Chapter 262: My Son is Willing
The explosive news came one after another, and the ministers felt a little overwhelmed.
The few people who had been secretly glancing at the young man while drinking were suddenly choked by the strong liquor and started coughing violently.
Someone accidentally dropped his bowl and chopsticks to the ground, and the crisp sound quickly attracted the attention of colleagues around him.
Jiang Yingcheng seemed oblivious to the noise around him, and his entire attention was focused on the information in front of him.
[Damn it! Cheng Cheng needs to see exactly on which day Aunt Xin Yan's accident happened! ]
When Jiang Yuexi heard this, she immediately retracted her glare at Xu Suxue.
Her mind was focused on the little guy's thoughts, and she didn't notice that Xu Suxue on the opposite side glanced quickly in their direction almost at the moment she withdrew her gaze.
[Hmm… In the summer of the thirteenth year of Tianqi, on the fifth day of the He month, Xu Suxue, who had become the Crown Prince’s concubine, mixed poison powder into the meals prepared for the Crown Prince according to the instructions of the King of Zhujin Kingdom. Aunt Xinyan happened to discover this…]
【Oh oh oh, Cheng Cheng knows! 】
[Brother Tong, Brother Tong, remember to remind Cheng Cheng in advance when the time comes. Cheng Cheng must save Aunt Xin Yan! ]
Although Aunt Xinyan is reluctant to have too much contact with them due to her position, she is still a very good person!
Originally, on that day, she only needed to go along with Xu Suxue to avoid death, but she wanted to save the prince, and Xu Suxue discovered her true intention, so she was killed!
Jiang Yuexi finally relaxed the breath she had been holding and took several deep breaths.
She hurriedly repeated the date in her mind several times and memorized it firmly in her heart. Then, it was as if all the strength in her body was suddenly drained away, and she almost collapsed to the ground!
It was only thanks to her great willpower that she managed not to lose her composure in such a situation.
"Sit down."
Suddenly, a low rebuke came to my ear.
Jiang Yuexi straightened her back reflexively, trying hard to hold back the moisture in her eyes.
The discipline that she always thought was too harsh in the past now sounds like the music of nature!
She reached out her hand and stroked the boy's head twice, feeling endless gratitude towards him.
She could now finally understand why her father had strictly forbidden them to reveal the little guy's supernatural powers.
This is to ensure that the little ones can have an innocent and safe childhood.
Jiang Yuexi felt a little relieved.
Marriage between two countries often involves too many complicated considerations. Fortunately, even if she cannot prevent Xu Suxue from entering the palace, she can change her mother's tragic fate!
only……
[Even though Zhu Jinguo is so bad, Chengcheng can't let Xu Suxue hurt my brother the crown prince! ]
【Chengcheng needs to prepare a small note! 】
The boy's eyes darted around among the uncles, as if he was looking for someone.
The next breath——
[Eh? Why is the scapegoat sitting so far back?! ]
[Ah! Is this what the cheated uncle always said, "There is a Hedong lion in the family"? Nonsense! This auntie looks very gentle! ]
【Where is the "Hedong Lion"! 】
Yuan Liangping's hand holding the glass cup shook violently, and the wine spilled all over the floor.
He had performed a great deed a few years ago, and he took the opportunity to ask for imperial decrees for his mother and wife.
Emperor Mingze was very forthright in his approval, so...
His wife should also be able to hear the young man's thoughts!!
Many court officials glanced at Yuan Liangping imperceptibly, their eyes full of sympathy.
Lei Zhixin even raised the cup in his hand and held it up to Yuan Liangping from a distance.
Farewell, brother.
On this day next year, we will remember to burn a stick of incense for you!
Wei Dairong was originally amazed at the little princess's magical powers, but when she heard these voices, her thoughts suddenly changed on the spot, and she was unable to keep up with the little guy's pace.
I wondered in my heart——
What is "Hedong Lion"?
When she was chatting with the ladies in the Yaoguang Palace, they were all very gentle and quiet. How could there be a "Hedong Lion" among them?!
Wei Dairong raised his head and was about to look in the direction of the little princess.
His view was blocked by Yuan Liangping's suddenly raised hand.
Yuan Liangping said confidently: "My lady, the little princess is now showing her magical powers. If I meet her eyes at this moment, she might discover this secret!"
"This secret" refers to the fact that they can hear the little prince's thoughts.
Wei Dairong hesitated for a moment and nodded.
"My husband, what you said is very true..." Yes.
[Strange, why is the victim suddenly blocking my aunt's face? ! ]
[Auntie is so pretty, Chengcheng wants to take another look! ]
Wei Dairong: “…”
Yuan Liangping: "..."
The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty: "..."
[If Cheng Cheng tells her auntie that the cheater hid a lot of private money in the soles of her shoes, will her auntie like her? ]
Yuan Liangping and his wife Wei Dairong had not made any movement for a long time, and the ministers looked reluctant.
Your Highness, please stop talking and leave your sucker a chance to live!
[Eh? Is there also some private money hidden on the beam opposite the bed at home? ]
[Wow! Can something be hidden under a tile?!]
The young man revealed several places where he hid his private money. The civil and military officials were amazed and felt that they had learned some great new knowledge.
Wei Dairong sneered and lowered his voice, "Hedong Lion? Private money?!"
Under everyone's gaze, Yuan Liangping's shoulders finally slumped down.
It looked dead.
He said weakly: "Madam, Madam, you...you listen to my explanation..."
Wei Dairong didn't even raise his eyelids: "You say."
Yuan Liangping: "..."
It seems there is no room for struggle...
Suddenly——
【Hmm? What are they going to do? 】
Yuan Liangping was stunned, and then a different light suddenly burst out in his eyes!
"Let's listen to the business first!"
It’s better to delay it as long as possible!
Everyone followed the young man's gaze.
The King of Zhujin suddenly stood up and said loudly, "Your Majesty."
"Since my daughter Su Xue accompanied me to the capital for the banquet three years ago, I have always been thinking about your highness the Crown Prince."
Xu Suxue covered her face with a handkerchief and made a coy gesture at the right time.
"I have often said that the national strength of Zhu Jin and Da Rui is very different, and I have advised her not to dream, but she is determined to stay in Da Rui and face His Royal Highness the Crown Prince day and night. I have no choice but to ask her shamelessly--"
"Your Majesty, are you willing to make friends with me, Zhu Jin, and Qin Jin?"
Jiang Yanchuan, who had just heard a big drama from the little guy's voice, looked solemn.
Although I don’t know why the young man would agree to let Xu Suxue enter the palace to be the prince’s concubine in the future he saw, but——
"The prince is still young, I——"
"Father," Jiang Tinghuai suddenly said, "I am willing."
Jiang Yanchuan: “…”
The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty: "!!!"
Jiang Yingcheng: [Huh? ! ! ]
