Chapter 241 Mr. Rong started to panic
That night, Ye Jinghua secretly took action against his elder brother and had someone tamper with Ye Jingtian's food at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.
The eldest brother returned to the Eastern Palace and fell ill. He sent someone to the Imperial Hospital to ask for a doctor, but the hospital was empty as Ye Jinghua had transferred everyone away.
In his anxiety, he met Rong Bing, who had just resigned and was about to leave the palace. However, no matter how the servant begged on his knees, Rong Bing never set foot in the East Palace.
That night, Ye Jingtian almost didn't survive. It was only when Ling An came back from a mission in the middle of the night that he took Ye Jingtian back to Xuantian Pavilion for treatment. He then secretly sent him back to the palace the next day.
This matter was originally kept secret from him, but Ling An was simple-minded and was eventually tricked into confessing something by him.
Nan Xuan sighed softly beside his ear: "Why does this little girl have to be from the Rong family?"
Jingzhen didn't say anything. He held a bamboo whistle in his hand, which was placed by the car window. He used so much force in his hand that his knuckles turned white.
Since Rong Bing, no one from the Rong family has served in the palace.
There are rumors that the Rong family's Yaoxian Pavilion can stand so firmly in the capital because the Rong family has joined forces with the powerful general Zhao Jing.
However, Zhao Jing was the leader who opposed Ye Jingtian being made the crown prince. He believed that the position should be given to the most capable person.
…
In the Rong family carriage in front, Rong Bing also looked dazed.
He had just gotten out of the car with Baoya and Ronghe. When he saw Jingzhen at first glance, he was really surprised and almost panicked.
There was a shadow of the current crown prince between Jingzhen's eyebrows and eyes, and he thought it was that child.
If he didn't know that his master, Nan Xuan, was the owner of the Hongdouxuan shop in Ping'an Town, he would probably have thought that Jingzhen was the fifth prince who had been living away from home.
He thought about it and shook his head. The fifth prince was taken away by a mysterious man in the martial arts world when he was eight years old and there has been no news of him since then.
As early as when Prince Heshun was still the eldest prince, people were sent everywhere to look for him, and they were still looking until recently, but they have found nothing.
I guess he is no longer in this world.
Rong Bing sighed, that child was also a pitiful person.
He had his mother killed at birth and was disliked by the emperor, who never cared about him. Unlike his elder brother Ye Jingtian who was favored, the emperor basically left him to fend for himself.
"Grandfather."
A tender and soft voice rang in my ears, and the hem of my clothes was tugged gently.
When Rong Bing came to his senses, he saw Xiao Baoya sitting opposite him blinking her clear eyes and looking at him with a worried look on her face.
"Baoya, what's wrong?" He immediately softened his voice.
Baoya shook her head: "I'm fine. Is Grandfather angry with Master?"
Rong Bing smiled and rubbed her head: "No, Grandfather doesn't bother with those vulgar people in the market."
"Well, Grandfather is a generous man."
The little girl nodded, seeming to be a little happier. "I will teach Master a lesson when I get back. His temper demands a lesson."
At the end, he added: "Brother Xiaojing said so."
Rong Bing had a decent impression of Jingzhen. He smiled and agreed with a few words, which put Baoya at ease.
The carriage quickly drove out of Cangchenzhou and arrived at the neighboring Huzhou.
It was already evening, so Rong Bing asked Yan Fei to find an inn in Lingshui Town to rest, and set off for Kuizhou early the next morning. After passing Kuizhou, they would reach the capital.
As night fell, street vendors lit up with lanterns.
The streets are bustling with people coming and going and traffic.
Nan Xuan in the carriage kept lifting the curtain to look outside.
Jingzhen felt strange: "What are you looking at?"
Nan Xuan: "Let me see if that fat lady who tricked you last time is still here."
Jing Zhen: ...
This matter cannot be resolved.
It was only forty taels of silver, didn’t I get it back in the end?
However, Nan Xuan failed to find the fat lady, and the Rong family's carriage stopped in front.
He then asked the driver in front to stop the carriage and get off with Jingzhen.
Baoya, Ronghe and Rongbing got out of the car. Rongbing went in first to ask for the room. Baoya stood at the door, waiting for them, and Ronghe stood beside them to accompany them.
"Brother Xiaojing, are you guys staying here too?" Baoya asked.
Jingzhen nodded, glanced at the bustling street outside, and suddenly said, "Want to go shopping together?"
Baoya's eyes suddenly lit up, and she pursed her thin pink lips, her mouth corners curved: "Okay!"
"Cough!" Rong He next to him couldn't help but cough.
Baoya then remembered that there was also her brother Rong!
Suddenly, her face turned red with embarrassment: "Then...Brother Rong, come with us?"
Rong He saw that she looked a little embarrassed and said helplessly: "Go. But you have to say hello to grandpa first."
Bao Ya knew this of course. She and Jing Zhen agreed to meet at the door of the inn later, and then she followed Rong He upstairs to find Rong Bing.
Jingzhen and Nanxuan asked for two rooms upstairs, and asked for a room downstairs for the coachman, and then went upstairs to pack their things.
A moment later, the four met at the door of the inn.
Rong He looked at Nan Xuan who was standing next to Jing Zhen, a little puzzled: "Why are you here too?"
"Why can't I come?" Nan Xuan narrowed his eyes.
Rong He said bluntly: "Because we are all children, and you are the adult."
Nan Xuan:......
It hurts.
"Is it okay if my mental age is about the same as yours?"
"What is mental age?"
Looking at Rong He's silly face, Nan Xuan waved his hand and gave up explaining.
Lingshui Town was very lively. Jingzhen was walking in front of the crowd, holding Baoya's hand.
Nan Xuan acted like a bodyguard, dragging Rong He along with him and following behind the two of them.
At this time, the two stopped in front of a stall selling candied haws.
Baoya picked two candied haws and gave one to Jingzhen. Jingzhen took it with a smile on his face and paid for it.
The big, red hawthorns are wrapped in a layer of bright orange rock sugar and sprinkled with white sesame seeds. Just looking at them makes people drool.
Baoya ate them one by one, feeling very satisfied.
At this moment, she looked up and caught sight of a shop behind the candied haws stall, and her eyes suddenly widened.
"Hey, there's also Green Bean Pavilion?!"
Seeing her surprised look, Jing Zhen was not moved at all, but looked at her lovingly with his pair of black eyes.
Then Baoya said, "Could it be that the mung bean cakes made in this shop are particularly delicious?"
"Go in and take a look?" Jing Zhen raised his eyebrows.
"Yeah!" The little girl responded and ran into the shop first, followed closely by Jingzhen.
Rong He, who was following behind the two of them, was holding a string of candied haws in his hand and was calling out to Nan Xuan, who was also holding a string of candied haws behind him.
"Oh, hurry up! They're going in!"
"I'm coming," Nan Xuan replied lazily, biting a candied haws. "He can't run away, so why are you so anxious?"
Rong He was too lazy to argue with him and just said, "We just agreed that I will buy you candied haws and you will listen to me in everything!"
Nan Xuan took another bite of the candied haws: "I'm listening, aren't I?"
