Chapter 259 Investigation
"Say what?" Xian Guifei was anxious, and her tone was a little heavier.
If she remembers correctly, this person is Chen'er's personal guard found by herself, but why can't she finish speaking?
Rong Guying was startled, immediately stopped stammering, and finished in one go: "It is said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a disaster star, and this famine is because of him, so His Royal Highness the Seventh cut off the tongue of the prince of Jingbei." ”
He didn't mean not to say it clearly, it's just that the Jingbei Hou Shizi's mouth was too broken, and he said this thing again.
When arranging the crown prince of the dynasty, only the prince of Jingbei Hou can do it, and the scholar in Tsing Yi doesn't know who it is.
After Rong Guying finished speaking, he secretly glanced at the reactions of the two of them, and quickly lowered his head with just one glance.
When Concubine Xian learned that this was the reason, she was extremely resentful, "This prince of Jingbei Hou has such an unclean mouth, no wonder Chen'er cut off his tongue." ”
Rong Guying was not surprised that Concubine Xian had an attitude towards this matter, after all, Concubine Xian favored Murong Chen was well known.
Murong Sheng knew that things were not so simple: "Was there anything abnormal at that time? ”
Rong Guying thought carefully, "At that time, there was a scholar in Tsing Yi beside him, I don't know what his identity is, his subordinates and His Royal Highness Seventh chased him out, but he didn't expect to be drugged and let him escape." ”
"Tsing Yi scholars? Sheng'er, you send someone to investigate. Concubine Xian said to Murong Sheng.
Rong Guying added: "At that time, a man in black also appeared and rescued the scholar in Tsing Yi. ”
Murong Sheng nodded, and then said to Rong Guying: "You step down, it's none of your business." ”
Rong Guying stood up at this time, his legs were numb for a long time, and he limped out at this moment.
Concubine Xian asked Murong Sheng with a worried face, "What should I do about this matter?" He dared to arrange you like this, he couldn't stop eating, what does the famine have to do with you, he dared to say this, presumably not a person said this, I'm afraid this matter ....... ”
Murong Sheng comforted Concubine Xian and said, "Mother, don't be angry, the ministers will send someone to investigate this matter." ”
Xian Guifei slowly sat down on the chair, "You must find out, and dare to do something to your brother, these people are really tired of being crooked." ”
Murong Sheng tucked the quilt corner for Murong Chen: "Fortunately, the seventh brother is fine, the ministers will figure out this matter." ”
Xian Guifei looked afraid, "Yes, fortunately, he is fine, but you should also pay attention to your business, this has just been promoted to the crown prince, so many people have come out to stir up trouble, and so is Chen'er, he slandered you, just beat him, why cut off his tongue." ”
Although he knew that Murong Chen also cared about Murong Sheng, he was too reckless, and this time there was going to be another wave of turmoil in the court.
Murong Sheng didn't speak, he listened quietly to Concubine Xian.
Concubine Xian: "This famine, has anyone embarrassed you in the court?" ”
Murong Sheng: "Not for the time being, don't worry, no one dares to do this, no one dares." ”
"It's good that no one is there, but this incident happened today to deter these people who chew the root of their tongues."
"Leave these to Erchen to deal with, you can just accompany the seventh brother here."
"Alas, the emperor doesn't know what attitude he has, so he sent someone to invite him, why hasn't he come yet?"
Xian Guifei stood up and went to the door to watch, just as the wind blew in, it was so cold that she hurriedly retreated, "Come on, close the door, why is it so cold all of a sudden." ”
As soon as the words fell, the palace maid wanted to close the door, and the eunuch's voice had already sounded, "The emperor has arrived!" ”
Concubine Xian's footsteps to return stopped, and together with Murong Sheng, she was just about to salute, but the emperor took the first step to help her up.
"Concubine Ai doesn't have to be polite, what's wrong with the seventh child?"
Murong Sheng: "Father, the seventh brother is fine, but he passed out in a coma." ”
Concubine Xian led the emperor to Murong Chen's bed, she wiped her tears, "Old Seven, this kid, went out to chase people and chased himself unconscious, it's really not worrying." ”
The emperor coughed and touched Murong Chen's face with his hand, "I heard that Lao Qi cut off the tongue of the prince of Jingbei, but is there such a thing?" ”
"Yes, yes?" Xian Guifei spoke, "The concubine hasn't heard of it yet, but I only heard his guard say that it was because of Jingbei Hou Shizi that he fell into a coma, and there was a Tsing Yi scholar next to Jingbei Hou Shizi who made a move towards Lao Qi, so he returned to the palace in a coma." ”
"Tsing Yi scholars?" The emperor tilted his head and asked rhetorically.
Concubine Xian nodded hurriedly, "Yes, this person escaped in the end, Your Majesty, you must be the master of Lao Qi, this Jingbei Hou Shizi brought such a person to assassinate Lao Qi." ”
The emperor looked at Murong Sheng, "Do you know about this?" ”
Murong Sheng's expression was calm, "I haven't heard of it, just after the courtiers came here." ”
The emperor looked carefully, but he didn't see anything on Murong Sheng's face, he said: "Then you go back first, go down to the court and have a good rest, I will hand over this matter to Dali Siqing to investigate." ”
This matter involves Murong Chen, and the emperor doesn't want Murong Sheng to take care of it at present.
"The retainers obey." Murong Sheng.
After he finished speaking, he walked out, and as he left, he could faintly hear the conversation of his father and the princess.
"The emperor must ask Lao Qi for an explanation to come back, this respectful of the Beihou family is too arrogant, dare to make a move against Lao Qi."
"I will."
Walking farther and farther, until he couldn't hear the voice behind him, Murong Sheng took his thoughts back.
Cang Bai saw Murong Sheng come out and followed him.
"You go and investigate everything that happened to Lao Qi today, and the scholar in Tsing Yi also investigates it to see which side it is."
The scholar in Tsing Yi was arrested by the man in black, and the person he approached was Jingbei Hou Shizi, I am afraid that Jingbei Hou Shizi was calculated, and the person who was also calculated was Murong Chen.
"Yes, His Royal Highness the Prince." Cang Bai walked halfway and turned back, "Prince, Concubine Chen has been waiting for you in the East Palace for a long time. ”
Waiting for him?
"But what's the matter?"
Cang Bai paused, "I didn't say it, but my subordinates guessed that it was possible that he heard that something had happened to His Royal Highness Seven on the way back." ”
Murong Sheng nodded, "Got it." ”
Chen Xiaoxiao went out in the morning, and when she came back in the afternoon, she should have heard that Lao Qi had an accident.
After Cangbai finished reporting, he went out to run errands.
Murong Sheng returned to the East Palace, he went straight to the study, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Chen Xiaoxiao sitting on a chair with an anxious face.
"Why is it alone here? What happened? ”
Murong Sheng came to Chen Xiaoxiao and put the blanket on her body for her.
Chen Xiaoxiao raised her head, Murong Sheng's cold and handsome face met her eyes, and she asked, "The concubine heard that something happened to His Royal Highness the Seventh, how is he?" ”
Murong Sheng replied: "It's okay, I'm in a coma, and I'll be able to wake up soon." ”
Chen Xiaoxiao: "What's the reason?" The concubine heard that His Royal Highness the Seventh Highness cut off the tongue of the prince of Jingbeihou, it can't be true, right? ”
She didn't believe that Murong Chen would do such a thing at all, and always felt that it was fake.
