Chapter Twenty-Five: Hurt by Love
"Niangniang, Xiaocui is dead......"
Concubine Zhuang Guifei's heart instantly cooled by half.
"Send people to the East Palace."
"Lady ......"
"If you don't send it now, it won't be clear after that."
On the other side, King Kang's Mansion was anxiously pacing back and forth.
"How's it going?"
"There hasn't been any movement yet, and the East Palace is in a mess at this moment."
King Kang looked in the direction of the East Palace and squinted his eyes slightly: "They are going to get married next month, and this is a good thing for me......
"Lord Wang, Lord Wang!" A little guy shouted into the door, panting breathlessly, "Lord Wang, save it!" ”
"That Ice Sect has some skills."
In the palace, a richly dressed woman is holding Buddhist beads and chanting sutras to the Bodhisattva, without feeling her piety at all. Despite the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, the face was still memorable at a glance.
The woman's eyes were slightly closed. After a while, he sighed helplessly: "Sure enough, I'm still in a hurry." ”
In the courtyard, Ming Ruonan was drinking tea, and he heard someone hurrying outside the door.
"Young master, Your Majesty sent someone to send some supplements."
"Hey, Gai Ming'er still has to go to the palace to thank you. Troublesome. Ming Ruonan crossed her feet and sighed sincerely, "You said that this prince is also cruel to himself, An'er's medicine, there is no antidote to vomit to the intestines and twist it together." He was able to endure it for so long! ”
Lu Beibei just came in with the information, and the expression on his face was rich at this moment, and when he heard Ming Ruonan's emotion, his brows furrowed even tighter.
"What? Found out? ”
Lu Beibei nodded and shook his head again.
"If there's anything to say, I can stand it."
Lu Beibei sighed, looking like a teenager and old-fashioned style.
"Find out something inconsequential, serious insider, it is estimated that only the prince himself knows." Lu Beibei listened to the movements around him, and although there was no one else, he still lowered his tone, "Does the young master know about the assassination of the queen fifteen years ago?" ”
Ming Ruonan nodded, and Lu Beibei continued: "In the autumn hunt of that year, the queen stayed in Lakeview Xiyuan in order to take care of the unwell prince, and three hundred dead soldiers were directly killed. At that time, the prince's grandfather, Ling Taishi, and two uncles were also there, and none of them survived, except for the prince who escaped by hiding in a water tank. But after waking up, he was stupid, and the prodigy became a rumored waste wood overnight. ”
"Is this assassination aimed at the Ling family?"
Later, it was found out that the mastermind behind the scenes was the subordinate of the former King of Zhenbei, saying that he hated His Majesty for beheading the King of Zhenbei Manmen back then. Can ......"
"But Your Majesty is fine, it is the Ling family who died."
Lu Beibei sighed: "That's right, so there are different opinions in the market." Some say that it is because the Ling family is powerful and is feared by the emperor, some say that Concubine Zhuang wants to be the queen, and some say that the queen mother was not used to what the queen did in the harem at that time...... Of course, I think it is more related to the competition for the throne. Therefore, the prince has been hiding himself inconspicuously over the years, and eighty percent of it is related to these things. ”
"At that time, he was only six years old, where did he know so much, I am afraid that there is a master behind him."
Ming Ruonan suddenly felt a little distressed about Yuan Jing, looking at it this way, the emperor did not abolish the prince, maybe he was just worried about the rumors that he killed the Ling family. and those so-called father-son relationships, which have nothing to do with it.
Lu Beibei nodded: "Beibei also thinks so, and Beibei guesses that this person is Uncle Ling Guo." ”
Ming Ruonan recalled the last time he saw Uncle Ling, and thought that this was probably the case: "The Ling family was the most famous scholar back then, but it was defeated by this Uncle Guo, and it seemed that it was premeditated. ”
"Although our uncle was really young and idle at that time, Beibei always believed that the tiger father had no dogs, especially in these years, he jumped up and down in a daze that he didn't kill himself, no matter how you look at it, he also has some ability."
Ming Ruonan couldn't cry or laugh, and said in her heart, you are not a boast.
She suddenly understood what the prince had said: Most of the people in this palace are plays.
Yuan Jing has been in trouble for so many years, and he doesn't know who his enemies are, and he still has to face them with a smile, it should be very painful.
Ming Ruonan rubbed the jade bracelet and frowned: "After all these years, no one suspected that Uncle Ling Guo and the crown prince were pretending?" ”
"Naturally, there is no less temptation. If you want Beibei to guess, it should be a matter of the coronation ceremony, and the title of Prince of Waste Wood is confirmed. ”
"Hey, I didn't expect that I didn't become a god, but it became a lucky thing."
"In fact, the biggest suspect at that time was the second prince Yuanhai. This Yuan Hai was only seventeen years old at that time, and he was highly respected by the courtiers. has a good character, and the people also praise him, saying that he is the biggest competitor for the prince. ”
"Isn't that the ...... Duanwang?"
"That's right, five years ago, Duanwang Yuanhai died unexpectedly during the Eastern Expedition, and this suspect is gone."
Ming Ruonan suddenly realized that the water in this imperial city was too muddy......
"Young master, are you still checking?"
Ming Ruonan shook his head helplessly: "What can't be found out by the dignified Ling family, what can we find out from a Jianghu sect." ”
And the only man in the Ling family who could breathe was being discussed by them, Uncle Guo, was glaring at the prince, so angry that his nostrils were snorting.
"It's dangerous again! Do you want my life? ”
Yuan Jing bent his eyes slightly and pulled the corner of his uncle's clothes.
"Don't pull me, it's useless!" Uncle Ling Guo glanced at his nephew, and he was angry, "Also, that Ming Ruonan has only been here for a few days, and you will be completely exposed!" ”
"That's it." Huan'er added oil and vinegar to the side, "You don't know, Your Highness met the girl Ming, it's like a different person." I'm taking her to the ice cellar today! ”
"Are you crazy?" Uncle Ling Guo jumped to his feet in anger, "If you want others to see it, you are still pretending to be a fart!" ”
Yuan Jing tugged at the corners of his mouth and just wanted to explain, but he listened to Lintz mend the knife: "I also asked Miss Ming to cut a piece of Tianhan Ice and take it away." ”
Uncle Ling: ......
Yuan Jing smiled awkwardly and prepared to lie on the bed and pretend to be dead.
Uncle Ling Guo continued to ask, "What's the matter?" Fancy it? ”
Linz grabbed the white: "Miss Ming is beautiful that day!" It's no wonder that our Highness is tempted. ”
Yuan Jing didn't bother to explain, saying that he wasn't tempted, and he couldn't explain what the inexplicable lowering principle was going on now. It's as if the threshold of those principles in the dark is set for Ming Ruonan, where she is, where is the bottom line principle......
"Uncle, do you know why the girl doesn't want to get married?"
Uncle Ling Guo wondered: "She doesn't want to get married?" I didn't see it, I feel like a set of moves into Beijing is quite quick. ”
Huan'er smiled: "That's it, can you not be profitable, you are all going to kill other sects!" ”
Uncle Ling Guo glared at Huan'er: "You little girl, where are you standing?" He stroked his beard and pondered, "But I heard before that she was divorced by her childhood sweetheart when she was fifteen years old, was she hurt by love?" ”
Yuan Jing heard the word "emotional injury" and frowned unconsciously.
"Linz, go...... Forget it, it's all in the past, what to do here. ”
The corners of Uncle Ling's mouth twitched, looking at his nephew, who had just opened his love and had not yet realized that he had moved his heart, and expressed deep sympathy for him.
