Shen Bai was startled, afraid of bumping into someone he knew, so he subconsciously pushed the person away, knelt on the ground with a pop, his shoulders trembled slightly, revealing a frightened look, and he wanted to bury his head in his chest.

A slender and sharp voice sounded above his head: "Bold minion, I don't want to live anymore, I dare to rush against His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”

Is it Zhao Che that she just bumped into?

Shen Bai was shocked into a cold sweat, unable to speak, and could only kowtow vigorously to admit his mistake.

Xiaobei stood next to Zhao Che, and when she saw that Gong E was reckless, she only knew how to kowtow and didn't say a word, so she suddenly became angry, and scolded Shen Bai with her head and face: "What about you, are you dumb?" Don't say a word, you really don't want your head anymore? ”

Shen Bai secretly complained, if she could speak now, she would have pinched her throat and changed her voice to fool her.

Shen Bai trembled all over, afraid that Zhao Che would investigate, so he gritted his teeth and kowtowed several times.

Zhao Che came with Gu Hengzhou, just now when Shen Bai rushed over, Gu Hengzhou took the first step in front of Zhao Che and stopped Shen Bai, and when he saw Shen Bai kneeling on the ground, he inexplicably felt that this person's figure was a little familiar, and his brows were slightly twisted.

Xiaobei had never seen such a twisted Gong'e in the palace, and raised her foot to kick Shen Bai to teach her a good lesson, but Gu Hengzhou stretched out his hand to stop her, Xiaobei was surprised, he didn't expect His Royal Highness the Prince to maintain a small Gong'e.

Zhao Che kept staring at Shen Bai, and after Gu Hengzhou stopped Xiaobei, he said in a deep voice: "Raise your head." ”

At this time, how can I raise my head and let you see, isn't this asking for human life.

Shen Bai refused to raise his head, bit his finger and wrote on the ground: Please forgive your highness, the slave is dumb.

Mute? Such a coincidence?

Zhao Che's eyebrows raised slightly, he didn't believe Shen Bai's words, and said coldly: "This palace asked you to raise your head, but didn't let you speak, even if you are dumb, it won't hinder you." ”

The slave was disfigured.

Shen Bai still wanted to write this sentence, but Zhao Che's voice was lowered, and he was dyed with three points of slaughter: "This palace has limited patience, and this palace doesn't like to say the fourth time in the same way!" ”

Zhao Che's tone was already angry, but Shen Bairuo still insisted on refusing to raise his head, for fear that he would suffer a big loss.

I can't hide from the left and right, but fortunately, I ran into Zhao Che, not into other people, things haven't reached the worst yet, maybe there is room to go back.

Shen Bai comforted himself in his heart, gritted his teeth and raised his head.

The closest person standing to Shen Bai was Gu Hengzhou, who changed into a dark brocade robe today, only the neckline and cuffs were embroidered with silver thread and dark lines, and there was no other embroidery, which was very cold and handsome.

Xiaobei wanted to teach Shen Bai a lesson, but was stopped by Gu Hengzhou, Zhao Che stood at the end in an apricot yellow four-clawed prince suit, and the three of them were stunned when they saw Shen Bai.

Gu Hengzhou and Zhao Che have both seen Shen Bai's women's clothes, and their performances are relatively calm, Xiaobei is the first time to see Shen Bai like this, so he was so shocked that he took two steps back, pointed at Shen Bai with his fingers, and his fingertips trembled uncontrollably.

He opened his mouth, gasped uncontrollably, and only turned his head to Zhao Che after a while and said, "Your ...... Your Highness, this person looks like Young Master Shen! ”

It's more than like, that's it!

After Zhao Che and Gu Hengzhou were shocked at first, they all pursed their lips and tightened their faces, eager to pick up the person who was kneeling on the ground and beat him fatly.

This is not outside the palace, so many people come and go to watch, she dares to run around so blatantly in a woman's clothes, she really doesn't want her head?

Xiao Bei didn't think of the two of them as one person, and wanted to get closer to see how similar this Gong E and Shen Bai were, not far away there was a messy footstep, Xiao Bei's eyes were full of flowers, and when he came back to his senses, he saw His Royal Highness the Prince of the World, who was usually cold and indifferent, pulled up this Gong E, who was very similar to Young Master Shen, and pressed it into his arms, so that no one could see it.

It was the Praetorian Guards who were on duty in the palace who came to report the news, and when they saw Zhao Che and Gu Hengzhou, the man breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly stood up and bowed: "My subordinates pay a visit to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Zhao Che glanced at Gu Hengzhou, didn't comment on his behavior, raised his eyes to look at the Praetorian Guard and asked, "You are not allowed to travel quickly in the palace, what happened to you in such a hurry?" ”

The Praetorian Guard replied: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the concubine of the Jiang family had an accident in the palace, and now Young Master Jiang has rushed over, and his subordinates are about to report this matter to His Majesty." ”

The palace is so guarded, what can happen to Jiang Qinse?

Gu Hengzhou twisted his eyebrows, Zhao Che also looked solemn, he asked the Praetorian Guard to get up, and said coldly: "This palace and the prince go over to have a look first, you hurry up and report to your father." ”

"Yes!"

The Praetorian Guards left quickly, Gu Hengzhou just wanted to take Shen Bai back first, but he turned his head and saw Hu Xuan walking with Hu Yuelan, followed by Murong Qi, the eldest prince of Nanxiang Kingdom, and Luo Li, the crown princess.

This time is obviously not a good time to take Shen Bai away, Gu Hengzhou's eyebrows were cold, he took off his sweat towel and handed it to Shen Bai and said, "You have a face that shouldn't be born, block it!" ”

Xiaobei didn't know the inside story, but Gu Hengzhou was afraid that the envoys would laugh at Shen Bai if they found out that Gong E looked alike to Shen Bai, so he hurriedly agreed: "Yes, yes, block it quickly, don't let others see your face!" ”

After Xiaobei finished speaking, he felt very strange, he had been in the palace for so many years, how could he never know which palace had a palace that looked like Young Master Shen?

Shen Bai took the sweat towel to cover his face, only revealing a pair of black and white eyes outside, just kowtowing hard, and there was a small abrasion on his eyebrows.

Gu Hengzhou's eyebrows furrowed more and more, and Zhao Che said to Shen Bai, "Still not following behind the palace?" ”

Xiaobei directly pulled Shen Bai to his side, Gu Hengzhou also walked to the position of one step behind Zhao Che's left, and Hu Xuan and his party walked over.

In the past few days, he has eaten and slept well in Zhaoling, and he is full of energy and energy, not at all like being a guest in another country, but more like being in his own palace.

Zhao Che put one hand behind him, bowed his head slightly, and said lightly: "Your Majesty, princess." After speaking, he looked at Murong Qi again, "His Royal Highness, morning." ”

Hu Xuan relied on his old age and seniority, and his smile was considered a return gift, Hu Yuelan saluted Zhao Chefu according to the etiquette of the noble daughter of Zhaoling, and Murong Qi and Luo Li saluted according to the etiquette of the royal family of Nanxiang Kingdom.

As soon as they finished saluting, another Praetorian Guard came, and the man walked very fast, his eyebrows were full of anxiety, although he slowed down after seeing Ku Xuan and them, he was still keenly aware that something was wrong.

Hu Xuan spoke before Zhao Che: "What happened?" ”

The ugliness of the family should not be publicized, not to mention that Hu Xuan is not from Zhaoling, this Praetorian Guard subconsciously looked at Zhao Che, not knowing whether to answer or not, Zhao Che's face was calm, and he said in a grand manner: "If the king asks you, tell the truth." ”

Now that it's already bumped into, there's nothing to hide.

This is what Zhao Che wanted to express, the Praetorian Guard understood, and arched his hand: "Back to the king, His Royal Highness the Prince, Miss Jiang had an accident in the palace last night, and she closed the door at this time and didn't let anyone in, it seems that she wants to find a short-term view, Young Master Jiang blocked the door and didn't let his subordinates in, the situation was really critical, and his subordinates didn't dare to conflict with Young Master Jiang and forcibly enter, so they could only go to His Majesty to deal with this matter." ”

There are not many heirs in the Jiang family, Jiang Yinglou is just an adopted son who is not related by blood, Jiang De'an actually only has Jiang Qinse's daughter under his knees, if something really happens to Jiang Qinse's short-sightedness, things will not be easy to do.

Zhao Che's breath changed, and he made a decisive decision: "It's important to save people, attack it, stay in the palace if something happens!" ”

"Yes!"

The Praetorian Guard turned to leave, Zhao Che had a cold face, and said apologetically: "Something happened suddenly, which made the king and the eldest prince smile, do you want to go to rest first or go over with the palace to see what happened?" ”

Hu Xuan couldn't wait for anything to see, and immediately said that he wanted to go together, Murong Qi arched his hand and said: "Li'er was unwell last night, and the imperial doctor diagnosed that she might be pregnant, so she shouldn't be frightened, so I won't go, let's take her to rest first." ”

Murong Qi and Luo Li's temperament is friendly and gentle, which is in stark contrast to Hu Xuan, Murong Qi loosely hugged Luo Li's waist after speaking, and the meaning of care was very obvious.

"The princess diagnosed the happy pulse in Zhaoling, this is a great joy for Nanxiang and Zhaoling, His Royal Highness the prince will take the princess to rest first, and the palace will let the imperial doctor come to help the princess diagnose the pulse again, and then take good supplements from the treasury to supplement the princess's body, and consolidate the foundation."

Zhao Che released the greatest kindness, and Murong Qi smiled gently and said, "His Royal Highness Prince Xie." ”

Seeing Murong Qi hug Luo Li and leave, Zhao Che immediately smiled and strode towards the place where the female dependents lived, Hu Xuan followed behind with Hu Yuelan, and he didn't feel embarrassed at all.

Jiang Qinse made a lot of noise, but in the end they were all noblewomen from famous families and well-educated, they didn't get together to watch the excitement like the women in the market, they all stayed in their rooms, when Zhao Che arrived, the Praetorian Guards just broke through Jiang Yinglou's stop and rushed into Jiang Qinse's room.

Jiang Qinse found Bai Silk out of nowhere and wanted to hang herself by hanging the beam, and after the Praetorian Guards rushed in, she immediately cut off Bai Silk and carried her to the bed.

Out of scruples for the defense of men and women, the Praetorian Guards put her down and immediately retreated to the side, Jiang Qinse's neck was still strangled severely, she was lying on the bed with her neck covered and coughed in pain, and the personal maid knelt and threw herself on the side of the bed, crying loudly: "Miss, are you okay, don't scare the slave maid, Miss, what should you do if you have a slave maid with three long and two short......

This maid was newly transferred to Jiang Qinse's side to serve, she is not so smart, she has never encountered such a thing, she is already stupid at this time, she only knows how to cry, and she doesn't know how to pour a cup of tea to moisten her throat for her young lady.

Jiang Yinglou had a lot of trouble with the Praetorian Guards outside, his face was full of fierce and dark anger, as if he was going to draw his sword and fight to the death with the Praetorian Guards in the palace in the next moment.

After Zhao Che arrived, he didn't rush into the house to see Jiang Qinse's situation, so he first asked the Praetorian Guards to let go of Jiang Yinglou, looked at Jiang Yinglou coldly and asked, "What happened?" What are you messing about? ”

Seeing Zhao Che, Jiang Yinglou calmed down, first bowed his hand, and then said angrily: "Please forgive Your Highness, today I lost my temper, but someone bullied Se'er in front, and before leaving home, my father-in-law handed Se'er into my hands to let me protect Se'er, and now that she has an accident, I really can't keep calm." ”

Jiang Yinglou's tone was very impulsive, and the sincerity of the apology was not a little, and he also exonerated himself.

Zhao Che cleared his words and asked, "Who bullied Miss Jiang?" ”

Jiang Yinglou choked for a moment, stiffened his neck and said, "I want to wait for His Majesty to come and talk about this matter." ”

This attitude is not believing that Zhao Che will administer justice for them.

The maids in Jiang Qinse's house howled non-stop, and they didn't know where the strength came from, and the crying was getting louder and louder, Zhao Che glanced at the room, and then looked at Jiang Yinglou and asked: "Young Master Jiang must wait for his father to come before talking about this matter, do you think that this palace is not capable of handling this matter well or do you think that this palace will not handle this matter fairly and properly?" ”

The substantive difference between these two things is actually not big, Jiang Yinglou doesn't believe in his ability as a prince.

Jiang Yinglou lifted the hem of his clothes and knelt down, and said firmly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is serious, I don't dare to have such an idea, I just think that this matter is very important, it is better to wait for His Majesty to come." ”

Jiang Yinglou insisted on waiting for Emperor Hengde to come, but Zhao Che did not force it, and asked Xiaobei to go to Xuantai Doctor to help Jiang Qinse check his body first.

A quarter of an hour later, Emperor Hengde arrived, accompanied by Gu Tingge.

The two didn't care about Jiang Yinglou, and went directly into the house to see Jiang Qinse.

Jiang Qinse had already stopped coughing, but she was lying on the bed crying non-stop, looking depressed and unable to live.

She cried for a long time, a pair of good-looking apricot eyes swollen into walnuts, the right side of her face was high and swollen, and there were obvious slap marks, she only put on the quilt at will, the buttons of her clothes were torn, her neck and small pieces of skin were exposed, and the strangulation marks quickly spread and changed color, turning into hideous red and swollen marks.

The plum blossoms that were in full bloom last night were broken by the wind and fell into the mud from the branches, which is both regrettable and distressing.

Emperor Hengde and Gu Tingge's faces immediately sank when they saw this situation, Zhaoling's laws are strict, and those who insult women and children should be hanged, but in the palace, under the heavy guard, the daughter of an important minister has been humiliated like this, which is not only a cowardice, but also a contempt for the law to challenge the authority of the royal family!

Emperor Hengde clenched his fists, and Gu Tingge said sharply: "Who was in charge of patrolling here last night, don't tell me what happened!" ”

After Gu Tingge finished speaking, the Praetorian Guards in charge of patrolling this area walked up to Emperor Hengde and knelt down and said loudly: "Your Majesty, last night was the subordinate in charge of patrolling here, and nothing special happened last night, but early this morning, Miss Jiang suddenly screamed in the room, and then drove the maid out of the room and locked the door, the maid didn't know what to do, so she went to find Young Master Jiang, but Miss Jiang didn't even see Young Master Jiang, and Young Master Jiang forced the maid to know that Miss Jiang seemed to be being bullied. ”

Gu Tingge's eyes condensed, oozing frost, and asked, "Since someone has bullied Miss Jiang, it is impossible not to leave a trace, do you dare to say that nothing special happened last night?" ”

The man slammed his head on the ground and said in a loud voice: "My subordinates really didn't hear any abnormal noise last night, and I didn't see any suspicious people. ”

Now it's not a matter of punishing people, it's the key to find out who bullied Jiang Qinse.

If someone can sneak into Jiang Qinse's room under heavy guard, humiliate her unknowingly, and then leave in style, and wait until the next day to find out, then this person's skills are too strong, if he can't find him out this time, will he go into the Dongxuan Palace to assassinate the king next time?

If there is no such person who humiliated Jiang Qinse, everything is just a trouble, and the intentions of the person who planned this matter are also quite sinister, if he is not found out, he may dare to seek power and usurp the throne next time.

No matter which kind of truth it is, it is not a good thing for Zhaoling, Emperor Hengde's face is extremely ugly, he walked to the table and sat down, and ordered in a cold voice: "Chuan I order, everyone in the palace will stand by from now on, no one can move around at will, please enter the palace of Lord Zheng of Dali Temple, I am here to watch, before the end of the Winter Gui Festival, the truth of this matter must be ascertained!" ”

The order was passed down quickly, and Xiaobei invited the imperial doctor to come over, and the imperial doctor immediately went to help Jiang Qinse check his pulse and check the injury.

Jiang Qinse's face was swollen high, but it only looked very serious, but in fact, the injury was actually very light, and she didn't hang herself for a long time, but her skin was delicate and white, so she looked a little hideous.

The imperial doctor gave her a little trauma medicine, and wrote a calming prescription for the doctor to take to suffer.

Waiting for the doctor girl to leave, the imperial doctor knelt in front of Emperor Hengde and truthfully stated Jiang Qinse's injury, and when he finished speaking, Emperor Hengde asked, "Has Miss Jiang ever lost her temper?" ”

This was a straightforward question, and there were so many foreign men present, Jiang Qinse gritted her teeth and still couldn't hold back, and cried again.

The imperial doctor was surprised and hesitated: "Miss Jiang's pulse is a little vain, it should be caused by being frightened and a little angry, but the other ministers can't see it, the importance of women's reputation, the old ministers dare not say anything, Your Majesty can ask an experienced grandmother in the palace to check Miss Jiang's body." ”

There are special grandmothers in the palace who are dedicated to giving people physical examinations, but they are all palace maids who have been selected to serve people in the palace, Jiang Qinse is the daughter of the chief of the three princes, and she is a person who is noble-born, second only to the princess in Zhaoling.

Jiang Qinse never thought that she would face such a shame and humiliation one day, she gritted her teeth and endured it for a long time, she couldn't hold back, forced herself to get out of bed and knelt down in front of Emperor Hengde, and pleaded with her last self-esteem: "Your Majesty, no matter what the truth is, if something like this happens, the courtiers will have no shame to face the eyes of their families and the world, and ask Your Majesty to allow the courtiers to lose their hair and become nuns, and the green lantern ancient Buddha will always be accompanied, and the Buddha can be washed away from this filth by chanting the Buddha every day." ”

Jiang Qinse's tone was resolute, revealing a sharp air from his bones, but there was a kind of impressive temperament.

She is the daughter of the Jiang family, and she is completely qualified to be the crown princess in terms of family background and talent, and it happened in the palace, how could Emperor Hengde let her lose her hair like this if she was not clear?

Emperor Hengde suppressed his anger and comforted Jiang Qinse in a warm voice: "With me here, I won't let you be wronged in vain, you wait for me to find out the truth first." ”

Jiang Qinse couldn't wait for a moment, and wanted to continue pleading, but heard Emperor Hengde ask: "Think about it, did you see any suspicious people last night, who was so bold as to dare to humiliate you?" ”
