Chapter 459: The Prince's Questioning
Lin Changsheng supported Mu Jiu in time and let her lean into his arms, "Let's go back?" ”
"Hmm."
Usually, there is a curfew in the capital at this time, but the crown princess has a good means and obtains a special order through the queen and the emperor, and those who hold the diagnosis number can go back later tonight, Mu Jiu and Lin Changsheng On the way back, they met several patrolling soldiers, and they were released after seeing the free doctor certificate on their bodies.
……
I haven't been so busy for a long time, but fortunately, I usually pay attention to my practice, and Mu Jiu feels pretty good, at least not like in the free clinic in Qizhou, where he can't get up the next day.
The next day, Mu Jiu woke up on time, but Lin Changsheng was not there.
Rose hurriedly knocked on her door, "Master, something is wrong!" ”
"Come in and say." Mujiuliso got out of bed and got dressed.
Rose came in and closed the door, "Master, the old general of Nangong was assassinated and killed last night. ”
The Nangong family is the queen's mother's family, the same as the family of the princess Sun, the generation of military generals, when the Xia Emperor ascended the throne with the credit of the Nangong family, and later the old general Nangong was injured and retired, the son inherited his father's business, and the Nangong general went to the battlefield.
Two years later, General Nangong died on the battlefield, and after that, the Nangong family never had any leading figures, and it gradually declined.
This is also one of the reasons why the queen's mother's family is not strong, so that the status of the crown prince is shaken by the second prince and the third prince.
If someone fanned the flames in the queen's ear, saying that the assassination of the old general Nangong was because of yesterday's free clinic, which led to the lax curfew last night, the assassin had a chance.
The queen is bound to have an estrangement with the crown princess!
This is what the second prince and the third prince like to see the most!
Mu Jiu got dressed, "What about Changsheng?" ”
"Uncle went out early in the morning." Rose was still holding breakfast in her hand, "Uncle instructed, when you wake up, I will serve you for breakfast, and then go to Sun's house." ”
"I see."
Without waiting for Mu Jiu to go to Sun's house, Sun Zeyun had already come.
In the end, he is a teenager of thirteen or fourteen, and once something happens and he is not sure of his idea, he will come to someone he trusts.
And during this time, Mu Jiu was the person he trusted the most!
"Sister, what does my sister mean, let me ask you, what can I do?"
"You sit down and talk slowly." Mu Jiucai didn't believe that the crown princess had no idea, and asked her if she just wanted to hear more about other people's opinions to prevent her from missing something.
"When I went back last night, the prince scolded my sister." Sun Zeyun was indignant, "Is the prince going to spoil his concubine and kill his wife!" “
Not again!
"Second son Sun, it's good to say such things here in the future, don't tell anyone else." That's enough to kill your head!
"Isn't this a look, sister, you don't cheat me? How dare I say anything else! Sun Zeyun said, "Sister, my sister has gone to Nangong's house, but the queen's face is not good, I am afraid that I will have a dislike with my sister in the future." ”
"Don't worry, the crown princess has already gone to Nangong Mansion, which means that she has thought of a way, don't worry, sit down for a while, and I'll come when I go." Mu Jiu asked Rose to greet Sun Zeyun, "I have to prepare something." ”
Rose was puzzled, "Is the master going out?" ”
"You also prepare, and we will go to the Prince's Mansion later." After Mu Jiu finished speaking, he ignored Rose's confused eyes and went into the pharmacy.
Sun Zeyun was ignored, followed behind Mu Jiu, and also entered the pharmacy.
In normal times, Mu Jiu doesn't let anyone enter the pharmacy, but Sun Zeyun runs a pharmaceutical factory with her, so it doesn't matter if she comes in.
"Sister, you really have everything here!" Sun Zeyun sighed, and was about to touch those bottles, but was stopped by Mu Jiu.
"Don't move! That stuff is poisonous! ”
"No, sister, don't be kidding." Sun Zeyun immediately retracted his hand and didn't dare to move again, "I haven't married a daughter-in-law yet!" ”
"I'm not kidding, these things are highly poisonous, if you don't believe it, you can try it, I have an antidote."
Sun Zeyun: "......"
Silently took a few steps back, leaning against the door, lest the ground be stained with poisonous powder.
I have to say that he is the truth, there is really poison powder on the ground, but it is not the location where he is standing, but on the ground in front of a few blue bottles, and the smell powder is sprinkled on the ground for tracking, once it is stained, it may not be washed off when you change your shoes.
Mu Jiu tinkered in the pharmacy for a while, filled several white bottles into his pocket, and left the pharmacy.
Before leaving the pharmacy, Rose walked in with a strange face, "Master, someone from the Prince's Mansion has come." ”
"I see." Mu Jiu walked out calmly.
"Master, how do you know?" Rose stared at Mu Jiu with bubbling eyes, "Master, you are God, this can also be calculated!" ”
"Yesterday, I joined forces with the crown princess to bully Yan Ruyu, she didn't blow the wind on the pillow when she went back at night, is it still called Yan Ruyu?"
In her previous life, Yan Ruyu was bullied by anyone and said bad things, and she had to come to complain to her and beg her to help her.
Now that I think about it, I was so stupid back then!
"Second son Sun, you go back first and tell the crown princess that the murderer will naturally return her innocence."
Lin Changsheng went out so early, he must have heard the news early in the morning and went out to investigate.
After all, the plan to wait for Jingzhao Mansion to file a case and then do an investigation is estimated to be two hours later, and two hours is enough for the murderer to escape.
The people who followed the prince to the prince's mansion, looking at the vermilion bronze door, the red lanterns, and the majestic guards standing on both sides, Mu Jiu couldn't help but feel sad.
Three years ago, she was a frequent visitor here, when the crown princess had just entered the mansion, and Yan Ruyu was also able to come in twice because of her. It's really ironic, now Yan Ruyu has become half the owner of this mansion, and she has become a different person.
Taking a deep breath and suppressing the myriad thoughts in his heart, Mu Jiu pretended to be unfamiliar with this place and followed the attendant and entered the Cangsong Courtyard where the prince lived.
At this time, the prince was practicing swords in the courtyard, the snowflakes were fluttering, and he didn't know if the snow fell in his hair, or he was born early, Mu Jiu actually felt that he was much older, although he was practicing swords, he had lost his former momentum like a rainbow, and the sword wind was soft and weak, as if he was playing tricks, not practicing the skills of killing enemies.
The moment Mu Jiu shook her head, the attendant reprimanded her dissatisfiedly, "What are you looking at, how can the prince be qualified to watch by someone like you?" ”
Only then did Mu Jiu remember that now her identity was low to the dust, and she quickly lowered her head.
The prince put away the sword, and Yan Ruyu immediately sent a cloak to help him put it on, "Your Highness is so powerful!" ”
The prince handed his sword to his retinue and walked to the pavilion in the courtyard and sat down.
The pavilion has a stove, even if the surrounding ice and snow, the pavilion is still warm like spring, and the snow around the pavilion melts to produce a large amount of soda, enveloping the whole pavilion, and being in it is like being in a dreamland.
The attendant brought Mu Jiu to the pavilion, "Don't hurry up and kneel down yet!" ”
Mu Jiu and Rose knelt down in a proper manner, "The people see His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Chitose Chitose Chitose!" ”
"Get up!" The prince's tone was very bad.
Yan Ruyu said softly, "Don't be angry, the prince said, it really has nothing to do with her, don't listen to Tian'er." ”
Mu Jiu understood, so it was so, he pretended to be a white lotus and didn't say anything, borrowed Tian'er's mouth to let the prince know, and then persuaded the prince a few more words, and his reputation for kindness was born.
What a means!
Mu Jiu stood up and lowered his head, the prince was a few years older than her, and because of the relationship between the queen mother, he took very good care of her.
But now, for the sake of Yan Ruyu, he actually questioned her sharply, "I heard that you and the crown princess teamed up to bully Yu'er?" ”
"The women don't dare!" Mu Jiu is neither arrogant nor humble, "Maybe the tone of the woman yesterday was not good, but the woman can explain, there were too many people yesterday, the woman was very busy, and the tone was a little worse, but if the concubine Niangniang wants to see a doctor, she can come to the woman through her senior brother, there is really no need to go to grab resources with the poor people yesterday." ”
The crown prince snorted indifferently, "So, is it the concubine of this palace who is wrong?" ”
Mu Jiu raised his head, and when he looked closely, the prince really looked much older, so he quickly lowered his head, "The women don't dare." ”
"Don't dare, not no, so in your heart, do you still think that the concubine of this palace is wrong?"
Mu Jiu's thin eyebrows were twisted together, when did the prince become so unreasonable?
"No, not the women."
The dry remarks made the prince very dissatisfied, and he was about to reprimand Mu Jiu, but was persuaded by Yan Ruyu, her voice was as gentle as water, "Your Highness, don't scare people." ”
"Humph!" The prince pulled Yan Ruyu to sit down beside him, "You, you're just too kind." Tian'er is right, anyone can bully you. ”
"How can there be, people are obviously good, but Tian'er is talkative." Yan Ruyu rubbed the prince's arm, "Your Highness, Yu'er is fine, let's not be angry, okay?" ”
Mu Jiu, why did you go earlier, and didn't wait for the prince to "arrest" her before saying this in front of her?
If you don't say it, because it's useless to say it, the prince only trusts Yan Ruyu!
Mu Jiu stared at his toes coldly, trying to calm himself down, so as not to be angry with these two people.
The rose was close to Mu Jiu, warming each other with her in this cold and snowy day.
After the prince was persuaded by Yan Ruyu, his tone was still bad, but he was relieved, "Since Yu'er intercedes for you, this palace will spare you once, and now you come and tell me, why are you called Mu Jiu?" ”
Mu Jiu replied truthfully, "I am the ninth in the family, because I am a girl and cannot be taken seriously, so my grandfather directly gave me a single word nine, which is called Mu Jiu." ”
"You're not qualified to be called by that name!" The prince's face was gloomy, "Changed!" ”
"But this is the name that my grandfather gave me, and it is on the genealogy, if I change it, I have to go back to Qizhou Mansion and go to the Yamen to revise the household registration documents, and the genealogy must also ......be changed."
Mu Jiu pretended to be very scared, and the more he spoke, the quieter he became.
But the prince is not negotiable, "What's the matter with me, if you want to change it, you can change it!" ”
"Why?" Mu Jiusheng was like a mosquito and a fly, and his whole body seemed to be full of fear.
"You are not qualified to call the name Mu Jiu!" The crown prince repeated, "Are you questioning the main palace? ”
"Your Highness, don't be angry, I knew that this would happen, so Yu'er replaced Tian'er and found someone who couldn't speak." Yan Ruyu is coquettish.
