Chapter 698: The Prince Comes Out
"Wait."
Concubine Yin Defei stopped Hu Shi, and then asked Ziyan, "Are my father and eldest brother seriously injured?" ”
Ziyan hesitated: "Also...... It's not very serious, Grandpa Guo just blocked a kick for Da Lang, and then Da Lang also suffered skin injuries. ”
"Isn't that serious?" Hu shouted: "King Qin's blood is strong, and Grandpa Guo has been kicked by him at a young age, how can he bear it?"
"Besides, a skin wound isn't an injury?
"No, I have to go and tell Your Majesty that King Qin is too bullying."
Hu said that he was going to Taiji Palace.
"Auntie!" Concubine Yin Defei hurriedly grabbed Hu Shi, and there was a hint of irritability in her tone: "Don't make a mess, okay?" ”
Hu raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "Why am I just adding to the chaos?" King Qin deceived people too much, so he should let His Majesty teach him a good lesson. ”
"Why don't you want to think about it? Why did King Qin dare to injure his father and eldest brother? ”
Seeing that Hu Shi was stunned and no longer clamoring to see the emperor, Concubine Yin Defei slowed down her tone and patiently explained to her: "The reason why King Qin dared to do this must be because he got some favorable news from Jing Zhaoyin.
"Now that we have the handle in the hands of others, it is not appropriate to publicize it, you go back first and take good care of your father and eldest brother, and I will talk about what happens when I get rid of those people in prison."
Hu Shi thought about it and felt that his daughter was right, so he went back to the house.
After Hu left, Concubine Yin Defei went to the East Palace and told Li Jiancheng what happened: "...... Now that they are locked up in the prison of Jingzhao Mansion, I also ask His Royal Highness to help solve these people, and I and the Yin Mansion will be very grateful. ”
"Are you stupid?" Li Jiancheng couldn't help but scolded: "Didn't I say that Du Ruhui's matter would end here?" Why don't you listen to me and go to Du Ruhui for trouble? ”
"I ......" Concubine Yin Defei weakly explained: "I just can't bear to see my father being insulted, and I think that the method that Princess Jinyang said is very good, so I sent someone to teach Du Ruhui a lesson."
"But I didn't know it would end up like this......"
"Who knows, who knows? What the hell do you know? Li Jiancheng was furious and roared: "You used to be smart, why are you getting more and more stupid now?"
"Why do you still have such a big handle left? Are you tired of being alive? ”
Concubine Yin Defei lowered her head and listened quietly, her face was hot, but she didn't dare to reply.
Wei Zheng saw that Concubine Yin's face was getting redder and redder, so he persuaded Li Jiancheng: "Your Highness, the big mistake has been made, and it is useless to hold Concubine De accountable."
"The top priority at the moment is to solve the trouble and not let the East Palace be implicated."
Seeing that someone was speaking for herself, Concubine Yin Defei glanced at Wei Zheng gratefully, and said: "Your Highness, you and I are in the same boat, not to mention that I have done a lot of things for the East Palace in the past, if I have something, the East Palace will also be implicated."
"As long as Your Highness helps me solve this trouble, from now on, I promise that I and the Yin Mansion will never make any claims, and everything will be under Your Highness's orders."
These words were both soft and hard, which made Li Jiancheng fall silent.
If something happens to Yin's house, Concubine De's status in the harem will definitely plummet, and he will have one less powerful helper in the harem at that time.
Besides, if Concubine De is in trouble, if she tells those things in the past, then how should he deal with it?
Thinking about this, Li Jiancheng has already made a decision in his heart.
He still kept his face calm and said to Concubine Yin De: "Okay, I'll help you this time, but you have to keep the promise you just said." ”
Concubine Yin De was overjoyed: "Thank you, Your Highness, I will definitely keep my promise." ”
......
Jingzhao Province.
Seeing Li Jiancheng, Jing Zhaoyin was greatly surprised, and hurriedly stepped forward: "The minister has seen His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
"No need to be polite." Li Jiancheng's expression was very majestic, and he said directly: "I heard that the group of assassins who assassinated Du Ruhui have not yet confessed to the mastermind behind the scenes, it has been a day and a night, and you haven't let them open their mouths yet?"
"It seems that the more you are Jing Zhaoyin, the more useless you become, and I will suggest to my father that I change to a talented person."
Hearing this, Jing Zhaoyin was shocked: "The minister is guilty, and I ask His Highness for forgiveness, but those assassins are too hard-boned, no matter what punishment I use, they will not speak."
"Your Highness, the ministers should do their best to make them speak as soon as possible, and ask Your Highness to give the ministers more time."
Actually, Jing Zhaoyin was a little confused in his heart, and he didn't understand what happened to the prince today.
It stands to reason that the victim is Du Ruhui, and it should be King Qin who should be anxious, why did the prince suddenly help Du Ruhui come out and put pressure on him?
"Your Majesty is very angry that this kind of thing has happened at the feet of the Son of Heaven, the sooner this matter is resolved, your position can be kept."
Li Jiancheng continued: "I came here today because I don't want to see Your Majesty worry about this matter, and I am also here to help you. ”
Help him?
Before Jing Zhaoyin could react, Li Jiancheng had already ordered: "Wei Ting, Su Dingfang, you go to interrogate that group of assassins, and you must let them speak today." ”
"Yes, Your Highness."
Wei Ting and Su Dingfang immediately walked outside.
"Your Highness, this is not in order." Jing Zhaoyin wanted to stop Wei Ting and Su Dingfang, but was stopped by Li Jiancheng.
Li Jiancheng said: "Jing Zhaoyin can rest assured that Wei Ting and Su Dingfang are very familiar with the criminal law and will never abuse lynching.
"And they are the best at torture, and they will definitely make the prisoner speak truthfully."
Jing Zhaoyin: "......"
He only heard that Wei Ting and Su Dingfang were the left and right guards of the East Palace, when did the two of them also be good at torture?
"Jing Zhaoyin doesn't have to be nervous, come, sit down and drink tea, let's wait slowly." Li Jiancheng was anti-guest and greeted Jing Zhaoyin warmly.
Hearing this, Xue Wanche waved his hand outward, and immediately several palace maids rushed in, holding tools for making tea in their hands.
After entering, they were like in the East Palace, skillfully setting up the stove to make tea, and after a while, the room was filled with a strong smell of tea.
The hot tea was served, and the palace maid stepped aside.
Li Jiancheng greeted Jing Zhaoyin with a smile: "This is the new tribute tea a few days ago, Jing Zhaoyin tastes it." ”
Jing Zhaoyin had a flattered expression: "Your Highness Xie." ”
The entrance of the tea is refreshing, and it is indeed good tea, but Jing Zhaoyin only feels bitter in his heart.
He forced a smile and praised: "Good tea, good tea, I am deeply honored to be able to taste such a delicious tea today thanks to the blessing of His Royal Highness." ”
Seeing Li Jiancheng smile, Jing Zhaoyin took the opportunity to say: "Wei Wei and Su Wei have been gone for so long and there is no news, I'd better go and take a look."
"After all, this is Jingzhao Mansion, I'm familiar with it."
As he spoke, he got up.
"Don't worry, they can handle it." Li Jiancheng stopped Jing Zhaoyin again: "If you are bored waiting, you can talk with me for a game." ”
Xue Wanche waved his hand outward again.
Two palace maids walked in with a chessboard and basket, but in a few moments, the chessboard and basket were already arranged.
"Come here." Li Jiancheng pinched the jade chess and shouted at Jing Zhaoyin.
Jing Zhaoyin: "......"
He could only step forward silently, sit down opposite Li Jiancheng, and silently go to get the jade chess......
