The decision to return to Beijing was very sudden. Fortunately, most of the accompanying officials were ready to return to Beijing after the beginning of autumn, and all the things that needed to be packed were packed, so after breakfast, they were ready to go.

When they arrived, they were all distinguished ministers and their family members selected by the prince to accompany them. However, there were a few more prison cars in the team returning to the capital.

The Chaopin Duke's Mansion, which had been illustrious for hundreds of years, became a prisoner overnight, which naturally caused considerable turmoil among the accompanying officials and family members.

In this regard, the news coming out of the inner city is that the Liu family members and others are planning to murder the crown prince who has been personally sealed by the decree, which is no different from killing the prince. The evidence is conclusive and the confession will be made. The final disposition will be made after being escorted back to Beijing.

The news of the "intention to murder the Crown Princess" reached the ears of Wei Heng and Jiang. It was like being struck by lightning. Before they could recover, the chamberlain who delivered the news brought the news of Wei Hansu's death.

As soon as the two sides connected, there was something Jiang didn't understand, so he immediately softened and was quickly held by Wei Heng's waist to support him.

Wei Heng was also a little panicked. He didn't expect that a concubine could commit such a heinous crime. Ran Ran...!
After all, he reacted faster. He supported his wife with one hand and asked the servant who came over urgently: "How is my girl now? Is she okay?"

The chamberlain said respectfully: "You don't need to worry. The imperial doctor said that Miss Wei is fine. She is just not suitable for walking. She needs a good rest. The road back to Beijing is bumpy. His Highness is worried about the girl coming back. He will leave her in the car now." Resting."

The couple breathed a sigh of relief and obeyed the emergency. They had no objection to their daughter riding with His Highness before they were married.

Jiang was absent-minded for a moment. After clearing his thoughts, he dug his nails into the palms of his hands, forcing himself to calm down. He winked and asked Aunt Zhou to hand over a purse, and then said: "Thank you for coming, father-in-law. I don't know if I am a concubine." Where is the... body?"

The waiter was not surprised. He took the purse skillfully and said with a smile: "You two don't need to worry about this. Your Highness means that the concubine of your house suddenly fell ill on the way back to Beijing. You two can choose a day to pass the news." As long as the news of her death is announced, the fact that she framed the Crown Princess cannot be spread and it will only increase people's discussion."

corpse?

Where is the corpse? Who would allow the criminal who murdered the Crown Princess to be buried in glory?

When Jiang asked about Wei Hansu's body, she also hated her for daring to collude with the Liu family to murder the young daughter, and wanted to whip the body to vent her anger. However, since His Highness did not allow them to ask, she had no objection.

As the head of the family, Wei Heng thought more about it after being panicked at first.

He was more concerned about the safety of his young daughter and the Wei family than the life and death of his concubine.

The concubine in the family plots to kill the legitimate daughter, and Ran Ran is still the future crown princess... If something happens to her because of this, and His Highness becomes murderous, the entire Wei family may be implicated.

After hearing that the matter would not be spread, he finally believed that Ran Ran was fine.

The couple received the order respectfully, and after seeing off the chamberlain, they looked at each other, and Jiang turned away.

As soon as she thought about whether her delicate little girl was still well or not and suffered a lot, Jiang, who was not very patient with Wei Heng, suddenly felt angry.

It was the daughter he had with his concubine who murdered her Ran Ran!
Wei Heng was also caught off guard by the news. He didn't understand why the concubine, who had always been meek and weak, would collude with outsiders to harm his sister.

But since His Highness the Crown Prince has made a judgment, he will definitely not be wrong.

His concubine almost killed his legitimate daughter, this is a fact.

…………

The prince's palace was spacious and comfortable. Wei Hanzhang sat on the soft couch, looking at the entire four-fold double-sided painted screen that separated the inner room, and sighed that the prince's treatment was good. This is the ancient version of the RV.

A carriage, in addition to dining and sleeping rooms, even has a bathroom.

No wonder it takes six horses to pull the cart.

No matter how well equipped the anti-shock function is, the Wei family's carriage itself is not bad, but after riding for a long time, it will still feel bumpy, making it very uncomfortable at the end of the day.

In contrast, the equipment used by the prince is top-notch, and these disadvantages are not felt at all, and the fatigue from traveling and traveling can be reduced by most.

Wei Hanzhang took a sip of tea, and his dissatisfaction with this person for detaining him here and resolutely not allowing her to return to Wei's carriage disappeared.

Xiao Junzhan was sitting opposite, and he raised his hand to fill her empty tea cup very considerately. He was really frightened by the girl's repeated accidents, and he wished he could keep her under his eyes all the time. How could he let her go? go back.

It was already in the afternoon, and it started to rain lightly outside the car, bringing a bit of coolness to the originally hot weather.

In the prison car at the end of the convoy, the three members of the Liu family except Liu Wanning and Qi Yuxiao were all wearing shackles, their bodies were soaked by the rain, and they were in a state of embarrassment.

But they didn't care about anything else and raised their heads to catch the rainwater to quench their thirst.

There had been no water for nearly a day, and they were already thirsty. This rain was simply timely.

The guards guarding the prison car took one look and continued on their way without looking back.

They lamented in their hearts how disparate these dignitaries were after falling from the clouds.

Princess Changle looked at the rainy scene outside the car, her eyes slightly red. She held the husband's arm beside her and said worriedly: "Xiao'er is still soaking in the rain. How can she hold up as a girl?"

Prince Qi turned over a page of the book in his hand and said casually: "Xiao'er has been practicing martial arts since she was a child. Her nine-section whip is stained with a lot of blood, and she is not much weaker than men."

"You!" Princess Changle snatched his book angrily and said angrily: "Are you still a father? Your own daughter has suffered a catastrophe, and you can still say such sarcastic words like an innocent person!"

"Shu Shushu, I know how to read your books every day!" She tore the book in her hand in half, threw it on the table, and said bitterly: "If you don't like me, Xiao'er Yan'er will always be your biological child. Flesh and flesh, you just ignore them on weekdays, but now Xiao'er's life and death are uncertain, and you are not worried at all. Your heart is really made of stone! "

These years of cold treatment have made Princess Changle restrain her arrogance and learn to be gentle and show weakness. The last time she was so angry, it was many years ago now.

Prince Qi looked slightly dazed, but he quickly came back to his senses. He said calmly: "If it is useful to worry, how could things develop like this? Didn't His Highness the Crown Prince say that we will discuss how to deal with Xiao'er after returning to the capital? Your Majesty is here. , she’ll be fine.”

Princess Changle definitely agrees with this. Among the four sisters, her father dotes on her the most, and among her grandchildren, she likes her sons and daughters the most. As long as she returns to the capital and is under the wings of her father, she will not give in. Her Xiaoer had no possibility of being punished for the Wei girl.

Not to mention that Wei's daughter was just poisoned by a trivial poison. Even if something really life-or-death happened, her father would definitely not ask Xiao'er to pay for her life.
