The crown prince Li Cong had already taken out the long knife at his side and threw it on the ground.

Who is Li Cong?

When he was the crown prince, he lingered on the sickbed for several years. Although he also took the life of the speaker on the street, where did the spokesman dare to resist, he just let Li Cong kill him.

Can he now single-handedly kill an assassin who is clearly prepared?

Li Zhang's expression was also very bad.

He knew that Li Cong had learned some boxing and kicking from Taifu, but it was only for physical fitness, and if he wanted to block the assassins who were on the table, he might have no life.

However, he glanced at Su Qiang, who was obviously injured, and was glad in his heart.

No matter how the prince does it, Qiang'er is fine, nothing is fine.

"This knife is not easy to use, it was taken from the forbidden army on the way to the palace. However, the two assassins were killed with the dagger of Hongu. He said and glanced at Su Qiang.

Su Qiang exhaled in her heart and lowered her head.

He realized that she was using a dagger. Otherwise, he threw out a big knife like this, and when he examined the wound, he would be exposed.

However, a few of the older members of the clan still don't look good.

Brought a dagger into the palace, and it was during the emperor's serious illness. What does the prince want to do? Want to force the palace offside?

But if you just take a dagger, it doesn't seem to be going to work.

Everyone thinks so, but no one dares to ask.

In the air like condensation, he then spoke: "This palace heard me right, the prince came with a dagger?" ”

Li Cong sneered casually and said, "Don't be angry, don't be angry, when you see that dagger, you will know that it is very small, and it is used by my son to play with." ”

After half-believing his face away, Li Cong looked at Su Qiang and motioned for her to take out the dagger.

Su Qiang raised her eyes to look at Jihou, not afraid of the surrounding eyes, and said calmly: "Just now in the fire, the prince's dagger fell inside, and someone has to find it." ”

Because she opened her mouth to speak, all the clansmen in the clan looked at her.

Her light-colored clothes were stained with soot, and her face was even whiter. The expression is calm and calm, which makes people who have been speculating a lot more at ease.

Several older people felt that she was stable and self-controlled, and she really deserved her current position.

Several young people admired her for not messing up, and praised her a little in their hearts.

And several people of the same age, most of them saw her face for the first time. Although the prince always covered her face with his shoulders, just looking at that posture had already made them admire in their hearts and feel a little more jealous of the prince.

Then he also looked at her, with a little fear in his eyes. Su Qiang's retracted gaze was meeting her gaze, and Rou Ya smiled and said, "The queen mother sent her daughter-in-law to come to the library to get the scriptures, and the daughter-in-law found it, and it is here." ”

She said and took out a scroll of sutra from her bosom, which was the "Medicine Master Sutra" copied by Yaqing Shenni.

The lotus step moved slightly, walked to the front of the follower, and presented the sutra with both hands.

"The daughter-in-law is fortunate not to be dishonored, she found this scripture, and now she will hand it over to the queen mother."

Suffering from this ordeal, she had to let the clan relatives present know why she was here.

Sure enough, King Suwu, the uncle of Emperor Xuancheng in the sect, stepped forward and said with a bit of reprimand: "Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess came to this remote library and was almost intercepted and killed by assassins. What is this book so valuable? Can you afford to be the crown princess of a country? ”

The next face turned the color of pork liver.

Before she could speak, the regent Li Zhang explained to her: "This king heard that the female dependents were copying the scriptures, and the crown princess came here to pick up the last one because she didn't get it." ”

"Exactly." Su Qiang said indifferently in the somewhat cruel gaze that followed: "Speaking of which, where was the Wai Hao who led the way for his daughter-in-law at that time?" My daughter-in-law wants to ask, she sent me and the third prince into the library and left, did you see the person who set the fire, and what he looked like. ”

Then he pretended to be calm and said: "You are talking about Chen Haoxi, and after the palace ordered her to send you over, she will go back to serve Bimo." ”

Su Qiang nodded, looked at Li Zhang with a pair of eyes, with a little vigilance and dissatisfaction, and said lightly: "His Royal Highness the Prince Regent heard it, if you want to interrogate, do you also ask this Chen Xixi." ”

"That's nature." Li Zhang tried his best to keep himself calm.

Su Qiang said word by word, although she didn't doubt the meaning of the follow-up, but outside the words, unless she was a fool, she would be a little suspicious.

He couldn't think of any reason why his mother would take the risk of killing the crown princess.

And her mother knows who she Su Qiang is.

is the person on the tip of his son's heart.

The face of the county lord who was watching from a short distance was also pale.

She just helped the successor pass on a word, but she didn't expect Su Qiang to come here to encounter an assassination.

If Su Qiang died, the crown prince would inevitably blame himself, and then it would be impossible for him and His Royal Highness the crown prince.

Her heart was like a thorn in it, cold and hard.

In remorse, I saw the prince turn around and look at her. That glance was as cold as autumn water, which made her heart tremble inexplicably. She couldn't stand any longer, and walked back in despair.

Li Zhang, who was here, was also uncomfortable, he held his breath for a moment, tried to recover some of his senses, and said: "This is the case for the time being, please return to the side hall of the elders and relatives." The stakes are so high that the king will report the results of the interrogation to his father. The crown prince and the crown princess are frightened today, please go back and rest first. ”

That means you don't have to wait for illness.

Li Cong seemed to be waiting for this, and when he heard this, he had already picked up Su Qiang horizontally and put him in the sedan chair that came to pick him up.

This is the sedan chariot given by the emperor to the crown prince.

Qu Fang, who arranged for the sedan chair to come with him, was a little surprised on his face, and he whispered: "This, Your Highness......"

"Rubbing what?" Li Cong was a little dissatisfied, and in the surprised eyes of the clan elders and the successors and Li Zhang, Shi Shiran stood up and said, "Who knows if Qiang'er is pregnant with Longsun, this fright, what if there is a good one?" What if my father finds out and adds to my worries? Hold it up. ”

As he spoke, he was already standing beside the sedan chair and personally supporting the lifting bar on one side. It seems like it's as common as getting dressed and groomed every day.

Su Qiang gave him a blank look in her heart.

What a dragon grandson.

He's going to make excuses.

If you can't give birth after ten months, won't it make the big teeth laugh inside and outside the palace.

However, Li Cong didn't seem to care about this, he still didn't have any courtesy, and he didn't say goodbye to his successors and the clansmen, so he walked back slowly with the sedan chair.

When a few people disappeared at the end of the corridor, they and everyone withdrew their gaze. For a while, there was a face of everything.

"Queen Mother......" Li Zhang accompanied the queen and instructed the attendant to lift the sedan chair.

"Let's go." Ji Hou seemed to be extremely tired, and said slowly: "They are resting, and this palace can't rest." The palace still has to guard His Majesty, and when His Majesty wakes up, the palace will inevitably bear the guilt of petitioning. ”

Li Zhang nodded, and his eyes took a deep look at the end of the road.

There seemed to be a wisp of soul that disappeared with that thin shadow, and it couldn't be chased back.
