Xi'er and Lu Hao were full of doubts, but looking at Lu Jiuyuan's murderous face, they could only suppress their doubts back into their stomachs, and they were silent, and they entered the mansion with Mo Die.

"Uze, send someone to track down the assassin and his wife immediately!" Lu Jiuyuan's face was like frost, and he ordered in a deep voice.

When Wu Ze heard this, his heart sank, he withdrew his gaze to look at Mo Die, and replied respectfully: "Yes!" ”

After instructing this matter, Lu Jiuyuan did not enter the mansion, but turned around and went to the palace.

The Emperor was sitting in the imperial study with a frustrated heart.

Unexpectedly, Heng'er has been hanging on the city gate for a day, and there is still no news from Rong Niang.

That slut was so calm that he didn't care about Heng'er's life or death.

At this moment, Lu Jiuyuan asked to see him.

The emperor didn't want to see it, but he did.

"Jiuyuan came to see me, what's the matter?"

Lu Jiuyuan lowered his head and said: "Your Majesty, Fang Caichen came back from the barracks and saw the little prince hanging on the wall of the city gate with his face covered in blood, I don't know what the little emperor has done?" ”

The emperor frowned, "So you're here to intercede for the little prince now?" ”

Lu Jiuyuan nodded, "Yes." After a pause, he added, "The child is innocent. ”

The emperor was silent.

Lu Jiuyuan glanced at him and continued: "The people don't know the reason, they have everything to say, and if they continue like this, I'm afraid that the people will misunderstand the emperor."

Besides, the little prince is at fault, but he has been hanging there for a day, and the adults can't stand it, not to mention that the little prince is still so young, and the ministers are afraid that if he continues to hang, something will happen to the little prince. ”

When the emperor heard this, he shook a little.

At this time, Feng Quan came in to report, "Your Majesty, there is news from outside the palace that the ice beauty has died due to excessive blood loss, they ask if they want to put the ice beauty down first?" ”

When the emperor heard this, he was a little dissatisfied, "Why is it so useless, and he died in less than a day?" ”

Feng Quan lowered his head, "It is said that because the ice beauty was too seriously injured and did not be treated in time, she was hung there and exposed to the sun for another day......"

Lu Jiuyuan frowned and said: "Your Majesty, the ice beauty can't stand it for an adult, let alone the little prince, without further ado, let's put the little prince down first." ”

When Feng Quan heard this, he also pleaded, "Yes, Your Majesty, the weather is so hot, if it continues like this, the little prince is afraid that something will happen......"

He knew that the emperor hung the little prince on the wall of the city gate in order to force Rong Niang to come out, and he didn't really want the little prince's life.

In order to avoid an accident, the emperor regretted it, and after Feng Quan finished speaking, he knelt down again, "Your Majesty, let's put the little prince down first, the slave listened to the people below say that the little prince's consciousness has been blurred......

When the emperor heard this, he finally let go, waved his hand and said, "Okay, pass on my will and take the little prince back to the palace." ”

Feng Quan was overjoyed, "Yes." ”

Lu Jiuyuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

As soon as Feng Quan left, the emperor looked at Lu Jiuyuan, "When you entered the palace today, you specially interceded for the little prince?" ”

Lu Jiuyuan didn't hide it, "Exactly." ”

The emperor glanced at him scrutinically, "Jiuyuan, sometimes, you are really unpredictable, everyone says that you are cold-blooded and ruthless, and you treat human life like a mustard, but judging from the matter of the crown prince and the little prince, you are not so, on the contrary, you are extremely ...... Zealous. ”

Lu Jiuyuan sighed, "What kind of person is the minister, doesn't the emperor know best?" However, this time the affairs of the little prince, the minister didn't want to take care of it.

But there were too many onlookers, and the minister didn't want the people to misunderstand that the emperor was a brutal person, so it was troublesome. ”

When the emperor heard this, his face was slightly relaxed, "That's it, I didn't think about this matter, in fact, the prince also came to intercede for Heng'er." ”

Lu Jiuyuan nodded, "The prince is kind-hearted, so naturally he can't see his younger brother suffer this way." After a pause, he comforted, "The minister knows the pain in the emperor's heart, but ...... People can't be resurrected after death, I believe that Wan Jieyu is in the spirit of the sky, and I also hope that the emperor can be happier. ”

Speaking of Wanrun, the emperor's face turned gloomy, "No, she must have hated me to death, if I hadn't sent her to the cold palace, she wouldn't have had an accident." ”

"Your Majesty, this is an accident, you don't want to, Wan Jieyu will understand the emperor, the emperor should take care of the dragon's body." Lu Jiuyuan lowered his eyes and said.

The Emperor waved his hand, "I know, you can go." ”

"The minister retired." Lu Jiuyuan arched his hand.

When he arrived at the palace gate, he happened to meet Feng Quan.

Feng Quan got out of the carriage and held Heng'er in his arms, who had just been put down.

Seeing this, Lu Jiuyuan stepped forward to inspect it.

The blood stains on Heng'er's face had been wiped off, her little face was pale, her lips were also dried and peeled, her eyes were closed, and she curled up in Feng Quan's arms.

He frowned and asked, "Gonggong Feng, is there nothing wrong with the little prince?" ”

Feng Quan sighed, "The weather is too hot, and the little prince is so sunburned that he faints." ”

"Then hurry up and send him to the palace and let the imperial doctor take a look." Lu Jiuyuan said.

"Yes." Feng Quan nodded, and was about to enter the palace with Heng'er, but at this moment, Heng'er, who had been closing her eyes, actually opened her eyes.

His little face was pale, but his eyes were surprisingly bright, and he looked at Lu Jiuyuan and said, "Lu Guogong...... Does my father dislike me anymore? ”

Lu Jiuyuan paused, raised his hand and touched his head, "Little prince, people live in this world, just be yourself." ”

Heng'er lowered her head and said with a faint breath: "I understand......"

Feng Quan couldn't bear it, and wanted to comfort him a few words, but found that he couldn't open his mouth.

After all, it is an indisputable fact that the emperor hung him on the wall of the city gate, and besides, the little prince has always been smart, so how can he not see clearly?

Lu Jiuyuan didn't say much, only said: "Take good care of yourself, your brother Xiaohao and sister Tao Yao, they all care about you, you are okay now, they can rest assured." ”

Hearing this, Heng'er's eyes lit up, "I, I haven't seen them for a long time, are they okay?" ”

"They're very good, and I can let you meet them when I have the opportunity in the future." Lu Jiuyuan said softly, "But the premise is that you have to take care of your body quickly." ”

Heng'er nodded heavily, "I will." ”

Seeing this, Feng Quan was relieved, glanced at Lu Jiuyuan gratefully, and hurriedly entered the palace with him in his arms.

Lu Jiuyuan stood in place for a while before getting into the carriage.

As soon as he returned to the Lu Guo Mansion, Mama Lan, who was waiting by the door, invited him to Fushoutang.

Lu Jiuyuan looked at the old lady on the seat and asked, "What is my mother looking for me?" ”

The old lady glanced at him, sighed and said, "You are busy with official business all day, if I don't ask someone to invite you, I'm afraid you won't remember it at all, and I'm an old woman, right?" ”

"Mother is too worried, I am always thinking about you." Lu Jiuyuan said.

The old lady was stunned for a moment, and looked at him with a ghost-like expression, "Lao Jiu, are you okay?" ”
