Chapter 242: Ignorance Has a Price
The saint got up and looked out of the temple, and saw a man lying on a board, covered with a white cloth, from head to toe.
"The person outside the palace is the one who stabbed King Jing?"
Liang Yan nodded, "Exactly." ”
The Holy Emperor nodded his head.
The eunuchs around the saint stepped forward to check, and the palace people lifted some of the white cloth.
The eunuch glanced at it, his face showed some hesitation, and a palace man stepped forward and whispered in his ear for a while, and the eunuch immediately nodded, his expression changed slightly.
He nodded and asked for the body to be carried away, then turned back to his body.
"Holy ......"
The eunuch stopped talking.
Liang Yan lowered her head, and her choked voice was slightly louder.
The saint's gaze fell on her, and the pity in his heart couldn't help but expand.
"Say."
"Back to the saint, that person is the dancing girl given to King Jing in the palace." After the eunuch finished speaking, he immediately looked at the saint's face carefully.
Sure enough, I saw that the saint's face changed slightly.
Sheng's gaze at Liang Yan also changed from pity to scrutiny.
Liang Yan raised her head and looked at the saint with a pair of teary eyes, "It was the orchid given to King Jing's Mansion by the palace, but the concubine heard that this orchid was presented to the saint by the prince, and she was inadvertently picked by the queen and sent to King Jing's mansion." The concubine didn't know why she wanted to assassinate King Jing, the concubine thought that she had never treated her badly, and as soon as she entered the mansion, the concubine let her serve by her side......"
Prince, Queen?
Liang Yan worked hard for a while, and then dragged two more people in.
King Jing's injury, it seems, but it involves a lot?
"Come on, the imperial doctor of Chuantai Hospital will visit King Jing in King Jing's Mansion!" The saint commanded, and looked at Liang Yan and said, "Princess Jing doesn't have to worry, all the medicinal herbs in the palace will be taken by King Jing, and he will definitely get better." ”
Seemingly concerned about visiting, who doesn't know her medical skills? Let the Imperial Doctor go, just to make sure that King Jing's injury is true and whether it is as serious as she said.
Fortunately, the rouge gouache she used to pretend to be sick last time didn't run out, and she told Li Xuanyi about the method of taking acupoints to change the pulse, and the wound was real, so were you afraid that they would go to see it?
The palace people took the order and left, and the saint sat upright.
Liang Yan only bowed her head and wept, silent.
She didn't cry out loud at this time, lest she annoy the saint after crying for a long time, and the gain outweighed the loss.
After waiting for an hour or two, Liang Yan was tired from kneeling, so she leaned on Bai Wei to rest.
Fortunately, the Holy One took pity on her as a pregnant woman, so she didn't have to sit upright all the time, otherwise these two hours would really be enough for her.
Wait for the imperial doctor to return to the palace to resume his life.
Xiang Sheng showed that King Jing was injured, and his rhetoric was the same as that of Liang Yan, and King Jing's heart was damaged and his injuries were quite serious.
Liang Yan cried again at this time, with the heavy and regretful look of the imperial doctor, she looked a little sad and bleak.
The saint frowned and asked the eunuch on the side: "That dancing girl is really sent to the palace by the prince?" ”
The eunuch bowed down and should be.
"Passing on the prince." The saint's tone was slightly cold.
The crown prince was rumored to be in the Zichen Palace.
When he saw Liang Yan who was kneeling beside him and weeping silently, he was slightly stunned.
recalled whether he had provoked King Jing's Mansion during this time, and his expression was a little inexplicable.
"Father, well!" The prince saluted.
The saint did not tell him to be flat, and asked directly: "Who are the orchids that the prince offered on the Shangyuan Festival before?" ”
The prince was stunned, "It's the dancing girl Le Ji who was carefully selected and cultivated by the sons and daughters for their father." It is carefully purchased from the Western Regions or from the merchants who come and go to trade. ”
"Picky?" The saint's voice was slightly sarcastic.
The prince frowned, feeling that something seemed to be wrong, and did not dare to speak rashly.
"Bring it up and let the prince see it!" The saint commanded the eunuch with a sideways face.
The eunuch took the order and left, and after a short time, Ashina's body was carried up again.
The eunuch lifted the white cloth for the prince and let him take a look.
The prince frowned, he had an impression of this dancing girl, this dancing girl's eyes were exceptionally beautiful, and the dancing posture was enchanting, he almost left this dancing girl by his side. If it weren't for the crown princess to say, if he found out that the dancing girl he offered was not as good as what he left for him, he would definitely be dissatisfied. He will not bear to cut his love and sacrifice this dancing girl.
"Father, the emperor ......," the prince's voice was full of puzzlement.
Liang Yan suddenly turned her head, with a pair of red eyes from crying, and looked straight at the prince, "His Royal Highness the Prince, King Jing treats you like a brother-in-law, why does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince want to harm him so much?" ”
The crown prince frowned, "What nonsense are you talking about?" ”
Sheng Shangqing coughed, "Prince, this dancing girl was given to King Jing's Mansion as a maidservant, but last night when she was serving King Jing, she assassinated King Jing, so that King Jing was seriously injured and bedridden. Do you know what's going on? ”
The prince was stunned for a moment, reacted, and immediately knelt on the ground, "Father Mingjian, the son doesn't know about this matter at all!" ”
The saint lowered his eyes and looked at the prince lightly, so that people could not see the emotion in his eyes.
"Father! Erchen has no grievances with King Jing, and treats him as his own brother, how can he harm him? Father Emperor Mingjian! When the prince finished speaking, he bowed his head.
The saint smiled, half-jokingly: "I also think that there must be a misunderstanding in this matter!" ”
Before the prince could nod his head in agreement, he heard the second half of the saint's words.
"This dancing girl was sent to me by you, if the person you want to assassinate is King Jing, isn't this going around in circles?"
When the prince heard this, he was cold, and he couldn't say a word in surprise and nervousness.
Liang Yan lowered her eyes, knelt on the side, and didn't say much.
"Father, my son is willing to investigate this matter in detail, and he will definitely give King Jing and Princess Jing an explanation! Don't let King Jing get injured in vain! The prince kowtowed.
The saint glanced at him.
The atmosphere in the hall was heavy and tense.
It is a person with a calm face, but he is afraid that there is also a string in his heart.
Suddenly, I heard the voice of the saint say, "It's okay, I'll let you go and check." ”
The crown prince breathed a sigh of relief, "Father Xie trusts." ”
Liang Yan wiped her tears and didn't say much.
It is impossible to make the prince easily shaken, but there is already a gap between their father and son, and if they want to make this gap bigger and bigger, it is possible to try.
Liang Yan retired and walked out of the Zichen Palace.
And when the prince was not long, he also came out of it.
Liang Yan had a big belly, was supported by Bai Wei, and walked a little slowly.
But the prince's footsteps were like the wind, and in a short time he came to her and followed her slowly.
Liang Yan squatted down and saluted, "Your Highness is well." ”
The crown prince raised his hand and swept his gaze around her, "There are some things in this palace that I don't understand, and I want to ask Princess Jing to solve my doubts for this king." ”
Liang Yan bowed his head.
"What makes Princess Jing feel that King Ning has a chance of winning, and she does not hesitate to take the risk of going against the palace and taking refuge in King Ning?"
"The concubine doesn't understand what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said?" Liang Yan replied with her head down.
The prince smiled, "It doesn't matter if you don't understand, people always have to pay for their ignorance!" ”
With that, the prince walked past her and walked forward.
Liang Yan squatted on the spot and saluted, and sent the prince away.
When the prince was far away, Bai Wei nervously asked in her ear: "Master, have we offended the prince by doing this?" ”
Liang Yan looked at the direction the prince left, and shook her head for a long time, "It's not today's business to offend him. ”
The prince went to check the origin of Ashina.
Now I check it again, but where can I find it out so easily.
One day after another day he couldn't find out the reason for this matter, the prince felt uncomfortable in his heart one day, and even felt that the eyes of the saint looking at him were full of meaning.
Especially recently, the saint has praised King Ning a lot, which makes the prince feel like a thorn in his heart, and the pain is difficult to suppress when he touches it.
"My father is more and more dissatisfied with this palace! What should we do now? In the East Palace, the prince sat cross-legged on the couch, his face full of dissatisfaction.
Several of the prince's henchmen knelt down and sat down, their eyes down and silent.
The prince put the tea bowl on top of the table, "Why have you all become dumb?" Isn't it quite possible to talk about it on weekdays? ”
The confidant secretly gave a look, but no one dared to speak.
The prince looked at the people below him dissatisfied, "Didn't you all say that you would share your worries for the palace?" Now the time has come for this palace to need you to share your worries! ”
The others didn't move, but Gu Yan saluted first: "His Royal Highness the Prince, the minister has something to say." ”
The crown prince nodded, "Gu Lang said it's okay. ”
Gu Yan didn't hurry to speak, but looked at the other ministers and smiled silently.
Seeing him doing something, the prince waved his hand and said, "Gu Lang don't worry, everyone here is a person who the palace relies on." ”
Gu Yan bowed, bowed and said: "The current prince is still Your Highness, as long as the Holy Lord does not change the edict, the last person to be crowned with the Great Treasure can only be His Highness." Even if King Ning has bad intentions, he is not orthodox! ”
The prince was about to reprimand Gu Yan with a cold face, what is the difference between what he said and what he didn't say?
But suddenly after thinking about it, his expression was slightly stunned.
The other people looked puzzled or puzzled, but they were silent for a moment.
The prince was stunned for a moment and said, "Go back first." ”
The prince's adviser retired, and Gu Yan also retreated.
The prince looked at him and said, "Gu Lang wait a moment." ”
Gu Yan stood still, and when everyone else retreated, he took a few steps forward and came to the prince.
"Your Highness!"
The crown prince nodded, "Gu Lang's meaning, this palace understands." It's just that...... This still needs to be planned. ”
Gu Yan said: "My father has some friendship with the commander of the forbidden army, I heard that the beginning of next month is the birthday of Gao Tang, the commander of the forbidden army, and the minister has prepared a congratulatory gift for His Royal Highness, I don't know what His Highness thinks?" ”
Hearing this, the prince looked at Gu Yan in surprise, "Gu Lang is really dedicated to the palace, and even such things have already been planned for the palace?" ”
Gu Yan arched his hand: "The princess often said in the ear of the minister, His Royal Highness has taken a lot of care for her, and His Royal Highness has more knowledge and grace in the minister, and the minister remembers it in his heart and does not dare to forget it." ”
The prince nodded with a smile.
"When this palace becomes a great treasure, it is bound to rely on Gu Lang!"
Gu Yan bowed.
The prince nodded and smiled.
"When the gift list for the birthday of the commander of the forbidden army is ready, please ask the prince to see it in person." Gu Yan arched his hand and said.
The crown prince nodded, looking at Gu Yan's gaze with great satisfaction.
