Emperor Hong Zheng didn't seem to believe it, and said lightly: "If you want Mingzhu to marry, then why do you want to send someone to assassinate Xiao Yao?" ”

"Father, the son didn't send someone to assassinate Xiao Yao! Was Xiao Yao assassinated? ”

Yan Rongling was shocked, and Emperor Hong Zheng couldn't tell for a moment whether he really didn't know or pretended not to know.

"Xiao Yao was assassinated in Dazhou, and the assassin said it was your man."

Yan Rongling looked sad and indignant, and kowtowed: "Father, the son is wronged!" The one who assassinated Xiao Yao was not Erchen's person, Erchen could swear! ”

Emperor Hong Zheng was just trying to deceive Yan Rongling. Hearing him deny it, Emperor Hong Zheng also had a little doubt in his heart.

Is it really not the crown prince?

"Recently, you go back to the East Palace first, you don't need to take care of the government for the time being, stay at home."

In the end, Emperor Hong Zheng planned to put Yan Rongling under house arrest before finding out the truth. If it weren't for his hands, it would have been good, but if he had done it, he would still be able to pretend to deny it like this, so he had bad intentions.

Yan Rongling did not defend again, but after retreating, he honestly returned to the East Palace.

He did not go to the courtyard of the crown princess, nor did he go to the courtyards of other concubines, but chose to stay alone in the study.

That night, Yan Rongling pushed open the door and walked out.

Looking at the bright moon hanging high in the sky, it was already half round, and my heart fluctuated.

Not strong enough, he's still not strong enough now!

If he is already the Ninety-Five Supreme today, then a holy decree can make Xiao Yao unable to come back. There is no need to secretly send people to assassinate like this, and you have to worry about the emperor's interrogation afterwards.

Looking at his father's intentions, although Xiao Yao was assassinated, it was not a big deal.

Otherwise, the father would not be so relaxed, and the Empress Dowager Zhong would not be until now, and there was no movement in Cining Palace.

So far, it is useless to arrange the people, only to see if another surprise soldier can win and contain Xiao Yao.

Yan Rongling calculated in his heart, calculating that next year would be the day when his father died in his dream.

As long as Mingzhu's marriage can be delayed next year, there will be no problem. Now I only hope that Xiao Yao will not come back, or even if he does, he will be recalled to Yumen Pass immediately.

The crown princess learned that the prince returned to the East Palace, but did not come to the backyard, and she was not at ease. Patrick came to inquire and offered some pastries to show her concern.

Yan Rongling looked at the exquisite pastries on the plate, thought about it, and came to the main courtyard where the crown princess lived.

"Dandan, tomorrow you go into the palace to greet the Queen Mother. If you see Mingzhu, tell her that Xiao Yao was assassinated in Dazhou, and his life and death are unknown. ”

The crown princess was frightened by what the princess said, and cautiously asked: "Prince, is this news true?" ”

"This news is true, it was told to me by my father himself. And my father still misunderstood me, thinking that I had sent someone to go. ”

Yan Rongling did not shy away from it, and told Zhang Dandan directly, also wanting to see how the crown princess would behave.

Zhang Dandan was taken aback and exclaimed, "How could my father suspect the crown prince? Xiao Yao will be fine, didn't he say that Gu Yuma was also together? ”

Yan Rongling glanced at Zhang Dandan and asked, "How do you know that Xiao Yao is fine?" ”

"Prince, it's very simple. If you really did it, it was because the prince had no feelings for Mingzhu. Then it definitely won't, choose to do it when Gu Fuma is there, in case you accidentally hurt Gu Fuma? Then the prince will lose more than he gains. ”

Yan Rongling looked at Zhang Dandan with a smile, and sighed lightly: "That's it, you should enter the palace tomorrow and tell the Queen Mother and Mingzhu." ”

The crown princess said: "Okay, the concubine will enter the palace early tomorrow morning and tell the queen mother and the emperor." ”

Yan Rongling couldn't tell what it was like in her heart, and gently hugged Zhang Dandan into her arms. smiled: "Dandan, you are good to me, I must remember it, and I will not hurt you at any time." ”

Zhang Dandan didn't know why, but Yan Rongling rarely said sweet words, and such words were already quite warm.

On the Dazhou side, in a bloody investigation, three families were finally found to have a relationship with the person who was assassinated.

It's a pity that the officials haven't come to the door yet, and the three families all choose to commit suicide.

Gu Yuma then got the news and told Xiao Yao the result.

Xiao Yao didn't care, and said with a smile: "Gu Shibo, since this person dares to set up this bureau to assassinate me." Then they will do the aftermath work very carefully. ”

"There are still three days to go to the capital, and we must be careful on these last roads."

Gu Dian was very glad that he had come on this trip, not to mention that from another point of view, the person who did it was really the prince.

Because if it weren't for the prince's action, the enemy would have chosen, before reaching the state, those mountains and forests ambushed.

And because he was the prince, he threw a mouse bogey, gave up the ambush in the mountains and forests, and chose to assassinate Xiao Yao in Chaliao, Dazhou.

Gu Dian was in a very complicated mood for a while, is such a soft-hearted prince a good thing or a bad thing?

Xiao Yao had been with Yan Rongling for a while, and he knew Yan Rongling's character better than Gu Yuma. Although the prince is generous, for matters related to the pearl, it is like a reverse scale.

And with the prince's plan, it will definitely not be this one means. I don't know where the prince still has a killer move, where is it hidden?

For himself, he can only respond to all changes with the same, the soldiers will block, and the water will be flooded.

Early the next morning, Zhang Dandan came to Cining Palace early to ask for peace.

Empress Dowager Zhong didn't see her, and let people spread the word that she was slightly ill, so she directly sent Dongchun to take Zhang Dandan to see Mingzhu.

From this point of view, it is possible that Empress Dowager Zhong also received the news, so she will be slightly ill.

When the crown princess stepped into the Qingzhi Palace, before she reached the Mingzhu Dormitory, she heard the laughter of Mingzhu and Zimei from a distance.

Mingzhu was stunned for a moment when she heard the rumor, but the crown princess has always been on the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, there must be something.

Zhang Dandan didn't go around in circles, and said to Gu Fanghua: "Mingzhu, the prince told me last night that Xiao Yao was assassinated in Dazhou, and his anger is unknown. Don't you know yet? ”

Gu Fanghua really didn't know, Empress Dowager Zhong didn't tell her.

"Sister Dandan, is this true? Why didn't anyone tell me? Could it be just a joke? ”

Although Gu Fanghua believed that Xiao Yao would be fine, she was still taken aback when she first heard the news. I just hope it's a joke, not really.

"This is what my father told the crown prince, and there should be no mistake. The Queen Mother should also get the news, if you don't believe it, you can ask the Queen Mother for confirmation to see if there is such a thing. ”

At this time, Gu Fanghua couldn't sit still, and didn't care that the princess was still in her bedroom, so she raised her feet and ran out.

The crown princess saw it in her eyes, and she was even more sure that Mingzhu liked Xiao Yao. Otherwise, he would not have heard of Xiao Yao's assassination, and he would be in chaos.

I only hope that Xiao Yao is fine, can enter Beijing safely, and marry Mingzhu early.

In this way, everyone can be satisfied, and the prince will no longer remember.
