Once the Crown Prince Joins In - #397 - 398: Broken leg

King Rong swallowed the cake in his mouth, stared into the distance, drank some water to smooth his throat, and then said: Go to the junction of Huishan and Fengpingwei. New 69 Book Bar → 69𝒔𝒉𝒖𝒙.𝒄𝒐𝒎

Yang Jin was stunned, Your Highness?

King Rong said slowly: Mu Xing is very skilled. He is a person who can compete with Su Xinyi. Don’t forget that he is a killer and his hiding skills are better than ordinary people. He is very skilled and good at hiding, but now he is missing. Well, there are only two explanations.

Yang Jin frowned when he heard this, Either Mu Xing found the commander and they were trapped together, or they escaped together, or it was true…

Dead.

When the caravan was walking outside the Great Wall, Mu Xing was always the one exploring the way. If he really died, some people would feel uncomfortable. King Rong snorted.

Su Xinyi is a very strange person. In her eyes, there is no difference between the three religions and the nine classes. For example, the beggar leader or that old man, she can squat on the street and chat happily with others.

Mu Xing had killed her before, and she could think of a way out for him when she turned around.

He is obviously extremely cruel, but his heart is extremely short-tempered.

Cheer, the benevolence of a woman.

However, because of Su Xinyi’s kindness as a woman, he is now here to find someone for her. So, isn’t he the most pitiful person?

He couldn’t get anything, so he had to work as an errand boy for her.

King Rong couldn’t think anymore and went to sleep.

Yang Jin arranged for someone to keep vigil at night. He leaned against the bonfire with his knife in his arms and closed his eyes. But in his mind, how long would it take to reach the junction of Huishan and Fengpingwei from here?

What places will they pass along the way? Huishan County was also one of the places where the granary accident happened. When they came to rescue people this time, they couldn’t alert the snake. How to plan the route without alerting the Huishan County Magistrate…

Also, what if you can’t find anyone?

Where to go next?

If you want to meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, where is the safest place to start…

With his mind full of things, Yang Jin had an uneasy sleep. Before the time came, he rubbed his eyes and sat up.

The bonfire had mostly been extinguished, and the guarding soldiers had also changed their shifts. They were quietly preparing breakfast. When they saw him getting up, they hurriedly greeted him.

Yang Jin waved his hand. This dry pancake was really hard to eat.

Their prince used to not even look at such things, but now there are more of them, and the food is much harder to eat. Even having pancakes to eat feels like a good thing.

Yang Jin smiled when he thought of this, and asked someone to boil a large pot of water to cool down, and then poured it into a cowhide water bag to drink on the way.

King Rong got up without waiting for anyone to call him. He ate the slightly soft pancakes with everyone, swallowed them with water, and set off again under the morning dew.

On the other side, Su Xinyi in the East Palace was having breakfast, listening to Forsythia’s reply from the side while eating.

The third master has sent a letter here. Aunt Weng has made arrangements for you, so you don’t have to worry. In addition, the third master has informed the fifth girl that it is not convenient for the fifth girl to come to the East Palace to see you now. Please let the third master I will convey my gratitude to her.

Su Xinyi was a little surprised when he heard this. He didn’t expect that San Bo would move so quickly, and that Su Xixian’s side had already made arrangements.

Forsythia looked at the Crown Princess with a good look on her face, and then continued: Zhan Qiao said there seems to be new news from Zeng Liang, and he will go there today.

Su Xinyi frowned slightly when he heard this, Didn’t Zeng Liang go back to Qingjinfang?

I have gone back, but it seems that there are still people staying. My slaves don’t understand this very well. Zhan Qiao said that beggars all over the world belong to the same family. It seems that Zeng Liang is connected with beggars from other places.

Su Xinyi:……

In just a few days, if Zeng Liang were ten years younger, he would have dragged all the beggars in the capital over.

I’m afraid King Yi will keep an eye on him and tell him to be careful. Su Xinyi was quite worried. Originally, Zeng Liang was about to retire. If he risked his life by working for her, then she would really be wrong. Live him.

Prince Princess, don’t worry. Zhan Qiao was worried at first. Later, he found out that Zeng Liang was haunted. The cunning rabbit has three burrows. Zhan Qiao said that Zeng Liang was afraid that he had eighteen burrows.

Su Xinyi was immediately amused, Did Zeng Liang tell him?

That’s not true. It’s just that Zhan Qiao met Zeng Liang recently, and the place was different every time. It shows that he is cautious.

People become better with age. People like Zeng Liang can live to this age. They have experienced many things and met many people, so they naturally have their own set of things to pay attention to.

Then tell Zhan Qiao to be careful. Su Xinyi paused here, Don’t let people from King Yi find out that we have recent contact with Zeng Liang. This will be detrimental to Zeng Liang.

People like King Yi didn’t dare to attack the East Palace blatantly, but they didn’t have that much worry about Zeng Liang.

Moreover, as Zeng Liang, if something really happened, it would be hard for her to stand up for a beggar for no reason.

It is better to be careful in everything than to regret later.

Yes, that slave will go now. Zhan Qiao will be leaving soon.

Go ahead.

Forsythia hurriedly turned around.

Su Xinyi finished her breakfast and walked slowly under the eaves. Delphinium and a few young palace maids were packing things in the East Palace. Now that winter is approaching, some things that are not needed in autumn can be dried and sealed. The box is put away.

Because of this, it was very lively outside, so she stood under the eaves and looked at them, feeling happy. New𝟔𝟗Book Bar𝟨𝟫𝒔𝒉𝒖𝒙.𝒄𝒐𝒎

Aunt She walked along the corridor, holding a basic booklet in her hand. She saluted the Crown Princess and said with a smile: These are the accounts of the East Palace for the past ten years. The Crown Princess has passed it by.

Su Xinyi didn’t want to look at it for the time being, so she said to Grandma She, Just keep it for now. I’ll look at it later.

Aunt She nodded, Although there are many things in the East Palace, they are always well taken care of. The Crown Princess will also take care of it later.

With grandma here, I feel relieved. Su Xinyi said happily.

Aunt She also smiled and said softly: I just got the news. Concubine Li asked to see your majesty last night. Your majesty went to Zhaoyu Palace and stayed there for the night.

Su Xinyi was a little surprised when he heard this. His Majesty didn’t stay in the harem very often recently, and Concubine Li rarely saw her in the past month or two.

Now His Majesty has gone to Zhaoyu Palace again and stayed there for the night. Is it because Prince Xiang is about to get married, or is His Majesty thinking about Concubine Li again?

This is not good news for Su Xinyi.

Where’s the Queen?

Everything in Yuan Hui Palace is as usual, but Concubine Ruan Ming has been walking to Yuan Hui Palace more frequently recently. Grandma She paused as she said that, Princess Wu has been visiting the palace more often recently to pay her respects.

Su Xinyi couldn’t help but frown when she thought of Ji Yun. She knew that there was something wrong with the Ji family and Ji Yun, but Concubine Ruan Ming didn’t know.

The Empress doesn’t know if she will order Ruan Mingfei a little. This kind of thing has not been brought to the table yet, and I’m afraid the Empress won’t make it public so as not to alert others.

Seeing the Crown Princess frowning, Grandma She said, Is the Crown Princess worried that Princess Wu has other plans?

Su Xinyi nodded, Yes.

This kind of thing is easy to handle. Just prevent Princess Wu from leaving Prince Wu’s mansion. Aunt She said with a smile.

Su Xinyi was stunned, Can’t you leave Prince Wu’s Mansion?

Aunt She nodded, The Crown Princess has always been aboveboard in doing things and is unwilling to use unscrupulous means, but such means are commonplace for married women.

Su Xinyi understood what Nanny She meant in an instant. Yes, hadn’t Princess Pingjing used these methods to embarrass herself in her previous life?

Precisely because she had suffered such hardship herself, she never thought of using such means to embarrass others.

Seeing the hesitant look on the Crown Princess’s face, Grandma She said softly: Princess, just asking Princess Wu to stay in Prince Wu’s Mansion obediently and not to cause trouble is already a very gentle method. If Princess Wu really makes trouble in the palace If you ask for something, I’m afraid things will become big by then.

After hearing what Nanny She said, Su Xinyi knew that she could not be soft-hearted, so she nodded and said: Nanny is right, it is not easy for Concubine Ruan Ming. If she is really implicated by Princess Wu, then… just how to do this matter , but also think about it carefully.”

Prince Concubine, this old slave thinks that Concubine Ruan Ming may have noticed it herself, otherwise she wouldn’t have run so diligently to Yuan Hui Palace. Grandma She said.

Su Xinyi was thoughtful, what Grandma She said made sense, but she didn’t think of it for a moment.

In this case, things will be easier to handle. Concubine Ruan Ming has always been cautious in doing things. If she guesses something, she will arrest Princess Wu without anyone else taking action.

When Su Xinyi said this, she looked at Nanny She, Mom, the stewardess Ruan Mingfei sent to Prince Wu’s Mansion before, can you get on the line here?

Aunt Xu? Nanny She thought for a moment and then shook her head, I’m not familiar with Nanny Xu, but it’s not easy to strike up a conversation now, but it’s not difficult to get the news out.

Su Xinyi said: Then let Aunt Xu know that Princess Wu has impure intentions and has other plans for marrying King Wu. Don’t make things too clear, but let Aunt Xu know that she can It is enough to determine that this matter is not groundless.

This is easy to handle. Nanny She immediately agreed, There are purchasers in every government, and news spreads the fastest. I will go and do it now, and I will keep the news about Nanny Xu tomorrow.

Then thank you for your hard work, mama.

Not long after Grandma She left, Su Xinyi basked in the sun for a while, and then Forsythia came back. Seeing that she looked not quite right, Su Xinyi sat up straight.

Princess, something happened.

what’s up?

Just now, my servant went to see Zhanqiao. Zhanqiao has just received news that Mr. Jiang was beaten last night. He was beaten so hard that one of his legs was broken.

Jiang Zhongnian was beaten? Su Xinyi really didn’t expect it, What happened?

Last night, Mr. Jiang and some of his friends were buying books at the bookstore. A few gangsters rushed out from nowhere and insisted on buying books with them. They grabbed whatever Mr. Jiang and the others bought, and the two sides started arguing. I don’t know who started the fight first.”

Then what? Su Xinyi asked again.

During the chaos, Second Young Master Jiang was kicked by someone. The kick was so powerful that his leg was broken on the spot. Lian Qiao’s face turned pale as she spoke, How could things be so coincidental? This servant feels like this Was it targeted intentionally?”

It’s not that it’s not, but that the broken leg must have been intentional.

But who did it deliberately, Su Xinyi can’t tell now.

Mrs. Jiang said before that there is a way, is this the way?

However, if the broken leg is not well maintained, Jiang Zhongnian’s career will be cut off if there is any flaw. When selecting court officials, one thing must be that they must have sound limbs and good appearance. Even those who are too ugly or have problems with their hands and feet are not allowed. Even if you are talented, you can’t choose.

If it wasn’t Mrs. Jiang, who would it be?

Ruffian?

Su Xinyi’s mind flashed, and Zeng Liang’s face blurred in front of her eyes.

If it were Zeng Liang, he would have no reason to attack Jiang Zhongnian.

If it wasn’t Zeng Liang who used such unflattering means, she would have suspected that it might be King Yi.

But why did King Yi attack Jiang Zhongnian at this time?

There’s no reason either.

Su Xinyi’s mind was spinning rapidly, and she couldn’t figure out the reason for a while, but one thing she knew was that it was definitely not as simple as a broken leg.

Suddenly, Su Xinyi thought of Mrs. Zhu and immediately looked at Forsythia, Go to Prince Rong’s Mansion in person and ask Princess Rong to come over.

Hey, slave, let’s go right away. Forsythia turned around and left.

Su Xinyi had someone move the wicker chair out, and she sat under the eaves of the corridor to bask in the sun, slowly waiting for Zhu Chanyi.

The third uncle said that Aunt Weng’s side was well prepared. Not long after this news came, something happened to Jiang Zhongnian’s side. Are the two related?

Things are complicated, but in the final analysis, they all have something to do with King Yi. Because there are so many threads, Su Xinyi must be more cautious when doing things here, and cannot accidentally touch King Yi.

Not long after, Forsythia arrived with Princess Rong.

Su Xinyi looked at the two of them in surprise.

Forsythia opened her mouth and said: My servant has not yet arrived at Prince Rong’s Mansion, but I met Princess Rong on the way and we came together.

Zhu Chanyi came forward to greet him.

Su Xinyi stood up and said with a smile: I was bored here for a while, so I invited my seventh younger brother and sister to come over and talk. Unexpectedly, we thought of going together.

Zhu Chanyi said yes with a smile and followed Su Xinyi into the inner hall.

After entering the door, Forsythia stood up and served tea, then went outside to guard the door.

Here, Su Xinyi asked Zhu Chanyi to sit down, and then said: Do you know what happened about Jiang Zhongnian’s broken leg?

Zhu Chanyi’s face turned pale.

As soon as Su Xinyi saw it, he knew that his guess was correct. Mrs. Zhu must know the inside story, and Zhu Chanyi also gained confidence.

That’s why I came here. It happened so suddenly. My mother and Mrs. Jiang changed their minds at the last minute. It’s just that they pity the Second Young Master Jiang for suffering such a fate.

Su Xinyi’s expression was very subtle when she heard this. She actually guessed it right at the first reaction. It was really related to Mrs. Jiang.

Mrs. Jiang really hates Yan Qiongsi as her daughter-in-law, and she doesn’t hesitate to be cruel to her son. I’m afraid she is the one who will suffer the most at this moment.

Tell me, what’s going on? Su Xinyi knew that this matter had changed, and it must be something serious, otherwise the two ladies would not be forced to make such a decision at this time.
