Only Nie Xingji understood that Wei Nong's words were protecting the eldest princess. After all, King Yan fainted at the eldest princess's birthday banquet, and the eldest princess could not escape the blame. At this moment, if she has another conflict with Queen Helian, it is difficult to guarantee that the conflict will not intensify, and the queen will take the opportunity to deal with it.

Moreover, the meaning of the eldest princess's words is that she is wary of the prince everywhere, towards herself.

Nie Xingji looked at Wei Nong, and saw that her hands were hidden in her sleeves and naturally drooped, pulling the other party's sleeves from behind the eldest princess, and the intention of dissuasion was obvious.

I know the times very well! Nie Xingji thought like this in his heart, and heard someone call him in his ears, and it was Queen Helian who reiterated the order: "Jing Hou, please ask the eldest princess and the Hou to move to the side hall, and no one else is allowed to leave the banquet hall, and wait for the prince to come back and deal with it!" ”

Queen Helian looked at Nie Xingji, and her eyes were even more fierce than Fang Cai: "Also, immediately dispatch the Praetorian Guards to take over the Eldest Princess's Mansion, whoever dares to resist will be killed!" ”

For some reason, the queen's calm and intimidation in the face of danger actually made Nie Xingji feel as if she had rehearsed this scene thousands of times.

He saw a faint glance at it, and the gaze was clear and clear, but it hid a different kind of deep meaning, like an anonymous gem condensed in the crystal amber, which made him want to guess but couldn't guess.

He pondered for a moment, and finally replied to Queen Helian: "The son has the order." After that, he turned to the eldest princess and the marquis, and stretched out his hand to ask: "Auntie, uncle, nephew is offended." ”

The eldest princess knew that he was protecting herself, but she still didn't give him a good face, and walked to the side hall with her sleeves brushed up. Definition Hou followed.

As soon as everyone was settled in this compartment, the prince of the compartment also returned with the imperial doctor and a large number of Praetorian Guards. The forbidden army quickly surrounded the eldest princess's mansion inside and outside, waiting for the prince to show him further.

The banquet hall was silent, and the clan relatives didn't even dare to breathe, staring at the several imperial doctors who were diagnosing King Yan's pulse.

After a while, I heard the imperial doctors reply: "The doctor of the princess's mansion has made a wrong diagnosis, and the king is not a stroke, nor is it poisoning, but a palpitation." If you are sick, you can rest for a few days, and the king will be fine. ”

Is it okay? Nie Xingji's doubts came to mind.

The clan relatives were all relieved. Since King Yan is an old problem, it has nothing to do with today's birthday banquet.

Queen Helian was also very satisfied with this result, and said: "In this case, the palace and the crown prince will send the king back to the palace to recuperate first." Jinghou stayed, but don't forget to appease the eldest princess. ”

The crown prince Nie Xingyi also added: "Don't go out of the city recently, after your father wakes up, he may be summoned at any time." ”

Everyone said yes, watched the palace people carry the king out of the banquet room, and watched the queen, the crown prince, and the princess leave. Footsteps rang out from outside, and the Praetorian Guards were evacuating in an orderly manner. After tossing like this for half an hour, a large number of people in the palace finally walked cleanly.

The clan relatives experienced a false alarm, and they all wanted to leave as soon as possible, but because of the face of the eldest princess and his wife, they comforted her a few words before saying goodbye one by one. Only Nie Xingji stayed behind to clean up the mess.

It was only at this time that the eldest princess and the Marquis came out of the side hall. At this time, the main hall was already in a mess, with crooked tables and chairs, full of cold scraps, and deep and shallow footprints on the white jade floor tiles......

The eldest princess stood in the banquet room that she had carefully arranged, raised her hand and peeled off the bracelet on her left wrist, and looked carefully at the lamplight. This flying star moon bracelet hollow overflowing, golden shine, the inner ring is the definition of Hou personally carved the small seal "Ying" word. It's also her name.

There's nothing wrong with that.

"Auntie, it's too late today, you can rest first." Nie Xingji persuaded in a timely manner: "There is a lot of mystery in this matter, and it is not possible to find out in a moment. It's a long time coming. ”

The eldest princess looked back at him hatefully: "It's really a hot and cold world. Two hours ago, I was full of friends; After two hours, they all avoided it, but you were the only one who would stay. ”

"Our aunt and nephew are separated, so we are naturally closer." Nie Xingji explained euphemistically for others.

"If you want to talk about closeness, Helian Biyue is my in-law, and the prince is my son-in-law, isn't it close enough?" The eldest princess still stared at him and asked.

Nie Xingji remembered the relationship between Weinong and the crown prince, and his heart sank, and he was silent.

Seeing him look like this, the eldest princess deliberately asked, "You also saw it just now, Helian Biyue suddenly began to target me, and her words pointed out that I was plotting to kill the king. Don't you think it's weird? ”

This is probably what everyone present felt strange.

Originally, when King Helian went to the banquet later, he also brought a cart of congratulatory gifts, and when he entered the palace, he was also very enthusiastic with the eldest princess. But why did she suddenly turn her face at the birthday banquet? Even if she was worried that King Yan had three longs and two shorts, she shouldn't directly target the eldest princess, after all, it was her in-laws, and the matter hadn't been figured out yet.

Nie Xingji did not echo the eldest princess's doubts, but calmly changed the topic: "The most important thing now is my father's illness. The nephew always felt that his father was not like an old problem. ”

The eldest princess recalled the scene just now, and gradually calmed down, put the bracelet back on her wrist, and said slowly: "That's right. When the king fainted, he did not cover his heart, and it did not look like a palpitation at all. ”

She asked herself if she had seen the wind and waves, and she was also a calm person. But today, she really couldn't calm down, and always felt that she was involved in some unknown conspiracy, a little scared, a little worried.

"Princess, go to sleep! Since it's a false alarm, don't think about it, your body matters. Definition: Hou Duhao had been silent until this moment, and he didn't speak up to be relieved.

"Yes, my uncle is right. Intrigues and tricks leak out one day, and no one can hide it for a lifetime. Nie Xingji indifferently agreed.

Hou Wenyan glanced at him. I saw that the young Jinghou was slowly wearing a light fur, his voice was not rippling, and his pupils were like a bottomless abyss, which made people guess the meaning.

The eldest princess was also attracted by his calm and determined temperament, and remembered the conversation between King Yan and herself a few hours ago, and couldn't help but sigh. If King Yan can recover, it will be fine, but if he can't afford to get sick...... Isn't the storage position of Nie Xingji in vain?

"It's a pity...... the eldest princess wanted to say something, but she was afraid of causing a storm in vain, so she had to reluctantly press the thought in her heart.

Seeing this, Nie Xingji didn't ask much, and personally escorted the couple back to the house to sleep before leaving the eldest princess's mansion.

That night, the lights of Longqian Palace were not extinguished all night. Queen Helian stayed by King Yan's side, waiting for further treatment by the imperial doctor.

In the East Palace, Nie Xingyi hurriedly came back to change his clothes, and brought a few important seals, preparing to go to the Longqian Palace.

Wei Nong stopped him in the dormitory at the right time: "How is the king's condition?" Is it a stroke? Or heart palpitations? ”

Nie Xingyi was a little impatient, looking at her concerned expression, he had to reply: "Naturally, it's heart palpitations." Don't stop me, I have to go to the Longqian Palace. ”

Wei Nong stood still, his eyes swept over the brocade box in his hand, and asked, "Since you are visiting the sick, what are you doing with these seals?" ”

Nie Xingyi was stopped by her, his eyebrows furrowed, his lips pursed and he was silent, and there was an indescribable resistance on his handsome face shrouded in the night.

He was resisting telling her the truth. The two looked at each other for a moment, but in the end, it was Nie Xingyi who took the initiative to ease his expression, but he didn't answer the question: "Father is an old problem, just lie down for a few days." You can rest and don't worry. With that, he turned to leave.

Wei Nong blocked his way again: "How come I have never heard that the king has heart palpitations?" ”

Nie Xingyi's gaze suddenly became sharp, and he looked at her vigilantly: "What are you thinking?" Get out of the way, I'm going to visit my father. ”

"I'll go too." Wei Nong didn't give an inch, and instantly changed his mind: "As the crown princess, I should be filial piety in front of the emperor and serve the decoction." ”

"Qingcheng," Nie Xingyi seemed a little annoyed and looked uncertain, "I can guarantee that you have always been my wife." ”

Wei Nong smiled: "I'm concerned about the king's condition, what do you say about this?" ”

Her words finally annoyed Nie Xingyi, who reprimanded in a low voice: "I don't know what to do!" Then he pushed her away with one hand and ordered the guards of the East Palace: "Look forward to the crown princess!" Don't let her step out of the Purple Palace! ”

"Nie Xingyi!" Wei Nong called his name, seeing that he had already stepped out of the palace gate, and he was stopped by the guards, he had to remind him behind him: "Ming's case, don't forget!" ”

Nie Xingyi paused, but did not look back, but sped up his steps to leave. He felt a burning gaze staring at him from behind him, and it made him feel like a scar.

It wasn't until he walked out of the East Palace that he took a deep breath. In fact, he didn't know why he was weak-hearted, and his father's illness was not caused by him, he was going to serve the sick! Thinking like this, he felt better, and couldn't help but straighten his clothes and hurry away.

In the main hall of Longqian Palace, the palace people came in and out with panicked faces, but Queen Helian was unusually calm outside the dormitory, as if waiting for someone.

"Queen Mother!" Seeing this, Nie Xingyi hurriedly approached and asked, "Father, what ...... he?"

"It's a stroke." Queen Helian didn't wait for him to finish speaking, her expression was solemn, but she was a little bright: "Yi'er, your father is probably useless, this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, we can't miss it!" ”

"Scrapped?" Nie Xingyi was surprised.

Queen Helian made a silent gesture to him and pulled him into the corner: "I have ordered someone to go to the holy study to find the national seal...... You have been serving in the Longqian Palace for a few days, and after three or five days, it is logical that you will 'be ordered to supervise the country'. ”

"Ordered to supervise the country......" Nie Xingyi muttered again, shocked in his heart: "Queen Mother!" I am the crown prince, and the name of the prison country is right, so why should I forge a holy decree? ”

"Without the Holy Decree, would Nie Xingji be willing? Will the courtiers be free of criticism? Queen Helian looked at the entrance of the palace from afar: "Fortunately, when your father ascended the throne, several brothers were killed and exiled, otherwise it would be enough for us to suffer." ”

Nie Xingyi sighed slightly and did not refute.

Queen Helian sneered again: "The most important thing now is to conceal the king's illness. You send someone to watch over the Jinghou Mansion, don't allow Nie Xingji to enter the palace to visit the sick, and don't let him escape back to Fangzhou. She made a killing gesture and said in a cruel tone: "When the dust settles on your prison affairs, you will end him up, and there will be no future trouble!" ”
