Chapter 877: The fragrance is hard to get rid of
Li Jiancheng frowned: "So, who is the spy?" ”
The people of the temple also fell into deep thought.
At this time, Xu Shimo walked in, with a hint of panic in his expression: "Your Highness, now is not the time to pursue this issue, Duke Xun and Commander Ding are here, as well as Wei Chi Jingde beside King Qin." ”
Hearing this, Wei Zheng said: "Your Highness, Wei Chi Jingde must have come here to use the fragrance on Shan Xiongxin's body to testify against you. ”
Li Jiancheng's face turned pale, and he immediately instructed Zheng Guanyin: "You and Xu Shimo go to see if the fragrance on Shan Xiongxin's body has been eliminated, let them move quickly, and Wei Zheng and I will delay here." ”
The crowd split up.
Soon, Qian Jiulong and the others came to the main hall.
"I've seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." The crowd saluted.
"No courtesy." Li Jiancheng raised his hand, then his eyes fell on Wei Chi Jingde, and he pretended to be surprised: "Why is General Wei Chi injured?" Still so badly hurt? ”
Wei Chi Jingde's attitude was as respectful as ever: "Back to Your Highness, just now the minister and the King of Qin met the assassin in the Ning Xiang Pavilion, and these injuries were all caused by the assassin......"
Li Jiancheng showed a suddenly realized expression: "Wei Zheng just told me that Commander Ding led people to block all the palace gates of the East Palace, and I was about to send someone to ask about the situation, but it turned out that there were assassins in the palace. ”
Immediately after, he asked with concern: "By the way, how is King Qin?" Didn't get hurt, did you? ”
Wei Chi Jingde replied respectfully: "King Qin was stabbed with a sword in the heart, and his life is in danger. ”
"How can it be!" Li Jiancheng slapped his palm on the armrest, and said angrily: "The palace is heavily guarded, and it can actually infiltrate the assassins, and the King of Qin is seriously injured."
"Duke Xun Guo, Commander Ding, how did you protect the palace?
"Let the King of Qin be seriously injured, what should you be guilty of?"
Faced with the prince's questioning, Qian Jiulong and Ding Zhi had to admit their mistakes first: "The ministers are derelict in their duties, and I ask Your Highness to forgive them." ”
Then Qian Jiulong made his intentions clear: "Your Highness, Your Majesty ordered your ministers and others to search the palace to find out the assassins, and ask Your Highness to cooperate with the search." ”
"What? How dare you search the East Palace? Wei Zheng showed an angry expression and asked, "What kind of place is the East Palace, how can you allow you to search if you say that you will search it......
Ding Zhi interrupted him: "This is Your Majesty's will. ”
"Since it is Your Majesty's will, then please show Your Majesty's warrant." Wei Zheng's attitude was tough.
Qian Jiulong and the others looked stiff.
His Majesty gave the order, but did not give them a warrant.
Of course, if it was in normal times, as long as Qian Jiulong said so, no one would dare to question it. But today is different, this is in the East Palace.
Wei Chi Jingde was the first to react: "This is His Majesty's personal order, and they can all testify." ”
He gestured to the Praetorian Guards outside.
But Wei Zheng didn't give an inch: "There are assassins in the palace, and King Qin is injured, this is a special moment, don't be careless."
"What's more, this is the East Palace, His Royal Highness is the prince, and his life is related to the country, let alone careless.
"What if the Assassins infiltrated the Praetorian Guard and took the opportunity to injure His Highness?
"For the sake of His Royal Highness's safety, I also ask Duke Xun Guogong to show His Majesty's warrant."
Qian Jiulong: "......"
In desperation, Qian Jiulong had to order someone to go to Taiji Palace to get a warrant, but he, Ding Zhi and others were still in the East Palace.
Li Jiancheng greeted them for tea with an easy-going attitude, and ordered someone to give Wei Chi Jingde a seat.
Before the matter was clear, Wei Chi Jingde's attitude was very respectful: "Thank you Your Highness for your compassion." ”
An inconspicuous chamberlain appeared at the door and looked at Li Jiancheng quietly.
When he met Li Jiancheng's eyes, he shook his head imperceptibly.
The scent has not been eliminated.
Li Jiancheng's face sank, and when he saw Qian Jiulong looking over, he patted the handrail and said angrily: "This group of assassins is so bold and dares to sneak into the palace, isn't it the remnants of the Sui Kingdom?" ”
After a pause, he asked with concern: "By the way, is Your Majesty okay?" ”
"Your Highness, please rest assured, Your Majesty is fine." Qian Jiulong replied.
Li Jiancheng looked out the door, the inconspicuous chamberlain had disappeared, and he asked about Li Shimin's situation again: "Where is King Qin now?" Did you call a doctor to heal him? ”
As he spoke, he suddenly got up: "No, I'd better go and see King Qin." ”
With a coy attitude, Wei Chi Jingde couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
Qian Jiulong immediately stopped Li Jiancheng: "Your Highness forgives your sins, Your Majesty has an order, there are assassins in the palace, everyone must stay where they are and listen to orders." ”
Hearing this, Li Jiancheng sat down again and asked Li Shimin again: "How is King Qin's injury now?" ”
Qian Jiulong didn't dare to say more, so he had to say: "Your Majesty has ordered the imperial doctor to treat King Qin's injuries, and as for King Qin's current situation, the minister doesn't know. ”
Li Jiancheng was silent, he picked up the teacup and thought about it by drinking tea.
Just now, Wei Chi Jingde said that Li Shimin was stabbed in the heart, and his life was in danger, so he shouldn't live long.
If Li Shimin's injury was not serious, he would definitely complain to his father, saying that the assassin was sent by him, then it would not be as simple as Qian Jiulong searching the palace now, and his father would definitely summon him.
Now Qian Jiulong was ordered to search the palace, and Wei Chi Jingde did not accuse him, which shows that Li Shimin is seriously injured, at least now he is in a coma and cannot complain to his father......
"That's right." Li Jiancheng put down the teacup and asked, "Have you caught a live mouth?" ”
Qian Jiulong's eyes flickered, although the assassination of King Qin was most likely done by the crown prince, but now there is no evidence, and His Majesty has not said anything suspicious, so when the prince asks, he can't help but answer.
"Back to His Royal Highness, although the minister went a step late, he caught two live mouths."
After saying this, Qian Jiulong no longer revealed the news, and only drank tea silently.
Li Jiancheng's expression remained unchanged, but his heart began to panic.
At this time, the backyard of the East Palace was already in chaos.
"What to do, what to do, I still have that nasty scent on my body......" Shan Xiongxin was anxious to walk back and forth.
And those who have entered the Ning Xiang Pavilion also have a bitter face, and they smell the smell of their bodies from time to time.
Although they couldn't smell the scent, the crown princess said that they had it, and they had it.
"Crown Princess, Duke Xun Guo sent someone to Taiji Palace to get His Majesty's warrant, if they bring a warrant, they will search here." Lan Rong said.
Zheng Guanyin was very anxious, she looked at Xu Shimo: "Xu Sheren, what should we do now?" ”
Xu Shimo was also at a loss, he didn't expect King Qin to be prepared and so difficult to deal with.
At this time, a soldier of the Changlin Army said weakly: "I heard that the masters of the harem use a lot of flower dew, so we might as well cover up this fragrance with the fragrance of flower dew......
When he said this, the soldiers did not dare to look up at the crown princess, the flower dew was very expensive, and it was generally only the concubines and princesses in the palace and the nobles outside who could afford it.
On weekdays, he didn't even dare to mention it, let alone let the crown princess bring flower dew to them vulgar people.
Shan Xiongxin stroked his palm: "Good idea." ”
Immediately, he looked at Zheng Guanyin: "Crown Princess, hurry up and send someone to fetch the flower dew......
