Chapter Seventy-Three: Do what the reserve and deputy should do
Cui Langru hurried to the East Palace, only to see Su Fengjin kneeling outside the East Palace, and Xi Gongcheng was trying to persuade something, but Su Fengjin didn't move.
"What's going on?" When Cui Langru heard about today's incident, he knew that the East Palace would not be peaceful, but he didn't expect Su Fengjin to be like this.
"But His Highness punished him?"
Father-in-law Xi hurriedly replied: "Oh, Lord Cui, how can His Highness punish the guards?" It was Wei Shu who wanted to kneel, and the slave persuaded him here for a long time, but Wei Shu refused to go back. ”
Cui Langru didn't speak again, and entered the hall directly, only to see Suo Ji sitting on the chair in a daze, and the scar on his forehead was swollen. Those who dare to do it to the deputy of Chu don't have to think about it to know who it is.
Cui Langru leaned closer and asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty is doing it for Wei Yu today?" ”
"It has nothing to do with him, it's because of the main palace."
He didn't lie, it was indeed not because of Su Fengyi's actions, but because he protected Su Fengyi.
"Your Majesty can't see who this palace cares about and who he protects, he wants a cold-blooded and ruthless person to sit in the East Palace, and he can kill and kill without any worries and taboos. Bengong violated his taboo, but he couldn't help but speak for Feng Yi. ”
Cui Langru knew in his heart, "But now Su Fengyi is still kneeling outside, isn't this a disappointment to His Highness?" Your Highness doesn't care about it? ”
"If this palace doesn't let him kneel, won't he kneel? Langru, go back, there is nothing to do in this palace. ”
Cui Langru stood silent for a while, then sighed, "Why don't you apply some medicine too!" ”
The night was dark, Su Fengjin was still kneeling, there was no one around, she touched her cold knees and sighed.
"Since you're sighing, why can't you get up?"
Suo Ji, who appeared at some point, stood in front of her, and her condescending appearance made Su Fengjin shake her heart, but the scar on her forehead was ......
Seeing this, Su Fengjin felt guilty in her heart, "Let His Highness suffer." ”
Suo Ji stretched out his hand and said softly, "Get up!" The palace should know about you kneeling down to ask for sin, and your majesty will calm down your anger a little. ”
"It's numb!"
Suo Ji couldn't help but smile, bent down and dragged her up into the hall, "It's the first time to go back to the palace to serve others, you should be honored." ”
"It's the first time Your Highness has been injured for someone else, right?" Su Fengjin rubbed her knees, "Weichen should also be honored." ”
"Hmm. It wasn't an injury, but it was just hit by the spine. ”
"The spine of the book smashed like this?" Su Fengjin felt uncomfortable in her heart, and looked at him worriedly, "It can be seen how angry Your Majesty is, it is indeed mine today." ”
"I sat down, and I said what was right or wrong. Bengong has said a long time ago, if you can't do it, Bengong can help you, Donggong Wei has been lazy for many years, and it has long been out of fashion. Those people praise the high and step on the low, so naturally they will not give you money easily. ”
Su Fengjin lowered her eyes and nodded, "Today, Weichen threatened each other with Ji Qiu's privacy, but if he keeps a hand, presumably tomorrow Ji Qiu will go up to ask for guilt, and His Majesty will forgive Your Highness." ”
"He wasn't angry because of this, it was because the palace was too protective of you. He didn't like me to stand up to him like this. ”
"Your Highness......" Su Fengjin shook her lips and reached out to grab the corner of his clothes, "Your Highness, you don't need to protect Weichen like this, Weichen came to His Highness's side to assist His Highness, and wanted to bring down King Yong'an, not to seek refuge." His Royal Highness is the deputy prince of the country, just do what the prince should do. ”
"What about you?"
You will protect me, who will protect you?
"Wechen...... Come and do what Wechen should do. ”
Su Fengjin's eyes were full of murderous aura, and Suo Ji couldn't help frowning, "What do you want to do?" Kill the King of Yong'an? Still is...... Do you simply want the palace to be stable? ”
"These two are inseparable, Weichen really wants to borrow the hand of His Royal Highness to make King Yongan fall down and be in pain, but now Weichen feels that if it is just like that, he will be too sorry for His Highness. Therefore, Weichen sincerely hopes that His Royal Highness can inherit the unification, because only His Royal Highness can make this great beam for generations to come. ”
Suo Ji and her looked at each other for a long time, lowered their eyes, and didn't know what it was like in their hearts, maybe this shouldn't be something that could be studied deeply. The two are indeed inseparable, so why bother to tell why?
"Why do you have to Donggongwei? Hongu said that there is no need for protection. ”
Su Fengjin's legs were better, and she stood up, "In order to take the power of the world, nothing more than soldiers and money." The East Palace cannot be in charge of the army, lest His Majesty be jealous, and only the East Palace Guard can be used. Although there are few guards in the East Palace, they can also come in handy at critical moments. Your Highness doesn't have to worry, Weichen will definitely train the Donggong Guard well, so that it will become an elite force with one as ten, and it will be used by His Highness. ”
Suo Ji patted her on the shoulder, "Don't work too hard. ”
Early the next morning.
As soon as Su Fengjin opened her eyes in the side hall of the East Palace, a palace maid came to report, "Please change your clothes quickly, Your Highness is invited." ”
"What's the hurry?" Su Fengjin felt that it was not good, so she hurriedly washed and changed her clothes and went to the main hall.
Cui Langru turned his head to look at her, with a slightly different expression. Su Fengjin missed a beat in her heart, but she was afraid that it was a big deal, "Your Highness, what's wrong?" ”
Suo Ji was calm, but his face was gloomy, "Look at this ......"
Su Fengjin took it, it was a letter, she glanced at it a few times in a hurry, and gasped, "Ji Qiu is dead?" ”
"Not only to die, but to commit suicide by hanging a beam. At present, some people in the DPRK are participating in the Wei rate, saying that because of yesterday's incident, Ji Qiu was humiliated and committed suicide by hanging the beam. The official is excited, and he wants to lead you ......" Cui Langru was a little embarrassed.
"What do you want me to do? Want me to go to jail? Or do you want me to pay for his life? Su Fengjin sneered disdainfully, and was also furious.
"Guard rate!"
Yesterday, she had clearly handed over all her private belongings to Ji Qiu, and Ji Qiu's expression would never kill herself, so why just ......
Su Fengjin felt that this matter was not so simple, but at the moment, the courtiers would not care what the truth was.
"Your Highness, Master Cui, this matter started because of Weichen, and Weichen will take it all in his own right, and he will never affect the East Palace."
Suo Ji raised his eyes to look at her, his eyes were cold and disappointed, "In your eyes, this palace is such a person?" ”
Su Fengjin was speechless, ignoring Suo Ji's thoughts for a while, "Weichen knows that His Highness cares, but His Highness has done enough, if he participates in this matter today, I am afraid that His Majesty will be even more angry than yesterday." Your Highness, Weichen has nothing to fear, but I just ask Your Highness to find out the truth. ”
"Your Highness, the minister doesn't believe that Ji Shilang will commit suicide, if someone hadn't come to search for him today, his privacy would not have been known to outsiders at all. Yesterday, Wei Shu also returned the privacy records to him, and he had no reason to seek death again. I also ask Your Highness to allow the minister to check it out. Cui Langru also felt that things were very strange.
"This palace allows you to investigate, but will Your Majesty allow it? I'm afraid that Donggong won't be able to intervene in this matter. ”
Father-in-law Xi hurriedly came in with a panicked face, "Your Highness, the Criminal Department has sent guards to arrest ...... guards."
"When can the East Palace be casually in and out of the Criminal Department? Is there a will? ”
"Verbal, it's just that someone said that the prince had better not protect it anymore, but I am afraid that it will alarm Dali Temple, and the matter of Wei Rate will be even more difficult." Father-in-law Xi glanced up, "Your Highness, someone is coming...... It's not a good stubble. ”
