Chapter 60: Fetching Water with a Basket



Chapter 60: Fetching Water with a Bamboo Basket

[Master, it is buried under the largest tree on the east side of Yu Garden.]

Upon hearing this, Feng Tianxing pulled Yun Ranqing and ran towards Yu Garden.

"Sister Feng, where are we going? Is my mother okay?" Yun Ranqing was about to kneel down and beg for mercy when she was pulled out by Feng Tianxing.

Feng Tianxing certainly didn't answer him and pulled her out.

But her short legs made it difficult to run.

Yun Ranqing held her and squatted in front of her.

Feng Tianxing was not polite and lay on his back.

Feng Tianxing pointed the way.

But the palace was very big and Yun Ranqing ran out of breath before being asked to stop by Feng Tianxing.

Yun Ranqing took a look and saw that this was a relatively remote place in Yu Garden.

Feng Tianxing pulled him inside again and came to a big tree.

The two children saw a yellow tabby cat digging the ground with its front paws.

When Yun Ranqing saw it, he grabbed Feng Tianxing and was about to leave.

"Sister Feng, let's go, that cat is pooping there, it must be very smelly."

But Feng Tianxing did not move, instead she pulled him towards the cat that was digging the ground diligently.

When the cat saw someone coming, it was scared and ran away, but it was reluctant to leave.

Standing not far away, it looked at the two humans who were trying to steal its things and made a "meow" sound.

[Haha, a wild cat can smell the smell of good things.]

Feng Tianxing picked up a branch and started digging in the place where the wild cat had just dug.

Seeing Feng Tianxing doing this, Yun Ranqing followed suit.

Because he knew that sister Feng must have her own purpose in doing

this. The two little brats used branches to dig laboriously.

But they were too small, and by the time they dug out the things buried underneath, two quarters of an hour had passed.

Yun Ranqing worked the hardest.

It was a box, a very exquisite wooden box.

Yun Ranqing opened it, and there was another box inside, a jade box.

It was obvious that it was not an ordinary item.

When he opened the jade box again, a chubby old ginseng was lying quietly.

"Hurry, let's go." What else did Yun Ranqing not know.

This was the ginseng that the queen mother received, and it was replaced and buried here.

One move to frame someone, kill two birds with one stone.

Not only did he get this ginseng, but he also harmed the queen mother.

But now is not the time to think about this, saving the mother is the most important thing.

Why doesn't Sister Feng care even if she knows that the ginseng is buried here.

Yun Ranqing once again carried Feng Tianxing and ran. Feng Tianxing held the box to her chest, fearing that it would fall to the ground due to the bumps.

No matter how tired he was this time, Yun Ranqing did not dare to stop, time is life.

When he ran to Minghe Hall, the queen had been stripped of her phoenix crown on the spot, and was about to be stripped of her phoenix robe by the palace maids.

Ministers and family members were kneeling on the ground, but there were also some standing, some begging for mercy, and some saying that the queen was not worthy of the position.

"Wait." Yun Ranqing shouted.

Then he put Feng Tianxing down and gasped for breath.

Everyone was looking at him.

"Fourth brother, your mother has done such a shameful thing, she is no longer worthy of being the queen, so don't make trouble." Yun Ransheng said proudly.

But when his eyes fell on the box in Feng Tianxing's arms, his eyes suddenly bulged.

How is this possible?

"Father, it is impossible for the Queen Mother to steal the ginseng you care about. I have found the ginseng that the Feng family gave to the Queen Mother.

It was buried in the Yu Garden. I saw a wild cat digging there, so I went to have a look out of curiosity.

As a result, I saw a corner of the buried box exposed."

Yun Ranqing took the box dug out of the soil from Feng Tianxing's arms.

Everyone saw that there was still some dirt on it that had not been wiped clean.

You can tell at a glance that it was just dug out of the soil.

Yun Ranqing walked step by step to Yun Hongxiao, opened the box, and revealed the jade box inside.

As soon as Yun Hongxiao saw the jade box, he knew that this was the box he used to store ginseng.

Yun Ranqing did not stop, and continued to take the jade box and opened it.

The fat ginseng appeared in front of Yun Hongxiao, Concubine Zheng and others.

The ginseng was full and the roots were intact. It was definitely top-grade ginseng, and it was even better than the one just now.

No evidence was needed, the actual object was the evidence.

The queen did not lie.

Yun Hongxiao felt embarrassed, he did not believe the queen.

After being a king for many years, he was blinded by the superficial phenomena.

With a wave of his hand, the palace people stepped back, Yun Hongxiao walked down the steps, and personally put the phoenix crown on the queen.

But Wu Miaozhen was already heartbroken and crying. So

what if she was the queen? The emperor could send her to hell in an instant with just one word.

"It's my fault. The fourth prince has made great contributions in finding the ginseng, so he is specially named Ming Wang." To make up for his mistake, Yun Hongxiao named Yun Ranqing the king on the spot.

Eight-year-old prince!

A special case for three dynasties. A

treatment that neither the eldest prince nor the second prince has.

But it also indirectly shows a meaning.

Yun Ranqing will never be named the crown prince in the future.

Just think about it, how can a prince whose face no one can see inherit the throne?

So it doesn't matter if he is named the king early.

"Thank you, father." Yun Ranqing knelt down to thank him, but he was not happy in his heart.

This was his father comforting his mother.

Concubine Zheng was so angry that she twisted her handkerchief.

The mother and son exchanged glances, but it was too late.

Hey,

trying to fetch water with a bamboo basket! "Investigate, investigate thoroughly for me." Yun Hongxiao felt ashamed.

"Yes." Eunuch Yuan accepted the order.

Only he could do this.

The ginseng was found in the palace, so it was not a thief from outside.

The queen could not interfere because she was the person involved.

The Mid-Autumn Festival banquet was disrupted by a theft, and no one ate well.

But what should be done must continue.

The emperor led everyone to the outside of the hall.

The altar had been set up outside the hall.

Moon cakes, apples, red dates, grapes and other offerings were placed on the large incense table. The tablet of the moon god was facing the direction of the moon, and red candles were burning high.

It was the time when the moon was at its zenith.

Yun Hongxiao personally lit the incense, bowed three times, and inserted the incense into the incense burner.

The ministers and female relatives followed suit and knelt three times and kowtowed nine times, praying for blessings.

The Mid-Autumn Festival dinner ended hastily.

Feng Tianxing gave Xiao Hei another reward.

A small bottle of spiritual liquid, that is a good thing, it is of great help to its cultivation.

Xiao Hei drank it on the spot, and then stayed in the space, and would not come out for a short time.

The next day, the eunuch Ren from the palace came again and asked Feng Zuwen to go to the palace to see the emperor.

Feng Zuwen had already known what was going on, so he changed his clothes and followed him into the palace.

"Your servant, Feng Zuwen, pays homage to the emperor." In the study, Feng Zuwen knelt on one knee with a military salute.

"My dear Feng, no need to be polite."

Yun Hongxiao walked out from behind the dragon case, sat down next to the tea table under the window, and waved for Feng Zuwen to sit over.

Eunuch Yuan was very tactful. He asked the palace maid to serve the two of them good tea and then they left together.

"Hey, my dear Feng, I embarrassed you yesterday."

Feng Zuwen didn't respond. He picked up the tea and took a sip.

In the words of his concubine: blind.

But can he say it?

Of course not.

"Where did you get the ginseng?" Yun Hongxiao asked. This was the purpose of his calling someone here.

The 500-year-old ginseng in his hand is the oldest ginseng known in the entire Yanyan Kingdom.

He treasures it like his life.

He really wants to keep it to save his life.

Even when the Queen Mother was sick once, he was reluctant to take it out to use.

Last night, he looked at the Queen's ginseng again and again, and wanted to take it for himself, but he was embarrassed when he thought about how he hurt the Queen's heart for the ginseng.

This morning he sent the ginseng to the queen and put his own ginseng back into the jade

box
