Because they were in the royal garden, even if they were riding together with Aqi and had the legitimate opportunity to hug Aqi's strong waist that he had long speculated about, Jia Lian still didn't make any mistakes.
After returning to the camp, a team of troops were sent to guard the scene, and then they discovered that the entire royal garden was suddenly surrounded by soldiers!
People from the Prince's Palace and the Royal Forest Army came one after another to hear the news. Everyone in charge had a handsome face, as if they were their biological fathers who had died.
When my subordinates inquired about it, they found out that it was indeed about the hunting ground.
The prince organized the royal children and the best among the princes and grandsons of Beijing to play hunting games in the area surrounded by the imperial guards.
Unexpectedly, Princess Zhaoyang and her two maids lost control of their horses...
Fortunately, Princess Zhaoyang was not seriously injured, but one of her two maids fell and was injured on the spot, while the other was carried by an out-of-control horse and broke out of the protective circle of the Imperial Forest Army.
Since they were just two maids, no one near Princess Zhaoyang paid much attention to them at that time. After all, it was just as well that the princess was fine.
Who would have thought that Princess Zhaoyang seemed to have a sister-in-law relationship with the maid. When she saw her horse frothing at the mouth and fell to the ground, she immediately snatched the horse of a nearby competitor and chased her out as if she was desperate...
The information obtained was obviously inconsistent with Jia Lian's guess.
Jia Lian then heard from Xie Jun that the handsome and vigorous woman coming behind claimed to be Princess Zhaoyang, so Jia Lian became somewhat clear.
Sure enough, it was the beauty who deceived him, she was not Zhaoyang! But if she is not Princess Zhaoyang, what is her identity?
Judging from her age, she does not look like a princess or county princess in the royal family who has not yet left the cabinet, because if the princesses and wives grew up to be this old, they should all be married.
After getting married, it is naturally unlikely that a royal daughter will accompany the princes on outings.
Could it be that she is the Crown Princess? Otherwise, the current situation cannot be explained...
"General Jia, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince declares that you will come to Liufeng Courtyard immediately for an audience."
Suddenly, the chief eunuch of the Prince's Palace came to announce Jia Lian's wishes in person.
Just when Jia Lian suspected that he had taken advantage of the Crown Princess, he heard the Crown Prince summon him, and he couldn't help but murmur in his heart.
After all, he didn't dare to be careless and followed the eunuch to the central royal garden.
…
Sure enough, the whole Royal Horse Garden felt a bit jittery.
Just when he got to the Liufeng Courtyard where the prince lived, Jia Lian saw four or five levels of checkpoints along the way. Even the princes' children who were usually high-spirited and wanton with sex were staying in the makeshift tea shed to drink tea and Chatting.
But when they saw Jia Lian passing by, they seemed to be afraid that he would hear some secrets, so they kept silent.
After entering Liufeng Courtyard, he waited outside the corridor for a while before being passed into the hall.
"Jia Lian, the last general, comes to see His Highness the Crown Prince."
Entering the palace, Jia Lian followed the rules of the Wei Dynasty and performed the courtesy of a military audience.
It is not appropriate for a fourth-rank commander to claim to be a junior general in front of the prince, but a second-rank general title is enough.
"Get up..."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
After Jia Lian got up, he discovered that in addition to the prince, there were several young people in bright clothes and unruly.
One of them was Prince Duan, whom he had never met before!
Prince Duan stared at him with eyes full of jealousy, and when he saw him looking over, he turned away bitterly.
Huh, lucky guy!
The prince seemed to have a certain understanding of Jia Lian, so he didn't say anything more. After looking at Jia Lian twice, he asked in a deep voice: "I heard that you saved the maid next to Zhaoyang?"
Maid? The elder brother said yes, that’s it.
"Back to Your Highness, yes."
"What was the situation at that time..."
"At that time, the princess's maid rode quickly to the defense checkpoint set up by the general. The general was afraid of hurting her, so he did not dare to stop her. He could only let her pass first, and then he caught up with her on horseback and helped her control it. A runaway horse.
Later, Princess Zhaoyang arrived and took her back. "
Naturally, Jia Lian wouldn't say that he held the other person and rolled around on the ground three or four times!
The prince seemed to let out a sigh of relief, and a lot of the gloom disappeared from his gloomy face. His eyes looking at Jia Lian finally softened a lot.
"Very good, you did a good job... Today, you have made a great contribution..."
The prince seemed to have something to hide, and he was hesitant in his words, but finally gave it up, paused, and said: "The improper arrangements in the prince's palace today caused Princess Zhaoyang to be frightened, and I feel uneasy.
After you go down, dispose of the horse left by the princess's maid on the spot. Don't make it public, let alone spread it to the outside world. It will only make others panic. Do you understand? "
Jia Lian immediately knew in his heart that the prince was telling him and his men to keep secrets and not to say anything they shouldn't.
"I will finally understand!"
Seeing Jia Lian being so decisive, the prince felt even more satisfied.
He glanced at Prince Duan Prince Wei Xian beside him and seemed to want to say something, but a eunuch came out of the back hall and whispered a few words to the prince.
The prince's expression changed slightly, he nodded immediately, then stood up and said to Jia Lian: "You are a rare young hero in this dynasty. I am very happy that you have made another great contribution this time.
As long as you remain so loyal and loyal, the future will be yours.
As for the feud between you and Crown Prince Duan, I already know that right and wrong are no longer important. You two have learned their own lessons.
From now on, you should put aside your past grudges and assist this dynasty with all your heart, so that you can do your duty as a minister. "
The prince spoke. Although Wei Xian wanted to beat Jia Lian to death, he still stood up quickly after hearing the words, but did not speak first and waited for Jia Lian.
How could Jia Lian not understand what he meant? He raised his hands to the prince and said, "I will obey the prince's orders."
After saying that, he bowed his hands to Wei Xian and said, "I hurt the prince because of what happened last year. I did something wrong. Please forgive me."
Jia Lian's magnanimity impressed others, but also made Wei Xian extremely disappointed.
He just thought, it would be great if Jia Lian didn't know how to praise, it would be better to offend the prince because of this, and then let's see how I can kill him!
Bah, you still talk about being a filial son, but that's all. He can forgive me even if I scold his father...
"What the hell, Jia, General Jia is so polite..."
He cupped his hand casually and Wei Xian said, I was just giving the prince face.
The prince then laughed and said, "Haha, that's right. I've prepared a pot of thin tea. Here are the rare young talents of our country. You might as well have a chat here while you have the opportunity."
I have important matters to attend to, so I'm sorry. "
Well, it turns out that the young talents in the prince's heart include people like Wei Xian. Jia Lian suddenly felt that the prince just called him a "young hero", which may not mean a compliment...
…
The prince walked out of the palace, the smile on his face disappeared, turned into a dull expression, and walked to the Star Observation Tower next to him without saying a word.
When they arrived at the main building, they saw the third prince also coming under the guidance of a eunuch. The prince's face suddenly became even worse, even slightly ugly.
The third prince acted as usual. When he saw the prince, he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "I have met the eldest brother!"
The prince looked at the third prince with a deep eyebrow, and after a while he said coldly: "Third brother, I know how dissatisfied you are with me, but using such a method is too much, right?
If something goes wrong today, no matter how flawlessly you act, both of you and I will be blamed for death.
You are so bold, you really do anything to deal with me..."
The expression of the third prince changed slightly, "What does the eldest brother mean by these words? Does the eldest brother think that I couldn't do what happened today?"
"Humph, you know clearly whether you did it or not!"
The prince flicked his sleeves and stepped into the main hall.
The third prince looked extremely ugly. He took a deep breath and followed the prince in.
Turning around the layers of palace curtains, he turned a blind eye to the maids and others standing inside, until he walked into the main hall and knelt down with the prince:
"My grandson, I came here to apologize to the imperial grandmother..."
