sick princess

"Suicide in fear of crime? Hmph, what a suicide in fear of crime! I have underestimated this girl Pingning, there are so many people willing to die for this girl!" Emperor Yongjia heavily swept the inkstone on the table on the ground, The court ladies and eunuchs around were all silent, not daring to offend Emperor Yongjia at this time: "No, this girl borrowed from her uncle after all. It should be said that my uncle is really a good trick."

"The humble official is not good for guarding, please punish the emperor." Dali Siqing can keep silent, but the minister of the Ministry of punishment has to keep silent, after all, the accident happened in the prison of the Ministry of punishment.

Emperor Yongjia glanced at him: "We will discuss your case later. The most important thing right now is how the case will proceed after the driver died."

Emperor Yongjia naturally didn't care about the fact that the key witness committed suicide in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.But he also understood that it would not help to pursue the fault of Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment now.It's better to suppress it for the time being, and after the matter is over, reward or punish according to merit and demerit.

"Chengyu, what do you say? I think you seem to have some ideas."

Emperor Yongjia already valued Lan Chengyu, but that kind of value was only for capable ministers. It wasn't until Lan Chengyu became his brother-in-law that he really became close and trusting to Lan Chengyu.

"Reporting to the emperor, I think that the case is about to make new progress, but the perpetrator is 'suicide in fear of crime' at this time, and the crime of Princess Rong and Princess Pingning has been confirmed."

After all, now, all the evidence points to these two people.

"You mean, I can deal with these two people directly?"

"This case is definitely inseparable from Princess Rong and Princess Ning, but the participants may not be only Prince Rong's residence and Princess Rong's natal family. To tell you the truth, after the incident happened, I immediately ordered someone to investigate. In this case, there seems to be a third-party handwriting. However, the other party was very vigilant and stopped very quickly. Wei Chen can only confirm that they have participated in this matter, but cannot be sure what they played in this matter. such a role."

Judging from the current situation, it is very likely that the other party took advantage of Princess Rong's mother and daughter, and pushed Princess Rong's mother and daughter as scapegoats after everything was over.Of course, Princess Rong's mother and daughter could not be called innocent.

However, compared with Princess Rong's mother and daughter, it was the person who had never shown up that made Lan Chengyu even more afraid.

Emperor Yongjia waved his hand and motioned for the eunuch standing beside him to grind ink for him: "I will pass on my will, Prince Rong allows his concubine and daughter to murder the eldest princess of the dynasty, fighting in the same room, which violates the legacy of the Tai-zu. His Prince and Jue were demoted to San Si Bo. The Honorable Princess Luo Shi and her daughter, Princess Ping Ning, took away their titles and demoted them to common people."

Just when everyone thought that the punishment was over, Emperor Yongjia said again: "Besides, Princess Pingning made trouble several times, and for the sake of the old Prince Rong, I have spared her. Now she doesn't want to repent, and she is getting worse. Give him death."

Everyone was stunned, no one thought that if Emperor Yongjia didn't make a move, he would kill Princess Pingning directly.

Emperor Yongjia turned his eyes slightly, and he took a panoramic view of everyone's expressions. He stroked the jade wrench finger in his hand: "Why, Pingning murdered the imperial sister several times, but the imperial sister escaped by chance, and I still have to spare her life." ? For the safety of the imperial sister, and also for the safety of me, I absolutely dare not stay in such a disaster."

"Your Majesty, if you really close the case with this result, I'm afraid it will disgrace the royal family." After a while, the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment said.

There is a saying that family ugliness should not be publicized, besides, the one who committed the crime was a family like Prince Rong's Mansion, which is very important in the clan.

"The assassination of Baoluo cannot be concealed. Do you think that under such circumstances, the so-called imperial family's face can be preserved? Unless I suppress the whole thing. But why? Why did you do it? It was the people from Prince Rong's Mansion who did the wrong thing, and as a victim, I have to cover up for them!" Emperor Yongjia sneered.

"Let's stop here on the surface of this case. In private, let me continue to investigate. Since the man behind the scenes can stretch out his hand once, he will stretch out his hand a second time and a third time. I want to see, he What exactly do you want to do. I don't believe it, I can't catch his little braid once!"

After the Secretary of the Ministry of Justice and the Minister of Dali Temple retired, Emperor Yongjia said to Lan Chengyu: "My sister is awake, but she is still very weak. The Queen Mother wants to keep her in the palace for a few days. You and I go to see my sister. Right. With you here, I think her spirit will be better."

The last sentence, Emperor Yongjia said a little sour.

In the past, when Baoluo was sick, he and Queen Mother Xu were the ones who took care of him, so what happened to Lan Chengyu?But this time, Baoluo didn't say anything, and sometimes when she fell asleep, she would say Lan Chengyu's name, obviously she was still worried about Lan Chengyu.

To be honest, although Lan Chengyu was injured, his body was as strong as a calf, and he recovered quickly, so there was nothing to worry about.On the other hand, Baoluo herself, after being frightened and drenched in the rain, had a persistent high fever and lingered on the bed.She's the one who really needs to be worried about.

When Emperor Yongjia and Lan Chengyu arrived, Baoluo was drinking medicine.

Bowl after bowl of bitter juice was poured into his stomach, making Baoluo frown.

Empress Dowager Xu looked at it quite distressed, but there was nothing she could do.After finally waiting for her daughter to drink the medicine, she ordered someone to bring candied fruit and fed it to Baoluo herself.

"Queen, I won't eat it." Right now, Baoluo's mouth is filled with the taste of bitter juice, and she doesn't want to eat anything else at all.

Hearing this, the Empress Dowager Xu ordered someone to bring water up and held it in front of Baoluo. There were a few rose petals in the water, which smelled a little fragrant: "Then you rinse your mouth to get rid of the smell in your mouth. , is also good."

Baoluo didn't want to make Empress Dowager Xu worry, so she took the water and rinsed her mouth, and sure enough, she felt that the disgusting smell of medicine in her mouth had faded a lot.

But at this moment, a deep and familiar male voice sounded from the side: "Baoluo, look, who did my brother bring you."

Baoluo raised her head suspiciously, her gaze passed over her elder brother, and stopped at the person who came in after her elder brother.For a moment, her eyes burst into a light that was hard to ignore: "You... why are you here? Are your injuries better?"

Lan Chengyu stepped forward with a smile, and while laying a pillow on Baoluo's back so that she could lean on, he patted her on the head affectionately: "What nonsense are you talking about? My wife is recuperating in the palace, and I'm the husband If I don’t come to care about it, who am I!”

He said again: "The injury on my body is already much better, you don't have to worry. The imperial doctor said that in a few days, the gauze can be removed."

"That's good." Hearing this, Baoluo kicked Lan Chengyu alive again, seeing nothing wrong, and finally heaved a sigh of relief: "Next time you encounter such a thing, don't rush at it foolishly." It was frightening to be in the front. Do you know that I almost fainted when I saw your carriage box deformed by the impact at the back?"

"If I hadn't stood in front of you, you would have been the one who got hit." Although he really wanted to agree to Baoluo's request, Lan Chengyu obviously couldn't say anything against his will: "If that carriage hit you, It came after me, and I have the confidence to retreat completely, but its target is you... Although your guards will definitely not ignore you, but I dare not gamble, nor do I want to gamble."

Baoluo was stunned for a moment, then bit her lower lip tightly, suppressing the sobs that were approaching her mouth: "You...why don't you listen to persuasion..."

She knew that Lan Chengyu valued her very much.Lan Chengyu really put her on the cusp of his heart, and in a critical juncture, even if he tried his best to keep her safe.But for some reason, she didn't feel much joy in her heart, instead she felt a little astringent.

Lan Chengyu lowered his head with a smile, and approached her with a magnified handsome face: "I said before, I am very stubborn when it comes to matters related to you. I can listen to you for everything else. In this aspect alone, I have to take care of you. You are worried about me and don't want me to put myself in danger, but you also have to think about me. In that case, can I do nothing and just watch Did that carriage hit you?"

Baoluo opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but when she raised her eyes, she looked into Lan Chengyu's eyes.Looking closely, Lan Chengyu's pupils are not pure black, but a little amber.Even though it wasn't the first time he was staring at her so intently, Baoluo's throat tightened for a while, and she couldn't say anything.

"Okay, let's not talk about this. I know that I may see you when I enter the palace today. Before I enter the palace, I ordered the cook in the house to prepare your favorite pastries and brought you two or three cakes. Since you drank the medicine and couldn’t eat anything else, seeing the better ones might give you some appetite.”

Baoluo bit her lower lip lightly, Lan Chengyu was so careful and thoughtful.

Just because of his heart, even if she doesn't want to eat, she will force herself to eat.

However, when Baoluo saw the pastries brought by Lan Chengyu, she realized that she was really thinking too much.

It has been a while since she took the medicine just now, and the nausea in her throat has dissipated a lot.These pastries are so exquisitely made that people will have an appetite just looking at them.What's more, when making these pastries, the chef also collected fresh flower petals as ingredients, so the pastries still smell fresh and natural.

Baoluo took Lan Chengyu's hand and ate a few pieces, but it was sweet but not greasy. This sweet taste penetrated all the way to the bottom of my heart.

It wasn't until a little crumbs of the pastry were on her lips that Baoluo realized that she had forgotten her mother and brother! ! !

Thinking of her and Lan Chengyu flirting with each other like this in front of Emperor Yongjia and Empress Dowager Xu, Baoluo immediately felt that she was in a bad mood, and she didn't even dare to raise her head to see the expressions on the faces of Empress Dowager Xu and Emperor Yongjia!

Lan Chengyu saw what Baoluo was thinking, and said amusedly: "Don't worry, the Queen Mother and Brother Huang have already left."

When he was in the court hall, Lan Chengyu called Emperor Yongjia "Your Majesty", and when he came down from the court, he changed into "Brother Huang" without hesitation.

Baoluo raised her head when she heard the words, and was slightly relieved when she saw that Queen Mother Xu and Emperor Yongjia were not there: "When did this happen?"

"When you told me not to stand in the way for you in the future."

Baoluo and Lan Chengyu didn't know, when Empress Dowager Xu and Emperor Yongjia saw Lan Chengyu coming, Baoluo's attention was all shifted to Lan Chengyu.

It's not so much that they want to leave space for the young couple, it's better to say that they don't want to stay and seek abuse for themselves.

When a daughter/sister marries out of the palace, she really becomes someone else's family.If this was in the past, who is Lan Chengyu?Whether you can see Baoluo's face depends on the expressions of Emperor Yongjia and Empress Dowager Xu!
