Chapter 106: The 2nd Prince Compromises
Some things cannot be concealed forever, so I just said: "Fei'er had an argument with Princess Ningyang in the hunting ground and was injured by Princess Ningyang's horse. The situation is not optimistic, but at least her life was saved."
Upon hearing this, the couple's faces changed drastically; "What?"
Luo's eyes instantly turned red: "My Fei'er, why are you so miserable? Wuuwuwu..."
"Dad, Princess Ningyang is too bullying. I... you must not let her go..."
Lu Jin could only squeeze out these words: his daughter was bullied, but he was unable to seek justice for her.
The old Duke waved his hands helplessly, closed his eyes, and ordered: "General Manager Yu, take the Duke's token and go to the enclosure in person, bring more people with you, and say that the Duke's life is in danger and he is eager to see his two grandchildren. I hope Your Majesty will grant this!"
Manager Yu accepted the order and left in a hurry.
The old Duke looked at Lu Jin again and said, "You should stay here and fulfill your filial duties!"
"Father, where is my daughter-in-law..."
Mrs. Luo was at a loss, feeling heartbroken for her daughter and not knowing what to do.
"You! Go prepare some more life-saving herbs, they might be useful when the time comes."
The old Duke found her a job to do, also because he was afraid that she would have too many wild thoughts.
When Mrs. Luo heard this, she immediately asked her daughter-in-law to help her, hoping to find more medicine and perhaps cure her daughter.
Royal Enclosure
Emperor Qian received feedback from the young eunuch and learned that the old Duke was indeed furious and would not live long. He felt much better immediately.
It feels like the mountain that has been weighing on me for decades will soon be removed.
A lot of things happened during the hunting trip these two days, but fortunately there is good news.
I finally felt like planning a bonfire party.
The food at the banquet was the game that was hunted.
Men and women lit two towering bonfires in different places. Compared with the men's bonfire, the women's bonfire was much quieter.
There were only two concubines who accompanied him to the hunting ground this time, one was the fifth prince's mother, Concubine Rou, and the other was Concubine Yao.
None of the other high-ranking concubines came. The favored Concubine Ru was still recuperating from illness, and the Concubine Shu, who was demoted to the position of noble concubine, had temporarily lost favor and naturally could not come.
Concubine Rou sat together with several imperial edicts.
The maids put the roasted meat on plates and placed them in front of everyone's table for them to enjoy.
Some young ladies also gathered together to chat about what happened in the past two days.
Only Princess Yaoguang went to Miss Lu San's tent and did not join those people in the fun, but her maid brought the roasted meat to their tent.
Lu Zhanxing didn't go either. While everyone was eating meat around the campfire outside, she asked Bai Jing to guard the door and not let anyone in.
She entered the space, changed into night clothes, and moved forward based on the route she remembered from the Second Prince's tent. Occasionally, when she forgot, she would appear, take a look at the route, and then disappear immediately.
Fortunately, it was night time and everyone was at the bonfire party, so there were only some guards walking around. She flashed too quickly and was wearing a nightgown, so even if someone found it strange, they would have thought they were dazzled.
After some effort, they finally arrived at the Second Prince's tent. The Second Prince was still resting. Wei Feng was injured and was resting in the deputy tent. The Second Prince was served by a young eunuch, who felt a pain in his neck and fainted.
The cold knife was placed on the second prince's neck on the bed.
The second prince sensed danger and opened his eyes, only to see the man in black trying to kill him.
"You...what are you going to do?"
His eyes looked around and he wanted to scream.
Lu Zhanxing pushed his sword forward and said in a low voice, "If you want to die, just scream."
The second prince panicked: "If you have something to say, just talk it over. I won't call you."
"If you don't speak nicely, then wait for someone to collect your body!"
"Uh, don't be impulsive. Just say whatever you want to say."
This man was able to get past numerous guards and enter the tent safely, which showed that he was a man of great martial arts skills. His eyes couldn't help but darken.
“Stop talking nonsense. If you want to continue to receive support from the Anguo Mansion, go and clarify things with Master Lu immediately. Otherwise, no matter how many guards and secret guards you have outside, I can get through unimpeded.
Now, immediately, right away, I will go to the bonfire dinner in person to clear up the suspicion on Master Lu.
If you satisfy me, I can still lend you a helping hand if you fail to win the crown prince position someday. It all depends on your performance today."
After threatening the second prince, she suddenly disappeared.
The second prince looked around and rubbed his eyes. His complexion, which had improved a lot, became even paler. "What kind of weird body movement is this?"
However, this man is so capable, so what he said makes sense. If I have the help of such an expert, I will be more confident in competing for the throne.
The Anguo Mansion is indeed profound, and even has such a master.
His previous behavior of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge was indeed inappropriate, and Lu Zhanyan's subordinate A Li did not expose him, which means that they still want to continue cooperation.
Then I can just go there myself, which will help resolve the previous conflict.
"Somebody come!"
"What do you want, Second Prince?"
The guard at the door came in and asked.
"Help me to go see my father."
The expert wants to go and clarify things with Lu Zhanyan in person, so let’s go!
Emperor Qian was having a great time chatting with his ministers at the main seat of the bonfire dinner. There were fragrant wines, the sounds of stringed instruments, and charming dancers performing, making him feel very comfortable.
"Father!"
The second prince came over weakly, supported by two guards.
Emperor Qian was startled, "My son, what are you doing? If you have anything to say, just send someone to tell me. Why do you have to come here in person?"
As he said this, he asked someone to prepare a seat for him to sit down. The Fifth Prince and the ministers were all very curious.
The Fourth Prince frowned, feeling that it was not a good thing for his Second Brother to come.
really!
The second prince said weakly, "I have something to report. A guard beside me just told me that when Prince Lu was hunting yesterday, he shot two arrows at once, but when the guard went to get the prey, there was only one sharp arrow on it.
The guard did not think much about it, thinking that losing an arrow was not a big deal, but then word got out that Prince Lu was planning an assassination. The guard felt guilty and came to report to me, so I came to explain it to my father."
After saying that, he glared at one of the guards who followed him and said, "You bastard, why don't you quickly tell me what's going on?"
The guard knelt on the ground with a plop. "I saw it with my own eyes. I didn't pay much attention to it at the time. It wasn't until I learned that Prince Lu was assassinating me that I started to think more and more that something was wrong. That's when I took the initiative to explain it to His Royal Highness the Second Prince. I don't know the rest."
When the ministers around heard this, they knew that Prince Lu had been framed.
The fourth prince said angrily, "Second brother, what benefit did Lu Zhanyan give you to make you lie for him?"
The second prince looked over calmly and said, "Fourth brother, why are you in such a hurry? Someone who doesn't know would think you are the mastermind behind this."
"You're talking nonsense..." The Fourth Prince was shocked, with a trace of guilt in his eyes.
Emperor Qian still caught the slight change in his eyes. Is he really the Fourth Emperor?
"All right!"
Emperor Qian has already achieved what he wanted. He originally wanted to find an excuse to release Lu Zhanyan, but his official position had to be demoted.
"I will have someone investigate this matter. Go back and take good care of your injuries."
The Second Prince had achieved his goal, so he naturally did not stay any longer and let the guards help him back to the tent.
All the guards outside Lu Zhanxing's tent suddenly withdrew, and Lu Zhanxing knew that the second prince had compromised.
Very good. Tomorrow morning, she will bring her third sister and the others back home early.
