Chapter 520 Crying with anger
"The fifth prince is still detained in Kunning Palace?"
Yan Qingqing pouted: "Will the emperor uncle really punish the fifth brother?"
Yan Sanlang sat in the hall and drank a sip of hot tea handed to him by his daughter. Then he thought something was wrong and looked at his daughter in confusion: "It's not right! Didn't you make an appointment with Xuan Jieer to go out and play today? Why haven't you gone to the appointment yet, but you are asking about the things in the palace?"
Yan Sanlang knew his daughter's character best.
She didn't even want to marry the prince, so how could she be interested in what happened in the palace?
I'm afraid she would be more interested in what flavor the candied haws sold on the street is today.
"I... I just asked casually."
Yan Qingqing coughed twice: "My throat is a little uncomfortable, and I told Sister Xuan that I won't go."
The main thing is that when she first heard that the third prince and the fifth prince wanted to marry her, her heart actually... leaned towards the fifth prince!
She didn't know what was wrong with her?
Obviously, she wanted to marry the third prince!
Why is she more worried about the safety of the fifth prince when the rumors about the two princes came out today?
Physical discomfort is fake, and inquiring for information is the real thing.
What kind of a person is Yan Sanlang?
He was the military strategist of the expeditionary army back then, and he played the kings of the three kingdoms of Jin, Fuso and Goguryeo around.
He could see through whether Yan Qingqing was lying or not at a glance.
Now he is lying with his eyes open!
"In a blink of an eye, our Qingqing is already thirteen years old."
Yan Qingqing's mind was full of the third and fifth princes, and she didn't hear clearly what her father said.
"It seems that our Qingqing's love star has moved."
The girl sat on the chair, her eyes filled with tangled emotions, her head drooping, and she looked like she was sighing.
There was a third prince and a fifth prince spinning around in her mind, making her dizzy.
"Okay, your father! I will go to the palace to ask for an imperial decree to grant you marriage, and let you be the third prince's consort."
The third prince's consort? !
Yan Qingqing stood up from her chair with a "whoosh": "Why not the Fifth Prince's Consort?"
Silence...deathly silent...
Hongguo nudged Yan Qingqing, who had turned into a stone statue on the spot, with his elbow, thinking he had misheard: "Girl, what do you mean? Aren't we going to be the Third Prince's Consort? Why..."
OK! Case
solved!
This silly girl wanted to be the Third Prince's Consort at first, but somehow she fell in love with the Fifth Prince.
But she herself didn't know that she fell in love with the Fifth Prince, and thought she liked the Third Prince, so she got into trouble.
He just lied to her because he couldn't figure out who the girl liked.
This lie really revealed that Qingqing liked the Fifth Prince.
Yan Qingqing's face was red enough to bleed. She stared at her "cunning" father unhappily: "I won't talk to you anymore."
She turned and ran away, and Hong Guo chased her in confusion.
What's going on?
What did the old man say?
Why did the girl get so angry that she almost cried?
When the lady and her friends come back from shopping, she will definitely complain, saying that the old man bullied the girl and made her cry.
Several magpies chirped on the branches. After the spring, the weather gradually improved. The warm breeze blew over the branches, and the flower trees in Kunning Palace dropped a shower of pink flowers. The scenery was in full view.
But the people in Kunning Palace did not have the leisure to appreciate this poetic and picturesque scenery at this time.
The study room where the Emperor and the Empress were was packed with people.
Jing Fengjie knelt on the ground with a bunch of reeds tied to his back, and came to apologize.
"I, your old minister, am here to pay my respects..."
"Master Taifu, please stand up quickly!"
Before Master Jing could even kneel down, Tang Shiliang and Xiao Yuezi held his arms.
The crown prince had also been summoned to Kunning Palace. He had a solemn look on his face. He held his great-grandfather's hands with both hands, patted his hands comfortingly, and looked at Jing Fengjie with disapproval: "Uncle, I know that everything you did was for me, but the third and fifth brothers are my biological brothers. They have treated me and other brothers and sisters very well since childhood. The reason why my marriage with the Yan family failed was not because of them, but because Qingqing and I only have brother and sister feelings. The one I like is General Meng's daughter. My father and mother know about it and have agreed."
Jing Fengjie widened his eyes and opened his mouth in surprise: "But...but..."
He hesitated for a long time but couldn't make any sense.
According to his logical thinking, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the future emperor, and the emperor cannot choose the Crown Princess according to his own preferences. After all, this is the future empress, and of course he has to choose the one who can help him the most.
But when he saw the Emperor and the Queen Mother looking at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, their love was so full that it was about to overflow, and he suddenly realized.
These two saints have paved all the way for His Royal Highness, and all the hardships and ups and downs are gone. What help do you need?
Dayan unified the world, the two saints worked diligently and loved the people, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, Dayan was peaceful and prosperous, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not need to consider any external factors when choosing a concubine, as long as he liked it, was happy, and was happy.
Jing Fengjie suddenly realized that the Crown Prince, who was loved wholeheartedly, did not need to calculate these at all.
Shen Mingye saw that he was stunned and had come to his senses. He pursed his lips and said, "You plotted against my third and fifth brothers to alienate the relationship between us brothers. But you never thought that a harmonious family is the foundation of everything. Many dynasties destroyed themselves because of serious internal strife. I don't want to be that kind of heartless, cruel and incompetent person. What I need is someone who can pull me back to the right path and persuade me not to kill my brothers. Uncle, after this time, you should leave me alone!"
After saying that, he didn't even look at Jing Fengjie's pale face. He supported the old Taifu Jing and said, "Great-grandfather, you are old now, so don't worry about us young people. You are Ye'er's great-grandfather and Ye'er's Taifu. Ye'er will always respect and honor you. I hope you can enjoy your old age."
He was telling Old Master Jing that if anyone else dared to do such a treasonous act, they would be guilty of a heinous crime, but this man was Jing Fengjie, the eldest grandson of his great-grandfather. No matter what, he would not harm Jing Fengjie's life.
But Shen Mingye had to give an explanation to the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince for what he had done. It was obviously unrealistic for him to continue to be the chief guard in the East Palace.
Even if the Third and Fifth Brothers did not care, Shen Mingye had to make his own attitude clear.
If something was done wrong, it was done wrong. Even if Jing Fengjie did all this for him, it could not cover up the fact that he used all means to frame the prince.
This seemingly light punishment was like the sky falling down for Jing Fengjie.
Since the day he entered the palace, he had already regarded the prince as his life mission.
Unfortunately, he only listened to the first half of Master Jing's sentence "enter the palace to protect the prince" and the second half "assist the prince well" and understood it as eliminating threats at all costs.
He used a method that the prince could not accept.
