On this day, Emperor Qingming left the morning court early.
After the dynasty dispersed, all the officials came out from the Meridian Gate and discussed in low voices.
Someone came close to Xia Tingzhen and asked quietly: "Your Majesty seemed a little uneasy during the morning session today... Does Mr. Xia Ge know why?"
"It is said that something happened at Princess Jingrong's house -" Xia Tingzhen said calmly.
"Eldest princess?" The official was surprised and wanted to ask a few more questions. However, seeing Xia Tingzhen's reticent face, he was not in a hurry to ask more.
Since Mr. Xia Ge already knows about this matter, it means that news has spread, and I believe it will spread soon.
A group of officials walked out of the palace gate, and those with sharp eyes saw a canopy-covered carriage leaving the palace, with the eunuchs and eunuchs following behind it.
"Is His Majesty about to leave the palace?"
Ming Xiaozhi, the censor of Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, frowned slightly.
Your Majesty's departure from the palace is no small matter. Why haven't you heard about it before?
The young censor Song Dian on the side whispered: "I'm afraid the teacher doesn't know something. Something happened to Princess Jingrong——"
Ming Xiaozhi frowned even more when he heard this: "What did the eldest princess do again?"
He actually caused your Majesty to leave the palace in person - what kind of monster is this?
When he understands, go back and write the booklet!
Song Dian couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he saw the teacher who couldn't wait to go back to prepare the poems.
As a teacher, he submits at least 80 pieces of advice every year to impeach the eldest princess. He is really persistent enough to watch every move of the eldest princess so tirelessly...
"This time is different from the past..." Song Dian explained: "It is said that the eldest princess was injured by a conspiracy, and now she is unconscious and her life or death is uncertain..."
Mingxiao's face suddenly changed.
After a moment, he said: "I have told you before, most of those faces have unknown origins, and if they are left around, they will be a disaster. How can you walk by the river without getting wet shoes!"
Song Dian was stunned when he heard this.
According to this, the teacher has been impeaching the eldest princess all these years out of good intentions?
"After this incident, I hope she can learn a lesson and return from her lost ways!" Ming Xiaozhi said in a cold tone and left with a puff of sleeves.
Looking at the teacher's leaving figure, Song Dian had a strange expression on his face.
Why did he suddenly feel that... the teacher's enthusiasm seemed a bit like deep love and deep responsibility?
Song Dian even took a deep breath when he thought that the teacher was now over forty and had not remarried since his first wife died of illness ten years ago. He did not even have a concubine at home.
It's over, he seems to have discovered something remarkable?
Hey, it's all his fault because his brain, which came from Tong Academy, is too quick and that's not always a good thing...
The young censor secretly shook his head to stop himself from thinking further.
…
In the spacious canopied carriage, the emperor and the empress were sitting.
"When the Queen Mother heard about this, she was also very worried." The Queen sighed softly and said, "It is said that the breakfast meal was not used. She has been chanting sutras and burning incense in the Buddhist hall. She sent her mother to Jingrong's mansion early.
…”
Listening to these words, Emperor Qingming's brows were filled with worry, as if he was trying to persuade the queen, but more like comforting himself: "It's just a face, what can I do... Jingrong will definitely be fine."
He had already heard that something happened to the face-shou during the operation.
However, the person who reported the news also said that Jingrong did not know who instigated the face-shou, and had asked questions during the resistance process...
Thinking of this, Emperor Qingming had frequent guesses in his heart.
The queen nodded aside and responded: "Yes..."
A bad face means nothing decent.
But I can't stand the fact that behind this face is an inhumane emperor.
She really didn't expect that he would directly kill her own sister...
It's fine not to be a human being, but now being a beast can't satisfy him?
This is to be a complete evil ghost.
What exactly is in the hands of the honorable Princess Rong that makes him so taboo?
The queen's thoughts were changing, and at this time she was more sympathetic and worried about Princess Jingrong.
The carriage slowly stopped outside the eldest princess's mansion.
The emperor and empress entered the eldest princess's palace. The servants in the palace did not know the arrival of the Holy Emperor in advance, and they knelt on the ground in fear along the way.
Emperor Qingming took the queen directly to the residence of Princess Jingrong.
The servants in the courtyard saluted one after another.
"Yufeng has met your majesty and the queen." Princess Yufeng, who had been staying in the inner room, said in a slightly hoarse voice.
Xu Mingyi, who was on the side, followed suit.
"There is no need to adhere to these etiquette at this time." Emperor Qingming helped his niece up, looked at his sister on the bed, and asked: "How is Jingrong doing now?"
"Back to Your Majesty, Her Royal Highness the Princess shows no sign of waking up yet..."
Doctor Shan on the side reported anxiously: "And now I have a high fever again..."
Fortunately, having a high fever due to a brain injury is by no means a good sign.
"How could it be so seriously injured..." Emperor Qingming frowned and said, "I have already ordered people to summon Zhu Yuanjing to come. No matter what, we must not let anything happen to Jingrong this time -"
Doctor Shan bowed his head and responded "Yes", but he couldn't help but repeat it in his heart - the emperor was so sincere and worried, and for a moment he was not sure which sentence was true and which was false...
"Miss Xu is here too."
Emperor Qingming seemed to have just seen Xu Mingyi, and his eyes swept over Akui without leaving any trace.
The people from Zhenguo Duke's Mansion arrived just in time...
"Uncle, I asked someone to invite Miss Xu last night." Princess Yufeng explained: "I couldn't worry about my mother, so I left Miss Xu here to accompany me."
She has no interest in the entanglements in the court, but she is not completely ignorant of some taboos.
Emperor Qingming heard this and nodded slightly.
I see.
"Even the girl next to Miss Xu who has excellent medical skills doesn't have a good way to treat her?" He looked at Akui and asked.
Akui quickly bowed her head and replied: "Your Majesty, this servant is only familiar with some folk remedies. Her Royal Highness the Princess's injury is on the brain, and I can't think of a good way now..."
These words were told by the girl in advance, and she was told to say this to everyone.
Thank God, her girl finally allowed her to keep a low profile in front of others...
Emperor Qingming's eyes were full of disappointment, but he did not say anything to blame or express anger.
"It's so good, why did something like this happen..." The queen sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the person on the bed, her eyes full of worry.
"It's all about the one named Lan Zhu——"
At the mention of this, Princess Yufeng gnashed her teeth with hatred and repented: "This is a rip-off! I have told my mother to pay attention to this person a long time ago, but my mother refused to take it to heart. If I had gone there by myself,
I'll check it out carefully, and I won't put my mother in danger today!"
It’s all her fault that she didn’t really take Zhaozhao’s reminder to heart!
When Emperor Qingming heard this, his heart was slightly disturbed. He looked at his niece and asked seriously: "According to this, you have already noticed that something is wrong with this person earlier?"
