Ning Wang threw the spoon back into the bowl, and looked at her fixedly, his eyes were no longer as warm as before, his eyes were heavy and deep: "What do you want to do?"
Princess Ning raised her head and looked at him with a pair of almond eyes without blinking, with a three-point smile and three-point ridicule: "I didn't want to do anything, I just wanted to tell Your Highness that I can't control your Highness's affairs, but if anyone If you want to kill Princess Rui, kill me first."
King Ning's pupils shrank, as if he had experienced a huge shock. Rao was because he had already developed the temperament of Mount Tai collapsing on the top without changing his face, and at this moment he couldn't help but have a frost on his brows.
He clasped her wrist: "Those things about this king? You should make it clear to this king, what things about this king!"
"The medicine is cold." Concubine Ning smiled, and naturally broke away from King Ning's hand and took the medicine bowl from his hand. She had always been afraid of suffering and drank it all in one go, not even a drop left.
She handed the empty bowl to King Ning: "Please, Your Highness, help me put it away."
King Ning took a deep look at her, his eyes flashed cold, complicated, and angry... But in the end, they were all suppressed. He took the medicine bowl and put it on the table, calmed down his emotions, and said softly: "Hello, rest, I Let someone send the three younger siblings back."
Princess Ning said indifferently, "I heard that aconite is not as poisonous as arsenic, but I don't know, I haven't tried it."
King Ning had already got up and walked out. Hearing this, he turned around abruptly, looked at Princess Ning and said, "Enough, Chu Yue! This king will not touch her!"
Chu Yue, Princess Ning's name, Su Xin is her character.
After the wedding, he never called her by her first name.
Concubine Ning was stunned for a while, then she smiled: "Your Highness better remember your own words."
King Ning came out of Princess Ning's yard with an extremely cold expression.
The confidant dodged to keep up, and said to King Ning: "Master, do you really want to send Princess Rui back later? Do you want to—"
He said with a gesture of wiping his neck.
Ning Wang looked at him coldly: "Who gave you the guts to do this?"
The confidant was stunned for a moment: "It's not what His Highness said, Chen Guo's proton can't chew on it, otherwise..."
King Ning's eyes were cold and he said, "What is it? When will it be your turn to be the master of this king's affairs?"
The confidant bowed his hands and bowed: "My subordinates dare not!"
King Ning put his hands behind his back, looked at the autumn scenery in the garden, and said lightly: "Send Princess Rui back, don't hurt her."
The confidant opened his mouth: "But..."
King Ning held back his anger and said, "She's drinking poison to force this king, what do you want this king to do!"
The confidant's face changed, and he quickly responded: "Yes!"
"Wait." His confidant was about to send Princess Rui back to the mansion, but King Ning stopped him, "Who came to the mansion yesterday?"
"Yesterday?" The confidant thought for a while and replied, "Doctor Gu from Miaoshoutang came here, it seems to be a follow-up consultation for the princess."
"The re-examination is three days later." King Ning muttered, his eyes were deep, and he said, "When did Doctor Gu come here? Before the princess sent someone to pick up Princess Rui, or after?"
"Before," said the confidant.
Ning Wang narrowed his eyes.
Three days later, King Ning took someone to Prince Rui's mansion, and the prince appeared with him.
The prince was confused and said, "Brother, why did you ask me to go to Prince Rui's Mansion?"
King Ning said: "There are some things that I need to explain to the third brother and the third younger brother and sister in front of you."
Prince: "What's the matter?"
King Ning: "You'll know in a while."
Rui Wang and his wife were also surprised, why did the prince condescend to come to Rui Wang's mansion
Until King Ning asked his subordinates to bring a man tied up with five flowers into King Rui's yard, all of them opened their eyes wide.
"Wen Yang?" The prince recognized the other person first.
This young man named Wen Yang is none other than Wen Linlang's own brother. He is twenty-six years old this year, and he is an ignorant dude.
Seeing the prince, Wen Yang cried out, "Brother-in-law of the prince! Brother-in-law of the prince, please save me!"
The prince asked puzzled: "Brother, why did you arrest Wen Yang?"
To be honest, Wen Yang's reputation is not very good, and the crown princess does not allow the prince and her family to move around more on weekdays, so the prince can only turn a blind eye.
Rui Wang and his wife were also puzzled.
King Ning looked down at Wen Yang, his eyes were no longer the usual gentleness, but a bit of fairness and sternness: "Did you sneak into the palace two days before the Moon Night Festival?"
Wen Yang was knelt on the ground by King Ning's subordinates, but when he remembered it, he had no strength: "I... I didn't secretly... I was... I went to see my sister!"
King Ning said in a cold voice, "If you enter the palace without a summons, you will sneak in. It is useless to take the token of the East Palace!"
Wen Yang's neck shrank.
It is not the first time that Wen Yang entered the palace with the token of the East Palace. He was found twice and the token was taken back by the Crown Princess, but the Crown Princess' mother still had an emergency token from the East Palace. The prince thought, it is estimated that this unfilial son stole Mrs. Wen's token.
King Ning continued to interrogate Wen Yang: "Did you hurt Chunying that day? Threatened the Crown Princess?"
The prince was stunned.
On the contrary, Princess Rui suddenly changed her face: "What? Is it him?"
Prince: "What is he?"
King Ning nodded: "That's right, the man behind the rockery that day was him, and it was he who talked to the Crown Princess."
Princess Rui was dumbfounded: "Then Chen Guo..."
King Ning shook his head: "Chen Guoprion's side was just a misunderstanding. I have already checked. He was not in the palace at all on the day of the incident. Someone saw him going to the shop on East Street to buy dried fish."
The prince said suspiciously: "You... what are you talking about? I don't understand."
King Ning looked at him and said, "It's like this, the third younger siblings heard that the Crown Princess was threatened by someone in the palace that day, and the Crown Princess slapped the man. Unfortunately, there was a slap mark on Chen Guozhi's face..."
King Ning stops when he clicks.
The prince understood, and his face turned cold: "Are you misunderstanding Linlang?"
Princess Rui's eyes flashed.
Ning Wang hurriedly made a round of contention: "How could we misunderstand the third siblings? Did the second brother forget about the assassination of the father and emperor by Chen Guo
"Ah... That's right, that's it!" King Rui hurried to help, but they couldn't really say that they suspected that the Crown Princess had found a concubine outside, and from the current evidence, it seemed that the Crown Princess had been wronged.
The prince's face turned a little better.
King Ning continued to interrogate Wen Yang: "What did you threaten the Crown Princess that day, you'd better explain it honestly, otherwise, even if you are the Crown Princess's own brother, this King still won't spare you!"
Although Wen Yang is the prince's brother-in-law, Wen Linlang is the most important thing in the prince's heart. Whoever hurts her will have a hard time with him.
The prince looked at Wen Yang coldly: "What did you say to Linlang? Why did you threaten her!"
Wen Yang lowered his head and said in a trembling voice, "I... I... I just... I'm just a little tight on money. I asked her to ask for money. She wouldn't give it to me. I know that she is mean to her own brother, that she is unfaithful and unfilial, and that she is ruthless!"
Ning Wang frowned and said, "That's it? Then why did she hit you?"
Wen Yang muttered, "I just said one thing to her."
The prince's face was ashen: "What did you say about Linlang!"
Wen Yang cleared his throat and said with a tough face: "I... I just said she was so cruel, she deserved not to have children... "
This is really heartbreaking!
Not to mention that Wen Linlang would slap him in the face, even the crown prince can't wait to give him a few big mouths!
Seeing the prince's face gradually turning cold and severe, Wen Yang's body shuddered, and suddenly he did not know where the strength came from, he broke free from the restraints of King Ning's men, rushed over and hugged the prince's leg: "I, me, my day. I was blinded by lard, and I drank a little wine... My mouth is open, brother-in-law of the prince, please forgive me this time, I will never dare! I am Linlang's brother! Forgive me! You give it to me A chance to make a change!"
Princess Rui suddenly said, "Then why did you stun Chunying?"
A woman's intuition is always more accurate. The only flaw in the whole thing is to stun Chunying. Chunying is a servant brought over by the Wen family, and she will not do anything to Wen Yang. It is necessary for Wen Yang to stun her. Talk to the princess again
Wen Yang's expression was startled.
King Ning rubbed the jade wrench on his thumb.
Wen Yang let go of the Crown Prince's legs, and said with shame, "I, I drank a little too much, and I was a little rude to Chunying... That girl didn't follow me... I just hit her... She fainted when I thought about it. now…”
The prince was furious: "Even the female officials of the East Palace dare to interfere, I think you are going to die!"
Wen Yang knelt on the ground and slapped himself fiercely: "I'm confused! Damn it! Brother-in-law, please scold me! Or you can beat me up! I'll never dare!"
Everyone is not unfamiliar with Wen Yang's virtue. They thought that the Wen family would be able to restrain themselves after the collapse of the cable bridge, but it seems that they thought too much.
"It's boring." Princess Rui curled her lips, thinking that she had caught Wen Linlang's adultery, how could she expect that it was just a quarrel between siblings.
To say that it had an impact on Wen Linlang, it was true, but it was pitifully small. After all, the whole capital knew that her family was unreliable.
King Ning had a panoramic view of Princess Rui's expression, picked up the teacup on the table, and took a light sip.
After all, it was a major event to alarm King Ning and King Rui. In order to ensure that Wen Yang's words were not one-sided, the prince sent someone to the East Palace to call Chunying over.
Chunying's confession was consistent with Wenyang's.
In fact, Wen Yang's confession was enough to win people's trust. After all, King Ning and Donggong were in opposing camps, and King Ning could not buy Wen Yang, but Chunying's confession was to fully confirm Wen Yang's crime.
King Ning couldn't buy Wen Yang, let alone Chunying, at least the prince and King Rui thought so.
However, after the prince returned to the East Palace, he still asked the princess to talk about Wen Yang: "He came to you, why didn't you tell Gu?"
The Crown Princess was still recovering from her injuries on the bed. She heard the words and lowered her eyes, her jet-black hair fell down her shoulders, which made her face white and weak.
"His Royal Highness." The Crown Princess whispered, "How do you ask the concubine to speak about this kind of thing? The concubine's face is already dull with such a big brother, and then go out to embarrass the Highness?"
The prince scolded: "Gu... loneliness doesn't mean that..."
In a restaurant in Beijing.
Wen Yang poured a glass of wine for King Ning, and said with a smile, "Your Highness, I did a good job today, right?"
Behind King Ning stood two of his confidants, and beside the guards was Chunying with a tense expression.
Ning Wang glanced at Wen Yang with a smile, and hooked his fingers at the two guards. The two brought a small box from another room and placed it on the table. After opening it, it was full of gold.
Wen Yang's eyes straightened: "This, this, this is really for me?"
King Ning smiled: "Isn't Young Master Wen a little tight? These are the king's thanks to you."
"No, don't be so polite..." Wen Yang smiled and took the box into his arms. He picked up a gold bar and bit it.
real!
Real gold!
Wen Yang smiled even brighter: "Your Highness, you are so nice! Much better than my stingy prince's brother-in-law! If my sister married you back then..."
Halfway through the conversation, he remembered that Wen Linlang couldn't get married back then. His younger sister had a marriage contract with the little Marquis since he was a child. Before the little Marquis died, Ning Wang had already married the daughter of the Chu family.
With such a face as his sister, it is absolutely impossible to be a concubine.
Besides, the princess is also good.
Wen Yang said: "When my sister becomes the queen in the future, I will be the uncle of the country, and I will definitely repay His Highness!"
King Ning looked at him with a half-smiling smile: "Don't ask, why did I ask you to play this scene?"
Wen Yang didn't care very much and said, "Didn't you say that you will save my sister?"
King Ning nodded with a smile: "Yes, it's to relieve Linlang."
Wen Yang didn't ask what to do, he didn't care and didn't care, Wen Yang waved his hand, and the next second, he sat upright and looked at King Ning suddenly.
He stammered: "Lin, Linlang?"
King Ning smiled: "Yes, Linlang."
Wen Yang's smile gradually solidified: "Your Highness, to my sister..."
King Ning looked at the box in his arms and smiled warmly: "Is there enough gold? Not enough for this king."
Wen Yang shut up.
…
After coming out of the restaurant, Wen Yang drunkenly patted King Ning on the shoulder: "Great... Your Highness... Don't worry... I... will never say it... I am... the most loyal... From today... you are my friend! "
King Ning smiled warmly and said: "Okay."
Wen Yang stumbled toward the alley, where his carriage was parked.
Chunying looked at her son's drunken appearance and was worried.
Ning Wang took out the handkerchief and wiped his hands, then smiled and said, "Be clean."
The confidant responded: "Yes!"
Chunying's face turned pale...
…
The next day, a big event happened in the capital—Wen Yang died.
On the way home, the carriage broke down and fell into a small pond. When Wen Yang was fished up, Wen Yang had already drowned.
Jingzhao House launched an investigation into the matter, and the result of the investigation was an accident. It was Wenyang's driver who didn't see the stones on the road clearly and crashed the wheel of the car. He and Wenyang both fell into the water.
The coachman swam up with all his might, but Wen Yang was not so lucky because he was drunk.
But there are also doubts that it was not an accident.
In the teahouse, many people were discussing this matter.
"It is said that the prince killed it," said a young man.
