Chapter 339: By Order
Who would be the one who has the courage to make trouble in secret and deal with the second prince?
Who else could there be?
Anger flashed in Emperor Xuanhe's eyes, and his voice suddenly sank: "I will issue an order for a thorough investigation, so you don't have to worry about this matter." ”
Empress Pei and the six princes breathed a sigh of relief and thanked them together.
Emperor Xuanhe thought for a while, then opened his mouth and ordered: "Gonggong Zhao, go to Xuanhe to meet Captain Xuanhe." ”
Zhao Gonggong retreated, and after a while, He Qi stepped into the bedroom.
As the commander of the Son of Heaven's own army, He Qi has been staying outside the dormitory for such a long time, and today is the first time he has been summoned by the Son of Heaven. He Qi showed his excitement and joy at seeing the Son of Heaven at the right time, and bowed his hand: "The last general, He Qi, I have seen the emperor." ”
Emperor Xuanhe also felt kind when he saw the familiar handsome face that he had not seen for a long time, and said with a faint smile: "Captain He is exempt." It's been a hard time for you. ”
"Serving the emperor is the responsibility of the last general, even if he goes to the soup, the last general will not frown." He Qi replied without thinking.
One faction is loyal.
A smile flashed in Emperor Xuanhe's eyes, and his voice softened a little: "I summoned you here today because I have an errand handed over to you. There is no need to go to the soup, just go back to the capital. ”
"You go to the Great Prince's Mansion and pass on my message."
"There are many rumors in the capital, involving the second prince, and there must be villains secretly doing it. The eldest prince was ordered to quell the rumors within five days, and find out who was behind the scenes, and severely punished. ”
He Qi received the order in a deep voice.
Cheng Jinrong was secretly amazed in his heart, subconsciously raised his head, and glanced at He Qiyao from afar.
Emperor Xuanhe deserves to have sat on the dragon chair for many years, and the emperor's mental means are difficult to resist.
The rumors of the Second Prince's Mansion are more likely related to Emperor Zheng's mother and son. Emperor Xuanhe directly issued an edict and ordered the eldest prince to investigate the matter thoroughly. The eldest prince must have an "explanation" to the Son of Heaven and everyone within five days.
If the eldest prince wants to protect himself, he has to find a convincing person to come out for the dead ghost. Or, you have to show that you are useless and ask the Son of Heaven for sin.
Whether it is the former or the latter, the eldest prince has suffered a big loss this time, and it can be said that stealing chickens is not a loss of rice!
Empress Pei and the Sixth Prince also quickly figured out the mystery and stretched their brows.
……
He Qi enshrined the holy metaphor and ordered dozens of imperial guards to accompany him and rode back to Beijing together.
Zhu Qijue, Ye Lingyun, Zheng Qinghuai, and Jiang Yao are all on the list of returning to Beijing.
After three months of stuffiness in the imperial village, he rode a long-lost horse and galloped on the official road. The crowd was like a wild horse that had escaped its cage, not to mention how happy it was.
It's a pity that the weather is hot, the road surface is exposed all day long, and the horses are nailed to the horseshoe, and they can't afford to keep hurrying. After every hour, the people had to dismount and rest, and by the way, they would feed the horses and recuperate.
During the break, Zhu Qijue and the others naturally gathered around He Qi.
The royal guards were accustomed to it, and walked a few steps away in a playful manner, so as not to be suspected of eavesdropping.
In fact, a few people didn't say anything important about confidentiality. What to do when returning to Beijing on this trip, only He Qi knows. Although they have a good personal relationship, they don't dare to ask random questions. Gossiping together during breaks is purely a natural habit that has been used for many years.
Friends, you say a word, but Jiang Yao has a stuffy face, and his mood is not very good.
The reason for this is well known to everyone.
The second princess, Jiang Min, is the sister of Jiang Yao's in-laws.
The second princess was injured and had a fetal gas, and after Jiang Yao heard the news, he was angry and angry for several days. I just hate that I can't go back to Beijing without permission, otherwise, I can't help but rush to the Second Prince's Mansion a long time ago.
He Qi was ordered to return to Beijing on an errand, Jiang Yao was the first to take the initiative to ask Ying, He Qi didn't ask much, and called Jiang Yao's name.
Before leaving, He Qi specially told Jiang Yao: "The emperor already knows about the second princess's injury and fetal gas. The second prince was also talked about because of this matter, and he was quite embarrassed. When you return to Beijing this time, if you meet the second prince, you must try your best to restrain yourself and not show resentment and dissatisfaction. ”
Jiang Yao should have responded, in the end, he was young and vigorous, and he was running all the way, and this stuffy breath was blocked in his chest, and he couldn't hold it and couldn't spit it out. The more I thought about it, the more annoyed I became.
Zhu Qijue leaned his elbow against Jiang Yao and reminded in a low voice: "Hey, so many people are watching, you should be more restrained." ”
"yes, don't show too much." Ye Lingyun also lowered his voice: "With so many people looking at it, if it reaches the ears of His Royal Highness the Second Prince, it is always not beautiful." ”
Zheng Qinghuai muttered in a low voice: "That is, His Royal Highness the Second Prince." Changing to a brother-in-law from an ordinary background, Jiang Liu would have already come to the door. ”
Isn't it?
How can the concubine of the Patriotic Mansion be bullied?
However, she married the heavenly family and became the princess. was wronged, and the mother's family not only couldn't support their anger, but also had to cover up for the second prince in front of others. This sullen breath is really sour and suffering.
He Qi's gaze swept over a group of friends, and finally, it fell on Jiang Yao's face, and said lightly: "If you want to support your sister, you have to be able to stand up straight." ”
Jiang Yao calmed his mind and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, I know the severity and will not be impulsive and reckless." ”
He Qi reached out and patted Jiang Yao's shoulder.
Jiang Yao replied with a helpless wry smile.
Zhu Qijue and the others were also quite unhappy in their hearts, and they each sighed in their hearts.
……
Shen Shizheng.
Dozens of horses, parked outside the mansion of the Great Prince.
He Qi was the first to dismount, and dozens of imperial guards also dismounted.
The concierge of the Great Prince's Mansion had a pair of sharp eyes, and he recognized at a glance who the handsome young man in the lead was, and he didn't dare to slack off, and immediately opened the main door to greet him: "It turned out to be Captain He." ”
He Qi is the commander of the imperial guards, a celebrity in front of the Son of Heaven, and has been in the Huangzhuang with the Son of Heaven for this period of time. At this time, I suddenly came to the Great Prince's Mansion, and I didn't have to think much to know that I must have come by order.
He Qi swept his eyes and said lightly: "The captain of this school was ordered to pass on the message, and immediately ordered someone to invite His Royal Highness the Great Prince to return to his house." ”
The porter was busy, let people enter the house to spread the word, and sent people to the palace to deliver the letter.
Dozens of imperial guards entered the Great Prince's Mansion together and were led into the outer courtyard to rest and wait. He Qi was led into the main hall.
He Qi remained silent, sitting upright and waiting.
Soon, a beautiful maid came, and Ying Ying was blessed: "The slave maid has seen the third son." ”
The one who called the third prince of He Qi was the personal maid Green Willow of the eldest princess He Chu.
Luliu grew up in the Pingguo Mansion since he was a child, and later became a dowry maid and married into the Great Prince's Mansion together. At this time, when I saw He Qi, I was excited and happy, and there were even faint tears in my eyes.
"The third prince, the princess and concubine have been recuperating for many days, and today I suddenly heard that the third prince is coming, and I am overjoyed." Lu Liu saluted again, his eyes were full of pleading: "Your Highness has not returned to the house yet, please ask the third prince to go with the slave maid to visit the prince and concubine Niangniang." ”
He Qi sneered in his heart.
