Chapter 87 Exploded
The scene was silent for a moment, and all the people in the capital looked at this side with a bit of curiosity.
There were too many people eating spectacles, and soon the streets on both sides were blocked.
The guards of the palace immediately took order and separated a street that could be passed.
Ling Fengxun got on the carriage and had Zhou Cheng hung on the horse's back. The team marched towards Zhou Mansion in a mighty manner.
An Yunxi had already hidden in the carriage. When she saw Ling Fengxun coming up, her eyes fell on Ling Fengxun's waist and abdomen, "Prince, does the wound still hurt?"
Ling Fengxun said, "It has healed, it's not a big deal."
An Yunxi raised her eyes, her eyes were moist, and her eyes were like crystal clear gems.
"After I fell asleep, was it the prince who brought me back? You were still injured and you were holding someone. Did the wound break?"
No matter how An Yunxi thought, she could not imagine how she suddenly slept from the general's mansion to the prince's mansion.
Ling Fengyan raised the corner of his lips, "You are not heavy."
An Yunxi said angrily: "The prince really doesn't care about his body at all
." It was the same in his previous life.
Even a man of iron can't be so harsh. After the poison
was detoxified, the wound was just a little skin injury for him, not a big deal, and it didn't affect his daily activities at all.
Ling Fengyan enjoyed this care very much, and his thin lips had a little more shallow arc. The smile was not deep, but very relaxed.
Not long after, the carriage stopped at the gate of Zhou's mansion.
All the people and livestock of the Zhou family were driven out. They were surrounded by the guards of the palace, looking at the carriage of the regent king in a daze, and kneeled down belatedly. The
carriage was not moving very fast, so it attracted countless people who wanted to see the excitement along the way.
Even some officials in the capital were alarmed, and they hurriedly came to the vicinity of Zhou Mansion in a carriage and found a good place for themselves to watch the event.
The news spread into the palace like flying.
The emperor was still having lunch, but just after taking two bites, Eunuch Wu trotted in.
"Your Majesty, a big event just happened in the capital. It is said that the Regent Prince wants to publicly try Zhou Yushi and accuse Zhou Yushi of corruption and abuse of power and slandering the prince!"
After a pause in his meal, Emperor Beiling raised his head, and there was a hint of darkness in his eyes.
He tapped his fingers lightly on the table and said, "Call the second prince over."
"Yes."
Eunuch Wu left, and not long after, a figure wearing a green brocade robe appeared.
The man was very young, not even twenty years old, but his aura was very mature and stable, giving people a very reliable feeling.
He moved carefully and had no expression on his face. That cold face was somewhat similar to Emperor Beiling.
"Your son greets you, father."
Emperor Beiling is not old. On the contrary, he looks very young. He has just turned 40 and is in his prime.
However, due to his serious illness, his face is paler than that of ordinary people, and his voice is also weak.
"Okay, no need to be polite. I will arrange for you to do something."
The second prince Ling Changxi saluted respectfully.
"Your Majesty, please speak."
"Regent Prince Gongshen Zhou Yushi Zhou Cheng, you personally bring the imperial guards and say that you are ordered to listen to the trial. You must give everyone justice."
The second prince quietly raised his eyes and glanced at his father's expression.
Now the crown prince Ling Changyue has been imprisoned and has not come out for many days.
"Your son obeys your order."
He stood up, with a slender and upright figure, and turned away without saying a word.
Half an hour later, the second prince's carriage also arrived at Zhou Cheng's mansion.
The officials who came to watch the excitement were shocked and stood up to salute in the direction of the second prince.
The second prince got off the carriage with a sullen look on his face, and then walked directly to Ling Fengxun.
His carriage and Ling Fengxun's carriage arrived at almost the same time.
The palace is a little closer to here.
In addition, the carriage of the palace had to wait for the people who caught up, so the speed was slower.
Ling Fengxun raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at the second prince.
The second prince has not grown up yet, and his height is half a head shorter than Ling Fengxun. He can only raise his head slightly to look at each other, and his momentum is much worse.
Ling Fengxun narrowed his phoenix eyes slightly, and his eyes were cold.
"Second Prince, what are you doing here?"
Suddenly, the Second Prince, who was standing straight, knelt on one knee to salute.
"Changxi pays respects to Uncle Xuan."
An Yunxi hid in the carriage and secretly saw this scene.
She was not surprised by the Second Prince's behavior.
Because this Second Prince has always wanted to pull Ling Fengxuan to stand on his side and become his man.
The Second Prince and the Crown Prince were fighting for the throne, and the power of the two maternal families was not much different. The Imperial Concubine and the Queen also fought back and forth in the palace, and they were in a state of confrontation.
Even the power to manage the six palaces was basically one person doing one, three, and five, and the other doing two, four, and six.
She still remembered the fate of this Second Prince.
After the Crown Prince succeeded to the throne, he accused him of treason and tied him to the gallows and executed him.
The Manchu family of the Xiangfu was exterminated, leaving no one alive.
Anyway, the end was extremely miserable.
However, the third prince, as a playboy, had never participated in party disputes and escaped. He was sent out of the capital by the crown prince Ling Changyue and became a leisurely prince in name only.
Ling Fengxun lowered his eyes, "What are you doing here?"
"My father ordered me to watch you judge the case here today, saying that justice must be upheld."
Ling Fengxun slowly raised the corners of his lips.
"Then you should open your eyes and watch carefully how I give justice to the world."
After he said this, he turned his eyes away from the second prince.
The second prince also stood up, patted the dirt on his knees, and then retreated to his subordinates.
There were many protectors around him, and they asked in a low voice: "Second Prince, the emperor's intention should be for you to protect Zhou Cheng."
The second prince narrowed his eyes, his face as cold as ever, like an iceberg.
"No need, just watch from the sidelines."
The person who spoke was the consigliere arranged by the imperial concubine to be beside him. Hearing the second prince's answer, he was obviously a little anxious.
Ling Fengyan stood at the gate of Zhou's mansion, glanced at Zhou Cheng who was tied to the ground and gagged, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
"Your Highness, everything is ready."
Someone came out of the mansion. It was a servant who went into the mansion to bury explosives.
Ling Fengyan glanced at the increasing number of people gathering outside, and spoke slowly.
"Bomb the palace!"
The palace guards immediately rushed the onlookers to a safe place.
The second prince and other court officials also stood aside.
An Yunxi sat quietly in the carriage, looking deeply at the Zhou family.
Zhou Cheng's face was pale at this time, his knees softened and he knelt directly on the ground. He looked up with his eyes wide open, helplessly watching someone light the fuse.
Sparks flew out.
The fuse burned to the inside in the blink of an eye.
The next moment, only a deafening explosion was heard.
"Bang bang bang!"
