royal husband

No matter in her previous life or now, Gu Rushuang has always been the same Gu Rushuang who treated Li Jin as before, the person Li Jin respects and loves the most besides Gu Rulan.

It is precisely because of this.

Li Jin didn't want, and didn't want to let the family relationship between them be used.

"Me too."

Ying Yuan followed Li Jin and replied solemnly.

Like Li Jin, Ying Yuan saw how Gu Rushuang had treated her these years, and at the same time her heart was touched involuntarily.

"Okay." Shi Weixu heard that the two had made up their minds, and sighed giving up, "Since Li Shizi and His Royal Highness Qin Wang don't plan to tell the Queen about this, then we can only see the tricks."

Li Jin said meaningfully, "Physician Shi, the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge. Besides, such a decision may be the best one. After all, with the emperor's eyeliner hidden in the dark, once we enter the palace to find Her Royal Highness, we may turn around." Turn around, the emperor will know."

After hearing this, Shi Weixu swallowed his saliva immediately, "Your Majesty can't do this, right?"

"Who knows? It's always good to be prepared."

Li Jin smiled and gave an ambiguous answer.

Speaking of which, Li Jin would know that Ying Zhengjing arranges eyeliner in almost every palace. It was Gu Rushuang who told him in his previous life. Even in order to win the trust of the palaces, the people Ying Zhengjing recruited to make eyeliner were cultivated since childhood. Not limited to palace people or guards.

It is conceivable how strong Ying Zhengjing's control / desire / is.

On the other hand, Gu Rushuang knew everything, but continued to do her own thing like a normal person, pretending that those eyeliners didn't exist.

dong dong.

Suddenly, a knock on the door interrupted the conversation inside, "Senior Li, someone from the Dingbei Palace said that something happened to Mrs. Tai, please go back and have a look."

Wei Rong made a move.

Li Jin narrowed his eyes and looked in the direction of the door, "Physician Shi, can you come with me to Dingbei Palace?"

After hearing this, Shi Weixu immediately nodded in agreement.

Originally, his trip out of the palace was for Li Jin, so seeing one more Wei Rong would not be a problem at all.

"Ajin, I'll go too."

There was a trace of uneasiness in Yingyuan's words.

For some reason, Yingyuan always felt something was wrong when people from Dingbei Palace came to call Li Jin late at night.

"No." Li Jin shook his head and refused, "Ajin, you are the prince after all, if you rashly follow me to the Dingbei Palace right now, I'm afraid it will arouse the suspicion of my father."

If it was normal, Li Jin wouldn't mind Ying Yuan going with him, but the bad thing now is that Li Shiyun is back.

"Okay, then I'll wait for you here."

Ying Yuan obviously also knew that it was not suitable for him to go to Dingbei Palace at this time, so he had to suppress his uneasiness and said something against his will.

Li Jin patted Ying Yuan's shoulder reassuringly, and left with Shi Weixu.

Ying Yuan, who was left alone, clenched his fists subconsciously.

Jin...

Dingbei Palace.

"Shi...Shiyun...cough cough...Is this old man dying..." Wei Rong looked at Li Shiyun dying, his face was pale.

"Mother, the doctor has tried his best to treat you, and you will be fine soon."

Although Wei Rong is always acting like a demon, which has consumed a lot of Li Shiyun's affection for her, she is Li Shiyun's biological mother after all, and Li Shiyun couldn't bear to see Wei Rong like this after all.

Suddenly, a guard walked in quickly, cupped his hands and said, "My lord, we found it."

"Say."

Li Shiyun's complexion suddenly darkened.

"My lord, my subordinates found out that Mrs. Tai drank the stew sent by Shizi Shutong, that's why...that's why..." The guard didn't dare to continue speaking in the middle of speaking.

"Li Jin?" Hearing that the matter was related to Li Jin, Ying Zhengjing frowned immediately, "Where is the book boy now?"

"I have already caught it, and I will wait for the prince to deal with it."

After the guard finished speaking, he winked, and Ping An was brought up.

"My lord, the servants have never delivered stewed soup to Mrs. Tai. They are clearly planting the blame." Send the stew.

The guard heard the words and scolded, "Peace, witnesses and evidences are gathered, and you can't deny it."

A maid came out immediately, and she was about to cry, "My lord, this servant saw Ping An pouring /medicine/ into the stew with my own eyes, but because Ping An is the person next to the crown prince, this servant dare not say anything."

Another guard, holding medicinal herbs in his hand, also came over and said, "My lord, this was found in the safe room, and it's all harmful things. There's also... and the shocking thing that killed the second son back then." eggplant."

"Belladonna? Since you have belladonna?" Wei Rong's eyes widened suddenly, "No wonder the old man couldn't receive anything in Li Jin's yard last time, cough cough...so it was you...cough cough...all It was you who secretly mentioned that bastard Li Jin to harm our Dingbei Palace."

Ping An was stunned as he watched the witnesses jump out one after another, "My lord, Mrs. Tai, I am wronged, these things are not slaves at all."

He had never seen these things before, so why did he plant them on him inexplicably.

Li Shiyun was too lazy to listen to those feeble explanations, and said indifferently, "Pull him down and torture this king until he is willing to speak out."

"Yes, my lord."

Ping An was immediately taken away by the guards.

"Ahem... Shiyun, the old man usually treats him well, why would he hurt the old man and Shen'er like this." Wei Rong took the opportunity to attribute all the crimes to Li Jin, and resolutely did not mention herself and Wei Shiwan's room. The thing about belladonna was found.

"Grandma, you'll be fine."

Li Yanchen worked tirelessly with Wei Shiwan to take care of Wei Rong.

"Cough cough... Hello, Chen'er." Wei Rong pretended, "If Chen'er is the prince of Dingbei, you will be the heir, old man... old man...cough cough..."

"Mrs. Tai, your body is important. Stop talking. Drink some water to moisten your throat."

Wei Shiwan quickly brought a glass of warm water for Wei Rong to drink.

at the same time.

The doctor who was treating Wei Rong also walked over anxiously, "My lord, Mrs. Tai's condition is very serious, I'm afraid... I'm afraid it won't last long."

After hearing this, Li Shiyun's pupils shrank, "How could this be?"

"Ahem..." Wei Rong deliberately coughed heavily several times before the doctor finished speaking, and secretly gave Wei Shiwan a look of 'well done'.

I don't know.

The moment the doctor's words fell, Wei Shiwan's eyes quickly flashed a dark light.

"My lord, the prince is back."

"Let him in."

Not a moment.

Li Jin walked in and saluted Li Shiyun and Wei Rong who was lying on the /bed/.

The old lady beside Wei Rong was the first to ask, "Your Majesty, Mrs. Tai treats you very well on a daily basis. If there are any good things, they are for you to use first. Why do you want to hurt Mrs. Tai like this?"

"My lord, you are going too far."

Wei Shiwan couldn't wait to join the ranks of criticizing Li Jin.

Li Yanchen had lingering fears about Li Jin's behavior before, and he didn't condemn Li Jin along with him, but there was a lot of gloating in Li Yanchen's eyes.

"Li Jin, your explanation." Faced with so many evidence pointing to Li Jin one by one, Li Shiyun did not immediately convict Li Jin, but listened to Li Jin's explanation before making a decision.

Wei Rong became anxious because of Li Shiyun's attitude.

"Shiyun, now that there are witnesses and evidence, what else is there to ask?"

Li Shiyun shook his head, and said calmly, "Mother, I want to hear Li Jin's explanation. After all, with Li Jin's current status, there is no need to do anything unnecessary to harm you."

Serious Jin's back stiffened immediately, and he clasped his hands anxiously and said, "My lord, your son's talent is rare, but now the evidence is so strong, please don't be fooled by your son's rhetoric."

"Li Jin, tell me."

Li Shiyun didn't take Serious Jin's words to heart, and just watched Li Jin on his own.

indeed.

It's not for nothing that Serious Jin has been the lieutenant general beside Li Shiyun for so many years.

Don't look at Li Shiyun as if he is protecting Li Jin now, in fact, Li Shiyun is only eager for love, and he doesn't want his favorite heir to disappear like this, it has nothing to do with family affection.

In other words.

If Li Jin was still the same Li Jin from before, Li Shiyun wouldn't even look at him, let alone talk to him.

Li Jin looked into Li Shiyun's eyes, "As my father said just now, I have no reason to harm my grandmother who has always been 'excellent' to me. Moreover, if it was really me who did it, I should not have chosen to be in Dingbei Palace. Let's do it."

Just as Li Jin finished speaking, she glanced at Li Yanchen intentionally or unintentionally.

Li Yanchen has never been kicked out of the Dingbei Palace in this life like in his previous life. Naturally, he has lost the sophistication and tact of his previous life. Li Jin glanced at him and couldn't help saying, "My lord, what are you looking at me for? I did it?"

Li Jin raised the corners of his lips, and said meaningfully, "Brother, your reaction is too big, I obviously didn't say anything, why did you think I would say that?"

"Uh...I...I, you..."

Li Yanchen didn't expect Li Jin to say such a thing, and he couldn't explain it.

Wei Shiwan took a step forward calmly, gave Li Yanchen a comforting look, and immediately looked at Li Jin and said, "My lord, Chen'er was also worried about Mrs. Tai's body, and she got confused for a while, please forgive me, my lord."

It's too late, it's too soon.

Just as Li Jin was answering, a guard came in from outside, cupped his hands and said, "My lord, Ping An still refuses to say anything."

"Wait, you caught Ping An?"

Hearing that something happened in Ping An, Li Jin's eyes suddenly turned cold.

After hearing this, Zhou Yunting, who was lurking in the dark, looked no better than Li Jin, or even worse.

No, I can't let Ping An suffer in vain.

Zhou Yunting really wanted to leave everything behind to save Ping An, but when he thought of the person who had harmed Ping An, he bit his hand hard and forced himself to calm down.

Li Shiyun said indifferently, "The evidence is in his room."

"Father, it has nothing to do with Ping An at this time, please let me release Ping An."
