Chapter 437: Funeral

"Come alone." Qi Changrong stretched out his hand to take the porcelain bowl, and slowly and meticulously fed Qi Ziru with a spoon.

Seeing that the person on the bed only knew that he was stunned and looked at himself without any reaction, Qi Changrong stared at her unhurriedly, and said half-jokingly: "Gu has not served much in this life, if you miss this opportunity, I don't know if there is a second time in this life." ”

After hearing this, Qi Ziruo finally showed his first smile in the past few days.

The smile is not good-looking, but it makes the cuckoo unconsciously relieved.

Whether it's crying or laughing, as long as there is a reaction, it's fine.

The imperial doctor said that the depression in Her Royal Highness Princess's heart is very strong, and it has been hovering in the heart, and it is easy to have problems.

As long as you can evacuate the depression in your heart, you can say anything else.

After feeding most of the bowl of porridge, Qi Changrong stopped his movements, put the bowl back in the tray, and said, "Your stomach and intestines have not yet adapted to it, so you should not eat more, eat less and eat more meals first, and wait for your body to get used to it." ”

Hearing this, the cuckoo left with a half-bow.

After that, Qi Changrong tucked the corner of the quilt for Qi Ziruo again, and said calmly: "Since you have woken up, Lone will leave first, and there are still many affairs to deal with in the East Palace." ”

Her disappearance, not only was the southward parade forced to be terminated, but the official affairs of the East Palace had also accumulated a lot, and now it has not been dealt with.

When people wanted to leave, Qi Ziruo suddenly grabbed her wrist and asked nervously: "Brother Prince, does everyone know that you are back?" ”

This question can be regarded as to the point.

Qi Changrong shook his head, and his tone was gentle: "No, in the palace, there are less than a few people in the palace. ”

"Brother Prince, don't you ask me what happened?"

"Lone knows." After a slight pause, Qi Changrong closed his eyes, suppressed all his emotions and said, "The letter left by the mother concubine, Lone also saw it. ”

"So you don't have to worry about anything, whether it's the mother's enmity or your enmity, Lone will take revenge together, don't be afraid."

Qi Changrong touched her head, turned around and left without any hesitation.

After the people left, the cuckoo walked back again, and saw the thirteenth princess who had obviously lost a lot of weight on the bed, needless to say, the distress in his heart was needless to say.

"Princess, since the funeral, Your Royal Highness has always been by your side, as long as the prince is willing to protect you, you will not change anything in the future."

Qi Ziruo was silent for a while, and said dejectedly: "Du Juan, do you know, I am really a burden. ”

A burden that will only hold back and can't help anything.

"Princess, you can't say that, just wait, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will get justice for you soon."

Who is the culprit who kidnapped the thirteenth princess and forced Concubine Qin to death, although it may not be found out in a short time, as long as the royal family wants to know the truth, even if it costs huge manpower and material resources, it will definitely restore the most authentic thing.

And looking at the appearance of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, this matter will definitely not pass easily.

……

The next morning.

Jiang Bowen united with the rest of the courtiers and jointly wrote a letter.

It is a letter asking for the crown prince.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been in trouble for a long time, the location of the prince is related to the country, the country cannot be without a prince for a day, and please ask Your Majesty to crown the little prince as the new East Palace, in order to calm the hearts of all the people."

Qi Changrong returned to Beijing secretly, except for the closest people, no one knew that the prince of the East Palace had already returned to the East Palace safely.

Jiang Bowen's eyeliner in the palace was almost removed, and he naturally didn't know it.

Therefore, when he proposed to be the new crown prince, Jiang Bowen behaved very calmly and made the appearance of a loyal minister's humerus, so that everyone unconsciously followed behind him.

For a while, the voice of inviting the new crown prince resounded throughout the Jinluan Palace.

There were only a few of the dozens of officials, those who were silent or had uncertain faces.

Obviously, in the matter of asking for a letter to the prince, Jiang Bowen had the upper hand again.

What I see now is the mind of the superior.

The Emperor of Jin An wills, or does not want to.

If the child in the harem was really his little prince, if Qi Changrong had really been killed, Emperor Jin An naturally had no reluctance.

It's a pity that the child is not his child, and the most satisfied prince has also returned with all his beards and tails.

Therefore, Jiang Bowen's move can only provoke him.

So, everyone heard Emperor Jin An sneering again and again: "Now that the life and death of the prince of the East Palace are unknown, and Concubine Qin is still in the new mourning period, Aiqing can't wait to set up a new prince, does she want me to be pointed out by all the people?" ”

Qi Changrong's position as the crown prince is too stable.

As long as his body is not found, it is easy to change the prince......

Not to mention stabilizing the people's hearts, I am afraid that it will cause chaos that cannot be ended.

Just like Jiang Bowen, if he is not completely sure, no one will dare to touch him easily.

Even Emperor Jin An has to throw a rat bogey.

Hearing the anger in the emperor's words, Jiang Bowen's heart sank slightly, and he knelt down and asked: "Your Majesty, the matter of Concubine Qin's mother, the ministers and others are also extremely sad, but it is a matter of the country, please think twice." ”

As soon as these words came out, someone immediately chimed in: "Yes, Your Majesty, after all, the country can't be without a king for a day, what's more, if you can't find His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for the rest of your life, will it be difficult for the position of the East Palace to be suspended for the rest of your life?" ”

Luo Mu also said: "Only by calming the hearts of the people and establishing the foundation of the country can I have long-term peace and stability in the Great Jin." ”

When the words fell, more than a dozen officials said in unison: "Please also ask Your Majesty to appoint a new prince as soon as possible!" ”

On the Jinluan Palace, the scene of half of the officials kneeling on the ground and begging for their lives was very magnificent.

However, for all this, Emperor Jin An only felt a chill in his heart.

Jiang Bowen's influence is more powerful than he imagined, he just expressed a meaning, and countless people are willing to force themselves for him.

How can people be at ease with such deterrence?

Emperor Jin An pursed the corners of his lips, and his voice was angry: "I said, about the crown prince, if you want to see people in life and die in death, you must see corpses, before that, set up a new prince?" Nothing to say! ”

Seeing that the emperor was furious, if it was normal, Jiang Bowen would naturally not go toe-to-toe with him, but this was a critical time, and it was impossible to take a step back.

After a pause, Jiang Bowen suddenly kowtowed heavily, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, two months have passed since the original shipwreck, and it is just that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not been found in two months, if it has not been found in two years, and it has not been found in twenty years, what should I do then?" ”

"Jiang Qing!" Emperor Jin An

Anger is abnormal.

At this moment, his trust in Jiang Bowen completely collapsed.

Even if he was named, Jiang Bowen did not have any restraint, and continued: "The minister knows that this remark is suspected of offending His Royal Highness Prince Changrong, but the minister has to say that he also asks His Majesty to consider it carefully, and don't use the country as a bet." ”

Emperor Jin An did not accept Jiang Bowen's suggestion, pursed his lips and said: "Jiang Aiqing, you should know that I will never bet on the people of the country, if it is really as Jiang Aiqing said, as long as the little prince is at peace for one day, even after twenty years, I can set up another prince." ”

As soon as these words came out, Jiang Bowen had nothing else to say.

After all, people have already said this, and if he is aggressive, he is afraid that it will have the opposite effect.

Thinking about it, Jiang Bowen was a little suspicious in his heart, and he didn't know what went wrong.

When he wanted to get such a son as Qi Changrong, Emperor Jin An couldn't wait to immediately announce to the world that the Great Jin Dynasty would be the next heir, but now that the prince was killed, there was still a ready-made prince in the palace......

Emperor Jin An didn't mean to be in a hurry at all, and even said that he could wait for another twenty years.

Twenty years later, Emperor Jin An is already in his sixties.

And he is also approaching sixty, although he has not yet reached the point of old age, but who can guarantee that he will be able to live another twenty years without disaster?

Emperor Jin An can't, and neither can Jiang Bowen.

Therefore, although Jiang Boming kept his mouth shut on his face, he was still thinking about what to do in order to continue to implement the plan.

It is imperative to set up the little prince as the prince of the East Palace and stand on the united front with Lianji.

When the dynasty was dispersed, Luo Mu walked beside him and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear clearly, "Is this move too aggressive, my lord?" At this time, the matter of establishing a new crown prince was suddenly mentioned, and I was afraid that it would make Emperor Jin An suspicious and shake your position in his heart. ”

After all, if they were loyal to Emperor Jin An, they would definitely agree with Emperor Jin's idea.

But Jiang Bowen is working against Emperor Jin An today.

Jiang Bowen looked ahead, and his voice was also very low: "Today's things, sooner or later, it is better to do it early." ”

Having said that, the worry in Luo Mu's heart has not diminished.

Some things are born in the bones, and once something is involved, it will be completely drawn out.

Seeing Luo Mushen frowning, Jiang Bowen continued slowly: "You don't have to care about anything, you just need to know that the matter of establishing a prince is imperative and urgent." ”

After two consecutive months of searching, in addition to the people sent by the royal family, Jiang Bowen himself was also sending people to find them.

But he still couldn't find the trace of the prince, which made him start to doubt himself - whether Qi Changrong died in the shipwreck.

If you don't die......

Then all that he has done will be in vain.

Therefore, only by setting up a new prince as soon as possible can he be completely reassured.

In this way, even if Qi Changrong was lucky enough to escape from the sinking ship, he would be able to hold the little prince hostage and suppress the East Palace.

Luo Mu still didn't quite understand, and looked around casually, and saw that no one was paying attention to them, so he lowered his voice and said something rebellious: "Why do you have to go to such great lengths, you just need to solve the one, and soon let the little prince succeed to the throne logically?" ”

Jiang Bowen turned his head and glanced at him: "Do you think the lord of a country is really so easy to assassinate?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Luo Mu was silent, and his face was a little ugly.

Obviously, Jiang Bowen didn't mean to ask him to answer, and said casually:

"You should know that there is no shortage of masters around Emperor Jin An, and his hand is comparable to a first-class person in the rivers and lakes, if you really want to assassinate him, you should retract such stupid ideas as soon as possible, otherwise I am afraid that the one you sent will be caught before you get close to the palace, which will lead to all the failures."
