Chapter 17: Questioning and Cutting (2)
'The female official Han Qi seduced His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and beheaded him three days later. ’
The news quickly reached the family.
Old lady: "Qi'er is pure and good by nature, how can she seduce His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Grandmother said worriedly.
Father: "My son found out about this a few days ago. Brother Yuan Ke told me about this because His Royal Highness the Son of Heaven touched Qi'er's medicine box, and the two accidentally touched it when they were picking up medicine. How could I have thought that something so big would happen? ”
An'er's mother: "Is there a way?" ”
Father: "I thought I shouldn't have anything to do with the people in the palace, but this Han Qi did such a thing." I'm afraid we'll be connected together. ”
An'er: "No, no. It is said that Emperor Wu is merciful today, how could it be..."
Father: "What do children know?" By the way, bring me the tea that I dried. ”
An'er: "Yes" After saying that, An'er turned around and went to the back room.
As he spoke, a man in a white cloak walked in, and he didn't look like an ordinary person.
Gatekeeper: "Master, I didn't stop it, this son and his attendant have to break in." ”
Father: "Please go down first." Since there are distinguished guests, how can they not be welcomed. ”
Ande: "This is my son-in-law, I have something to discuss with Imperial Doctor Han, and please go first..."
Father: "Mother, go back to the room first." ”
After saying that, her grandmother and brother left, and An'er continued to look for the tea her father was looking for in the inner room, but she listened to something she shouldn't have heard.
Father: "I didn't know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was coming, and I was not welcome from afar." ”
Prince Li Xian: "You don't need to be born, I came here today for Han Qi's matter, I can't hide it, Han Qi and I have long had feelings for each other, but I didn't expect this matter to kill Han Qi." ”
Father: "It's a humiliating job, how can my little sister be with you... Your Highness also knows that our medical officers are already humble, how could such a thing happen? ”
Prince Li Xian: "Now this is the only way to save Han Qi's life." ”
Father: "How?" ”
Prince Li Xian: "Anyway, I have my own way to save her." ”
An'er: "Father, you want something, An'er brought it." An'er came out from behind, and the prince's attendant immediately drew his sword and faced him. He pointed his sword at An'er.
An'er: "Ah. An'er raised her hand to protect her head.
Father: "This is the little daughter An'er, who has disturbed His Royal Highness the Prince." An'er's scream didn't matter, she covered her head with both hands, and the plum blossom mark on her arm appeared.
Prince Li Xian: "Ande." ”
Ande: "It's rude, His Royal Highness really likes Han Qi, and this is the only way to save her, otherwise the Han family will be harmed that day, and when the time comes..."
Father: "Bad fate, as long as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really likes Han Qi and can keep my Han family safe, I will ask His Highness." ”
Prince Li Xian: "At this time, let's make this decision first, don't tell anyone else about today's events, and say goodbye." ”
After speaking, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince put on his cloak and walked out, scared An'er into a cold sweat. My father always said that it was good for a practitioner to do his job well, and he couldn't interact too much with the people in the court, but for the sake of his aunt, did his father want...
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and his attendants will go to the palace and prepare to meet the mother emperor before executing Han Qi and be strict about this matter. However, this matter can be big or small, and Emperor Wu agrees to be happy, otherwise even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be implicated.
Unexpectedly, as soon as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said this, the Empress Wu was furious...
After the court this morning, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince walked to Emperor Wu's bedroom, thinking that he was the mother emperor, and it should be okay to visit.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince: "The sons and daughters meet the mother emperor." ”
Emperor Wu: "But what's the matter, why did you just come to me after the next court." Her eyes were firm and favorable, enough to spy on the heart of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
In this case, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said this without concealment, but it is very likely that Emperor Wu will... I can't care about it so much.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince: "Erchen is guilty, Erchen hopes that Emperor Wu can spare the female official Han Qi." ”
Emperor Wu: "Presumptuous! His Royal Highness the Prince actually bent down for a woman and came to beg me. ”
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince: "Mother Emperor, I really love Qi'er, I want to marry..."
Emperor Wu: "I actually swayed your heart for a woman, and I kindly made you the prince, you really don't understand my heart, since you want to marry her, then be a pair of outlaw mandarin ducks." Someone came, abolished his crown prince, put him in prison, and beheaded him with the female official. ”
His Royal Highness the Prince: "What? He sat down on the ground at once.
Emperor Wu: "If you don't come yet, pull him out." ”
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince: "The mother emperor spares his life, I really love Qi'er, the mother emperor..."
Shangguan Wan'er: "Your Majesty, please, listen to me." With that, she walked in front of Emperor Wu.
Shangguan Wan'er: "Your Majesty, if you really abolish the crown prince, it just gives the official a chance to take advantage of it." ”
Emperor Wu: "What do you say?" ”
Shangguan Wan'er: "Your Majesty, Wan'er knows that Your Majesty ascended the throne, and the ministers of the official position were afraid of being criticized. "In this huge palace, only this Wan'er dares to say this to His Majesty.
Emperor Wu: "Hahaha, okay, if you really want to marry that woman, then be a quiet prince, and pass on my order to abolish the position of Prince Li Xian and crown Prince Yong." ”
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince: "Thank you... Emperor Xie Mu. ”
In this way, he gave up the position of prince and saved Han Qi. This matter still caused controversy in the court, but because of the majesty of Emperor Wu, no one dared to say anything.
In fact, Emperor Wu has his own thoughts, this Han family, who has been a doctor for generations, and there is no power in the court, it is much better than marrying the daughters of those important ministers.
Of course, this has also spread to the family, and my grandfather has been trapped in the Imperial Medical Department because of this matter, and now this abolished prince Bao Han Qi shocked my grandfather. Fortunately, my grandfather was allowed to return home.
Grandfather came back, and we all went to the door to greet him, and my grandfather had a sad face, and my aunt was fine, why did my grandfather and father worry so much.
When my grandfather returned, I went to the study to talk to my father.
Grandfather: "Hey, in this way, our Han family will be involved in the matter of the prince." ”
Father: "Yes, we're just a medical officer, and because of An'er, we really can't have a relationship. But since Han Qi is fine..."
Grandfather: "In this way, people with a heart will attribute us to Prince Yong's party, in short, in the turbulent situation, our Han family will not have a peaceful life." ”
Mei'er: "Old lady, master." Mei'er walked in excitedly with something in her hand.
Father: "Why are you so happy?" ”
Mei'er: "The slave maid just came back from the market and saw the notice saying that Aunt Han Qi had been pardoned. ”
Grandfather: "But really? ”
Father: "Sure enough, His Royal Highness the Prince's method worked, and it is estimated that she will be able to come back soon." Go down first. ”
Mei'er: "The slave and maid are retired." ”
Two days later, Han Qi returned home...
