"Come here!" Mo Ling raised his hand and ordered, "Young Master Chu and below are guilty of this. He has no manners and is yelling in the palace. Drag him down and beat him twenty times with a cane and drive him out of the palace!"
Chu Yuxiao's face turned pale. She watched the guards step forward and backed away desperately: "Don't come over here! Don't come over here...let me go! Let me go!"
Qi Jin watched him with cold eyes struggling desperately under the restraints of the guards, looking embarrassed and afraid of death, and sneered mercilessly: "I thought you had so much backbone, but you turned out to be a cowardly waste... Forget it, throw him away. Get out."
After saying that, he was about to leave when he suddenly noticed a scorching gaze cast on him.
Qi Jin turned his eyes carelessly, and when he met Chu Yunjiao's nymphomaniac eyes, his peach blossom eyes suddenly narrowed.
"What are you looking at, concubine?" Qi Jin put away the folding fan and smiled gracefully, like a noble prince walking out of a painting, "I heard that the reason why concubine became concubine is because she seduces people. You have a certain skill. Did you realize that it is not easy to be the concubine of the King of War, and you want to seduce me instead?"
Chu Yunjiao's face turned pale, with a look of humiliation on his face: "Young master, don't talk nonsense!"
Qi Jin clicked his tongue, too lazy to deal with an insignificant character, and walked calmly towards Jinlin Courtyard. When he walked outside the courtyard gate, he raised his eyes and saw Chang Qing guarding outside the courtyard. Qi Jin paused slightly.
"Changqing." He waved to Changqing, "Long time no see."
Changqing walked up to him and saluted respectfully: "I have met the prince."
Qi Jin, the eldest son of the Chu Kingdom's Zhongyihou Mansion, and the only son of the Xunyang Princess's Mansion, was the proud son of heaven who grew up doted on by the Zhongyihou and the eldest princess.
Not only is she handsome in appearance, her peach blossom eyes are pretty and twinkling, but her temperament is also charming and charming.
It is said that he is a frequent visitor to the brothel, and those who pay for it will fight to death, which shows how popular it is.
Over the years, he has been staying at the border with Marquis Zhongyi and the eldest princess. He comes back every year for ten days and a half, and goes back without even recognizing anyone.
He had just returned from the border this time, so many people in Beijing had not seen him yet.
"Where is the prince?"
Changqing replied: "Your Majesty is in the study. Please come down with Mr. Qi."
Qi Jin nodded, walked through the corridor, and asked as he walked: "Is it true that the prince wants to divorce his wife?"
Chang Qing was in a dilemma: "I don't know what to say."
It is true that he wanted to divorce his wife, but it is also true that he did not divorce his wife.
Qi Jin thought thoughtfully: "Then is it true that the prince was beaten with a cane for hooking up with the concubine of the Chu family?"
Changqing was still confused: "It's not convenient for me to say."
The punishment of the rod is real, but hooking up with the concubine of the Chu family... well, it is barely real.
"You have to tell." Qi Jin frowned, "I want to know whether the prince and the princess really turned against each other, or if there is some other secret, so that I can deal with the Chu family freely."
He used "deal with" rather than "deal with". This shows that the Chu family is really not worth mentioning in his eyes.
"The Chu family does not represent the princess." After Changqing said this, he raised his hand and knocked on the door lightly, and heard a voice coming from inside: "Come in."
Changqing pushed open the door, took a step back and bowed: "Master Qi, please."
Qi Jin stepped into the study room. As the door closed, he turned his head and saw the man standing in front of the window. He lowered his eyes slightly and said, "Your Majesty."
Rong Cang turned his head and said in an indifferent tone: "I have something for you to do."
Qi Jin was silent for a moment, then looked up and saw that his face was indeed a little pale, as if he had not recovered from a serious illness. He couldn't help but frown: "Is the prince really injured? The princess is really cruel..."
Rong Cang said: "I don't blame her."
Qi Jin then shut up. It was inconvenient for others to interfere in the affairs between the couple.
"What does the prince want me to do? Clean up the Chu family?"
Rong Cang said calmly: "I have been poisoned by poison."
What?
Qi Jin took a moment to react, and his expression suddenly changed: "Poison?"
"Um."
"When did this happen? Who did it?" Qi Jin Taohua's eyes were full of anger, "What does the other party want to do?"
"We don't know yet." Rong Cang turned to look out the window, "It should have been done when I was young, and I didn't notice anything unusual until recently."
Qi Jin was shocked and could hardly believe it: "It took ten years to poison him? Is this person doing it deliberately, or..."
"This kind of poison lasts for a long time. You don't feel anything when you are young. When you grow up, it will attack occasionally. It feels like there are bug bites in your organs. Once it happens more than once, you will have an indescribable feeling." Rong Cang frowned, but his voice was He was calm and powerful, "I couldn't control my emotions, I wanted to destroy everything in front of me, my chest felt like it was going to explode... I was worried about hurting the princess, so I wanted to write a letter of divorce to let her leave the palace."
Qi Jin understood: "So the prince and the princess did not turn against each other?"
Rong Cang hesitated for a moment: "Probably not."
He felt that there was no rebellion, but he was not sure what Chu Yunfei thought.
Qi Jin was silent, with a cold look on his face: "The prince has led the army for many years, and has an aloof temperament. He cannot be threatened by ordinary means. So when he planted the poison, that person didn't understand the prince?"
Rong Cang stood with his hands behind his back. Even though his injuries made his face pale, he still looked as cold and calm as Yue Zhiyuan Ting.
"I used such vicious methods when I was young..." Qi Jin thought hard and couldn't figure out who would attack a teenage boy. "Could it be a concubine or a prince?"
All the princes in the court are candidates who may succeed to the throne in the future. On the surface, they are brothers and sisters, and everything is peaceful. In private, they plot against each other and kill each other.
It is not unusual for Rong Cang to be poisoned in advance.
But the sinister part of this matter is that poisonous poisons are different from ordinary people's poisons. Poisonous poisons have always been regarded as sinister and evil arts, and ordinary people have no access to them.
And after so many years, it is not easy to find the source.
Rong Cang said calmly: "You don't need to investigate the poison issue for the time being. Since you are back from the border, you will stay in the capital for a while."
"Yes." Qi Jin nodded, then worried, "Then the prince still plans to divorce the princess?"
A divorce letter is very harmful to a woman, but if she does not divorce, it will inevitably hurt her when the poison becomes severe in the future.
So there is a dilemma.
Rong Cang's voice was low: "She doesn't agree."
Qi Jin was surprised: "Don't agree?"
He had never heard of a woman who had room to refuse when she was divorced, especially a woman with no family background like Chu Yunfei.
If the prince wants to divorce her, isn't it just a matter of words?
The princess is really impressive...
Qi Jin quickly asked: "What does the prince want me to do?"
"Disturbing the peace of the capital." Rong Cang said calmly, "It is inconvenient for me to go out while I am recovering from my injuries, but someone will definitely take the opportunity to deal with the princess. I hope you can protect her."
Then he added: "Protect her quietly and don't ruin her reputation."
Qi Jin: "..."
