Prince of Prey's Little Ginseng Extract [Transmigration Book]

Jiang Ling reached out to pick up the big hand covering her face: "Why?"

Xiao Shengyun didn't answer. Naturally, Jiang Ling also failed to remove the big palm on his face, and couldn't see the man's eyes that suddenly deepened.

No one spoke, and in the silence, Jiang Ling heard insects chirping outside the window, her eyes were covered, her hearing became sharper, and for a moment, Jiang Ling heard Xiao Shengyun's heavier breathing.

"Your Highness...?"

Jiang Ling blinked, and her slender eyelashes lightly swept across the man's palm, bringing a tingling sensation.

Xiao Shengyun turned his eyes away, and his voice was slightly hoarse: "What else did he say to you?"

"He asked me how long I had been married to His Highness, Your Highness, let me go, are you not used to seeing me?"

Xiao Chengyun took a deep breath, and removed the hand covering the boy's eyes.

Adapting to the light again, Jiang Ling went to the bed and sat down: "Speaking of lotus seeds, I picked a lot of lotus pods today, did your Highness have someone bring them back?"

"Bring it back, how about eating lotus seed porridge tomorrow morning?"

"Yes! Your Highness, the lotus pods I picked are delicious. They are very tender and not bitter at all. The boat goes deep into the lotus, and the scenery is very beautiful. You can also pick the lotus pods and eat them. I eat a lot during the day, and fishing is also a must. It's very fun, I can catch a lot, the Ninth Prince only caught six small fish, and he has been watching me catch..."

Jiang Ling rambled about the interesting things during the day, Xiao Shengyun sat beside him, listening with a smile, echoing a few words from time to time.

Jiang Ling found fun, and the Ninth Prince invited him to play again, but he didn't refuse, he came and went, and became familiar with Zhan Lezhang.

He has a good personality. At the beginning, the sons who gathered around the Ninth Prince were afraid of his status as a princess and did not dare to get too close to him. After a few visits, he found that he was not airy and was very comfortable to get along with. Gradually, Jiang Ling got to know him. There are more and more friends.

Jiang Ling heard a lot of amusing things from them, as well as gossip from the aristocratic family.

For example, Jiang Yaohua's condition is getting worse and worse. The imperial doctor said that if he can't find a solution, he may become more and more crazy.

"I didn't like him very much before. Relying on my status as the son of the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, I bullied the weak. The people who gather around him are some dudes who like to bully the weak. Being punished by the sage and the prince is also what they deserve." The young master in the white gown said.

He is Zhang Shimian, the son of Grand Scholar Zhang. In the past few days, he has gradually become familiar with Jiang Ling, and found that Jiang Ling is completely different from the rumors, and he is a person worthy of friendship.

It is no secret in Beijing that the relationship between the Crown Princess and Jiang's family is not on good terms. Before talking about Jiang's family affairs, Zhang Shimian tried to make sure that Jiang Ling really didn't care, so he brought up this topic.

"You didn't have a very good reputation abroad before, did the Jiang family do it on purpose?" Zhang Shimian peeled the lotus seeds and put them in a small dish for Jiang Ling to take. This is their habit. Very slowly, when they were chatting, they would peel some for Jiang Ling along the way.

"It's not very good, I don't know how they spread it..."

"It doesn't matter if you don't know," another young man said, "It will affect your mood if you know it. Don't worry, when we go back, make sure to let those people know that you are not that kind of person."

There are only five people who can really make friends with the Ninth Prince and were introduced to Jiang Ling by the Ninth Prince. Although they like to play, they are not the kind of people who have no bottom line. Yes, Concubine Xian will not let people with evil intentions stay by her son's side.

These people are not too old and have not formally entered the officialdom. Perhaps in the eyes of others, they are the children of aristocratic families who are unlearned and incompetent, but Jiang Ling is very comfortable getting along with them.

"Have you heard the news from the capital? That day when the dancer assassinated King Li, the Holy One was furious and sent someone to investigate at Prince Li's mansion. As expected, the body of the dancer sister was found. It is said that she was tortured so badly. No wonder Li Wang suppressed the news."

"It shouldn't be. When Li Wang took this person into the mansion, he was very happy. He doted on him for a long time, and even the side concubine who has always been favored was left out in the cold. How could he not torture him to death?"

"Isn't it Li Wang? It's because of the dispute in the backyard?"

This conjecture is not unreasonable. The dancer is favored, envied, and murdered, which makes sense.

"If it's because of the dispute in the backyard, King Li shouldn't have done nothing."

"For the children of the royal family, killing a few slaves is not a big deal. King Li probably didn't expect that the dancer had a sister with a strong personality. In order to avenge her sister, she would assassinate her in public at the cost of her life. Things got out."

When things get serious, it's not just a matter of a dancer's life, but also a loss of personal morality. For a prince who wants to fight for the throne, the impact is huge.

"The Zheng family is also unlucky these days, being targeted frequently, King Li can't protect himself, let alone protect them, that Rong Xu probably hates the Zheng family to the core, like a poisonous snake, catching people and not letting him go."

"The Zheng family killed his mother and almost ruined his official career. It's normal for him to hate the Zheng family."

Jiang Ling supported her head, listening with great interest. Through these people, he could understand what happened to the Jiang family, the Zheng family, the Seventh Prince and others from another angle.

"Did you go out to play again today?" Xiao Shengyun asked when he came back and saw Jiang Ling's face flushed.

"Well, I heard about what happened in Prince Li's mansion today. Was that dancer killed by King Li? How will the emperor deal with King Li?"

"The dancer girl did die at the hands of King Li, and the emperor shouldn't punish him severely." Xiao Shengyun knew a little more than others. If it wasn't for the major incident of assassination, even if Emperor Chongming knew what King Li had done, he wouldn't take it seriously. one thing.

Emperor Chongming was more concerned about whether there was someone instigating the assassination of the dancing girl, whether she was purely to avenge her sister, or whether she had other purposes.

The dancer insisted that it was just to avenge her sister, no matter how severe the punishment was, she insisted on this statement.

Emperor Chongming sent officials from Dali Temple to conduct a careful investigation, but no forces were found colluding with the dancer.

"Why did King Li kill her, or use torture?" Jiang Ling couldn't understand, if she didn't like it at first, there was no need for King Li to bring her back to the mansion.

"Ling'er, do you remember the results of the imperial physician's diagnosis and treatment when King Li fell into the water?" Xiao Chengyun led Jiang Ling to sit down.

"Are you saying that Li Wang can't do it? What does this have to do with that dancer? It can't be that dancer who made him fail, right?"

Xiao Shengyun did not answer.

"Isn't it? He really thinks so?" Jiang Ling was startled.

"After accepting the dancer girl into the mansion, Li Wang was addicted to beauty and felt more and more powerless, so that he was completely unable to act without medicine. In addition, this matter was known by the father and the side concubine was pregnant. It was vented on that dancer."

"King Li is too..." Jiang Ling didn't know how to describe it. He knew that King Li and the crown prince were at odds, and it would definitely be a huge blow to King Li if the crown prince found out that he couldn't do it. On an innocent woman.

After the case was found out, Emperor Chongming was disappointed with his son and suspended all his duties.

After all, it was a human life. Although Emperor Chongming would not allow King Li to pay for his life, the punishment he deserved was unavoidable.

After receiving the punishment, King Li was carried out, and the first news he got was the words sent by Emperor Chongming: "King Li is also grown up, this time when he returns to Beijing, he will go to the land and become a vassal."

Going to the fiefdom meant losing most of the right to compete for the throne. Under a great blow, King Li didn't bring it up in one breath and passed out.

Concubine Li rushed over and lay down on her bloody son, crying like rain.

After King Li woke up, he became even more gloomy. Jiang Ling met him once by chance, and it was very uncomfortable to be looked at by the gloomy eyes of the other party.

Li Wang stared at him like a poisonous snake waiting for an opportunity, Jiang Ling frowned: "Is there something wrong with Li Wang?"

"This king is just thinking, is it true that even the heavens are helping this good brother of this king, otherwise why Master Qianwu chose you to congratulate him, and it really made the half-dead prince back to his original state, You said, is it because of the benefits you have brought him, or because of some other reason, that my good imperial brother dotes on you?"

Li Wang did it on purpose. He wanted to provoke the relationship between Jiang Ling and the crown prince more than once. It was not for other reasons, but to make the crown prince feel better. Why the crown prince has everything and can easily get it? s things?Don't even think about it being difficult for him!

"Your Highness treats me well, naturally because he likes me." After learning about the dance girl, Jiang Ling's sense of King Li became worse. "King Li should take care of himself first, and then worry about others."

Besides, Jiang Ling could feel whether Xiao Shengyun's kindness to him was from the heart, but King Li couldn't suppress the malice all over his body, so it's no wonder he would believe his words.

"You are a man, and he is a prince. You can't give birth to a child for him. Sooner or later, he will have to accept new people. When he has someone else around him and has a child, do you think he will still treat you like he does now?"

After a moment of silence, Jiang Ling said, "You're right."

really.

Li Wang raised the corner of his mouth, but before he could widen the smile, Jiang Ling continued to speak.

"You reminded me, I'm also a man, I'll treat him as he treats me, it's fair, isn't it?"

With a half-frozen smile on his face, Li Wang had a strange expression: "You don't hate? You don't want to kill this possibility? Hold him firmly in your hands?"

Jiang Ling looked at him inexplicably: "Why should I do this? What you said is just a hypothesis, and it's not true. It's not too late to talk about it when things really happen."

Li Wang was blocked by his words, and after a while, he found his own voice: "Don't regret it in the future."

Jiang Ling said earnestly: "You can't judge others by yourself, because you have hired a lot of women yourself, so you guess that His Highness will do the same. If he is really like you, before I came, there would have been someone by his side."

Li Wang deeply felt that the one who decided to attack Jiang Ling was out of his mind, why didn't he learn the lesson, and insisted on making himself unhappy.

"I don't need King Li to bother about the matter of Gu and Ling'er. King Li should take care of his own backyard first, and don't enter anything that shouldn't be entered. People don't know."

A chilling voice sounded from behind, Li Wang turned his head and saw a man with a stern demeanor walking towards him.

Xiao Shengyun didn't give Li Wang a look, walked straight in front of Jiang Ling, and took him into his arms: "Go back."

Jiang Ling poked her head out of the prince's arms, and said to King Li, "Thank you for caring about my relationship with His Highness, don't worry, the situation you mentioned will never happen between me and Your Highness, otherwise I'm sorry for you coming here on purpose." Remind me of my 'kindness'?"

Li Wang looked at the two people who were in an intimate posture, and almost gritted his teeth in anger.
