Right in front of Yi Ping, it was simply unbelievable for him without warning, the knife in the prince's hand had already pierced Feng Xing.

Yi Ping fell back in fright, he looked at Feng Xing's eyes widened, blood was spilling from his mouth, his face was completely shocked, he himself couldn't believe it, and shouted in a lost voice: "Your Highness, we were sent by the emperor to deliver the decree, how can you, how can you ......?"

He thought that the crown prince might be angry with them, punish them in various ways, and even secretly get rid of them when he returned to the palace, but he didn't expect that he would just kill them like that.

"General Feng broke into the tent of the palace and made the palace sicker," Fan Shenxi raised the handkerchief covering his mouth, which was stained with blood from nowhere, "Shouldn't he be killed?" ”

He pulled out the knife, and Feng Xing slammed into the end, and the falling handkerchief fluttered across his dead face.

Yi Ping was completely speechless, and the sound of "clang" startled him when the prince threw the knife at his feet.

"General Yi still has something to say?"

Yi Ping swallowed his saliva and shook his head.

It is rumored that the prince is tyrannical, and he will kill if he wants to kill when his temper comes, and he will not care about your identity, during this time, the prince has a good reputation among the people, and he almost thought that the rumor was really just a rumor.

When he really saw it, he regretted it so much that he wished he didn't know anything.

"Then please ask General Yi to go back, this palace really needs to rest, you shouldn't want anything to happen to this palace's body because of you again, right?"

Hearing this, Yi Ping hurriedly got up, kowtowed to Fan Shenxi a few times, and ran out of the prince's tent in a panic.

Lin Zi also asked people to drag Feng Xing's body away, dispose of the bloodstains, and only asked, "Since you killed Feng Xing, why did you want to leave Yi Ping's life?" ”

"That's fun, isn't it?"

Fan Shenxi, who did not have Qiu Xiaobei by his side, faded all tenderness, even if he was smiling, he was like the Yin Mansion in July, creepy, although the plans were under control, he wanted to go to the bloodiest one.

Bloodlust has long been engraved in his bones, but he is more and more reluctant to expose it in front of Xiaobei.

"Feng Xing is easy to be impulsive, everything he does is almost instigated by Yi Ping, he fights in the front and kills Feng Xing, it will make Yi Ping," he smiled with interest, "I am afraid all day long, day and night I am afraid that Bengong will kill him at any time, isn't this more painful than letting him die." ”

"Your Majesty?"

"Don't care, Feng Xing Yiping tried to break into the tent of the palace with a knife, but many people witnessed it with their own eyes, killing chickens and making an example of monkeys, and this palace wants to see who the next monkey is." He raised his hand, "Pass the order, speed up, and return to Beijing." ”

Lin Zi also nodded and retreated, but soon came back again: "Your Highness, a monkey is here." ”

Fan Shen turned around in surprise.

"But it's not Yiping's party, it's Xiaojun, the right protector, and he will also return to Beijing this time."

"What is he going to do?"

"Don't you think of it, naturally you came to ask Xiaobeizi, you are not here, he will come to ask every once in a while, Mo Jue is afraid of him."

"Tell him that Hongu is missing."

When Lin Zi was about to go out to send Xiaojun away, Fan Shenxi called out to him again: "Wait." ”

……

Fan Shenxi successfully caught up with the large army, and quietly changed with his stand-in, and also took the opportunity to punish the two generals who passed the decree.

On the other side, there was a carriage behind the large army, Qiu Xiaobei, who was wearing a black cloak and holding a child, lifted the curtains, and watched the few infantry behind the large army gradually disappear from sight.

She sighed, a little nostalgic for the time before the child was born, when she was still the "eunuch", she could accompany Fan Shenxi's side, and there was no need to separate in order to hide, although she would also enter Beijing and live in a house somewhere in Kyoto, but the barrier of a palace wall, just like heaven and earth, how could it be so simple for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to "go down" to the palace once, let alone return to Beijing this time, the emperor didn't know how closely he stared at him.

I can't eat and sleep together together every day, thinking of this, Qiu Xiaobei sniffed and wiped her non-existent tears, pitiful.

Seeing this, Jing An smiled: "Don't worry, master, Your Highness will definitely not be able to bear not seeing you for too long." ”

Qiu Xiaobei raised his eyebrows proudly, but he still had to pretend to be modest: "No, men are all that virtuous, don't be optimistic, who knows which vixen will hook up, how can I have that charm, I can always tie his heart." ”

Speaking of fox spirits, she thought of Chili, and she didn't know if the fox would return to the palace.

"Okay, don't pretend, Your Highness's feelings for you, we can't see clearly." Jing'an shook her head amusedly, she also looked out the window and asked, "Master, are we also leaving?" ”

The march had already gone far.

"Well, let's go."

……

As soon as the speed was accelerated, most of them successfully returned to Beijing two days later, and the large troops were arranged in the barracks outside the city, and then the arrangements for how the soldiers would rest and go home to visit their relatives had to wait for the later arrangements.

And several meritorious generals entered the palace on behalf of the soldiers.

The emperor was very happy, at least on the surface, he praised many soldiers greatly, and promised that there would be many rewards one by one, and said that the celebration banquet had been prepared, and if the grade was sufficient, they could enter the palace to participate in the palace dinner.

The whole face has been rewarded, and the specific grade and so on, the emperor needs to look back and think about it, and he has to draw up a holy decree and so on before canonization.

Subsequently, the emperor turned his attention to Fan Shenxi, who was at the forefront of the soldiers.

"As for the crown prince......"

"Father!" Fan Shen shouted loudly, interrupting what the emperor wanted to say, and saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in a wheelchair, folding his hands in front of his chest, bending forward, like a person kneeling on the ground, "Father, the son of the emperor implores the father and the emperor to make the decision for the son!" ”

The emperor's eyelids jumped, instinctively knowing that the prince was going to do something, but the opportunity was robbed, if he turned a deaf ear to the prince's pleas now, so many generals were here, and the prince came back from fighting with them, naturally they were of the same heart, and if he wanted to do this, it would definitely chill them.

I had to endure my dissatisfaction, and asked calmly: "Why did the prince say this, now, you are not only the prince under one person, but also the hero of the Great Fan Dynasty who won the battle and returned triumphantly, who would dare to bully you?" ”

Others may think that the emperor, who is a father, is ridiculing his son, but only Fan Shenxi can hear that the emperor is really sarcastic about him.

But so what, Fan Shenxi won't care what the emperor thinks of him.

"Father, the son wants to sue, the crown princess!"

The generals who followed Fan Shenxi didn't react much when they heard this, but frightened the courtiers next to them.

Prince, sue the crown princess?

The crown princess has been in the East Palace, and the prince went to the border to fight, why did he target the crown princess as soon as he came back? Could it be that the rumors that the crown princess did those things are true, and the prince is very unwelcome to see the princess now?

But in front of everyone, he is going to sue the crown princess, is it too embarrassing for the crown princess and Wei Guogong, does the prince want to tear his face with Wei Guogong completely?

Wei Guogong also came to greet his son-in-law today, who knew that as soon as this son-in-law opened his mouth, he called his daughter's name, Wei Guogong came out and knelt down: "Prince, the little girl and you are married......" He turned around and knelt down towards the emperor, "Your Majesty, this, what ......is this?"

"Nonsense." The royal family lowered their faces, "Prince, you and the princess are embarrassed to talk about the matter between husband and wife, so you are not afraid that everyone will laugh at you?" ”

"Wei Qing, she is not the wife of her son, and she is not worthy!"

"You-"

"Father," Fan Shenxi faced him without fear when the royal family angrily pointed at him, "Wei Qing tried to hurt Erchen's children, and repeatedly wanted to attack Erchen, and even controlled the East Palace when Erchen went on an expedition, in your opinion, is it just a trivial matter between husband and wife who is bent on usurping power for the Wei family and attacking the prince and the prince's heir?" ”

The courtiers who were shocked and wanted to persuade didn't dare to speak out at this moment.

Only Wei Guogong shouted: "The emperor is wronged, since the little girl married the East Palace, she has been thinking about the prince, even if the prince doesn't like the little girl, he shouldn't have wronged the little girl so much, which makes the little girl embarrassed in the future!" ”

"Wei Guogong is not in a hurry." The emperor grabbed his hand on the armrest of the dragon chair, and was silent for a few breaths before asking in a deep voice: "Prince, do you know that if you say such a thing on such an occasion, if you have no evidence, even if you are my son and the crown prince of the dynasty, I must give an explanation to the Wei family." ”

Fan Shenxi smiled coldly and said: "Father, you are really selfless, your sons have suffered so much humiliation, you don't want to give your sons an explanation, so you want to give an explanation to the Wei family first?" ”

"You are presumptuous!" The emperor slapped the handrail heavily, but he secretly thought in his heart, the prince has always acted insolently, and his temper is strange and unusual, but in Hulai, he will not accuse him of his father in front of so many people, at least with superficial respect, the prince will still give him more or less to be a father and an emperor.

And today...... The emperor was secretly on guard.

So, after he was angry, he eased his emotions again, and said seriously: "You are my son, but as the lord of a country, I naturally want to be fair, if the crown princess is really as you say, I will definitely not let her go, but if I wronged her, I will not let you go either." ”

The corners of Fan Shenxi's mouth were undetectably lightly raised, full of ridicule, he was saying: "There is a servant girl by Erchen's side, because she takes care of Erchen, Erchen has some friendship with her, and later she was pregnant with Erchen's flesh and blood, which was a happy thing, but at that time, the father and the emperor pointed out Wei Qing, the daughter of Wei Guogong, to Erchen, and the emperor and grandmother felt that this Wei Qing was lively and lovely, but she didn't know that she was a femme fatale, and she was a ghost. When she knew that there was a favored person by her side, she was even bold enough to threaten her to get rid of her, how dare she let her know that woman was pregnant with the flesh and blood of this palace? ”

Speaking of this, Fan Shenxi showed sadness: "It is also said that the sons are incompetent, and it is ridiculous that a prince in the palace can be threatened by the daughter of a prince!" ”

Wei Guogong's face turned pale when he heard it, the prince laughed at himself for being incompetent, and anyone could hear it inside and outside the words, he was ridiculing Wei Guogong for his great power and low royal family, and he was covered by Wei Guogong, and even a little girl could climb to the head of the dignified prince.

"These are all the words of the prince." Wei Guogong expressed his loyalty to the emperor, "Your Majesty, the old minister is loyal to you, and has always done his duty for the emperor and the people of the Dafan Dynasty. The matter of marrying into the East Palace, others may not know, but the emperor should know, the old minister...... The old minister originally disagreed, it was the little girl who admired the prince since she was a child, and vowed to accompany the prince before agreeing to her to enter the East Palace, how could she plot for my Wei family? ”

Fan Shen listened quietly to Wei Guogong's heartfelt remarks, and only then did he ask: "Has Wei Guogong finished speaking, can it be the turn of the palace to talk after speaking?" ”

Wei Guogong's eyes flashed, and he simply didn't reply to the prince's words, and slammed his head directly towards the emperor and couldn't afford it.

"Wei Guogong is right," the emperor said, "I have known Wei Guogong for so many years, and I still know about Wei Guogong's character, prince, what you said, what is the evidence." ”

"Father, you don't know your face but don't know your heart, you have to be careful if you believe in a person's character and make a guarantee, otherwise once you are slapped in the face, it will really damage the majesty of your father."

The emperor, who was blinded by such obvious ridicule, was so angry that he couldn't wait to drag this rebel out and cut it down, how could this bastard thing become more and more bastard!

But with so many people watching, he had to endure this anger alive.

The current crown prince can't be cured by a single sin of disobedience, haven't you seen so many generals, all on the side of the prince!

As soon as the prince beckoned, the eunuch of the East Palace, who had been waiting for a long time, bowed his head and walked over, and handed a pile of letter paper in his hand to Fan Shenxi.

If it weren't for Wei Qing's people who opened the door to Fan Shenyue, how could she get her own handwriting to forge letters in an attempt to frame her?

Today, then, give her real letters, and see how she justifies herself.

"These letters, no, they are called secret letters, to be more precise, they were intercepted by the people of the sons, why don't you ask the Taifu and the Prime Minister to help you take a look?"

After the emperor agreed, the Taifu came over first, bent over, held his palms together and held them above his head, and waited for Fan Shenxi to put the letter in his hand before he straightened up to check it.

In this, there is Wei Qing who wrote to the Wei family, which really tells about the situation in the East Palace, and also focuses on what the prince has done, if this letter is true, these alone can punish the crown princess.

Two of them are relatively short, but they are not letters to the Wei family, but they are asking for a person to help investigate the little eunuch Bei Gonggong next to the prince.

"Father-in-law Pei, in order to protect the woman, let her dress up as a eunuch, although he broke the rules, but this is the first child of Erchen, the royal heir."

"If that's the case," the prime minister said, "then the merits and demerits can be offset by the merits, and the great Fan Dynasty, how important the imperial heir is." ”

The emperor opened his mouth, and finally chose to shut up.

Fan Shenxi continued: "Of course, you can argue that this letter is fake, but the handwriting on it is indeed Wei Qing's own handwriting, and the seal on it is also Wei Qing's private property, no matter whether she is a daughter of the Wei family, whether the crown princess is qualified to have a seal, these are all verified, and the one who has been entrusted with the investigation of Wei Qing in his heart has been found, it is a person from the Wei family, what is it, just ask it." ”

The emperor held his breath and nodded, and soon, the man was brought up, along with information about this person.

It is right to confirm that he is a servant of the Wei family, and he has been loyal to the Wei family since his ancestors, so there is no suspicion that the prince planted people in advance.

After this person was pressed up, he gritted his teeth and did not admit the matter on the letter, Fan Shenxi asked him, whether Wei Qing had never told him to do things, never asked him to send private messages to himself and his family, whether Wei Qing had never seen this crown princess after entering the East Palace, you must know that with the level of this little guy, even if Wei Guogong entered the palace to visit his daughter, the entourage with him would not be him.

After such a problem, the little girl was afraid of saying the wrong thing, so she denied it all, saying that after the third miss married into the East Palace, she had never seen the third miss, let alone done anything for the third miss.

Fan Shenxi smiled and looked at Yi Liyun, the commander of the Praetorian Guard beside the emperor.

Although Yi Liyun's face was a little resistant, he still stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I have seen this little maid meet the palace maid next to the crown princess, and the palace maid gave something to this person, but as soon as they saw the inferior and others walking by, they hurriedly separated. ”

There is no need for Fan Shenxi to speak, someone asked: "If there is no problem, why be so weak-hearted, and this little guy just said that he has never seen the princess, has never done anything for the princess, if he really doesn't, how can he be so familiar with the palace maid next to the princess?" ”

Under the heavy evidence, the little guy couldn't resist the pressure and said everything, he said that he was just helping the eldest lady to check some things and pass on some news to the Wei family, and he didn't do anything bad.

Asked if the letters were genuine, he confessed.

At this point, the crown princess tried to kill the prince's heir, and Wei Guogong, who was an accomplice to the crown princess, could not say that he had bad intentions, but it was indeed decided that the matter of private conferral was decided, and others would not care when the crown princess started to hurt the pregnant woman, and they would not pursue whether the princess hurt that woman and whether it was contrary to the time when she pretended to be a eunuch.

Wei Guogong's face was pale, and sweat was like rain.

After proving that the letters were genuine, the rest of the matter was easier and more serious.

During the period when the crown prince went on the expedition, it was confirmed that the crown princess had stolen the prince's seal, falsely passed on the prince's instructions, and tried to seize the inner six divisions in the hands of the prince, and tried in vain to control the East Palace, wanting to remove the guards loyal to the prince in the East Palace.

It can be proved from the fact that the crown princess frequently intervened in the affairs of the six divisions, and indeed replaced several East Palace guards during this time.

All of these things, which are too numerous to read, can scare the courtiers present to death, Wei Guogong tried to defend himself at first, but when the evidence was laid out one by one, he knelt there, and couldn't say a word.

Speaking of which, the crown prince is really ruthless enough, if this kind of thing is said in private, even if it is only the four of the prince, the emperor, the crown princess and the Duke of Wei Guogong, there is room for change in this matter, but under the witness of so many courtiers and so many generals who have returned from the election, even if the emperor wants to show favoritism, he can't find a good excuse.

It's really these charges, any one of them is put on the emperor himself, the emperor can't bear it, and in private he can still ask the prince to endure it, in front of the public, how can he open this mouth.

Therefore, this is the reason why the prince wants to sue the crown princess today, because even if it is a day or two late, Wei Qing and Wei Guogong will clean their tails, and once he reveals that he wants to sue the crown princess, he will immediately let the emperor solve it in private, so the prince will be caught off guard today, when he returns today!

After all the evidence of the crime was presented, Fan Shenxi shouted angrily: "Please save your son, save your grandson, your son has been checked, their abduction must be related to Wei Qing, in order to save the mother and son, Erchen did not hesitate to bring them to the battlefield, but he still couldn't escape Wei Qing's claws." Father, the emperor, and the sons are at fault, but they are all innocent, and the sons are willing to be punished, just asking their mother and son to come back safely. ”

The generals who had not said anything knelt down at this time, and He Zhengdao: "Your Majesty, the ministers don't know these grievances and grievances in the prince's East Palace, but that woman is a strange person, she cracked the miasma poison of the Purple Army, saved thousands of soldiers and people, she is a meritorious person, the prince privately took the concubine and children to the battlefield may be against the laws of the Dafan Dynasty, but fortunately the woman came, otherwise today, it is not us who will return triumphantly, so the prince is not at fault, but meritorious, the ministers can not be rewarded, I only ask the emperor to forgive that woman, she is the life-saving benefactor of our thousands of soldiers! ”

"I beg the emperor to forgive the prince and his benefactor, and ask the emperor to save his benefactor and child." All the soldiers knelt on the ground in unison and pleaded.

If the emperor really uses military merits to offset today, even if the soldiers themselves say it, he will not be good in the hearts of the people, not only can he not blame the prince and the woman, but he has to find a way to save it, and even the reward should be rewarded, greatly rewarded.

The emperor couldn't be more depressed in his heart.

He glanced at the useless Wei Guogong, and ordered in a deep voice that Wei Qing should be sent into the Inner Ting Division, and he must be strictly interrogated, and the whereabouts of the woman and the child must be asked.

At that time, Wei Qing was still in the East Palace, waiting for the prince to come back after facing the saint, the emperor already knew about Qiu Xiaobei, and he would definitely not let her go, nor would he let go of the prince easily, Wei Qing waited to see how the prince responded, and heard that Qiu Xiaobei was taken away when he was in Jincheng, she secretly thought in her heart that she was afraid that her mother and son would die early, right?

In the few days when she was locked up in the small Buddha hall, she did learn a lesson, but she was scared on the surface, and she was even more resentful in her heart, hating the emperor, hating the queen, hating the prince, hating that Xiaobei!

She acted carefully with her tail between her legs for a while, and as the prince left for a long time, she couldn't help but stretch out her paws, and indeed secretly communicated with her father, wanting to take advantage of the prince's absence, to install someone in the inner six divisions and control the East Palace.

But it was so easy, she did replace a few guards, but it was those guards who ran to provoke her and force her to order punishment.
