Princess Zhenmin grew up with the emperor, and he knew best that Zhenmin was a woman who grew up in a real boudoir. She was good at knitting, chess, calligraphy and painting, calligraphy and writing, but she was not good at martial arts.
I learned some physical fitness skills from a female instructor, but I am not good at fighting and killing people.
But Su Rong was obviously different. Su Rong was not only good at martial arts, but also good at medicine. Since he was taught by Xie Yuan, he must have dabbled in writing and writing.
Like last night, the four groups of killers, if it were an ordinary daughter's family, would have been frightened to tears, and the Anshen Tang would probably have been a shock, but Su Rong was different. She returned to the capital safely with blood all over her body. The generals who guarded the city
The soldiers were all shocked.
He wanted to see Su Rong, but he still held back, "How is Zhou Gu?"
"The fever has subsided. I'll go to court, but he hasn't woken up yet." Yan echoed.
The emperor nodded. If it had been in the past when Yan Huisheng ran to the Duke Protector's Mansion in the middle of the night, he would have reprimanded him, but now he just said, "It's good to get rid of the fever. Where is Ye Guixue? Didn't you go back to the capital with her?"
Yan Hui shook her head, "She rode back to the capital on the horse of Second Young Master Ye, who is still at the Great Buddha Temple."
While he was talking, Eunuch Yu came back with the book, "Your Majesty, I found it. Yes, it belongs to Concubine Xian. You gave it to Concubine Xian three years ago."
The emperor had experienced the Li concubine incident and was no longer so angry. "Have you checked the lost records?"
Eunuch Yu shook his head, "I haven't checked yet. In the past three years, not many things have been lost in the palace. I will go look for them now."
Eunuch Yu should be.
The emperor didn't say much to her and only waved to her.
The emperor stared at her after hearing this, "Are you sure?"
King Ruian came out of the Protector's Mansion yesterday. He originally planned to go to the Great Buddha Temple in person to meet Su Rong, but before he left, he heard someone reported that Concubine Li's natal family had suspicions of contact with Feng Si.
We could only go and interrogate the people from Li's natal family first. This delay lasted till midnight.
Not long after, Concubine Xian was invited to the royal study by Eunuch Yu to pay tribute to the emperor. She was the concubine of the eldest prince. In recent years, although the emperor suppressed the prince and supported the eldest prince and the second prince, she and Concubine De were very happy in the palace.
It was to gain face, and she was very dignified in front of the emperor. Even the queen was not favored by the emperor because of the prince, so she had to retreat. The status of the two of them was comparable to that of the precious concubine, but the precious concubine had no children, so the two
These past few years have been great.
Concubine Xian suddenly looked at the prince. Because apart from the emperor, only Yan Huisheng was standing here. She immediately asked: "Prince, is it you? Are you trying to kill..."
Concubine Xian's face turned pale, "Your Majesty, how did you get this Huadian?"
Sure enough, the emperor sent someone to summon him to the palace early in the morning.
The implication is that if Gu Ruo wanted to harm you, he would not harm a palace concubine with something like a woman's money.
Concubine Xian's face changed slightly. Looking at the emperor's expression, she felt a little panicked and shook her head, "I don't know, I don't know where this flower...your majesty came from?"
The concubine Xian knelt down and said, "Your Majesty." Then she glanced at Yan Hui and said, "Prince."
The emperor said with a straight face, "What do you think? The things I reward you should naturally be in your hands, how come they are in my hands?"
The emperor took a deep breath. Things happened one after another to the palace concubines, involving the fourth prince and the eldest prince. The comb was found yesterday and everyone alive in the Imperial Guard saw it. The emperor had secretly asked people to investigate. Zhou Gu could not do anything false.
Today, only people from the East Palace found this flower.
In the middle of the night, Zhou Gu developed a high fever, and there was a lot of commotion in the Protector's Palace. King Ruian naturally heard about it, and when he heard that Su Rong had returned to the capital, he no longer planned to go to the Great Buddha Temple in person, but planned to send Xie Lin there. But in the middle of the night,
Yes, he naturally didn't trust his son and simply waited for dawn before sending him off.
He had a vague feeling that the emperor would come to him again, and he was afraid that he would also hand over this case to him. After all, they were all here for Su Rong, and the two cases in his hands could be considered one together.
major case.
After taking Concubine Xian down, the emperor asked Yan Huisheng, "What do you think of this matter?"
Eunuch Yu responded and went immediately.
Concubine Xian cried in her heart, "Your Majesty, you have given me many gifts. If I wear it for a while, I will put it into the private treasury. I vaguely remembered that this flower necklace seems to be for people.
It was put into the private treasury. How could it... appear in your hands?"
Yan Hui returned the favor, "Your Majesty, the Concubine."
But because King Ruian was responsible for investigating the case, Su Rong was invited back to the capital by the Protectorate in the middle of the night, and she suffered several waves of assassinations. The prince sent people to leave the capital to deal with the corpses, etc., and he got the news immediately.
"Concubine, I'm sure." Concubine Xian nodded.
"You don't know?" The emperor narrowed his eyes, "How can you not know what I have given you as a reward?"
King Ruian could only put down what he was doing and hurried into the palace.
Concubine Xian immediately stopped talking. She had no proof and no evidence. She couldn't open her mouth to say that it was just a matter of urgency, but she had a gut feeling that this matter was related to Yan Huisheng.
Concubine Xian shouted several times, but when she saw that the emperor was unmoved, she had no choice but to be dragged and dragged down by others. Like Concubine Li, she was taken into custody alone.
The emperor did not answer her words.
"When someone comes, please take the concubine down first and keep her under custody. No one is allowed to visit her without my permission," the emperor ordered.
The emperor said, "Ping Shen." He took the flower bud and asked her, "I want to ask you, do you recognize this thing?"
He almost took a breath, thinking that this matter was getting bigger and bigger.
However, due to Yan Huisheng's character, although the emperor did not want to admit his suspicions, he knew in his heart that he would not use such means to deal with the concubine Xian and the eldest prince.
He shouted outside, "Come here, King Xuan Ruian has come to see me."
Concubine Xian looked at the things in the emperor's hands, nodded, and asked strangely: "Why did the flower mother-in-law you gave to me as a reward come back to you?"
Someone thought so and went immediately.
The emperor ordered Eunuch Yu, "Take your people and check everyone in the palace of Concubine Xian. Take this flower flower and see if it matches what she said. If it matches, check the person who handled this flower flower."
.”
Yan Huisheng said calmly: "Like concubine Li, we must rely on factual evidence. Father, please hand over this case to King Ruian for investigation!"
The emperor stopped him and said, "Go and ask the Concubine Xian to come over first."
Yan Huisheng lowered his eyebrows and said in a cold tone, "Xianfei, please speak carefully. My father's palace is so lonely that I retreat away from home."
After meeting with the emperor, the emperor indeed handed over to him the case of Su Rong's assassination yesterday. King Ruian had already been mentally prepared. There were so many cases that he didn't feel it was too heavy, so he simply accepted it in one go.
When the emperor saw that he agreed, he mentioned Concubine Xian. King Ruian's head suddenly got big, and he regretted that he had agreed too quickly. He was shocked. Why did Concubine Xian get involved again?
The emperor said: "I believe you, and I will leave this case to you."
King Ruian's guts turned green when he heard this. He secretly blamed himself for agreeing too readily, but he had already agreed. Naturally, he could not regret it at this time. He could only grit his teeth and nod, "I will investigate and get to the bottom of it."
