Chapter 306 A rare opportunity
The morning court was not disturbed by Prince Ning's unexpected event.
Cui Jinyu did not return to his original position, but squeezed in the most sheltered position from the wind at the entrance of the palace, glaring at the court officials who were supposed to be standing in this position.
Of course, he was a military commander, and no one could rival him.
Moreover, he was holding the human-shaped amulet, so people didn't dare to snatch it from him. They could only move out of the way, and the two of them stood together.
Fortunately, they were in the last row, far away from Emperor Yongping, so unless one paid special attention, they might not be noticed.
[Second uncle, Prince Ning's medicine didn't fall on you, but the powder was spilled where he fell. I'm fine. I can't smell the medicine.]
Seeing that Cui Jinyu didn't even dare to return to his seat in court, Chu Qinshu was afraid that he would worry about her, so she stretched out her little arm and gestured a few times.
Because she was in court, she didn't dare to speak, and she didn't know whether Cui Jinyu understood what she meant.
But that was all she could do.
It was Xiao Hulu who took action just now, using his consciousness to throw the purifying talisman onto her and Cui Jinyu.
Neither she nor Cui Jinyu would be affected by the medicine in Prince Ning's body, but it was hard to say about the ministers in the court.
Xiao Hulu said that this drug is a hallucinogenic drug, and it will take effect in about half an hour after being inhaled.
I just don't know whether Prince Ning came for her or Cui Jinyu.
Cui Jinyu patted Chu Qinshu, hugged her tighter, and nodded, indicating that he understood what she meant.
Chu Qinshu felt relieved, her relatives really understood her.
Emperor Yongping, who was listening to the reports from court officials, frowned noticeably after hearing the emperor's thoughts, and frightened the court officials so much that they were almost silent.
"Go on."
Emperor Yongping adjusted his expression and continued to listen to the report.
......
Halfway through the morning court session, about half an hour later, a few officials in the court began to go crazy.
"Mom, please come and save me, I don't want to be killed..."
"The mountain is about to collapse, there is a landslide, hurry up and grab the silver..."
"I didn't kill you, so if you want to take my life, you shouldn't come to me..."
......
"Imperial Guards, take them down and have the imperial physician come and see them."
Lin Fu went to guard Prince Ning, and the one serving in front of the palace was his apprentice, Eunuch Liang.
Eunuch Liang had never seen such a fight and was unable to react for a while.
It was Emperor Yongping himself who spoke up and summoned the imperial guards.
Those crazy courtiers were quickly dragged out of the Qinzheng Hall by the imperial guards.
Normal order returned to the morning court.
But it was obvious that the few missing courtiers were standing closest to where Prince Ning fell.
And if Cui Jinyu hadn't run away, he would have been nearby.
Cui Jinyu's eyes widened when he saw those court officials going crazy.
I really can’t imagine if he were standing there, would he also go crazy for no reason?
If he goes crazy, will he throw out his niece in his arms?
The more Cui Jinyu thought about it, the angrier he became. If he hadn't been in court, he really wanted to run to Prince Ning and ask him for justice. There was no grudge between them, so why did Prince Ning want to harm him like this?
"Ah, ah ...
[Second uncle, Prince Ning might want to harm Shu'er]
[He always glared at Shu'er when he saw her in the morning court. Shu'er was not a stupid child, so of course she had seen it long ago, so Shu'er didn't want him to hug her.]
[Although Shu'er is young, her perception of good and evil is never wrong.]
Chu Qinshu saw Eunuch Liang quietly handing a piece of paper to Emperor Yongping. She guessed that the diagnosis results of those court officials must have come out.
She was worried that Emperor Yongping would get away with it, so she deliberately made some noises to deceive Prince Ning.
As for whether Emperor Yongping understood her meaning, she didn't care.
Anyway, she said what she should say in front of all the court officials.
If Emperor Yongping still does not deal with Prince Ning, then she will take action personally and hand him over to Ouyang Yue.
Anyway, Ouyang Yue wants him to be useful and he won't be killed in the short term.
She was young, and Emperor Yongping gave him chances again and again because he truly loved her, but Prince Ning obviously wanted to kill her this time.
If she let him go again, she might as well go into space and raise chickens.
When Emperor Yongping heard Chu Qinshu's thoughts, he could no longer read the paper in his hand, and could not attend the morning court.
"Retreat~"
When Eunuch Liang received the signal from Emperor Yongping, he spoke immediately.
"Your Majesty, I have something else to report."
Wang Zhenyue realized that what had just happened was unusual, so he spoke up and stopped Emperor Yongping before he could stand up.
"I have something important to attend to at the moment. General Wang, please report again tomorrow."
Emperor Yongping glanced at Wang Zhenyue, an old general who had retired to the capital and could not even guarantee to attend court every day. What important matters could he report?
As soon as he finished speaking, he prepared to stand up again.
Unfortunately, Wang Zhenyue stopped him again, "Your Majesty, those ministers suddenly went crazy today. I think it has something to do with a poison I have seen before."
The court officials all wanted to know the situation of the ministers, but after hearing what Wang Zhenyue said, they did not move.
After all, such a thing happened during court sessions, and they were afraid.
If they don’t figure out the reason, what will they do next time it’s their turn?
Moreover, if we dig deeper into what those ministers just said, we might find out some unknown things.
Anyone would feel uneasy.
"Poison, how could there be poison in this Qinzheng Palace? Old general, please don't make unfounded guesses."
Emperor Yongping couldn't leave for the moment, so he had to continue arguing with Wang Zhenyue.
He had to go down and ask Lin Fu whether he had found anything suspicious on the second brother.
If he really wants to attack Shu'er, he will never show any mercy.
But what if you get it wrong?
In the court, it was always due to the bad reputation of the royal family.
"Your Majesty, my guess is not groundless. There must be drug powder residue in the places where those ministers just stood. We just need to let the imperial physician to check it out."
Wang Zhenyue thought of various ways to get Emperor Yongping to kill him. How could he let go of this rare opportunity?
Moreover, he was certain that what happened today was closely related to Prince Ning.
Otherwise, why were all the other court officials fine, but the few ministers closest to where he fell were the ones who suffered?
If this poison had not been brought into the court by Prince Ning, Wang Zhenyue would have twisted his head off and used it as a stool.
Of course, this worrying matter still needs the permission of Emperor Yongping.
Alas, he just wants to die, why is it so difficult?
"Your Majesty, I think what General Wang said makes sense."
The Minister of War Zhao Zhixiong was the first to stand up and support Wang Zhenyue.
He was not doing this to help Wang Zhenyue. After all, he didn't know why Wang Zhenyue was so determined to find out the truth.
But he hated King Ning.
Because of Matthew, he hated King Ning.
Originally, he thought that he had taken great pains to send back the grandchildren that Matthew Li was about to send away.
If they report the incident of him 'losing' his grandson, which he staged himself, to the Dali Temple, their whole family can be brought to justice soon.
Unexpectedly, the dungeon of the Dali Temple only locked him up and did not touch him.
He would not believe that King Ning had no hand in this.
