Chapter 313: The Great Prince's Purpose (1)
It's just at this time! This is the moment!
If something goes wrong, he's all done!
The eldest prince raised his head slightly, looked at the sky in front of him, which had darkened at some point, and saw that there were chicks flying by, leaving no ripples.
Thinking of so many years of careful planning, he was about to be lost, and his face was cold and terrifying.
There is no one who can stop him from moving forward.
No one can!
His expression was extremely firm, and as soon as he returned to the mansion, he immediately secretly sent someone to the palace with the medicine.
That night, there was a scuffle in the palace, and it is said that the fight was very fierce, and the guard general Chen Deputy Commander who guarded the palace was injured.
When the emperor learned of this, he was very angry and immediately sent someone to the palace to investigate the matter.
"It's only been a long time since the Su clan happened! There was actually a thief who tried to assassinate him! She is a woman's family, and she has no gold and silver, and nothing else, why is she being targeted? Examine! Be sure to find out for me! ”
Rong Chen quietly watched the emperor in the court, turned his head and looked at the eldest prince quietly, revealing a thoughtful expression.
The eldest prince looked unfazed, as if he had expected it, and in the face of the emperor's anger, he showed the same indignation: "What my father said is that this matter is a matter of royal face, and it must not be let go easily!" It is necessary to track it down and understand it clearly! ”
The emperor glanced at him, and asked the general who reported in a deep voice, "Is the Su clan injured?" Did the intruder do anything to her? ”
"Back to Your Majesty, the thief was indeed going for the crown princess, but as soon as he rushed in, the princess screamed and alarmed the guards, and Deputy Commander Chen arrived with someone and drove the thief away......"
"Just to drive away?" The emperor's face sank.
"Your Majesty, it's not to drive away." Chen Yang hurriedly replied: "The Praetorian Guard fought the assassin on the spot, but the assassin was very cunning and failed to catch him, and he escaped, but he was hit by a sword in his left arm, and I am afraid that he will not live long." ”
“…… The garrison was guarding the periphery of the palace, and the assassins infiltrated Su's room, but Deputy Commander Chen just arrived and rescued the crown princess, which is too much of a coincidence, right? The eldest prince said faintly.
Indeed, a deposed princess and a garrison leader are indeed a little abnormal.
"Oh, that's the case...... Chen Yang hurriedly explained: "When the assassin appeared, the crown princess had already sent someone to find the forbidden army, saying that she was sick and wanted to see the general, and before the deputy general rushed over, the assassin appeared......"
"In the middle of the night, Su asked Vice General Chen to meet her?" When the eldest prince heard this, there was a strange light in his eyes.
Chen Yang was interrupted, glanced at him a little confused, and then said: "Your Highness's words are a little wrong, no matter what time it is, as long as the princess's people report that the situation is urgent, the forbidden army will have to take a look, that is, take a look outside the dormitory, otherwise the Su family has just moved in, if something happens, who will be responsible?" When the time comes, will His Highness say again that the forbidden army is derelict in its duties? ”
He was keenly aware that the eldest prince was picking on thorns, so he unceremoniously scolded back.
The emperor nodded: "Indeed, the forbidden army is responsible, it is not good to sit idly by, and fortunately, Vice General Chen went to see it, otherwise something happened to the Su family as soon as they moved to the palace, and others thought that I was narrow-minded and wanted to deal with her!" ”
"Your Majesty is wise." Chen Yang hurriedly complimented.
The eldest prince's eyes flashed on the side, and he didn't say a word.
The emperor sighed for a while, waved his hand and said: "Okay, since nothing big happened, forget it, don't quarrel here, isn't it just a Su family, let her stay in the palace well, see a doctor when she is sick, and recuperate if she is not sick!" If you really want to anger me, it's not impossible to send her down to see the prince! ”
"Your Majesty is wise, but Weichen has a small suggestion." Chen Yang immediately followed: "Weichen thinks that it is better to send a lady in charge to take full charge of the affairs of the palace, and the Su family will be taken care of by her, and another imperial doctor will be sent to live in the palace, and then the task of the forbidden army is to garrison the periphery of the palace and not let anyone break in, so that nothing will happen that is blameless, the eldest prince, don't you say?" ”
It is really thanks to the second prince, the reminder on the palace road just now, coupled with the aggressiveness of the eldest prince at this moment, made Chen Yang have an idea and directly put forward his opinion to the emperor, so that no matter what happens in the palace in the future, his younger brother's responsibility will be much smaller.
Also avoided a lot of tongues.
"This ......" The emperor couldn't help frowning when he heard this, he was just a waste princess, did he need to be so troublesome?
and arranged so many people to serve, so will she be punished, or will she go to recuperate?
"Father, the son thinks it's feasible." The eldest prince echoed on the side: "Erchen also thinks that the guards are a group of big men, and it is not suitable to take care of a woman in the Su family......"
"What to take care of, they are guarded! Guard! Hearing this, the emperor said with some anger: "Where did the Su family get the face for my forbidden army to serve!" "That's what my father said." When the eldest prince heard this, there was a trace of embarrassment on his face.
At this time, a trace of exhaustion crossed the emperor's face.
Things got to this point, he really wanted to send someone over directly, and a white silk strangled the Su family, but thinking that this woman was the woman the prince once loved the most, he once dispelled this idea again.
"I'm ready, tomorrow I will send female officials and imperial doctors to the palace, Vice General Chen has worked hard."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness! Being able to do things for His Majesty is what ministers should do, and I dare not say that it is hard. Chen Yang said sincerely.
The eldest prince smiled and complimented on the side: "Vice General Chen can be said to be the most considerate general in our Great Zhou Dynasty." ”
As for who it is for, it is not necessarily.
Chen Yang glanced at the emperor in shock, but saw that he didn't take this sentence to heart, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Next.
Rong Chen inquired that the eldest prince's people had contacted Concubine Shu in private, and in the end, the female official Zhou who was selected to serve Su Muwan in the palace was his person.
Concubine Shu didn't know yet, and said to Lady Zhou: "Su, this fox spirit, don't think about coming back after leaving the palace for the rest of your life!" Listen to me! Go over there, and guard her firmly! Don't give her a chance to escape, and don't let any man approach her! This woman is beautiful and deadly, and she is the best at seducing men, don't let her ruin the royal reputation! ”
"Yes, Niangniang, don't worry, the slave will do it." Female official Zhou agreed.
Concubine Shu was relieved, so she was satisfied and let her go.
In the afternoon of the same day, the group set off in a mighty way and went to the palace.
I don't know who mentioned that the palace is quite simple, the living environment is not good, the food and clothes are very simple, the emperor for the sake of the late prince, mercifully let people prepare a carriage of things, and send them to the palace together.
In this process, the eldest prince never showed up.
He neither asked about the affairs of the palace, nor did he ask for a word of mercy for Su Muwan in front of the emperor, and he went to the court on time and on time every day, ran errands, and went down to the court either to be busy in the palace, or to take a large group of followers to drink in the restaurant, and now, there are more and more people who support him to defect to him.
The prestige of the great prince is simply rising.
In this case, Rong Chen is much more low-key, if he doesn't appear, the people in Beijing will almost forget him as a prince.
In the second prince's mansion, Rong Chen accompanied Shen Nianzhen, whose belly was getting bigger and bigger, to eat.
Today's dinner table is full of Shen Nian's favorite dishes, including fresh lotus root stewed pork ribs in this season, as well as fried lotus root boxes, and most importantly, the kitchen uses fresh mutton to chop the stuffing and make mutton stuffed wontons, which are extremely fragrant.
In the past, Shen Nian really couldn't smell the slightest bit of meat, let alone mutton, but since she entered the fifth month of pregnancy, she suddenly had a great appetite, she could eat anything, and she was willing to eat anything, and the whole person was plump.
You know, this is not a good errand, Shen Nianzhen's own cooking skills are very high, if it weren't for pregnancy, she wouldn't be able to smell the smell of oily smoke, and she wouldn't be able to go to the kitchen, otherwise, where would there be their business?
In the dining room, Shen Nianzhen stopped Rong Chen's plan to serve her a third bowl of soup, waved his hand and said, "I can't eat it, I'll eat it at night, by the way, you said that the female official sent by His Majesty to the palace is the person of the eldest prince?" What does he want to do?
"Perhaps, I want to install my own people in the palace to take care of the Su family." Rong Chen opened his mouth lightly, lowered his head and silently drank the bowl of soup that Shen Nianzhen didn't want, and ate the meat in a big gulp.
Shen Nianzhen glanced at him, and then smiled: "This is not necessarily, what if it is sent to kill people and kill people?" ”
Rong Chen's action of drinking the soup was immediately paused.
Shen Nianzhen looked at him and smiled: "Can't think of it, right?" What kind of person is the Great Prince? He is a man who is imperative to the throne! Before he got the throne, anyone who might threaten him, he would pull it out mercilessly, get rid of it, for you, for the first prince, now that Su Muwan is in his way, he will not hesitate to get rid of her ......"
"Doesn't he have a little different feelings for her?" Rong Chen asked thoughtlessly.
"What?" Shen Nianzhen was stunned when she heard this, she didn't understand what he meant.
"It's nothing, I just can't believe it, my eldest brother hasn't liked Su Muwan." Rong Chen said in a muffled voice.
Why hook up if you don't like it?
