Chapter 193: Preserving the Prince
There are tigers and wolves everywhere around him, and he has been assassinated I don't know how many times, and then he was directly poisoned and destroyed by accident, and he still died after a few years of hard work.
If it weren't for the death of the crown prince, how could there be a later young emperor, and where would there be a later separation between the north and the south and Chen?
But how did she say these words to Xie Qingheng?
Seeing her worried, Xie Qingheng only thought that she was afraid that the prince would not be able to assist, so he said: "Actually, the prince is not as weak as outsiders think, do you know what the prince said today after learning about the conflict between us and the Cao family, as well as the fact that Cao Xiong lost his sacred heart and was kicked out of the palace?" ”
Cao Xiong lost his sacred heart and was expelled from the palace?
Su Ruan was stunned by the news before asking, "What did you say?" ”
Xie Qingheng retold what the prince said to him to Su Ruan in a similar way.
Seeing Su Ruan's somewhat surprised expression, he continued:
"The prince is not as bloodless as outsiders see, he just hides his claws to make people think he is harmless."
"Although the eldest prince and a few of them made a fuss before, they never did too outrageous, but this time the eldest prince directly stretched out his hand to the Xie family, not only wanting to use his father to crush the second prince, but also wanting to control the household department and the officials related to the corruption of the household department this time, and plot to be even bigger."
"The prince was angry, and did not spare him any more."
"The crown prince may not be as showy as other princes, looking at Wen Tun's weakness, but after really contacting him, you will find that he is actually not weaker than those princes, and even far better than them."
After Xie Qingheng finished speaking, he said with some emotion:
"You haven't been to the East Palace, so you don't know, the prince's side seems to be loose, but there are countless secret guards in the entire East Palace, and even when the prince is in the palace, he never leaves people, and all the food and drink utensils will be checked before they are handled."
"The prince and I walked from the Xuanzheng Hall to the East Palace, and even the little eunuch next to me was a little panting, but the prince still had a long breath, obviously he had practiced martial arts, and his martial arts were not low."
"It's not that the prince doesn't have hole cards, it's just that others don't know about it."
was born as a prince, and he can be safe in the storage position for many years, but he can tolerate those people everywhere, and he can also practice such a temperament, how can he be a simple person?
Su Ruan listened to Xie Qingheng's words, and felt a little strange in his heart.
The prince's words were obviously to use the affairs of the Cao family to completely bring down the eldest prince, he was keen-minded, and reminded Xie Qingheng to tell the eldest prince the news that Cao Xiong was rejected by the emperor, and the eldest prince and Concubine Hui would definitely not be able to sit still, as long as they moved, they would be in trouble.
The prince's mind can be seen.
And if it is really as Xie Qingheng said, the prince knows his own situation very well, does not leave people around him in the palace, and is cautious everywhere, then how could he be so easily assassinated and poisoned in his last life, ruining his body and finally having a short life?
If it weren't for the prince's accident, Xie Qingheng would not have been implicated, and even later almost lost his life.
But Xie Qingheng didn't need to lie to him.
Su Ruan also knew a little about Xie Qingheng during this time, if he didn't believe that the prince had the ability to ascend the throne, and even had a great grasp of the prince, then he would definitely not take the Xie family to risk, that is to say, the prince should have hole cards in hand, and it is not so easy to believe outsiders or even be defenseless against people.
So, how did the previous prince get poisoned?
Su Ruan was suspicious.
Xie Qingheng saw that she seemed to be distracted, and couldn't help waving his hand: "Ruan Ruan, what do you want?" ”
Su Ruan hurriedly came back to his senses: "It's nothing, it's just that I have always heard that the prince has a soft temperament before, but I didn't expect him to be so decisive when he started." ”
"yes, who knows."
Xie Qingheng also responded to the peace, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't believe it: "So don't worry, I'll take care of the matter on the prince's side." ”
Su Ruan saw that Xie Qingheng had his own opinions, and the matter had come to this point, even if he really wanted to oppose it, it would be too late.
Xie Qingheng has already followed the prince like in the previous life, and has also been valued by the prince, so she can only find a way to keep the prince, otherwise if the prince ends up like the previous life, Xie Qingheng's future will be ruined even if he does not die, and the Xie family will be implicated.
Su Ruan said: "Since the eldest brother already has a proposition, I can't say anything, but since the eldest brother has already followed the prince, he should know that he is surrounded by wolves." ”
"Big brother must be more careful on weekdays, especially for the prince's affairs, none of them can be missed, otherwise if the prince has anything in case, you will be the first to bear the brunt of the emperor's anger."
"Also, my father and Jing Nan's affairs are also in a hurry."
"Lord Qi sent the news before, he has found evidence and witnesses over there, Keri will find an opportunity to send it to the Holy Front, big brother must not encourage the prince to come forward for me, otherwise the gain will outweigh the loss."
Xie Qingheng was mentioned by Su Ruan, and his heart tightened, and he nodded: "I know." ”
Xie Qingheng asked Su Ruan two more questions about the household department, and Su Ruan didn't hide it from him, after all, he is now with the prince, and there are some things for him to know.
Su Ruan only told Xie Qingheng that he could choose to tell the prince some of these things, but he couldn't tell the prince about the relationship between the Qi Wenfu and the Xie family, and before the evidence was sent to the Holy Front, the prince couldn't interfere in it.
Xie Qingheng naturally knew the severity, so he naturally agreed to Su Ruan and would never reveal too much.
After the two talked for a while, Su Ruan suddenly remembered Cao Xiong's matter and asked, "By the way, big brother, you said before that Cao Xiong was rejected by the emperor and kicked out of the palace, what's going on?" ”
Xie Qingheng said casually: "I don't know the specifics, I know that it seems that Cao Xiong entered the palace to plead for Cao Yu, but I don't know how to annoy the emperor, and I was given a call by the big eunuch next to the emperor without even seeing my face." ”
"The emperor not only reprimanded him for not being able to teach his son, but also asked him to pay our Xie family according to the previous gambling agreement."
"After Cao Xiong heard it, he didn't know whether he was shocked or frightened, he fainted directly in the palace, and the emperor ordered someone to carry him back to the mansion, so that he could have a good life in the mansion in the future, and he didn't have to go to the court or enter the palace without an edict, and even let people temporarily take care of Cao Xiong's previous errands."
Su Ruan's face was very exciting when he heard this.
She was still thinking about when Mrs. Xie and their side would do it, but she didn't expect that before they could do it, Cao Xiong would kill herself?
Su Ruan subconsciously asked, "Why is the emperor tired of Cao Xiong?" ”
Xie Qingheng shook his head: "I don't know, I already followed the prince to the East Palace at that time, so Lord Qi stayed with the emperor for a while." ”
"Qi Wen Mansion?" Su Ruan raised her eyebrows.
Xie Qingheng nodded.
Su Ruan's face was instantly strange, remembering Qi Wenfu's habit of digging pits for people unconsciously, could it be that what did that guy do to make Cao Xiong like this?
