East Palace.

Since that day, Qi Changrong has been in a coma for two days, and he has a high fever for the past two days, and he often has nightmares, saying some nonsense that outsiders can't understand in his dreams, and his demeanor is even more painful during nightmares.

Mama Sun and Shi Xia didn't dare to fake others, and took turns to stay in front of Qi Changrong's bed, taking the trouble to wipe her whole body to cool down, but even so, there were still several critical situations during the period, if it weren't for Shi Xia's superb medical skills, I am afraid that the situation would be unpredictable......

On this day, Qi Changrong was half-leaning on the collapse of the inner room, his face was pale and weak, and his already thin body had lost a lot, looking extremely cute.

Mama Sun tucked the corners of the quilt for her, and then found a brand-new thick cloak and put it on Qi Changrong's shoulders, and under her flattery, she reluctantly complied with her 'unreasonable' request.

Even so, Grandma Sun still plans to persuade her again, maybe Her Highness will listen to it?

"Your Highness, don't blame the old slave for talking too much, you have committed such a big crime, you should be raised well, don't meddle in the affairs outside the palace, no matter how important those things are, they are not as important as your body."

Listening to Mama Sun's serious dissuasion, Qi Changrong, whose ears were almost cocooned by her, opened his lips and smiled slightly, and called indifferently: "Mama." ”

Mama Sun's words stopped abruptly, and she wanted to say a few more words, but looking at Qi Changrong at the moment, she hesitated a few times, but she didn't want to go against her will.

"That's it, the old slave is a woman in the deep palace, and she doesn't understand the world's major events in the eyes of His Royal Highness, so the old slave will call him in."

In an instant, the voice of dissuasion turned into self-abandonment.

After finishing speaking, Grandma Sun wiped the corners of her eyes, got up and walked out, put down the layers of curtains on the bed before leaving, and erected a heavy screen in the center, and then clapped her hands and left with confidence.

I heard that the eyesight of a person who practices martial arts is excellent, but he can't let him see the slightest abnormality.

Seeing this, Qi Changrong, who was pale, couldn't help but feel extremely helpless.

But I also knew that Mama Sun was dedicated to her own good, as long as it wasn't too much, she followed her with one eye closed.

A moment later, a slender figure approached from outside, and finally stopped outside the screen, bowing respectfully to her.

"My subordinates have seen the prince."

Hearing the familiar voice, Qi Changrong let out a 'hmm'.

This person is Luo Yi, although the East Palace has been sealed, there are two teams of Praetorian Guards outside the palace to prevent someone from sneaking out.

But even so, the Praetorian Guards could only stop the ordinary palace people who were powerless, and it couldn't be easier for the dark guards to get in and out.

Therefore, she ordered Luo Wei to collect news outside, and then Luo Yi reported it to her.

His throat itched for a while, and Qi Changrong couldn't help but cough a few times.

Hearing the coughing sound behind the screen, Luo Yi was extremely worried.

Since His Royal Highness returned to the East Palace, everything has been taken over by Shi Xia and Mama Sun, and no one can know the true situation of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince except them.

But looking at it like this, I'm afraid this time I'm not light.

After the churning itch subsided, Qi Changrong asked in a hoarse voice, "How is the situation outside?" ”

Hearing the words coming from inside the screen, Luo Yi came back to his senses and hurriedly replied: "According to His Highness's orders, his subordinates have been guarding Pei Ji's surroundings to escort him into Beijing, and now he has entered the palace to report to His Majesty." ”

Qi Changrong nodded, closed his eyes slightly, and then asked, "How is the prison over there?" ”

"A few days ago, the emperor went to the prison alone to visit General Jun, according to the informant, he should have gone to talk to him, but General Jun should have a way to deal with it, so that he returned in vain."

As for how the general responded, he didn't find out.

However, since the general can fool the emperor over, it means that he also has some ability, at least he doesn't have to worry about the general inadvertently selling His Royal Highness.

At the mention of Junchen, the corners of Qi Changrong's mouth unconsciously rose upward, and then she restrained and pressed down.

"Keep an eye on the prison side, don't let General Jun be bullied."

Luo Yi: "......"

General Jun was bullied? His Royal Highness really dared to think that not to mention the deterrent power of the Junmen, just say that the general has a lot of kung fu, and even he may not be able to pass a few moves in the hands of General Jun, let alone other people in the prison.

Only General Jun can bully others, and there is no possibility of General Jun being bullied.

His Highness has been very thoughtful.

However, although he thought like this in his heart, Luo did not show it on the side, but responded solemnly.

Thinking of Pei Ji, who was taking up his post with the emperor in the imperial study, Luo Yi frowned slightly, and then asked cautiously: "Your Highness, when Pei Ji comes out of the imperial study, I am afraid that I will have to inquire about Pei Ran's whereabouts, you are ready to ......"

Qi Changrong's tone was calm, and he said lightly: "Pei Ran is in the wooden house, if Lord Pei and Mrs. Pei want to see it, you can take them to see it, but they are not allowed to take people away." ”

Luo Yi thought about it and hesitated: "Your Highness, I'm afraid this is a little inappropriate......

They are a family, and it is unreasonable to prevent a family from reuniting.

"No problem."

The moment the words fell, the familiar pain struck again, as if the bones of the whole body were broken, Qi Changrong shook his head, his hand unconsciously clenched the cotton wool sheet, and a cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Rao is like this, but her voice does not rise and fall at all, and is still cold: "You take Pei Ji to the official school first, as long as Pei Ji sees Pei Ran's changes, he will definitely not be in a hurry to take him home." ”

Jade can't be cut into a tool, Pei Ji should understand this truth.

With Mrs. Pei here, he can't discipline Pei Ran ruthlessly, since this is the case, it is better to directly leave Pei Ran in the wooden house, and when the time is right, she will return Pei Ji to a better son.

Luo understood what Qi Changrong meant in an instant, and hurriedly responded.

Seeing this, after confirming that there was nothing to ask, Qi Changrong said: "You go down, after Pei Ji accepts the position of chief judge, immediately hand over the collected evidence of the monarch to him, remember, don't reveal your identity." ”

Luo Yi didn't notice that Qi Changrong was wrong, and left in an instant.

Not long after he left, Shi Xia walked in from outside the hall with a bowl of black medicine, walked around behind the screen, and when he saw Qi Changrong frowning and almost curled up in a heap, he hurriedly asked, "Your Highness is starting to hurt again?" ”

In front of Shi Xia, the pain in her body couldn't hide from her eyes.

Hearing this, Qi Changrong nodded, a bitter smile overflowed from the corner of his mouth, and said weakly: "The power of the 'Refreshing Pill' is really not to be underestimated. ”

After eating the 'Refreshing Pill', she didn't feel half a point of cold in the snow, even if the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were frosty in the eyes of others, in fact, she didn't feel it at all, all her senses seemed to be closed.

But now, after the effect of the medicine, the pain to the bones seems to be able to kill her.

Shi Xia came back to his senses and hurriedly brought the boiled medicine: "This is a painkiller developed by a slave, you try it first, maybe it will make you easier." ”

Qi Changrong did not hesitate, took it and drank it all.

The bitter smell of the medicine made her almost want to vomit, but Qi Changrong clenched her teeth and forcibly suppressed the nausea feeling.

Seeing that her pain didn't seem to be relieved, Shi Xia hurriedly cried out and choked up: "Your Highness, you can't do this, so the slave will go and beg Your Majesty and ask him to send a doctor to come and consult." ”

"Don't go." Qi Changrong's voice became hoarse and low due to pain: "Father just wants to punish Gu, it's useless for you to beg." ”

"But ......"

"It's okay." Qi Changrong interrupted Shi Xia, obviously in extreme pain, but he still had the heart to comfort her: "The effect of the 'Refreshing Pill' is limited, and the side effects are also limited, bear with it, it will pass soon." ”

Having said that, no matter how worried Shi Xia was, he didn't dare to disobey Qi Changrong's decision.

Besides, she knew very well in her heart that this time His Royal Highness directly touched the scales of Emperor Jin An, even if she begged to break her head in front of His Majesty, she might not be soft-hearted, maybe she would take herself into custody, and in the end, His Royal Highness would have to bother to get her.

After thinking about it, Shi Xia had no choice but to put his mind to ask for help.

……

After the debriefing, Pei Ji should have easily returned home to recuperate for a few days. Waiting for the appointment of Emperor Jin An.

Generally speaking, if you are not delayed, you should wait at least three days.

But Pei Ji never expected that almost as soon as he entered the mansion with his front foot, he didn't have time to drink a sip of hot tea and change into clean clothes, and the back foot of the holy decree followed in.

Hearing the report of the subordinates, Pei Ji, who had just picked up the teacup, had to put the teacup down again, and then knelt respectfully in the courtyard with doubts and the people of the whole house, waiting for the attendant to read the content of the holy decree.

"Fengtian carrier, Emperor Jin edict said, Jianzhou stabbed Shi Pei Ji, a proud body, upright, meritorious in governing Jianzhou, today Pei Ji is specially appointed as the chief judge, review the case of Junmen, for a period of one month, I hope that he will reconnoiter attentively, there must be no mistakes, Qin this——"

After the palace attendant finished reading the holy decree, Pei Ji still knelt on the ground, recalling the content of the holy decree with a blank face.

The more I think about it, the more I don't understand.

At this time, the chamberlain had already stepped forward and said with a smile: "Master Pei will take the order." ”

Pei Ji didn't realize it, but in the end, Mrs. Pei knew that something was wrong, and secretly touched Pei Ji's arm, which made him come back to his senses in vain, and hurriedly took the holy decree.

Because she didn't know that the holy decree would be issued so quickly, Mrs. Pei didn't have time to prepare the reward, so she didn't even think about pulling out ten taels of silver tickets from the money bag, and cautiously handed them to the inner attendant of the decree.

said: "I'm tired of my father-in-law going all the way, this is the tea money for my father-in-law, and I hope my father-in-law won't dislike it." ”

Seeing the denomination of the silver ticket, the waiter was very satisfied, and took advantage of the situation to put the silver ticket into his long sleeves, his face became more and more gentle, and he reminded with a smile:

"Chief Judge Pei has just returned to Beijing, and there are many unknowns about the situation in Beijing, but you can send people to inquire in many ways, the Jun family and the Ye family are excellent targets for inquiry, but if Chief Trial Pei can beautifully complete the things His Majesty explained, the future is limitless."

After finishing speaking, the inner servants did not stay longer, and took a group of little eunuchs behind them and hurriedly walked towards the palace.
