The next day, after breakfast, Xie Jingyan went to the study and read for a long time before he went out slowly to give a gift to the eldest prince.
I went there at the right time. As soon as I arrived at the Prince of Qin's Mansion, I ran into the eldest prince coming out.
Seeing Xie Jingyan coming, the eldest prince was startled at first, then smiled and said, "Sixth brother, you are not passing by my Qin Palace, right?"
Xie Jingyan was also laughing, "Is it an unfortunate coincidence that I came, or is it too coincidental? Is there something that needs to be done outside the palace, Big Brother?"
Xie Jingyan's coming to the Prince of Qin's Mansion was enough to surprise the eldest prince, and he even called him "eldest brother", which directly confused the eldest prince.
They have never been brothers.
The eldest prince smiled and said, "Yes, I have some matters to attend to outside the palace, but since Sixth Prince is here, no matter how important the matter is, it will have to wait for a while. Please come in and talk."
Xie Jingyan turned over and got off the horse. The eldest prince asked, "Sixth brother is a rare guest in my Qin Palace. I can't even remember when you last came. What is the matter with you coming to see me today?"
Xie Jingyan said, "I'm here to give you something."
The eldest prince, "......???"
Give him something?
Why would you send him something for no reason?
The eldest prince asked, "What good thing did you bring me?"
At that time, the sound of wheels rolling was heard. Xie Jingyan looked back, and the eldest prince looked over and saw a servant pulling a carriage over with three large boxes on it.
That big box looks somewhat familiar.
The eldest prince was confused, "What is this...?"
Xie Jingyan said calmly, "My father asked me to send it here."
The eldest prince was even more confused. "Why did father ask the sixth prince to send me something?"
Such a small matter can be handled by any palace servant.
Besides, when will father be able to order the sixth prince around?
For some reason, a trace of uneasiness flashed through the eldest prince's heart.
Xie Jingyan said, "A month ago, the palace sent a lot of silk to my Prince Ling's mansion. My wife thought it was a reward from my father. Yesterday, she went to the palace to thank my father and found out that it was not the case. My father guessed that the palace servants sent it to the wrong place. It should be a reward from the Queen Mother to you, my eldest brother."
The eldest prince's eyes were a little flustered for a moment, and he tried his best to remain calm and said, "Even if it was sent to the wrong person, it's not a big deal. You can just keep it. Why did you have to send it to me specially?"
Xie Jingyan said, "My Lingwang Mansion has no shortage of silk and satin."
"I don't need it either," the eldest prince blurted out.
Xie Jingyan ordered Chen Feng, "Carry the things into the Qin Palace."
The servant untied the ropes and lifted the box off the carriage.
Seeing the box being carried over, the eldest prince hurriedly stopped it and said, "Sixth brother saved my life, there is no need to be so polite."
Xie Jingyan smiled, his smile was so light that it didn't reach his eyes, "I have delivered it all, but my eldest brother wants me to take it back as it is. This is really being polite."
Indeed, it would have been fine if it had not been delivered, but they were specially delivered and asked to take it back. Given their status, they would not take a few pieces of silk seriously.
The more abnormal it is, the more suspicious it will arouse.
The eldest prince said, "Since my sixth brother insisted that I accept it, I will accept it."
At worst, I can just burn it along with the box.
The eldest prince had good intentions, but the servants in Prince Ling's mansion were clumsy. When they were unloading the second box from the carriage, they accidentally dropped it, and the box fell to the ground, and the silk fell out.
Chen Feng scolded, "How can you do this? You can't even lift a box properly. Isn't this embarrassing for the prince?!"
The servant quickly admitted his mistake.
Chen Feng asked the servants of the Prince of Qin's mansion to help pick up the silk.
The eldest prince's forehead was throbbing when he saw this scene. Xie Jingyan said, "I'm making fun of you, my eldest brother."
The eldest prince tried his best to keep a smile on his face and invited Xie Jingyan into the palace.
When entering the mansion, he gave a wink to his guards.
The two walked towards the study. When they reached the door of the study, a servant ran up behind them and said, "Your Majesty, your guards and Prince Ling's guards are fighting."
The eldest prince looked unhappy, "Why did they start a fight?!"
The servant said, "The guards wanted to take the silk and the carriage to the backyard, but Prince Ling's guards said it was a reward from the Queen Mother and it would be inappropriate not to bring it into the mansion through the main gate, so they insisted on carrying it in. The guards blocked the door and refused to let them in, and then the two started fighting..."
The servants all found it very strange.
Why did the prince's guards stop Prince Ling's men from carrying the silk into the palace through the main gate? Isn't this just looking for trouble?
Prince Ling's guard was right. It was indeed inappropriate for the Queen Mother's reward to enter the palace from the backyard.
The eldest prince was furious, and Xie Jingyan said, "Are you so afraid of these silks entering your Qin Palace?"
The eldest prince said awkwardly, "I heard that there was smallpox in your Prince Ling's mansion and several embroiderers died in the embroidery room. I am a little worried..."
Xie Jingyan said indifferently, "Everyone knows that there was smallpox in my Lingwang Mansion. If I send silk and satin to infect your Qinwang Mansion, I will be held responsible. No one has touched these silks since they were delivered to the mansion, so you can rest assured."
The eldest prince said, "I'm not worried, but it's better to be safe than sorry..."
Before the eldest prince could finish his words, the guard came over quickly and whispered something in his ear.
The eldest prince suddenly looked at Xie Jingyan, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.
Xie Jingyan said, "Not pretending anymore?"
The eldest prince's eyes were cold.
He didn't want to break up with Xie Jingyan openly, but Xie Jingyan not only sent the silks, he also tied up the maids from the Empress Dowager's palace and put them in boxes and sent them to him. He had already found out that he was the one who caused the smallpox outbreak in Prince Ling's mansion.
But he is not afraid of being found out. Since he dares to do it, he is naturally prepared for failure.
The eldest prince said, "I don't want to be your enemy, but I am determined to get the position of crown prince."
"You saved my life. If you are willing to give up, I will make sure you are second to none."
Xie Jingyan laughed when he heard this, "Does the eldest prince think I'm so easy to fool?"
The eldest prince was so angry that he said, "I advise my sixth brother to be more tactful. This is the Prince Qin's residence, not your Prince Ling's residence. I can make you come here with your life but lose your life... Go back..."
Before he could finish his words, Xie Jingyan grabbed his neck.
Xie Jingyan acted extremely quickly, and before the guards standing beside the eldest prince could react, the eldest prince was captured.
Standing in front of him and threatening him, Xie Jingyan had never seen such a stupid person, "Why don't you continue talking?"
Kill people and kill your heart.
The eldest prince's neck was strangled and he couldn't even breathe, let alone speak.
The eldest prince's face turned frighteningly green.
The guards drew their swords, and the secret guards in the dark also appeared and surrounded Xie Jingyan.
The guards said, "If you kill the eldest prince, we will not let you, Prince Ling, leave the Qin Palace alive!"
Xie Jingyan laughed, "Do you think you can stop me?"
Xie Jingyan looked at the eldest prince, "The master is naive, and the people around him are also naive."
The eldest prince was forced to raise his neck. Xie Jingyan loosened his grip a little, and the eldest prince was able to speak. He said, "Kill me. Even if you can escape, you will surely die!"
"is it?"
The eldest prince said, "If you could have convicted me based on just a palace maid and those silks, you wouldn't have sent her to my Qin Palace."
"Let me go, I'll take you out of the house, and we'll pretend that what happened today never happened."
Xie Jingyan smiled.
But he also loosened his grip.
The eldest prince coughed several times.
The two of them seemed to act as if nothing had happened.
The eldest prince escorted Xie Jingyan out of the palace.
Chen Feng was waiting at the gate with his horse.
Xie Jingyan climbed onto his horse and said to the eldest prince with a smile, "Tomorrow, I will give you another surprise."
