Chapter 48: The Secret of the Scar

Gu Fengjin moved his lips, and just as he was about to speak, he heard a commotion in the courtyard.

He protected Su Xinyan behind him and stood in front of him with one step up.

At this time, a man dressed as a eunuch led a group of officers and soldiers in, only to see that he still had a scroll of holy decrees in his hand.

And behind them, Zhang Yunhao chased in with an anxious face, and after seeing Su Xinyan, he hurriedly lowered his head, "Your Highness, the former head of the imperial palace, Gonggong Zhou, said that the emperor issued a holy decree and specified ......."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the wave of the father-in-law Zhou.

Gonggong Zhou completely ignored the mess around him, and only after saluting His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did he say coldly: "The criminal minister Su Xinyan knelt down to accept the order. ”

Su Xinyan was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect this holy decree to come to her, she glanced at the prince, who was also full of doubts, so she could only come out from behind, and slowly bent down and knelt down.

"Minister, take the order."

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor said. The criminal minister Su Xinyan committed the following crimes, deceived the saints, disguised as men and infiltrated the prince's mansion to wait for an opportunity to assassinate, concealed his identity and infiltrated the palace, and seized official positions by unscrupulous means, all kinds of behaviors were extremely bad. For the time being, I will take Er to the Zongren Mansion and wait for a retrial at a later date! ”

After the imperial manager finished speaking, he glanced at Su Xinyan in a strange manner, "Master Su, take the order!" ”

Su Xinyan was a little stunned by the series of charges in the holy decree, and was stunned on the spot for a while.

In the end, it was Gu Fengjin behind her who took the holy decree for her, "Father-in-law Zhou, this holy decree ......"

Seeing this, Gonggong Zhou hurriedly waved his hand and said with an embarrassed face, "Your Highness, the old slave knows what you want to say, but this is the emperor's meaning, and no one can change it." ”

Gu Fengjin pondered for a long time and took two steps to the side.

Seeing this, Zhou's father-in-law hurriedly leaned over and whispered,

"Your Highness, the old slave only knows that the emperor's news came suddenly, and even this holy decree was just prepared and sent by the old slave.

If it is correct as expected, someone should have deliberately framed Father-in-law Su, and the purpose behind this is also obvious, it must be aimed at you.

Also, your whereabouts in the past few days have already been leaked, if it weren't for General Pei in the court, I don't know how much you would have to do if you left Beijing without permission? ”

When he said this, he kindly reminded.

"The old slave has carefully observed before coming, and the emperor is in a very bad mood. Therefore, the old slave advised His Royal Highness that it is better not to have a hard fight with the emperor now, and it is better to put Na Su's father-in-law in prison and think about it in the long run. ”

How could His Royal Highness the Crown Prince not know what he said, but now that Su Xinyan's heart is unstable, if he enters the building at this time, won't he even have a chance to recover?

When he was hesitating, Su Xinyan suddenly said, "Your Highness doesn't have to be embarrassed, I'll just go." ”

When the imperial manager heard this, he hurriedly smiled and said, "It's still the general knowledge of Duke Su and he knows how to solve problems for His Highness." ”

After he finished speaking, he saluted the prince, asked Su Xinyan to be tied up, and turned around and led her out of the room.

Seeing Su Xinyan being taken away, Zhang Yunhao followed to the door a little anxiously. After looking out a few times, he could only walk back in frustration.

"Your Highness, is this crime big or small?"

Gu Fengjin shook his head, and while reaching out to let the imperial doctor bandage his wounds, he said, "Pass the order, let the people below travel lightly, and we will return to the capital tonight." ”

This time it happened suddenly, he really didn't prepare at all, and now he can only make a decision after meeting the Holy Lord in person.

The group did not waste the slightest time, and finally returned to the capital before Su Xinyan was imprisoned.

As soon as Gu Fengjin walked to the gate of the palace, General Pei, who had been waiting for a long time, handed him the clothes that had been prepared.

"Your Royal Highness, the emperor has not been to the court today, and the study is also forbidden to let others in and out, I don't know if it is aimed at Gonggong Su."

Gu Fengjin took off his bloodstained coat, changed into clean clothes, covered the injured part, and said as he walked,

"Let's go find the Imperial Grandmother first."

After he finished speaking, he went straight to the palace where the Queen Mother lived.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked to the gate of the palace, he was blocked by the guards outside the door.

Seeing this, General Xiao Pei immediately drew his sword.

"Who gave you the courage to intercept His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

The guard hurriedly knelt down and said: "The queen mother ordered that she will not see you today, she asked the servants to pass on the message to you, endure the calm for a while, and don't hurt the royal harmony because of a person who is not enough to worry about." ”

Gu Fengjin hooked her lips, didn't look at the guards guarding the door, and raised her feet to walk in.

The guards wanted to stop again, but they were pushed away by General Pei.

"You're really dead!"

"Servants are also duty."

After he finished speaking, seeing General Xiao Pei looking at him coldly with his arms crossed, he could only kneel down and apologize to His Royal Highness the Prince, who had gone away.

The crown prince went all the way into the queen mother's bedchamber.

At this time, the queen mother was lying on her side on the soft couch, her eyes closed, and she let the little maid knead her shoulders for herself.

Gu Fengjin came in and waved at the little maid, and she stood where she had stood before.

The strength of his massage was very moderate, and the Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction, and said without opening her eyes,

"It's still my good grandson who has a heart, and he actually went to learn this massage craft specifically for the mourning family, and sure enough, except for you, there is no one in this palace who can make my old man so happy."

Gu Fengjin smiled and said softly, "The imperial grandmother is serious, there are many talents in the palace, and my trick is also ugly in front of you." ”

"Oh? It seems that you are very quiet in your heart! The Empress Dowager slowly opened her eyes, but there was no smile in her eyes, "Didn't the previous guards convey the will of the mourning family?" ”

Seeing this, Gu Fengjin knew that this matter could not be good, so he quickly turned around and knelt in front of her and said.

"Imperial grandmother, grandson only begs you this time!"

The Queen Mother shook her head, "It's not that I won't help you, but this time you stabbed Lou Zi too much!" actually recommended a woman to be an official of the court, and she was still an unknown and lowly woman. ”

She said with some hatred, "If that woman really has a special meaning to you, it is not impossible for you to include her in the prince's mansion, how can you let her come to the court as an official!"

Your father was furious because of this, and now don't say it's you, even I have to be careful when I see him. ”

Gu Fengjin's face turned a little pale, and she knelt on the ground and still insisted: "The imperial grandmother can ask other ministers, although she is a woman, she has the talent to deal with big things, and I just don't want her talent to be buried, so I recommended her to the court." ”

The Queen Mother patted the table lightly, looked at him and said, "Confused, you wouldn't have done such impulsive things before, but now what's wrong?" Could it be that you are still fascinated by that vixen? ”

As soon as she finished speaking, she found that there was a trace of blood oozing out of Gu Fengjin's shoulder, and she couldn't care about maintaining her previous majesty, she quickly stood up, ripped off Gu Fengjin's shirt, and almost gasped in shock when she saw the deep wound that could be seen in the bones.

"How did you get this?"

"The small wound is fine, it's just that the car and horses are tired when I came, and the injury is more serious."

The queen mother pulled him up in distress, helped him to the warm couch, looked at his pale face, and sighed deeply.

"Why are you so suffering, don't you know that the pain is in you, and the pain is here in the mourning family? Among these many children, the mourning family only values you alone, how can you live up to the high expectations of the mourning family? ”

Gu Fengjin lowered his head and said in a deep voice, "I'm sorry, Imperial Grandmother." ”

The Queen Mother was silent for a long time, and then she rubbed her forehead with a headache, "That's it, since this is your wish, the mourning family will help you meet it." ”

After she finished speaking, she sent someone to the study to summon the emperor over.

Although the emperor is middle-aged, he is well maintained, and now he only has a few strands of gray hair on his sideburns, and he can still vaguely see the demeanor of his youth on his face.

He walked in with a pleasant face, but after seeing Gu Fengjin sitting in the seat, he immediately sank his face again. It seems that the pleasant face just now is a flash in the pan.

The emperor snorted coldly, deliberately ignored His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, walked straight to the Queen Mother, and saluted before saying, "Queen Mother, you are not in good health, so don't worry too much about the affairs of their juniors." ”

The Empress Dowager shook her head, "This is the first time my good grandson has begged his imperial grandmother, how can the mourning family not agree?"

No matter how much dissatisfaction you had with my good grandson before, no matter how much you scolded, the mourning family is old, and you can't do enough to speak, so I don't care about you.

But now that he is injured, if that woman has not done anything hurtful and unforgivable, you can reduce her to civilians and let her go. ”

The emperor was about to refute, but when he saw Gu Fengjin sitting on the stool obediently, looking very innocent, the anger in his heart couldn't help but rise.

He took a deep breath and slowly pressed it down before saying, "Mother said that I was too impulsive before. However, after all, that person has been put in prison, and if you want to turn a big thing into a small thing, it may be inappropriate to make an order like this, and it still needs to be discussed.

Why don't I go back with the emperor and discuss it now, how to solve this matter satisfactorily? ”

After hearing this, the queen mother nodded with satisfaction, "The emperor's idea is good, and the mourning family is waiting for your good news." ”

The emperor stood up, saluted the empress dowager with a kind smile, and then turned to Gu Fengjin and sneered, "Come to my study." ”

Gu Fengjin's body trembled slightly, but then stood up without hesitation.

After thanking the queen mother, Gu Fengjin clenched his fists and followed the emperor to the imperial study.

As soon as the door of the imperial study was closed, the emperor angrily said to Gu Fengjin: "Evil barrier, kneel!" ”

Gu Fengjin's face was indifferent, and he knelt on the ground without any hesitation.

"Bring the whip!"

The emperor snatched the whip from the tray of the chief eunuch next to him and whipped it fiercely at Gu Fengjin's back.

"You are really like your lowly mother, no matter how much honor you give, you try your best to disobey me!"

Gu Fengjin felt that the smell of blood in his mouth was gradually getting stronger, but he still gritted his teeth and did not make a sound.

The emperor said through gritted teeth as he whipped his whip fiercely.

"Didn't you want to save that woman? Very well, I promise you, if you can survive these 50 lashes, I will let her go! ”

Gu Fengjin's back was straight, his fists were clenched, and even though his internal organs were screaming in pain, he still didn't say anything.

After a while, the emperor threw the whip to the father-in-law next to him a little out of breath, "There are still 20 whips, give me a beating!" A solid hit! ”

The chief eunuch looked at His Royal Highness the Prince, who was kneeling on the ground, and took the whip with trembling fingers.

"Holy Lord, His Highness already has a new injury on his body, if he really gets enough of these 50 whips, wouldn't he have lost half his life, it might as well be ......"

The emperor rolled his eyes coldly, "It's okay not to beat him, so can I hit you with the rest of the whip?" ”

The chief eunuch sighed secretly, walked up to Gu Fengjin and said in a deep voice, "Your Highness, I'm sorry. ”

When he finished speaking, he raised his right hand high and swung the whip down heavily.
