Feng Laiyi

Not long after, Haoxiang came to Beizi Mansion, but was told that Duolong "can't see anyone". Of course, Haoxiang didn't know that it was because Duolong was banned by the emperor. I was embarrassed to see him for the farce.

"I'm sorry to bother you to pass it on to Bei Zitong again, just say that I have something very urgent and I must see him." Hao Xiang shook his hand and said to the butler Wang Zhong.

Although Wang Zhong knew that Haoxiang and Duolong Suri were very close, but he also knew that his master was restrained by today's Wansui and he couldn't see outsiders, so he told Haoxiang the truth.

"Confinement?" Haoxiang frowned, but he didn't expect this to happen. After thinking for a while, he asked, "When will Beizi be grounded?"

"It's been three days." Wang Zhong replied respectfully.

"Well, I see, I'm sorry to trouble you." Hao Xiang nodded, and then left.

"Duolong was banned by the emperor for three days, and my elder brother disappeared for three days. Could it be related?" After returning to Prince Shuo's mansion, Hao Xiang went to the study to find Yue Li, and told him the matter.

Yue Li frowned, faintly felt that something was wrong, thought about it a few times, and asked Hao Xiang, "Hao Xiang, what do you think of this matter?"

"Returning to Ama, my son thought that although the steward of Beizi Mansion did not say why Duolong was grounded, I think it was probably because of the Longyuan Building, and no matter how well-informed the emperor was, he would not I know what happened, so..." Haoxiang paused for a moment, looked up at Yue Li, and said in a deep voice: "My son dared to guess that the emperor was in Longyuan Tower that day."

After hearing Hao Xiang's words, Yue Li didn't answer right away. He just lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking. After a while, he raised his head and said with an unpredictable expression: "You mean... Hao Zhen's What you did was also seen by the emperor?"

"I'm afraid that's exactly the case." Haoxiang replied, with a slightly worried look on his face. Although his own Ama always favored Haozhen since childhood, he often ignored his existence, but in Haoxiang's opinion Well, after all, Hao Zhen is his half-brother, and now that something happened, he is really worried.

Yue Li looked at Haoxiang, but he was a little surprised. His two sons, Haozhen has always been outstanding since childhood, while Haoxiang has always been unknown, especially after the incident of catching and releasing the white fox. Haozhen's brilliance As if occupying his whole heart, he squeezed Haoxiang out completely. Since then, he seemed to only see Haozhen as a child, and forgot about Haoxiang.

However, Haoxiang's performance today made Yue Li almost completely overthrow his previous opinion of Haoxiang. He suddenly thought that eight years ago, when Haozhen let go of the white fox and came back with nothing to gain, he was praised by everyone. Fucha Haoxiang's youngest son hunted a brown long-haired rabbit, and then took it to someone to make a hat from the fur and gave it to him happily, but at that time he was only immersed in Haozhen's kindness , proud and proud of his eldest son, but threw aside the hat his younger son gave him.

"It's already autumn. I don't know if it will be very cold this winter. If I take out that hat and put it on, it must be quite warm." Yue Li suddenly had such an idea in his mind.

"Ama?" Seeing that Yue Li did not speak for a long time, Hao Xiang was a little puzzled, and called out cautiously.

"Huh?" Yue Li came back to his senses, and answered in confusion, looked up and saw Haoxiang looking at him in surprise, then saved himself, waved his hand and said: "Forget it, it's not early today, why don't you I'm going to rest, and I'll go to the emperor to find out after the court tomorrow."

"Yes, Ama, that son will leave first." Haoxiang hurriedly bowed and saluted.

"En." Yue Li nodded, looking at Haoxiang's leaving back, he suddenly felt that he had treated his son badly in the past 20 years.

On the second day after the morning court, Yue Li went to see Qianlong outside the Imperial Study Room. After listening to the eunuch's biography, Qianlong guessed the purpose of Yue Li's visit, thinking that Hao Zhen had been locked up for the past few days, and he probably ate it too. Although he still felt uncomfortable, it was not a problem to keep holding Prince Shuo's son all the time, so he announced Yue Li to come in, and then turned away the people around him.

"Yue Li, why are you looking for me? Why didn't you play the book earlier?" Qianlong asked knowingly.

"Your Majesty, this slave will die forever." Yue Li knelt on the ground with a plop and kowtowed.

"Oh?" Qianlong sneered, and said, "I don't know what happened to Prince Shuo, so that Wan died."

"The emperor is very careful." Yue Li heard that Qianlong's tone was not friendly, and he was sure that Haozhen's disappearance was related to Qianlong. He only felt a thin layer of cold sweat on his forehead. Yuanlou has committed a crime, and this servant has come here to plead guilty."

Now that Qianlong heard the name Fucha Haozhen, he felt angry, but he glanced at Yue Li who was lying on the ground, thinking of the contributions he, the prince, had made for the Qing Dynasty, he sighed, and said, "You Get up first."

"I don't dare." Yue Li still knelt on the ground, kowtowed again, and said, "I have the guts to beg the emperor to forgive him for the sake of the rebellious son's first crime. After he returns to the mansion, the slave will definitely take care punish him."

"Get up if I tell you to get up!" Qianlong frowned and raised his voice, Yue Li didn't dare to disobey any more, so he had to stand up and stood aside with his hands down.

Qianlong was also muttering in his heart, in fact, although Haozhen beat up Duolong for Bai Yinshuang in Longyuan Tower, Qianlong, who knew everything that happened, understood that Haozhen was not at fault at all, and the reason why he locked Haozhen up In the prison of the clan's mansion, it was all because Hao Zhen had offended his beloved daughter, He Chun. In a few days, he must have some introspection, since Yue Li has found him, why not let Hao Zhen go as a favor.

At this point, Qianlong opened his mouth and said to Yue Li: "Prince Shuo is also shrewd, he guessed that your son was sent to be disciplined by me, that's all, I will not pursue this matter, if there is another time, I will definitely not Qingrao, when the time comes, you will have to be punished for lax discipline."

"Slave, thank the emperor for his kindness." Yue Li heaved a sigh of relief when he heard what the emperor meant, and hurriedly knelt down again to thank him.

"Go back to the palace and wait." After Qianlong finished speaking, he picked up a brush and began to review the papers. Yue Li didn't dare to say any more, so he left.

The Zongren Mansion accepted Qianlong's order and released Haozhen in the afternoon. Haozhen was imprisoned for some unknown reason, and no matter how much he yelled in the prison, everyone ignored him. , when he was released, he kept yelling, "I will definitely make you look good." The jailers of the clan mansion pretended not to hear them, dragged Hao Zhen out of the clan mansion and threw them on the street, then turned around and went back, thinking What do you think this is?How can I let you play wild?

After Haozhen cursed and cursed for a while, he just felt hungry and had no strength in his body. Also, during the few days in prison, although the jailer gave him prison meals on time every day, Haozhen was raised by Prince Shuo since he was a child. Lord Baylor in the mansion, how could he have eaten such rough pickled vegetables without even taking a bite. Fortunately, he has practiced martial arts with Akdan for more than ten years, and his body is not bad, so he didn't collapse.It's just that the door of the Zongren's Mansion is still closed, so Hao Zhen can only stop in resentment, turn around and walk in the direction of Prince Shuo's Mansion.

"I'm back." Hao Zhen shouted after entering the gate of the palace, thinking about the delicious food in the mansion, his stomach growled.

Before the voice fell, a few guards from the palace came up and took him down, and tied up Haozhen without saying a word. Haozhen felt his head was in a daze, and he didn't know what happened. Realizing that he was being pushed towards the dungeon of the palace, he struggled and yelled: "You gang of dog slaves! What are you trying to do to Lord Ben Belle! How dare you do the same thing! You still want to kill your dogs!"

It's just that no matter how Hao Zhen yelled, these guards turned a deaf ear to them. After Hao Zhen was forced to kneel down in the execution room of the dungeon, he heard a voice from above his head - "Bold and treacherous, you are guilty!"

No one knew exactly what happened in the execution room of Prince Shuo's mansion that day, because Prince Shuo shunned everyone, leaving only him and Hao Zhen.

That day, as long as Prince Shuo's mansion was a little closer to the dungeon, the servants with sharper ears could hear the miserable screams coming from the dungeon, which lasted for two hours.

Xueru didn't know that Haozhen had returned, she was under house arrest in her room, and because her room was far away from the dungeon of the palace, she didn't hear the screams, Xueru just sat there in a daze, dressing Looking at the young woman in the bronze mirror who still has charm in front of the mirror, she weeps.

The author has something to say: TT I am sorry that I have been busy with work for the past two days and it will be late to update, but I will still insist on updating every day. Although this chapter has passed 24:12, it is really for December 30th. ...There will be an update on the 31st...

--I forgot to mention it just now. I don’t know if some relatives feel a little wrong about Fukang’an and Yue Li calling themselves slaves. In fact, this is because they are all ministers. In the Qing Dynasty, all ministers called themselves slaves. This is because the Qing Dynasty implemented the Eight Banners system. The Eight Banners system is actually a remnant of slavery. In the banners, the banner owner is respected, and everyone else is the slave of the banner owner.Don't look at Manchen's claim to be a slave, in fact, it means that he has a close relationship with the emperor.Hanchens also had self-proclaimed slaves. Bannermen of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty could call themselves slaves. Hanchens without banner registration were not allowed to call themselves slaves.
