Houfu Key Class

Chapter 347: Dethroning the Crown Prince?

Xu Wan was shocked that he dared to say anything nonsense. She quickly kicked him under the table and said through gritted teeth: "Eat your food."

He is a small talker who cares about everything, even his father.

Zong Zhao asked aloud: "What did you write on the lantern just now?" He could hear the two of them talking, but obviously Xu Wan fell silent after reading this boy's poem, so he didn't know the content.

The little devil immediately recited his newly written poem excitedly. Zong Zhao finally managed to hold back a sentence, but was silenced again. When he turned around, he saw that Xu Wan had plugged his ears skillfully. He was severely poisoned.

He couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, and his smile was so shallow that it was almost unnoticeable.

Xu Wan raised her head and saw him smiling. She also smiled and said to Zong Jincheng, "Look, your father is laughing at you too."

The little devil was immediately confused: "Dad, where did you laugh? Why didn't I see it?"

Xu Wan complained: "Go to the government doctor to check your eyes."

Zong Jincheng didn't believe in evil. He stared at Zong Zhao and studied hard, and then said: "Do all people with facial paralysis smile like this? It's not obvious. Has Qin Ye ever smiled like this?"

He always felt that he saw Qin Ye showing a similar expression during the last debate.

Xu Wan replied: "I don't know, can you observe it next time?"

Zong Jincheng made a sound and said: "Whoever wants to observe him, whether he likes to smile or not, will be defeated."

Zong Zhao suddenly said: "Isn't Qin Ye always number one?"

"You know all this?" Xu Wan was surprised. Zong Zhao had never been to a key class and rarely asked about Jin Cheng's studies. He didn't expect that even Qin Ye knew about it.

The little devil immediately exploded: "I beat him! I beat him! He's not always number one! Dad, just wait and see. I will step on him and crush him hard when you try it later!" !”

Zong Zhao glanced at him and said, "Don't you know that you are not good at poetry?" That's why he only dared to say that he could try and did not mention Qiu Wei.

The little devil immediately cried with a sad face: "Dad, you are a little too good at grasping the key points. I am your son, can't you just let me..."

Zong Zhao nodded and encouraged: "Then work hard and try to prevent Qiu Wei from losing too badly."

Little Devil: "!!!"

"What a shame and humiliation!!" Zong Jincheng, who was stepped on on the painful spot, immediately stood up and howled, "I won't eat anymore, I have to go back and make up my poetry! Damn Qin Ye, just wait for this young master to show off his talents!"

Seeing that Zong Zhao was eating his meal calmly after making the little kid angry, Xu Wan strongly suspected that he was retaliating for the little devil's nonsense, but she had no evidence.

In the afternoon, Zong Zhao went to the East Palace to see the crown prince as scheduled, and took Xu Wan with him. As usual, he went in alone, leaving Xu Wan to accompany the crown prince.

Different from the calmness in the past, Xu Wan clearly felt that the Crown Princess was worried, and there was an uncontrollable sadness between her eyebrows. She asked kindly: "What has the Queen been worried about recently? Is the little princess okay?"

The princess replied: "The princess is being taken care of by a wet nurse, so there is nothing to worry about. It's just that Your Highness has been in a coma for almost three months. Zong Zhao clearly said at the beginning that he would wake up after a while..."

She originally believed in Zong Zhao, and she was willing to wait for His Highness no matter how long it took. But a few days ago, rumors spread in the palace that it would take ten or eight years for His Highness to wake up, or maybe he would never wake up in his lifetime. She suddenly panicked. She was afraid that Zong Zhao's original words were to comfort her or lie to her.

Xu Wan didn't know what was going on, but based on her understanding of Zong Zhao, this person was very reliable. If he said he would wake up after a while, there shouldn't be much difference.

So she also comforted the Crown Princess: "Don't think too much, Your Majesty. The more you think about many things, the more anxious you become. In fact, they are not that serious in the first place. Your Highness Ji Ren has his own destiny, and he will definitely wake up soon."

Indoors, after Zong Zhao gave the prince acupuncture, he did not get up and leave immediately. Instead, he sat quietly by the bed for a while, thinking about the days when the two of them practiced martial arts and hunted together when they were young. He has been in bed for more than ten years.

Zong Zhao clenched his fingers, and then slowly loosened them. He said softly: "Your Highness, wait a moment."

As soon as Zong Zhao came out of the outer hall, the Crown Princess hurriedly came to greet him and asked: "How is it going? Is Your Highness feeling better?"

Zong Zhao replied: "It's getting better, please take good care of me."

The Crown Princess bit her lip and said in a trembling voice: "Zong Zhao, by how much better do you mean by getting better? Does it really take ten or eight years to get better before you wake up?"

Zong Zhao asked: "Did your Majesty hear the rumors in the palace?"

The Crown Princess said with red eyes: "It's not just rumors in the palace. Who among the civil and military officials doesn't know about it? Luo Jingfeng took advantage of this and encouraged the courtiers to propose to the Emperor that he should abolish the Crown Prince, saying that the Crown Prince of the Imperial Court must not be a A person who will never wake up. Why did Luo Jingfeng say this? Was it really him who poisoned you? "Why are you and Luo Jingfeng together?"

The Crown Princess was panicked. The turmoil in the court overturned her original suspicion. She was wondering if it was really Luo Jingfeng who did it. However, the Highness Zong Zhao had originally promised soon woke up and also died because of Luo Jingfeng. It became a long way off.

She couldn't believe that Zong Zhao would give up saving His Highness, and she couldn't believe that His Highness would really not wake up, so she had to ask clearly, which side Zong Zhao was from.

The air pressure in the main hall was extremely low. Xu Wan could understand the Crown Princess's mood. With the turmoil in the court and the pressure from Luo Jingfeng, the pressure in the East Palace was extremely great, and it was no longer something that the Duke of Wei could protect.

"Your Majesty," Zong Zhao said with his back to her, "I told you that you can only focus on taking care of His Highness. Leave matters outside of the East Palace to me."

There is another sentence at the end: I will return justice to His Highness.

Zong Zhao and Xu Wan left the Eastern Palace. The Crown Princess squatted on the ground weakly, sobbing silently.

She remembered clearly that when the Eastern Palace was in the most desperate time, it was Zong Zhao who rushed back day and night and gave her and His Highness hope. If Zong Zhao was really Luo Jingfeng's man, he would not have needed to do this at all.

The General's Mansion.

As soon as Xu Wan arrived at the courtyard, she asked hesitantly: "If the Crown Princess knew about Jin Cheng, would she not be so sad? Or, should you tell her, it won't take ten or eight years?"

Zong Zhao whispered: "The Crown Princess is smart, and she can figure it out quickly just by saying this. Besides, knowing too much is not good for her, and this is not what Your Highness wants."

Xu Wan nodded, and then commented: "Luo Jingfeng is really something, why does he want to make trouble for the Crown Prince whenever he gets the chance, and the East Palace is now powerless to fight back."

Zong Zhao whispered: "Because the position of the crown prince cannot be occupied, Your Highness's position is blocking the way for the Luo family."

Xu Wan said dissatisfiedly: "Jin Cheng likes Your Highness very much, and always shouts that she wants to be a second-rank official in the future, so as to share the worries and difficulties of Your Highness. As a result, Luo Jingfeng tried hard to pull Your Highness down, which was contrary to Jin Cheng's idea. Even so, he still wanted to reconcile with Jin Cheng. Jin Cheng didn't fight with him when they met, which was considered a good temper."
