017 A fair
In the silent night, the flickering of the firelight illuminated the faces of everyone present, and the red clothes on Ji Baichu's body were particularly bright.
"Ji Baichu, you don't serve the emperor in the Heart Cultivation Palace, what are you doing here?" The queen struck first, and the old hen guarded the chicks in front of the prince and the third princess.
"The emperor heard that this Begonia Palace is very lively, so he asked Ji Bai to come and take a look." Ji Baichu stood still and didn't move, with an indifferent expression: "I didn't expect the queen mother to be here, that's just right, let's listen to the emperor's will together." ”
A round father-in-law Zhang walked out from behind Ji Baichu, who was the oldest eunuch who served the emperor, and even the queen had to give him a few thin noodles.
It's just that when Gonggong Zhang read out the holy decree, the faces of the queen and the prince turned green, for no other reason, the emperor directly arranged the third princess in Luhua Palace, and Rong Heng's Qingyun Palace door to door, although it was not directly arranged into Qingyun Palace, but it was almost the same.
This made the queen and the crown prince swallow this breath!
Especially when the crown prince is still injured, they will never watch the cooked duck fly with someone else!
"Wait!" The queen stepped forward to block the eunuch who came to pull people, "Who dares to be presumptuous in front of this palace!" ”
"Please take the queen aside and rest." Ji Baichu opened his mouth leisurely, but his light tone implied a coldness that could not be ignored.
Two martial maids grabbed the queen's arms one on the left and one on the right, and lifted them up and left, and the queen was powerless to resist, clamoring to kill all the minions who had committed the following crimes.
Without the protection of the queen, the prince was naturally knocked out and carried away by the guards.
"Ji Baichu, how dare you do it to the prince? This palace wants to tell the emperor to put you to death! The queen trembled, and if her eyes could turn into claws, she would definitely tear Ji Baichu apart.
Ji Baichu didn't care about this level of intimidation, and said with a slight bow: "The queen mother is afraid that she has misunderstood, His Royal Highness the prince is in pain and fainting, Ji Baichu just sent someone back to rest, and it is late at night, and the mother should also go back to the dormitory to rest." ”
When the words fell, the two maids who held the queen never gave the queen a chance to say too much, and it was almost the posture of the prisoner.
As soon as the queen left, the world was silent.
The lone third princess was a little embarrassed, the prince was gone, she had to turn her eyes to Rong Heng and Ji Baichu, but she didn't know who to talk to.
Ji Baichu nodded to Gonggong Zhang, "Father-in-law has taken the third princess back to Luhua Palace." ”
Gonggong Zhang responded with a smile, and after a while, even the third princess was taken away, and the Begonia Palace was cleaner.
"Why did you give me that trouble?"
Rong Heng couldn't hold back any longer, as long as he thought of the woman who could only cry and mourn in front of him, he would be two heads and two big.
"It's a lot of trouble, so keep it under your nose." After Ji Baichu finished answering lazily, he smiled and said to Prince Yi: "Prince Yi shouldn't be able to sleep tonight, it is better to go to Luhua Palace to guard, and someone will replace the prince early tomorrow morning." ”
This is not a tone of discussion, even if Wang Ye Yi is dissatisfied, he is glared at by Rong Heng's big eyes, and he still goes to Luhua Palace in a hurry.
Rong Heng pursed his lips and followed Ji Baichu to the celebrant eunuch, just because he didn't want to see someone who had an unappetizing appetite as soon as he opened his eyes tomorrow morning.
"Chu Bai, you asked Prince Yi to wait in Luhua Palace for the sake of the female official in front of the princess, right?" The tone of inquiry is nothing more than a sure message.
"Yes, the princess was assassinated, but the female officer happened to be absent, suspicious."
"Grab it and ask, you know soon?" Rong Heng will not take those irrelevant people in his eyes.
"She will appear on her own, perhaps, has appeared. But isn't it time for you to go back to your dormitory and rest? Ji Baichu frowned.
"Why do you have a mouth that it's time to rest? Can't I sleep here? It's not like I haven't slept! Rong Heng, who was hard-mouthed, turned over to the bed and occupied the inner position, so that he would not be easily driven away.
Ji Baichu shook his head and sighed, pulled the brocade quilt and lay down, "Sleep." ”
As soon as the sky was bright, the powerful footsteps of King Yi stepped into the celebrant eunuch.
He looked flustered, almost rushed in, and didn't care about Rong Heng's impatient appearance of being woken up, and shouted: "Oh no! The princess of Nanxueguo and the prince have made trouble together in the Heart Cultivation Palace! ”
"Make a fuss, let them make trouble, can they still turn the sky upside down?!" Rong Heng grabbed his messy hair, and his heart was also messy.
"Yes, it's not enough to turn the sky upside down, it's ironclad to turn over Qingyun Palace!" Prince Yi glanced at Ji Baichu, hoping that someone would understand that the matter was serious.
"Don't worry, Prince Yi will stay and have breakfast with us, it will take some time to come to the emperor's summons." Ji Baichu smiled gently, and really sat down and picked up the chopsticks.
The emperor is not in a hurry, the eunuchs are not in a hurry, the eunuchs are not in a hurry, and he, the prince, is still in a hurry! So he also picked up chopsticks and stuffed them into the sea.
Sure enough, when breakfast was removed and they drank a new cup of tea, Grandpa Zhang was late.
In the incense-heavy heart cultivation hall, the emperor reclined on the couch with a depressed expression, the queen sat on the edge of the bed with her head bowed, the prince stood beside the queen, and the blue-clothed female official who went and returned knelt in the middle.
As soon as Rong Heng and Ji Baichu arrived, three inexplicable gazes shot straight over.
The blue-clothed female officer turned her back to them, and when she heard the footsteps, she immediately raised her head and said to the emperor impassionedly, "Please give me justice to the princess of Nanxue Kingdom!" ”
Ji Baichu didn't care, and the corners of his mouth always curved with a smile, as if he was an outsider who didn't care about himself.
"What kind of justice does Lady He want?" The emperor's breath was weak, but his cloudy eyes were creepy.
The female official was not timid, and saluted without humility or arrogance: "Yesterday, Father-in-law Ji was extremely arrogant, and did not take the queen, the prince, and the princess of our country in his eyes at all, and even forcibly detained the princess in Luhua Palace. ”
The queen also echoed sadly, and also showed the bruises on her wrists to the emperor, which was pitiful.
Needless to say, the gauze wrapped around his arm like a spinning machine was a silent reminder of Ji Baichu's atrocities, and she was even more guilty than the assassin.
Rong Heng's gaze swept over the mother and son who were pretentious like a sharp blade, and their hearts were weak when they saw it, and their voices unconsciously lowered.
The emperor silently saw all this in his eyes, coughed twice, and said, "Ji Baichu, what did the female official refer to, do you have anything to say?" ”
Ji Baichu's face couldn't see joy and anger, "Female Officer He, the duty of the Praetorian Guard is to maintain the safety of the palace, the killer failed to assassinate the princess, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not make a comeback, isn't it natural to send more people?" The idea of forcible detention is too unreasonable. ”
"If any female official has to be investigated, Ji Baichu would like to ask, where is the female official who was assassinated last night when the princess was assassinated?"
"I ......"
"As soon as Lady Officer He entered the palace, she went straight to the Heart Cultivation Hall to sue Ji Baichu, she already knew that the princess was trapped in Luhua Palace, and the news in my Great Zhou Palace was in the hands of Lady Official, right?"
"You ......".
"It's better for Lady Officer He to think clearly before answering, maybe, it's my turn to ask for justice from the Southern Snow Country."
