Chapter 735: Coup d'état
The cold dishes have already been served, and the hot dishes have not yet been served. At this time, seeing Cen Guifei nodding her head, the maid and the eunuch passed the dishes.
Zhao Ruxi saw that there was no news from the front, she didn't want Xiao Lingyan to go back to the front now, and was about to tell Cen Guifei that she went out with Xiao Lingyan to say a few words, when she saw a little eunuch running in in a panic, and said hurriedly: "Wang, princess, the front...... Something went wrong. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince...... killed the prince, and also slashed King An. ”
"Bang dang", Princess Qian's chopsticks fell to the ground.
"You, you...... What did you say? The crown princess and Cen Guifei asked urgently in unison.
Xiao Lingyan also stepped forward and grabbed the little eunuch's arm: "Who was cut?" ”
The little eunuch only looked at Princess Qian. Apparently he is from the palace of King Qian. The prince was killed, and he came to report it.
"Lord, Lord, Lord, he ......," Princess Qian asked tremblingly.
"I was stabbed in the chest by the prince, and I lost a lot of blood, and the imperial doctor said, and the imperial doctor said......" The little eunuch snorted, and did not dare to say the following words.
Princess Qian's body shook and fainted.
"Princess, princess......" cried the maid.
The crown princess got up, lifted her skirt and ran outside. The maid she brought hurriedly followed.
"Mother concubine......" Cen Peixuan looked at Cen Guifei.
Xiao Lingyan didn't wait for Cen Guifei to say anything, so he said, "I'll take a look." With that, he hurried outside.
The previous situation was something he wanted to avoid, but if he didn't come out at this time, it would be too cold. Besides, since the Imperial Doctor has arrived, the previous situation should have been controlled.
Zhao Ruxi shouted: "Lord Wang, take a few people." ”
After her reminder, Cen Guifei came back to her senses.
The eldest son didn't know what to do in front of her, and she couldn't afford to lose the younger son again.
"Little Five, you wait." As she spoke, Concubine Cen called several of her guards and eunuchs, and asked them to follow King Qi to the front, telling them to protect King Qi.
Seeing this, Cen Peixuan glared at Zhao Ruxi with her eyes.
King An's life and death in front of him were uncertain, and Zhao Ruxi only cared about Xiao Lingyan's safety.
She was also anxious, and she really wanted to go and see it like the crown princess. But she had a big belly and didn't dare to move at all. Besides, there are Cen Guifei and Xiao Lingyan, and there is no need for her to go ahead.
Zhao Ruxi didn't bother to pay attention to her. Seeing Xiao Lingyan leave with someone, she went to the table of the old lady and the Zhu family, sat there with them, and quietly waited for the movement outside.
"System, has the chaos in front of you subsided? Was Xiao Lingyan in danger in the past? She asked inwardly.
The system has been paying attention to the situation in front of it, and then it replied: "Calmed down, what should be controlled has been controlled?" There will be no more danger. ”
Zhao Ruxi was relieved at this time.
What was the situation on the prince's side some time ago? She knows it very well through the system.
The prince himself is suspicious and irritable, and he has been drugged by the spies around him for a long time in the past six months? Leads to a more irritable personality? If you get the slightest stimulation, you'll go crazy. Some time ago, a big deal of the crown prince was unleashed, and the instigators found out pointed directly at the four princes.
Those who come to the feast are not allowed to bring swords. But who would dare to search for the prince? And if someone encouraged him to carry a dagger? It is not surprising that such a thing happened to provoke him at the feast again.
At this time, the palace must be locked and tracked? They want to say goodbye and go home? We'll have to wait at least an hour.
At this time, Princess Qian had woken up and was about to go to the front crying. Concubine Cen Guifei sent a few more people to escort her to the front.
After Princess Qian left, the hall was completely quiet? Who doesn't dare to speak or move? Fear of causing excesses in some people. Only Cen Guifei presided over the middle palace, and she was worried that someone in the side hall would go out and walk around, so she hurriedly sent someone to maintain order.
A quarter of an hour later, Xiao Lingyan sent the eunuch back to deliver the message, saying that the prince had drunk two glasses of wine at the banquet? I had an argument with King Qian, and in a state of emotion, I suddenly took out a dagger from my arms and stabbed it into King Qian's chest? King An went to stop him, and accidentally cut off three fingers of his right hand. King Qian was not saved; Has King An's hand stopped bleeding? His life is in good condition for the time being.
Cen Guifei and Cen Peixuan almost fainted when they heard the news.
Historically, the throne has not been inherited by a disabled prince? Not to mention that King An broke three fingers on his right hand? I can't hold a pen and write anymore. Doesn't that mean? Is he completely hopeless with the throne?
The family members of the crown princess and Princess Qian are still there, and the faces of both families are like ashes, and the others are also silent.
If the crown prince kills someone, he will definitely not be able to inherit the throne anymore. The second prince is disabled, the fourth prince is dead, and now only the third prince and the fifth prince remain.
The capital is about to usher in a major reshuffle.
Many people's eyes are on Princess Lu of Ming.
Lu Shi was calm this time, and did not show a happy look. But the sparkling eyes revealed the excitement in her heart at this time.
The old lady and the Zhu family glanced at Zhao Ruxi, their eyes full of happiness.
Fortunately, the five princes came here just now, otherwise there might have been a fifth prince in the previous tragedy.
At the same time, there was a deep worry in the hearts of the two. Royal, it's horrible.
After staying in the hall for an hour, Xiao Lingyan came to pass the word in person and said to everyone: "It's okay, let's go home." The king has sent you to the gate of the palace. ”
The ladies supported each other, and went out of the palace gate with the people from the side hall and walked towards the palace gate. Xiao Lingyan sent a ten-member imperial guard team to escort them to the palace gate.
Xiao Lingyan and Zhao Ruxi glanced at each other, then went to deal with the questioning of Cen Guifei and Cen Peixuan, and took them to the place where Xiao Lingpu was recuperating.
When Zhao Ruxi came, Zhu and the old lady came in two carriages, and when they arrived at the palace gate, Zhu pulled Zhao Ruxi into their carriage together.
It wasn't until the carriage drove out of the palace and walked a long way to see the alley where the Suiping Bo Mansion was located from a distance that Zhu's nerves relaxed.
"Mother, you scratched me." Zhao Ruxi pulled her wrist out of her hand and rubbed the scratched area.
Only then did Zhu realize that he had been holding his daughter's wrist.
She sighed and didn't speak.
It wasn't until he returned to the hall and sat down, drank a cup of hot tea, and finally felt better that his body, which was trembling from fear and cold, that Zhu said, "Sister Xi, can you still stop your marriage?" Mother doesn't ask you to be prosperous and rich, but only to be safe. ”
The old lady also nodded vigorously.
Why isn't Zhao Ruxi like this? If Xiao Ke didn't dress as Xiao Lingyan, she wouldn't marry a royal person if she was killed.
Although she saw all the plots of today in the original book, and knew what would happen in the news of the system's investigation, she still felt scared by experiencing the cruelty of political struggle.
She didn't like it very much, and she was very uneasy.
