Chapter 123: Debt Repayment

Empty teacups collide with stone tables, making a crisp sound in the silent night.

Jun Ruyu turned his head and asked Gong Wuyi, after all, he has a special identity, and he has been in the Three Emperors' Mansion for a long time, lest he will leak his traces.

It's not that he doesn't believe that the people in the mansion are disloyal, his mansion, the queen, the emperor, the king Fenglin and the king, which one is not staring at each other.

"I'll leave tomorrow." Gong Wuyi replied disapprovingly.

He looked so calm and light, he didn't know the truth, and he thought that Gong Wuyi was really here to ask for a debt, and there was no need to leave it when he arrived.

"So fast?" Jun Ruyu was a little surprised. He thought that Gong Wuyi would not leave easily when he came to Daxing this time.

"I'll be back later." Gong Wuyi said as he took out a bottle of white medicine from his sleeve. "I brought you the medicine."

As he spoke, Gong Wuyi casually threw the medicine on Jun Ruyu, Jun Ruyu took it, and put it back in his pocket without looking at it.

A month later, the court held a tribute conference, and Gong Wuyi, as the prince of Chenglan Kingdom, wanted to enter the Daxing Palace easily.

Jun Ruyu frowned, I'm afraid there will be a fierce battle that day.

Chen Tianfu had just been buried, and before the white paper lantern hanging on the door of Chen's mansion could be taken down, the people who demanded debts came to the door.

For two or three days, the people did not give up, and almost stepped through the open space in front of the Chen Mansion.

Jun Fenglin had to send people to guard it strictly, and even brought most of the guards in his own mansion to drain the water around Chen's mansion, for fear that these people would do something ridiculous.

Most of the people who bought Chen Tianfu's seal money were small people in the market, and among them, ruffians accounted for eighty percent. Such a person can imagine how arrogant he has become.

"What does Chen Tianfu do every day!" The queen was so angry that her hand slapped the table, and the vase and teacup shook twice, making a slight sound.

Jinhua Palace was silent, and the palace maids in the palace lowered their heads, facing the queen who was angry, they didn't dare to speak.

"Get out of here." The queen glanced at the guards kneeling on the ground with a pair of Danfeng eyes, and the more she thought about it, the more impatiently she urged everyone to leave.

This matter was originally settled, and the queen could logically put the fault on Zongzheng Mansion. Once Yun Shichang intervened, the queen had a lot of opportunities to win over the Prime Minister's Mansion, but the stupid things that Chen Tianfu did before his death were exposed, which gave her a headache.

"Why is the queen mother so angry?" When Jun Fenglin had just entered Jinhua Palace, he saw the palace maids fleeing out. He didn't have to think about it, and he knew why the queen was angry.

Seeing Jun Fenglin, the queen sighed heavily.

"It's not because of your uncompetitive uncle that he won't let this palace worry when he dies." The queen's face was full of anger. When the news of Chen Tianfu's death came, she was not so excited.

Jun Fenglin comforted the queen and helped her to sit on the couch. "What does my father say?" Jun Fenglin asked cautiously.

There was such a big incident in the Chen Mansion, and half of the capital was in an uproar, how could the emperor not know.

"This palace went to the emperor last time, and he only told me to relax, since Chen Tianfu is dead, he will definitely not let people play on the topic and wronged me." The queen 1510 told the emperor's words to Jun Fenglin.

"Isn't that a good thing?" Jun Fenglin's tone was gentle, which made people listen like a spring breeze. "My father is caring about my mother."

"You don't understand yet." The queen sighed again and again, "The so-called companion is like a companion tiger, I have served by your father's side for more than 20 years, how can I not understand his temperament." This is not yet to find out the truth, after all, Chen Tianfu has done those things, if the emperor knows, do you see if he will take into account my friendship with him for 20 years. ”

The queen said it truthfully, so that Jun Fenglin had to think carefully.

He rolled his eyes and took the opportunity to mention his plan to the queen. "Queen Mother, since we can't let my father find out what my uncle has done before, why don't we find out the truth first? When the time comes, my father will not only not doubt it, but will also praise you for your good heart. ”

"You mean, catch Chen Tianfu's murderer faster than him?" The queen was puzzled. So far, she naturally wants to solve this matter with all her might.

Not to mention that the queen originally wanted to use the murder of Chen Tianfu to successfully win over the Prime Minister's Mansion, but now it seems that it is enough for her to be alone.

"Yes." Jun Fenglin's expression was firm, and his words were categorical. "You think, if my father goes to check it in person, my uncle's silver taels alone are enough to cut off the treasury, and a discerning person can see at a glance that my uncle's identity is not taken care of by you, how can he have the ability to take out the silver from the treasury."

Jun Fenglin understated his speculation, but scared the queen enough.

If the emperor really found out, the queen didn't even dare to think about what the consequences would be.

"So what to do?" The queen frowned tightly, even with delicate makeup, she couldn't hide the panic in her expression.

"The queen mother can rest assured, this matter will be resolved by the sons." The corners of Jun Fenglin's mouth rose slightly, and he smiled warmly at the queen.

Seeing Jun Fenglin's confident appearance, the queen felt a little relieved.

"The son has found a suitable scapegoat." A sneer flashed in Jun Fenglin's eyes. "Don't worry, blood won't spill on you and me."

"Who would willingly be the scapegoat?" The queen looked worried. "Maybe it's still Zongzheng Mansion?"

"Nope." Jun Fenglin's eyes were slightly empty, and his expression was very shrewd.

"Since no one can be willing, let him not argue."

Jun Ruyu is really smart, he knows that no matter who pleads with the emperor in this matter, it is very unconvincing. poked at the weakness of the queen and Chen Tianfu, causing the people to make a fuss. Although the people seem to have the lowest status, they are also the most dare not offend the emperor.

Jun Fenglin thought in his heart, and unconsciously snorted coldly.

Unexpectedly, Jun Ruyu not only came up with this method, but also took the opportunity to bypass him.

It's a pity that the eldest prince in his eyes is probably still a good son who is as gentle as jade and has no quarrel with the world.

"That's right."

Just as Jun Fenglin was thinking about these things, the queen suddenly seemed to think of something, and shouted Jun Fenglin. "You still go to visit Lanxin more on weekdays, don't let the Taiwei Mansion feel that we cross the river and tear down the bridge, and we will ignore our daughter when she gets married."

"Erchen understands." Jun Feng Lin obediently responded.

"Zhang Lanxin has now become the third imperial concubine, Zhang Hengshu is the imperial guard, and the Taiwei Mansion is a treasure and can be of great use." The queen's tone was full of calculation.

"Zhang Hengshu is young and vigorous, somewhat untamable." Jun Fenglin sighed that Zhang Hengshu had made great achievements at a young age, and even he felt that Zhang Hengshu was a manufacturable material.

"I have my own way of taming him." The queen laughed. "The top priority now is to solve the chaos in the Chen Mansion."

Jun Feng responded, turned around and left Jinhua Palace.

As soon as the winter solstice passed, the weather suddenly cooled.

It is enough to wear only a thin cotton coat when the tribute conference is carried out, but this year, for some reason, there is still a month before the conference, and sometimes people who are cold think that it is the depths of winter.

Jun Shitong trembled coldly, and her hands unconsciously tightened the cloak on her shoulders.

"Princess, why don't we go back first, it's too cold outside, and the slave is afraid of blowing your body." Qingluan hesitated to propose with Jun Shitong.

It is rare for Jun Shitong to have this leisure to go out for a walk in the imperial garden, and she should have stayed outside for a while, but it was evening, and the cool breeze hit like a sword, cutting people's skin painfully. Jun Shitong's body was weak again, and Qingluan was really worried.

"Okay." Jun Shitong didn't shirk either, and responded softly, then turned his head and walked in the direction of Yongle Palace.

She is thin, and the wind blows Jun Shitong's clothes and sways wantonly, and others will think that Jun Shitong is also going to be blown away by the wind.

After not walking a few steps, Jun Shitong's chest suddenly felt a sharp pain.

"What's wrong with the princess?" Qingluan saw Jun Shitong stop and turned sideways to care and ask.

Jun Shitong tugged at his chest, shook his head, and before he could get up, a mouthful of blood gushed out.

"Ahh Qingluan was startled.

Jun Shitong's mind went blank, and without waiting for Qingluan to react, she fell to the ground heavily.

"Princess! Princess! ”

Qingluan's nervous shouts came from his ears, and several palace maids who passed by heard Qingluan's shouts and ran over, and Jun Shitong vaguely saw a few people coming.

Then, she closed her eyes.

In the imperial study, only a candle flickered on the table.

Minghuang's figure paced back and forth, and after some time, he heard a knock on the door outside.

"Father, how is Hitomi?" The first thing Jun Zhiyao did when he stepped into the imperial study was to nervously ask Jun Shitong about the situation.

I can't remember how many times Jun Shitong vomited blood and suddenly fainted, her body was so weak, but she couldn't find out the reason, Jun Shitong went back and forth for ten years.

The emperor searched for famous doctors in Daxing, but no one has found out the cause of Jun Shitong's illness so far.

"What about the miracle doctor?" The emperor was furious and urged impatiently.

"It's the son's poor behavior." Jun Zhiyao hurriedly knelt down and apologized. "The miracle doctor will be able to reach Daxing in three days."

Jun Zhiyao lowered his head, his brows furrowed tightly.

It's just a sick seedling who will die at any time, and he can use such effort. Jun Zhiyao didn't care. His heart was full of displeasure, and the emperor would blame himself for Jun Shitong.

"Are you sure the miracle doctor you said will arrive in three days?" The emperor was a little unconvinced, and repeatedly confirmed. "Hitomi's life can't afford to delay."

It's just that I don't know why I became like this, Jun Shitong is likely to die at any time. It is beyond everyone's expectation that she can persist in living in this world for ten years.

What's more, in recent days, Jun Shitong's reaction has become more and more intense, and even the emperor has to put down his government affairs and invite Jun Zhiyao to inquire non-stop.

"It's true, Erchen takes a head guarantee." Jun Zhiyao was categorical and spoke sonorously.

The emperor sighed helplessly and sat back in his chair. "As long as Hitomi still has a chance to survive, I will be at ease."

After all, she is the only princess in Daxing, and the emperor loves Jun Shitong very much, and the ministers of the court and the central government also see it.

"Father, there is one more thing for the son, I want to ask my father to agree."
