Chapter 47: Three Princes in One Play
"This..."Ming Xiang was questioned by the crown prince Xiao Shaojun, and his face was also panicked.
After all, Ke'er has now been appointed as the crown princess, and if someone really coaxes her to lie down in the coffin and pretend to be dead, it will be a crime of murdering the future crown princess, and in serious cases, it will be connected to the nine clans.
At this time, Ming Xiang also remembered that it seemed that Bai Bingzhen had been urging to fix the coffin, and it seemed that it was intentional.
Ming Xiang looked at the Bai family on the side, there was a little more chill in his eyes, and he kept guessing in his heart, could it be that this matter was really done by the Bai family?
After all, Ke'er is not the Bai family's biological son, and it was the Bai family who proposed to send Ke'er out of the imperial capital to Yongsu City, not to mention, after coming back this time, he gave a national salute to Ke'er at the time of entry, and it is difficult to guarantee that the Bai family will not hold a grudge.
Thinking of all this before, Ming Xiang realized that he had really missed too many details, including what happened to him in Yongsu City when Ke Er first came back.
At that time, Bai and Ke'er had their own opinions, and it was difficult for Ming Xiang to make a judgment, but now it seems that what his daughter said should be right.
"Master..."Being stared at coldly by Ming Xiang, Bai Shi was also a little uncomfortable by the other party, so he also spoke out carefully, and wanted to defend himself.
But the Bai clan only ushered in a cold snort from Ming Xiang.
"Gather all the grandmothers in the house and bring them to the front yard, especially the grandmothers next to the eldest lady, none of them can be left behind. Ming Yu immediately instructed his subordinates.
And after these little servants got the order, they immediately fled from the front yard of the Ming Mansion, which was arranged as a mourning hall, and followed the instructions of the Ming Prime Minister to find the grandmothers in the Ming Mansion.
At this time, the front yard of the Ming Mansion was even more depressed, and anyone could see that Ming Xiang's face was not very good, and the attitude of the prince on the side was also very clear, and he stood aside even more coldly and watched all this.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, didn't Ke'er say that a mother-in-law coaxed her into sleeping in that coffin?"
"In this case, the old minister will call all the grandmothers in the house who meet the requirements and let Ke'er identify them, okay?" Ming said respectfully to the crown prince Xiao Shaojun.
Even if the other party does not interfere in the affairs of the court, but after all, it is the identity of the prince, if this matter is not handled to the satisfaction of the other party, I am afraid that after returning to the palace, he will report in front of the saint and the queen mother, and at that time, his situation will be even more difficult.
Ming Xiang thought of this, and also sighed, he was just a pawn of the emperor to contain Zuo Xiang, for so many years, Jiang Lang had already exhausted his talents, if it weren't for the use of containing Zuo Xiang, I am afraid he would have been demoted long ago.
Therefore, at such a critical time, it is even more impossible for His Majesty to doubt him.
After hearing Mingxiang's words, Prince Xiao Shaojun also nodded.
And the Bai family was relieved, because in Bai's opinion, that Mingyue Ke was just a fool, and even if Mama Wang had been to Yuxin Garden early this morning, she had not met Mingyue Ke directly face to face, so Bai didn't believe that Mingyue Ke could identify Mama Wang.
And the grandmother next to Bai's is actually just Mama Wang, so that she can quickly clear her "grievances".
As for the person who coaxed her into lying in the coffin that Mingyue Ke said, I'm afraid there is someone else, and the Bai family is also thinking in his heart, after all, in this mansion, she is not the only one who is not used to seeing Mingyue Ke, but I don't know, who is it this time who has helped a lot?
Seeing Bai Shi kneeling on the ground, he was relieved, and changed his posture, as if he was relaxed, a fine light flashed in Mingyue Ke's eyes, and he was sure to make her bleed hemorrhage.
And then, Mingyue Ke inadvertently saw Ming Zhize who was still kneeling next to the coffin in the front hall, and saw that at this time, there were several blood marks on the clothes behind Ming Zhize.
When Mingyue Ke was in the coffin before, he heard the movement outside, and naturally heard the sound of those sticks hitting Ming Zhize, Mingyue Ke never thought that those people would be so ruthless, and Ming Zhize was also the third young master in the mansion.
However, Mingyue Ke only thought slightly and understood that over the years that the eldest lady had been in charge, she must have changed the Ming Mansion up and down, and the subordinates in these mansions must also be the people of the eldest lady, so after Ming Xiang let him beat people, it was also under the instructions of the eldest lady Bai Bingzhen that Ming Zhize was really beaten to death.
Thinking about it, when Fang Cai, if it wasn't for Ming Zhize's desperate resistance, he might have really been locked in a coffin, and finally suffocated to death, and he couldn't wait for the prince Xiao Shaojun to arrive, Mingyue Ke's heart was moved.
And at this moment, Ming Zhize coughed violently again, and blood flowed out of the corners of his mouth, seeing this scene, Mingyue Ke naturally had a heartache again.
walked forward and pulled the sleeve of the crown prince Xiao Shaojun.
And the crown prince Xiao Shaojun followed Mingyue Ke's gaze, and naturally saw Ming Zhize who was still kneeling there and holding on.
The crown prince Xiao Shaojun had naturally already conducted an investigation on the people in the Ming Mansion, and at the time when the Queen Mother was going to give him a marriage to Mingyue Ke.
At this time, the crown prince Xiao Shaojun had an indescribable feeling in his heart, the hateful woman in front of him was still caring about other men!
But this man is her younger brother, and if he shows that he is jealous, wouldn't it seem that he is too stingy?
But his heart was sad, he didn't want anyone to get close to her, hurt her or take away her love, how much he wished that she belonged to him alone?
After this thought suddenly popped up in his mind, even the crown prince Xiao Shaojun felt as if he was a little excessive, is this possessiveness?
However, although Xiao Shaojun, the crown prince of Mingyue Ke's concern for other men, was a little unhappy, but since it was Mingyue Ke's request, he would still satisfy it without hesitation.
That's right, in the eyes of the crown prince Xiao Shaojun, Mingyue Ke at this time was begging him.
Isn't this act of pulling his sleeve and revealing it in his eyes also a pleading?
She was begging him, and thinking of this, a smile appeared on the corner of Prince Xiao Shaojun's mouth.
"Alright, let's all get up and talk. Prince Xiao Shaojun also coughed slightly twice to suppress the excitement in his heart, and then said to the people in front of him.
After the crown prince Xiao Shaojun finished speaking, everyone, including Ming Xiang, also got up, and the Bai family also made small movements, hammering his calf while getting up.
Bai knelt and was not allowed to get up. ”
As soon as the Bai family got up, before he could stand firmly, he heard the words of the crown prince Xiao Shaojun, and his face immediately changed.
At this time, Bai Shi was also stunned in place, not understanding what was happening, why everyone was standing, but she was the only one who continued to kneel?
"Didn't you hear His Royal Highness the Prince's words?" Seeing that the Bai family was still in a daze, Ming Xiang was also slightly angry, so he whispered to remind the Bai family.
Seeing the anger on Ming Xiang's face, Bai naturally didn't dare to say more, so he immediately knelt on the ground again, and he didn't dare to gasp.
"The Bai clan dared to be disrespectful to the future crown princess, and they didn't even find out if the crown princess really had a breath, so they were in a hurry to fix the coffin, if it wasn't for Lone arriving in time, I'm afraid you would have to bury the crown princess alive?" Prince Xiao Shaojun's originally handsome face was cold at this time.
Mingyue Ke was also angry when he saw the crown prince Xiao Shaojun for the first time, but he didn't expect that he was for himself.
And Mingyue Ke also noticed that in his words, in front of everyone, he called himself the crown princess, not the future crown princess or her name.
In fact, not only Mingyue Ke noticed it, but also Ming Xiang and others naturally noticed this.
Ming Xiang also sighed in his heart at this time, originally he also thought that the prince would oppose this family affair, and he would take advantage of this opportunity to push away the family affair arranged by the queen mother.
But I never thought that the prince would be so affectionate to his daughter?
Or is it possible that although the prince does not pay attention to the affairs of the court on the surface, in fact, secretly, he still has some thoughts about that position, and wants to get his support?
No, I can't figure it out like this, I have a total of six daughters, among them, three daughters, including Mingyue Ke, are all to be married, and the fourth daughter Ming Zhenru will have another half a year, so the prince may not necessarily have to marry Mingyue Ke.
After thinking of this, Ming Xiang was even more puzzled, and at this time, he raised his head, but saw that the crown prince Xiao Shaojun was full of doting in his eyes when he looked at Mingyue Ke.
Perhaps, is it really because of love?
"So the lonely punishment of kneeling the Bai family, what does Ming Xiang think?" After seeing the Bai family kneeling unwillingly, the prince looked at Ming Xiang and his wife, his face changed rapidly, and he became cold again, and at the same time asked Ming Xiang out loud.
"Returning to His Royal Highness the Prince, the old minister has no objections. Ming Xiang naturally gave up his hands and replied respectfully to the words of Prince Xiao Shaojun.
Bai Shi, who was kneeling on the ground, pressed his pale lips at this time, and the handkerchief in his hand was about to be crushed and cracked, and he couldn't swallow this breath in his heart.
When did she Bai Bingzhen suffer such humiliation?
At this time, in front of the people of the Ming Mansion, she was left to kneel on the ground alone, which was really a slap in the face.
What's more, Bai Bingzhen is the cousin of the step-queen, and in terms of seniority, she is still the elder of the prince, and being bullied like this by a junior naturally makes Bai Bingzhen even more unable to swallow this breath.
And at this time, the second lady of the Ming Mansion came back tomorrow Wei.
It turned out that early in the morning, tomorrow Wei would leave the Ming Mansion, and today naturally had an appointment with the three princes.
After hearing that something had happened at home, the second lady of the Ming Mansion naturally rushed back as soon as possible.
However, she didn't come back alone, and naturally she was accompanied by the three princes.
And when they were on the road, Ming Mingwei and the third prince Xiao Hongbin met the fifth prince Xiao Deze, who was also traveling.
The fifth prince felt that he himself was idle anyway, so he followed the two to the Ming Mansion.
For a time, the Ming Mansion actually gathered the three princes of the current saint, and one of them was the crown prince.
"I didn't expect the prince to be here?" The third prince, Xiao Hongbin, saw that the prince was also in the Ming Mansion, and he was also a little surprised, because on weekdays, he heard that the crown prince Xiao Shaojun was not out of the gate of the East Palace.
"In this way, it seems that we brothers have not seen the prince's brother for half a year. Xiao Deze, who was on the side, smelled the smell of fire in the air when the third prince Xiao Hongbin spoke, and at this time he began to act as a peacemaker, inserting in the middle to change the topic.
"Something happened to the crown princess, shouldn't Lone appear here for the first time?" said the crown prince Xiao Shaojun without showing any weakness in the slightest.
"That's true, after all, fools deserve to be taken care of. The corners of the third prince's mouth were sneering, and then he mocked the crown prince Xiao Shaojun mercilessly and said.
Whether it is the crown prince Xiao Shaojun or the third prince Xiao Hongbin, they all selectively and directly ignore the fifth prince Xiao Deze on the side.
At this time, Xiao Deze was even more in the middle of the two, with a warm smile on his face, trying to persuade the two to avoid further deterioration.
In the current front yard of the Ming Mansion, everyone's eyes were on the three princes, and naturally no one noticed the gaze on the face of Ming Yueke, who was hiding behind the prince.
Where is Mingyue Ke's face still half stupid?
I saw that her face was also cold, and at the same time, her whole body was trembling slightly.
Scumbag!
Mingyue Ke will appear in such a situation in front of him because of the sudden appearance of the fifth prince Xiao Deze.
In fact, the crown prince Xiao Shaojun and the third prince ignored the fifth prince Xiao Deze beside him, also because, at this stage, the fifth prince Xiao Deze was still extremely low-key.
On weekdays, Xiao Deze is also a person who does not fight or rob, but Mingyue Ke knows that the other party has raised an army and recruited talents, and there are a lot of actions behind his back.
It's just that everyone is ignored by Xiao Deze's appearance, so they all think that he doesn't have any threat.
Above the court, it is now basically divided into two major factions headed by the eight kings "Xiao Liangjun" and the third prince Xiao Hongbin.
And when these two factions will compete for both sides, Xiao Deze will jump out, and then the fisherman will benefit.
Looking at the warm smile on the face of the fifth prince Xiao Deze, Mingyue Ke was even more angry.
However, at this time, Mingyue Ke was not only dressed in a disheveled bun, but also hid behind the crown prince Xiao Shaojun, and kept her head down, so everyone naturally couldn't see the expression on her face.
Listening to the warm and jade-like voice of the person in front of him, Mingyue Ke felt as if she was about to suffocate.
I thought that after so much time, I should have forgotten it a long time ago, but I didn't expect that the heart would not deceive, and it would be very painful and painful.
