"Qing'er?"
In the study room of the Prince's Mansion in the East Palace.
Xu Yong couldn't help but frown instantly when he heard this.
Today is the last day of the 30th anniversary of Zhengde.
According to convention.
Today Emperor Zhengde will hold a banquet for hundreds of officials at Xingqing Palace.
Same reason.
There will also be a banquet in the harem for hundreds of officials and their female relatives.
As the crown prince of the current dynasty, Shangguan Qing'er would be extremely busy on this day.
But now.
Shangguan Qing'er, who should have been extremely busy, hurriedly returned to the East Palace, saying that she was looking for him in an emergency.
Moreover, Zhan Zhufang left the East Palace not long ago.
Shangguan Qing'er arrived.
This...how can Xu Yong not think too much?
For a while.
Xu Yong felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart.
"Creak" a light sound.
Xu Yong didn't have time to think carefully and opened the closed door.
"Where is the Crown Princess now?"
Xu Yong quickly looked at the young female officer who was bowing to the side and asked quickly.
Unconsciously, there was a hint of panic in his voice.
"Return to your highness."
"The Crown Princess is waiting for you in the bedroom."
The young female officer heard the words and replied quickly.
...
"Husband."
After a while, Xu Yong strode to the East Palace Dormitory.
As soon as he crossed the door of the dormitory, Crown Princess Shangguan Qing'er came up to him with an anxious face.
See this.
The deep uneasiness in Xu Yong's heart suddenly increased.
"Why are you so panicked?"
Xu Yong took a few deep breaths silently, and then pretended to be calm and asked.
Perhaps Xu Yongyun's calm attitude quietly soothed Shangguan Qing'er's panicked heart.
Shangguan Qing'er took a deep breath several times after hearing this, and then quickly replied: "I am busy in the palace today."
"Eunuch Liu who was beside my mother-in-law quietly found my concubine."
"Eunuch Liu said that his mother and concubine ordered me to return to the East Palace immediately to find my husband and ask a question."
"Also, this matter is related to my husband's life and death."
"I must take care of my concubine, and this matter must not be leaked to anyone."
Hear this.
Xu Yong could no longer keep his face calm and calm.
The deep uneasiness in his heart was now close to reality.
"What do you want to ask, concubine?"
Seeing Shangguan Qing'er hesitate to express her feelings in a panic, Xu Yong, whose face was full of anxiety, couldn't help but urge her.
Shangguan Qing'er was slightly startled when she heard this, and then quickly replied: "The concubine asked her husband if he still remembers what caused the injury on his right foot."
The words are over.
Xu Yong, who had no time to think carefully, couldn't help but lower his head and look into Shangguan Qing'er's eyes.
As if waiting for the next step.
However, he waited and waited but could not wait for the next step.
"Gone?"
Seeing this, Xu Yong couldn't help but be surprised.
"Gone."
Shangguan Qing'er, who was confused, nodded and confirmed.
"startled."
Xu Yong couldn't help but pause for a few breaths after hearing this.
After counting the interest.
Xu Yong calmed down for a moment, and then said: "Today there is a big banquet in the harem for all the officials and their wives."
"Qing'er must not leave the palace for too long. She should return earlier."
The words are over.
Seeing Shangguan Qing'er opening her mouth to speak, she seemed to want to ask further questions.
Xu Yong couldn't help but speak again: "What my mother and concubine asked me, I have made my own decision in my heart, so Qing'er doesn't need to worry."
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Qing'er could only forcefully dispel all the doubts in her heart.
After Shangguan Qing'er's figure completely disappeared from the back of the dormitory.
The pretense of calmness and calmness on Xu Yong's face instantly dissipated without a trace.
Instead, there was a deep solemnity.
Based on his understanding of Concubine Li.
Concubine Li would never ask such a question for no reason.
"What caused the injury on the right instep?"
"What caused the injury on the right instep?"
"What caused the injury on the right instep?"
Xu Yong whispered a few words with an extremely solemn expression.
at the same time.
Xu Yong silently took off his right shoes and socks.
Gone with the shoes and socks.
An extremely shallow and irregular scar as big as an adult's thumb suddenly appeared in Xu Yong's eyes.
"Where did this scar come from?"
"What was the injury caused by?"
The moment I saw the scar.
Xu Yong, who had a solemn face, couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
After a while.
Xu Yong suddenly came back from his deep thoughts.
"I remember now!"
"This scar was caused by the concubine kicking the heating cauldron angrily after returning from the imperial palace in the winter of that year, causing the charcoal to spill out!"
"This scar is caused by charcoal burns."
"It's charcoal."
"Yes...it's Tan..."
"It's Tan... a test!"
The word temptation comes out.
Layers of cold sweat instantly broke out on Xu Yong's forehead.
His body was trembling unconsciously.
"Test!"
"This is a test!"
"The so-called grand banquet for hundreds of officials on behalf of the king is simply a complete test!"
"He's testing me!"
"He's testing me!"
"Father, he is testing me!"
Thinking about this.
Xu Yong's face instantly turned pale as a sheet.
In fact, I can't even imagine it.
If there is no reminder from Concubine Li.
How much of his true nature will be exposed inadvertently when he is so complacent.
Notice.
People who get carried away often become very happy unconsciously.
And in this case, the fate waiting for him is naturally self-evident.
"Father, your suspicion is indeed still that serious."
"Being your son is like walking on thin ice all the time!"
Thinking about this.
Xu Yong's face was as pale as paper, and he looked towards the palace's Nourishing Heart Hall with fear on his face.
After a while.
The fear on Xu Yong's face gradually dissipated.
Instead, there was a strong sense of madness.
"Father, Father."
"What if I fall into this temptation?"
"Who will you make the crown prince?"
"Xu Yi?"
"Hahaha, Father, Father! You! Hugh! Think! He! Hugh! Think!"
"That chair is alone! It can only be alone!"
"Anyone who dares to touch it will die without a burial!"
Xu Yong stared at the location of the Yangxin Hall of the Imperial Palace, and the madness on his face gradually turned into a ferocious look.
After more than a hundred breaths.
Xu Yong withdrew his cold gaze towards the Yangxin Hall of the Imperial Palace.
Then he raised his hands and rubbed his ferocious face vigorously.
Until his face became slightly hot and all the ferocious color on his face dissipated.
Xu Yong suddenly turned around and went straight to the study room in the outer courtyard.
After a while.
In the study room of the Prince's Mansion in the East Palace.
As the study door closed again.
A look of madness and ferocity suddenly appeared on Xu Yong's face.
"Huh~
!」
Xu Yong exhaled heavily, and then walked quickly to the bookshelf filled with priceless things.
Gently turn a blue and white jade pure bottle.
As the blue and white jade purification bottle slowly rotates.
A dark grid gradually appeared on the wall nearby.
There is a rosewood box that is the same as before hidden in the secret compartment.
With a ferocious look on his face, Xu Yong took out an account book about two fingers thick from the rosewood box.
The account book was filled with densely packed Taoist scriptures that were incomprehensible.
Xu Yong, who had a ferocious face, took a deep look at the Taoist scriptures about two fingers thick in his hand.
The corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.
The fat face full of ferocious color instantly became more ferocious and terrifying.
