"Jing Kui was the late emperor's illegitimate son. However, the late emperor and the Queen Mother had an agreement that only their son could ascend the throne. Because she was afraid that Jing Kui would come to fight with the emperor, the Queen Mother originally wanted to get rid of Jing Kui, but the late emperor felt that it was him after all.
Jing Kui's son was poisoned by tigers and would not eat its children. In the end, Jing Kui was castrated so that he could not continue the family line, and then he was taken away by a palace servant and raised among the people. After Jing Kui found out about this, he wanted revenge. He wanted the emperor's life.
Wen Lan is just Jing Kui's adopted son, and his contact with Qin Meng is actually just to carry out Jing Kui's revenge plan." Jing Wenxi's voice came out very clearly, and Yun Shang and Prince Jing both looked shocked.
Yun Shang originally only knew that this matter had something to do with Jing Kui, but she didn't know that there was such an ulterior secret. Yun Shang hurriedly said to Prince Jing, "I have to go to the palace. Please excuse me for continuing the interrogation.
If there is a result, just send someone to the palace directly. This matter involves a lot..."
Prince Jing nodded, and Yun Shang hurried out of the courtyard gate and went straight to the palace.
When Emperor Ning was in Qiwu Palace, Yun Shang hurriedly called the palace servants to deliver a message. He only said that there were extremely important things to report to Emperor Ning. Liu Qingya was Yun Shang's person, and she would definitely not force Ning to be killed.
The emperor kept it.
In less than half an hour, Emperor Ning came over and asked, "What's wrong? In such a hurry?" Emperor Ning saw a thin layer of sweat on Yun Shang's forehead, and couldn't help being a little surprised. It was rare to see Yun Shang like this.
.
Yun Shang looked around at the palace servants with their eyes downcast. Emperor Ning asked the palace servants to retreat. Yun Shang quickly reported to Emperor Ning one by one what he had just said out of Jing Wenxi's mouth. Emperor Ning heard that
Yan Yi frowned and looked at the table unconsciously. After a while, he said, "I heard the late emperor talk about this matter before, and I also sent people to find the child. It's just that the late emperor wanted to protect him, so he never found her.
The whereabouts, it turned out, turned out to be him."
Yun Shang was silent for a while and then said, "This matter is very involved. Jing Kui can be executed based on Jing Wenxi's confession alone. However, he must do it quickly enough so that no one who knows Jing Kui's identity has the chance to let the court know first."
The minister knows."
Emperor Ning nodded, "Jing Kui is under my control. I asked the secret guards to deal with him first. Then he committed suicide out of fear of crime. I teamed up with Li Jingyan and Cang Jue Qingsu to kill Cang Jue Kangning. I put the blame on Prince Jing."
If it is made public to the world, then no one else can question it."
"Yes, that should be the case." Yun Shang responded in a low voice, and then added, "Chang'er will have the evidence of the two previous cases presented to the father, and the father will make the decision himself, but Chang'er has something on his mind.
beg."
"Oh?" Emperor Ning raised his eyebrows and said calmly, "But you want me to bypass the seventh prince of Xia Kingdom and find a scapegoat to take his blame?"
Yun Shang was silent for a while, then whispered, "Yes."
Emperor Ning's eyes fell on the butterfly hairpin on Yun Shang's head. He was silent for a moment and then said, "Prince Jing has returned to his home?"
Yun Shang paused for a moment before replying in a low voice, "Yes. My father must also know how capable I am. If it weren't for Prince Jing, how could I have found so much evidence?"
Emperor Ning's eyes darkened slightly, and he said after a long while, "Are you going back to Xia Kingdom with Xia Huanyu? When will you set off?"
"The eighth day of next month." Yun Shang's voice was a little softer.
"On the eighth day of next month, it is already thirty, and there are still eight days left." Emperor Ning sighed, "I have agreed to your request, and I would have told Xia Huanyu personally, if not for the fact that you are my favorite
Princess, I will never let his son go. He owes you a favor. For the sake of this matter, the Xia Kingdom can also treat you better. Your status in the Xia Kingdom is different, and you can no longer be like in the Xia Kingdom.
Ning Guo is like this. You are going crazy to deal with this and that, thinking that I am completely unaware. I don’t know how many times I have cleaned up the mess for you. When you go to Xia State in the future, remember to be cautious. The queen, princess and concubines of Xia State are
, none of them are easy to deal with."
Emperor Ning was used to being an emperor, and rarely spoke so many words. Yun Shang felt the tip of her nose was slightly sore. After being silent for a long time, she pushed back the wetness in her eyes and nodded in agreement, "I understand, I understand.
I sincerely abide by my father’s teachings.”
"Go back." Emperor Ning waved his hand and said calmly.
Yun Shang returned to the house, and Prince Jing was already there. "The evidence has been sorted out and sent to the palace. The matter will be understood soon."
Yun Shang nodded slowly, "Well, my father agreed and spared the seventh prince this time."
After hearing this, Prince Jing was silent for a moment, then raised his hand and slowly took Yun Shang into his arms, "There are still seven or eight days left, why don't you go back to the palace to stay for a while and spend more time with Concubine Jin and your father?"
Yun Shang opened her mouth, but felt her throat hurt a little. After a while, she said in a dry voice, "No need."
No need, we have to leave eventually. If we have seen each other too much, it will be even harder to leave when we are separated. Yun Shang walked back to the room in silence and lay down on the soft couch. She seemed to be extremely tired and soon fell asleep.
Fell asleep.
The Crown Prince of Xia Kingdom and the Crown Prince of Yelang Kingdom were both killed in Ning Kingdom, which added a subtle atmosphere to the three kingdoms that were already at war. Some time ago, after Xia Kingdom and Ning Kingdom jointly issued an alliance statement, there was another
Everyone in the world was watching this matter. The truth was told to the world in the form of an edict, but everyone was shocked.
Li Jingyan had previously used the Xia Kingdom as an ally to launch a coup, but did not want to fail. Li Jingyan gave his granddaughter Princess Huajing as a gift to Cangjue Qingsu, the third prince of the Yelang Kingdom, and formed an alliance with Cangjue Qingsu.
In exchange for killing the prince of Yelang Kingdom, Li Jingyan instigated Ning Huajing to kill the prince of Xia Kingdom in order to exchange for the alliance of the seventh prince of Xia Kingdom. However, he did not want the seventh prince of Xia Kingdom to be extremely angry when he found out and did not agree, so Li Jingyan
He kidnapped the seventh prince of the Xia Kingdom and united with Jing Kui, the prime minister of the Ning Kingdom, on the condition of promoting Jing Wenxi as his queen.
Jing Kui's daughter Jing Wenxi got acquainted with the Yelang Prince because he was humiliated at a palace banquet, and threatened to help the Yelang Prince to avenge him.
The ventriloquist invited by Jing Kui put on a show and framed Prince Jing with the Prince Jing token forged by the forger, but he did not want to be killed by the killer hired by Li Jingyan and Cang Jue Qingsu. Later, when the matter was exposed,
Jing Kui committed suicide in his own house out of fear of crime. Li Jingyan had also been arrested and was to be executed at a later date, while Cang Jue Qingsu was handed over to the Emperor of Yelang Kingdom to deal with him personally.
The announced truth made the matter very thorough, but completely left the seventh prince of the Xia Kingdom aside.
Xia Huanyu looked at the woman sitting opposite him, and after a moment of silence he said, "I heard that it was you who begged Emperor Ning?"
Yun Shang naturally knew what he was talking about, and smiled and said, "Although the prince has a high reputation in Ning country, he started from scratch when he came to Ning country. Moreover, your majesty and the prince have been separated for many years. I am afraid that they do not have such a deep relationship. How harsh is the prince?"
Yes, I can understand. But the prince is different. He has not been loved by his parents for so many years, and he finally knows who his parents are. He hopes to be closer to his father. The seventh prince framed the prince before, but your majesty
He was conflicted about making such an embarrassing request to the prince, so I asked my father for this favor in the hope that the prince could feel a little better."
Xia Huanyu frowned and looked at Yun Shang's face for a long time. When he saw her face was calm, he lowered his head lightly and sneered, "He is Hua Ling's child. I should be partial to him."
Yes, it's just that pampering sometimes doesn't mean how nice you are to him, but it teaches him how cruel the royal family is and lets him know how to survive this cruelty. This is the most important thing."
"Not everyone can understand your majesty's good intentions." Yun Shang dropped the last word and said calmly, "Your majesty lost this sentence, so he must have something on his mind. In this case, Chang'er is also tired.
I won’t accompany Your Majesty.” After saying that, he stood up and led Qianyin out of the pavilion.
Prince Jing has officially returned to Prince Jing's palace, but because of his status, he has not been to court these days. He only stays in the house reading every day, and has never seen Xia Huanyu even when he came.
"Who won?" Seeing Yun Shang come back, Prince Jing raised his eyes and asked calmly.
Yun Shang smiled, sat down on the soft side and smiled, "Of course I won."
Prince Jing also laughed and stopped talking. His eyes never left the book. Yun Shang then turned to look at Qianyin and said, "Have everything been packed?"
"Back to the princess, everything is almost done. You don't need to bring too much clothes. You can just buy more when you get to Xia Kingdom. The emperor recently gave some other utensils, which are small but very expensive. So the slaves took them with them.
, I’m afraid it will come in handy when we get to Xia Kingdom. The rest, what I brought the most with me are the books, calligraphy and paintings of the prince and princess, etc. My servants and slaves have prepared sixteen maids and maids each." Qian.
Yin lowered his head and responded one by one, looking at Yun Shang with a smile, "Is there anything else you would like to add, Princess?"
Yun Shang thought for a moment and shook her head, "There is nothing left. What is missing is not critical. We will just buy more when the time comes." But then he raised his eyes and looked at Prince Jing, "Your Majesty, it will be no good when you arrive in Xia Kingdom.
He should be a prince, so he can’t afford even the most commonly used things, right?"
Prince Jing smiled and patted Yun Shang's head, "What are you talking about? I asked the steward to convert the shop and village under my name directly into silver, and later I asked the steward to bring the accounts to the princess for review.
I'm not good at these things, so let the princess take care of them."
"In that case, if the prince wants pocket money, he will have to apply to the princess." Upon hearing this, Qianyin also joked with a smile.
Prince Jing was not angry at all. He smiled and said, "I guess there are not many places and people who can let me spend money. One hundred taels of silver every month should be enough. If I can save some, I can give it to
Madam, I’m buying some rouge jewelry.” For a moment, the room burst into laughter. (To be continued)
