Lord, don't be afraid, the princess is not angry

Chapter 178
To be honest, although it is vegetable porridge, it is much more delicious than white porridge without salt.The vegetable porridge in Prince Ping's Mansion also changes every day. Yesterday it was porridge with pickled vegetables and dried beans, and today it was porridge with vegetables and mushrooms.After Yuan Tai got the porridge, Ben hesitated for a moment, and then he saw that King Ping drank a bowl and went to add another bowl, so he finished his own.

After eating, he swallowed his saliva and stared at the porridge in the porcelain basin.

"Would you like another bowl?" Zhuhua asked nicely.

He shook his head, looked at King Ping again, and asked, "Uncle Wang, can my nephew bring some porridge to the palace tomorrow for my younger sister? She has been arguing for the past few days and doesn't want to drink plain porridge."

These days they drank thin porridge, and they were tired of it for a long time, and the porridge was not full at all. He could bear it, but his sister cried and said she was hungry.Neither of them had ever been hungry before, and it was only now that they realized how uncomfortable it was to be hungry.

His five-year-old sister also clamored for snacks after seeing the younger sister stealing snacks.He couldn't find anyone to get it. After his biological mother committed suicide, the people around him were replaced by others. He could only give up his white porridge to his sister in order to make her feel full.Later, the younger sister suddenly complained of a stomachache, so he hurried to call for someone, and happened to meet King Ping, who didn't let him into the house to see his sister after he went to check, and didn't know how she was doing now.

After that, King Ping took him to a small room to stay, and took him back to Prince Ping's mansion after dark.He didn't know what happened, but he was still wondering if he didn't need to kneel to the spirit tonight. He didn't need to kneel to his father, so could he kneel to his biological mother?He hasn't seen his mother's body yet, maybe others lied to him, his mother is not dead.

Zhuhua's face froze when she heard that, she turned her head to look at King Ping, who hesitated for a moment, then supported his shoulder and said, "No need, your sister is with your father and mother now, she doesn't need to Eat this again."

Yuan Tai stared at him blankly, pushed his hand away forcefully, and shouted: "You're lying, I'm going to find my sister, and I'm going to find my mother."

As he said that, he stood up from the stool and ran out like flying, but fortunately the servants guarding the door stopped him.He couldn't push their hands away, so he kicked them with his feet angrily, but they refused to let him go.At this moment, King Ping also chased him, and hugged him from behind.

"Tai'er, don't make trouble. I will take you into the palace tomorrow. You will see your father and king, as well as your mother and sister. But you can't make trouble. Don't let them worry about you in heaven."

"Ah..." Yuan Tai didn't listen to him at all, and yelled in his arms, crying to go back to the palace.It's just that he was a child after all, and he couldn't break free from King Ping's arms in the end.

Zhuhua watched from the side and didn't come forward, she still had to express some emotions.When Yuan Tai was tired, he fell asleep, and King Ping sent someone to watch outside his house, lest he wake up in the middle of the night and make trouble again.Fortunately, after he woke up, he was obedient. When King Ping came to call him in the morning, he was already sitting on the bed, not crying or making trouble.

"Uncle Wang, can I really see my mother and sister today?"

"Yes." King Ping patted his head, took his hand to eat something and left the door.

Zhuhua watched with some emotion, and followed them to the uterus to kneel to the spirit.The places where the female relatives and the male kneel to the spirit are separated, and she saw Yuan Tai brought back by Xiao Lin outside the palace city at night, his eyes were more swollen and more silent than in the morning.Zhuhua secretly sighed, and helped him to sit silently all the way.She also seemed unable to do anything for the child other than arrange a meal.At night, Yuan Taifa had a fever, so Zhuhua could only go to his room to take care of him.

"Just leave this kind of thing to the servants, why do you have to go in person?"

"This kind of thing is different from doing it as a relative." Zhuhua said, and squeezed his shoulder comfortingly, "You worked so hard for the case, so I have to do something."

"I worked hard so that you wouldn't have to work hard."

"Yes, I appreciate it." Zhuhua smiled helplessly. I don't know if this person has learned from Ji Wang, and now he is more slick.When there was no one around, she secretly asked, "The poison in his food is not from the Crown Princess, is it?"

King Ping nodded, hugged her comfortingly, and said, "Don't worry about such things, there will always be a day when the truth will be found out."

She was not worried, but curious.Zhuhua leaned against his arms, and sighed deeply, "But why, the prince is dead. She didn't do anything when he was alive, why did she do anything after he died? It doesn't make sense?"

It is unreasonable, there is no reason to talk about some things, otherwise there would not be so many injustices in this world.Prince Ping sighed secretly, followed her back comfortingly, and said after a long time: "It doesn't make sense."

Zhuhua also knows that there are unreasonable things in the world, what she says doesn't matter, the facts are the facts, and they will not change for anyone's likes and dislikes.She pursed her lips, then raised her head suddenly and said, "Let Geng Jieqing do the detective work, that's what he's good at."

Even if she had said this before, she still wanted to say it again.King Ping nodded, it was because of him that King Ping was not worried.In order to investigate this case, Geng Jieqing was appointed as a third-rank imperial walker, and he was allowed to enter the palace to meet the saint at any time. He reported many things about this case to the saint.Besides King Ping, the Holy Majesty also sent a servant to follow the two of them.

In the past few days, the two of them asked the imperial doctor who had seen the crown prince's illness in the palace, the people who visited the crown prince in the east palace, and the suspicious person in the crown prince's uterus. Quite a few, but none of these people seemed to have tampered with.As for the reason for the prince's sudden death, it was found out three days before the prince's death. It was caused by someone changing one of the medicines the prince was drinking, and making it conflict with the pills the prince took daily.The relevant personnel had been arrested and interrogated severely a few days earlier, but they were all trusted by the crown prince, even if Yang Chengjian interrogated them, he couldn't find anything.In fact, he had a suspect in his heart, but it was just a suspicion, if it was true, he had to listen to Geng Jieqing's investigation first.

Because of this incident, Chang'an is now very turbulent. Even if the palace has been saying that the prince died of a sudden illness, everyone is worried, waiting to see if someone will be unlucky first.People from Zhongguohou's mansion had all entered the palace to salute at the prince's funeral. Cheng Dashan saw that King Ping had been looking for a chance to talk to him, but he couldn't find it. The most important thing is that there is a reason for missing items in the palace, but all the ministers in the court know that this is an excuse, even Cheng Dashan knows it.

After the crown prince had been inactive for seven days, the lords of the various families also returned home, so he sent someone to Ping Wang's mansion to inquire, knowing that everything in the mansion was fine, he was half relieved.As for King Ping's errand, Cheng Dashan wasn't that worried. The Holy One is not very old. I don't know if it's because of the resumption of martial arts these years, but his complexion has become better. Who can know what will happen after that?

Regarding the matter of the Crown Princess poisoning the Crown Prince's heirs, the Crown Princess readily agreed.She and Concubine Xiao secretly had a grudge for a long time, and after the crown prince passed away, she found that Concubine Xiao looked suspicious. She didn't think about it at the time, and she didn't hear about it from Concubine Xiao's personal maid until after Concubine Xiao hanged herself. Concubine Xiao once said that she had avenged her father and was unwilling to live.

Concubine Xiao's father's official position was not high, and he was originally a fourth-rank Hanlin.One day, the prince went to Daxiangguo Temple for an outing, and met Miss Xiao who was also molested by a dude, and the two became attached to each other.Without knowing the identity of the crown prince, Miss Xiao made a lifelong commitment with him. When she learned that she was selected as the crown prince's side concubine, she even mentioned to the crown prince that she would elope with him. The technical secondary school doted on her alone, and he did.It was Concubine Xiao who felt deeply guilty and often advised the prince to favor others.

However, the relationship between her and the Crown Princess was not very good. The Crown Prince mentioned to her more than once that he would make Yuan Tai the crown prince in the future.These words are actually a bit outrageous, as if he was looking forward to Yang Chengjian's death, so he told her in between the beds, although the Crown Princess has no way of knowing, but from the attitude of the Crown Prince, it can be seen that the Crown Prince doesn't like him Yuan Heng, the eldest son of the eldest son, often reprimanded him for trivial matters.However, Yuan Heng was indeed too naughty, he often beat and scolded his servants just because he was young, and even beat a bastard of the Wang family outside.

Although Wang Jue, the original servant, has retired, his disciples and descendants of the family are still officials in the court, and there is also a granddaughter who has become Princess Jiang. These people will not let Yuan Heng beat the Wang family silently.This incident was originally caused by King Jiang's suppression of the prince in the court at that time. The prince wanted to endure it and let it go, but his son had a violent temper.As a prince, his attitude should not be too low sometimes, and this incident later caused a scolding war between the ministers of the DPRK and China. It was the Holy Majesty who asked Yuan Heng to apologize.

Of course the crown prince would not like such a cheating son.In contrast, Yuan Tai, who is smart and modest, has become his most beloved son, and he is also the most important link in maintaining the relationship between him and Concubine Xiao, because Concubine Xiao's father was implicated in the Zhen Guohou case and died in prison middle.At that time, side concubine Xiao cried and cried for a long time because of the prince's failure to save her father. After her father's death, she even quarreled and ignored him. If it wasn't for her son's future, she might have continued to quarrel until the prince's heart ached. alienated.

For this matter, the crown prince doted on her even more, and promised her that he would rectify her father's name in the future.However, this matter may be very difficult. After all, the case of Zhen Guohou's mansion was personally tried by Yang Chengjian, and Xiao Fangfei's father did occupy a lot of land with Zhen Guohou. There have been many life lawsuits, and even Zhen Guohou's ambitions, his crimes may be hard to escape.As far as the crown prince was concerned, it was a help for him to die in prison. If he hadn't died early, he might not even be able to keep side concubine Xiao.

It's just that this is definitely not the case in Concubine Xiao's heart. From her maid, the Crown Princess learned that Concubine Xiao has always been bitter about the prince's failure to save her father. If it wasn't because she became the concubine, her How could her father be deceived by Zhen Guohou to occupy those lands, and she also suspected that his father committed suicide in prison had something to do with the prince.The day before his father committed suicide, the prince visited him in prison.For this reason, side concubine Xiao wanted to kill the prince.In the past few months, the crown prince fell ill, and it was not her who was serving him, but another side concubine. The side concubine Xiao became even more jealous, and finally committed a treasonous crime.

This is what the Crown Princess asked from the side concubine Xiao's personal maid, but King Ping and Geng Jieqing didn't hear it with their own ears, because the maid committed suicide not long after the incident happened, fearing a heavier punishment.They found the medicine that poisoned the crown prince from the hidden compartment in Concubine Xiao's house, but what if the maid teamed up with outsiders to frame Concubine Xiao?
