time to relax.
When he saw the words on the envelope, Xiao Yan first glanced at Fengyu on the other side, and then opened the letter to look at it.
Seeing Feng Yi say in the letter that he had arrived in the capital and had entered the palace to explain the matter to the emperor, Xiao Yan relaxed in his heart, and then handed the letter to Feng Yu.
"The princess doesn't have to worry, the eldest prince has returned to the palace safely."
Feng Yu took the letter and read it, and finally smiled after reading it, she had been worried that Feng Yi would be assassinated again on the way back to Beijing, but fortunately, there was no danger and she went back safely.
"Next is Sun Jianye's business." Feng Yu folded the letter and put it back in the envelope, frowned, and said, "This Sun Jianye is really hiding, and our people have been searching for a few days in Leizhou City and there is no news." ”
Xiao Yan looked at her and smiled, and comforted: "Don't worry, princess, we will definitely catch him." ”
"Well, he's got to be caught." Feng Yu nodded.
Just as the two of them were looking at each other, a guard walked quickly from outside, and then said to Xiao Yan: "Tell the general, the subordinates have been arranged, can you go?" ”
Suddenly disturbed, Xiao Yan glanced at the guard with some displeasure and said, "Since you're ready, let's go." ”
Today, Lu Yunpeng held a banquet to entertain Feng Yu and Xiao Yan in the Assassin Mansion, but fortunately, Xiao Yan's injuries recovered well, so Feng Yu did not shirk it.
At the banquet, Feng Yu found that Mrs. Thorn Shi was preoccupied, thinking that there was something at home that made her worried, so she didn't pay attention to it at first.
But whenever Mrs. Thorn Shi collided with her, she would always look away in a panic, which made Feng Yu suspicious.
Seeing Mrs. Thorn Shi leave the table halfway, Feng Yu also found a reason to leave, and then pretended to run into Mrs. Thorn Shi.
collided with Fengyu head-on, and Mrs. Thorn Shi couldn't dodge anymore, so she had to reply hard.
"At the banquet just now, I saw that Madame was worried, and I wanted to ask Madame what she was worried about?"
Mrs. Thorn Shi's eyes were still erratic, she looked at Feng Yu and smiled reluctantly, and said with some hesitation: "The princess is too worried, the slave family is just ......"
"It's only recently that I have been ill recently, so I lost my politeness in front of the princess and the general, and I hope that the princess Haihan."
Although Feng Yu felt that she was just prevaricating herself, Feng Yu felt that every family had a scripture that was difficult to read, maybe it was her and Lu Yunpeng's family affairs that caused her to be like this, so she didn't ask again.
"Madame's words are serious." Feng Yu looked at her with a smile and said, "It's windy outside, and Madame is unwell, so let's go back to the room to rest." ”
"Thank you for your forgiveness, and the slave family will retreat first." Mrs. Thorn bowed, and then took the maid back to the wing.
Now that she had solved the doubts in her heart, Feng Yu turned around and prepared to go back to the table, but she saw a small servant carrying food to a courtyard, and she was curious, so she followed.
Seeing that the little guy arrived in the study, Feng Yu wanted to continue to investigate, but was exposed by the subordinates passing by.
When the little guy saw Fengyu, he was so frightened that he immediately knelt down and said, "The villain knocks on the princess, and the princess is blessed with Jin'an." ”
"Get up." Feng Yu said calmly, then looked at the meal served by the little maid, and asked, "Who is this meal for?" ”
Xiao Yu's face was shocked, and his eyes suddenly became flustered, but because he kept his head down, Feng Yu didn't see it.
"Back to the princess, Steward Zhao is sorting out the accounts in the study, and the little one is bringing him food."
It turned out to be like this, Feng Yu thought in her heart, then glanced at the door of the study, and said, "Okay, you go in, I should also go back to the table." ”
"Princess, walk slowly."
After Fengyu left, the little girl immediately exhaled, then looked around vigilantly, and then pushed open the door of the study and went in.
Feng Yu returned to the banquet, and when she saw Xiao Yan refusing to drink seriously, she couldn't help but feel a little happy in her heart.
Before coming to the banquet, Feng Yu explained to Xiao Yan, saying that the injuries on his body had not healed and that it was not appropriate to drink, so he asked him not to drink, so now seeing this scene, Feng Yu felt very satisfied.
Xiao Yan looked sideways at Feng Yu and asked with a smile, "Where did the princess go?" ”
"Just go for a walk." Feng Yu said disapprerovantly, and then picked up chopsticks to eat vegetables.
Xiao Yan smiled dotingly, and then took advantage of Lu Yunpeng's inattention to clip a piece of fish meat that had been removed from the fish bones for Feng Yu.
Feng Yu was moved in her heart, picked up the fish and fed it to her mouth, Xiao Yan looked at her and asked, "How does it taste?" Is it tasty? ”
Nodding, Feng Yu raised her head and just wanted to speak, when she suddenly saw the person standing next to Lu Yunpeng, and was stunned.
Seeing Feng Yu's expression, Xiao Yan thought that his fish bones had not been removed, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" Is it stuck by a fish bone? ”
Feng Yu shook her head and asked in a low voice, "When I just left the table, was Steward Zhao always here?" ”
Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, then glanced at Steward Zhao, nodded and said, "Yes, when the princess left, Steward Zhao was always here to serve." ”
Looking at Steward Zhao with a flattering face, and then at Lu Yunpeng with a smile on his face, Feng Yu was shocked, so she was deceived by the little girl.
Since Steward Zhao has always been here, there is someone else in the study, and the meal sent by the little servant is for that person.
It seems that this Lu Yunpeng has something to hide from her and Xiao Yan, but I don't know if the matter he is hiding is related to Sun Jianye?
