Chapter 55: The Search of the Palace
Concubine Rong lifted the clothes on her wrist, revealing a striking wound on her wrist, and Yin Yin's blood oozed from the wound.
"What's wrong with Concubine Ai?" the emperor walked up to Concubine Rong with a distressed face, "Quickly pass the imperial doctor." The two guards hurried out, and the hall was in chaos.
The prince saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart, this was obviously a wound deliberately made by Concubine Rong, the purpose was to cover up her knife wound, but the emperor didn't care so much, he looked at her wound, where it looked like a knife wound.
"Your Majesty, you still need to find out the cause of Concubine Rong's injury. The prince specially emphasized.
The emperor listened to the words of the prince and calmed down a little, and the imperial doctor in the palace also hurried over at this time.
"How did Concubine Rong's injuries go?" the emperor asked with a concerned look at Concubine Rong.
"It was the concubine who accidentally tripped over the stove in the morning and fell to the ground, and the charcoal fire in the furnace splashed on the concubine's arm, and the concubine was burned. ”
"In this way, Concubine Rong's injury was burned by charcoal, and Master Li should treat Concubine Rong well. ”
The imperial doctor, Lord Li, knew what the prince meant, but in front of the emperor, he could only check it carefully and tell the truth.
He carefully inspected Concubine Rong's wound, the wound had blisters of different sizes, the blister wall was thin, containing yellow clear liquid, the blisters had broken in some places, and the blood was oozing out with yellow liquid, which was indeed burned, but when he cleaned the wound, he found that there was a wound on it, and that wound, the wound was neat and deep, and it was not a burn at first glance.
The imperial doctor looked at the frowning emperor, and fell to his knees in fright.
Concubine Rong stretched out her arm again at this time, and a smile appeared on her face: "It's okay, Master Li, you have to heal carefully." ”
The imperial doctor still had so much to think about, he hurriedly took out the medicine foam in the medicine box to treat burns, sprinkled it on Concubine Rong's wound, and then wrapped it in gauze.
"Master Li, Concubine Rong's wound is a burn, is there any other wound besides the burn?" asked the prince.
"Back to the prince's words, it is indeed a burn. ”
"But there are other wounds?" asked one of His Highness's close associates of the prince's minister.
The imperial doctor raised his head and glanced at Concubine Rong, who was staring at him with a serious expression, "There are no other wounds." Master Li said.
"Lord Li may be responsible for what he said? If it is a bully, it will be a capital crime! Lord Li can think clearly before speaking. ”
The imperial doctor knelt on the ground, looked at the prince with a frightened expression, and then looked at Concubine Rong, there was no one he could provoke, he was caught in the middle and was in a dilemma.
Concubine Rong saw his hesitation, the prince was aggressive, I am afraid that I will not give up if I don't get the result today, she untied the gauze that had just been wrapped, and at the same time, she quietly pressed down with a finger towards the position of the wound, and a piercing pain hit instantly, Concubine Rong endured the pain and continued to spread the gauze, and the blood oozing from the surface of the wound was completely stained red, and it was impossible to tell what caused the wound.
"The prince is so worried, then the palace will let the prince see it himself. Concubine Rong said and stretched out her arm in the direction of the prince, only to see a bloody patch on it, where could she still see something clearly.
"Can the prince see clearly?" asked Concubine Rong.
The prince bent down and said to the emperor: "Concubine Rong's wound today is too much of a coincidence, in order to prove Concubine Rong's innocence, the emperor needs to send someone to search Yonghua Palace." ”
"Lord Wang, you still don't believe me. Concubine Rong said word by word with anger.
"The minister doesn't dare, the minister is to prove the innocence of the minister, don't misunderstand the minister's kindness. ”
"Good intentions?" Concubine Rong walked to the center of the main hall, turned her head and said to the prince: "The prince came with these three people prepared today, and every word is aimed at the palace, how should the palace understand the prince's kindness?"
The prince listened to Concubine Rong's words, took a step forward and looked directly at Concubine Rong and said: "My son has a good nature and never interferes in the affairs of officialdom, this is something that all the ministers here know, how could he withhold disaster relief money for no reason, the old minister has carefully inquired, he was dizzy at the time, as if he was controlled, and he has no memory of what he did, and my son Offshore had a trip to the palace before the incident, according to him, he had a chance encounter with Concubine Rong in the palace corridor. ”
"What does this mean, is it the problem of Concubine Rong when he meets Concubine Rong? Didn't the second prince meet others?" asked a minister of His Royal Highness.
"And Wu Changjun, the guard of my palace. The prince continued: "Before the incident, Concubine Rong sent someone to call An'er, Wu Changjun had accompanied An'er into the palace, and after coming back, Wu Changjun behaved abnormally, talking nonsense, after several people from the Phantom Sect came to check, they decided that Wu Changjun was in illusion, and Wu Changjun had only been in contact with the people in those days, An'er and Concubine Rong, An'er and Changjun had all been in illusion, and the minister would not instruct the minister's guards to frame the old minister, so the minister had reason to suspect that it was Concubine Rong's illusion. ”
"The prince really lifted the palace, hurriedly side, and there is a maid on the side, how does the palace cast spells? The prince said that the palace cast spells on Wu Changjun, but the palace summoned the second son that day, how did the palace know that Wu Changjun would come, and the shore was with Wu Changjun at that time, and the palace did not summon Wu Changjun alone, may I ask if your son has ever seen the palace cast a spell? ”
"Does Concubine Rong cast a spell, does she have any hidden evil things, please ask the disciples of the Phantom Sect to go and investigate, can Concubine Rong dare to let a few people go and check?"
Concubine Rong looked at the prince without speaking, and His Royal Highness's ministers, at the signal of the prince, knelt on the ground and begged the emperor to search Yonghua Palace.
"Please ask the emperor to order a search of Yonghua Palace!"
"Please decree the emperor......"
"Please decree the emperor......"
Li Heng looked at the minister kneeling on the ground and Concubine Rong beside him, and became suspicious, he knew something about the offshore, he was quiet by nature, not a greedy person, if it was really Concubine Rong's doing, leaving such a woman in the palace would inevitably endanger him leaving the country.
"Come on, search Yonghua Palace. ”
Concubine Rong looked at the emperor with an indifferent face in the distance, and sighed in her heart, the pity in his eyes had disappeared, and now he was just a ruthless emperor.
"The Emperor's ......"
She called out to the emperor who was walking out, he didn't look back at her, but the prince's face was proud, no one in the hall paid attention to Concubine Rong anymore, everyone followed the emperor and hurriedly walked in the direction of Yonghua Palace, and Concubine Rong had to follow.
Everyone came to the gate of Yonghua Palace, and the guards were ordered by the emperor to enter the palace to search, but after searching for a long time, they did not find what the Phantom Sect said.
Concubine Rong looked at the emperor, and the emperor looked at the prince.
"Niang Niang didn't hide things. The prince said.
"Is this going to search my entire palace?" said the emperor angrily.
"I don't dare. ”
"It's good if you don't dare. After the emperor finished speaking, he brushed his sleeves and left, and everyone quickly dispersed, and the prince could only leave Yonghua Palace with a few people in Baizhu, Concubine Rong looked at the back of the prince leaving and laughed coldly.
"Fortunately, the mother was prepared. Yue'er walked up to Concubine Rong and said to Concubine Rong.
"Yue'er is used to making fun of her sister. Concubine Rong reached out and pinched Yue'er's nose and said.
"But sister, the people of the Phantom Sect are in the Liguo City, and we are afraid that we will not be able to use the Phantom Fan in the future. ”
"Then don't use it for the time being, Liqing is dead, and my revenge can be regarded as revenge. Concubine Rong said and walked into the palace, she took down a painting in the wing room on the left, and there was a tablet enshrined behind the painting, she took out the tablet and wiped it carefully with a handkerchief.
"Mother. "I've finally avenged you.
"Mother, I am now a concubine in the palace, no one can bully us anymore, mother ......" Concubine Rong said and cried in a low voice on her mother's tablet.
She has all the glory, wealth, and power, but she has lost both the people who love her and the people she loves, and she has reached the apex of her life, but she has become a lonely person.
"Mother......" she murmured with her head down.
"Sister......" Yue'er comforted her softly beside her.
"My sister still has to quickly retrieve the phantom fan, if it is discovered by the emperor, I am afraid that it will cause a big disaster. ”
Concubine Rong listened to Yue'er's words, got up and put the tablet back in its place, and she walked out of Yonghua Palace and went straight to the emperor's study.
The guards at the door stopped him, and Concubine Rong took out the waist card in her arms and handed it to the guard, "The emperor ordered me to take samples." ”
The guard saw the waist card let Concubine Rong enter the study, Concubine Rong found the phantom fan in the study, she took it into her arms, and walked out of the study as if nothing happened.
Fortunately, she was on guard, stole the emperor's waist card, and secretly put the phantom fan into the study while the emperor was not paying attention.
The emperor came to Yonghua Palace later with many rewards.
"Concubine Rong has been wronged today, this is compensation for Concubine Rong. As soon as the emperor waved his hand, the maid and the eunuch carried many things into the Yonghua Palace.
"Concubines are not aggrieved. Concubine Rong said and leaned on the emperor's arms, and the emperor hugged her with a loving face.
And the palace, the prince was furious, he instigated so many ministers to play the emperor, and even found people from the Phantom Sect, but in the end he found nothing.
That woman was really as Qing'er said, she was extremely cunning, and she blamed herself for not being able to bear it for a while, but she brought such a big disaster to the palace.
Qing'er had just been buried, his bones were not cold, he must avenge her, the prince walked into the study, and handed over the letter to the offshore.
"You personally take this letter to the barracks outside the city and give it to your eldest brother. After speaking, the prince sent a team of guards to protect the shore.
As soon as he walked out of the city, he encountered the Assassins, and under the full support of the guards, he took his father's letters, and found Lifeng's military camp with great difficulty, and a large number of soldiers were stationed in the woods outside the city, and stumbled into the military camp from the shore.
"Big brother, sister, she's dead...... " Offshore sobbed silently.
Li Feng hugged the shore: "Big brother will definitely avenge Qing'er!"
