Chapter Forty-Eight: Who Is It?
By the time Zhao Guangyuan arrived quickly, the lake was already full of people.
He was about to step forward to check, the crowd suddenly separated again, and an entourage had already pushed through the crowd, and a guard rushed out of it with Guangji in his arms.
The steward of the Jin Palace's mansion led the way, "Quickly, quickly send it to the house, please ask the imperial doctor to diagnose and treat!" ”
The crowd of onlookers all followed, first, there was a lively look, and second, the sixteenth prince had an accident, afraid that the queen mother and the concubine would ask about something, so they all followed.
Zhao Guangyuan saw that the guard rushed out of it with someone in his arms, and looked at it, isn't the wet child in his arms Guangji. His brow furrowed slightly.
When he left at that time, he saw that Guangji was surrounded by people, there were eunuchs and palace maids, so he left with confidence, why did he leave only a moment, and Guangji fell into the water?
The footsteps also followed.
Only then did he see that although Guangji was in a coma, he should be alive and well. Otherwise, he didn't know how to blame himself in his heart.
followed the crowd to a courtyard, and saw that the courtyard was full of people outside the courtyard, so he didn't come over, but only stood far away to inquire about Guangji's news.
When I heard the news from inside, it was said that after the diagnosis and treatment of the imperial doctor, although the sixteenth prince was in water, it was fine, and his hanging heart was put down.
Turning to leave, he was stopped.
"His Royal Highness the King of Yue, the queen is invited."
Zhao Guangyuan glanced at the maid who was speaking, nodded, and followed her to the flower hall.
When he arrived, there were already some people sitting inside. In the middle, the queen mother and Liu Guifei sat on the left and right. He saluted and sat down at the front. I sat down, and some people came one after another.
Zhao Guangyuan was silent. Just stared at the tea served by the servant, as if the patterns on the cups of the Jin Wangfu were particularly beautiful.
"King Yue, have you ever been to Moon Lake?"
Zhao Guangyuan sneered in his heart, was he really coming for himself? Nodding to the queen above, "Yes, this king is standing by the lake." Whether it's Moon Lake or Yang Lake or something, this king doesn't know. ”
"There is only one moon lake in my son's house." Liu Guifei added.
"That's it." Zhao Guangyuan said lightly.
Seeing that King Yue's attitude was cold, the queen thought that the prince would still win him over, and she didn't want to offend him, so she explained: "King Yue is not idle in this palace. Sixteen is the emperor's youngest prince, he was born and his mother is gone, not to mention me, even the emperor can't help but take care of him a little more on weekdays. Today, I got the permission of the palace to leave the palace, and now that something has happened, the palace wants to ask a clear question. ”
"The queen is right." Zhao Guangyuan's voice was cold. I don't say that I understand and understand, and I don't have the resentment of being called for questioning.
The queen also didn't believe that Sixteen's overboard had anything to do with him, how stupid it would be to plot against a four-year-old royal brother. And choose this occasion.
I'm afraid that I have recruited someone else's way.
His eyes fell on the two palace maids and eunuchs who were accompanied by the sixteenth prince, "You two are following Sixteen, how can he fall into the water, and he is not recruited from the truth!" ”
The two palace maids and eunuchs trembled with fright, knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing and begging for mercy: "Queen Mother, spare your life!" It was the sixteenth prince who said that he wanted to feed the fish by the lake and asked the slave to get fish food, and when the slave saw that the small pillar was next to him, he thought that it would be okay to walk away, so the slave and maid went to get fish food. ”
The head called Xiaozhu banged, and he spoke incoherently, "The queen mother Mingcha, after Xiangxing left, the sixteenth prince said that he wanted to fish with a fishing rod, and the small one saw that there was no one by the lake, and he didn't plan to leave, but the sixteenth prince begged bitterly, saying that it was difficult for him to get out of the palace, and there was no such a big lake to play in the palace, and he said that he was going back to the palace soon, and the slave felt sorry for His Royal Highness, so he softened......"
The queen slapped her hand on the table, "So you can rest assured that sixteen people will stay by the lake!" ”
The little pillar shook his whole body and lowered his head, "Not really." Yes, it was His Royal Highness who said that King Yue was also there, and the slave was relieved to get the fishing rod. ”
Zhao Guangyuan's gaze skimmed lightly and fell on the little eunuch called Xiaozhu. "Is Guangji saying that this king is also here?"
The little eunuch didn't dare to raise his head, "Yes, it was His Royal Highness who said that King Yue was also there." And many people saw His Highness by the lake, so the minions were relieved to leave. ”
Many people have seen this king by the lake? There were a lot of people who did see it. And some people came up to the king. Zhao Guangyuan suddenly tugged at the corner of his mouth and laughed.
The queen turned her head and looked, "King Yue, were you really by the lake at that time?" Seeing that he could still laugh at this time, the queen's brows furrowed.
Zhao Guangyuan nodded, "Indeed." The king also said a few words to Guangji. ”
"And then?"
"Later? What happened later, Niangniang wanted to ask if it was the Guangji water pushed by this king, right? ”
"No way!" Before the queen could speak, a strong voice came from outside the main hall.
Zhao Guangyuan turned his head and saw Jiang Xiangda stepping into the flower hall. I can't help but feel a warmth in my heart.
Jiang Xiang glanced at him, nodded at him, and saluted to the Empress and Concubine Liu again, "His Royal Highness King Yue would never do such a thing." And for what purpose? ”
The King of Chu, who was sitting on the right side, said idly: "What is the purpose, of course, only the King of Yue knows." Could it be that Lord Jiang is a roundworm in King Yue's belly, you know what he wants to do? ”
"You!"
"King Chu, on a good day, it's not rude to say that roundworms are not roundworms." Prince Qi said as he stepped in.
"Imperial sister-in-law." Prince Qi greeted the queen and walked up to the king of Chu.
Seeing Prince Qi looking at himself, the King of Chu was stunned, and then reacted, got up and gave up a position. The people behind also let go, and the king of Chu was just about to sit down, when he saw that his imperial brother also followed into the flower hall, and gave up a place for the king of Qin.
The crown prince and the king of Jin, who came with the king of Qin, walked to Zhao Guangyuan's side, the prince sat in Zhao Guangyuan's position, and the king of Jin sat in the first position under Zhao Guangyuan. And Jiang Xiang also found a place to sit down on this side.
As soon as the King of Jin sat down, he replied to the King of Chu, "Brother Four Emperors, sixteen fell into the water, we are all distressed, but you can't catch people and bite them." It is also said that the Seventh Emperor Brother pushed Xiao Sixteen into the water, isn't it ridiculous. ”
The king of Chu leaned back in his chair, "It's ridiculous, who knows." Isn't there an old saying that 'knowing the face of a person does not know the heart'? ”
"There is such an old saying, but why did the Seven Emperor Brothers push sixteen into the water? It can't be for no reason, right? ”
"Who knows. If you want to know, you'll have to ask King Yue. ”
"Are you convinced that it was the Seventh Emperor Brother who did it?"
"It's not that I insist on it, it's that there were only Xiao Sixteen and King Yue by the lake at that time. Many people saw it, and King Yue wanted to prove himself, so he naturally had to explain one or two convincing reasons. ”
"You are dark in your heart, and everything you look at is dark! The Seventh Emperor Brother returned to Beijing after a ten-year absence, and only then did he see Sixteen for the first time, and what kind of grudge can he have with Sixteen! Want to make a move on Little Sixteen? And Xiao Sixteen is also very close to the Seven Emperor Brothers, and the Seven Emperor Brothers also like him very much, and they hugged him, this is the king himself! You said that the Seventh Emperor Brother pushed sixteen into the water, is this a fool's dream! ”
The prince saw that the two of them were arguing, and saw that King Yue looked like he had nothing to do with himself, and he didn't believe that he pushed the sixteenth, and said to the king of Chu: "The fourth brother can't talk nonsense. The seventh emperor brother has only seen sixteen for the first time, and it is too late to like it, how can he do such a thing. ”
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said no, then no." The king of Chu looked like a bachelor.
King Qin glanced at him, "Shut up." ”
The king of Chu stopped talking.
The queen looked here and the other, and her eyes fell on the two palace maids and eunuchs kneeling on the ground. A number of more people were summoned to inquire about the situation.
There are also noble girls and several other noblewomen who handed poems to Zhao Guangyuan to testify that they did see King Yue and His Royal Highness by the lake. There were only two highnesses by the lake, and the palace maids and eunuchs were all standing far away.
That is, standing in the distance, and seeing that there was no entourage around King Yue, several noble ladies relied on their courage to avoid people approaching.
I don't know that King Yue doesn't understand the amorous feelings, and he doesn't give one when he sees it. It's infuriating.
He also called the people from the Jin Palace's mansion to ask, and they all said that no one had ever approached the lake......
This is strange, King Yue said that it was not him, and the eunuch and palace maid were not present, could it be that Xiao Sixteen fell by himself?
I heard that Xiao Sixteen woke up, and the queen asked someone to ask again, although Xiao Sixteen was frightened, but he was still conscious, and said to the visitor: "I didn't fall by myself, someone pushed me." ”
Ask who pushed it, shake your head. "He's behind Sixteen, Sixteen doesn't see it."
"Was it pushed by His Royal Highness King Yue?"
"It's not! Not really. The Seven Emperor Brothers were all gone at that time. "It's not the Seven Emperor Brothers.
King Yue is gone, where has he gone? The lake was full of guests, and I had never seen King Yue walking towards the crowd. So His Royal Highness said that King Yue was not present, and no one proved it.
Everyone only remembers the figure of King Yue going to the lake, and some people have caught a glimpse of him by the lake. He was even seen talking with His Royal Highness by the lake.
The King of Chu glanced at the King of Jin and the crown prince who had proved the Qingming for the King of Yue, and sneered in his heart.
Not only does the prince want to win over the seventh, but Liu Guifei is afraid that she wants to win over the seventh even more. The prince snatched the position of the seventh brother, and no matter how generous the seventh became, it was impossible not to have a little bit of mustard for the prince.
Himself and his brother, the seventh child will not choose, then there will be only one king of Jin. I haven't seen whether King Jin himself has the idea of competing for the throne, but Liu Guifei is ambitious and looks like she wants to reap the benefits.
The king of Chu didn't want others to pick up ready-made cheap. People who can't be won over by themselves and their brothers, don't think about the crown prince and the king of Jin.
The father likes to praise the prince's brothers, friends and brothers in front of the minister, benevolence and benevolence, and the king of Yue is a person who pushes the little brother into the water, if the prince woos such a person, the father is afraid that he will not like it.
The old god of the King of Chu leaned on the back of the chair, and before the smile on his lips fell, he received a leisurely glance from Zhao Guangyuan.
A sense of oppression hit, and there was a kind of coldness in that gaze that made people feel helpless.
King Chu shuddered, tried his best to stabilize his mind, and raised his eyebrows at Zhao Guangyuan.
Zhao Guangyuan's face was expressionless, and he didn't look away, only looked at him lightly. After the king of Chu forced himself to calm down, he also met his gaze. Even if Lao Qi knew that he sent someone to do it, what if he could still find evidence?
Zhao Guangyuan didn't have a clue at first, but after a few rounds of questions summoned by the queen, he also understood.
