Chapter 115: She's Gone
At this time, there was still a tense posture outside the Seven Princes' Mansion, Luo Heng's expression was solemn, and Cheng Zirui was powerful, but a secret guard in the palace plus an ordinary guard, no matter how many people there were, could not compare to the prince to bring these.
With such a big move by the prince today, it stands to reason that Cheng Zirui's forces in Beijing will definitely come to reinforce, but now there is no news at all outside, which shows that this time the prince has indeed spent effort and effort.
Luo Heng couldn't help but be a little worried, and turned around and asked Cheng Zirui: "Lord Wang, what should I do now?" ”
Cheng Zirui's brows were deep, and his eyes were cold and angry.
The prince raised the holy decree in his hand, "Seventh brother, the holy decree is here, you refused to accept the decree, but instead brought so many people to block the door, what is your intention!" You simply despise the imperial power, you don't take your father and the emperor in your eyes at all, and you become a son, and you are simply afraid that the evidence of your collusion with foreign enemies will be discovered. ”
The more the prince spoke, the more it looked like this, and his voice became higher and higher, and his momentum became more and more powerful.
"If you plead now, this prince can still intercede for you in front of his father, if you are obsessed, then don't blame me, who is an elder brother, for being unkind."
"You have long been unable to see me, and there is no excuse for the sins you want to add. If this king were you, and for so much time gossiping, I am afraid that your head would already be in the hands of this king. ”
"Cheng Zirui, what are you talking about!" The prince was so angry that his face was blue and trembling. "Come on, first kill the traitor Cheng Zirui to the prince, and the prince will bear the responsibility if something happens!"
The person on the prince's side was about to rush forward when he got the order, Cheng Zirui suddenly pushed Luo Heng away, snatched the sword in his hand, pointed directly at the prince and said: "Today is my Cheng Zirui's big day, if anyone dares to make trouble again, this king will not tolerate it." ”
He took the sword back in his hand, and his movements were crisp and clean.
"What a soot woman said, the prince believed it? On the contrary, if what she said today was directly aimed at the prince, would the prince really be willing to bear this charge and let people take the opportunity of searching the East Palace to take that thing and seize it? ”
The prince's face changed, and Cheng Zirui exposed his conspiracy in public, and the expression on his face became more and more ugly.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
There was a mighty shout in the distance, and the people brought by the prince automatically got out of the way, only to see a mighty man in silver armor walking in and standing with the prince.
This person is the father of Miss Li, who once had a marriage contract with the Seventh Prince, Cheng Zirui, General Li.
General Li looked at the Seventh Prince and sneered: "The queen mother knows that the traitor Cheng Zirui will definitely not admit this crime, so she specially asked the ministers to bring troops over. As he spoke, he clasped his fists at the prince and said proudly: "The minister has three thousand elite soldiers, and the prince will send them." ”
Luo Heng's heart jumped, and everyone in the Seven Kings Mansion was also shocked. There are only a few dozen at most in the Seven Kings' Mansion, and there are probably a hundred more people including the secret guards. And what General Li brought was 3,000 elite soldiers!
If this battle is tough, they have almost no chance of winning.
"Lord Wang!"
Cheng Zirui held the sword tightly, and swept over the prince and the others with a gloomy face. Suddenly, his gaze turned directly to the direction of the imperial city, as if he was waiting for something.
Suddenly, there was the sound of horses' hooves, from far and near. However, the sound of horses' hooves stopped not far away, and the prince laughed uncontrollably, making no secret of his pride.
"Why, you're still hoping that someone will come to save you. Cheng Zirui, even the king of heaven can't save you today. ”
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, wait!"
Hearing this sharp voice, the brows of the crown prince and General Li were tightly wrinkled. Cheng Zirui raised his eyebrows, and he already had a calculation in his heart. He threw the sword back to Luo Heng, and when he saw the man squeezing in, he opened his mouth before the prince could speak.
"Father-in-law Fu."
Gonggong Fu is an old man in front of the emperor and a popular person of the emperor, and everyone in the palace and outside the palace who knows him has to respect him for three points. Even the prince or the crown prince did not dare to offend him easily.
The prince glared at Cheng Zirui, and then asked, "Father-in-law Fu will come over now, but what does the father command?" ”
Gonggong Fu nodded, smiled and took out a holy decree from his sleeve. "This is what the emperor meant."
The prince stretched out his hand to take it, but Gonggong Fu avoided him, "His Royal Highness the prince misunderstood, this holy decree is not for the prince, but for our family to proclaim." ”
Father-in-law Fu had already opened the holy decree as he spoke. Before he could start reading, Cheng Zirui knelt down first. The crown prince and General Li looked at each other, and they couldn't figure out what this meant, but now Cheng Zirui had already knelt down first, if they didn't kneel, this crime of contempt for imperial power would be much more serious than what Cheng Zirui had just now.
Cheng Zirui resisted and disobeyed just now, and only the people on both sides of them saw it. And now, Father-in-law Fu is present, and he can't be careless.
Gonggong Fu looked at Cheng Zirui with satisfaction, nodded slightly, and then read the holy decree.
The meaning of the holy decree is to let Cheng Zirui enter the palace with Gonggong Fu, and everything has its own holy judgment.
The prince was anxious, and stood up suddenly. "Then the evidence will not be searched?"
Gonggong Fu put away the holy decree, "Sou, the emperor means that let our family keep an eye on it, but we can't wronged the Seventh Prince." ”
Father-in-law Fu's words made Luo Heng and the others in the Seven Princes' Mansion secretly breathe a sigh of relief, since Father-in-law Fu can keep an eye on it, then the prince can't do anything on his side. But when Luo Heng's gaze fell on the prince, his heart sank again.
The prince smiled at the corner of his mouth, a smile that was bound to be won.
Cheng Zirui's eyes shrank suddenly, I am afraid that there is a person with a prince in the Seven Princes' Mansion, and that thing has already been placed in the palace. He glanced back and saw that Luo Heng was also looking at him, with inquiry in his eyes. He shook his head slightly, motioning for him not to act rashly.
Luo Heng secretly gritted his teeth, knowing that he was indeed too eye-catching, if he could take a step forward and find that thing first, the prince would not be able to take it to Zirui. He thought about it and gave the two secret guards a look, and the two secret guards quietly retreated, and the prince and the others didn't even notice it.
Cheng Zirui watched Luo Heng's small movements quietly, and he acquiesced to this approach.
"Father-in-law Fu, since my father is still waiting for the seventh brother to enter the palace, do we have to hurry?"
Gonggong Fu glanced at him and rushed over to Cheng Zirui. "Lord Wang, I'm offended."
Compared with his attitude towards the prince, Cheng Zirui was much more polite to his father-in-law. The prince was furious, and after the two of them entered, he couldn't help but point to the gate of the Seven Kings' Mansion and scolded: "It's okay to treat a eunuch like this, this palace is the prince!" It's his brother! He treats a eunuch more politely than he treats this prince, how can he ever take my prince in his eyes! ”
General Li next to him is a rough man, and he also follows his temperament when he speaks and does things, and when he heard the prince say this, he snorted coldly: "He is arrogant and arrogant, and he doesn't even take the emperor in his eyes, so how can he put the prince in his eyes." ”
The prince pinched the bright yellow holy decree, grinding his teeth with hatred, and in the blink of an eye, it was replaced by a cruel smile......
Cheng Zirui had just entered the mansion, and at a glance he saw a bamboo cloud standing not far away. His eyes were suffocated, and he walked over quickly.
Zhuyun was relieved to see that he was unscathed.
"What are you doing here? What about Qing'er? ”
Zhuyun gritted his teeth, "The slave maid locked the girl in the room. ”
Cheng Zirui's face sank suddenly, "You are so bold!" ”
Just as the prince and General Li came in, they saw Cheng Zirui talking to a little girl, and immediately said mockingly: "What's the matter, you still want to inform you in advance, so that someone can help you cover up?" ”
Cheng Zirui swept the prince with cold eyes, and immediately choked back the words in the prince's mouth.
He turned his gaze to Zhuyun again, "Go and guard, if Qing'er is wronged or has an accident, you should know what the consequences will be." ”
Zhuyun lowered his head in shock, feeling uneasy.
Zhuyun said goodbye and left, hurried to the front of the house, saw that the lock on the door was still the same as just now, no one had touched it at all, and grabbed the little girl who had been ordering to guard the door to ask about the situation, and the little girl shook her head again and again, saying that everything was normal. Zhuyun's face changed, he took out the key and opened the door, and rushed in directly.
Tong Yuqing's shadow had long been lost in the house, leaving a messy bed.
Zhuyun hurriedly ran out of the door, and the little girl who was supposed to be guarding the door suddenly disappeared......
Zhuyun's heart is cold, this time, how should she explain to Cheng Zirui!
Cheng Zirui here sat in the hall, with a cup of hot silver needle in his hand. The prince sat on the other side, General Li sat at the bottom, but Gonggong Fu followed the prince's people to search for stolen goods, Luo Heng was not at ease, and also followed.
The atmosphere in the hall was very delicate, the prince stared at Cheng Zirui, but Cheng Zirui only cared about leisurely sipping tea, and glanced at General Li from time to time.
General Li was quite imposing at first, but gradually he was overwhelmed by Cheng Zirui's compelling aura. I was about to go out for a walk and see the situation, but I saw a girl running outside in a panic.
Cheng Zirui's eyebrows jumped, and his sharp gaze swept over. After Zhuyun came to the door, she didn't dare to break in anymore, she stood at the door with an anxious look.
The prince recognized Zhuyun, and when he opened his mouth to mock, he said: "What, you can't hide it, and you came to find the main heart in a panic?" ”
Cheng Zirui stood up suddenly, and his strength was so great that the table next to him trembled, and the tea cup on the table almost turned over. He walked out quickly, "What's the matter?" ”
Zhuyun was hoarse, and his face was pale. "She's gone."
Cheng Zirui's eyes were suffocated, pinching Zhuyun's neck, and he was furious. "What did you say?"
"Lord Wang!"
Father-in-law Fu walked towards this side with an indistinguishable expression, and Luo Heng's face beside him was also not good-looking. Zhuyun had probably guessed that his legs were weak and he fell to the ground.
Cheng Zirui's heart sank, and he passed the two of them, and saw that the person sent by the prince to search behind him was holding a box that he had never seen before.
"Your Highness, the stolen goods are here."
