Fall In Love With A Substitute

After the banquet, the movements of the courtiers leaving were extremely small.

There is a bright moon in the sky, and the ground is full of brilliance.

It is clearly a very bright and clear scenery, when it shines into the palace, it adds a sense of coldness and sternness.

The family banquet was not held in Mingguang Pond, but in Jingde Palace.The royal family and family members are required to attend, and as a show of grace, kings with different surnames also came together.

Originally, the family banquet was to collect tribute from the vassal king, and the second was to see how the grandchildren of each family were, so that a child could be adopted to the East Palace to inherit the incense.

But after Song Pianjue's words——

What's the point of adopting? The East Palace's incense is gone, and he still has a son who is healthy and healthy. Why don't we just let the East Palace change his master.

The emperor was thinking about it when Hong Chang came back and said:

"Go back to the emperor, the princess said, His Royal Highness is buried in Taolin."

Even though there was no leisure between the two banquets, the emperor still chose someone to ask about the crown prince's body. How could he rely on Song Pianle to say everything if he wanted to see people or dead bodies?

In the wrinkles on the emperor's face, there was a sense of exhaustion buried in lack of energy, and his voice was old:

"Let someone go find it and bring the prince back."

"Yes."

"Has Duan'er been to Jingde Palace?"

Hong Chang was taken aback: "It should be...it should be here."

The emperor closed his eyes and spoke with dissatisfaction:

"Should it be? Yixi Palace should pay more attention—tomorrow, remind me to invite two grand tutors for Duan'er."

The silent third prince who had just been lifted from the ban, seeing what happened tonight, and because he was the only prince from now on, is Jane in the emperor's heart?

Hong Chang smacked his lips and agreed.

When they arrived at Jingde Palace, the heirs of the concubines and several high-ranking concubines had already arrived.

Concubine Hui led everyone to salute, the emperor glanced, why was Song Duan not there.

As he walked in, he asked, "Where is Duaner?"

Concubine Hui didn't know, she couldn't answer, He Qiuchan held Song Yingguang in front of her, and said gracefully:

"Your Majesty, you forgot that you gave the third prince some grace. Maybe the third prince delayed a little bit of effort, and he will arrive soon after he thinks about it."

The emperor frowned, and it took him a while to remember that He Qiuchan told him a few days ago that at least it was the full moon and reunion day, so Song Duan had to meet Mrs. Xi, and he had already agreed.

But unexpectedly, Song Duan has been lingering at Xi's until now, and the banquet is late.

"Your Majesty, don't blame the Third Prince, otherwise, it's better to blame the courtiers and concubines." He Qiuchan said again.

The emperor glanced at her: "But you are soft-hearted."

He Qiuchan smiled and did not refute.

She looked behind the emperor, Song Pianlu and Feng Yuexian were both there, calm and composed, she and Feng Yuexian looked at each other without any trace, and smiled even wider.

"Your Majesty please."

The King of Chu entered the Jingde Palace immediately after, and stood together with Princess Chu, and took a seat together.

His eldest son also came, obediently followed his mother to the seat.The king of Chu was already depressed, but looking at it, each family has three or two children, but his own family has only one radish, so he can't help but feel a little depressed.

The King of Chu picked up his wine glass and quietly looked at Song Yingguang beside He Qiuchan.

Song Yingguang was looking left and right curiously, and inadvertently saw the king of Chu looking at him, showing a friendly smile.

Song Yingguang regarded the king of Chu as the elder uncle of the emperor, but in the eyes of the king of Chu, this was his good daughter, or the cuckold he wore for the most noble person in the world.

Just for this point, he saw that Song Yingguang and Song Duan were very kind.

Not to mention, with Song Duan around, there is still a lot to do in the East Palace——

When the banquet was about to start, Song Duan finally came. He was always arrogant, but today his face was pale and he didn't look energetic. The king of Chu even looked at him several times, and the emperor on his seat took the initiative to show concern for him several times.

The more the emperor said, the more Song Duan faltered and evaded cowardly, lacking confidence.

How did you meet your birth mother and become like this?

The emperor wondered, could it be that he was frightened when he saw Xi's situation?

Immediately, he decided that after the family banquet, he would move Mrs. Xi out of the cold palace and re-establish her as a virtuous concubine—it is necessary to give the new crown prince's biological mother some grace and dignity, the emperor thought lightly after taking a sip of wine.

Halfway through the banquet, everyone moved outside to admire the moon, spread out among the gardens, or went to the star-picking platform.

There are also all kinds of sideshows, which are lively.

Under the darkness of night, the palace lanterns hanging everywhere are extremely beautiful, and the candlelight flickers, but the night is more hazy, and it is difficult to see people clearly.

The King of Chu went a little farther, and went to a moon-watching pavilion on a rockery, pretending to be admiring the moon, but actually sent his bodyguards to call day lilies over for questioning.

"Duan'er is a bit unusual today, what happened in the palace?"

He knew that Song Duan didn't care much about Xi Shi, so he felt even more strange.After he learned of the prince's death, Song Duan's position in his heart increased steadily.

"I was going to report to you." Daylily bowed her head and spoke very fast, "I went to see Mrs. Xi today, she... Maybe she was ill and confused, and told the third prince's real life experience to the third prince."

King Chu stood up abruptly:

"Ms. Xi lost his mind and went crazy!"

Hemerocallis buried her head:

"Please show me, Master Xi... Do you want to stay?"

The King of Chu took a few breaths, his face was ferocious, and he said slowly:

"She said things she shouldn't have said, she—damn."

Across a path and sparse trees, bright fireworks of various colors are ignited on the star picking platform, and they go straight to the bright moon in the sky.

Because it was not far away, the king of Chu could even hear the joyful cries of the children.

"Wow, it's so beautiful." Song Yingguang raised her face, gorgeous fireworks bloomed in the night sky, filled the sky with fire, shining like stars.

Song Ruyan said: "The palace is indeed gorgeous, so we don't light up fireworks."

Song Yingguang smiled a little, and was about to answer when He Qiuchan called her over.

In the thick night, He Qiuchan pointed her in the direction, gave her some advice in a low voice, and said:

"Yingguang, do you still remember what you said yesterday? Do you remember what your mother asked you to do?"

Song Yingguang clenched her fists and nodded cautiously.

He Qiuchan couldn't bear it, but in order to make the plan safe, she could only let Song Yingguang go - adults rarely guard against children, especially Song Yingguang has always been well-behaved and innocent.

He Qiuchan brushed her pink cheeks, cruelly, and gently pushed her back:

"Go."

Song Yingguang walked obediently towards his father.

She passed by a few young cousins, who were amused by the fireworks, and Song Yingguang couldn't help but want to look back to see what a good scene the sky is at this time.

But she knew ignorantly that what she had to do was an adult's business.

She walked around the crowd with her calves, and Princess Qinghe took the opportunity to rub her face before walking in front of her father.

There should be no delay—

"Father, father." Song Yingguang called softly.

The emperor lowered his head: "Yingguang, what's the matter?"

Song Yingguang pointed to the moon-viewing pavilion that faintly revealed a pavilion roof behind the tree:

"Where is that? Erchen hasn't been there yet."

Fireworks fell wantonly in the sky, and in an instant, the night melted away, and the inside and outside of the pavilion were as bright as day.

Only then did King Chu see a figure under the Moon Viewing Pavilion.

Upon closer inspection, it was Song Duan.

"Tuaner?"

Why did Song Duan follow?

——No, it should be said, why did the guards guarding the intersection not report!

At this moment, everything is connected together.

Why Song Duan suddenly learned the truth today, why he can come to him unimpeded——

Even, why did the vassal king enter the capital early in the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Before he knew it, when he was still enjoying the matter of the prince's death, this dense cobweb woven by the East Palace had already sprinkled down on his head.

It's a pity that he didn't realize it!

The king of Chu walked quickly, and he wanted Song Duan to leave quickly.

But it was too late.

Song Duan was taken to Xi's place in the afternoon and was stimulated by his mother and concubine.

In the evening, he was trying to stay calm, and when he was joking with his father, someone knocked over something - it seemed that He Jieyu knocked over a fruit plate, and when he turned his head, he saw the figure of daylilies sneaking away.

Mrs. Xi said that daylilies belonged to the king of Chu.

Thinking of Hemerocallis's stern expression, and the missing King Chu, his so-called biological father, he followed up by a ghost, and was able to hear the conversation between King Chu and Hemerocallis in the silent night.

A young man's temperament is inherently unstable, let alone a pampered young man who is held in the palm of his hand and has never suffered.

"You want to kill my mother and concubine? Just because she told me the truth?"

Song Duan didn't care about Concubine Xian's life, but what he cared about was, is he so shameless?

Perhaps when Song Duan came to his senses, he would be the first to think of Concubine Xian's death, so that he could continue to be the noble and incomparable third prince.

But at this moment, the king of Chu was eager to erase the stain, which hurt his self-esteem.

He kicked hard at the stone beside him:

"What are you, you are worthy of being Ben Gong's father."

"I really don't know what the concubine mother thinks. A good concubine is not a good concubine, but she surrenders herself to a wolf-hearted, disrespectful thing like you."

Song Duan's mouth was flying, cursing heartily, wantonly venting the anger in his heart, or in other words, covering up his uneasiness.

The King of Chu was anxious and angry: "Shut up!"

Song Duan didn't pay attention to him, he heard the footsteps of the king of Chu getting closer in the dark night, he said loudly:

"No, Mrs. Xi is already crazy, I can't listen to her—"

"She just said that Ben Gong is your son? Maybe this is a game between you and the day lily!"

The king of Chu took three steps in parallel, stretched out his hand to restrain Song Duan, he covered Song Duan's mouth, and then strangled his throat with his elbow.

After all, King Chu was a grown man. With all his strength, Song Duan had no chance to speak, and even struggled to breathe, only his limbs were struggling crazily.

The world is quiet.

Safe.

King Chu breathed a sigh of relief.

next moment.

Not far away, the eunuch's shrill voice came:

"Your Majesty! What's wrong with you, Your Majesty?"

King Chu's face was frozen, like a puddle of frozen lime, pale.

"Come here! Doctor Xuan——"

The forbidden army came faster than the imperial doctor.

Layers of imperial guards surrounded the Moon Viewing Pavilion.

Footsteps came one after another, and everyone rushed to the Moon Viewing Pavilion.

Seeing that the king of Chu and Song Duan were restrained by the imperial army, the emperor fainted and his face was pale, everyone had a lot of speculations.

"Let go of me!"

"You guys dare to take action against Ben Gong, don't you want to die!"

Princess Chu was dizzy for a while, she said anxiously:

"What's the matter? Capture the prince and prince for no reason? How can there be such a reason?"

The commander of the imperial army did not give in half a step, standing on the ground like a cold gun, hard and indifferent:

"The emperor's dragon body is ill. They are the only ones present. Whether there is any guilt or not will be determined after the emperor wakes up."

"They are royals, and they are rich in gold!" Princess Chu threatened with arrogance.

Behind him, a voice came from afar, cold and indescribable:

"Father, it's Long Live, it's the Son of Heaven."

Princess Chu paused, and when she looked back, it was the Crown Princess.

Beside the crown princess is the princess.

Feng Yuexian took a look at Princess Chu, and his eyes stopped for a moment on Xiao Shizi who was beside her.

Princess Chu subconsciously took her son into her arms and hugged her tightly.

As the person next to the King of Chu, how could she not know that Feng Yuexian was a serious concern for the King of Chu? She thought she had a bit of scheming, but under her influence, she never underestimated Feng Yuexian.

Concubine Chu didn't dare to make trouble anymore, her heart was up and down, but she could only comfort herself, it was probably just a coincidence, it would be fine when the emperor woke up.

Concubine Chu gathered herself together, and then quietly looked at the princess who dared to replace the prince with herself.

Could a person who could get along with Feng Yuexian all day long and have an equal share of beauty, be as vicious as a wolf?

Song Pianlu didn't pay attention to her.

He Qiuchan was crying and acting beside the emperor, this was what she had to do as a favorite concubine, and it was also to further clear the suspicion.

Song Yingguang stood by, looking a little at a loss, a little dazed.

The adults were all watching the play, caring about the emperor's dragon body, and no one saw her.

Song Ruyan did talk to her, but Song Yingguang didn't seem to hear her and didn't respond.

Song Pian walked over.

For some reason, all the relatives of the emperor and the powerful were present, but they didn't dare to compete with Song Pianling in front of her.

The crowd parted like water, making way for Song Pianliu.

Song Pianliu walked behind Song Yingguang, and she stretched out her hand to cover Song Yingguang's eyes, her movements were extremely gentle.

Like a soft and green spring leaf, it carefully covers the most clear and fragile dew, preventing the dew from being hurt by the scorching sun in the world.

Song Pina spoke, her voice was like a sigh:

"never mind."

ended.
