Chapter 387: A serious illness has not been cured
"Ah, the king knows. Go back and tell your father, so that your father can rest assured that this king will do it well. King Chen said.
I thought, no wonder Li Zhonggui is so ignorant today. Seeing that he didn't mean to keep him much, he kept quietly, and did what the beautiful maid should do, just waiting for an opportunity to say this.
Fortunately, he had expected such an order from his father, and did not send the craftsman back. Because of the expectation in his heart, he was not surprised at all to hear Li Zhonggui say this.
After Li Zhonggui left, King Chen called Zhuo Jiu over and gave a brief order.
Just a few hasty words have already pronounced the end of a person's life.
King Chen asked Zhuo Jiu to make it neater, don't make a lot of noise. It's just a matter of putting something on the craftsman's food, letting him eat it, and killing him neatly.
Zhuo Jiu replied and stepped back, saying that it would be done in the evening.
Rong Yunxi felt that this matter was a little inappropriate, thought about it in his heart, thought of a more reasonable reason, and persuaded King Chen: "Father asked you to get rid of that craftsman, because he was afraid that the scandal of the prince framing Cai Sheng would be publicized. As soon as this craftsman died, no one knew about the prince's framing of Cai Sheng—although Zhang Yanshang and Qu Fucheng knew, they wouldn't say anything about it. I don't think that's good for us. ”
"My father is only putting the prince under house arrest now, not abolishing the prince. Once the Zhenguo Mansion makes some moves, it can really help the prince get out of house arrest, and we are only afraid that we will get into some trouble at that time. Keep the craftsman, at least we have a handle in our hands. If we turn over the old accounts, we can also come up with evidence, right? ”
King Chen patiently listened to Rong Yunxi's words, and he couldn't make sense at length. Naturally, I know that what Rong Yunxi said so seemingly well-reasoned was actually just to save the craftsman's life.
I can understand her painstaking efforts, but I can't follow her wishes.
"If the father and the emperor let the king get rid of the people, if the king lets them go...... Once this matter reached the ears of the prince or the Zhenguo Mansion, how could they easily let it go? Don't catch it yet, so that you can show off to your father's side? There are no impermeable walls. Now that we've walked sixty steps, we're probably going to take a hundred steps back if we're not careful. So...... Definitely not to risk on a small craftsman. "King Chen said it with certainty, and it was also very cold.
Completely ignorant of it, it was a living human life. It seems that no matter human life or anything, the road he is walking on is so insignificant.
But Rong Yunxi listened to it, but he couldn't criticize anything.
Because she knew that King Chen's cold and ruthless response was actually the most cautious and correct response.
If it's someone else...... Even if it was her, if she stood in the position of King Chen, she would do it.
has come to this point, and you must not let yourself lose everything because of the last carelessness. Then all the things that came out before were gone in vain. No one wants to let their plans for half a year go to waste.
Rong Yunxi no longer persuaded anything, but said something else: "Qingluo's 'pregnancy', what are you going to do?" If it's too late, it's not going to be easy. ”
In fact, according to Rong Yunxi's meaning, the best way is for King Chen to spoil Qingluo a few more times, so that she is really pregnant. But looking at King Chen's sick appearance, it is estimated that he did not have the intention to pamper Mei Ji. If you really go to be pampered because of her persuasion, and you catch a cold again when you turn around, and your condition worsens repeatedly, shouldn't you blame her?
So thinking about it, it is better to persuade King Chen to let him take advantage of this period of illness to hide in the mansion, and when the mansion is quiet and not disturbed, he will deal with Qingluo's matter as soon as possible.
King Chen is sick, and everything naturally has to be based on King Chen. On weekdays, if there is a pregnant concubine in the house who has a miscarriage, it is a terrible thing. But in the days when King Chen was sick and did not go to court, the concubines in King Chen's mansion had a miscarriage, which seemed insignificant, and it was estimated that the palace was just sighing, and he would not take it to heart at all. Instead, he will comfort King Chen and care about his condition.
But King Chen didn't seem to take advantage of this time to find a reason for Qingluo to have a miscarriage.
Unhurriedly, he said meaningfully: "Wait a little longer, maybe someone will be unable to sit still before this king." ”
King Chen didn't need to say it in detail, Rong Yunxi understood the meaning of King Chen's words. King Chen was referring to Bo Xinlan.
It's just that it's a bit unkind to make this test to Bo Xinlan? It's like ...... It was as if Bo Xinlan was making a mistake.
"Okay, it's almost over, stop playing", Rong Yunxi said with a smile, "Qingluo is not really pregnant, isn't it tantamount to deliberately leading Bo Xinlan to make mistakes, don't you have ulterior motives?" Too unkind. ”
"What does this have to do with whether Qingluo is really pregnant? If she is really a duty, no matter whether Qingluo is pregnant or not, he will not do anything. What is the use of the king's temptation? If she really did something, what this king saw was only her actions themselves, and they had nothing to do with the consequences. What's wrong with that? As long as she sits up straight, no one can find fault with her. How can it be that I deliberately troubled her......"
He also didn't want to embarrass a woman, this matter, when he studied it carefully, really seemed to be calculating Xinlan. It seems that a game has been set up, waiting for Xinlan to get in.
But if he didn't test it, he was really a little worried about Xinlan's personality.
He was worried that Xinlan had evil intentions and would harm Yunxi in the future.
Even if it was a temptation, Xinlan didn't do anything to Qingluo, and he couldn't be relieved because of this, let alone not tempted?
His eldest son, but not his descendant, is really a headache for him. But the matter of leaving a son to kill his mother, he can't do it if Xinlan didn't make any mistakes. It's not to that extent, not to this extent.
Rong Yunxi saw that King Chen's attitude was resolute, and in his heart, he also expected a little of his intentions. I can vaguely guess that the reason why King Chen wants to test Bo Xinlan this time is for her future stability.
But a royal woman, before the child is born, and after the birth, the temperament will be very different. Even if it is a person who does not fight or grab, once he has his own heirs, for the sake of his children, he will inevitably have to fight for something. What's more, Bo Xinlan was not such a person who did not fight or rob.
But this is a matter between women, since she sits in the seat of Princess Chen and enjoys all the benefits brought by this position, she should naturally bear some of the troubles brought by this son. This is something she should handle and face by herself, and she doesn't need King Chen's help.
King Chen didn't make trouble for her, but protected her everywhere, which made Rong Yunxi feel quite uncomfortable in her heart, feeling that she was too protected by him and was useless. It's better for him to give her some trouble once in a while and add a little fun.
After dinner, as soon as Yunshang removed the meal, Zhuo Jiu came back to his life.
"Your Highness, it is finished. The corpse is ......"
"It's a poor man in the end, don't be hasty, find a hill and give him a good burial."
"Yes. The minion will do it. Zhuo Jiu said.
I know that although His Highness ordered the killing of this craftsman, he would not really take this life for nothing. Therefore, he did not throw himself directly to the mass grave, but came back to ask His Highness for instructions.
Hearing that King Chen made such an arrangement, Rong Yunxi was also a little relieved. Felt...... Even when King Chen was cold, he still retained kindness.
Perhaps, this is the biggest difference between King Chen and the crown prince - the kindness of the heart.
In order to solve the trouble, the prince directly killed people, and there was no need to ask, he must not even have a trace of guilt. At least, King Chen can still order someone to bury the craftsman, which can be regarded as a sign of guilt in his heart.
……
In the Yilan courtyard, Bo Xinlan said that she wanted to rest earlier, and after removing dinner, she asked Mama Wu and Jing Min to retreat, leaving only Dongxue to serve and change clothes in the house.
When there were only the two masters and servants left in the house, Bo Xinlan said: "I only went twice, but the one from Xianglaiyuan went three times, I really don't know what my identity is." ”
Dongxue said in a low voice: "The slave said, don't worry about the mother." How do people not know who they are? People are now the new favorites in the palace, if it weren't for His Royal Highness's injury, for a while, I'm afraid that His Royal Highness would have to stay in Xianglai Courtyard. originally said that he would take Niangniang into the palace to participate in the palace banquet, why did he suddenly send someone over and say that Niangniang's body was uncomfortable? ”
Thinking of this, Dongxue still feels aggrieved for his master.
Niangniang was obviously decent, but Yunshang came over and said directly: "Niangniang's body is not comfortable, His Royal Highness said that Niangniang is good to be born at home, and I can't bear to work Niangniang." But I had already told the Queen Mother that I would bring a grandson into the palace to show her, and it was not easy to break my promise, so I could only take Fumei people over. I also hope that Niangniang can give birth and recuperate at home and take care of her body as soon as possible. ”
The master of her family is a discerning person, and after hearing what Yunshang said, she naturally understood what Her Highness meant. I had to follow Yunshang's meaning and really said that I was not feeling well. smiled and greeted Yunsheng, and said thank you for Your Highness's understanding and care, etc., completely knocking out your teeth and swallowing blood.
Bo Xinlan sighed and said, "The past is fine, and I won't mention it again." His Royal Highness took Qingluo to the palace banquet because he had other plans, and Qingluo itself had nothing to do with it. But after this day...... What should I do? Qingluo is also pregnant, and she is on the front and back feet with me. If the child is born and is a boy......"
It would be good if she could win a man in one fell swoop, but if she couldn't, but Qingluo gave birth to a boy, will she have a chance to turn over again in the future?
