It is true that Yu Youtang, the leader of the Eastern Palace, was the most trusted confidant of Prince Zheng Zheng.
However, the reason why Yu Youtang was able to go to Zheng Zheng was because of his father's order.
Although everyone knows that being an official in the East Palace requires the approval of his father, the situation of Yu Youtang is very special.
This person is indeed extraordinary, he can move between the father and the prince with ease.
In the eyes of the father, Yu Youtang is his own.
As far as the prince is concerned, Yu Youtang is from the East Palace.
Yu Youtang is truly a man of both sides, and has won the trust of his father and the prince.
If she didn't take the opportunity to destroy such a person, would she keep him to deal with her?
Du Fengju noticed the coldness in her tone, which was a murderous intention not just because the other party was the emperor or the prince's confidant...
He couldn't help but ask: "Your Highness, what is wrong with this person...?"
He carefully recalled the previous scene when His Highness saw Yu Youtang, and found nothing unusual.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince prides himself on caring for his younger brother and younger sister. I think he will see His Highness every once in a while, so there will be many opportunities for His Highness to see Yu Youtang.
In this case, why did His Highness insist on attacking Yu Youtang right here in Wuge?
Moreover, His Highness made this decision so hastily. He only exchanged news with him and let Wei Yan take action without hesitation.
Wei Yan has been following him, and the atmosphere at the edge of the martial arts field is so lively, and there are so many soldiers present, that it just covers Wei Yan's breath.
Wei Yan was released from the imperial prison, and she could still make Yu Youtang lose control briefly through covert means.
Even so, doing such a thing under Zhu Yi's nose is not foolproof.
Even if it was a risk, His Highness still did it.
It can be seen that in the mind of His Highness, seriously injuring Yu Youtang is an extremely urgent matter and must be carried out here in Wuge.
why is that?
Zheng Ji met his eyes and wanted to say something, but just shook his head.
What did she say?
The person who was ordered to lead the search for Fengju in his previous life was Yu Youtang!
She had no intention of dealing with Yu Youtang so early, but who knew that Zhu Yi happened to be here at Wuge?
It would be a shame if she didn't seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
As the deputy general of Fengchen Guard, Zhu Yi's whereabouts were of course not accessible to ordinary people. Even Zheng Ji did not know that he would appear in the martial arts pavilion.
However, Wei Yan was aware of Zhu Yi's presence and gave her a secret signal.
Wei Yan was no less eager to kill Zhu Yi than she was. After all, it was Zhu Yi who slapped Fengju in the Zichen Palace.
However, Wei Yan's restraint of murderous intentions was much better than hers.
He always remembered what she said, it was not the time to kill Zhu Yi yet.
Indeed, it is indeed not the time to kill Zhu Yi in Wuge right now, but it is the time to seriously injure Yu Youtang.
She originally just wanted to use Zhu Yi's hand to seriously injure Yu Youtang, but she never thought that Zhu Yi did much better than she expected and actually chopped off one of Yu Youtang's arms!
What an unexpected surprise!
The moment Yu Youtang raised his knife to slash at Zheng Zheng, it meant that this person was going to be abandoned. But Zhu Yi's move meant that there was no room for maneuver on the matter of being abandoned.
If she didn't know very well what kind of person Zhu Yi was, Zheng Ji would have doubted whether Zhu Yi was here to help her.
Yu Youtang lost his arm, so...he would never be able to obtain that official position like he did in his previous life!
"Your Highness, but Yu Youtang... what does it have to do with?" Du Fengju looked at Zheng Ji's expression and asked questions.
There must be something involved with Yu Youtang, otherwise, His Highness would not be so anxious.
Wei Yan would not take such a risk.
Even if Wei Yan can avoid Zhu Yi's eyes and ears and attack Yu Youtang, Fengchen Guards will definitely find clues when they investigate afterwards!
Zheng Ji thought for a while and decided to tell the truth: "Fengju, do you know..."
She had just finished speaking when hurried footsteps suddenly sounded outside the door.
The next moment, Qin Zhou's voice rang out: "Your Highness, Feng Chenwei respectfully welcomes the prince back to the palace. The emperor has an order for you to accompany him."
It turned out that it was the father's will that had arrived.
Zheng Ji subconsciously looked at Du Fengju, but saw the other person looking over at him, with deep thoughts in each other's eyes.
There is no time to say what I just planned to say.
"Your Highness, your injury..." Du Fengju said worriedly. It didn't take much time to get from the martial arts pavilion to the palace, but... he would still be worried.
Zheng Ji shook his head: "It doesn't matter. I just need to rest for three or two days."
She also has to participate in the selection competition of the martial arts pavilion. Even if she blocks the sword for Zheng Zheng, she will not be as desperate as she was for her father.
This bit of shock injury was nothing to her.
Seeing that he still looked worried, Zheng Ji said again: "No need to worry, this palace has not done anything."
Therefore, my father must not be able to find out anything.
Du Fengju nodded and softened his tone: "I know, and I will wait until His Highness returns safely." Z.br>
He knew that things would not be that simple. The confrontation in the palace and the follow-up of the matter were what really mattered, and the confrontation was also the most intense.
But His Highness didn't want him to worry, and he also didn't want His Highness to worry.
~~~
Emperor Yongning thought with his eyebrows that such an accident would occur in a good martial arts selection competition.
Dong Gongzuo, who was supposed to be protecting the prince, actually stabbed the prince with a knife. This was really shocking.
After confirming that Zheng Zheng was fine, the emperor was interested in making further inquiries.
"Father, that's what happened. The situation was so sudden, I... don't know what happened." Zheng Zheng lowered his head and said in a sad tone.
He told what happened in the martial arts pavilion exactly as it was, without adding anything or subtracting anything.
There were so many ancestral monks and soldiers watching in the martial arts pavilion, so there was no need for him to say anything.
My father will naturally send people to investigate the rest.
Presumably, his father felt the same as him and wanted to find out what was going on as soon as possible.
After saying these words, he raised his eyes and looked at Zheng Ji, his tone full of gratitude: "Father, thanks to Chang Ding this time. If she hadn't blocked him in time, I might have..."
At this point, he was choked with sobs, but he continued: "Speaking of which, Chang Ding is really the lucky star of our royal family. The last time my father was assassinated, Chang Ding fought to the death to protect him. This time, my son and minister suffered an unexpected incident. Fortunately, there are Long and fixed at the side."
As soon as these words were said, there was silence in Zichen Hall, and everyone turned their attention to Zheng Ji standing in the hall.
Yes, when the emperor and the prince were assassinated twice, His Highness Chang Ding was beside them. What's even more coincidental is that His Highness Chang Ding happened to save them.
Really, is it such a coincidence?
"Second update!"
