Chapter 107: What does the prince mean?
The emperor and the crown prince came to the side of the pagoda, and saw three children covered with blades of grass coming out of the flowers on the roadside from a distance.
"It's not ...... Eighth brother?" the prince said in surprise.
When the emperor saw Yu Fenghua, a complicated look flashed in his eyes.
Yu Fenghua was stunned and stood there at a loss.
Ru Xiaonan secretly pulled his clothes.
He then bent his knees and wanted to give a salute, but he did a woman's blessing.
Ru Xiaonan was sad in her heart, she really couldn't understand what the emperor thought, a good son had to be raised as a daughter.
Seeing the women's salute under the Eighth Highness, everyone who followed the emperor was embarrassed.
"What are you doing here?" said the Emperor in displeasure.
didn't wait for Fenghua to speak, Ling Jingxiao on the side said, "This female benefactor got lost, and the little monk sent her back to pass through here, but who knew that she happened to meet His Royal Highness the Eighth Highness and fell into the water." ”
Only then did everyone notice that the clothes on Ling Jingxiao and Yu Fenghua were all soaked with water.
"Come on, send His Royal Highness Back. The emperor said impatiently, as if he didn't want to see this son even one more time.
Soon, someone took Yu Fenghua and left.
The crown prince looked at the large string of Buddhist beads wrapped around Ling Jingxiao's left wrist, "Could this little monk be the senior disciple of the wine monk?"
Ling Jingxiao clasped her hands together and performed a Buddhist salute, which can be regarded as an acknowledgement.
The crown prince looked at Ling Jingxiao for a while, and said to the emperor: "The little girl was once imprisoned by the puppeteer, and now she is in abnormal health, it is better to let the monk take a look, if there is something ominous that touches her...... It's good to ask the monk to help her get rid of it, so that Lord Shaoqing can rest assured. ”
Since the prince appeared, Ru Xiaonan had been wary of him for a long time, and when she heard this, she moved behind Ling Jingxiao.
You obviously just want me to be pointed out as a monster by a high monk in public, and then come to deal with me.
The emperor thought for a moment, "It's okay, it's just...... Why hasn't Qing Moyan arrived yet?"
Originally, Qing Moyan first asked the order to leave to look for Ru Xiaonan, but now everyone has found it, but Qing Moyan is gone.
At this moment, an inner servant hurriedly came over, "Your Majesty, the Criminal Department lost a piece of evidence over there, and temporarily invited Lord Shaoqing over, so Shaoqing entrusted the servant to pass on a message, saying that if Miss Ru is found, he will trouble the emperor to take care of it first." ”
As soon as these words came out, all the ministers secretly took a breath.
Shaoqing is so big, he actually directly named the emperor to take care of the child for him, which is too arrogant.
Who knew that the emperor didn't care when he heard this, but asked, "What kind of evidence is missing?"
“...... It was a doll, and somehow, it was gone. ”
The emperor's face instantly turned cold.
The crown prince smiled, "Father doesn't need to worry, since Shaoqing has taken over, he will take care of the matter, let's take the little girl to meet the monk quickly." ”
In the puppet master case, in the end, they failed to catch the puppet master himself, and also injured five important officials of the criminal department, and even the second prince was seriously injured.
It's a lot of trouble.
"It's also good to go to the monks and get good fortune. One of the ministers whispered.
The Emperor nodded, "In that case, let's go together." ”
Ru Xiaonan stood still and did not move.
God knows she's tempted to run away!
"You don't need to ask the little monk's master to see it. Ling Jingxiao said suddenly, "Her body is very clean." ”
Ru Xiaonan was stunned.
Isn't it true that a monk can't lie? He would say that she would be in front of so many people......
Ling Jingxiao glanced at her casually.
Suddenly, Ru Xiaonan realized.
He just said that she was clean, and he didn't say that she wasn't a youkai.
The crown prince originally wanted to say something, but the emperor was obviously not thinking about it, so he waved his hand casually and said, "In this case, I will take her back first." ”
Ru Xiaonan was secretly happy in her heart, and hurriedly leaned over and followed closely behind the emperor.
"Erchen also thinks this child is very cute, it is better to let Erchen take her, so as to save her trouble for her father. The prince proposed.
"Don't!" Ru Xiaonan didn't want to blurt out, "I don't want to go with you." ”
With such a clear refusal attitude, the emperor asked curiously: "Why don't you want to go with the crown prince?"
"Grandpa the Emperor has delicious dim sum there!" Ru Xiaonan knew where her strengths were, and when she sold them, she was unstoppable.
The emperor's heart trembled inexplicably when she was called "grandpa".
Although he also has a grandson now, but those children are not cautious when they see him, even if they are his favorite grandchildren who see him, they have to kowtow in a proper manner, not to mention being coquettish in front of him, and even if they say a few more words, they will be warned by the nurse next to them.
Ru Xiaonan's title was obviously overstepped, but it was very popular with the emperor, and he immediately laughed out loud, "Even if you have eyesight, the dim sum I have there is the best in this palace, just follow me." ”
When Qing Moyan rushed back to the inner hall, he heard the emperor's hearty laughter from inside as soon as he walked outside the hall gate.
"You girl......" The emperor sat behind his desk, laughing and pointing to Ru Xiaonan, who was sitting on the chair opposite, "If I keep you in the palace for a few more days, won't you eat me poor?"
Ru Xiaonan stuck out her tongue and put down the snack in her hand: "Then I'll eat less." ”
Qing Moyan saw that Ru Xiaonan's expression was as usual, so she relieved her heart and came in to salute the emperor first.
The emperor smiled and asked about the loss of evidence from the Criminal Department, and Qing Moyan told him about it.
The piece of evidence that was lost was the puppet of a thousand deaths.
The emperor frowned, and seeing that there were no outsiders around, Qing Moyan told the emperor what the puppeteer said before disappearing that day.
"His target is actually the second prince?" the emperor was greatly surprised.
Wechen thought...... Could there be someone else behind all this, first let the emperor suspect the second prince, and then recalled him back to the palace, and now the second prince is seriously injured, so naturally he can't testify with the criminal department. ”
The emperor was silent, and suddenly slapped the Longshu case for a while, "This case is back for retrial!"
Qing Moyan was about to receive the order, and an inner attendant hurriedly ran into the hall.
"Your Majesty, Second ...... The second prince he ...... It's gone!"
The emperor sat there, his whole body stiff.
Qing Moyan sighed secretly, they were still a step late.
When leaving the palace, it was already curfew time in the city, and Qing Moyan successfully walked out of the palace gate with the waist card given by the emperor.
On the way, Ru Xiaonan told Qing Moyan what happened in the palace.
Especially when she mentioned the white mink, Qingmoyan's expression was extremely serious, "He wants to take you to see the monk?"
"Hmm. Ru Xiaonan nodded her little head, "I always feel that he seems to know my identity." ”
Qing Moyan's brows tightened.
Regarding Ru Xiaonan's affairs, he has always blocked the news, and he doesn't believe that the prince will find anything.
The carriage suddenly jolted violently, and Ru Xiaonan was shaken and almost fell into the carriage.
Fortunately, Qing Moyan grabbed her arm and hugged her.
"What man!" Xuanyu shouted from outside the carriage.
Qing Moyan lifted the curtain of the car, only to see a black figure walking in the quiet street in front of him, his clothes were blown up by the night wind, and he looked empty, as if his body was thin and only a skeleton remained.
