true

The slightly embarrassed Jingyan understood.

Unexpectedly, in private, Jingyan and Jingyu's family were separated to such an extent, and he felt more relieved.

But he said, "Your Seventh Emperor Uncle is too fierce, grandpa will punish him for you." As he said this, he walked over and patted Jingyan on the back twice, causing everyone to laugh.

"Princess, please." The maid led Nihuang all the way to Zhaoren Palace, and said, "Your Majesty got some cakes from Yunnan, remembering that Prince Mu must miss the taste of his hometown after he hasn't returned home for a long time, so I invited him to Zhaoren Palace Go, now the empress is going to the banquet, but she has to trouble the princess to come and pick up the little prince."

"It's okay, it's Qing'er who is ignorant and disturbed the empress."

"Your Majesty ordered, the night is heavy and the dew is heavy, the princess does not need to leave in a hurry, you can rest in Zhaoren Palace and drink a glass of water and wine to warm your body."

"Nihuang is full of filial piety, so it is not suitable to stay for a long time."

"Princess, to be honest, the lady said that she will get out of the dinner later to meet with the princess, and she said that there is something in Yunnan that she would like to ask for your help."

Nihuang pondered for a moment, "...Since that's the case, it's disturbing."

----

Nihuang is filial, so she cannot attend the dinner, and now that the war in Southern Chu has just subsided, she will definitely not stay in the capital for long.If you want to keep her, you can only do it when she visits Mu Qing in the palace tonight.

The maid persuaded Nihuang to stay in Zhaoren Palace and then retreated. When she was walking to the Imperial Garden, she saw a little child standing on the bridge. She took a closer look and found that it was the heir of King Qi.

She found Qingsirou for Concubine Yue, and carried Mu Qing to Zhaoren Palace. She only waited for Nihuang to drink Qingsifang when she went to Zhaoren Palace to visit her younger brother, and then introduced the foreign ministers who had arranged earlier to the palace. Come and you're done.

Now that I have nothing to do with myself, I can spend a good year with my sisters.She felt relaxed in her heart, and she liked the round and cute Ting Sheng very much, and seeing no one around, she couldn't help hugging him.

"Why are you alone in such a cold place?"

"I got separated from my mother, my sister is a palace servant from the Weaving and Dyeing Department, right?"

The maid was startled, although she seldom appears in the palace, there are more than a hundred maids in the palace, even the guards can't recognize them all, how could a child recognize her?

"Sugar." As he spoke, he stuffed a plum into the maid's mouth with his small hand. Seeing that there were still some pastry crumbs around Tingsheng's mouth, he smiled and took out a handkerchief to wipe it off, "Thank you, little prince, for the reward."

"Does sister like me?" Ting Sheng asked after seeing the maid finished eating the plums.

"The eldest son, Yuxue, is cute. If the slave girl said something beyond the norm, it would be great if the younger brother in the family was as cute as the eldest son."

"But you love me and pet me, because I am the son of King Qi." The child looked down and played with her silk handkerchief, and seemed to like it very much. Court, probably only be beaten and scolded by you."

"...Why did the prince say that?"

"You are a skater, right?"

The words that suddenly came out of the mouth of the child in her arms, the voice was still childish and immature, but it made her feel terrified.

She lowered her head in disbelief, only to see the child looking at her with a pair of clear and bright eyes, but it was such a pair of eyes that made her clothes drenched in a moment in this cold winter.

On New Year's Eve, in this deserted garden, she was just a three-year-old child in front of her, but she was so scared that her teeth were chattering.

"My son... Who did you listen to?"

"This pattern is a favorite pattern used by girls of the Hua tribe. I wonder if the one who taught my sister to embroider this pattern was Princess Linglong or Princess Xuanji?"

"What...Princess, I haven't heard of this servant, the prince must be tired, go back to the main hall quickly." She said that she was about to leave, but her feet were weak, and she couldn't stand still, and fell on the bridge railing superior.

No wonder she was so surprised.

No one in this world can recognize such a pattern unless they are familiar with the slippery people.

In the 11 years after Jingyan ascended the throne, there was once a major case that shocked Jinling.

Jingyan was poisoned by an arrow at the Autumn Hunting Ceremony, and it was the remnants of the Hua tribe that were let go that year who poisoned him.

The situation after that can't be described as close to death. If Lin Chen, the master of Langya Pavilion, hadn't rushed to treat him in time, the dangerous poison would have taken the life of his only relative in this world.

After that time, Ting Sheng secretly expelled all the remaining Hua people in Jinling City from Beijing, searched through all the records related to the Hua people, and learned about many past events... such as the case of Princess Xuanji and Chi Yan.

So just now when the court lady was wiping Mu Qing's hands, she recognized at a glance that the handkerchief was embroidered with the pattern of phoenix flowers with clouds that Hua women love most.

I don't know whose plot this woman is to help Concubine Yue harm Nihuang, even if it wasn't Princess Xuanji's order, this death is not wronged to the Hua clan.

Because of being well-raised, the little doll's face was flushed on the night of the first lunar month, and she was holding a delicate muff.

"If something happens to Princess Nihuang in Jinling, even if Lin Shu doesn't blame him, he will certainly blame himself."

"It's nothing more than messing with the court, but you want to use such a dirty thing to stain his eyes." The child's eyes became cold little by little, "Then you will have to die."

Suddenly I heard a group of people coming into the imperial garden, the guards were all holding torches, calling out the name of Xiao Shizi, and the leader was clearly Prince Jing.

"Does sister know why I have to tell you so much?"

The maid could not speak a word.

"In order to wait for him." Xiao Shizi saw the person coming from a distance, and his brows and eyes were crooked with a smile. "I haven't gone back for so long, he must be worried and come to me. Even if the dinner has already started, neither the emperor nor the mother is there." If you notice, he will find out."

"What you said...is not King Qi, but Prince Jing!?"

"My sister found out too late." Xiao Shizi smiled, his brows crooked, "The plums you ate just now are poisonous, anyway, you are going to die tonight, don't mind if I add another crime to you."

"……what did you say?"

"I said, I'm going to be pushed into the pool by you." As he spoke, the child sitting on the bridge yelled for help, then leaned back and fell into the freezing water.

Now that he fell into the water, all the forbidden troops would be mobilized, and the foreign ministers would not be able to enter Zhaoren Palace at all, so Princess Nihuang's crisis would be solved by itself.

The maid found out when he fell into the water that the child was holding her handkerchief tightly in her hand, she couldn't help being shocked, she wanted to reach out to grab him, but she couldn't lift her arm anymore.

In the dark night, the sound of falling water was very clear, and almost everyone's eyes were attracted.

Jingyan yelled at Ting Sheng, and immediately ran over with big strides, but Nie Feng couldn't stop him, so he took off his cloak and jumped into the pool immediately.

to be continued

I'm literally running out of ideas for this chapter...

Tingsheng is officially launched.

He has always firmly believed that Tingsheng will not rebel, not only because he is the child of King Qi, but also because he was brought up by Jingyan alone, that is his only relative, and he will not betray him.

But it doesn't mean that Tingsheng is not black-bellied ww this young man can endure humiliation in the palace for 11 years, and has been taught by Mei Changsu, his IQ should be top-notch.Including that he pretends to be unfamiliar with Jingyan in front of people (this is what Jingyan wants to show) and knows how to use his childish body to protect Jingyan.

What's more, because he has seen the warmth and coldness of human relationships, he can better understand that he must protect the relatives he values.

The water in the pool was not deep, and the surrounding guards and others also jumped into the water one after another to help, and those on the shore also called more people, and they dragged both of them up within a few strokes.

Nie Feng restrained the maid on the bridge, saw her lips were blue and her eyes were frozen, he couldn't help saying, "No, she took poison!"

But at this moment, it was useless to pick the woman's throat again, the maid opened her mouth but did not speak, she vomited some blood and passed out, and died before she was carried in front of Emperor Liang.

"Someone actually murdered my grandson on New Year's Eve! Concubine Jing Yuchen is not here, is there anyone in the harem who can't stand it!"

The singing and dancing stopped suddenly, and everyone, including Princess Nihuang and Mu Qing who rushed over, knelt in the hall in silence.

"It's such a vicious heart to push such a small child into the cold winter water!" Liang Di was so angry that his face was livid, and his voice trembled sharply, "Drag her out for me, whip her corpse Ling Chi! Then Go find out which palace she is from! Bring them all to me!"

Gao Zhan hurried in, followed by Jingyan and an imperial doctor, "Your Majesty, His Highness King Jing and the imperial doctor are here."

Emperor Liang hurriedly asked, "How is Chengting?"

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness is not awake yet." The imperial doctor bowed and replied, "Your Majesty is young and cannot withstand such a cold, I am afraid..."

Emperor Liang trembled, and took a step forward, "I'm afraid it's something!"

"I'm afraid, even if you don't get rid of the root cause of the disease, you will have a serious illness."

"Bastard!"

"Fortunately, His Royal Highness King Jing got into the water and was rescued in time, otherwise, if he choked on a few more mouthfuls of water, I'm afraid it really..."

Only now did Emperor Liang see Prince Jing kneeling beside him. Although he seemed to be in no serious condition, his face was also frighteningly ugly, "This time it's thanks to you."

King Jing was wearing Nie Feng's cloak, and the raised fingers were bloodless white, "I happened to see the son's nanny wandering around, and after asking, I knew where he had gone, so I asked Commander Nie Helped to find, and just arrived at the imperial garden, I heard the sound of the prince calling for help and fell into the water, and saw this woman pushing him into the pool..." After speaking, his voice trembled with anger and distress.

"Your Majesty." The imperial doctor boldly stepped forward, "When the young prince fell into the water, he was holding a handkerchief tightly in his hand...it must have belonged to that woman."

Emperor Liang squinted his eyes and looked at the past, as if he couldn't see anything at a glance.
