Chen Jingnong's remarks were tantamount to not accepting the prince's grace, and the faces of everyone present changed.

The prince's face can't be dismissed casually.

When Yuan Zhi heard this, he was a little unhappy in his heart, but then he thought about it, the nobles of the Southern Dynasty still minded the Yuan royal family in the end.

It is inevitable to be gracious, but you can't rush it, you have to take it slowly.

"Okay, this matter will be done according to General Jingnong's wishes, and the fourth-rank rank aunt will let the military hall go to the post for the time being, and after you make new contributions, you can immediately issue an edict that will take effect."

"After the two of you go back, please ask your father-in-law and teacher for their opinion, if he does not agree with you leaving Yizhou, he will immediately order you to be the acting chief general of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate."

"The last general has thanked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Chen Jingnong is very satisfied with this result.

Anxi is the chief general of the Hufu Town, which is a position of real power, and the mountain is high and the emperor is far away.

The crown prince nodded and turned his face to Ji Yi and Ding Jiu.

"Ji Yi, you quickly bring the four captured assassins back to the Imperial Prison for interrogation, you must pry open their mouths and explain their hiding places in the capital in the past, as well as the location of the main altar of the Vengeance Alliance, and other circumstances."

"Yes."

Ji Yi took the lead and left.

"Ding Jiu, the guards who participated in the escort this time will be upgraded to one level, and they will be rewarded with an additional three months, and those who are killed or injured in battle will be doubled according to the bereavement pension."

"Leave a sergeant and quickly clean up the corpses, blood, etc. on the post road, without leaving any traces of murder, which is a great disrespect to the Buddha."

"The rest of the people will return to the palace immediately with the prince."

"Yes."

Ding Jiu arranged to go as soon as possible.

Yuan Zhi once again said goodbye to Zhixian, Zhiji and Shen Wuhua, as well as Chen Jingnong and his wife, and returned to the palace with Xiuniang.

……

Imperial City, Daming Palace.

At this moment, the news of the crown prince's assassination in the Great Ci'en Temple did not reach the imperial city because it was an absolute seal.

In the square in front of Daming Palace, Queen Cao Feiyan wore a red brocade drag robe, and her white neck surrounded her prosperous beauty, which looked beautiful.

And behind her, all the concubines in the harem.

Some underage princes and princesses followed behind their mothers, and the older ones waited on the side.

Among the princes in Beijing, only King Yuanxuan of Jin, and King Yuanluo of Zhao were independent by the queen's side.

There are also a lot of princesses and concubines, waiting in the back.

Outside the Daming Palace, the lanterns are colorful, and it is more lively than the New Year.

There were more than 100 people standing inside and outside the square, in addition to the master, there were also eunuchs and palace maids.

The princes and princesses will have to line up to enter, and they will congratulate His Majesty the Emperor on his birthday one after another.

Now, they have to wait for two important people to arrive, the crown prince Yuanzhi and the crown princess Xiuniang.

If the crown prince is not there, this procedure for wishing His Majesty the Emperor on his birthday will not be able to go on.

Everyone waited for more than half an hour, but there was no shadow of the prince's chariot.

Cao Feiyan frowned slightly, and said, "What's the matter with the crown prince and the crown princess, it's not yet?" ”

The eunuch in charge of the newly promoted Funing Palace came over and asked in a low voice: "Niangniang, the hour is not early, do you need the slave maid to go to the East Palace to urge?" ”

The queen glanced at the sky, shook her head, and said:

"Wait a minute, such a big matter, the prince generally won't delay, besides, all of this is the crown princess in Zhang Luo, it stands to reason that she should arrive first."

Seeing that the queen said so, how dare the chief eunuch talk nonsense anymore and consciously retreat.

But with the passage of time, the figure of the prince and his wife did not appear for a long time.

At this moment, even the concubines and princesses behind the queen began to whisper.

Now the Jiye Emperor is sick and always lying on the sickbed.

At this time, it is a big deal to celebrate the emperor's birthday and joy.

But the crown prince and the princess of the prison country have been late for so long, which is reasonable, they belong to unfilial descendants, and they are going to be talked about.

And the patience of the queen mother was gradually worn out in waiting.

"King Zhao."

The queen called.

Yuan Luo, who was standing on the side with an expressionless face, immediately walked over when he heard the words, saluted Cao Feiyan respectfully, and said with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes:

"Queen Mother, what do you command?"

"Prince, why haven't they arrived yet?"

You ask me, and who do I ask?

Yuan Luo was stunned for a moment, thinking that the current crown prince and her concubine might have died on the way to the Great Ci'en Temple.

He almost laughed at the thought of this.

But I still held back.

I saw a pretended surprise on his face, "This... This son-in-law doesn't know, do you want the son-in-law to ask? ”

"That's it, you don't have any contact with the prince."

The queen said indifferently:

"If the prince doesn't come again, you and the King of Jin will go in first with the palace later, and greet your father and the emperor on his birthday."

Yuan Luo's eyes lit up.

If the crown prince was still alive, he would not dare to agree to be killed.

But if the revenge alliance's assassination plan succeeds and the crown prince Yuanzhi dies, then it will be of great significance to follow the queen to greet the emperor.

Endured the incomparable excitement in his heart, Yuan Luo was about to open his mouth to speak, and a sharp singing voice came melodiously.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the Crown Princess has arrived!"

Ying Nuo's words almost reached his mouth, but he was blocked back by this sharp singing.

Yuan Luo's eyes widened, and his heart beat wildly.

How can it be?

The strength of the Vengeance Alliance is so bad?

Two assassinations in a row were unsuccessful, even if they were stabbed and mutilated.

Rubbish!

The bragging of the light is a waste!

A bunch of shit-eating garbage can't catch up with the heat!

Yuan Luo was extremely furious in his heart.

At this time, the crown prince, wearing a purple and gold crown and a red dragon robe, walked down from Luan with the dressed princess, and then slowly stepped forward.

They rushed over because they were assassinated and went to the East Palace to change their formal clothes, so they were late.

Yuan Zhi raised his eyes and saw Zhao Wang Yuanluo, who shrunk his head.

You don't have to think much about it to know what this guy is thinking.

"Sons bow to the queen mother!"

"The concubine invites the queen mother Jin An!"

Yuan Zhi and Xiuniang still respectfully greeted Cao Feiyan.

The harem concubines led other princes and princesses, as well as the princess and the princess, all of whom greeted the prince and his wife.

In the face of everyone's greetings, Yuan Zhi did not say a word.

He walked straight up to Yuan Luo and stared at him with squinted eyes.

In a moment of silence, there was a fierce murderous intent boiling in his eyes.

Having just escaped death from the assassination of the Vengeance Alliance, the prince now only wants to kill.

To say that there is no cooperation of the traitors, how could these remnants of the revenge alliance who have been hiding in the cave all day suddenly appear in the Great Ci'en Temple?

Nine times out of ten, this traitor is the third prince Yuan Luo in front of him.

Cao Feiyan was shocked by the prince's murderous eyes.

She caught a glimpse of the prince staring at Yuan Luo, and suddenly rushed up with anger, and said sharply:

"Prince, what's wrong with you today? The big event of asking your father to celebrate his birthday, he was still late, and he came and turned murderously to his royal brother, don't you make a reasonable explanation for this? ”

Compared with the queen mother, King Zhao is much more low-key.

He buried his head without saying a word, wishing to stuff it into the cracks in the ground.
