Chapter 172: Imprisoned

After Yan Wanjun left, Shen Yu'an and the Queen Mother immediately walked to the bedside of the Ninth Princess to inspect the situation, and saw that the Ninth Princess's complexion was ruddy again, her lips were no longer gray, and she was a little angry, so she let go of the heart that had been hanging.

"This time it's thanks to King Xun, otherwise Xiao Jiu'er's life may not be guaranteed." The Queen Mother patted her chest and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Yes, I will personally come to the door another day to thank King Xun, he saved Jiu'er, and he is my savior." Shen Yu'an gently wiped the face of the ninth princess with a hand towel and said softly.

"By the way, hurry up and inform the emperor and tell him that Jiu'er's life is not in danger." The Queen Mother turned her head and instructed the palace maid beside her.

"Yes, slave and maid will go." The palace maid on the side nodded, and walked towards the imperial study.

Chao Lingwen is in the imperial study to review the excerpts of the previous days, these days there are big and small things everywhere, there are more excerpts than before, Chao Lingwen looks at these excerpts is really a little headache.

When he was holding his forehead and closing his eyes to take a nap, the eunuch outside the door came to report that the palace maid of the Ninth Princess's bedroom had something to see.

Chao Lingwen was disturbed to rest, a little upset, frowned, and waved his hand to signal the eunuch to let her in.

After a while, the palace maid hurriedly ran in, knelt down first, and then said happily: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother asked me to inform you that the Ninth Princess is no longer in danger of life, but she has not woken up yet." ”

Hearing the palace maid say this, Chao Lingwen felt a little strange, isn't there no way for the imperial doctor in this palace, the person he sent out to find acupuncture therapy has not yet returned, and how did the ninth princess get out of danger.

Thinking about it, Chao Lingwen looked at the palace maid with some suspicion and asked, "How did the ninth princess get out of danger?" ”

"If you go back to the emperor, it was the Queen Mother who went to King Xun's Mansion to find King Xun, and King Xun used acupuncture to save the Nine Princesses, and King Xun said that the Nine Princesses were just out of danger of life, and those who didn't wake up came to see the creation." The palace maid replied respectfully.

King Xun! Sure enough, he was still invited, the ninth princess is his daughter, and the fact that King Xun saved the ninth princess is equivalent to that he owes King Xun a favor, although he doesn't want to admit it, but this is also an undeniable fact.

Chao Ling Wen was a little annoyed, he originally suppressed Yan Wanjun everywhere, in order to make him have no future, today he saved the ninth princess, and in a few days, everyone in the palace will know, then everything he has done during this time will be in vain.

The more Chao Ling Wen thought about it, the more angry he became, and slapped it on the desk, the sound startled the palace maid who was originally full of joy, raised her head and looked at the emperor with wide eyes, a little unclear, thinking that she didn't say anything well, which angered the emperor.

"Okay, it's none of your business, let's go down." Chao Lingwen noticed that there was still a palace maid standing in his imperial study, so he waved her hand and let her go down.

The palace maid hurriedly bowed her head and saluted, turned around and left the imperial study.

"Since you can't suppress Yan Wanyun, let Xu Langyin treat him to bear it." Chao Lingwen narrowed his eyes and muttered to himself.

The next day, above the court.

Xu Langyin was a little confused, and couldn't figure out why the emperor summoned her today.

Chao Lingwen looked at Xu Langyin's blank face at the bottom of the stairs, smiled a little contemptuously, and gestured to the Wenchen next to him.

Wen Chen received the emperor's signal, stood up, cleared his throat, and said word by word: "Recently, the ninth princess went to the construction site of Xu Langyin's general mansion to inspect the people's situation, but she never wanted to be hit on the head by a stone, and the blood did not stop, although there is no danger to life, but she is still in bed unconscious. ”

When Xu Langyin heard Wen Chen say this, his eyes widened in disbelief, and he said righteously: "This lord, listening to what you mean, I suspect that I deliberately smashed the Ninth Princess, and I have a deep relationship with the Ninth Princess, and I have no grievances, so why do I want to murder her." ”

"The ninth princess is a royal noble, with a noble status, and a simple mind, so naturally there will be some people with bad intentions who want to take advantage of her." Chao Lingwen said slowly.

"The ninth princess was injured because I failed to handle the safety of the construction site, and I admit this crime, but to say that I deliberately murdered the ninth princess is slander." Xu Langyin couldn't stand that he was so slandered, and not to be outdone, he shot back.

"Presumptuous, dare to talk to the emperor like this!" Wen Chen on the side scolded.

"You say that I slandered you, so I will count your sins." Chao Lingwen looked at Xu Langyin's stubborn expression, and felt a little funny, with such a small general's mansion, can't I deal with it.

"Knowing that the construction site is dangerous but still letting the ninth princess stay at the construction site, what is the intention, why did the stone fall but hit the ninth princess, this construction site is full of your subordinates, all under your instructions, you said, all kinds of signs, it is not that you deliberately use the affection of the ninth princess and you to murder her, how else."

"I said no, no, I am not afraid of shadows, I have never had these thoughts, and the fall of the stone is just an accident." Xu Lang said sharply, not afraid of the emperor's power at all.

"All the above criminal evidence points to you, you are still trying to quibble, come to someone, drag Xu Langyin down to me, deliberately plot to kill the emperor's relatives and relatives, and openly quibble above the court, it is really a heinous crime, put me in prison and wait for my fate." Chao Ling Wen waved his sleeves and shouted in order.

As soon as the words fell, a team of soldiers in armor and swords rushed in outside the door, and they stopped Xu Langyin, Xu Langyin was just a woman after all, even if he grew up in the general's mansion and practiced martial arts, his strength was still no match for a strong man, and he was held without the power to fight back, and he couldn't move, so he could only let himself be carried to the prison.

She knew that the Ninth Princess and Xu Langyin had always had a very good relationship, and Xu Langyin would definitely not be able to deliberately murder this kind of thing, so Xu Langyin must have been slandered and murdered this time.

This construction site is Xu Langyin's painstaking efforts, and most of his energy and money are spent on this construction site every day, and it is a pity that the work suddenly stops in the middle of the process.

Fu Jiu knew that he had to get in touch with Hui Langyin as soon as possible in order to inform her of the situation at the construction site and the solution.

Fu Jiu remembered that she had a friend who seemed to know a few guards who guarded the gates of the prison, and those guards were greedy for money and lustful, and they were addicted to wine and meat all day long, but they were also easy to buy.

Thinking of this, Fu Jiu went to the best tavern in the city to buy some wine and meat, prepared some silver, and after dressing up, found her friend, and entrusted him to make an appointment with the guards to a bamboo forest on the edge of the prison.

"Hurry up, just say something, Lao Tzu is still waiting to go back to drink." One of the guards was a little impatient.

"Eh, all the officials, don't worry, the little ones have something to ask the officials." Fu Gong stuck to his beard and lowered his throat, like a little old man.

"What's the matter, I'm not that kind, I have the leisure to take care of your." The guard looked Fu Jiu up and down, and said with a frown.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the little one has a daughter who is locked up in the prison, I haven't seen it for many days, I want to visit and visit, there are some good hot wine and meat and some silver here, it is a little bit of a small heart, and please smile at it." As he spoke, he opened the box he had been carrying.

When the guards heard this, they took the box and reached out to play with it a few times, and after seeing that there was indeed silver and wine and meat, they laughed a few times.

"It's easy to say, you go down to see your daughter, I can still help with this little thing." The guard holding the box said with a smile on his face.

"Okay, then it's hard work for you." After speaking, Fu Jiu bowed his hand, and hurriedly went down to the prison to find the place where Xu Langyin was held.

There are many houses in the sky, and Fu Jiu has been looking for a long time but has not found the place where Xu Langyin was imprisoned, so in desperation, he had to ask a little brother who was being detained and was eating.

"This little brother, do you know where a handsome woman who was escorted in a few days ago is being held."

The little brother who was eating raised his head and looked at the furrow, stretched out his chopsticks and pointed in a direction, then lowered his head and continued to eat.

After receiving the instructions, Fu Jiu didn't have time to thank her, so she hurried over there, knowing that she couldn't stay too long, otherwise she would be easily discovered.

After looking for a distance, I finally saw Xu Langyin leaning against the wall and closing his eyes and resting in a narrow cell in the westernmost corner.

Fu Jiu hurriedly ran over and shouted in a low voice: "Lang Yin, Lang Yin, it's me." ”

Xu Langyin heard the familiar voice, and thought it was his own illusion, but when he opened his eyes, he saw Fu Jiu in disguise, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, so he quickly got up and walked to the side of Fu Jiu, and asked anxiously: "Fu Jiu, why are you here." ”

"I heard the news that you were in prison, and I knew that someone must have harmed you, you are not here, the construction site has stopped, I am here to ask you what to do." Fu Xuan said softly.

"What, the construction site is suspended, even if I am not there, the construction site must be well constructed, and it must be expanded as soon as possible." Xu Langyin grabbed Fu Jiu's hand and said firmly.

After a pause, Xu Langyin said: "After that, the materials and plans of the construction site will be handed over to you, and I have prepared a sketch of the plan, in my room, you can take my token to get it, as for the materials, you must go to the best store in the city to buy, and the original craftsmen will be resigned, and then go to find better craftsmen, and the quality must be guaranteed." ”

After speaking, he took a jade pendant from his waist and put it in Fu Jiu's hand.

"Langyin, don't worry, the construction site will be handed over to me, you stay here for a few days first, ensure your safety, and I will come to rescue you in a few days." Fu Jiu clenched the jade pendant and instructed.

"I know, you don't have to worry, the emperor won't do anything to me for the time being, my family is a general's mansion, and he holds the military power, and if he moves me, the emperor won't be able to ask for anything." Xu Langyin smiled and relieved Fu Xuan.

"Okay, then I'll go first, I'll come back in a few days." Fu Jiu estimated that the time was almost up, and he couldn't stay for a long time, so he said goodbye to Xu Langyin and quickly prepared to leave.

When passing by the cell of the little brother who had originally given him the direction, Fu Jiu took out a piece of silver from his bosom, threw it to the little brother, and said, "Thank you, use this money to buy the guards and let you out." ”

After speaking, regardless of the little brother's grateful eyes, he walked out of the prison quickly.
