The prison officer's face turned pale. Before he could stop him, the people brought by Princess Tianxiang dragged the unconscious Tong Hao from the bed, dragged him from the ground, and dragged him all the way out. He still wanted to stop him, but he heard the sudden sound of a dog.
The barking and the inexplicable smell of blood in the air made his face pale. Suddenly, there was a shrill scream and the manic barking of the hunting dogs. The air seemed to be stained with blood, making it suffocating.
Looking at the pale-faced prison officer who was shaking and unconscious on the ground, Princess Tianxiang murmured: "This kid is really timid, and he is not scared at all."
The emperor had not yet fallen asleep, and the queen was massaging his shoulders. Father-in-law Xi said in a trembling voice outside: "Your Majesty, someone is coming from the prison and they say they have something important to report to the Emperor."
The emperor frowned and said in a deep voice: "What do you want to ask him about?"
After a short pause, Eunuch Xi's voice sounded again, but it became more and more trembling, "Yes, it's General Tong's great-grandson Tong Hao, who was killed by the dog brought by Princess Tianxiang, except for a few bones."
The people inside didn't dare to stop it, fearing that the news would reach the Tong Mansion, so they came here specifically to report and ask how to deal with it."
The emperor almost lost his temper, this heavenly fragrance!
The queen was also startled, stopped what she was doing, and looked at the emperor blankly.
"This girl is just like her mother. She is ruthless and has her own way of doing things, regardless of the consequences!" The emperor gritted his teeth and said angrily, "Someone, go to Princess Tianxiang's villa and lock her up quietly. You are not allowed to do anything."
She meets outsiders!"
Grandpa Xi responded.
"Go find Xuan Jinmo and come see me!" The emperor paused, "Hurry."
"Yes." Eunuch Xi responded again and was about to turn around.
"Go and bring him here in person, and instruct the prison to keep the news strictly, and all those who know the truth will be executed!" The emperor said coldly, "In addition, send someone to kill the people around Tianxiang. No questioning is allowed on this matter. If he is alive, he will be treated as a living person.
He was killed by poison, and then he set fire to the villa."
"Yes, I will take care of it now." Eunuch Xi saw sweat on his forehead and left in a hurry.
The emperor was silent and stared at the dancing candles.
"As a wife, I don't remember that Mrs. Xu is like this. Did she misjudge the person in prison, or is someone pretending to be Tianxiang?" The queen hesitated, "Tianxiang has always liked Master Xuan, how could he deal with the flesh and blood of the person married by Prince Xuan's sister?"
A trace of helplessness flashed in the emperor's eyes, and he suddenly remembered that the queen in front of him had no idea that Tianxiang was not actually the daughter of Xu Empress, but the daughter of another ruthless woman. In order to force him to agree to the inheritance of her flesh and blood, that woman actually went to him to
Poisoned.
When he thought of the horror of the poison, the emperor couldn't help but shudder.
"Your Majesty, you--" The queen saw the sudden change in the emperor's face, was slightly startled, and asked softly.
"It's okay. You can go and rest first. I still have things to deal with." The emperor recovered his thoughts and paused. "Just treat what happened tonight as just a nightmare and don't mention it again! Okay, I'm going to the imperial study.
Change my clothes for me."
"Yes." The queen lowered her head, put on the court clothes for the emperor, and respectfully sent the emperor out.
After sitting in the imperial study room for half an hour, I was upset when I heard the footsteps of two people outside, and then the voice of Eunuch Xi, "Your Majesty, Master Xuan is here."
"Come in, no one is allowed to disturb you," the emperor said immediately.
Xuan Jinmo walked in lightly, with a somewhat gloomy and cold expression on his face. He saluted, thanked the emperor for giving him a seat, and sat down quietly without saying a word. He seemed to be in a very bad mood.
"Do you already know what happened in prison?" the emperor asked knowingly.
"Yes." Xuan Jinmo's voice was low and hoarse, and he said slowly, "Wei Chen hasn't rested yet. Someone came to see Wei Chen in the prison. He said that something big happened in the prison and asked Wei Chen to go over and deal with it. Wei Chen arrived.
At that time, there was nothing but blood on the ground and a few broken bones. The minister was frightened and did not know how to explain this matter to General Tong. Although Tong Hao had sinned heavily, he was still the important person of General Tong.
Sun, even if he is to be executed, he must inform General Tong Hao and let Tong Hao's body be buried in his ancestral grave. How can General Tong, who is already physically inconvenient, face this situation? Now Tong Hua'an is calm at the border.
A generation of famous generals, both public and private, should be protected by me. I really don't know what to do. This is the most unwilling thing for me since I learned about it."
The emperor was a little embarrassed, hesitated, and said softly: "Tianxiang is too much!"
Xuan Jin silently sighed and said slowly: "Being a minister is also embarrassing. If the people in the world know this, they will definitely accuse the emperor of favoring Princess Tianxiang. Forgetting that Tong Hao is also a big mistake, but Princess Tianxiang is after all
The Emperor’s most beloved daughter—”
Just as he was talking, there was suddenly the sound of chaotic footsteps outside, and then stopped fifty meters outside the door. He vaguely heard Eunuch Xi asking questions. After a while, Eunuch Xi came back, stood outside the door and said: "Go back to the emperor,
Someone just came to report that there was a fire in the Princess Villa, and they are putting out the fire, but judging from the situation, the fire is very fierce, and I am afraid that someone will die."
"I understand, how is Tianxiang's situation?" The emperor glanced at Xuan Jinmo, who sat expressionless and said nothing.
"The princess is fine, the consort and the prince's side room are also fine, they were all rescued, but the condition of the others is unknown." Eunuch Xi said respectfully, "The prince consort and the prince's side room were fainted by the smoke. The imperial doctor said that they should rest for two days.
It will be fine."
"Let Dr. Xu go over and take a look." The emperor looked at Xuan Jinmo again, his expression was still indifferent.
"Yes, I will go right away." Mr. Xi said immediately.
"Princess Tianxiang is the princess of Wumeng Kingdom. You must take good care of her. Tell Dr. Xu and say it's my fault. If there is a fire in the princess's garden, people will inevitably die. If Princess Tianxiang sees someone in trouble before she is rescued, she will naturally
It's better not to remember some things after being frightened, so just forget about the past two or three days." Xuan Jinmo suddenly said, "Don't hurt Princess Tianxiang, be careful."
"Yes, I will go and talk to Mr. Xu right now." Eunuch Xi's footsteps were getting farther and farther away.
"Xuan Aiqing, you are indeed smart and thoughtful." The emperor smiled and said, "I will handle this matter properly. Let's stop it here. I will find a boy who looks similar to Tong Hao and use this as an excuse to deal with it."
After he died, the Tong family took him away and buried him."
Xuan Jin sighed silently and said nothing.
"I also know that it is not easy to hide it from the Tong family. Fortunately, Tong Hao has been in prison for a long time and has been tortured to an abnormal state. Tong Aiqing is not feeling well. General Tong is at the border. Master Tong is an official outside.
If you can't come back in time, except for Tong Xiaoye, you have to rely on Xuan Aiqing to deal with it and hide the matter." The emperor smiled slightly, "I really can't bear to have anything happen to Tianxiang."
Xuan Jinmo hesitated for a moment, as if he was a little embarrassed, but he suppressed his sadness and said softly: "I will do my best to obey the decree."
