As soon as he heard that something had happened, Xiao Nianzhi's originally groggy mind suddenly became clear and his eyes widened a bit: "Second brother, what's wrong?"
When asking questions, Xiao Nianzhi looked at Xiao Zhou carefully and found that his second brother was fine, and felt a little relieved.
Seeing his sister looking at him, Xiao Zhou felt warm in his heart, but his face was still tense and his voice was a bit hoarse: "Your Highness, you are dead."
Xiao Nianzhi:???
She thought there was something wrong with her ears, and after making a sound, she said in disbelief: "What?"
It's not that Xiao Nianzhi has a good impression of the third prince. He is a typical male chauvinist who has been cultivated under feudal ethics and looks down on women.
Xiao Nianzhi annoyed him to death when he was reading, and now it is even more impossible to have a good impression of him.
The reason why I am surprised and can’t believe it now is because...
Although the plot was shattered by her, but, in the end, the third prince committed suicide by himself, and it happened a few years later, so why is he dead now?
Seeing that the Chinese New Year is here, he hasn’t even made it through the New Year?
Seeing that Xiao Nianzhi seemed to be in disbelief, Xiao Zhou nodded: "What happened yesterday afternoon, His Majesty summoned the clan members to the palace urgently. I think His Highness King Wei was also summoned urgently. There is currently no way to arrange for manpower to come out to inform us. More than three people have been summoned."
His Highness the Prince passed away, and the main residence of Ganqing County was completely burned to the ground. The number of casualties is not known yet, but I guess not many people can escape, right?"
Lord Ganqing County and the others live in Lu'an Lane, which is not far from Changqing Street where Xiao Nianzhi and the others live, but it is actually quite far away.
Moreover, the fire was lit in the middle of the night, so no one in the Xiao Mansion paid any attention.
Although Xiao Nianzhi didn't sleep well last night, she was used to the sound of watchmen banging on the street occasionally.
Therefore, if there were any cries for help or fire-fighting in extremely far away places, she would just assume that someone was someone who didn't like to sleep and was tossing around in the middle of the night.
After all, the Chinese New Year is approaching and the streets are indeed lively.
Xiao Nianzhi, who was almost taken hostage, now has no expectations for nightlife and doesn’t even want to go out at night.
Therefore, no one in the Xiao family noticed anything unusual.
Hearing Xiao Zhou say this, Xiao Nianzhi reacted for a while, and then remembered something.
Lu Jingyuan......
Are you still alive?
It would be good news if he died.
I'm afraid that if the opponent is not dead, and then he makes a death escape, that will be disgusting!
However, it was difficult for Xiao Nianzhi to ask this question.
Xiao Zhou didn't say much. After all, the fire that burned in the middle of the night yesterday was still being dealt with. Dali Temple assisted the Jingzhao Yin Mansion in the investigation, and the results are expected to be available soon.
The third prince passed away suddenly. Although not every household should observe filial piety and fast, His Majesty is probably not in a good mood after losing a son, so everyone should keep a low profile.
It is also because of this that the streets were lively and lively yesterday, with gongs and drums beating in many places to welcome the New Year, but today it has become deserted.
I went for a walk on the street. Except for the fact that many things were still being sold, there were a lot fewer pedestrians. Moreover, everyone was no longer celebrating. Everyone had a straight face or a cold face, for fear that someone would see a hint of joy and cause trouble again.
To the grieving emperor.
Your Majesty is indeed feeling uncomfortable now. Although he is tired of the former Concubine Shu, he did prefer her for many years.
Now it's just because he loves power more than his concubine, and he doesn't want women to harm power and make him follow in the footsteps of the late emperor.
However, this does not mean that His Majesty has no lingering affection for Concubine Shu, or that he no longer loves his son, the Third Prince.
Now when he heard that his son was gone, His Majesty was immediately furious!
Why did my good son die?
If it is due to illness or other reasons, it will be a little more acceptable.
However, there has been no news recently from the third prince's house that he is ill or suffering from something else.
Why did he die suddenly?
The person who came to report the news was hesitant to speak out at first and was trembling with fear.
Later, when His Majesty was angry, the other party became honest and knelt there, his voice trembling as he said, "...Yes, it's Mr. Lu."
His Majesty was stunned for a moment after hearing this.
Lu's?
What does this mean?
His Majesty's eyes widened, and the servant was frightened and whispered back: "It's apoplexy."
His Majesty still didn't react, but Quan De understood clearly and reminded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, it's the wind immediately."
Your Majesty will understand as soon as you mention the common name.
After understanding this, I became even more angry!
He is a good son, even if he is usually a bit of a womanizer, he will not die directly from a woman, right?
What the hell is going on?
Moreover, servant reports are also very directional.
Lu's?
Is there such a concubine in Lao San’s house?
Although His Majesty doubted it, he also knew that the death of the third child was not dignified, so he quickly called the stern imperial doctor to come over and check again.
Before verification is obtained, His Majesty is not prepared to let others enter the palace to investigate this matter.
As for the Lu family that the servant mentioned?
Lock him up first and then interrogate him later!
When Yan Xingxuan heard that the third prince was about to die, he thought this was simply ridiculous.
I’ve never heard of it before, the third prince is so beautiful?
The other party tried his best to fight with the prince. In recent years, more of his thoughts have been focused on fighting.
It's just that he doesn't have enough brain power. Most of the time, Shubin or the Song family helps him think of solutions.
Yan Xingxuan can understand some of them, but not others.
However, he knew one thing, no matter how partial the emperor's brother was, the third prince could not defeat the prince at all.
In the past, I had to fight for power, but now I am attracted to women?
Is it possible that this thing is still hereditary?
From the former emperor to the emperor's brother, and now to the third prince, can this not be changed?
Yan Xingxuan intuitively felt that there was something going on here, but it concerned the royal family's reputation, and he didn't have a good impression of the third prince, so he didn't bother to get involved.
As an uncle, he would not keep a vigil for a nephew.
However, since all the clan members are here, he can’t just leave the palace and leave the palace alone, right?
Things happened in such a hurry yesterday that before he could send someone out to report the news, the palace door was locked.
Now that he was finally free, he hurriedly sent someone over to report the news to Xiao Nianzhi.
Because before Laishun was sent to Xiao Nianzhi, Yan Xingxuan really didn't have any capable servants around him now, so he could only let the guards go.
The guard sent there is a stickler.
Whatever Xiao Nianzhi asked, he just said it without any intention of covering up.
In his opinion, this is the future princess, so what are you hiding?
When Xiao Nianzhi tentatively asked, the cause of death of the third prince.
The guard replied in a very straightforward manner: "The wind will blow soon."
