MTL - The Reborn Noble Daughter

Chapter 486 486. Trust

“As for Mr. Su, you already knew that Xiao Yunli led the rebels into the city, why didn’t you report it!”

Su Cheng knelt down and pretended to be innocent.

"Your Highness, that's what I made up. Mu Qian and I have never been out of the city, so how can we go hunting? We met them by chance!"

The prince was shocked, but it was true that the Ninth Prince was extremely itchy just now. What was going on?

Su Cheng explained immediately.

"I went to the doctor to prepare it a few days ago. My dog ​​had some rashes that couldn't be cured for a long time. The doctor said that we should simply fight poison with poison, so he prescribed this medicine. Since he first came in, all his thoughts have been on fighting with poison. The others were facing each other, and I quietly approached and sprinkled a little on his sleeve."

 “What about the people outside?”

 “I don’t know that.”

 So everyone looked at Xiao Muqian. He was the only one who walked in from the outside. He might know.

Xiao Muqian thought for a moment before saying, "Rush? Maybe it's because we were far away. Maybe everyone heard it wrong. That was the sound of the guards disarming themselves."

 At this point, everyone realized that it was a big mistake.

However, the prince was immediately impressed by Su Cheng, a person who was not afraid of danger and could come up with crooked ideas.

What's more, his background is not bad, he is the son of the dignified General Su, but his reputation has not been very good in recent years.

So I thought about recruiting him as a helper, but of course this was still a second thought.

 At the moment, it is more important to dispose of the body first.

 The reason why it is hung at the door of the vegetable market is to warn the world and to prevent them from committing suicide again.

The prince doesn’t want to do anything in the future, just keep an eye on these people who may come back for revenge at any time.

The rope is tied around the neck, and the whole person is hung on the pole. Even if he is not stabbed to death or knocked to death, he will be hanged or sunburned to death.

It lasted for a long time, and many people did not dare to walk through the door of the market. They were afraid of seeing this **** scene and were so frightened that they could not sleep for several days.

As soon as he went to court on the second day, the prince gave an overview of what happened yesterday, and brothers Feng Jinxu and Feng Jinlin did the rest.

They came back to life one by one, dragged their broken legs to court, and produced a lot of evidence.

 One is Xinke Tanhua, a third-rank official who was personally conferred by His Majesty. He has made great achievements at a young age.

 It made so many people jealous, but no one refuted or questioned what they said.

 In fact, at this time, even if a three-year-old child said this, no one would question it, unless he didn’t want to live anymore.

The crown prince's ascension to the throne was justified. At this time, both his former rivals were dead. They were even more powerful and they were not fools. How could they choose this time to question the Feng family and the prince?

Ever since, everyone felt that the Feng family was really lucky, and another character was about to appear.

As expected, the prince already had the power to supervise the country, and now that Emperor Qi was seriously ill, he could naturally handle the promotion and transfer of officials.

Because Feng Jinxu reported on the private salt land in Qingzhou, the Sixth Prince and Concubine Liu also had merits, and he was injured for this, so the prince directly promoted him to the Metropolitan Procuratorate and served as Zuodu Censor.

This is the position of a third-rank official in the capital, which is half a rank higher than Feng Jinlin's third-rank foreign official position.

The Feng family is indeed an honorable family. Even though there is no daughter to marry into the harem, they can still be so proud. The speed at which they rise to the top is simply amazing.

 However, this is all due to luck.

One deals with the corruption case of the Water Transportation Department that has been troublesome for many years in Jinling City, and the other involves the conspiracy case of the Sixth Prince's occupation of private salt land and collusion with foreign thieves.

No matter which one of them participated in it, it was not easy to escape unscathed. What's more, both of their brothers were involved, and they got the prince's attention because of it. They were not unlucky. Also promoted were Su Cheng and Xiao Muqian.

Su Cheng suddenly became the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard, Lin Wang's first subordinate.

 Xiao Muqian took over Lin Wang's former position and became the commander of the Gyeonggi Division, earning a lot of face for both Prince Kang's Palace and the Bai family!

  Xiao Muqian had just gotten married, and besides, his wife was the eldest granddaughter of the Bai family, so it was naturally difficult for outsiders to interfere.

But Su City has become a hot spot, and people who used to avoid it are now rushing to attack it.

This made Mrs. Su extremely happy. She was so picky in the back house that she couldn't keep her mouth shut. She bluntly said that her son had finally given the Su family some breathing space.

Of course this is something for later.

Now that the overall situation has been decided, the queen serving Emperor Qi in Changle Palace is becoming increasingly worried.

 At first, they thought about secretly tampering with Emperor Qi, but now that two princes have died one after another, the outside world suddenly has a lot more ambiguity about the prince.

If Emperor Qi also dies at this time, I'm afraid rumors will fly all over the sky.

 So to ensure that he counts one day at a time, it is best to wait until after the New Year is over and the wind noise outside has subsided.

 But the situation of Emperor Qi was not optimistic. The people at the Imperial Hospital tried their best to say that they would not be able to survive the winter.

The Queen is now gray with worry. If she had known that so many things would happen, she would not have given Emperor Qi the Green Flame Flower in the first place.

　Now we have really shot ourselves in the foot and are in a dilemma.

Emperor Qi was in the main hall of Changle Palace. He originally wanted to move the palace back to Chengtai Palace, but the imperial doctor directly said that he could not move because if evil spirits entered his body, he would be unable to recover.

Therefore, the concubines in the harem would come to Changle Palace every day to attend to the illness and comfort the "sad" queen.

 Among them, Concubine Shu was the most diligent.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has ordered the Dingwang Army in the southwest to organize and conduct drills in the past few days. I am afraid that there will be another disaster.

 She came from the country of Tingli and was originally a foreigner. She still has some foothold in the harem now entirely because of Emperor Qi's favor and attachment to the queen.

If Emperor Qi dies, then her good days will probably come to an end.

Qing Liguo sent her here without even thinking about taking her back, so she would either die of old age in the palace or become a concubine buried under Emperor Qi.

 Therefore, the only thing to do now is to please and flatter the queen in order to gain stability in the future.

Thinking of this, the relief on his face is somewhat sincere.

"My dear wife, please take care of yourself. This harem is still waiting for you to decide. If you fall down because of taking care of His Majesty, what will we do?"

In the palace now, as Concubine Shu said, it is the queen who makes the decision.

 Those who have children are naturally not afraid, but those who do not have children are not afraid of being tired at all.

They just hope to leave a good impression on the Queen. If His Majesty really dies, they can have a way to survive.

After Concubine Shu said this, several other concubines also echoed.

The queen was feeling depressed now, and hearing their gentle compliments relieved her a little.

“Hey, if your Majesty has a bad day, it’s hard for me to decide what to do. Seeing that the Chinese New Year is only two months away, I’m afraid that your Majesty will..."
