If you fall from such a high place, you will not die or be disabled.
There are dark guards beside the prince. Of course, it is impossible for the prince to be injured. The dark guards who were hiding nearby flew over with a swishing skill, caught the prince, and launched an instinctive attack on everyone who threatened the prince.
He slapped the concubine.
The prince suddenly changed color: "Stop!"
But it was too late, the palm wind had already been shot out, the wife was hit by the palm wind of the dark guard, first hit the stone table and then fell heavily to the ground, even a trace of blood spilled from the corner of her mouth.
"master!"
Not far away, there was an exclamation from the little palace maid.
But it turned out that it was the little palace maid who couldn't find the maid in the bedroom. She was worried that the maid would go around and cause trouble, so she hurried out to find it.
She also notified several eunuchs who were patrolling nearby, so a total of five people came over.
The five did not see how the prince fell, but saw that the former princess was slapped by the dark guard beside the prince and vomited blood.
Everyone was stunned, what is the prince doing? Why let the dark guard hurt the ex-wife? He also dismissed all the palace servants around him. Does this mean he wants to deal with the ex-wife in secret
If they hadn't found them, would the former princess have been brutally murdered by the prince
They thought of the incident where the princess was attacked in the imperial mausoleum, shouldn't they—
"You..." The prince looked at her coldly, "Shangguanyan, you are cruel!"
…
"That's the way it is." Gu Chengfeng said to Gu Jiao, "My wife has lost her memory, and she can't even remember her son's name. Zhang Qing and Li Qing will change her name if anyone asks her. How could I have provoked the prince, and let the prince attack her in the palace. No useful clues have been found about the attack on the prince. In other words, the prince's people have done too cleanly, and there is no clue. I didn't stay. But now that something like this happened, the prince's suspicion has suddenly increased!"
"Is the Crown Prince such a restless person?" The monarch was sitting in the palace. The Crown Prince really dared to come blatantly. What assassination was planned in the first place? Does the prince think that he is not exposed enough to see
Gu Jiao felt that something was wrong.
"Who!" Gu Jiao's eyes narrowed.
"it's me!"
Xu Fengxian's voice came.
"Come in." Gu Jiao retracted the Tanghua needle in her hand.
Xu Fengxian shyly pushed open the door and entered the house with a plate of fresh iced melons and fruits, and said with a smile, "Just cut it."
She put the fruit plate on the table, "If there's nothing else, I'll go first."
"Wait." Gu Jiao stopped her.
Xu Fengxian turned around and said with a flattering smile, "What's your order, little son?"
Gu Jiao asked, "What do you think about Fang Cai?"
Gu Chengfeng glanced at Gu Jiao in surprise.
Xu Fengxian hurriedly waved his hand: "I didn't hear a word of what happened just now!"
Gu Jiao took out the knife.
Xu Fengxian was so frightened that her legs softened, and she supported the table with her hands: "I said, I said, I said everything!"
Gu Jiao cut a piece of melon and fruit and looked at her strangely: "Huh?"
Xu Fengxian looked at her knife, and at the melons and fruits she cut into slices, she was instantly stunned.
You, do you just want to cut melons? The old lady thought you were going to cut the old lady!
Since it's all revealed, it's not good to hide it.
Xu Fengxian wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief, and said with a dry smile: "I didn't hear much, but I heard you talking about the princess and the prince. If you ask me what I think, I think it's the prince. moving hands."
"Is the prince so stupid?" Gu Jiao asked.
"Of course the prince is not so stupid, but didn't the palace staff see it? It was indeed the prince's guard who injured the princess." Although Xu Fengxian also felt that it was inconsistent with the prince's usual calm temperament, the facts speak louder than words, and what he saw with his own eyes And fake
Gu Chengfeng touched his chin, and thoughtfully said, "Could it be the concubine's bitter plan, for example, deliberately attacking the prince and inviting the prince's secret guard to defend her?"
I have read too much about the old sacrifice wine, and the thirty-six strategies are almost completely familiar.
Xu Fengxian shook his handkerchief: "You don't know anything about this. I would rather believe that the prince was unable to hold his breath, and I also don't believe that it was the wife who used bitter tactics. Because—"
Speaking of this, her expression suddenly became solemn, "That is the proudest woman in Quan Dayan."
She was the concubine who was executed in public without begging for mercy.
Countless whips fell on her, and she was beaten to pieces on the Golden Throne Hall, receiving the attention of civil and military officials and spiritual lingering. Under the double devastation of body and soul, she didn't shed a single tear, didn't say a single word of injustice, and didn't say a word of my grievance.
If she was willing to bend her arrogance and knelt down and begged the emperor to forgive her, how could she end up in such a miserable end
She can't be too much, at least be a princess, but she'd rather be deposed as a commoner and banned forever, and don't bow her head to show weakness.
This is the lady.
Xu Fengxian sighed: "How could such a concubine use bitter tricks? This is a method she doesn't even bother to use. It's more uncomfortable than killing her to let her break off her arrogance. Maybe you can't understand what I say, alas. , I'm at a loss for words. In short, if she really does, then she... must have something she really, really wants to protect, more important than her life and dignity."
…
The Royal Palace, the gazebo in the southwest corner.
Shangguan Yan didn't leave, she just sat on the stone bench, the little palace maid waited anxiously and persuaded: "Master, let's go back, you are injured, at least go back and lie down, there will be people coming later. Looking for you to investigate the situation."
Shangguan Yan did not speak.
The little palace maid was in a panic: "Well, then go back and eat dinner, okay?"
Shangguan Yan still did not speak.
The little palace maid scratched her ears and cheeks, not knowing what to do: "Okay, okay, I'll go get the food, the master will wait here for a while!"
The little palace maid went back to the dormitory to get the food.
Shangguan Yan sat quietly in the pavilion, looking in the direction of Fengqi Palace and Xuanyuan's house.
The night wind brought a hint of coolness to the ends of her hair.
Suddenly, a small figure carved in pink and jade climbed up the steps with hands and feet and came to the pavilion.
She stuck out a cute little head from behind the pillar: "Huh? Who are you?"
When Shangguan Yan heard the child's tender voice, her consciousness returned to the cage, and she turned her head to look at the other party.
Seeing that it was a ridiculously beautiful little girl in a palace dress, she smiled slightly: "I'm Shangguan Yan, who are you?"
"Oh." Children have an instinct to distinguish maliciousness. The little princess felt kindness from her, so she walked out from behind the pillar, "I'm Shangguan Xue, and they all call me the little princess."
"Little Princess." Shangguan Yan called out.
The little princess went to climb the stool.
But the stool was too high for her to climb on.
Shangguan Yan helped hold her up.
After she sat down, the little adult said with a serious look: "Thank you! By the way, your surname is Shangguan too. Are you a princess? Or are you a princess like me?"
If she was outside, she might not have asked this question, but the Shangguan women in the palace were generally of the royal family.
Shangguan Yan said, "None of them."
"Huh?" The little county master grabbed the corner of her clothes, obviously wondering how there could be a Shangguan woman in the White House who was neither a princess nor a county master.
But the logic of children is different from that of adults.
No it is not.
The little princess snorted and said, "My father is Lord Yan Shan, who is your father?"
Shangguan Yan looked at the little princess with an epiphany: "It turned out to be the daughter of Ninth Uncle."
The little princess is a smart child, she quickly reacted when she heard this sentence: "You call me father and ninth uncle, so I'm your little cousin! But why I haven't seen you, who are you? Uncle's child? Why don't you speak? Could it be—"
Several of her uncles have died because of their age.
The little princess frowned solemnly, climbed onto the stone table, stretched out her little hands, and patted Shangguan Yan on the shoulder soothingly: "Don't be sad."
"I'm not sad, I haven't seen him for more than ten years."
Even if he returned to the palace this time, he didn't summon her, and she didn't take the initiative to greet her. The two of them were so deadlocked.
The little princess understood in seconds, and no longer mentioned this sad topic.
"Little Princess!"
"Little Princess!"
"Where have you been, little princess!"
"Oh, they're here! I can't play with you today." The little princess slipped off the stool and waved at Shang Guanyan, "Cousin, goodbye!"
…
The small county lord was brought back to the king's bedroom by the palace staff.
Lord Yanshan was the posthumous son of the Queen Mother, who was more than 20 years younger than the monarch, and was raised by the monarch as a son.
The monarch has heir-like feelings for Jun Yanshan, but he does not have the expectation that his son will become a dragon. Without expectations, there will be no disappointment. In this way, Jun Yanshan has become a very favored younger brother by the monarch.
The small county master is also particularly favored.
The little princess went directly to the monarch's study.
Even the prince and princess were not allowed to come and go freely in the study area, but it was a small vegetable garden for the little princess.
She can come in as she wants.
The terrifying tyrant of Dayan was looking at the memorial in his hand with a cold expression. When he saw the little guy coming in, his expression was a little slow, but it was actually very scary.
It's just that the little princess can't feel this terrible.
"Where did you go to play today?" the king asked the little princess.
"Uncle Your Majesty." The little county lord first gave a dignified salute, then raised his head and said honestly, "I went to play in the pavilion. I saw a cousin today."
The king took a sip from the teacup.
The little princess sighed sadly: "She is called Shangguan Yan, she is so pitiful, her father has been dead for more than ten years!"
The monarch spit out a sip of tea—
The little county owner's warm reminder: the votes are cleared at the end of the month, ladies and gentlemen, if you have the votes, cast them quickly.
