After Wang An, who was in his forties and had no beard, came in, he respectfully saluted Princess Xianning, "The old slave has something to tell the princess......"

looked at Sun Qingyang a few times, and did not continue.

This Wang An is the old man in front of Zhu Di, the Yongle Emperor, at the age of twelve or thirteen, when Zhu Di was still the King of Yan, he followed along, and in the battle of "Jingyan", he was born and died, and fought bloodily. On weekdays, even if the public waits to see him, he has to be polite for three points.

is the prince and the princess Xianning's brothers and sisters, and they have watched him walk in front of the palace since he was a child, and Emperor Yongle is constantly gracious, compared to those concubines who come and go to be favored and fall out of favor, Wang Anke can be regarded as graceful, and they are more familiar.

Princess Xianning closed her eyes and settled on her mind before she spoke, "The prince is exempt from courtesy." If what you're saying has to do with them, don't hesitate. I think they should know the truth, too. ”

The prince stood up slowly, and said in an old voice: "The old slave and He Tongzhi are old acquaintances, so Jiayu is like a granddaughter in my eyes." ”

He Jiayu on the side showed admiration, Wang An treats her on weekdays, and it hurts three points more than her grandfather, if not, she will not agree to He Jiayu to find someone to give Sun Qingyang a little trouble, after all, in this palace, if he speaks, the little eunuchs in each palace will give some face.

So after the incident, Wang An said that he didn't know either, and would give her an explanation after verifying, He Jiayu must believe it, so no matter how Princess Xianning asked, she refused to say Wang An's name, for fear of causing misunderstanding and causing trouble to Wang An.

No, for his own sake, he actually came forward in person, and did not hesitate to make the princess misunderstand the collusion between the internal officials and the foreign ministers.

Thinking of this, He Jiayu looked at Wang An's eyes with even more admiration.

"So, that day Jiayu came to me and said that the princess's new companion made her very unhappy, and when she wanted to vent her anger, the old slave answered. First, I wanted to give Miss Sun a warning to be cautious in my words and deeds in this palace, and secondly, I also wanted to make Jiayu angry, so that she would not find other troubles for Miss Sun. ”

Princess Xianning nodded, "What my father-in-law said is right, I think your subordinates are also measured, but why did things evolve into an uncontrollable situation later?" ”

"The old slave also found out afterwards that he had fallen victim to someone else's plan to kill two birds with one stone, and someone actually wanted to borrow my hand to find some trouble for the prince's mansion, so he has been investigating and secretly visiting these days."

If the emperor allowed Sun Qingyang, who was fostered under the knees of the crown princess, to have an accident in the East Palace only three days ago, even if it was found out that it had nothing to do with the people in the prince's mansion, the prince would inevitably fall into the crime of lax governance of the house.

The emperor's eldest grandson, Zhu Zhanji, was assassinated and injured on the way back to Beijing from the north, and the princess Xianning visited the palace in the name of seeing Sun Qingyang, and the emperor's eldest grandson was raised in front of Queen Xu since he was a child, and Princess Xianning was close in age, so the two said that they were aunts and nephews, but they were closer than ordinary sisters and brothers.

Princess Xianning knew the stakes, and the reason why she was unwilling to speak lightly when she saw that Wang An was involved was also this, she was worried that there were other people behind Wang An, in order to repair the plank road in the open, secretly Chen Cang, and take advantage of Sun Qingyang's murder to pull the prince off the horse.

The emperor is in his prime, the prince is already old, and it is most likely to arouse the suspicion of father and son.

After all, the emperor and the crown prince, first the monarch and the minister, then the father and son.

"Have you found out who it is?" Princess Xianning's tone was determined, in her mind, Wang An, who had intertwined forces in the palace and had the position of supervising the army, even if he had fallen for someone else's plan because of his carelessness before, as long as he had the heart to investigate afterwards, it was impossible not to find out the truth.

"I don't know." Wang Gonggong sighed slightly, "Every time the old slave finds a clue, someone will rush in front of the old slave, and the insider will be killed or missing. ”

Among the people present, those who knew Wang An's status in the palace were shocked when they heard him say this, and the people who could make the prince helpless were by no means idle.

Sun Qingyang glanced at the prince and said, "Qingyang wants to ask the prince to tell us, where is the last clue?" ”

Hearing Sun Qingyang's question, the princess showed guilt on his face, "After Jiayu told me to vent my anger, I entrusted the prince's mansion to take care of the royal things, which can be regarded as my apprentice's Xiao Chenzi to help with this, I originally thought that I would put down some croton, so that you could pull your stomach for two days and it would be revealed, but I never thought that there would be such a big mistake in the back, so I went to him to ask, he said that he entrusted Sister-in-law Xiao in the big kitchen of the East Palace to put something in the dinner that day, because I knew that there was no dinner in Linggu Temple, Miss Sun was growing her body, and she would be hungry, At this time, someone will bring you the extra dinner, and you will definitely eat it. ”

Even they were hungry that night, Sun Qingyang looked at Wang Gonggong seriously, and smiled faintly, "This calculation, did the father-in-law think of it, or did the eunuch named Xiao Chenzi think of it?" ”
