Chapter 55: Nowadays, being toothless has become a crime?
Princess Li did not expect that the truth would be like this.
The eldest prince did not force Jiujiu to eat the buns.
Jiujiu just told them that she and the eldest prince ate twenty baskets of buns. She must be sharing something interesting with them.
They misunderstood.
Concubine Li coughed twice and said, "Mother will take you to your father to plead your case!"
The mother and daughter took a sedan chair to the imperial study.
When they arrived, the eldest prince had also arrived and was kneeling. Jiujiu got off the sedan chair and walked towards where the eldest prince was kneeling.
Concubine Li went into the imperial study to find Emperor Zhaoning to find out the truth of the matter.
"Big brother, can you please get up?"
Jiujiu wanted to pull the eldest prince up, but after spending a long time, she still couldn't do it.
The eldest prince said, "Jiujiu, this matter has nothing to do with you. It was my father who asked me to kneel. Go play somewhere else."
“…”
Well.
related.
But she didn't dare to say it directly for fear of being spanked.
"Brother, just get up, okay? It's okay. No one will blame you. Really, I promise."
As soon as he finished speaking, Fu'an came out and issued an order, asking the eldest prince to stand up.
The eldest prince knelt for unknown reasons and stood up for unknown reasons.
He asked puzzledly: "Eunuch Fu'an, why did the emperor ask me to kneel?"
"This..." Fuan glanced at Jiujiu beside him and said the words that Emperor Zhaoning had just taught him: "The emperor said that you have not fixed your teeth for many days, which is too rude, so he made you kneel. Please find Concubine Hui to fix your teeth as soon as possible, otherwise, you will be punished to kneel again."
The eldest prince: “…”
It turned out to be because he knocked out his front teeth.
Nowadays, having no teeth has become a crime?
The eldest prince let out a breath of foul air in silence and said, "I will go to my mother to get her tooth fixed. I will get a gold tooth."
He murmured, "This way, if I'm short of money someday, I can just take off my teeth and sell them for money. Hahahaha, I'm so smart."
"no……"
Jiujiu caught up with the eldest prince and wanted to explain the misunderstanding. Wasn’t she afraid of being spanked?
But she was pulled back by Fuan.
"Princess, please don't say that." Fu An said, "It's a good idea to take this opportunity to have the eldest prince's teeth fixed. Otherwise, everyone will laugh at the eldest prince behind his back, and the emperor will happen to hear a few words and feel bad."
"All right!"
Jiujiu stopped chasing and followed Fuan back to the imperial study.
The little episode of eating twenty baskets of buns is over.
Emperor Zhaoning did not blame the eldest prince anymore, but he was a little curious. How delicious were the buns that the eldest prince and Jiujiu ate? How could they eat 20 baskets? And they went there every day?
Later, he asked someone to buy some back so that he and Concubine Li could try it.
Okay, that’s a happy decision.
Emperor Zhaoning nodded and continued to talk to Concubine Li about the Thirteenth Prince.
The Thirteenth Prince’s affairs are difficult to investigate after so many years!
If you want to overturn the verdict, you have to get all the details of the incident clear.
Emperor Zhaoning asked Concubine Li if she had noticed anything unusual before the accident with the Thirteenth Prince.
Princess Li thought about it and shook her head.
Jiujiu muttered to himself.
[Abnormality is useless. ]
[But it is written in the book that the reason why Thirteenth Brother was accused of poisoning by Princess Wen was because Princess Wen was bribed.]
[Princess Wen accepted a large amount of money from the person who actually poisoned her, and added a pill of magic medicine that could save her biological mother's life, and then she testified against her Thirteenth Brother.]
[And the person who bribed Princess Wen has not let her go over the years. ]
[Because he was short of money, he had been taking advantage of this and wrote to Princess Wen every month to extort money.]
[Now that Princess Wen is about to return, if my cheap father can find the correspondence between Princess Wen and the person who poisoned her in recent years, the truth can be revealed.]
After hearing this, Emperor Zhaoning's originally nonsensical thoughts instantly became clear.
He immediately sent people to find a way to seize the letters Princess Wen had sent in recent years in order to overturn Thirteen's case.
Jiujiu really helped him a lot.
If he were to look for these clues himself, even if Princess Wen came and left, he might not be able to find out the whole thing, because the time was too tight and the incident happened too long ago, making it difficult to investigate.
But after Jiujiu's reminder.
He can save a lot of effort.
The injustice done to Thirteen can also be cleared up as soon as possible.
Emperor Zhaoning was somewhat happy.
He looked at Jiujiu blankly for a long time.
Jiujiu was puzzled: "Why is Father looking at Jiujiu like this?"
"Because Jiujiu is so cute!" Emperor Zhaoning said lovingly, "Father can never get enough of looking at her."
[This is so sour! ]
[When did my cheap dad become so smooth-talking? ]
Emperor Zhaoning: “…”
He was speaking from the heart, from the heart.
Jiujiu actually said that he was smooth-talking?
My heart hurts so much!
Emperor Zhaoning covered his chest and sighed.
Seeing this, Concubine Li asked, "Your Majesty, are you feeling unwell?"
Emperor Zhaoning didn't want to argue with the little brat, so he said, "It's alright." He paused, "Princess Li, Nine-Nine, I have already figured out how to investigate the slander of Thirteen for poisoning. Let's start with Princess Wen."
"You go back and wait for my good news."
[Ahhh, really? ]
[My cheap father actually knew to start with Princess Wen? ]
[Bianyi Dad was frowning just now, but now he has figured it out. His brain works so fast! Bianyi Dad has suddenly become smarter. Has he eaten too many walnuts recently? ]
Eat too many walnuts?
He hasn't eaten walnuts recently.
[Or maybe I took too much Melatonin? ]
[Never mind him, mother will be able to see brother Thirteen soon. ]
Jiujiu looked at Concubine Li excitedly.
Princess Li was also very excited.
Emperor Zhaoning saw a smile in Concubine Li's eyes and smiled too.
It turns out that if she is happy, he will be happy too, and if she is unhappy, he will be worried.
In order to make Concubine Li happier in the future, Emperor Zhaoning planned to do more things to make Concubine Li happy.
·
Jiujiu and Concubine Li took a sedan chair to the imperial study, and finally walked back to Qiu Shui Residence.
They both wanted to take a walk.
Jiujiu was running and jumping all the way, very active like a rabbit, so much so that she didn't notice that the small purse hanging around her waist had fallen off, and neither did the nanny or the maid who was accompanying her.
Because the nine-nine was running around, the place where the purse fell was too far away.
It’s normal that no one saw it.
And this purse happened to be picked up by the deputy director of the Imperial Medical Bureau.
The vice-president saw that the purse was small and exquisite, so he picked it up and took a look. He saw a piece of paper stuffed inside, so he took it out and looked at it curiously.
He originally thought that by looking at what was written on the paper, he might be able to find out who the owner of the purse was, so that he could have someone return the purse.
Unexpectedly, there was no name written on the paper, only a few crooked lines of words that were very eye-catching.
When he first saw these words, the vice president felt a headache and wanted to throw away the paper in his hand immediately.
How could there be such a vicious word?
It hurts my eyes to look at it.
But when he saw clearly what was written on the paper, his eyes widened in shock.
This is a prescription that can cure all kinds of poisons. It is very precious.
But this prescription has long been lost.
Where did this come from?
