Chapter 66: Suspicion
No matter which concubine in the harem dies, it is insignificant to the imperial city of Nuoda, and no one will be affected by this.
It sounds better to say that it is a concubine who has served the emperor, a concubine of a dynasty, who was once beautiful, but if she dies, she is dead, and sometimes she is not even as good as a palace maid and eunuch.
The fall of the Zhu family and the fire of the Zhu Mansion completely turned over the old chapter of the Zhu family in the history of the Jimo Dynasty.
There was silence in the main hall, and a tall black figure jumped down from the roof, without making a sound, and then fell to his knees expressionlessly.
"What did you find?" Emperor Jimo put down the imperial pen in his hand as expected, and looked in the direction of the black shadow, his expression was as usual.
"Your Majesty, the day before the concubine passed away, the princess and the princess had been to the Ruhui Palace, and when the prince left, he took the little prince from the Rue Palace..."
Obviously, this person is the emperor's confidant, and when he talks about what happened in the palace that day, he doesn't let go of the slightest detail.
Including the plot of how the princess was lifted and pressed to the rockery by the second prince that day, not to mention how the princess arrogantly entered the palace of the concubine and provoked the tears of the concubine, the black shadow reported to the Jimo Emperor clearly.
"Let's go down!" Emperor Jimo waved his hand, and the black shadow disappeared in place, as if there was only Emperor Jimo in this hall from beginning to end.
"Old five, old five, I have been so accustomed to seeing no one like this all these years..."Emperor Mo let out a sigh as if he didn't have it.
Perhaps the emperor will tolerate his son in other ways, but he can't do it in the matter of harem concubines, which has largely challenged the dignity of Emperor Jimo as a man.
The house leak happened to rain overnight, and after all, it still fell on the head of the prince.
Not only has the power of the Bao Yu faction in the court been suppressed many times by the two princes, but even the palace is extremely unpeaceful, and it is also thanks to the thunderous means of the prince who turned over the clouds and covered the rain, otherwise there would be one more unfavored prince in Beijing.
Since the return of Zhufu, the princess thought that she wanted to be quiet, and lived in two rooms with the anxious prince of the eyes, not only that, but the princess also ignored the little prince, which made the princess plan to play a trick of family card, and drowned directly in the cradle.
Although the prince took his son to the princess's room every day to eat and talk together, it was only the voice of the prince who spoke, and the babbling laughter of the little prince.
The atmosphere in the palace suddenly sank to the bottom, as if there was a dark cloud in the sky, which just covered the sunlight shining into the palace, and the people looked at the eyes of the prince and acted one after another, for fear that there would be something wrong with him.
"You answer this king, why is the princess in a bad mood these days?" The prince summoned a few big maids in the mansion and spoke with a stiff face.
The maids looked at each other, but they didn't know whether to say or not, only to lower their heads and not to lower their heads.
"Lord Wang, since the princess came back from Zhu's mansion, she is like a different person, she doesn't say a word, she just sits alone in the house, and she stays for half a day, and the slaves and maids don't dare to speak." One of the maids whispered.
Everyone didn't expect that the usually cold and serious prince would seek the help of their subordinates for the princess, which was really tormenting them.
So, with the first person who dared to reply, the second and third people stood up, and everyone reported the princess in their eyes in the past few days, but after talking for a long time, it was nothing more than two things, one was that the princess was unhappy, and the other was that it might be related to the fire in Zhufu.
This time, the prince was implicated by the Zhu Mansion for no reason, and Le Zhengyu didn't understand why he suddenly felt very tired, and he was depressed and unhappy all the time, and it was difficult to relieve it.
She also understands that she can't complain about Jimo because of this, and she also knows that if she is Jimo, she will do the same, but as long as she thinks that Zhu Mansion was burned down by fire because of Zhu Guifei's matter, she feels bored for no reason.
"Princess, someone has come to the palace." Ziyi walked in and stood beside Le Zhengyu.
"Oh!" Le Zhengyu only uttered such a single syllable, and then turned and walked towards the hall.
Behind her, Ziyi looked at her slender back worriedly, and her heart was also mixed and entangled for no reason.
"Father-in-law, what's the matter?" Le Zhengyu stood still in the hall, and Jimo Yu, who was holding his son, asked.
"The slave was ordered by the emperor to convey the holy will to the prince and the princess, and the emperor ordered our family to inform the prince that in a few days it will be the day when the country will pay tribute to me, this is the last year of tribute, and the emperor hopes that the prince can meet the envoys of this tribute."
Gonggong De looked at Jimo Yu, arched his hand in the direction of the imperial city, and spoke.
Le Zhengyu in front of him didn't say a word, he stood in a daze, his eyes were full of hollowness, and he didn't care if anyone was present, he just stood like that, thinking that Jimo was going to leave after receiving the order, but who knew that Gonggong De turned around with a smile and arched his hand in the direction of Le Zhengyu.
"Princess Niangniang, there are also envoys of Fengguo who are visiting this time, and the monarch of Fengguo has sent the prince of Fengguo to visit this time, and His Majesty hopes that the princess Niangniang will personally greet you, improve the relationship between my Jimo Dynasty and Fengguo, and avoid a war on the northern border."
Before Le Zhengyu could speak, Jimo Yu next to him took the first step to ask: "Why did the envoys of the two countries visit at the same time and let the princess greet them, didn't the second prince start the affairs of Fengguo in previous years?" ”
"Oh, Lord Wang, you are a difficult slave, how dare our family arbitrarily speculate on the meaning of the saint?" When these words heard in the ears of everyone, it was clear that they were saying, 'O lord! You are doubting Your Majesty's decision, and you are going to be unlucky'.
"Then who is from Yue Guo this year?" Jimo didn't care about the implied meaning of Father-in-law's words, and looked at Father-in-law De with a proud face.
Unexpectedly, Gonggong De's eyes moved, and he said, "Oh! I heard that the monarch of Yue sent Princess Yeyu and Prince Hamol of Yue Kingdom, and the old slave also overheard the emperor and Lord Liang discussing. ”
Gonggong De took the heavy reward silver, turned around happily and went back to the palace, leaving everyone in the palace to guess in the same place.
"Ziyi, send a message to Ying Yang and ask what the hell Feng Xie is doing?" Le Zhengyu opened his mouth to the purple clothes outside the room.
Just when she heard Gonggong De say that the prince of Fengguo was coming, and asked her to meet by name, she knew that this must have nothing to do with the phoenix evil, and it must be that this demon has some kind of ghost idea.
"Princess, can't it be that the monarch of the Feng Kingdom sent the crown prince to Jimo?" Ziyi walked in and spoke.
"It's impossible, I came a few years ago, but this year, I asked me to pick him up, the monarch of Fengguo doesn't pay attention to the fact that the prince of Jimo married a new princess."
Listening to Le Zhengyu's words, Ziyi hesitated for a moment and said, "Maybe it was Gongzi Feng who also happened to want to see how the princess was doing now?" Or come and see Xiao Shizi? ”
"No way, something is wrong!" Le Zhengyu said bluntly.
As Le Zhengyu said, the monarch of Fengguo doesn't care about which prince of Jimo marries whose daughter as his wife, and Feng Xie does not voluntarily come to Jimo as an envoy, just like Le Zhengyu's understanding of him, he hates the royal family of Fengguo, how can he go back voluntarily!
If it's not voluntary, it's... Someone forced him! And with Feng Xie's strength, he can't bargain in the hands of the other party at present, so it makes sense, Le Zhengyu thought secretly in his heart.
