Wen Jin and Xiao Yuchen have been staying in the dark, motionless.
The two of them watched quietly as the emperor gave the order to escort the third prince and Si Zheng away.
Until the footsteps were too far away to be heard.
Xiao Yuchen then jumped down from the tree with Wen Jin in his arms.
He was already tall, and he was holding someone in his arms. He fell to the ground like a cat, making no sound.
While Wen Jin was amazed, he still didn't forget: "Put me down."
"It's an act of urgency. If you and I are exposed, we won't be able to watch the show tonight!" Xiao Yuchen explained.
It's okay if he doesn't explain. This explanation earned Wen Jin a big look.
The two quietly slipped back to the camp and entered the tent.
Not long after, I heard the sound of other people returning to the camp from the bonfire feast.
Wen Yu was jumping and happily talking to Ji Feng.
Wen Jin came out and took a look at Wen Yu.
"Auntie, why didn't you wait for me?"
"The prince is drunk, I will send him back."
"Daddy is drunk again? He can't drink well! My aunt said that men don't need to drink, but they can't get drunk." Wen Yu said crisply.
After saying that, he shook his head helplessly, "I have to find a way for dad..."
Wen Yu's words almost forced Xiao Yuchen, who was "drunk", to show up and speak out!
He's not drunk! Not drunk!
Wen Jin touched his son's head and said, "He has his own sense of responsibility regarding the prince's affairs. You don't have to worry about him."
Wen Yu glanced at his mother and sighed like a little adult, "Daddy still needs to work hard..."
Wen Jin coaxed his son to sleep.
When she entered the tent, she saw Xiao Yuchen looking at her with burning eyes.
"I'm not drunk," he said.
Wen Jin nodded, "I know."
"I can drink pretty well," he added.
Wen Jin looked at him suspiciously and nodded, "Oh."
"I don't usually get drunk, at most..."
"My lord, how much you drink, whether you drink or not, and whether you get drunk or not are all your freedom. I will not interfere."
Wen Jin glanced outside and said, "You don't need to take Yu'er's words to heart too much. Children's words are unbridled."
Xiao Yuchen frowned slightly.
Did he care about what Wen Yu said?
He obviously cares about her indifferent attitude!
He was sulking secretly when he heard Wen Jin sigh softly.
"What's wrong?"
"Although I watched tonight's show, I don't think the result will be too optimistic." Wen Jin said.
Xiao Yuchen raised his eyebrows, "Why do you say that? What result do you want?"
Wen Jin looked at him squarely, "The third prince has plotted against people like this twice. At least he should be demoted to a commoner, placed under house arrest, or imprisoned in prison."
Xiao Yuchen nodded, "Then I understood it correctly..."
"If we just want him to be scolded again," Wen Jin shook his head, "then no one can scold a person who is pretending to sleep."
"If the emperor still cares about the relationship between father and son and refuses to punish him severely, he still has to think of other ways..."
Xiao Yuchen: "What method are you going to use?"
Wen Jin glanced at him, "Aren't you still thinking about this?"
Xiao Yuchen smiled and said, "Then you don't have to think about it. Listening to my father's tone, this time it won't be as simple as just scolding him. He will definitely be severely punished."
Wen Jin raised his eyebrows and said nothing.
"You don't believe it?" Xiao Yuchen sat upright.
Wen Jin nodded hesitantly, "Xiao Yunjie and Yu'er are facing such a dangerous situation... just because the third prince cried, even the emperor could have exposed it if it weren't for him.
"Tonight, he is just asking for favors and giving gifts to his father-in-law. Even if he has colluded with Shizheng... can it be more serious than the death of the emperor's two grandsons?"
Xiao Yuchen's eyes were heavy.
"Did you give your father the medicine to keep you from getting drunk?" Wen Jin suddenly asked.
Xiao Yuchen nodded, "What? Is it inappropriate?"
"Then the emperor won't be suspicious? If he is suspicious, he will not punish the third prince severely!" Wen Jin said.
Xiao Yuchen said: "Sitting in my father's position, there is no use in presenting facts or reasoning. He only believes in his own judgment.
"Besides, the medicine is added to the deer's blood. When he drinks the deer's blood, he will not be suspicious."
He said the last words very quietly.
Wen Jin got closer to hear clearly, deer blood? Drinking deer blood raw? Aren't you afraid of getting sick?
"You are a doctor, don't you know the usefulness of deer blood?" Xiao Yuchen said when he saw the strange look in her eyes.
Wen Jin said: "This folk remedy is not trustworthy, and drinking the blood of wild animals raw may lead to the risk of illness. Your Majesty, please do not try it easily."
Xiao Yuchen:......
Why would he try? Deer blood is aphrodisiac!
Does she doubt that he can do it? !
Xiao Yuchen wanted to catch her and come back to explain.
Then I thought, let her try it instead of explaining it! Prove yourself with your strength!
But seeing that Wen Jin had already entered the inner tent, he had no child's ambition, but he was afraid that he would offend her again if he acted too hastily.
Wen Jin was dreaming that night, thinking about how to make the third prince pay the price.
In the dream, she hired a murderer to beat the third prince severely and break both of his legs.
When she woke up, she felt that this dream was not satisfying enough.
While she was washing up, Fengchun said, "I'm going to break camp and go back today!"
"So urgent?"
"I heard that something happened last night. The Emperor ordered the third prince to be taken back for questioning."
After Fengchun finished speaking, Wen Jin was stunned.
Did you really capture the third prince?
It seems that the emperor really has zero tolerance for forming cliques.
After she finished washing, the order to break camp came out.
They either rode horses or took cars and made their way home in a mighty way.
But on the way back, she didn't see the third prince, and she didn't know if he was being escorted in a certain carriage.
After returning to Kyoto, the overwhelming and rigorous investigation of the third prince had just begun.
In those days, Xiao Yuchen went out early and came back late, so busy that his feet did not touch the floor.
Wen Jin didn't ask what he was busy with.
But news about the third prince still came one after another.
"The third prince and his family are all imprisoned in the house, and no one is allowed to come in or out."
"Several more senior officials have been investigated...it is said that they are all closely related to the third prince."
"The third prince and his family have been imprisoned!"
"The dragon robe was found in the third prince's house... The third prince may not be able to stand up this time."
All kinds of news are true or false.
Until this day, Xiao Yuchen didn't leave the house early in the morning. After practicing his kung fu, he sat at the house and played chess with Yu'er.
When Wen Jin brought her embroiderer to measure Yu'er's body and make new clothes, she saw that he was there.
The embroiderer finished measuring and was about to leave.
Xiao Yuchen gently held Wen Jin's wrist, "I have something to tell you."
Yu'er raised her eyes to look at them, and smiled, "I haven't finished the book my uncle asked me to read, so I went to study."
He stood up and walked away, winking at his father as he walked.
Xiao Yuchen gave his son a thumbs up.
In a blink of an eye, there were only two people left in the room.
"The third brother and his family are in jail."
"Really going to jail?" Wen Jin really didn't expect that when she was at the hunting ground, she was thinking that it was impossible to do this and she had to think of other ways.
"Dali Temple found out that the He family's salt and iron envoys were stealing from themselves and selling private salt to make huge profits. More than half of the money was given to the third prince."
Xiao Yuchen said, "The third prince used the money to make friends with his party members. Do you still remember the time when Yu'er was left in the palace?
"A young eunuch poisoned my father. That night, the third prince contacted the defenders of the capital... If Yu'er hadn't saved my father, the third prince might have led his troops to attack the palace!"
