Chapter 032 Searching the Mansion, the Childish Innocent
The cold wind was bitter, and Mu Jinshu stood in the courtyard wearing a thick fox fur, watching the Praetorian Guards search the mansion under the leadership of Mu Jinchen, but could not do anything.
The lips were unusually red, as if they were about to drip blood.
Crown Princess Li Rong hugged her infant son, stood beside him uneasily, and asked in a trembling voice: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, what have you done?" ”
"Rong'er, if there is any accident in this palace...... You take the child back to your parents' house. Mu Jinshu said softly.
The Praetorian Guards searched like this, and the secret letter was afraid that it would not be able to hide.
It's hateful that he doesn't have full evidence to prove that the unjust case of King Nada twenty years ago was actually a conspiracy between Concubine Qin and the regent of Beiyan.
"Prince, the concubine is afraid of ......" Li Rong was about to cry in fright.
"Don't be afraid. If you really can't do it, go and ask King Chen, maybe he can save the lives of your mother and son. Mu Jinshu sighed, his thin body couldn't stand the cold wind, and coughed again.
When Li Rong heard the word "King Chen", she was directly frightened and cried.
Even if she died, she didn't dare to go to Shura King Xuanyuan Ji!
"Don't be afraid, King Chen is your elder and mine, and he won't die for a child." Mu Jinshu wanted to comfort his wife, but his thin body couldn't stand the cold wind, and before his smile was torn off, he coughed violently: "Ahem......"
Mu Jinchen sat triumphantly under the eaves, enjoying hot tea around the fireplace, and did not take the prince in his eyes at all.
Mu Jinshu hated in his heart, the secret letter he got after secretly investigating for a long time turned out to be fake!
All this is Mu Jinchen's conspiracy.
But the catastrophe came so suddenly that he didn't have time to destroy the secret letter.
Today, he's finished!
"The prince is not in good health, why is he still standing in the courtyard?" Xuanyuan Ji strode with Gonggong Hu.
Li Rong was so frightened that she hid behind Mu Jinshu, and she didn't dare to say anything.
Mu Jinshu was very surprised when he saw Xuanyuan Ji: "Why is Uncle Huang here?" ”
"Passing by."
Xuanyuan had a cold and calm face, "The Prince's Mansion is really lively today. ”
"Uncle Huang came just in time! The prince fabricated a secret letter and wanted to frame the concubine. My father ordered me to bring someone to search, and Uncle Huang should also take a look! Mu Jinchen got up and gave up his seat for Xuanyuan Ji.
Xuanyuan Ji walked over and kicked over the small table.
The red-hot clay stove fell to the ground and almost hit Mu Jinchen's feet.
He hurried back, but the hem of his clothes was still scorched by the splashing sparks.
"The emperor is only suspicious, and has not yet convicted the crown prince. Everyone knows that the prince is not in good health and can't stand the cold, but King Rui still let their family stand in the courtyard in the snow and blow the cold wind, what are your thoughts? Xuanyuan asked sharply.
Mu Jinchen patted the horse's leg on the horse's leg, frightened, and hurriedly explained: "Uncle Huang, this matter is very important, I surrounded them in the courtyard, and I was afraid that they would destroy the secret letter with their hands and feet." ”
"Secret letter?" Xuanyuan sneered, "What kind of secret letter?" ”
"The prince asked people to imitate Concubine Qin's handwriting and fabricated a letter saying that the concubine had colluded with Beiyan. Therefore, my father was very angry and ordered me to search. ”
"Did you find it?" Xuanyuan asked.
Mu Jinchen said: "The ...... is being searched"
"Then who told the emperor about the crown prince?" Xuanyuan asked again.
Mu Jinchen hesitated for a moment and said, "It was the person who imitated the handwriting who was arrested in the gambling house and confessed the matter." ”
"How can you believe the words of a gambler?" Xuanyuan sneered.
Mu Jinchen said: "When the results of the search come out, the truth will naturally be known." ”
"Heh, it seems that King Rui is very confident." Xuanyuan Ji lifted the hem of his clothes and sat on the vermilion lacquer chair, "That king wants to see what the secret letter written by a gambler looks like!" ”
"Please take a break." Mu Jinchen respectfully poured tea for Xuanyuan Ji.
Xuanyuan didn't bird him, but said to Mu Jinshu: "The prince is not in good health, and the little prince is not yet full-term, so don't stand in the courtyard and blow the cold wind." ”
"Thank you, Uncle Huang."
Mu Jinshu bowed respectfully, and took his wife and children to the porch to avoid the snow.
It's much better than standing in the yard, but it's still cold.
The child in Li Rong's arms suddenly cried, Xuanyuan Ji glanced at it, and ordered coldly: "Come on, put charcoal on the fire!" ”
"Yes!"
Soon, a few pots of silver charcoal were placed under the porch, and the warmth dispersed, finally insulating the ice and snow.
Mu Jinshu was very grateful and said to Xuanyuan Ji: "Thank you, Uncle Huang! ”
"The child is innocent, King Rui is also a father, and he doesn't even understand this little truth!" Xuanyuan's extremely cold gaze made Mu Jinchen feel timid.
He smiled dryly: "Uncle Huang taught you a lesson!" ”
"Go, and find out the evidence of the crime so that the king can also see it."
"Yes."
Mu Jinchen also felt that it was too much pressure to be with Xuanyuan Ji, so it was better to search for criminal evidence.
Hmph, when he finds evidence of the crime, he will pull Mu Jinshu off the horse!
This prince, change him to be it!
Xuanyuan Ji sat and drank tea expressionlessly, looking businesslike.
Mu Jinshu thought about it for a while, and pulled Li Rong to kneel down for him: "Uncle Huang, my nephew has something to ask for......
"What?" Xuanyuan asked.
"My nephew is not in good health, and I am afraid that he will not be able to last long. If there is really something in the future, please ask the imperial uncle to take care of their mother and son......" Mu Jinshu said, coughing again.
Pale face, blood-red lips, the contrast is extremely strong.
Li Rong shed tears silently and didn't dare to speak.
Xuanyuan Ji was silent for a moment and asked, "Did the prince really commit a crime?" ”
Mu Jinshu smiled bitterly, "My nephew can't tell if he's wrong." ”
The first emperor wronged the Nada tribe, and he wanted to set things right, but he violated the interests of some people.
"Among the princes, you are the most responsible. If you are really wrong, there is nothing the king can do. But if anyone wrongs you, this king can still help you. Xuanyuan said.
Mu Jinshu lowered his eyes lonely: "Uncle Huang doesn't have to protect me, just protect their mother and son." ”
Xuanyuan was silent again.
Could it be that Mu Jinshu has made up his mind to redress the Nada tribe?
For him, that's a good thing.
But......
Xuanyuan Ji looked at the toddler in Li Rong's arms and couldn't bear it.
Children need their parents the most, and no amount of shelter from others can make up for it.
Just like him.
"Don't be discouraged, the prince is doing things for the people of the world, and there are naturally people in the world for you." Regulus pursed his lips meaningfully.
Mu Jinshu didn't know what he meant.
It is only known that Xuanyuan Ji has a withdrawn personality and is uncertain, and no one can guess his thoughts. But it's good to have his help today.
The husband and wife silently waited for the crime to come to their heads.
Another stick of incense passed, and the prince's mansion had been turned upside down.
Mu Jinchen finally came back with someone, and his face was ugly.
"King Rui, have you found anything?" Xuanyuan Ji sat on the vermilion lacquer chair, not angry and arrogant.
"I didn't find it."
Mu Jinchen was depressed.
That thing was obviously placed in Mu Jinshu's study, why was it missing?
"Didn't find it?" Xuanyuan raised his eyebrows lightly, "You just swore that the prince was guilty, and now tell this king that there is no evidence of guilt?" ”
