Chapter 388: Funeral

A few days later, there was suddenly news that Yan Qi was suffering from an emergency, and his condition was getting worse day by day.

The Ministry of Rites even spread the news that a funeral was being prepared for Yan Qi.

As soon as this news came out, it completely muddied the pool of water in the capital.

The status of the crown prince in the court is unshakable!

Yan Gu is skeptical about this statement, the emperor would kill Yan Qi in order to keep the crown prince?! It's unlikely!!

Besides, if it really comes to that point, then Yan Qi should have done a heinous thing, but he didn't find out what Yan Qi had done!

The father's grounding punishment is simply inexplicable.

Or is there something he didn't find?

Besides, when my father was sick, what did they talk about in the inner sanctum? He always felt that all the "knots" were in the content of the conversation.

But he went to the Qinzheng Hall several times to investigate, but he failed to get a single clue

When the news of Yan Qi's illness first came out, Jiang Lingran could still comfort himself that the tiger was poisonous and did not eat children.

The emperor loves him so much, he won't do anything to him!

It should really be sick, after all, it's getting colder and colder recently, I think it's a cold?

But now, she can no longer use this argument to persuade herself.

All the calmness and steadiness were empty, and she ran to find Sui Feng in a hurry.

Sui Feng is no better than Jiang Lingran.

Yan Qi's news made him and the entire trading house chaotic.

Shaking his head lightly, he said, "My own master has entered the palace, and there has been no news at all. ”

Jiang Lingran chuckled in her heart, something hit the bottom heavily, and her heart trembled.

She thought again of the story she had told her when she left.

The girl from the small family in the previous dynasty was disliked by her husband's family because of her ugly appearance, and her parents poisoned the girl who had been away from home for a few days in order to save face.

Small families are still like this, and the family and even the royal family value face and decency.

The emperor can't tolerate him, a person who has damaged the royal face, and plans to let him "sick" to death?!

Sui Feng didn't know what to think of when he saw her, the blood on his face faded in an instant, and tears fell on the placket of his clothes one by one.

It was the first time he had seen Jiang Lingran's appearance, and he was stunned.

After being stunned for a while, he said, "Miss Jiang, are you okay?" ”

Jiang Lingran shook his head: "Mr. Sui is in charge of you, this business house still needs to be bothered by you to help him stabilize." As he spoke, he turned to leave, but he stumbled and almost fell.

Sui Feng was shocked, and quickly grabbed her arm: "Miss Jiang!" ”

Jiang Lingran stabilized his mind: "Thank you." "After leaving the firm, go to the Prince's Mansion.

The crown princess had already guessed that Jiang Lingran would come to her: "His Zizhu Courtyard is guarded by the forbidden army, and even His Royal Highness can't enter, and I don't know the inside story." Saying that, seeing the horror in her eyes, the crown princess sighed in her heart, grabbed her slightly trembling hand and said, "Don't be too anxious, it should just be sick, and it will be fine." ”

These words were purely relieved, because even she and the crown prince couldn't guess the emperor's true thoughts.

Yan Qi is really sick, and the funeral of the Ministry of Rites is not groundless.

Before this, no one would believe that the emperor would be unfavorable to Yan Qi, but in the current situation, they couldn't help but believe it.

"I will enter the palace tomorrow to greet the queen mother, I will inquire again, and then send someone to send you a message." The crown princess gently patted the back of her hand.

Jiang Lingran stood up and thanked him.

When leaving, I met the crown prince.

The crown prince had just returned from the palace.

Yan Qi's situation is unknown, or rather, life and death are unknown.

He asked the little eunuch who delivered the meal, but for several days, he had not seen any trace of Yan Qi, and he didn't even hear a word in the room.

said that he was seriously ill, but he only asked the imperial doctor to check his pulse once at the beginning, and no one even sent the decoction every day.

In the face of such a strange situation, there are some things that the prince doesn't want to believe, it's hard to believe, but it seems that he has to believe it.

He went to the palace of Qinzheng, but his father did not see him, and made him kneel in the palace for half an hour.

He couldn't predict how bad things would be, but he didn't want to see everyone regret it.

After returning home, I heard that Jiang Lingran was coming, so I hurriedly looked for it.

There is no room for his father to turn around, and he can't see Yan Qi, so he can only find Jiang Lingran for today's plan.

He wasn't bored with Jiang Lingran, but after going through these things, he didn't have a good impression of it, although she was not wrong.

The prince understood that his dislike was a little unreasonable, but as long as he thought that Yan Qi would die because of her, it was difficult for him to make a smile on Jiang Lingran.

On the way here, he had already figured out how to persuade him, but when he saw Jiang Lingran's skeletal appearance, he couldn't say the words in his stomach anyway.

Jiang Lingran looked at the prince's anxious face, the corners of his mouth moved, he lowered his head, and said in a low voice: "He's not good, is he?" ”

Seeing that she was soulless, the prince sighed in his heart and said coldly: "I don't know!"

Thinking that now is not the time to be vindictive, he pondered and said, "Miss Jiang, you can." ”

"He won't let me listen to the prince." Jiang Lingran interrupted him with a loud voice, and said in a low and fast tone.

The prince choked, and his face became a little ugly.

Does she mean that she is not going to let go?

Doesn't it matter if Yan Qi dies?!

Before he could think of what to say next, he heard her speak again: "But I know what to do, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince rest assured." ”

Leaving the Prince's Mansion, Jiang Lingran wanted to go to Wanfu, but was stopped by someone on the way.

"Marquis Wenjing!"

Jiang Lingran lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw the people stopped in front of the carriage.

This person is ordinarily dressed, with a white face and a fat body, but he is a little familiar, and if he thinks about it, he has actually seen it next to the emperor.

The little eunuch stepped forward and said with a low smile: "The emperor wants to see Marquis Wen Jing, tonight." ”

It was night, Jiang Ling was dyed into the Qinzheng Palace, and there were few lights and candles in the empty hall, which seemed even more cold.

She held her breath and knelt down in greeting.

The superior is silent.

Jiang Lingran didn't dare to move, and waited in silence.

The kneeling knees were numb, and only then did I hear a slight sound.

The emperor stood up with the candlestick on the corner of the table and walked in front of Jiang Lingran.

Gao Desheng hurriedly moved the chair and took the candlestick in the emperor's hand.

After the emperor sat down, he spoke in a deep voice: "Deputy Commander Jiang and Marquis Wen Jing are kind to the Dayong royal family, and I feel that it is not interesting to reward anything." ”

"I invited Marquis Wen Jing to come tonight to ask, what other rewards do you want, say it, I will give it to you."

Why did the emperor quietly invite her to come, Jiang Lingran understood.

If the emperor sees her, it will be a scolding to split his head and cover his face, then Jiang Lingran may be more relaxed.

But these words, Jiang Lingran's heartstrings tightened, he fell deeper to the ground, and said respectfully: "The minister is afraid." What the minister and his brother did was taken for granted, and they did not dare to ask for rewards. ”

The emperor nodded slightly, his expression slightly stretched.

Looking at the dark place where the lights and candles couldn't shine, he said quietly: "It's best if Marquis Wen Jing can think like this." ”

"Just." He paused.

Jiang Lingran's heart was raised, and the cold feeling of marble spread from her knees, instantly covering her whole body, and she couldn't stop shivering.
