Chapter 147: Traces of the Wellhead
This voice is naturally Zhao Yu's sacrifice, although he doesn't like Yun Jifan, but he must abide by the etiquette rules, and he can't give Yun Jifan a chance to rumor that he is arrogant and ignores people.
"It's Prince Zhao, disrespectful and disrespectful, the first time we met, Prince Zhao is really as solemn and handsome as rumored, and it is really far from you in the next place."
Yun Jifan was modest, and bowed to Zhao Yu in a proper manner, and praised Zhao Yu who was obviously his opponent.
attracted everyone's original impression of him, which was originally just disdain to attend the banquet, but now they feel that he is humble and tolerant.
Yun Jifan is smiling anytime and anywhere, making others feel that he is gentle and abnormal.
But there are also many people who can't get used to him and think he is fake.
"Well, speaking of which, Prince Yun and I are also meeting for the first time, I wonder why the Prince didn't participate in many grand events before?"
Zhao Yu's words immediately aroused the resentment of a group of princes and nobles, they came to participate on time every year, but this Yun Jifan did not come here by virtue of his identity, it was really arrogant!
Just when everyone was talking, Yun Jifan smiled and bowed to everyone one by one.
"I'm sorry everyone, it's not Yun who is putting up a fight, it's really Yun who is weak and sickly, and he has been extremely weak since he was a child, so he has been using medicine all year round, so his body has already been infected with an unpleasant smell of medicine, I hope you will forgive me."
Some people didn't believe it, so they simply stepped forward to sniff his clothes, and they really smelled a strange medicinal fragrance.
Since it is not as bad as he said, but it doesn't smell good, it is no different from the usual medicinal fragrance, but it seems to have the aroma of more flowers and plants.
"In that case, let's go see the venue first."
Zhao Yusai didn't bother to listen to his explanation, so he replied casually and led Leng Du inside.
Yun Jifan smiled and followed, but as he walked, the white jade pendant on his body was light and bright, and there was a cloud word written on it.
The banquet was huge enough to build a luxurious palace, but in order to hold it in time without delay, it was changed to an open-air style.
The gold wire is tied with jade plaques piece by piece to form a large circle, and a half-meter-high platform is built from the ground for performing talents, and along the platform is a high platform, on which are lined with upholstered wooden chairs.
The order of the seats was naturally according to the official position and honor, and a few meters away from the circle were also placed the most powerful guards of each country for the sake of safety.
Now in preparation, the emperors of all countries are resting, and almost all of the princes and generals of the younger generation appear.
Empress Rong Wan wanted to stay in the palace to deal with affairs, and her brother, Rong Ta, the general of Zhenguo, came to inspect for her.
Rong Ta is dressed in a military uniform and heroic, and the sword on his waist is a sword that has followed him for many years, killing countless people, almost drinking blood for nourishment.
He is now already in his old age, but he is still alone, and Rong Wan's persuasion many times is still fruitless, and he always gets the sentence that the country is not at peace, how can he start a family.
He is determined to protect the country where he has lived since childhood, and he does not want to see the people and the fire and water, so he simply stays in the war-torn place all the year round, and every time he wins a battle, the people will be safer.
"A few of you, go over there and have a look, you go over there, especially His Majesty's tent, and give me a careful inspection, and there must be no mistakes!"
Rong Ta commanded his subordinates to disperse and began to check the safety of the place, and he did not dare to be idle, but went to the place where the queen was going to live.
——
This is the third time Zhao has come to see the well this month, and he looks at the well that is somehow naturally dry, but it is dark, and he can't see the bottom of the well.
Just as he was holding on to the mouth of the well and wanted to poke his head down, something suddenly slipped in his hand, making him almost unsteady and breaking out in a cold sweat.
When I got up, I saw that the hands that touched the wellhead were stained with mud, and the dirt had turned into mud, and it had not rained for a few days, so why did this mud appear at the wellhead?
So Zhao Yuyi's gaze fell on the mouth of the well, where there was a long trail of drag except for the handprint he had just imprinted.
It spreads from the mouth of the well in one direction, and it doesn't look deep, as if something has been dragged into the well.
So he walked to the mouth of the well, and walked forward in the direction of the trace, which turned out to be the direction of Luan Jiao Palace, which made Zhao Yuyi stop suddenly.
Thinking about it in the same place, although he didn't see it clearly when he came here in the middle of the night last time, he didn't find this trace by the light, so it must have happened after he left.
And Mama Feng will definitely have traces when she is thrown into the well, so there is only one possibility.
The last time he went, Mama Feng was clearly not dead!
But who was it that rumored that she was dead, and misled him about where to look in the middle of the night, so that he missed the time that Mama Feng was invested?
Today, Zhao Yuyi went out without a chill, and her embarrassing appearance in the morning was still vivid, so Zhao Yuyi was completely tired of her.
But just as Zhao Yuyi was thinking at the wellhead, Han Xintian quietly appeared in the distance and looked at him.
She looked at the man in the distance who was still entangled in the cause of Mama Feng's death, and understood that he disliked herself, so she made up her mind to help him find the truth.
Han Xinqian felt that there were only three people who were the most suspicious now, Queen Rongwan, Concubine Lan Key, and Zhao Haoyi's biological mother, Yingshuren.
The reason why I suspect the queen is because of that rumor, if Zhao Yuyi is really the queen's child and was dropped by the Yingshu people, then the only one who hopes that all this truth will be covered up is the queen.
As for the concubine Lan Key, Zhao Yuyi and Zhao Yuyi are the ones who can reap the benefits of the fisherman the most, and her second prince Zhao Zhiran is the most favored prince now.
And the possibility of welcoming people is even greater, if Zhao Yuyi is her child, because of that rumor, Zhao Yuyi has the qualifications to compete with Zhao Yuyi, and Mama Feng is the only one who knows the truth, she is dead, Zhao Yuyi may always be the queen's child in the eyes of others.
Then there will be supporters who are willing to gamble.
So now the direction is clear, but where can she start with her own strength?
Now the only one who can check these three is that person.
A name had already appeared in his heart, so he smiled mysteriously at Zhao Yuyi.
What he wants, she will definitely help him get, and she will prove that she is not a waste!
——
"Shuren, it's time to drink medicine."
Yingshu struggled to prop up half of his body, looked at the palace maid sent by Zhao Yuyi in front of him, and smiled haggardly.
Looking down at the black medicine, her lips touched the edge of the bowl, and the unpleasant smell filled her mouth.
Yingshu was not seriously ill, but it was caused by the loss of qi and blood, so the imperial doctor prescribed some medicine to warm and replenish blood, and she had already used it for a while.
Although his body is still not very comfortable, his complexion has improved a lot, and he used to look like thin white bones, but now he has begun to grow flesh.
After drinking the medicine, the Yingshu took the handkerchief handed over by the palace maid and wiped his mouth, held the handkerchief in his hand, and asked the palace maid: "Have the rumors in the palace dissipated today?" ”
Although the palace maid was surprised that she was a terminally ill person who began to care about this rumor, she still listened to her.
"Somehow, it hasn't dissipated by half a point until now, but it has become more serious, and some people even began to talk about the prince's life experience, saying that he was born to you and is not qualified to be the prince."
"Well, that's reassuring."
This sentence made the little palace maid in a fog, and she didn't think much about it, she just felt that she was jealous of the identity of the prince and wanted her child to replace her, so she went down.
Just as she was leaving, a smile appeared on Yingshuren's withered and thin face.
——
Queen Rong Wan looked at the letter in her hand and frowned, she really couldn't spare the banquet to let the priest take care of it for her, but the rumor had already spread there, so if the four countries all talked about it, it would not be good.
"Muxia, come in."
Rong Wan tilted his head and shouted at Mu Xia, who was waiting outside.
Mu Xia pushed open the door and walked in when she heard the sound, and when she saw the anxious look on her face, she understood something, so she closed the door with her hand.
"Niangniang, what do you command?"
Mu Xia came to Rong Bang's side and did not salute, this is what Rong Wan told her, when there is no one, there must be something important, no more than making those false delays.
Rong Wan waved his hand and handed the secret letter to Mu Xia, and when she finished reading it, her face turned worried.
"Since this rumor was spread by the Yingshu people, the palace will use this matter to alienate the relationship between their mother and son, but I didn't expect that now this rumor is becoming more and more fierce, I'm afraid it will be uncontrollable."
Mu Xia looked at Rong Wan's worries and understood her concerns, so she persuaded her: "Niangniang, now you have deceived Zhao Yuyi that you are his biological mother, even if there are rumors in the future, he will listen to you, as for who is the prince, aren't you all the queen mother?" ”
Mu Xia's meaning is particularly obvious, she doesn't care who is the crown prince between Zhao Yuyi and Zhao Yusai, whether it is her own and the final queen mother will also be Rong Wan.
But Rong Wan didn't think so, waved his hand at her, and said: "How can you understand the mind of being a mother, the sacrifice is that I was pregnant for ten months, and I almost lost my life before I was born, I have been carefully raised in the past 20 years, and I will sleep on the fourth watch when he reads until the third watch, and I feel sorry for him in my heart."
And the position of the crown prince must also be the sacrificial son, as for the Zhao Yuyi, it is just stained with light, born at the same time as the sacrificial child, but the biological mother is very lowly, it should be the second prince, but it was replaced by Zhao Zhiran, who was born an hour later than him, and became the third prince.
There is no glory in politics, and leading troops to fight is also mediocre in martial arts, how can such a waste be compared with the sacrifice? ”
The more Rong Wan spoke, the more excited she became, in her eyes, Zhao Yusai was the best, the best candidate for the throne.
Since then, Muxia has no words, she has never given birth, so naturally she can't understand the irreplaceable maternal love, but she knows that her idea is impossible.
"Then, the slave and maid will go and get that thing done, ensure that there is no trace left, and the rumors and slaves will also be appropriately suppressed to avoid chaos."
"Well, what about the second prince, you are also keeping an eye on it, he looks like he doesn't love power, who knows if it's pretending?"
Rong Wan knows the acting skills of the people in the palace, except for close relatives, no one can easily believe it, otherwise it can only be himself who is heartbroken.
