Chapter 284: Discovered by Song Qian
The Assassins' ploy proved to be successful. Let them naturally hide from the world, and they can carry out the next plan.
Just as Ji Changye was about to discuss the next plan, there was a knock on the door outside, and Changfeng was signaled to open the door, only to find that it was Song Qian who came with a bowl of steaming shredded porridge with vegetables and meat.
"The prince went out early this morning, and he had to take the bowl of medicine again, and his body couldn't hold it without eating, so I boiled some porridge and sent it. But the prince is in there?" Song Qian's gaze reached inside, and Changfeng was afraid that she would find something strange in the inner room, so he turned sideways to block her view.
It's good if you don't cover it, this cover will make Song Qian realize that something is wrong. Looking at Changfeng's strange expression, Song Qian knew that there must be something greasy in this, and couldn't help but wonder if it was related to the corpse he saw this morning.
Just when she was stunned, Ji Changye, who was not at ease, came out of the inner room, because he was afraid that Changfeng would be difficult to deal with Song Qian, so she would find something, so he personally came to cover Song Qian's vision leading to the inner room.
"Lord Wang, this is the western porridge with shredded vegetables and meat made for you, you can taste it and see if it suits the taste." Song Qian immediately came back to his senses and took the initiative to speak to alleviate this embarrassment, as if he didn't care about the things inside.
After Ji Changye took it, he thanked and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Is there anything else Song Niangzi has come to do this time?" He asked tentatively, and kept praying in his heart that Song Qian would not notice about this matter.
Song Qian shook his head knowingly and replied, "There is nothing else to do, since the things have been delivered, then you should hurry up and go in." I'll go first, and I promised Ah Jin and Yuan Bao to cook food for them" After that, she turned around and lifted her skirt and prepared to leave, but at this moment, there was an assassin's wail inside, and Song Qian immediately stopped as soon as this voice came out, it seems that she can't guess it, there is someone else here.
was afraid that Song Qian really knew something, so Ji Changye hurriedly opened his mouth and diverted the topic and said, "Song Niangzi, I don't know if you have time today, can you make a squirrel fish? For some reason, I especially want to eat fish today. If Song Niangzi doesn't have time, or doesn't have the energy, forget it." He deliberately spoke so loudly that he drowned out the sound just now.
Song Qian couldn't imagine what kind of secret it was, and it would make them so nervous that they didn't want to know about it, so he pretended to be casual and replied, "The prince said that he laughed, naturally there is time, so I will let people go to the market to buy fish, and make it for you to eat at noon." The prince remembered to drink the porridge while it was hot, if it was cold, it would not taste good, then I would leave first." After that, Song Qian left without looking back.
This made Ji Changye and Changfeng breathe a sigh of relief.
After making sure that Song Qian had completely walked away, the two of them immediately returned to the inner room to check the assassin's injuries, wondering what had happened to him just now.
"Just now, my heart suddenly tightened, as if I had been caught, and I didn't catch my breath. It's the subordinates who didn't hold back, forgetting that the princess was still outside and causing trouble to the prince, and I hope not to blame." The assassin's face turned pale at this time, and cold sweat oozed from his forehead, which looked very painful.
Ji Changye was worried that the poison was too toxic, whether it had penetrated the assassin's liver, otherwise how could there be heartache for no reason?
In order not to put the assassins in danger, Ji Changye asked Changfeng to invite Gongzu Teng to come and check the pulse.
But the moment Changfeng opened the door, he was stunned in place, as if he had seen something terrible.
At this time, Ji Changye walked strangely towards Changfeng, I don't know why he suddenly froze in place, and when he just wanted to speak, he also saw the figure standing outside the door, it turned out to be Song Qian,
Because it was too abrupt when she turned back, the door opened by Changfeng was unguarded, allowing Song Qian to have an unobstructed view of everything in the inner room, and naturally found the assassin lying on the bed.
I still remember that when I saw him in the morning, he was still a cold corpse, but I didn't expect to come back to life at this time, so at this time, Song Qian had already figured out that the bowl of medicine was for the assassin, not for Ji Changye.
Song Qian, who came back to his senses, opened his mouth and said, "Changfeng, you are going to find the Gongzu Divine Doctor, go quickly, don't delay." With that, she turned sideways and made way for Changfeng.
Changfeng was still a little at a loss, turned his head to look at Ji Changye, wanting to see what he commanded, Ji Changye's expression at this time also calmed down from a little shock, he nodded to Changfeng, Changfeng, who understood the meaning, did not dare to delay, and quickly left here to find Gongzu Teng.
Song Qian, on the other hand, walked into the room after Changfeng left, and closed the door vigilantly, and then explained to Ji Changye, who didn't know why, "I originally wanted to turn back and ask the prince if he wanted to eat fish soup to replenish his body, but I didn't mean to hear the conversation between you. Don't worry, my lord, I won't tell you about it, I'll just treat it as if none of this happened."
"Now that Song Niangzi has seen it, then I don't have any need to hide it. This is the man who performed the assassination on the day of the wedding, and the man under my hand. Now, for my next plan, he took medicine and faked his death, proving that there is no longer him in this world, so I hid him so as not to be exposed. If there is anything in Song Niangzi, just say it."
If she was worried that this matter would involve her and Yuanbao, she would immediately send someone to send them back to Sulou Town to avoid the limelight, and wait until she had dealt with all this before taking them back.
Song Qian did shake his head when he heard his words and said, "Lord Wang, don't worry, I can treat today's events as if I didn't see them. Since the prince didn't take the initiative to tell me what happened, it must be a big deal, so I won't ask too much. But if there is anything you need me to do, just ask, if I can do it, I will definitely find a way to do it."
At this time, she saw the Assassin on the bed and said, "He is now covered in scars, and he should not act like this, because it is easy to pull the wound, and the infection will be difficult to heal when the time comes." Saying that, Song Qian asked Ji Changye to help, and helped the assassin change to a more comfortable posture, which really made the assassin's breath much smoother, and the discomfort just now disappeared a lot.
"Thank you, Princess." The Assassin said gratefully.
"I'll make you some nourishing soup later, your body is too weak, you need to make up for it to get better faster." Song Qian got up and took two steps back, and replied with a calm face.
The assassin excitedly wanted to get up and thank him, but was stopped by Song Qian: "Your injuries can't be pulled at will, so don't get up, since there is nothing else to do, I will leave here first, and the prince will leave." After that, she turned around and left here, without giving Ji Changye a chance to explain again.
At this time, Gongzu Teng returned here under the guidance of Changfeng, and before he could put down the medicine box, he came to the assassin to check his pulse, and after a while, he heard him say, "It's not a big deal, it's just because this medicine has some reactions in the body, it's all normal, don't worry too much. However, I still have to tell you that his poison is not child's play, although he has already taken the antidote and prescribed a prescription to suppress the toxin, but it will take a while to clean it up, and he can't be allowed to move around at will during this time, lest the toxins that have accumulated so hard will definitely spread."
"Yes, listen to the doctor." Ji Changye listened to Gongzu Teng's words meticulously, and wrote down everything he said.
After Gongzu Teng left, Ji Changye could be regarded as letting go of his hanging heart, but fortunately, there was no major problem.
And for the next period of time, the assassins were secretly cultivated in the Regent's Palace, and their identities were never revealed, and the outside world was not only the people of the country, but even the people who had already believed that the assassins had hated the northwest.
This is exactly what Ji Changye wants.
And after doing so much, Ji Changye didn't forget about the matter, when the emperor investigated this matter, he tried every means to have a relationship with the crown prince, which was his final goal.
If the emperor really investigated the mastermind behind this matter, it was actually related to Ji Qirui, and he was a little incredulous and summoned Ji Qirui and Ji Changye into the palace, wanting to interrogate them clearly.
Ji Qirui didn't understand what this matter had to do with him, but because it was the emperor's edict, he had to go.
And Ji Changye knew very well what would happen next, so he thought about what words to use to deal with next.
The Emperor looked at the two of them, and did not immediately ask about the Assassins, but said, "How have you been doing lately?"
"Back to Your Majesty
and be well." Ji Changye replied.
Ji Qirui also echoed,
At this time, the emperor's expression suddenly became solemn, and he said indifferently, "I already know the true identity of the assassin."
Ji Qirui's expression changed, and he frowned and asked, "Father, who is the mastermind behind this person? Why do you want to be so ruthless? To be able to do it on the day of the regent's wedding is certainly not a simple purpose."
"I naturally know that this person's purpose is not pure, and I already know the identity of this person, but now that person is still pretending to be stupid with me, if I really don't know anything, can he do whatever he wants? actually hit the idea on the emperor's relatives! Are there any rules?" At this time, the emperor couldn't hold back his anger, and slapped the table and said loudly,
This move made Ji Qirui extremely puzzled, he looked at the emperor and hurriedly knelt down and asked, "Father, please don't be angry, it's not worth it to break the dragon body for such a rebellious person. The father can order the son-in-law, and the son-in-law will arrest this person, calm the father's anger, and give an explanation to the regent and the world, so that he will not continue to be arrogant."
Looking at Ji Qirui's face, the emperor didn't expect him to pretend to be so far, as if this matter had nothing to do with him, just as he was about to pick out this matter, Ji Changye suddenly said on the side: "Your Majesty, this person dares to do this kind of thing, which means that he has a careful plan, and maybe he has used some kind of tricks, so Your Majesty don't believe in some so-called truths, you still have to investigate carefully before making a conclusion."
He didn't want to exonerate Ji Qirui, but he was not satisfied that the emperor only investigated a little bit about what Ji Qirui did and wanted to punish him, his ultimate goal was actually to let the emperor know how bad Ji Qirui's behavior was, and then Ji Qirui's punishment would be heavier, and the plan to abolish the prince would go further.
The emperor probably didn't want to believe that this matter was really related to Ji Qirui, so he calmed down after listening to Ji Changye's words, and also went down the steps he gave: "The regent is right, I will investigate this matter carefully, and you can go back first today."
The singing and harmony of the two made Ji Qirui lose his head.
What's going on?
