Chapter 79: Nonsense, Prince Ning's safety is the most important
Feng Ming thought about it and felt that what Lin Miaoyin said made sense, so he immediately changed direction and headed towards the palace.
They spent half a night in the Dali Temple prison, and then traveled back and forth. When they arrived at the palace, the sky was already turning pale.
Entering the palace with them were some courtiers who were attending court.
After entering the Meridian Gate, everyone dismounted from their horses and got out of their sedan chairs, except for the carriage that Lin Miaoyin was riding in, which kept galloping.
Shen Kuo, the commander of the Imperial Guard, stepped forward to stop the man. "Yu... There are rules in the palace that all people entering the palace must walk, and they are not allowed to carry swords or knives."
"My prince is seriously injured and unconscious. He can't get out of the car. I hope General Shen will be flexible." Feng Ming pleaded.
Shen Kuo lifted the carriage curtain and saw Beigong You, who looked pale inside the carriage. His expression suddenly changed. "What's going on?"
He quickly lowered the curtain of the carriage and sent a soldier to fetch the imperial physician.
"Please come in, King Ning." He cupped his hands and motioned Feng Ming to drive the carriage.
Rules are dead, but people are alive, not to mention that the person lying in the carriage is a war king. He can't just watch him get into trouble.
"Thank you, General Shen." Feng Ming bowed and continued driving.
This scene attracted the curious gazes of the court officials.
Before the court session, people began to discuss the matter.
"Go to Xuanhe Palace!" Lin Miaoyin ordered while sitting in the carriage.
Xuanhe Hall was where Emperor Ming held court.
If you want to make a fuss, you have to make it a big one. A playboy who is kept in a woman's boudoir arbitrarily tortures the king who is killing enemies on the battlefield, which will make the people feel disheartened!
Even though she had no good feelings towards Beigong You, she also knew that a hero should not be humiliated for no reason.
…
Palace of Heavenly Purity.
After Emperor Ming stood up, he washed and changed his clothes with the help of the young eunuch.
As soon as he put on the bright yellow dragon robe and the crown, the chief eunuch Sun Changhai came running over with a whisk in his hand, "Your Majesty, something terrible has happened. Something has happened in Xuanhe Palace!"
Sun Changhai was an old man who served Emperor Ming. He was always steady and prudent, and rarely showed such panic and anxiety.
So Emperor Ming immediately asked, "What happened?"
"Princess Ning brought the seriously injured Prince Ning into the palace. The carriage stopped in front of Xuanhe Palace and asked the emperor to make a decision for Prince Ning."
"Prince Ning was seriously injured? But did the people from the Dali Temple torture him?"
Beigong You was involved in the Beidi rebel party, so he put him in jail in anger.
This is also done to investigate the matter.
Under the sharp gaze of Emperor Ming, Sun Changhai nodded with difficulty, "It should be...it should be."
"How dare you!" Emperor Ming was furious.
Even though Sun Changhai had served in the imperial court for many years, he was still frightened by the cold voice.
But he knew that Emperor Ming was angry not because he felt sorry for Prince Ning, but because he was angry that the people in the Dali Temple were pretending to obey their orders but actually disobeying them and not taking him, the emperor, seriously.
"Send Prince Ning to Yilan Palace first." Emperor Ming said with a restrained breath.
Half of the people in the Dali Temple are Prince Jing's men. Now Prince Ning has come out of the Dali Temple with half his life lost, and he even went to the Xuanhe Hall to make trouble. Isn't this clearly telling the world that his sons are killing each other?
He can't afford to lose this person, and Beiliang can't afford to lose this person either.
"Yes, I obey your order." Sun Changhai bowed and left the Qianqing Palace holding the whisk.
Just as he was about halfway back, Emperor Ming called him back and said, "Go to the Imperial Hospital and ask Dean Zhang to go to Yilan Palace."
Yilan Palace was the palace where Prince Ning lived in his childhood, and it was also where his mother, Concubine An, lived.
Concubine An was the foot washer of the Queen. After she was favored by the Queen, she was released from Ganquan Palace.
At the instruction of Concubine Chen, she was sent to Yilan Palace, which was closest to the cold palace, by the people of the Shanggong Bureau. Concubine An was a non-competitive person, so she fell out of favor from then on.
Even after she gave birth to Prince Ning, Emperor Ming did not even remember that there was such a person as her in the harem.
"Your Majesty..."
Just as Sun Changhai was about to speak, he was interrupted by Emperor Ming, who suddenly thought of something, "You just said that Prince Ning was brought into the palace by Princess Ning?"
"yes."
"Forget it. Princess Ning knows medicine, so there is no need to ask Dean Zhang for now." Emperor Ming waved his hands.
"Your Majesty, General Shen has just sent someone to the Imperial Hospital to ask for someone."
"I understand. Go ahead."
Sun Changhai took the order and left. When he arrived at the Xuanhe Hall, the outside of the hall was already filled with civil and military officials who were attending the morning court.
The carriage of Prince Ning's mansion was parked in front of the white jade steps. The curtain had been opened, and the pale-faced, unconscious Prince Ning in the carriage was clearly visible to everyone.
His heart beat twice, and without taking a breath, he hurried forward with the whisk in his hand, "Your servant greets the Princess Ning."
"Eunuch Sun." Lin Miaoyin bowed.
Sun Changhai looked towards the carriage road and said, "The Emperor has already known about Prince Ning's affairs, and has specially ordered me to come and settle Prince Ning. Princess Ning, please follow me."
"In just one night, Prince Ning was tortured like this in the Dali Temple. Father, won't you investigate?"
"It's not that we won't investigate, but... the safety of Prince Ning is the most important thing!"
"May I ask Father..."
Before Lin Miaoyin could say anything, the queen in her palace dress came over with Chen Jian, the eunuch, and said, "Miaoyin, stop messing around!"
As she spoke, she ordered Eunuch Chen to take people to carry the unconscious Beigong You back to Ganquan Palace.
Sun Changhai said quietly, "The Emperor has ordered that Prince Ning be sent back to Yilan Palace. I hope the Empress will grant your permission."
The queen's expression changed slightly.
Yilan Palace has been uninhabited since she took Beigong You out of it.
That’s an abandoned palace!
Her expression relaxed, her eyelashes trembling slightly, "Of course I will obey the emperor. Chen Jian, send Prince Ning to Yilan Palace."
Lin Miaoyin didn't know where Yilan Palace was.
But when I saw the queen's face change, I knew it was not a good place.
However, when she and Beigong You arrived at Yilan Palace together, she understood why the Queen had such a complicated expression just now.
Unlike the magnificent Beiliang Palace with its flying eaves and brackets, half of the Yilan Palace is collapsed, while the other half is exposed to wind and sun and has fallen into disrepair over the years.
The bluestone steps in the yard were covered with moss, and weeds were growing everywhere, peeking out through the dilapidated wooden door.
The wooden door had long since weathered into a dead tree, and with a gentle push it shattered into a pile of sawdust.
Yilan Palace was separated from the Cold Palace by a wall. Now that the wall has collapsed, it has become completely connected to the Cold Palace.
The Yilan Palace was already in a dilapidated state twenty years ago. No one had lived there in recent years, and the palace servants did not take care of it. It was left in a dilapidated state, and was out of tune with the magnificent palace not far away.
The wooden door collapsed, raising sawdust. Yuzhu fanned it gently, fearing that it would choke Lin Miaoyin.
She couldn't believe that there was such a desolate place in the palace.
Sun Changhai escorted the group into Yilan Palace and stood outside the courtyard to pay his respects. "Please Princess Ning take good care of Prince Ning. I will not go in."
Lin Miaoyin nodded, and then looked at the queen, "Mother..."
She was about to persuade the Queen to go back, but as soon as she opened her mouth, the Queen looked towards the cold palace not far away with a panicked look and said to her, "You go in first. I will come to see Prince Ning when he wakes up."
"Yes." Lin Miaoyin watched the queen leave.
For some reason, she always felt that the Queen's steps when she returned were a little messy.
She had never seen the queen lose her composure before.
Turning around again, she suddenly saw a ball of flesh flash before her eyes, and she was so frightened that she screamed, "Ah!"
