249 Questioning, Qingchen is implicated
"Master, everything has been settled. Let's go back first. You are still injured." Sun Sixing persuaded Feng Qingchen when he saw him finish the steamed bun in a few bites.
Feng Qingchen nodded. There was indeed nothing for her to do here. All the important patients had been bandaged and sent to the clinic. The prince had said that he would be responsible for today's affairs and all medical expenses would be paid by the prince's mansion.
Wang Jinling also said that if any labor force in the family died tragically in the accident, the Wang family would bury them, and the family members of the deceased would also be able to go to the Wang family, where they would arrange jobs for them and would not let anyone starve to death.
The prince is also a smart man, and he knows how to take advantage of opportunities to win over the hearts of the people. Medical expenses and resettlement expenses are just a few pearls to him, but to ordinary people, they are their life savings. Besides, what happened today has brought disaster to the people.
Amid the cheers of the people, the prince and Wang Jinling returned to the palace at noon.
The emperor was very worried by the sudden explosion and could not sit still in the palace. After hearing that the situation had calmed down, he immediately recalled the crown prince and Wang Jinling, along with all the civil and military officials, leaving only Zhai Dongming to command the scene.
The master and his disciple had just packed up their things and were about to say something to Zhai Dongming when they saw the eunuch from the imperial palace riding a horse, galloping over with the imperial edict in hand. He began to pull the reins from a distance, and the eunuch's unique duck voice rang out: "The imperial edict has arrived, Feng Qingchen accepts it."
Feng Qingchen was stunned for a moment, his heart skipped a beat, he glanced at the cleaned-up street, smelled the faint smell of gunpowder in the air, and had a bad feeling in his heart.
It's over. She has over-performed today and attracted the emperor's attention.
"Master, what's wrong with you? Kneel down quickly." Sun Sixing hurriedly pulled Feng Qingchen down. Feng Qingchen looked dazed, thinking about whether he had revealed anything in front of anyone else today except Wang Jinling.
It was not until his knees were hurt by stones that Feng Qingchen came to his senses. He knelt on the ground with a respectful look on his face, waiting for the eunuch to announce his decree.
Feng Qingchen reviewed everything that had happened today, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Except in front of Wang Jinling, she did not reveal any flaws in front of anyone else. Don't worry, even if the emperor asked, she could refuse.
She believed that no matter how many questions Wang Jinling had, he would definitely help her in front of the emperor. She still had this trust in her.
As Feng Qingchen expected, the emperor ordered her to enter the palace immediately, so she rode the eunuch's horse back. The emperor was waiting for her in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
"Miss Feng, this is your card. When you get to the palace gate, you can enter the palace with your card. Please hurry up, Miss Feng. The emperor has been waiting for you for a long time."
The eunuch spoke gently, and looked at Feng Qingchen with a flattering look. When he stuffed the cards into Feng Qingchen's hand, he whispered a reminder: "Miss Feng, the emperor wanted to summon you to the palace a long time ago, but was persuaded by the crown prince and the eldest son. This group is in a bad mood, so you should be careful."
"Thank you, eunuch." Feng Qingchen didn't understand why the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict was so nice to her. She wanted to reward him, but found that she had no money on her. There was only a purse in her sleeve that she hadn't thrown away in time.
"Father-in-law, I'm sorry. I was in a hurry to go out today and I'm inconvenienced."
The eunuch who delivered the imperial edict was not angry at all. Instead, he said with a smile: "Miss Feng, what are you talking about? Before leaving the palace, the Ninth Prince told us to take good care of Miss Feng. Miss Feng, you should go to the city quickly and don't let the emperor wait anxiously."
It turned out to be the Ninth Emperor's Uncle. Feng Qingchen said no more. After thanking him again and again, he got on his horse...
Riding on horseback, Feng Qingchen sorted out the questions that the emperor might want to ask. After thinking of a countermeasure, Feng Qingchen calmed down and entered the palace with a calm face.
Anyway, she would never admit that she knew what the explosives were today.
After giving the pair of playing cards to the guard at the palace gate, he got on the carriage and hurried to the Hall of Supreme Harmony. The carriage was moving very fast and Feng Qingchen felt very uncomfortable inside the carriage.
Feng Qingchen thought to himself, "This emperor is really interesting. Last time, His Royal Highness Prince Luo was injured and dying, he was not so anxious. But this time, a bomb made him so anxious. It seems that in the emperor's mind, conquering the world is the most important thing."
What happened at the city gate had been reported to the emperor long ago. Judging from Feng Qingchen's performance at the scene, even if she didn't know how to make explosives, she definitely knew more than the average person.
The emperor is not stupid. Although the people he sent did not hear what Feng Qingchen said, they could infer something from Feng Qingchen's performance.
It's no wonder that the emperor is so anxious, but today's explosives have made the emperor see the possibility of conquering the world. As long as Dongling can make this thing, there is no need to worry about the unification of the world.
Of course, now that others have such weapons, the emperor is also worried that Dongling might be blown up by this thing, so the top priority is to find out as soon as possible, and then it would be best if Dongling could manufacture it.
The Hall of Supreme Harmony is where the emperor usually holds meetings with his ministers. This is the first time Feng Qingchen has been here, and as soon as she stepped in, she noticed something was wrong.
The emperor sat high up in the seat, expressionless on his face, emitting a faint chill. His aura of majesty without anger made people feel inexplicably afraid.
The Ninth Prince, the Crown Prince, Prince Luo, Prince Su, and hundreds of civil and military officials stood on both sides, and intentionally or unintentionally, each of them exuded the majesty and aura of a superior.
Under the deliberate pressure from the Emperor and the ministers, Feng Qingchen only felt that the air in the Hall of Supreme Harmony was so thin that it made him breathless. Even his breathing was cautious and his heart stopped beating for a moment. In such an atmosphere, it was difficult not to tell lies, and it was even difficult to speak.
Fortunately, she has seen the world. Although she did not have the opportunity to become the personal physician of the president or prime minister in her previous life, or to participate in the G8 summit or the summit meeting, she has met several senior military officials and attended some military meetings. Her ability to withstand pressure is better than that of ordinary people.
However, the murderous aura of the military generals was still a little lacking compared to the pressure deliberately created by the emperor.
(5) Beads of sweat kept oozing out from his forehead. Feng Qingchen took a deep breath and pinched his waist. He regained his composure after feeling the pain.
"I, Feng Qingchen, pay my respects to His Majesty. Long live the Emperor."
Wang Jinling felt relieved to see that Feng Qingchen was able to perform the salute properly under the pressure deliberately created by the emperor.
Feng Qingchen is indeed extraordinary. There are not many people in the world who can remain calm under the pressure of the emperor and civil and military officials.
"Stand up." As soon as the emperor spoke, the atmosphere in the Hall of Supreme Harmony relaxed a lot, and Feng Qingchen secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
I am an ordinary person. If I compete with the emperor and the civil and military officials in terms of momentum, I will die early. Even if she can hold on for a while, she can't hold on for a lifetime.
"Feng Qingchen, look at this thing, do you recognize it?" The emperor did not give Feng Qingchen too much time and pointed at a black object in front of his desk.
"ah……"
Feng Qingchen screamed, and fell to the ground with a thud, tears in his eyes, full of fear and helplessness, as if he had suffered a huge fright.
She didn't expect that the emperor would use this trick on her. It was too sudden. Fortunately, her acting skills were pretty good and her reaction ability was fast. Feng Qingchen didn't care about her image at all. She sat on the ground very rudely, not moving...
