Shi Mei was shocked: "Why did the King of Yizhong attack Yan Hou?"

Yan Hou's identity is somewhat difficult to describe.

However, his serious identity is only clan.

Even if the emperor's son died, it would not be his turn to ascend the throne.

Why did King Yizhong attack him?

Jia Zheng shook his head: "I don't know the details about my son, but my eldest brother just said briefly that they just entered the paddock and are discussing how to allocate manpower and prey.

Unexpectedly, the Yizhong County King made a sudden move and whipped Yan Hou's mount with a steel whip.

Yan Hou's mount was frightened and ran into the woods.

In order to rescue Yan Hou, the elder brothers also chased into the forest.

The elder brother chased desperately, trying to subdue Yanhou's mount, but the mount lost its horseshoe.

Thanks to my brother's cleverness, he grabbed the branch above his head and avoided falling.

Unexpectedly, the branch I grasped was too thin to bear the weight, so it broke.

The elder brother had nowhere to rely and hurt his foot.

Now waiting for the Ministry of Criminal Justice to question, I'm afraid I won't be able to go home for a while. "

Shi Mei was stunned: "Did the horse's shoe drop?

how can that be possible?

Your brother's horses are newly shoed by Jin Shan himself.

Jin Shan followed your father to the battlefield, and your father with a strong horseshoe can run thousands of miles in a row.

How many miles did he run, and he lost his horseshoe? "

Jia Zheng shook his head: "I don't know, it's not just my elder brother's horse that lost its horseshoe, but the horses of several companions also lost their horseshoes."

At such a time, when they heard of Jia Zheng's return, several nearby eunuchs came to inquire about the news.

Jia Zheng told the news he knew: "Niu Jizong, Chen Ruiwen, Chen Ruiwu, Liu Zifang, Ma Shang, Hou Xiaokang, Hou Xiaolian, Shi Guangzhu, all their horses lost their front hooves because of missing their shoes.

However, because the horses were not running fast in the woods, even though they were injured, there was no danger of their lives. "

Several Mrs. Hou patted their chests and only called Amitabha.

Shi Mei asked again: "Where is Marquis Yan?"

Jia Zheng said: "Yan Hou is worse than them, although he didn't hurt his muscles and bones. But because the horse was frightened and ran wildly, Yan Hou's face was scratched by a branch, probably leaving a scar..."

At this time, Shi Mei said to the Madam Hou, "Did you hear that, all the horses of the Eighth Prince's family were disturbed, if it wasn't for Yan Hou's horses being frightened, they would have burrowed into the flat forest ahead of time.

Once we go deep into the hunting area, even if our children don't fall and break their necks, they will be killed by wild boars and leopards that have not been cleaned up in the forest. "

Jia Zheng said again: "Brother said, if they were to go to the cliff valley in the west, and the prey would go to the edge of the west mountain, they would jump off the cliff and die if they were not shot.

They can get cheap.

They hunt like this every year, but luckily they didn’t go this year..."

Otherwise, it's not the prey that falls to death, but Jia She and the others.

Mrs. Qi Guohou's eldest and youngest sons all participated in the hunt, and immediately scolded angrily: "You crazy thing, this is going to exterminate my Eight Houses..."

If this happened at home, she must suspect that some aunts did it for the sake of the bastard.

Now that we have come to this royal hunting ground, who do you think did it?

A group of Madam Hou are extremely afraid at such a time.

No matter who did this, it is within His Majesty's jurisdiction: "This is not going to happen, I must seek justice with Your Majesty, this is to wipe out all the children of my Eighth Duke's Mansion..."

At this moment, Shi Mei bowed her hands to a group of wives: "Our family's pillars have collapsed now,

No one can enter the Golden Temple.

Please, ladies, please intercede with the lords, and sue for grievances, and let us take our Rongfu along with us. "

All six ladies agreed generously.

When setting off, Jia Zheng drank hot soup and was comforted by his mother, who suppressed his nausea.

Only then did Shi Mei quietly ask Jia Zheng, "Have you seen Jinshan?"

It is not bad for horses to be under the jurisdiction of the eunuchs and servants of the horse supervisor when they enter the hunting ground.

However, even though his own servants couldn't handle them, they were able to guard the perimeter.

Couldn't Jinshan have imagined that someone would tamper with the mount?

These are the skills of scouts to guard the house, if they are neglected, then they are not worthy of this bowl of rice.

Jia Zheng said: "I see, I will serve my brother."

Shi Mei couldn't figure it out either.

She didn't know how Jinshan and his son would arrange it.If all the people were sent to the cliff valley to the west for defense, the Yumajian might be missed.

The more Shi Mei thought about it, the more confused she became, and she could only understand it when Jia She's master and servant returned home.

Then, before Shi Mei came home, news from Wang Ziteng and Beijing Palace arrived.

Today, the clan's children seem to have offended the gods.

One died, two were disabled, and five were injured, all of whom were seriously injured with broken arms and legs, and more than a dozen minor injuries.

In addition, more than a dozen people including Jia Amnesty were slightly injured.

The number of disabled people this year is the worst ever.

Your Majesty's hunting is just an act of occasion.The rest of the hunting grounds are some docile animals, such as elk, badger, muntjac and roe deer.

Therefore, the most serious wounding incident during hunting was that a few soldiers who were responsible for lightly tapping their prey were bitten off by wild boars that slipped through the net.

The descendants of the honorable royal family are rarely injured.

This time it was really wrong.

Wang Ziteng said that His Majesty was furious and ordered to investigate to the end.

King Jing's news was more accurate. Many horses had their hands and feet tampered with, and the nails were loosened by someone.

The eldest grandson of Zong Ling's family fell off his horse while hunting.

At the same time, Princess Ronghui's only son also fell off the horse. He injured his lumbar spine and was estimated to be paralyzed.

The eldest grandson of Fuguo Duke's Mansion hurt his eyes, which is considered disfigured, and he can no longer be a prince.

Mrs. Zong Ling collapsed and fainted several times.

The howls that Shi Mei heard came from Madam Zongling and Princess Ronghui respectively.

The reason why everyone misunderstood them as one person was because both of them fell into a faint after howling.

Two servants of Yumajian died of poison.

That is to say, the servant who killed Jia She and his horses died.

On the way back, because it was dark and the road was slippery, they walked very slowly, so the adjourned official family carriage had to stop for a rest, so as not to cause another accident.

This time, Shi Mei used the excuse that Jia Zheng was a burden and was frightened. She was afraid that he would have an accident while riding a horse and would need a car, so she led her daughter and daughter-in-law to the car of Princess Beijing.

Princess Bei Jing revealed a shocking news to Shi Mei: "Jun Wang Yizhong told His Majesty that the reason why he wounded Hou Yan's mount was to save Hou Yan's life.

The horseshoes of Yan Hou's mount were also tampered with. If he participated in hunting, even if he did not die, his arms and legs would be broken. "

Shi Mei was very surprised: "Wangfei means, could it be that someone is targeting Duke Yizhong?"

Princess Bei Jing said: "Now that the investigation results haven't come out, it's still hard to say.

Perhaps some people are afraid that the king of Yizhong County will become a big one.

After all, it has only been three years since the crown prince was deposed, and His Majesty has not completely wiped out the influence of the crown prince's mansion.

And His Majesty seems to be very concerned about this grandson, except that he does not have the title of prince, all the assets that belonged to the prince before have been returned to King Yizhong.

Even Princess Rongchang only changed her title, and the rest of the treatment remained unchanged, and she was assigned to be married to the favored and generous Duke of Shanguo.

With such an arrangement, how many people can't sleep at night.

How can those who stepped on the deposed prince and exposed the deposed prince make him come back? "

Although Shi Mei doesn't understand politics, she understands what she said: "It means that someone pretended to be the king of Yizhong County and murdered the noble children of the Bagong Mansion, but was discovered by the king of Yizhong County. That's why you came to the rescue?"

Princess Bei nodded: "That's the news in front of me."

Shi Mei was stunned: "Why didn't he inform His Majesty in advance? Doesn't Zong Ling want to hate him to death?"

Princess Bei smiled wryly: "He said that when he learned that someone had tampered with Yan Hou's mount, the opening gongs and drums had already sounded, and the hunting troops had already set out.

He also said that he didn't know the authenticity of the news, and the only way was to prevent Yan Hou from going deep into the hunting ground.

I never thought that the black hands behind the scenes would be so insane and hit such a wide area. "

Shi Mei was a little confused.

She has two doubts about Yizhong County King.

One is the time to get the news.

The second is that they only know that someone is targeting Yan Hou, but they don't know all the plots behind the scenes.

After all, the abandoned prince is the prince when he lands, and the queen has controlled the harem for many years.

It's just a decoration, there are always a few confidantes.

Before the abolished prince had no rebellion, he was also a virtuous prince praised by everyone.

There are three close friends who are beggars.

Can a dignified prince be without a loyal person?

He chose to help Yan Hou, firstly because Yan Hou is the illegitimate son of His Majesty, and His Majesty loves him very much because he cannot be given a title.

He wants to give His Majesty a favor.

Secondly, he saved the prince's old department.

Is this trying to reorganize the old mountains and rivers?

After all, the four kings and eight princes were once loyal to the prince, and if others ascended the throne, the four kings and eight princes would definitely be marginalized.

These are Shi Mei's guesses based on normal people's thinking.

He could obviously pretend to be confused after saving Yan Hou, and only said that he was jealous of Yan Hou being favored, so he bullied others and wanted to make him look ugly.

In other words, if you don't want Hou Yan to show off, you can remove your suspicion.

After all, the king of Yizhong County admitted that he knew the news that someone had framed Yanhou, which proved that the deposed prince still had an old department in the palace.

It does him no good.

However, he did the opposite.

However, King Yizhong chose to confess.

Is it to gain His Majesty's trust?

His Majesty has been on the throne for decades, and the emperor's mind is so smooth.

Can such a person be deceived?

Shi Mei lived for 39 years.

Ask yourself if you can't keep up with the strategic brain of King Yizhong.

However, Shi Mei realized clearly that this person is as cunning as a fox, so he cannot get close to him!

Shi Mei was afraid that Jia She would be stupid, so she boarded the warship of King Yizhong again.

When Shi Mei returned to Rongfu, it was Haishi.

But Jia Amnesty was nowhere to be seen.

Even Jinshan father and son disappeared.

When Shi Mei learned that Jin Shan and his son were missing, her heart was wrenched.

At the moment of Haishi, Jia Jing returned to the mansion, and then arrived at the Rong mansion.Bring back news of Jia Amnesty to Shi Mei.

But Jia Amnesty and all the sons of noble families and royal families who participated in the hunting were kept in the palace and were interrogated by the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple respectively.

However, Jia Jing said: "My nephew didn't see Brother She, but I inquired about the news. King Bei said that he would arrange to interrogate the injured first, and after confirming that they were not suspected, he would send someone to escort them home."

Shi Mei asked, "Have you ever met Jin Shan and his son?"

Jia Jingyan said: "This nephew didn't inquire, if Brother She's bodyguards, as long as Brother Jia She and Brother return home, they should be able to return home together."

Shimei, Jiazheng, Jiamin and Zhang all gathered in Rongqing hall to wait for the news.

Nanny Lai prepared meals.

Shi Mei added half a bowl of rice for herself and soaked it in chicken broth.

Zhang's Jia Min and Jia Zheng couldn't eat, indicating that they were not hungry.

"shit!"

Shi Mei was immediately annoyed: "Lunch is only a bowl of wontons, this day is frightening, frightening and tired, and it's midnight, how can you not be hungry?

Eat, eat, have energy.

If your elder brother is detained tonight, you all will go to the palace with me tomorrow to file a complaint and get Xie'er out.

How can you have strength if you don’t eat?

Could it be that you are so young and expect me to go to the palace alone tomorrow to break up with His Majesty? "

Hearing this, Jia Zheng hurriedly stood up and bowed: "What the mother said is that the son is the only male in the family, but he is not as brave as the mother. The son is ashamed."

Shi Mei said: "Knowing that I am ashamed, I eat and gather my energy to do something tomorrow."

Zhang's Jia Min also added a full bowl of rice, and ate it in big mouthfuls.

Shi Mei nodded: "That's right, what's the use of worrying about something, the more you don't fall down at this time, the more you have to cheer up and straighten your back. Who dares to bully us for no reason, We will call him back until he admits defeat and corrects his mistake."

With the encouragement of Shi Mei, the four adults in Rongfu are ready to fight against the sky.

In the end, Jia Amnesty was sent home by Wang Ziteng himself at midnight.

However, there was a troublesome thing. Of the twelve scouts under Jin Da, only his son Jin Shan came back.

Shi Mei's heart that had just rested was suspended in the air again.

Shi Mei recruited Jin Shan to ask, "How did your father explain it to you?"

Jin Shan said: "Originally, if nothing happened, my father would leave the mountain after His Majesty returned to Beijing, rest outside the city for one night, and then go home tomorrow. But this time His Majesty left 1000 people to stay in the hunting ground because of an accident in the paddock. I'm afraid it's for follow-up investigation and evidence collection.

This trapped my father in the mountains.I'm afraid they won't be able to come out until the remaining team has withdrawn.

My father has no problem surviving in the wild, but he is afraid that it will be troublesome if someone finds out. "

If someone finds out, you can't tell, or you will be used as a scapegoat.

Shi Mei said: "Your father followed the father-in-law to hunt countless times in winter and autumn, is it possible to know the path out of the mountain?"

Jin Shan said: "Even if there is a small road, the mountain is blocked by heavy snow, so we can't walk."

Shi Mei said: "Do you know whose army blocked the forest?"

Jia She said: "It's Wang Ziteng and King Zhongjing's troops who are in charge together."

If it was Wang Ziteng, he could only bow his head and exchange Wang's family for Jin Da.

It is really impossible to get involved with King Zhongjing.

Now that things have happened, I can only pray that Jin Da can find a secret hiding place until the troops are withdrawn.

Shi Mei knew not to panic at this time, so she asked Jia Jing to discuss it.

Jia Jing said: "Wang Ziteng has a subordinate, and his uncle has been kind to him. It is his uncle's kindness that he entered the patrol camp. Now he is ordered to guard the hunting ground, maybe he can help."

Shi Mei hurriedly asked: "Who is it?"

But Jia She said: "Brother is talking about Feng Tang, the son of General Feng?"
