"Miss Ling San, it is true that there are surprises everywhere." Prince Gong said without meaning, "However, since they did not hide their whereabouts, they just told us that they are not coming to our Prince Gong's residence."
"My subordinate understands."
Prince Gong's eyes were full of mystery, "Go and burn that courtyard."
The subordinate was stunned and said, "Yes."
This night.
Ordinary people have no idea what a thrilling scene happened in Kyoto.
But the next day, it was spread all over Kyoto that the courtyard where Princess Gong lived in Prince Gong's Mansion had flooded last night, and now it was dry. After the fire was extinguished, Princess Gong, the second Miss Ling who had been envied by so many people in the General Mansion, had turned into a
ash.
The General's Mansion is really at the forefront of the storm.
Princess Gong was burned to death.
Then Miss Ling San, who had just saved her life from the execution ground, was in trouble again.
Not many people know about this, but there are people who are relatives in the imperial court and serve as officials, or people with some connections have heard about it.
The emperor fell ill in the middle of the night after returning to the palace from the execution ground yesterday.
Although the imperial doctor said that there was no serious problem, it was caused by being too diligent in government affairs and working hard, and he would be fine after taking some rest. However, many people are guessing whether he was angry at Miss Ling San at the execution ground.
You said you made the emperor of a country so angry that he became ill. When the emperor recovers, will he be able to reap the benefits?
However, because Emperor Jing needed a temporary rest, he ordered His Highness King Qi to take charge of some government affairs during this period.
His Highness Prince Qi has a close relationship with the General's Mansion. Thinking about it this way, maybe Miss Ling San will be fine?
Because this morning, I really haven’t seen or heard that Miss Ling San of the General Mansion has been questioned?
Of course, the father and son of the General Mansion now have victory over the northern and southern borders, and can hold most of Dajing's military power in their hands. Even if something happens, the royal family will not easily touch Miss Ling San.
Ordinary people had no idea that General Ling and His Highness Prince Ning, who they thought were at the border, had quietly returned to Beijing at night.
After His Royal Highness Prince Ning received a beating from his family, he is still covered in blood in the ancestral hall and is thinking about his mistakes behind closed doors.
But people inside the General's Mansion know.
When Ling Xueer entered, Aunt Lan had just finished arranging the internal affairs of the General's Mansion for the day.
Ling Xueer frowned, "Mom, Ninth Brother's health is not good to begin with. He suffered such a heavy punishment from the family, and now he is still kneeling in the ancestral hall without eating or drinking. I'm afraid of him..."
"Don't interfere in this matter, you won't change anything."
Ling Xueer knew that nothing could be changed, because she had already seen her father. But her father was in the study and did not see her at all!
Not just her, but no one.
It's just that she didn't understand, "The ninth brother went to the Southern Territory secretly. Indeed, although he solved the siege of the Southern Territory, he was also wrong. But as for beating people to such a state of half-death? Didn't you see... Why is dad so cruel? It's not that he doesn't know.
Ninth Brother’s usual body is capable of doing this..."
"In other words, besides this," she looked deeply at Aunt Lan, "what other things did the ninth brother do that made dad so angry that he couldn't be forgiven?"
After all, Ninth Brother is now not only Young Master Ling Jiu of the General's Mansion, but also Prince Ning, who is personally named by the Emperor.
According to my father's usual character, he completely ignored the identity of his ninth brother, Prince Ning, and beat his ninth brother as his father. It is conceivable...
So he said again, "Mom, what's the reason why Dad and Ninth Brother came back quietly? Logically speaking, no matter how fast I wrote the letter to Dad, it would only be delivered to the frontier now. But Dad came back early last night.
…”
"Also, why did Third Sister ask someone to pack up and leave at midnight last night?"
Aunt Lan said as usual, "We don't need to know many things. What we need to do is to take care of the general's mansion."
Of course Ling Xueer knew.
But she really had too many questions in her heart!
She didn't think too much about Baili Feiyue, the third sister, suddenly leaving the General's Mansion. After all, it was normal for her to take someone out for a walk after going through something like the execution ground.
But the ninth brother was beaten.
besides……
His eyes suddenly widened as lightning flashed in his mind.
Could it be that Third Sister...she...
Ling Xueer's entire expression changed completely when she was frightened by her own thoughts.
At this moment, the important ministers and knowledgeable dignitaries in the court were thinking differently from ordinary people.
The emperor suddenly fell ill, and King Qi took charge of the government.
It seems logical, but only they know how big the fluctuations caused in the government and the opposition are.
You must know that Dajing has never been established.
Although His Highness King Qi is in the limelight, many people are speculating that he is the candidate. But speculation and proof are completely different things!
Letting him act as the agent of the government shows that this is a certainty!
Moreover, it is strange that the emperor is sick when he says he is sick...
However, at this moment, Baili Feiyue was completely uninterested in all kinds of deep and shallow speculations, whether in the imperial court or among ordinary people.
After sitting up from the bed, he looked towards the window.
I saw a man in a luxurious black robe with his chin on his hands, seemingly taking a nap.
The skirt of the clothes is slightly open, and the whole person exudes a somewhat ambiguous and uninhibited charm.
Baili Feiyue got out of bed lightly, and fled out if she was a guilty thief.
"My good disciple, where are you going?"
The man holding his chin with his hand slowly opened his long eyes, and his beautiful hazel eyes fell lazily on her.
Baili Feiyue stopped and waved her hand naturally, "Hahaha, Master, I thought I was dreaming. I was about to come over and touch you to see if you are real."
The man put down the hand that was supporting his chin. With this movement, the long brown curly hair fell down, making him even more unruly and charming.
"Really?" A lively and insipid smile formed on her thin lips.
So casual that you don't care.
Baili Feiyue has seen people who smile so heart-wrenchingly that they are still pretty.
But, no matter how many times she saw it, she had never seen anyone who could smile so heart-wrenchingly and also convey a deadly flirtation.
So, very dangerous!
He stepped forward rudely, picked up the purple clay pot next to him and poured him tea, "Master, are you thirsty? Come, come, come, drink tea, drink tea."
His expression and movements were servile and groveling.
The man glanced at her and said, "He is just a man. In order to avenge him, he went to prison and to the execution ground. His courage is commendable."
Baili Feiyue said quickly, "It's because of Master's teachings that I feel confident."
"Well, I heard that you killed several foreign envoys on the execution ground and saved the face of Da Jing. My disciple is really a good boy who is loyal to the emperor and kind-hearted."
Baili Feiyue immediately retorted, "Master, that's because they want to force me to death. I always remember what you taught me. Even if I am bullied like this, of course I will kill them!"
Blinking, "Besides, it would be more fun to kill them. Although those countries dare not act rashly for the time being, this revenge will be recorded on the big scene. It will be a matter of time before revenge breaks out. By then, all countries in the world will be at war."
The blood is flowing like a river, Master must like to see it."
