Chapter 309 Exiled to Loneliness
If you want to be exiled, then you should be exiled. Why would you be exiled with your servants and concubines?
Isn't this clearly telling others that Chu Chengshuo's exile should not be taken seriously?
No wonder Chu Chengshuo is still lawless even in Ninggu Pagoda.
"You mean to say that it was Chu Chengshuo who brought his own people to do evil in the area?"
Chu Qinshu frowned, wondering who this person could be.
"Yes, it's his concubine Jiang Ruoqing."
Little Gourd never expected that Jiang Ruoqing would become stronger after going to Ninggu Pagoda.
When he was in the capital before, Chu Chengshuo relied on Fu Ronger's financial support to do things that were not presentable.
Jiang Ruoqing cannot compare with Fu Ronger in terms of financial resources, nor can she compare with the staff supported by Chu Chengshuo in terms of intelligence and scheming.
It can be said that when she was in the capital, apart from competing for favor with Fu Ronger, she did not help Chu Chengshuo at all.
Unexpectedly, after going to Ninggu Pagoda, she could do such unexpected things.
"Alas, although Chu Chengshuo was demoted to a commoner, Jiang Ruoqing is still the eldest daughter of Marquis Guiyi. I'm afraid those local officials also gave her convenience for the sake of Marquis Guiyi, right?"
Chu Qinshu's frown never relaxed.
Although Jiang Ruoqing was a concubine's daughter, Marquis Guiyi had only one daughter and he loved her very much.
Moreover, she gave birth to Chu Chengshuo's only son, Chu Yanhong.
As long as you are willing to ask, you can know everything about Chu Yanhong's life in the palace.
Therefore, Emperor Yongping's exile of Chu Chengshuo was essentially an exile of loneliness.
Although he can no longer harm the Eastern Palace, he still endangers the people.
"Yes, Master is right. This is indeed the case. Otherwise, it is impossible that so many villages were oppressed without anyone knowing about it."
Little Gourd also felt like sighing.
It seems that Sheng Anguo’s problem lies at the root.
Otherwise, find a way to make Emperor Yongping abdicate?
"Let's go to Ninggu Pagoda."
It is now June, and the annual crops in Ningguta will be harvested in three months. She has to take action first to protect the people's harvest this season.
"What are we going to do? If we don't solve the problem fundamentally, we can help once, but we can't help forever."
Xiao Hulu stood there, without any intention of supporting Chu Qinshu.
"Then let's go to Jingxiao Camp and find my father."
Chu Qinshu also knew that she thought too simply.
No matter whether it is Chu Chengshuo or Prince Ning, neither of them can die in her hands.
Even if Emperor Yongping asked her to take action, she couldn't do it.
To put it simply, it is a matter between father and son. As a young person, she is easily neither a good person nor a good person if she gets involved.
Generally speaking, that is a matter that the law should deal with. How could a little princess like her, who is only a few months old, have the right to interfere?
"Well, your father should be in charge of national affairs. Your royal grandfather's brain is a little useless at the moment."
Little Gourd nodded and took the lead to walk out this time.
After passing through the fog and reaching the valley, Chu Qinshu called the Eagle King and the Hawk King.
She used to like to call them White Tiger King and Snow Wolf King, but after she flew with Eagle King a few times, she felt that flying was cooler.
And now it's summer, so it's cooler to fly.
"Eagle King, Eagle King, go to the camp outside the capital to take charge of the commander's account."
After Chu Qinshu and Xiao Hulu lay on the backs of the Eagle King and the Eagle King respectively, she gave the order.
Since it's teleportation, it's better to go directly to the main account to avoid appearing above the camp outside the capital and getting hit by arrows.
When you leave, you can fly in the air.
Chu Qinshu went to the camp outside the capital, and Emperor Yongping also returned to his study after court.
Although he had already held Chu Qinshu in his arms, he knew that she was asleep and would sleep all day.
Today, I'm afraid I won't pay any attention to him.
"Lin Fu, please tell us about the side hall in detail. Don't leave anything out."
Although he felt guilty, he would not be perfunctory about things that needed to be made clear.
"emperor......"
Lin Fu looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated, and Emperor Yongping guessed that something bad had indeed happened in the side hall.
"Go ahead."
After sending the outsiders away, Emperor Yongping spoke.
"In reply to the emperor, after I helped Prince Ning back to the side hall, Prince Ning sent me out, leaving only a young eunuch to serve him."
"When the imperial physician arrived, I accompanied him inside and found that the eunuch was in a trance, crying and making a fuss. Prince Ning was annoyed by the noise, so he asked the imperial physician to give the eunuch an acupuncture injection. The imperial physician said that the eunuch would be fine after he woke up from a nap."
It was only when Lin Fu saw the imperial guards going to the side hall to search people one by one that he realized something else had happened during the morning court session.
"You mean, when the imperial physician came to treat Prince Ning's injury, the eunuch went crazy?"
Emperor Yongping knew there was a problem as soon as he heard it. The imperial physician who came to identify the powder said that the powder would take effect half an hour after inhalation, but if swallowed, it would take less than a quarter of an hour to take effect.
The young eunuch obviously swallowed the medicine.
As for how to swallow the medicine, is there any need to explain it?
"yes."
Lin Fu nodded.
When Prince Ning asked him to leave, he was not polite at all. Although he was serving the emperor, he was still a servant after all.
How could he have any real face in front of the prince? What could he do if he was chased out?
Unexpectedly, he had been out for less than two quarters of an hour when such a thing happened in the side hall.
Those who came to serve in the palace had all been screened through layers of selection. If that young eunuch was crazy, he would definitely not be allowed to enter the palace.
Combined with the subsequent search by the Guards, he had a rough idea of what happened.
Therefore, he did not dare to talk about this in front of those irrelevant people in Yu's study.
"Have all the courtiers woken up?"
Emperor Yongping asked again.
"No, when I left, the ministers and the young eunuch were still asleep. The imperial physician said they would probably need to sleep for two or three hours before waking up."
He asked the imperial physician about this, and the physician said that the time when those people would wake up would be determined based on the amount of inhalation.
Those ministers might wake up after two or three hours of sleep, but if the eunuch is lucky, he may not wake up until tomorrow. If he is unlucky, he may not even wake up.
"How is Prince Ning's injury?"
Although Emperor Yongping had read the note Lin Fu wrote to him, he still wanted to confirm it.
He was somewhat angry at Prince Ning's incompetence, so after the court session, he went straight back to Yu's study.
As for Prince Ning, who broke both legs in a fall, he didn't even look at him.
After letting the imperial physician bandage his wounds, he sent a team of imperial guards to escort him and the imperial physician back to Prince Ning's palace.
"Both my legs are broken. The doctor said I need to lie down and rest for half a year before I can walk again."
Lin Fu could not figure this out. The ground of Qinzheng Hall was smooth and flat, so how could one break his leg by just falling?
"I know this. What I mean is, did the imperial physician tell me why Prince Ning broke his leg?"
Emperor Yongping had the same doubts as Lin Fu.
