"Miss Ling San, there are indeed surprises everywhere." Prince Gong said with a vague meaning, "However, since they did not hide their whereabouts, it tells us that they are not coming to our Prince Gong Mansion."
"I understand."
Prince Gong's eyes were filled with mystery. "Go and burn that yard."
The subordinate was stunned and said, "Yes."
This night.
Ordinary people have no idea what thrilling scenes took place in Kyoto.
But the next day, the whole capital was rumored to have heard that there was a fire in the courtyard where the Princess Gong lived in the Prince Gong Mansion the night before. Now it was dry and the fire was out. After the fire was put out, the Princess Gong, the second Miss Ling from the General's Mansion who was once the envy and pursuit of so many people, was reduced to ashes.
The General's Mansion is really always at the center of controversy.
Princess Gong was burned to death.
Miss Ling, who had just escaped death from the execution ground, was in trouble again.
Not many people knew about this, but some people who were relatives or friends in the court and served as officials, or who had some connections, had heard about it.
The emperor fell ill in the middle of the night after returning to the palace from the execution ground yesterday.
Although the imperial physician said that it was nothing serious, it was caused by being too busy with government affairs and overwork, and he would be fine after resting for a while. However, many people were wondering if it was because of Miss Ling San's anger at the execution ground.
You said that she made the emperor of a country angry and made him sick. When the emperor recovers, will she have any good consequences?
However, because Emperor Jing needed to take a break, he issued an edict allowing His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi to take charge of some state affairs during this period.
His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi has a close relationship with the General's Mansion. So, maybe Third Miss Ling is okay?
Because it's already early in the morning, and I haven't seen or heard that the Third Miss Ling from the General's Mansion has been questioned.
Of course, the general's father and son have now won the battles on the north and south borders, and hold most of the military power in Dajing. Even if something happens, the royal family will not easily touch Miss Ling.
The ordinary people had no idea that General Ling and His Royal Highness Prince Ning, who they thought were at the frontier, had actually quietly returned to the capital at night.
After receiving a family punishment, His Royal Highness Prince Ning is now confined in the ancestral hall, covered in blood, reflecting on his mistakes.
But the people inside the General's Mansion know about it.
When Ling Xueer went in, Aunt Lan had just finished arranging the general's mansion's internal affairs for the day.
Ling Xueer frowned, "Mother, my ninth brother's health has never been good. He was severely punished by the family, and now he is kneeling in the ancestral hall without eating or drinking. I'm afraid of him..."
"Don't interfere in this matter. You can't change anything if you interfere."
Ling Xueer knew that she couldn't change anything, because she had already met her father. But her father was in the study and didn't see her at all!
Not only did he not want to see her, he didn't want to see anyone.
But she didn't understand, "Ninth brother went to the southern border without permission. It's true that although he lifted the siege of the southern border, he was also wrong. But was it necessary to beat someone half to death? Didn't you see... How could father be so cruel? It's not like he didn't know about Ninth brother's health, but he could do that to him..."
"In other words, apart from this," she looked deeply at Aunt Lan, "what else did Ninth Brother do that made Father so angry that he could not be forgiven?"
After all, my ninth brother is not only the ninth son of the general's mansion, but also the Prince of Ning personally appointed by the emperor.
According to my father's character, he didn't care about my ninth brother's status as the King of Ning at all, and beat him as a father. You can imagine...
So he said, "Mom, why did Dad and my ninth brother come back so quietly? Logically speaking, no matter how fast I wrote to Dad, the best I could do is to send the letter to the border now. But Dad came back early last night..."
"Also, why did Third Sister ask someone to pack up and leave in the middle of the night last night?"
Aunt Lan said as usual, "There are many things we don't necessarily need to know. What we need to do is to manage this general's mansion well."
Of course Ling Xueer knew.
But she had too many questions in her heart!
She didn't think too much about Baili Feiyue's sudden departure from the General's Mansion. After all, after what happened at the execution ground, it was normal for her to take people out for a walk to relax.
But the ninth brother was beaten.
besides……
My eyes suddenly widened in a flash of lightning.
Could it be that the third sister...she...
Ling Xueer was frightened by her own thoughts and her expression changed completely.
At this moment, the important officials in the court and those knowledgeable dignitaries think differently from ordinary people.
The emperor suddenly fell ill, and the Prince of Qi took over the government.
It seemed to be a natural thing, however, only they knew how big the disturbance it caused in the government and the opposition.
You should know that Dajing has never appointed a crown prince.
Although His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi was in the limelight, many people were speculating in their hearts that the candidate was him. But speculation and proof are two completely different things!
Letting him take charge of government affairs means that this is a done deal!
Moreover, it is strange that the emperor said he was sick...
However, Baili Feiyue was no longer interested in any speculation, deep or shallow, whether in the imperial court or among ordinary people.
After gritted his teeth and sat up from the bed, he looked towards the window.
I saw a man in an elegant black robe, his chin resting on his hand, seemingly taking a nap.
Her clothes were slightly open, and her whole body exuded a kind of ambiguous and unrestrained charm.
Baili Feiyue got out of bed quietly and ran away like a guilty thief.
"My dear disciple, where are you going?"
The man who supported his chin with his hand slowly opened his long eyes, and his beautiful hazel eyes lazily fell on her.
Baili Feiyue stopped and waved his hand naturally, "Hahaha, Master, I thought I was dreaming. I was just about to come over and touch you to see if you were real."
The man put down the hand that was supporting his chin, and with this movement, his long brown curly hair fell down, making him look even more unruly and charming.
"Really?" His thin lips curled into a vivid yet dull smile.
Casual and unconcerned.
Baili Feiyue has seen people who look good even when they smile unfaithfully.
But, no matter how many times she saw it, she had never seen anyone who could smile so heartlessly and with such a deadly provocation.
So, it's very dangerous!
He walked forward in a very servile manner, picked up the purple clay teapot beside him and poured tea for him, "Master, are you thirsty? Come on, have some tea, have some tea."
His expression and actions were so servile and fawning.
The man glanced at her and said, "You are just a man. To avenge him, you are willing to go to jail and execution. You have great courage."
Baili Feiyue said quickly, "It's all because of Master's good teaching that I have nothing to fear."
"Well, I heard that you killed several foreign envoys on the execution ground and saved Da Jing's face. My disciple is really a loyal and kind-hearted child."
Baili Feiyue immediately retorted, "Master, they wanted to force me to death. I always remember what you taught me. If someone bullies me like this, of course I have to kill them!"
Blinking, "Besides, it will be more fun to kill them. Although those countries dare not act rashly for the time being, they will hold this grudge against Da Jing. It is only a matter of time before revenge breaks out. By then, all the countries in the world will be in chaos and blood will flow like a river. Master will definitely enjoy watching it."
