A Precious Pearl in the Imperial City

The sound of the board hitting the flesh is not crisp, but a dull sound.

"Your Majesty." Liu Zhongbao stepped forward and persuaded: "You have been busy for a whole day and night, so let's take a rest first."

"No need." Emperor Longfeng stood in front of the window, looking at the two sons who had been beaten, with a low voice: "I watched them finish the fight."

There was dead silence in the room. He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, it was the Qingming emperor again: "After the fight, send an imperial doctor to show them the injuries. Don't leave any symptoms."

"Your Majesty, don't worry, someone has already been sent to call the royal doctor." Liu Zhongbao supported Emperor Longfeng.

"A servant of the Zheng family, how many things did you ask?" Emperor Longfeng closed the window after seeing his two sons being carried on the sedan chair by the palace.

Liu Zhongbao's complexion changed slightly, and he took out the confessions of the two fugitives from his arms: "These have not been verified by the Dragon Guard, and I don't know whether they are true or not."

It is also possible for servants to rake the master's house, so without him, I can't guarantee how many of this appalling confession is true and how many are false.

"Bring it to me to see." Emperor Longfeng took the confession and read it carefully. The more he looked at it, the more gloomy his face became.

"Longfeng five years, Lingzhou..." Emperor Longfeng sneered: "The Zheng family is planning, no wonder he wants to kill people."

In the five years of Longfeng, in order to appease the officials and people in the south, he traveled south.

After that parade, he took the entire military power of Dacheng in his hands. From then on Dacheng began to develop in his imagination, but he did not expect that there was a conspiracy against his beloved concubine and son.

"Every plan is perfect." Scar repeated the same question countless times. In just one day, he lost a whole lot of weight, and his expression was dispirited. Whenever the Dragon Guard asked, he answered honestly.

"In order to assassinate Concubine Su's mother and son, we have arranged countless seamless plans." Scar's voice was hoarse: "But the plan I participated in had an accident."

"What's the accident?" the chief asked.

"A child." Scar licked his chapped lips, with indescribable hatred and regret in his tone: "A dead girl who came out of nowhere, she found us."

The commander's pressure intensified, and there was a little anger in his tone: "So you killed her?"

Scar did not deny: "The child was so strong that she almost let her escape. If we let her escape, we will all be dead, we can only kill her."

"Who told her to hear what shouldn't be heard, see what shouldn't be seen." When mentioning the little girl killed by him, Scar did not feel guilty: "Unfortunately, she couldn't be killed with a single knife, she could only tie her hands and feet. Shut up and throw her into the river."

"Beast!" The leader couldn't bear it, squeezed the pen in his hand, picked up the whip on the wall, and drew it at the scar: "You might as well kill her with a knife."

In such a cold weather, with his hands and feet **** and unable to shout, how painful and desperate should the child be before he died?

"Sir, like us who have been bought into the mansion since childhood, is there any choice?" Scar was convulsed with pain, he looked at the general angrily: "When I entered the mansion, it was better than that. The drowned girl is even younger, who has pityed us?"

The commander looked at the scarfaced man who had been completely dehumanized, walked back to the table with a calm face and sat down: "Go on, why did your plan fail?"

"I don't know the reason. I only know that Concubine Su and her son did not go to the restaurant to taste the food as planned. The assassination methods we planned were all useless." Scar's voice gradually became smaller: "Master Hou suspects us. A traitor appeared in the middle, killing several suspicious people. Since then, I have not been sent out to do anything."

"Why Concubine Su's mother and son didn't go as planned?"

"I don't know." Scar was convulsed with pain: "I don't know."

Seeing that he couldn't ask anything again, the commander-in-chief made the scar to be carried away in disgust, and turned to call in his men: "Can you find out the appearance of Concubine Su Gui in Lingzhou?"

The subordinate shook his head embarrassedly: "Boss, next to Concubine Su, there is a Dark Dragon Guard who was sent by your majesty to protect her secretly. After learning that we were checking Concubine Concubine, those two ladies came here just now and almost fought with our people ."

They are all the dragon guards under your majesty, why are those two women so fierce.

"The matter of Concubine Su will be delayed for the time being, and I will tell you after I report it to your Majesty." The chief's brows were cold and hard: "I didn't expect the Zheng family to have done so much in these years."

"Princess, the prince was carried back."

"What's the matter?" Sun Caiyao stood up: "Didn't the prince go to see the father?"

"The slave and maid did not know what happened. The prince was punished by his majesty, and the lower body was full of blood." The maid replied tremblingly: "The slave and maid asked the **** of the Taiyang Palace, and they didn't want to say anything."

"I'll go and see." Sun Caiyao was so flustered, she rushed into the house where King Qi lived and smelled a strong smell of blood. She reached out and grabbed a **** who had sent King Qi back: "How could the prince get hurt? what happened?"

"The princess concubine, please calm down." The little **** explained: "Your majesty has sent an imperial doctor to the princess to see the wounds. It is just a skin trauma. It will be fine for a period of time, and no bones and muscles have been injured."

Princess of the county?

What princess?

Sun Caiyao let go of the **** in a daze, and stared blankly at the man on the bed. Why is the man she loves the king of the county?

"Please take good care of the princess, the decree concerning the title of the princess will be issued soon." The little **** dared not look at the princess's complexion: "If the princess has nothing to say, the slave will return to the Taiyang Palace. Return to life."

"A father-in-law brought us home... the prince of the county came back." Sun Caiyao took out a silver slip and put it in the hands of the eunuch: "It is good that the prince is in good health."

"Little slave retire." The little **** stuffed the bank note into his sleeve, turned and left.

Sun Caiyao walked to the bed in a daze, took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from Yun Yanze's face, her eyes were slightly red.

Obviously in her dreams, His Royal Highness had never suffered such bad luck, why did it happen today?

She thought that as long as the prince avoided Ming Jiuzhu, he would be able to escape the fate of being killed by Ming Jiuzhu. Why did everything get worse after the prince and Ming Jiuzhu did not intersect?

What is wrong?

Did the dream lie to her, or because she was with His Royal Highness that made everything worse? !

"Niang, your Royal Highness asked you to send you a box of pearls." Xiangsi held a box, and Concubine Su opened the box to see that there were several pearl necklaces inside.

"These necklaces are so beautiful." Xiangjuan praised: "His Royal Highness is so careful."

"Where is he careful." Concubine Su picked one and put it to her neck and compared it: "You count, how many necklaces are there in total?"

Xiangjuan bowed his head and counted eight.

"There are eight in the box, one in my hand, and nine pearl necklaces." Concubine Su put the necklace back into the box: "Where is this to give me jewelry, clearly thinking about the future daughter-in-law, but she couldn't hold her face and said, begging me This mother, invited Jiuzhu into the palace to be a guest."

"She is still clever." Xiangjian smiled and shook her head: "The slave and maidservant were dull, but she didn't even think of it."

"It's not that you are stupid, it's that you know the son and the mother." Su Guifei picked up a necklace and put it on with a smile: "I am a mother, and if you accept his benefits, you can't help but do things for him. You take my post now and go. When Ming’s family picked up Jiuzhu, they said that I wanted to keep her in the palace for two days."

"The slave and maid will go now." Xiangjian smiled and joked before she quit, "I think the lady also wants to know the girl."

Concubine Su Gui smiled while stroking the pearl necklace. She looked at herself in the mirror, her gorgeous face was a little more gentle.

Wang Chen flicked the pearls on the table boredly, and finally swept all the pearls into the box impatiently.

I wonder if the mother concubine understands his suggestion?

In case he didn't understand, is he going to make it clear?

But if he goes to make it clear, does it seem that he really wants to see Ming Xiaozhu?

He walked around the yard twice and kicked the roots of the tree. Ming Xiaozhu was the county head, and he could also pass the post into the palace by himself. She didn't come, which only means that she had never thought of him at all.

It doesn't matter if you don't want him, he doesn't think about her much anyway.

Kicked twice at the root of the tree again, and Wang Chen turned and walked out of the yard.

"His Royal Highness, where are you going?"

"My king, go and see the fourth brother."

When he was in a bad mood, he went to visit the doctor. He was in a good mood when he saw that other brothers were not doing well.

The little **** hurriedly followed behind him, worried that his Royal Highness would accidentally anger Prince Qi directly.

"Miss." The vernal equinox looked at Jiuzhu puzzledly and stuffed all the silver pieces and many valuable gold hairpins into the box: "What are you doing with so much gold and silver into the palace?"

"Hush." ​​Jiuzhu held the box and hid it under the cloak: "Good sister, keep your voice down, don't let the aunt in the palace hear it."

"Miss Ming." XiangJian looked quite heavy when she saw Jiuzhu holding things out, "Slaves help you take them."

"Thank you, auntie." Jiuzhu clung to the wooden box tightly: "It's all small things, I'll just do it myself."

"Okay." Xiangjuan nodded, and smiled and helped Jiuzhu onto the carriage.

"Auntie." Jiuzhu strictly hid the wooden box behind the Greatcloak, "Can I go and see where your Royal Highness lives now?"

"Of course." Xiangjian glanced at the things in Jiuzhu's arms from the corner of his eyes: "From the Vermillion Bird Gate to the Chaoyang Gate, you can go to the Sixth Palace where your Highness lives. Later, we will bypass the Chaoyang Gate to see your Highness?"

"Okay, okay." Jiuzhu nodded quickly, and the dragonfly hairpin on his head fluttered and shook his wings, a little straightforward and cute.

Coming out of the Yunyanze courtyard refreshed, Wang Chen found a familiar little head dangling at the entrance of the courtyard. Seeing him, the girl at the door hurriedly jumped up on the spot: "Your Highness, Your Highness, here, here."

The corner of Wang Chen's mouth raised, he put his hand behind him, walked to Jiu Zhu, his chin raised slightly: "Why are you here?"

"Hall." Jiuzhu grabbed his sleeve and turned to smile at Xiangjuan: "Auntie, let me say a few words to your highness."

After that, she dragged Wang Chen away until she reached the corner of the wall, and then she squatted down: "Your Majesty, don't stand, squat down."

Wang Chen looked around, then looked at the mysterious Jiuzhu, touched his nose, and squatted down like her: "What's the matter?"

Nothing, I won't tell her, there are secret guards staring at this thing outside the yard.

With an expression of "show you baby" all over his face, Jiuzhu secretly opened the cloak.

"Liu Zhongbao." Emperor Longfeng stopped and looked at the two people who were squatting in the corner, heads to their heads and whispering: "Squatting there, it seems like my son and the Ming family girl?"

What are they doing there?

Are you learning three or four-year-old children, playing in the mud?

"His Majesty, it is indeed your Royal Highness and Ming County Master." Liu Zhongbao took a closer look, and thought with a bit of puzzlement. The Sixth Palace of Zhang is full of secret guards protecting the princes, and there is no need for His Highness and Ming County Master to make such mysterious things. Looks like, it's really unnecessary.

Emperor Longfeng began to worry that his son really took his little girl to play in the mud.
