When Ning Huan woke up the next day, the sky was already bright.

The pain in his body has not been relieved, he is heavy and weak from the waist down, and his whole body seems to be chopped by an axe.

Grasping the brocade quilt with her slender fingers, the knuckles were even faintly tinged with blue. Ning Huan lay on the pillow, her shallow and long eyes could not help but narrow slightly.

He lost his composure last night, because Mu Jinyu entered too hastily and his feelings came too quickly, Ning Huan's mind went blank, and he didn't think of the deep meaning of the other party's sudden action at all.

Maybe I thought of it, but I didn't think about it.

Ning Huan knew that Mu Jinyu's brains and methods were no less than his own, and he could fully prove this point if he lost his heart and body.

Axi came in from the outside: "His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, will have to leave before dawn to rectify the troops, and leave me to serve you. Crown Princess, do you want to get up?"

Ning Huan was leaning against the soft pillow, which was embroidered with Bingdilian, and was stained with the faint and cool fragrance of his body.At this moment, he was tired and weak, he didn't want to do anything, and he didn't want to think more, his eyes closed slightly, and his eyelashes cast a small shadow: "Pour tea."

Axi quickly poured a cup of warm tea.

Ning Huan stretched out a hand from under the quilt.

Ah Xi didn't know where to turn his eyes. He knew the true identity of this person. The reason why Mu Jinyu kept him to serve Ning Huan instead of letting Die Qing serve Ning Huan was because Ah Xi was an eunuch. Yu is very jealous and doesn't like the opposite sex to be too close to Ning Huan. Naturally, good-looking men with roots can't get close.

This hand was exposed, and there was also a beautifully lined arm exposed. The ice and snow were so white that it seemed to melt in the midair. Teeth marks can be seen on the fingertips.

Ning Huan took a sip of tea weakly and regained his composure a little: "When will the prince come back?"

Ah Xi sighed and said: "Who knows what's going on ahead, please rest first, Crown Princess, the Crown Prince asked me to take good care of you."

......

In the clear sky, the sound of an eagle screaming frightened the sky, Mu Jinyu slashed the deer's throat with a sword in front of the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs, blood gushed out, and everyone took cups to catch the deer blood.

The emperor sat firmly on it. Although there were constant rumors in the army, he still didn't say anything more these two days. He treated Lang Yan and the people of Dongwo country as before, and didn't mention anything about Princess Lang Fu.

Mu Jinyu was dressed in a military uniform, and he specially clinked glasses with Yue Wang: "I heard that you have gained a lot this time, but it's a pity that I was ill alone two days ago, and I couldn't see your heroic appearance on the hunting ground. It's a pity."

Yue Wang was a little guilty, he didn't dare to look at Mu Jinyu directly, he just raised his head and took a sip of the fresh deer blood wine.

The bloody breath entered his throat, and Yue Wang felt a little hopeful in his heart.

A few days ago, the emperor suddenly called him over, and the two were frank and honest. The emperor admitted that King Yue was the heir apparent in his mind. Give it to Yue Wang.After being affirmed by the emperor, King Yue felt that he was very close to the throne.

As long as Mu Jinyu dies suddenly in an accident - the crown prince will be his.

There were two falcons circling in the sky. Hunting occasions have always been inseparable from eagles and dogs, but many people's eyes fell on these two falcons.

Some princes and ministers got more or less news from various people two days ago, saying that the emperor wanted to get rid of the prince in today's ceremony, and the means of getting rid of the prince were these two sea dongqings.

There are quite a few people who know it, but those who know it are either old fritters who maintain neutrality, or are timid and cowardly who dare not cause trouble, and they only know in their hearts that the emperor wants to kill the prince.

King Yue always felt that something was wrong, was he too close to the prince?Why did the prince keep talking to him today?

The two are brothers, it is natural to walk together, and it is natural to talk together, but Yue Wang has no such plan, he is afraid that he will be hurt when danger comes.

So after speaking a few words with Mu Jinyu, King Yue wanted to go back to his subordinates.

At this time, the falcon trainer has given clear instructions to the falcon flying in the sky in the dark.

Two fierce and tyrannical falcons suddenly swooped down and grabbed Mu Jinyu and King Yue.Because the time was too short, all this happened so hastily that the surrounding guards had no time to protect them.

Mu Jinyu's strong martial arts skills have been practiced in the northern border for another year. Of course, his skills are not comparable to ordinary people.The falcon's claws scratched his clothes in an instant, and in the next moment a cold light flashed, and the falcon's claws were cut off by him and fell to the ground.

After the raptor lost its claws, it struggled and rolled on the ground in pain.

King Yue's martial arts and reflexes were far inferior to Mu Jinyu's. His face was scratched by sharp eagle claws, his arms and chest were cut open, and the eagle's beak pecked at his eyes. Blood dripped, and he screamed in pain. One sound.

Mu Jinyu swung his sword and beheaded the second falcon.

There was instant chaos on the field, and Mu Jinyu and Yue Wang's subordinates crowded up respectively.

Everything happened in a blink of an eye. The emperor's face was filled with a gloomy and confident smile, but at this moment his expression suddenly collapsed, and he couldn't believe his eyes.

Mu Jinyu covered his arm: "There is poison on the eagle's claws, whose are these two falcons?"

The eagle's claws were highly poisonous. Mu Jinyu's clothes were scratched, and the poison seeped in instantly. At this moment, his face was gray and his lips were purple.

Fortunately, his arm was only scratched, and the injury was not too deep, and he was still able to speak normally at this time.

King Yue was on the verge of dying, he was blinded by an eagle, and the old man of the Shen family who came forward to watch took a look at King Yue and passed out. Concubine Shen's elder brother kept yelling for the imperial doctor to come over immediately, the poison took place too quickly So much so that King Yue twitched all over his body.

Mu Jinyu secretly sneered.

The imperial physician came soon, and it was Zhong Jin and Zhao Yi who came. The emperor didn't trust Zhao Yi very much, but he absolutely trusted Zhong Jin.

The emperor said: "There are many people here, first bring King Yue into the tent for treatment."

Zhong Jin inspected it and said: "Your Majesty, King Yue and His Royal Highness are poisoned by severe poison. This poison comes from Dongwo Kingdom. The prince's injury is relatively minor and can be relieved by taking medicine. His Royal Highness Yue's arm must be cut off immediately— —”

In order to put the blame on the entire group of Dongwo Kingdom, the poison on the eagle's claws is indeed the formula of Dongwo Kingdom, which was prepared by Imperial Physician Wu of the Imperial Pharmacy.It is impossible to say that there is no cure, but Imperial Physician Wu has an antidote.

But under the watchful eyes of everyone, the emperor could not say that he had an antidote.

King Yue's face was bloody and his lips were trembling: "Father, save me! Father..."

The emperor said: "Take it into the tent first, I know you will be able to figure out a way, if you can't save King Yue, I will let you all be buried with you!"

Mu Jinyu gave the following a look.

Qiu Changyu, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, jumped out first: "Your Majesty, this matter is related to the safety of the prince, and must be strictly investigated!"

Zhongshu ordered Jia Ting and the Minister of the Ministry of Officials to also appear on the list: "The real culprit must be severely punished! Your Majesty, please arrange officials to investigate this matter immediately!"

The emperor gritted his teeth: "Catch a group of people from Dongwo Kingdom, and detain them first!"

Lang Yan didn't understand what happened at all, he knew nothing about it.But when he saw the situation in front of him, he also realized that he had become the role of the scapegoat. He was about to open his mouth to question the emperor, but a general immediately gave him a fist and blocked his mouth with a cloth strip.

"Lang Fu broke into my tent without shame and was killed. Lang Yan held a grudge, and actually made a poisonous plan to hurt the prince and King Yue." The emperor's cold eyes swept over the Dongwo people, "I will definitely wipe out your country."

The emperor had already laid the blame on Lang Yan, so the matter was naturally left alone and there was no need for further investigation.

Zhongshu Ling Jia Ting and Dali Temple Minister have been officials in the court for many years. They have always understood the emperor's behavior. The matter has not been thoroughly investigated, even if the real murderer is right in front of him, the emperor should not jump to conclusions.

Jia Ting said: "Your Majesty, this matter needs to be thoroughly investigated by the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple. The safety of the Crown Prince should not be underestimated."

The emperor said coldly: "Take King Yue in first!"

Yue Wang has passed out, and it looks like he is dying.

Mu Jinyu's condition was not very good either, the poison on the eagle's claws was very strong, his head was dizzy for a while, and he passed out in front of everyone.

Thinking of Mu Jinyu's life-saving grace that day, Jia Ting hurried up with other ministers to check on the prince's situation: "Your Highness!"

All the emperor's attention was on King Yue, and together with the imperial physician, he led King Yue into the camp, leaving other ministers to take care of Mu Jinyu.

Mu Jinyu was then sent to the camp.

Jia Ting used to be on duty at Dali Temple, and has always had a good relationship with the current Dali Temple Minister, and the two of them got in between Mu Jinyu's subordinates.

The prince's face turned blue, and Zhao Yi, the imperial physician at the side, gave the prince an injection to force out the poisonous blood. A general under Mu Jinyu said cursingly: "I eavesdropped on the eunuch next to your majesty the day before yesterday. He said that your majesty planned to use Haidongqing to hurt the prince. Prince, blame the people of Dongwo Kingdom again. After I told the prince, the prince said that I alienated his father-son relationship with His Majesty, and he never believed that His Majesty would do this. Now it seems that it has come true! King Yue is too close to the prince , so he was also scratched, but fortunately the prince reacted quickly so it was not as serious as Yue Wang."

Jia Ting's face darkened: "Shut up! How can you slander Your Majesty?"

"Lord Jia, why are you here? Master Liu is here too?" the general said, "I am wronged, I did not slander Your Majesty, but I overheard what the eunuch next to His Majesty said. If you don't believe me, ask Master Liu to investigate How about it? It just so happens that Mr. Liu is the Minister of Dali Temple, and he is best at investigating this, and you used to work in Dali Temple."

Another official echoed: "That's right, Your Majesty is so abnormal today, why don't you let us investigate? Besides, Your Majesty only looks at the situation of King Yue, completely ignoring our Crown Prince. Obviously, His Highness the Crown Prince is the Crown Prince."

"..."

The group under the crown prince was full of complaints, and Jia Ting didn't argue with them. He came out of it after hearing that the crown prince's condition was not particularly serious.

After coming out, Jia Ting said to Dali Temple Secretary: "How likely do you think His Majesty is manipulating this matter behind the scenes?"

The Minister of Dali Temple closed his eyes: "Master Jia, I also heard that falcon trainer talk about this matter that day, because it was written by His Majesty, and His Majesty wanted to kill the prince. I have been afraid to say anything these days."

Jia Ting's face changed again and again: "What? Your Majesty wants to kill the prince? It's ridiculous! It's too ridiculous!"

To be honest, the emperor's recent actions made all the ministers very dissatisfied.

The matter of Princess Lang Fu had already made them feel disappointed in the emperor. They did not expect that the majestic king of a country would use this method to murder the prince.

Dali Temple Minister was silent for a moment: "You should know the prince's life experience, His Majesty may be afraid of this."

Jia Ting gritted his teeth and said, "No matter who the crown prince is, he is the most orthodox candidate and the best candidate for the late emperor. This position was originally the late emperor's."

Originally, Jia Ting looked down on Mu Jinyu, thinking that Mu Jinyu was not enterprising and had a brutal temperament. After this autumn hunt, he suddenly realized that he knows people, faces, but not his heart. It turns out that His Royal Highness is a kind-hearted, wise and foolish person.

The two had always had grievances, but the prince rescued himself from the tiger's mouth regardless of the previous suspicions.Knowing that the emperor wanted to kill him, the prince cared about the father-son relationship and excused the emperor, thinking that the emperor would not do such a thing.

Jia Ting's thinking has changed, and the positions of other ministers in the court are also gradually changing. Those who once supported King Yue will inevitably turn against the prince.

Even if King Yue survived the catastrophe, he was blind in one eye, so he could no longer fight for the throne.According to the regulations of the first emperor, princes with physical disabilities cannot inherit the throne, and the emperors of the Daluo Dynasty must at least have upright and dignified facial features without defects.

The emperor is also the face of the Daluo Dynasty, and the people and ministers can't tolerate a king who is physically ill.

Since King Yue is not destined for the throne, and the fifth prince has been abolished from the throne, the Shen family has no hope at all.

When Ning Huan woke up, he heard that Yue Wang was gone.

Originally, Ninghuan didn't plan too much for this autumn hunt. The only thing he designed was Zhongshuling Jia Ting's appearance.Although Lang Fu was arranged by Ning Huan, in the final analysis it was her own death.

When it was almost over, Ning Huan realized that Mu Jinyu had planned such a beautiful scene.

It is also very likely that it is a temporary arrangement to achieve maximum benefits in a short period of time.

It was indeed a success.

Ning Huan knew how painful the emperor was without having to imagine.Many of Mu Jinyu's misfortunes are rooted in the emperor, and the emperor's pain is probably Mu Jinyu's nourishment. Looking at the other party's pain, Mu Jinyu should be very happy and refreshing at this time.

Ning Huan was wearing thin clothes, he stirred the bird's nest in his hand, lowered his eyes and said: "Why hasn't the prince come back yet?"

"Back to the princess, the prince was injured, he was also scratched by the eagle's claws, and he was poisoned," Chu He explained to Ning Huan, "Now the prince is in such pain that he is dying from the poison, and he can hardly survive. There is really no way, the crown prince needs to win the sympathy of the ministers, in order to use the bitter trick to be realistic and test the poison himself. Alas, His Royal Highness is really amazing."
