My Princess Has Been Reborn

The people who went down the slope quickly responded, and they found King Wei on the slope.It's just that the king of Wei seemed to have fallen hard. He didn't know about the personnel affairs at the moment, and the injuries all over his body made it easy for people not to move around.

Qi Yang heaved a sigh of relief when he got the news, while sending his attendants back to report the news, he wanted to go down to see the situation himself.

Lu Qipei stopped her, and in the end, neither of them put themselves in danger—the steep slope was almost straight up and down, and it was obviously dangerous to go down in the dark. They didn't have much friendship with King Wei before, but now they just need to ensure his safety.

Fortunately, after only waiting for a quarter of an hour or two, the attendants who had gone to look for someone before came back with a team of Habayashi.Everyone cut down the bushes and went down to the slope. Seeing that King Wei had fallen miserably, they didn't dare to act rashly.Still later came a military general who knew some medical skills and healed injuries. After checking and confirming that King Wei could move, the crowd lifted him up from the bottom of the steep slope.

In this way, King Wei was sent back to the camp, and the noisy hunting ground all day finally returned to calm.

When the group returned to the camp, it was already late at night.Although the entire camp was noisy for a while because of King Wei's rescue, everyone who came back from the hunting ground felt tired and chose to go back to the camp to rest.

Of course Lu Qipei and Qi Yang were no exception, they returned to their tents after dismissing their attendants.

After sending all the outsiders away, Qi Yang asked, "What happened tonight? How did you find King Wei, and what happened to the dead horse?" They took King Wei with him. returned, but the dead horse has not yet been disposed of.

Naturally, Lu Qipei didn't hide it from her, he pulled her to sit aside, and took out a handkerchief from his pocket.In the handkerchief was a small handful of soil she secretly packed, she put the soil in front of Qi Yang, and said to her: "Your Highness, smell it, what might you smell?"

Qi Yang had personally witnessed her searching process before, so of course he knew that there might be some problems in the land along the way.It's just that there are many attendants following the action, but no one can smell the difference.She was also curious, so she had no objection at this time, and moved closer to smell the handful of soil in Lu Qipei's handkerchief.After a while, she said: "There is no strange smell, I just smell the plum blossoms on your body."

Lu Qipei was startled when he heard such an answer, looked at the handkerchief and couldn't help laughing: "There is a fragrance, but it's not the fragrance of plum blossoms on my body. The fragrance hidden in the soil and rotten leaves, ordinary people can't smell it, it's just me I like Hexiang to be more sensitive."

The answer was not unexpected, Qi Yang nodded and asked again: "What kind of incense is that?"

Lu Qipei closed the handkerchief, and threw the handful of soil aside indifferently: "It's a kind of incense that doesn't exist in the Central Plains." She said, her face became serious: "The grassland species has its own magic, and no one can say it. I don’t know where they come from. But I read a miscellaneous book, which said that this kind of horse eats a kind of vanilla, which grows on the edge of the salt lake in the deep grassland, and there is no place nearby.”

Qi Yang understood, and glanced at the soil thrown beside him: "You mean the scent in the soil is that kind of vanilla?"

Lu Qipei nodded and shook his head again: "I have never been to the grassland, so I don't know. But I learned Hexiang before, and I have seen all the spices that can be found in Daliang, and none of them are similar. This fragrance is very special. It is also very similar to the description in the book."

Qi Yang naturally believed in her judgment, and didn't think it was any surprise that Lu Qipei knew about it.After all, they still have two prairie horses in their house. Without knowing the purpose of Rongguo, of course they need to learn more.Then she connected the events before and after, and it was not difficult to guess the whole story and the purpose of the other party.

After a while, Qi Yang took a deep breath and said: "Now it seems that everything is a coincidence. It is a great luck that King Wei was injured and survived. But if someone finds the dead horse tomorrow, he knows that King Wei's mount was poisoned to death." , I'm afraid things will fall into a conspiracy."

Although this matter was originally a conspiracy, but if it is exposed in this way, the prince will undoubtedly become the target of public criticism again.

Qi Yang couldn't be more upset, she grabbed the bag of soil, got up and said: "I have to go to Brother Huang, tell him all these things first, and let him make some preparations earlier."

After she finished speaking, she wanted to leave, but was stopped by Lu Qipei: "Your Highness, wait, you can't go to the prince."

Qi Yang stopped when he heard the words, and looked back at her: "Why?"

Lu Qipei didn't speak, and stared at her silently, Qi Yang understood for a moment - the prince now is different from before, he was wary of Lu Qipei, if he knew that Lu Qipei found out about this, I don't know how much he would believe it .

Being able to discover things in advance is their first opportunity, and it makes no sense to let suspicion ruin this advantage.What's more, they were already close to Donggong, and they went to look for the prince again in the middle of the night. After the news got out, they didn't know what would happen.Maybe even the fact that King Wei was found by them has to be covered with a veil of conspiracy.

Qi Yang lowered his eyes and tightened his lips, raised his eyes after a while and asked Lu Qipei, "Then what do you mean, Ah Pei?"

Lu Qipei's expression was calm, but his answer was firm: "Go and find Your Majesty!"

Although the emperor was very worried about King Wei, he was getting old after all, so he went to bed when he was about to die.However, King Wei was found and sent back in the middle of the night, which disturbed the entire camp and woke the emperor from his sleep.

Hearing that the king of Wei had fallen off his horse and was seriously injured, the emperor was startled enough to get up.Therefore, when Lu Qipei and Qi Yang came, the imperial tent was still brightly lit, and after the announcement, the emperor summoned them without keeping them waiting.

When the emperor saw Qi Yang, he first reprimanded her for not knowing the seriousness: "I told you earlier that there are many people in the hunting ground looking for your brother Wang, what are you going to do? How dare you wait until after dark to bring so few people there , how dangerous the hunting ground is at night, don't you know?"

Qi Yang bowed his head to listen to the training, and didn't dare to refute anything at this moment.

The emperor had trained his daughter and scolded the son-in-law: "And you, as Qi Yang's son-in-law, can't you stop her because she is capricious? The princess wants to risk herself, so you dare to accompany her. If you really want to do something good or bad what to do?!"

After hearing this, Lu Qipei lowered his eyebrows with guilt, and dared not tell the emperor that Her Highness the Princess was abducted into the hunting ground by her.Otherwise, if the old man knew, it would be as simple as scolding him.

Qi Yang didn't want Lu Qipei to be scolded, even though she was the one who started the incident, there is no reason to protect his shortcomings.So Qi Yang raised his head, and whispered back to the emperor's previous questioning: "But father, this time it was the ministers and son-in-law who found brother Wei Wang!"

In fact, King Wei really fell badly, and now it is safe to carry him back, but God knows if he is allowed to lie at the bottom of the slope overnight, even in such a dangerous place as the hunting ground, will he still be alive tomorrow?

Of course the emperor knew it too, so he lost his temper when he was blocked by his daughter's words, so he glanced at her and said nothing.

Simply Qi Yang didn't come here to ask for a reward, so he accepted it as soon as he saw it.Thinking about what to say later, I first asked casually: "Brother Wei Wang fell off the horse, it seems that the fall was not easy, what's the matter now?"

The emperor knew that Qi Yang had a normal relationship with the king of Wei, and most of what he did was for the sake of the prince, so he replied to her at this moment: "Not bad, not bad. The imperial doctor said that he broke two ribs and the back of his head was also smashed, but fortunately, there is nothing wrong with him." The fear of life."

Qi Yang nodded after hearing this, and said carefully, "Father, I feel that the injury of Brother Wei Wang is probably unusual."

I'm afraid Qi Yang is not the only one who wants to say this, and everyone in the camp probably thinks so.They had already set their eyes on the prince with suspicion, and the prince was indeed suspicious.Only because of the emperor's firm attitude, no one dared to mention it.

The emperor didn't expect that Qi Yang would be the first to say this, he was slightly surprised, and then calmed down: "What does the emperor want to say?"

Qi Yang didn't hide it either, and first told what he saw and heard at the hunting ground tonight, including the poisoned horse that hadn't been discovered by others.Finally, he talked about Lu Qipei's discovery, and presented the bag of soil.

It's a pity that the smell of vanilla in the soil is not obvious at all, and it is contaminated by the incense on Lu Qipei's body. The emperor can't smell anything except the fragrance of plum blossoms.Turning his head to let Zhang Jian smell it, the result was the same.

Lu Qipei then explained: "The smell is so light that ordinary people may not be able to smell it. It's best to ask a perfumer to smell it. It's just that the smell of the forest clearing dissipates quickly, and I'm afraid it will be gone in a day or two." Well, we need to send someone to get some soil and seal it up first.”

The emperor had a serious face, turned around and ordered Zhang Jian to arrange for someone to go down to fetch soil in private.After thinking about it, he gave another order: "Bring me back that dead horse, and give it to Dali Temple Secretary to investigate, and don't let others know."

Zhang Jian is the emperor's confidant, and he has heard many secrets for decades, so he proceeded to make arrangements calmly.

After Zhang Jian left, the emperor looked at the handful of soil and murmured, "Since it is a vanilla on the grassland, but I never had it in Daliang, is this matter led by Rong Guo?"

This is the simplest and most straightforward suspicion, but after thinking about it, it makes sense.From the time when the prince's health was broken in the battle of Liang Rong, to this year when several of his princes had accidents one after another, it was clear that Rong Guo was targeting the next generation of Liang Guo.If the prince Xian is weak and short-lived, and the death of the kings implicates the prince, and even the older grandson is killed, then the inheritance of the Liang Kingdom will definitely be a problem.

It's not just disrupting the court, it's a plan to exterminate the heir, and it's very vicious!

When the emperor thought of this, a sharp and cold light flashed in his eyes, Qi Yang had never seen such a cold look.

Both Qi Yang and Lu Qipei noticed the change in the emperor's expression, and they looked at each other calmly, not daring to say anything.

After waiting for a long time, the emperor suddenly asked the two of them: "Do you think that this matter will be envoyed by Rong Guo? If so, who is planning all this behind the scenes?"

They shouldn't have asked them this question, but since the emperor asked, how could Qi Yang and Lu Qipei not answer?Just as Qi Yang was about to speak, he caught sight of Lu Qipei gesturing to her out of the corner of his eye, so he restrained his words a little: "I don't know about this matter, and I came here to report it in the hope that my father will be aware of it. But the strange horse and vanilla are both Coming from the grassland, I am afraid that it is also inseparable from Rongguo."

Lu Qipei interfaced at the right time: "Your Majesty, it doesn't matter who planned all of this, the important thing is Liang Rong's feud."

This sentence seemed to wake up the emperor, causing him to narrow his eyes slightly.
