Xiang Rong's face turned pale and her body trembled involuntarily. She seemed to be extremely angry. At that time, she pointed at Li Danqing and hesitated for a long time, but could not say a word.
Li Danqing saw Xiang Rong's performance in his eyes and glanced sideways at Ji Fei, who had been silent all the time. The other party seemed to feel Li Danqing's gaze and smiled faintly at Li Danqing.
Li Shizi thought with a shiver in his heart: In order to gain the support of Baiyi Mansion, Ji Qi made Xiang Rong the queen and his son Ji Quan the prince. After so many years, the overall situation in Wuyang has been decided.
But Xiang Rong was so arrogant that he seemed to be domineering everywhere, but in fact he had been pampered for too long. The prince Ji Quan was almost the same as his mother in temperament. He was fierce and timid, but he was much different from the second prince Ji Fei.
It's no wonder that Lu Que and the Guiyu Mansion behind him would bet on Ji Fei.
If the rumors that Ji Qi is seriously ill are true, the battle for the right to inherit the throne will probably be difficult to resolve, and the events of the past may have to happen again.
Li Danqing thought of this, shook his head, withdrew his gaze, and at this moment looked at the two Zhu Zijia beside him and said: "You two adults understand what is going on, and you should make a clear decision between right and wrong, right?"
Zhu Zijia, the leader, frowned again. She nodded and looked sideways at Xiang Rong, just about to say something to calm the matter.
But Xiang Rong, who was so angered by Li Danqing's words that he completely lost his mind, obviously couldn't listen to anything.
At that time, she said angrily: "You bastard! He is confusing right and wrong and talking nonsense! Take him away!"
Hearing this, the leader Zhu Zijia frowned again on her face under the mask. She stared at Xiang Rong and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty."
"Zhu Zijia's duty is to protect the safety of His Majesty, the empresses, and the princes and princesses in the palace."
"But Prince Li had no intention of harming the empress. Secondly, he only raised objections to the empress's control of the concubines. The subordinates thought that this was no longer within Zhu Zijia's responsibility..."
"Bastard! You are just my slaves! Whatever I ask you to do, you just do it! Is it your turn to teach me how to do things?" Xiang Rong was frustrated again and again today, and was even more speechless by Li Danqing.
How could she, who was already so angry, go in? As Zhu Zijia said, she spoke angrily and loudly.
Zhu Zijia was silent for a while after hearing this. After a while, he raised his hands and said: "Your Majesty is right, we are just your slaves."
"If the empress insists that I take down Prince Li, I will naturally have no choice but to do so. However, I will truthfully report everything today to Your Majesty and let Your Majesty make a decision."
"The third prince has been frail since he was a child, and the little princess is also pure. Your Majesty knows all of this. If your Majesty knows that your Majesty is using this to embarrass your concubine, your Majesty must also think clearly about the consequences."
The meaning behind Zhu Zijia's words was very clear, and Xiang Rong naturally heard it clearly.
"You!" She pointed at the other person, her face turning red.
Zhu Zijia is different from ordinary officials.
Their identities are mysterious, their cultivation is advanced, and they are absolutely loyal to His Majesty.
They are independent of the Three Prefectures and Nine Divisions, and their true identities are only known to ordinary people except the emperors of the past dynasties. But what their true identities are is a mystery even to Xiang Rong, who is the queen.
But it is precisely because of this special relationship with the emperor
The special relationship is that Zhu Zijia's words carry a very heavy weight to Ji Qi.
Thinking of this, Xiang Rong frowned. After pondering for a while, the outstretched hand finally let go.
"Good slave!" she said, then flicked her sleeves, turned around and left quickly.
When the palace maid and eunuch serving beside him saw this, he quickly picked up the phoenix chair that Xiang Rong carried with him wherever he went, and quickly followed.
Grandma Yu and Ji Yuzhi were overjoyed, and hurriedly walked up to help Liu Qing'er who was on the ground. However, Liu Qing'er came to Li Danqing immediately, regardless of her own injuries, and came to Li Danqing.
Li Danqing said in defeat: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for saving my life."
"The concubine is in serious condition. The empress will only make things difficult for her at most, and she will not dare to harm her life. What's more, I am the master of Yu Zhi and Yao'er, and these matters are also my responsibility."
"Your Majesty's injuries are not serious. It's better to go back and recuperate first. We'll talk about anything later." Li Danqing said with a smile.
Hearing this, Liu Qing'er expressed her gratitude again and again, and then left the Jingnu Palace with the somewhat reluctant Little Elk and Ji Yuzhi.
Seeing everyone leaving, Li Danqing looked at the two Zhu Zijia who were still standing in front of him.
The corners of Li Shizi's lips raised at this moment, and he said to the leader: "Thank you, the two adults, for speaking up today."
Zhu Zijia, the leader, glanced sideways at Li Danqing when he heard this, and responded in a nonchalant tone: "We are just doing our job, no words of thanks."
There was a sense of alienation in his calm and polite tone that made people feel thousands of miles away.
Li Danqing didn't mind. To a certain extent, Zhu Zijia was a private soldier maintained by the royal family. He was only loyal to the royal family and never participated in any battles in the court, let alone have any relationship with foreign ministers.
But what makes Li Danqing a little concerned is...
Although from Zhu Zijia's standpoint, what they did today was reasonable.
Judging from the information about Zhu Zijia that Li Danqing knows, the most reasonable thing they can do today is that when Xiang Rong insists on making trouble, they should arrest Li Danqing and then explain the matter to Ji Qibing silently. They should not speak out.
Threatening Xiang Rong...
This made Li Danqing vaguely feel that the Zhu Zijia people seemed to be protecting something.
Although Crown Prince Li has always prided himself on being handsome and unrestrained, he has almost blind confidence in his appearance and personality charm.
But to say that one could fall in love with a noble lady just by chance and then try to keep it alive, even for a shameless person like Prince Li, would be a fantasy.
So to put it this way, what these purple armors protect is...
Some speculations appeared in Li Shizi's mind, but he did not state it clearly. He just smiled and bowed his hands towards the two nobles again.
The two of them also nodded, but at this moment, the leader, Zhu Zijia, seemed to have thought of something. He suddenly paused, took out a porcelain bottle from his arms, and handed it to Li Danqing's hand.
"This thing is called Lingyu Powder."
"It can heal wounds and activate blood congestion. If it is convenient, Your Majesty, please give this item to the concubine on my behalf. It can help her recover from her injuries as soon as possible."
Li Danqing was a little surprised when he heard this, but soon regained his composure.
"Naturally." Li Danqing said again.
Zhu Zijia seemed relieved to receive such a response, and his attitude toward Li Danqing softened a little: "Then I'll thank you, Prince."
After she said this, the two figures slowly faded away like ghosts, and then disappeared from Li Danqing's eyes.
Li Danqing saw this scene in his eyes and was amazed in his heart.
Li Danqing thought that the sudden appearance of Zhu Zijia just now was because the opponent was too fast to be caught by his naked eyes, but now it seems that it is more like a magical skill in his eyes, which can make people appear in a certain place silently.
.
Li Danqing was not sure about the limitations of this technique, but just thinking about it, his enemy would appear next to him quietly and out of thin air, and Prince Li couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
The Wuyang royal family has been in existence for hundreds of years and has a profound foundation that is indeed not comparable to that of ordinary sects or even holy mountains.
But why did Zhu Zijia, who should be loyal only to the royal family, be so partial to Yan Huan Palace?
Li Danqing thought this, looking at the porcelain bottle in his hand, he couldn't help but become more and more curious.
Is it possible that Liu Qing'er, who was turned into a pariah by Xiang Rong, still has some secret life experience?
"Prince." Just when Li Danqing was thinking about this, a clear voice suddenly came from beside him.
Li Danqing was stunned when he saw the second prince standing next to him, looking at him with a smile.
Li Danqing actually didn't have a good impression of Ji Fei, but after all, he was soft-spoken and short-handed. The favor of leading the way just now was still there, so Li Danqing had to return the favor at this time: "If the second prince hadn't led the way just now, I might not know what to do today.
What a disaster it has caused, Li Danqing would like to express my gratitude."
Ji Fei smiled brilliantly and said, "It's just a matter of a little effort."
"But it's over now. I think the prince can feel relieved. It's a good night today. Someone in my house gave me a pot of Jade Fengchun a few days ago. I heard that General Li liked this thing the most when he was alive. I think the prince should also treat it accordingly.
This thing is quite interesting.”
"Why don't you come to my house to get together, firstly, to taste this wine, and secondly, I also want to hear the prince's story about Yingshui County, how the prince managed to defeat a hundred thousand thieves by himself."
"I have admired the Crown Prince for a long time, but I have never had the chance to have a close relationship with him. Today is a rare opportunity, and I ask the Crown Prince not to postpone it."
When Li Danqing heard this, he couldn't help being stunned again, and looked at Ji Fei with a strange look.
Is there anyone in Wuyang City who can admire me?
It was rare for Prince Li to have a clear understanding of himself.
Of course, he also understands what it means to be in love with spring, and how one person can defeat a hundred thousand thieves.
It's all just a pretense.
Ever since Ji Fei arrived today and took him to Jingnu Palace, he had been vaguely aware of the second prince's good intentions towards him.
But even if we want to show goodwill, can we use some convincing words?
Prince Li cursed secretly and was a little confused at the same time. Although he often boasted about himself, he also understood that he was not a popular person in Wuyang City now. He had no real power and no reputation. What exactly made him worthy of the second prince?
He valued it so much that he would not hesitate to wait for the Queen of Sin today to extend this olive branch to him?
Prince Li didn't understand the meaning of this, so he simply stopped thinking about it.
At that time, he grinned, cupped his hands towards Ji Fei, and said, "Then you will be respectful and obey your orders."
