When Hua Jing heard this, she looked up at Emperor Ning in fear, shook her head repeatedly, "Don't come over, don't come over." After saying that, she shrank towards the innermost corner of the bed.
Yun Shang frowned. If he hadn't noticed that something was wrong with Hua Jing's situation now, then his life would have been in vain. Yun Shang hesitated for a moment, without saying a word, and locked his eyes tightly on Hua Jing's expression.
"Say!" Emperor Ning roared suddenly, causing Hua Jing, who was huddled in the corner of the bed, to tremble. He stared at Emperor Ning with a pair of wet eyes, as if he was frightened.
Emperor Ning snorted coldly, "Since you don't want to tell me whose evil seed is in your belly, then I won't keep you. I will demote you to a commoner and send you to the border to do hard labor."
Yun Shang didn't miss the flash of hatred in Hua Jing's eyes when Emperor Ning said these words. Yun Shang curled up the corners of his mouth slightly, pretending to be crazy, right? It was really a good trick. Yun Shang raised his eyes
He said, "Father, there seems to be something wrong with the imperial sister. Why don't you call the imperial doctor to take a closer look?"
When it came to the imperial doctor, the woman on the bed again showed full of fear in her eyes, "Don't come over, don't touch me, don't touch me."
Emperor Ning frowned and snorted coldly, "Teach the imperial doctor."
The chamberlain on the side quickly responded and retreated. Just as he was waiting for the imperial doctor, a guard came in and said, "I have seen the emperor, the prince, and the princess. The doctor has already examined the prince's beloved horse.
I also asked people to carefully check what Tayun ate, and I have discovered something..."
"Oh?" Emperor Ning turned around after hearing this, "What's going on?"
"Reporting back to the emperor, the doctor checked the symptoms of Tayun and found that they were caused by taking laxatives. I checked what Tayun ate today and found nothing. However, my subordinates found some laxatives mixed with them in the forest.
Black beans..." the guard quickly replied.
Emperor Ning's face turned a little dark. He dared to plot against Chang'er on such an important occasion, and he was even more angry. "Check!"
The guard hurriedly responded and retreated. Prince Jing said softly, "The sweaty horse's favorite food is black beans, but people who are not proficient in horses may not know this. Therefore, my brother speculates that the person who did this is a
Someone who is familiar with the habits of sweaty horses. Moreover, she actually calculated that Chang'er would ride Chendi's Tayun..."
Yun Shang naturally knew in her heart who did this, but she couldn't let Emperor Ning see it, and she couldn't reveal it to Emperor Ning without any trace. She pondered for a moment and then said, "Uncle Huang counts the number of horses.
It was calculated that the daughter of the imperial city could ride a horse, but Chang'er could not ride a horse. The emperor was afraid that the horse was not prepared enough, so naturally he could only let Chang'er ride the emperor's Tayun. However, who knew that Chang'er could not ride a horse?
Horse riding, and do you know that Shang'er will participate in horse racing?"
Yun Shang saw that as soon as she finished speaking, Emperor Ning's eyes became a little deeper and he fell into deep thought. After a while, he stood up and said, "This matter needs to be investigated carefully. I will go and make arrangements right away." After that, he pointed out.
He said to Hua Jing, "Let the doctor take a look at this evil obstacle later. If she doesn't cooperate, tie it up. If the doctor sees it, then present it to me."
Manager Zheng on the side responded quickly, and Emperor Ning hurried out. When Emperor Ning left, Yun Shang turned her head and glanced at Hua Jing, who was huddled in the corner with a confused face, smiled, and walked out.
Door.
After walking out of the wing where Hua Jing lived, Yun Shang lowered her head and didn't know what she was thinking. After a while, she turned back to look at Qianyin and said, "Let's check to see who has seen Princess Hua Jing."
Qian Yin responded and left. Prince Jing looked at Qian Yin's figure and turned his head, "Shang'er also thinks something is wrong with Hua Jing?"
Yun Shang smiled coldly, "I always thought that Hua Jing would recognize Cang Jue Qingsu when my father asked like that. After all, Hua Jing is very afraid of death. But I didn't expect that she would actually
I thought of a way to pretend to be crazy and act stupid, but this is not something she could have thought of, so I am sure someone must have made suggestions for her."
"Shang'er is so smart." Prince Jing smiled slightly, his eyes full of smiles.
Yun Shang was stunned for a moment, feeling that her face was a little hot, and turned her eyes, "It's just that I didn't understand. Since Cangjue Qingsu had mentioned before that he wanted Hua Jing to marry to Yelang Kingdom, why didn't he take advantage of this opportunity?
, simply admitted that the child in Hua Jing's belly was his. In that case, the Queen and Prime Minister Li would not be able to organize it even if they wanted to. After all, in the heart of the father, the royal family's reputation was much more important than Hua Jing's.
"
Prince Jing smiled and shook his head, "You only see one thing. Cangjue Qingsu really wants to marry Hua Jing and wants to get the support of the Queen and the Li family so that he can obtain the position of crown prince. But, because of this, he
I absolutely cannot admit that the child Hua Jing lost today is his. Think about it, the doctor just said that Hua Jing was already three months pregnant. Three months ago, we were at war with the Yelang Kingdom.
, at this time, Hua Jing and Cang Jue Qingsu secretly traveled to Chencang and had a child. If word spreads like this, what will the emperor think and what will everyone in the world think? "
Yun Shang's eyes lit up, she turned her head and was about to speak, but she saw Qian Yin walking back, "Princess, I asked you, the Prime Minister's wife was here just now."
"Oh?" Yun Shang raised her eyebrows, "I think I know how to deal with the Li family." As she spoke, she raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and a flash of intelligence flashed in her eyes.
Prince Jing raised his eyebrows. Within a moment, he knew what Yun Shang was going to do. After pondering for a moment, Prince Jing nodded, "This plan is feasible. If there is anything you want my help with, why don't you come with me?"
Just say it.”
Yun Shang nodded and said with a smile, "That's natural."
At the same time, in another wing of the palace, a man in black stood respectfully in the room and whispered to the screen, "Master, I have heard that the child in Princess Huajing's belly is
Cangjue Qingsu’s.”
After the man in black spoke, there was no sound from the screen for a while. Just when the man in black thought he wouldn't hear the sound, an extremely gentle voice came, "Oh? What's in Princess Huajing's belly?"
The child is three months old, right? Three months ago, Cangjue Qingsu was trying to beat Prince Jing badly at the border, so how could he secretly cross Chencang with Princess Huajing?"
The man in black stood straight and his voice was calm, "Reporting to the master, about four months ago, Princess Hua Jing's husband-in-law disappeared on the battlefield. Princess Hua Jing went to the border to look for her husband-in-law, but he disappeared for a long time.
Time, I’m afraid…”
"Oh, it's interesting. I thought Cang Jue Qingsu came to Ningguo for Princess Ningguo Huiguo, but I didn't expect it was for Princess Huajing. But I'm afraid even he didn't expect that such a thing would happen. I don't know.
How will Jue Qingsu resolve this matter? However, does Cang Jue Qingsu think that by marrying Hua Jing, he can get the support of Ning Guo to help him seize the position of crown prince?" The voice inside was slightly sarcastic.
The man in black was silent for a moment and then said, "Master, what should we do now?"
After a long silence, a faint voice came from behind the screen, but it was a bit colder, "It doesn't matter, Prime Minister Li will never marry Hua Jing to Cang Jue Qingsu, but it's just a precaution.
Yicangjue Qingsu broke the rules and directly announced that he had an ulterior relationship with Hua Jing. At that time, I am afraid that even if Emperor Ning was unwilling, he would have no choice but to force Hua Jing to marry him."
After a pause, his voice sounded again, but with a hint of coldness in his usual gentleness, "It's just that I will never let such a thing happen. If that day comes, I will find a way to let Emperor Ning send Hua
Jing will be demoted to a commoner and let the Li family sever ties with her. If that still doesn't work, then just deal with her directly."
The man in black nodded, "I understand," and then disappeared.
There was a soft murmur in the room, "It's time to throw away the useless chess pieces. Keeping them will lead to bad things." After saying that, a sound was heard, and a few chess pieces rolled out from behind the screen and landed on the screen.
Outside, after a while, a pale and thin hand stretched out from behind the screen, picked up the rolling chess pieces one by one, and threw them out of the window at will.
One afternoon, Yun Shang stayed in the side room to play chess with Prince Jing. Yun Shang's chess skills were taught by Xiao Yuanshan himself, and she had been praised by Xiao Yuanshan many times. However, in one afternoon, she never beat Prince Jing in a game.
"Princess, the doctor has reported back to the emperor, saying that Princess Huajing is fine, but she is a little weak due to miscarriage." Qian Yin walked in and reported softly.
Yun Chang nodded and stood down absently, then heard Prince Jing's voice, "Shang'er is sure to play here. If you play here, I'm afraid you will lose this game."
Yun Shang was stunned and looked at the chessboard, but he didn't know when he was attacked by King Jing from the back. He had indeed lost. Yun Shang sighed. His grandfather often said that you can tell people by watching chess, so he likes to play more cautiously.
He acted cautiously step by step, looking forward and backward, but King Jing's chess seemed to be completely disorganized. At the beginning, he was completely unsure of what he wanted to do. Only in the end did he realize that his
Almost every step has been calculated.
"Uncle Huang is so far-sighted that Chang'er is ashamed of himself." Yun Chang sighed and put down the chess piece in his hand.
Prince Jing smiled slightly and said, "Chang'er is a woman after all, and she is inexperienced. It's normal to lose to me. If some time passes, I'm afraid it won't be easy for me to win against Chang'er."
Yun Shang naturally knew how much she weighed, but just looking at him comforting her, she couldn't help but appreciate it, so she smiled and said, "Thank you, uncle."
Prince Jing smiled and shook his head. Naturally, he could see that Yun Shang was worried and seemed to be absent-minded. However, it was inconvenient for him to ask more questions, so he just stood up and said, "Brother Huang is afraid that he will treat both the Queen and Hua Jing now."
They are already very disappointed, but because the envoys from Yelang Kingdom and Xia Kingdom are here now, they can't lose face, so they can only deal with it later. Don't worry, if they want to stand up again, it may not be that easy.
There is a bonfire party tonight, so we should go out."
Yun Shang nodded, "I wonder if the culprit who gave Ta Yun laxatives has been caught?"
Prince Jing paused, then turned to look at Yun Chang, with a faint smile on his lips, "Isn't it made by Chang'er?"
Yun Shang was a little embarrassed, but she did do it herself, but she didn't know how Prince Jing found out.
Prince Jing smiled and said, "I have seen those black beans before. The laxative was not used very skillfully. I am afraid that it is because Cangyang Yu'er and Jing Wenxi thought it was only used to deal with animals. In addition, the time was relatively short.
It was rushed and not fully prepared. Tayun will never eat such a thing. Besides, Tayun personally told me before that it was you who fed it."
Huh? Yun Shang was stunned. Horses can talk. After a moment of silence, he also understood a little bit. That Tayun has been following Prince Jing. It is not a strange thing that Prince Jing has the same mind with it. Fortunately, he also
He had no intention of hiding anything from Prince Jing, so he smiled and said, "I don't like people who keep trying to plot against me secretly. If I have many enemies, I am always on tenterhooks, for fear that I will die inexplicably without knowing why.
Well, besides, this is the trouble that the emperor has caused for me, shouldn't the emperor handle it by himself?"
Prince Jing nodded, "What Chang'er said is true. I will deal with those two people well. Jing Wenxi will find someone to join her. As for Cangyang Yu'er, I will take care of those two people."
The king has other uses, just watch Shang'er when the time comes."
"Huh?" Yun Shang heard this and responded with a smile. Although she didn't know what Prince Jing wanted to do, it just sounded like there was some expectation.
When Yun Shang and Prince Jing arrived at the bonfire party, the bonfire party had already begun. Yun Shang and Prince Jing found a random place to sit down and watched the singing and dancing performances. The maid on the side brought a plate of roast lamb.
, Yun Shang raised her eyebrows, the fragrance was quite tempting.
Prince Jing smiled and took Yun Shang's plate, causing Yun Shang to stare at Prince Jing for a long time. Prince Jing smiled and cut the mutton into pieces with a dagger, and then handed it to Yun Shang, who picked the pieces.
Eyebrow, smiled and thanked Prince Jing, lowered his head and started eating politely.
Although the sky was dark and the singing and dancing everywhere was very lively, this movement also fell into the eyes of some interested people. A few clusters of fire appeared in Cangyang Yu'er's eyes. Seeing this, Cang Jue Qingsu came to Cang Yang Yu'er's side.
After saying something, Cangyang Yu'er sternly withdrew his gaze.
Yun Shang smiled slightly and ignored it.
This night was peaceful, with the singing and dancing going on. Yun Shang's eyes moved, and Qian Yin gave some detailed instructions. Qian Yin then retreated. After a while, Cang Jue Qing Su quietly left.
At the banquet, not long after Cangjue Qingsu left, Prime Minister Li, who was drinking with others, also smiled and said that he had drunk too much, so he paid his respects and left.
Yun Shang squinted her eyes, stood up, walked to Emperor Ning and said, "Father, someone just came to report that the emperor's sister is not in good health. Father, why don't we go over and take a look?"
After what happened today, Emperor Ning didn't want to see Hua Jing. However, he kept Hua Jing for some purposes. When he heard Yun Shang say this, he frowned but stood up and said, "Then go and have a look."
Let’s take a look.”
Yun Shang helped Emperor Ning leave the banquet hall of the bonfire party, walked through the garden, and walked into a bamboo forest in the palace. He vaguely heard some sounds in the distance. Yun Shang frowned and stopped hesitantly.
He stepped forward and listened for a moment, then he leaned into Emperor Ning's ear and whispered softly, "Father, this voice seems to be that of the Prime Minister?"
After a pause, he seemed to hesitate and said, "The other voice seems to be the third prince of Yelang Kingdom?"
Yun Shang saw a dim light flashing in Emperor Ning's eyes, and Yun Shang whispered again, "Father, do we want to go say hello to the Prime Minister and the third prince?"
Emperor Ning smiled coldly, "Let's take a detour."
Yun Shang's lips curled up with a cold smile. She was indeed right. She guessed that Emperor Ning would not really come forward to greet them. On the one hand, he had always suspected that he was an important minister in the Ning Kingdom. On the other hand, it was
The foreign prince was eyeing him with eager eyes. Even if what they were talking about was really nothing, it would probably plant seeds of doubt in Emperor Ning's heart.
When Emperor Ning and Yun Shang arrived at Hua Jing's wing, they saw Hua Jing sleeping very peacefully. The imperial doctor on the side quickly stepped forward and said, "I have seen the emperor."
Emperor Ning nodded, pointed at Hua Jing and said, "What's wrong?"
The imperial doctor quickly said, "Reporting to the emperor, there was a scene just now, but now it seems that I am tired and have fallen asleep."
Yun Shang smiled slightly and her eyes fell on the slightly arched quilt on the bed. This was naturally her work. On the one hand, it was just to let Emperor Ning break the scene just now. On the other hand, the imperial doctor had already told Emperor Ning,
There was nothing wrong with Hua Jing at all. Hua Jing's pretending to be ill was a joke in Emperor Ning's eyes. Moreover, the more Hua Jing pretended to be and the more trouble he made, the more displeased Emperor Ning became.
There was no other expression on Emperor Ning's face. He turned around and walked out of the wing, but did not return to the banquet hall. He just said calmly, "I am also tired. I will go back and rest first."
Yun Chang nodded and followed Emperor Ning to send him back. After walking nearly half of the distance, Emperor Ning said, "Shang'er is much smarter than your imperial sister. I shouldn't worry at all. But, although I
I have arranged a marriage for you and Prince Jing, but you are still not husband and wife. In the past few days, envoys from the Yelang Kingdom and the Xia Kingdom are here, so you must be careful, as those two are not easy to deal with."
Yun Shang was silent for a moment. Apart from Cang Jue Qingsu of Yelang Kingdom, could it be that the father was talking about the Seventh Prince of Xia Kingdom who looked very weak?
Yun Shang paused for a moment, and suddenly there was a sound. Over the past few days, Xu Shicang felt that Qingsu had made too many little moves. He actually completely ignored the seventh prince of the Xia Kingdom. Firstly, he looked so charming.
His gentle and elegant appearance does not seem to be a scheming person, but because he is too honest compared to Cang Jue Qingsu.
But just now after hearing Emperor Ning's words, Yun Shang felt a little frightened. The seventh prince was indeed very honest, but he was so honest that he almost subconsciously ignored him. Such a person can be considered a kind of person.
What about my ability? It seems that I have to investigate the seventh prince of Xia Kingdom carefully... (To be continued)
