Kangxi's mad favorite escaped concubine

Chapter 243: The Prince (1)
The crown prince frowned, a little hesitant. It's not that he didn't know the traditions of the past, but these customs have long been obliterated by Confucian culture. Would it be against ethics to do such a thing now?The prince hesitated for a moment before he sighed and said, "What's the point of me worrying about this? Huang Ama is healthier than me, when will I be the emperor!"

"Grandpa, Long Live Lord will definitely patrol outside the Great Wall again in June, and the guards must be the loosest then. You just need to do something to prevent Long Live Lord from returning to the capital again!"

The prince stood up suddenly in shock: "You...you...you dare to encourage me to seek to usurp the throne? Do you know what kind of crime this is!"

"Master!" Xiao Dongzi knelt down, "Xiao Dongzi is only thinking of you! Long Live Lord has been the emperor for more than forty years, and it's time to rest. Find a comfortable place for him to enjoy his old age , isn’t it the same as filial piety? Didn’t the late emperor and ancestor find a place he liked to spend his old age in peace? Lord, you have to think about it! This is your only chance!” Xiaodongzi urged the prince to die If he succeeds in the fight, he will be the chief steward of the imperial court, and he will enjoy endless glory and wealth in his life. If he loses, he will die at worst. Anyway, he already has nothing to worry about.

The prince was a little confused, he was never a decisive character, let him do such a rebellious thing, he...

In June, Xuanye took the prince, the first, third, fourth, thirteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth children to Rehe north, and left the eighth elder brother in Beijing to take charge of the affairs of the court.Just a few days before leaving, Wu Ya suddenly contracted a severe fever and cold, so she couldn't follow everyone on such a long-distance trek. However, the time agreed with the Mongol King remains unchanged year after year, and Xuan Ye couldn't cancel it with a short-term notice. Xuan Ye had no choice but to leave her in the palace instead of taking her along.

Wu Ya waved her hand to send the troops away, and when she turned her head, she couldn't help sighing, Kangxi has been in for 47 years, and after Xuan Ye stays in Rehe this time, he will abolish the crown prince!Wu Ya frowned, she still couldn't see any signs, she didn't know what happened to Qiu Di this time!

As an imperial doctor, Liu Shengfang went north with the large team, and Si Zhu had a lot of time to stay with Wu Ya and take care of her condition. They were not young anymore, and their bodies were not so healthy. It is always more open than others, but after all, it is still no match for the invasion of the years, and there are always serious illnesses and minor disasters.

"Sister, are you unhappy?" Si Zhu frowned, looking at Wu Ya's worried face, "It's not the first time Long Live Lord has left the palace to go north, what are you worried about?"

Wu Ya shook her head: "I just have a bad premonition!" Wu Ya frowned, in her impression, the eighteenth elder brother died of illness in the palace during this period.But her eighteenth birthday is still alive and kicking!There was no sign of illness at all, Wu Ya pushed him to Xuan Ye and took him to the grassland together, hoping that he could escape, at least, it would be different from the history she had seen.

The eighth and fourteenth elder brothers would still come to pay their respects to Wu Ya every afternoon, no matter how busy the government affairs were, they would never omit it.Wu Ya knew that their life in the court was not easy now, and the princelings always made things difficult for them, as if they were very resistant to the old eighth society usurping the position of the prince.

But only Wu Ya knows that Lao Ba has never been half-distracted from government affairs.Her three sons who were at the center of the legendary storm of seizing the heirloom actually did not have a high desire for the throne, especially the eighth elder brother who is now named the "Eight Wise King". The Jianghumeng who rode the horse knew that she shouldn't have told them Jin Yong's martial arts novels at that time. As a result, he looks sleek and elegant on the outside, but he has a chivalrous heart in his heart. This is what distinguishes him from others. the difference.

"Er Niang!" Lao Ba sighed, and then hurriedly walked to her side, "Fourth brother's Feige is sending letters!"

Wu Ya raised her eyebrows, and took the small note he handed over, she was a little surprised, the communication between him and the fourth child has always been done without her asking, how could he pass the note to her?Wu Ya gently unfolded the note, and saw a line of small characters: "Rehe was assassinated, the eighteenth brother bravely escorted him, father is healthy but younger brother died, mother's day is sad."

The word "death" made Wu Ya almost lose her temper. She didn't come to her senses for a long time. After all, it was a general trend of history, and no one could stop it. She sent Shiba to the palace to prevent him from dying To the outside of the Great Wall, but... After all, he still did not escape death!Before she could speak, Wu Ya's two lines of tears flowed down. Why couldn't she protect her child?
Wu Ya bit her lip, and it took a long time before she spoke: "The assassin...have you caught it?"

Lao Ba shook his head lightly: "I heard that the assassin took poison and killed himself when he saw that the assassination failed. There was nothing on him to prove his identity, but..." Lao Ba pondered for a moment, but did not speak.

Instead, Shisi, who had been following him all the time, took up the topic: "But according to what Huang Ama said, he should be suspicious of the crown prince!"

"Prince?" Wu Ya stared, "Prince wants to assassinate the emperor, how...how could he have such courage?"

"It's all just speculation, Er Niang, you haven't recovered yet, so don't worry about it. We brothers will definitely find out the truth about the death of the eighteenth brother!" Escaping from the Forbidden City, heading towards the mountains and rivers that he dreamed of, but now he still has a responsibility that he cannot shirk, and he is not a person who shirks responsibility.

Wu Ya nodded heavily: "I know, I believe in you!"

The pale light of the moon shone on the prairie, echoing the torches on the ground. Xuan Ye took Shiba's body all the way south, and set up camp on a prairie after nightfall.He was so angry that he gritted his teeth, who on earth dared to plot against him, dared to hurt him and Wu Ya's child!
Xuan Ye remembered that day when he and Shiba were practicing calligraphy in the tent, the assassin who rushed in suddenly stabbed at him without any explanation. Shiba was only so young, but he blocked his chest without even thinking about it, and took the bag for him. With a single sword strike, Xuan Ye couldn't help but his veins bulged out. How unqualified he, this Ama, not only failed to protect his own son, but let the seven-year-old eighteen elder brother protect him!
