Chapter 31: You won't want Yin Yin to be punished on my behalf, will you?
When the birthday banquet was over three rounds, the old emperor got up tremblingly and asked the old eunuch to help him walk to the apse.
In addition to the clean room that can change clothes in the apse of the prayer hall, there is also a back door, which can lead directly to the purple bamboo forest in the imperial garden, where it is quiet, and there is also the guard of the imperial forest army, and there is only one door to enter and exit.
Xiao Jingqing has been paying attention to the movements above, and when he saw the old emperor leaving the table, he immediately raised his head and said to King Lu, "Daddy, I want to change my clothes." ”
"Well, Qi Wu ......" King Lu subconsciously wanted to let Qi Wu take Jingqing there, but halfway through his words, he suddenly noticed the seeming gaze of the prince opposite.
King Lu's sword eyebrows twisted slightly, and he subconsciously protected the little boy in his arms.
"Lord Wang, Qi Wu went to the Inner Court Division to ask Yin Yin for Jin Yuyan." When Princess Lu heard this, she reminded softly beside her.
King Lu nodded, he patted the little princess, "Le Ran, this palace is not as good as the palace, this king should take Jingqing there." If anyone comes to make a toast, you can say that the king will come back later. ”
Princess Lu responded, although she was very frightened to stay alone at this palace banquet, but her expression still brought support.
Xiao Jingqing, the only frail and vulnerable concubine of King Lu, is more prone to "mistakes" than her, a princess with no background.
King Lu saw the princess's expression in his eyes, smiled gently and comfortingly, comforted her a few words, and took the little boy to the side hall behind him.
There is also a side door in the side hall, which can be walked out from the prayer hall, and the outside is the imperial garden.
After King Lu took Xiao Jingqing to change his clothes, he was about to carry him back to the main hall, but the little boy suddenly ran out of the side door.
"Jingqing, where are you going?" King Lu looked at his son who had run away in surprise and followed him out with a puzzled expression.
On the hexagonal stone road outside the side hall, the little boy was still running backwards along the way, without the slightest intention of stopping.
King Lu looked around, and saw that there was no one else, his eyebrows frowned, and he quickly followed, his voice was slightly deep, with a hint of connivance, "Jingqing, you can't run around in the palace." ”
Xiao Jingqing's steps did not stop at all, and he took King Lu all the way to the entrance of the Purple Bamboo Forest, where the people in front of the emperor were guarding.
When King Lu saw the person at the door from afar, his face suddenly became serious, and he hurriedly stepped forward and picked up his little cub.
"Jingqing, you can't run over there, it will disturb your imperial grandfather."
Xiao Jingqing sat in his father's generous and warm arms, and there was no surprise on his pale little face.
With his father's tall and majestic figure, if he really wants to carry him, he can catch up with him in two steps.
Xiao Niangbao turned his head to look at the lush bamboo forest behind him, a chuckle flashed in his bright and dark eyes, and he said to his father confidently, "I'm here to find the emperor's grandfather." ”
"Huh?" King Lu, who was about to leave with his son, paused at his feet and looked at the innocent jade white baby in his arms suspiciously.
The little boy explained without blushing and without a heartbeat,
"I saw that the inner prisoner who was sent by the emperor's grandfather to investigate the cause of Gonggong Yin's death came back, so I wanted to ask that Gonggong Yin, was he really killed by me?"
A bag of milk in a serious child's voice, who can blame him for the death of a generation of powerful eunuchs?
Even the guards in the background listened to it, and their faces flashed with emotion.
King Lu looked at his younger son with a sincere face, opened his mouth, and didn't know what to say for a while.
As soon as Xiao Jingqing saw his father's honest and gentle eyes, he knew that he was thinking of words to fool him, and immediately tried to learn the baby's milk tone and added, "Daddy, don't you want to know?" ”
King Lu opened his mouth again and was speechless.
At this time, a little eunuch came out of the bamboo forest and came to the father and son in a puff of smoke.
"His Royal Highness King Lu, the emperor summoned you to bring the little prince in."
King Lu's eyelids jumped, but he was able to give his little cub an answer happily, "Well, Daddy also wants to know." ”
Xiao Jingqing smiled brightly, and there was success hidden in his dark eyes.
King Lu followed the little eunuch into the bamboo forest, and the old emperor was pacing not far from the palace road, no wonder he could hear their conversation.
"The son of the emperor greets his father."
"Grandson greets the emperor's grandfather."
When Emperor Cheng De saw the little doll that looked like he was waving at him, he smiled happily and raised his hand to caress Xiao Jingqing's little head lovingly, "Okay, get up." ”
After King Lu got up, he was about to tell them the reason for coming, but the old emperor waved his hand to stop him, "I heard it." ”
Emperor Chengde looked at King Shanglu's burning gaze, laughed twice, and patted King Lu's shoulder, "Second child, this kid of yours is really a blessed general, and if you make a fuss, you will solve my big trouble." ”
The old emperor had a smile on his wrinkled face, and it could be seen that he was indeed very happy.
King Lu's heart shook for a moment, and he understood that this meant that Yin Jiang's death was not the hand of others.
Ming Fu also added with a smile, "Xiao Shizi's stone hit lightly, and it hit Yin Jiang twice in total, but once it hit his death hole impartially, it can really be described as a cycle of heavenly dao, and retribution is not happy!" ”
King Lu looked at the same smiling faces of the old emperor and the old eunuch, and glanced at his youngest son with mixed feelings.
Xiao Jingqing didn't care about the result of his "heart-to-heart", but frowned and said worriedly,
"Huh? Will His Royal Highness the Crown Prince punish me? I saw that the three county lords of the East Palace deliberately led Yin Yin over after he finished talking to His Royal Highness the Prince, Yin Yin will not be punished by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for me, right? ”
