The emperor dismissed the others.
Eunuch Gao turned pale and continued tremblingly: "Princess Huai said that the poison on the assassin who kidnapped her was the same poison that Gao Chenggong used..."
The emperor's face darkened.
The silence in the dormitory was breathless.
There were even beads of sweat on Gao Xing's forehead...
After a long time, the emperor clicked his tongue and said, "The matter of high success... I remember that it was investigated in the palace and did not alert the prince.
"How did Xiao Yuchen and Princess Huai know what kind of poison he used?"
The emperor's eyes narrowed, and a light flashed in his old eyes.
Eunuch Gao kowtowed and said in a trembling voice: "According to the message from the young eunuch, the prince has a talent in this area."
There is no more detailed explanation.
If the emperor wanted to find out clearly, he had no choice but to summon Prince Huai and his wife.
However, the emperor has not ordered the summons for a long time.
"Yu'er has this talent..."
The emperor studied these words carefully.
"It was the Crown Prince who discovered the poison hidden in Gao Chenggong's body that day!
"And it was the young prince who stopped him from committing suicide by taking poison..."
Gao Xing clearly remembers what happened that day... The godson he recognized had such rebellious thoughts.
If he hadn't served the emperor since he was a child, and the emperor knew him well and trusted him...he wouldn't be dead even if he had a hundred lives!
Recalling that day, Gao Xing was still covered in cold sweat and shuddering.
The emperor frowned, "It's the New Year, and Yu'er is only six years old... That's all. I'll summon King Huai and his wife to see you."
…
Wen Jin was awakened by Xiao Yuchen.
She was so sleepy that her eyelids were twitching.
But Xiao Yuchen, who had been standing outside the carriage for a whole night without a glance, was in high spirits.
There was not a trace of fatigue on his body... He was truly worthy of being a man who could attack thousands of miles in one night and defeat the enemy army!
Compared with him, Wen Jin looked much more embarrassed.
Xiao Yuchen asked the palace people to prepare a sedan for her.
Wen Jin sat in the sedan. The shaking of the sedan... actually had a hypnotic effect.
She felt like she had just closed her eyes...
"Princess pregnant? Princess?"
Eunuch Gao and a little palace maid stood guard outside the sedan chair.
The palace maid also held a set of clothes in her hand.
Wen Jin was a little confused, where was Xiao Yuchen?
Eunuch Gao stood outside the sedan and said, "The prince has been summoned by the emperor to have an audience."
"I'm sorry, I'll just..."
"Princess, don't panic. The emperor learned about what happened last night and has already rewarded the princess with auspicious clothes. Originally, she was planning to reward her at the palace on New Year's Eve.
"Now I'm rewarded in advance. The palace maid will wait for the princess to change her clothes. After the princess changes her clothes, she will go to the audience again."
Wen Jin quickly stood up and got out of the sedan chair to thank him.
She didn't necessarily want the emperor to see her in embarrassment.
After all, being slovenly and unkempt is a sign of disgrace before the emperor.
As long as the emperor knows about it, the purpose will be achieved.
Wen Jin followed the palace maid to the side hall to change clothes.
After she was dressed, she waited outside the palace, waiting for the emperor to announce her entrance...
But I heard the sound of a dispute between father and son coming from the palace!
Wen Jin's scalp tightened... They had waited all night, not just to quarrel with the emperor!
No matter how angry Xiao Yuchen is, he can't touch the emperor's evil right now? !
Wen Jin frowned and listened.
"Princess Xuanhuai enters the palace——"
The eunuch at the door sang loudly into her ears.
It almost deafened her ears!
Wen Jin bowed and entered the hall. She took a peek... Sure enough!
Both the emperor and Xiao Yuchen were a little red in the face...Did the father and son quarrel again?
When is it okay to make noise? Does it have to be now?
"Meet you, my wife..."
"no!"
The emperor interrupted her angrily, "Princess Huai was almost assassinated in Kyoto and should be dealt with seriously! I have promised you that I will instruct the Ministry of Punishment to keep a close eye on this matter!
"Princess Huai, aren't you just standing here properly? What else do you want from me?"
Wen Jin was startled and looked at Xiao Yuchen suspiciously.
How did he make the emperor so angry?
Xiao Yuchen turned back to look at her and shrugged helplessly, "I didn't say anything, who knows..."
"What are you muttering about?!" the emperor scolded, "Is this what you are talking about so early in the morning? If you have nothing else to do, just go back home and stay well!"
"Since someone wants to murder Princess Huai... then Princess Huai should not run away recently!
"Just in time, the activities in Furong Garden are over! Just have a good rest at home! Kneel down and pay your respects!"
Wen Jin met the Saint, but he hadn't said a word yet... His freedom to go out was gone?
Do you have to kneel down now?
Then she waited all night at the palace gate last night. Didn't she feel lonely?
"Did your father misunderstand something? Your Majesty's request for a strict investigation into this case is definitely not for the sake of my daughter-in-law!"
"Not for you? Ha!" The emperor sneered.
"Although my daughter-in-law has hosted the Furong Garden Competition, she plans to use all the profits from the competition to serve the court and share the worries of my father..."
The emperor's eyes lit up slightly, "Uh, you mean...all of them?"
"Despite this, I am still just a little girl! Why are people so impatient that they can't even celebrate the New Year! Do they have to take the life of my daughter-in-law before the Chinese New Year?!"
The emperor frowned, his expression no longer repulsive, but nodded.
But he looked at Xiao Yuchen with disgust and said, "Humph!"
Wen Jin said hurriedly: "Your Majesty is not ignorant of the importance. Just because of my daughter-in-law, I beg the Emperor to pay special attention to this matter! Your Majesty is doing this because you are concerned about your father!"
"Oh, what you say is better than what Furong Yuan sings!"
"Without the favor and favor of my father, how could the prince be today? The prince is favored by his father, so he naturally respects and cares for him.
"Your Majesty's request for strict investigation and strict handling of this matter is definitely not for the sake of my wife. It is really for the sake of my father and the country of my father!"
When the emperor heard this, his eyes slowed down slightly.
Wen Jin took Xiao Yuchen and knelt down together, "If the prince says anything to anger my father, I beg my father for the sake of chaos if he cares...not to argue with his son and daughter-in-law."
The emperor chuckled and softened his tone a lot, "I know your filial piety. But these two things are just coincidences!"
"If it's just a coincidence, why does it have to be now? When the foreign envoys come and the Furong Garden Competition is a great success?" Wen Jin asked in return.
The emperor was silent for a moment, "...Maybe Yu'er made a mistake. He is just a child after all!"
"As long as the safety of my father is threatened, I would rather believe that it exists than that it does not exist.
"This is Kyoto, at the feet of the emperor. How can we allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the bed!" As Wen Jin spoke, his eyes turned red, tears filled his eyelashes, and he was sincere.
The emperor was stunned and couldn't help but feel a little moved.
Wen Jin continued his efforts, "The Furong Garden Competition was a great success. My wife has always hoped to use this to establish a girls' school so that women all over the world can serve their father! But at this time, the assassination of my daughter-in-law... It is not my daughter-in-law who wants to kill. One person! Instead, he wants to kill the ambition of my daughter-in-law and all the women in the world to serve my father!"
The emperor narrowed his eyes, "It's just a replacement at this time, I haven't agreed yet..."
"But the envoys from the State of Song and the envoys from the State of Qi have asked my daughter-in-law about the hosting, planning, and subsequent arrangements of this competition! The envoys from the Three Kingdoms have seen that this matter will be like a spark that starts a prairie fire and will have an extraordinary impact. Power!" Wen Jin said.
The emperor frowned, "Have you already told them?"
"My daughter-in-law did not dare to do so without my father's permission. My daughter-in-law told them that the matter had to go through Honglu Temple. The attack on my daughter-in-law, the secret passage in the post house, and the kidnappers from the other courtyard in the west of the city...are all connected...Father Your Majesty, the person behind this is so evil that he is planning to be the leader of my army!"
The emperor narrowed his eyes, "The assassin is now in prison in the Ministry of Justice?
"Gao Xing and Xiao Yuchen are getting ready... I want to leave the palace incognito! Go to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment!"
