Chapter 523 Seriously Ill
In order to prevent Shen Wan from letting the cat out of the bag in front of the emperor one day, Xie Jingyu informed Shen Wan about this matter after returning.
Chen Wan looked at Xie Jingyu and asked, "Does this count as deceiving the emperor?"
Not only did this guy deceive the king, he also dragged her into the deception. He was extremely bold and presumptuous.
Xie Jingyu pinched Shen Wan's nose and said, "No one can verify what you dreamed about. Besides, who hasn't lied to their father?"
Shen Wan, “…”
Chen Wan could see that this guy was justified in everything he did, even deceiving the emperor.
However, Chen Wan also knew that this matter could only be hushed up. He had to catch the adulterers in pairs and the thieves and seize the stolen goods. Moreover, the identities of Queen Song and Prince Qing were not ordinary, so he had to be more cautious. They might even be responsible for the life of Prince Jin.
And her mother Lin Qingyin was being hunted down, which was definitely related to them.
Chen Wan couldn't wait to reveal their ugly true faces, hoping that Yaoguang County Master would wake up soon.
It was already time for dinner, and the little maid brought in the food. Shen Wan and Xie Jingyu sat down to eat together.
Just as he picked up the ivory chopsticks, there was a knock on the window outside.
"Come in."
With the window creaking, Chen An jumped into the house through the window.
To prevent anyone from eavesdropping, Yinchuan went out to guard the door.
When Chen An came over, Shen Wan asked, "Is Yaoguang County Master awake?"
Although the Prince of Song had searched Zhao Yuanzheng's mansion twice, the Yaoguang County Master was crucial to whether Queen Song could be overthrown. Shen Wan and Xie Jingyu did not dare to take it lightly, so they sent several secret guards to guard the mansion in order to arouse Prince Qing's suspicion and send people to investigate secretly and take away the Yaoguang County Master.
Chen An suddenly came back, and Shen Wanxin was overjoyed, hoping that the Yaoguang County Master had woken up.
Chen An shook his head. "Princess Yaoguang is still unconscious. Dean Zhao and Young Master Zhao don't know when she will wake up..."
The excitement in Shen Wan's eyes dimmed, and Xie Jingyu asked, "What are you doing back?"
Chen An replied, "Prince Qing suddenly became seriously ill and asked Dean Zhao to come to his residence to treat him. Dean Zhao found this a bit strange, so I thought it would be best to inform the prince."
Xie Jingyu asked, "Can you explain why it's so strange, Zhao Yuanzheng?"
Chen Ande said, "Two days ago, Imperial Physician Lin went to check the pulse of Prince Qing. His condition hadn't improved, but it hadn't gotten any worse either. It had remained the same, and it had gotten worse for no reason. That's when Dean Zhao found it strange..."
Shen Wan also found it strange. In his previous life, at this time, Prince Qing said he was fine, but he was fine. How could his condition suddenly worsen?
Xie Jingyu said, "It seems that Prince Qing wants to use his son to do something..."
Shen Wan, “…???”
Chen Wan also felt that Prince Qing was going to cause trouble.
But what can Prince Qing do with his son?
Shen Wan couldn't figure it out, so Xie Jingyu picked up a piece of fish and put it in her bowl, "You'll know soon."
Chen Wan looked at the fish in her bowl. This guy loved to pick fish for her. They said eating fish was good for the brain...
Shen Wan frowned and looked at Xie Jingyu. Xie Jingyu asked, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
There was a dangerous glint in Shen Wan's eyes, "Do you think I'm stupid and want me to eat more fish to improve my brain?"
Xie Jingyu, “…”
"Is what my husband did so obvious?" Xie Jingyu asked.
Shen Wanmiao glared.
Xie Jingyu was amused by Shen Wan, “Even if eating fish can nourish your brain, it’s too late to eat it now.”
Chen Wan was furious, with flames flashing in her eyes, "You really do despise me..."
Xie Jingyu pinched his face and said, "This brain is enough, but the body is a little weak, and I need more training."
Under Shen Wan's glare, Xie Jingyu silently withdrew his hand and continued to pick up food for Shen Wan.
Shanhu Yinchuan was standing outside the bead curtain. When they heard what the Crown Prince and his wife said, they covered their mouths and laughed secretly.
In terms of intelligence, no one from the noble families in Kyoto can compare with the Crown Prince, but the only ones who can make such a smart Crown Prince lose face are the Crown Princess. And for the sake of the Crown Princess, the Emperor and Shen Ji dare not disrespect her.
Even if the Emperor made the Crown Prince suffer a little, he would secretly retaliate. The Crown Prince's wife made him so angry that he vomited blood twice, but the Crown Prince just let it go.
However, although the Crown Prince's Concubine is not as smart as the Crown Prince, she is blessed with great fortune. Anyone who becomes an enemy of the Crown Prince's Concubine will not have a good ending.
Chen Wan and Xie Jingyu continued to eat. They did not follow the rule of not talking while eating or sleeping, and they talked and laughed.
Shen Wan was impatient and wanted to know what Prince Qing was going to do, but she asked several times and Xie Jingyu didn't tell her. However, the next day, Shen Wan knew it when she woke up in the morning.
Chen Wan didn't fall asleep until the latter half of the night, and slept until noon. When he woke up and sat on the bed and stretched, Shanhu came in and said, "Prince Qing wants to take the Crown Prince away from the capital and travel around the world..."
Chen Wan frowned, "Can Prince Qing still run around in that state?"
Shanhu said, "Prince Qing is seriously ill this time, and Dean Zhao isn't sure he can cure him. Because of his illness, Prince Qing has rarely left the house in recent years, let alone the capital. He wants to travel around. Prince Qing is in court this morning, so he asked the Emperor to allow him to accompany the Prince on a tour to experience the scenery and customs of various places in Ning Dynasty..."
A sneer appeared in Shen Wan’s eyes.
Now she was basically certain that Queen Song and Prince Qing were having an affair.
Prince Qing has never left the capital for his fiefdom for so many years because the Crown Prince of Qing is ill and needs to stay in Kyoto so that he can find a royal physician to treat him.
Prince Qing had only one son, the Crown Prince, who was so weak that he might die at any time. In addition, Prince Qing held an unprofitable position in the court and did not show off, so the Emperor let him stay in Kyoto.
As a result, one of Prince Qing's sons was raised by the Emperor, and the other was raised in Prince Jingbei's Mansion.
The Crown Prince is not indispensable to him.
Chen Wan suspected that Prince Qing's illness was caused by Prince Qing in order to have an excuse to stay in Kyoto. Otherwise, why had it not improved or worsened over the years, and he just couldn't go out, just like the princess who was given a muscle softening powder.
Now he wants to take the prince out of Beijing for a trip. It is obvious that he is afraid and is looking for an excuse to escape.
Princess Yaoguang must have evidence that can bring down Queen Song and Prince Qing. Prince Qing is afraid that if Princess Yaoguang is not dead and is really rescued, the knife hanging over their heads may fall one day.
First, he would take advantage of the fact that the prince left the capital and hid for a few days. If there was no news from Lady Yaoguang, it meant that she could not be saved, and he could rest easy. But if Lady Yaoguang woke up, he would be away from the capital. The Ning Dynasty was so big that it would be difficult for Prince Qing to find a place to hide, and the emperor would find it difficult to find him.
Prince Qing is far more sinister and cold-blooded than Chen Wan imagined.
Prince Qing can escape, but Queen Song and Xiao Yun cannot.
Xiao Yun was also unwilling to accept this, so he handed over the position of crown prince to Xiao Huaijin.
Just based on Prince Qing's action, Chen Wan felt that he treated Queen Song the same way. She didn't know which eye Queen Song was blind in to fall in love with Prince Qing.
Shen Wan asked, "Did the emperor agree?"
Coral nodded.
The emperor agreed.
For the sake of his son, Prince Qing gave up his official duties and was willing to travel around the world with his son. With such deep affection between father and son, how could the emperor not agree?
