The Favoured Medical Princess: 501 Prince

www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Sheng Chong's Daughter-in-law: The Medical Concubine!

The fifth prince is unwilling to return to the palace.

The leader of the imperial guards was obviously in a dilemma and was trying to persuade him. At this moment, the sound of servants saluting came from outside the house, and Nangong Mu strode in.

Nangong Mu had just returned from a break at the Imperial College. As soon as he entered the mansion, he heard that his son Nangong Xin was injured while trying to save the fifth prince. Fortunately, the injury was not serious and the imperial doctor had already come to see him.

Although he knew that his son was fine, Nangong Mu was still worried. He didn't relax until he saw Nangong Xin with his own eyes, and he was filled with fear. The **** scene when my son fell from the rockery when he was young came to mind again. If something happens to my son, how can my family bear it?

"See Your Highness the Fifth Prince." Nangong Mu composed himself and bowed to Han Lingfan first.

Han Lingfan did not dare to look directly into Nangong Mu's eyes, and said calmly: "Master Nangong, no courtesy."

Before Nangong Mu entered the house, he happened to hear the conversation between the leader of the royal guards and the fifth prince, so he respectfully said: "Your Highness, please listen to me. Your Highness staying in Nangong Mansion will only make the Emperor worry about His Highness. Being distracted; besides, even if Your Highness stays, it will not help the matter."

Of course Han Lingfan understands this, but Ah Xin was injured because of him. How could he leave Ah Xin and return to the palace alone!

"Cousin Fan!" Fu Yunyan and Han Lingfan were cousins, so they didn't have much scruples. They glared at him and said, "Axin is going back to the inner courtyard to recuperate. What are you doing here?! You If you are really sorry, you might as well go back to the palace and ask the emperor to find out the real culprit behind the scenes! Otherwise, Ah Xin’s injury will be in vain!”

Han Lingfan showed a thoughtful expression, and for a moment, his eyes suddenly opened up.

Things should be divided into priorities, and people should have a clear division of labor and perform their respective duties.

If I stay in Nangong Mansion, I can't do anything to help Axin. I am just a burden. But if I return to the palace, I can do more...

"Master Nangong, Cousin Liu Niang, what you said is true." Han Lingfan said cautiously, clasping his fists, "I will do my best to find the real culprit behind the scenes!"

The leader of the royal guards secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Axin, I will come to see you tomorrow... Lord Nangong, cousin Liu Niang, I will take my leave now."

Han Lingfan said goodbye to them one by one, and then left in a grand manner under the **** of the imperial guards.

The assassination of the fifth prince made Emperor Lei Lei furious. He first ordered the governor of Jingzhao to quickly investigate and deal with the matter, and then ordered the Jin Yiwei to cooperate with the Five Cities Military and Horse Division to search for suspicious people throughout the city.

Yin Jingzhao went to do it tremblingly.

However, the assassin is dead, and there is no evidence of his death. Witnesses on that day only saw the assassin suddenly appearing. Trying to trace where the assassin had been before and who he had seen was blank.

The governor of Jingzhao is not stupid. He naturally guessed that this assassin should be a carefully trained death warrior. Reminiscent of the recent mention of the establishment of a prince in the court, coupled with the fact that the emperor's several adult princes ... Jingzhao Governor felt that this job was really difficult to handle, but there were some things he couldn't say, so he could only act like he was working hard to investigate the case.

Basically, the people of the royal capital still don’t know what happened. They only saw that in the blink of an eye, it was like God suddenly changed. The royal capital suddenly entered the city under martial law. Officers, soldiers and uniformed guards could be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys. Patrolling everywhere... For a time, the city was filled with tremors, and the people were all in danger. They stayed behind closed doors and did not dare to interact with strangers casually, for fear of being implicated as an accomplice.

The Xungui Mansion was much more sensitive, so Nangong Mansion received several invitations in succession, all in the name of visiting Nangong Xin, but all the invitations were returned one by one, and Nangong Mansion directly closed the door to thank the guests and declined. All visits, even by in-laws.

This made many people disappointed, but many people were enlightened and couldn't help but secretly admire: This Nangong Mansion is indeed a century-old family, and the young master in the mansion has made such great achievements, but he is still unfazed by honor and disgrace, and takes it calmly. This time Nangong Xin saved the future prince, and the emperor and empress will definitely remember this contribution. I am afraid that Nangong Mansion will reach a higher level again...

This day was spent in a hustle and bustle.

That night, the lights in the royal study stayed on all night.

The emperor was a little depressed.

After hearing that the fifth prince was assassinated, he was shocked and angry. However, when he calmed down, he couldn't help but think a lot.

Xiao Wu is just a prince, a prince who has not yet opened a palace. Who is he disturbing? Who would want to go to all the trouble to assassinate him?

An answer couldn't help but emerge in the emperor's mind.

Xiaowu has been carrying fetal poison since he was born. He was weak since he was a child and grew up stumblingly. He almost died of poisoning that year. It took a lot of effort to raise him to such a big age. First, he was frightened by the horse, almost fell off the horse, and then was assassinated... Among his several children, it seems that this legitimate son is the only one who has always been in so many troubles.

Yes, Xiao Wu is the legitimate son, especially since he has been getting better and better in recent years. Prince Li has also been mentioned several times in the court, and even he has already acquiesced... So, has Xiao Wu become more of an eyesore?

So, his children couldn't bear it anymore... couldn't they even care about the brotherhood that blood is thicker than water?

The emperor shivered. For some reason, he felt that the imperial study was a little cold.

He was really lucky that Xiao Wu was fine this time, but just because Xiao Wu was fine, he was a little scared and afraid of knowing the truth.

He has four sons in total. He still remembers how each of them was still in their infancy. He remembers how they looked when they were just a little bit older and softly called "Father," and he still remembers how he held their hands. The way he taught them to write with his hands... He didn't want to admit that his son would be so cruel.

The emperor let out a long sigh, looking tired.

Eunuch Liu, who was waiting on the side, quietly stepped forward and gave the emperor a cup of hot tea.

Eunuch Liu has been with the emperor the longest and understands the emperor’s thoughts best. Even when the Queen Mother was poisoned last year, it was later found to be the fault of the eldest prince and his mother. However, because there was no evidence, the emperor did not investigate further and just ignored him from then on. Just the eldest prince.

He served an emperor who was easily soft-hearted.

"Huairen." The emperor suddenly spoke and said, "Maybe it's time for me to choose a heir apparent."

How could Eunuch Liu dare to respond to matters in the court? He just laughed a few times.

The emperor did not expect him to come up with any ideas. He seemed to be persuading himself and said: "After we have decided on the crown prince, and there is a distinction between monarch and minister, these children will surely settle down..." He narrowed his eyes. He murmured to himself, "Xiao Wu is getting older. It's time for him to learn to serve as a director of the court... and then choose a powerful in-law for Xiao Wu... In fact, the Nangong family is pretty good, but unfortunately, the girls from the Nangong family seem to be... The engagement has been arranged."

Speaking of this, the emperor was a little frightened, "Axin is also a good boy, thanks to him today..."

Eunuch Liu responded and said, "This is also the destiny of His Majesty the Fifth Highness."

The emperor fell silent, and the imperial study was quiet. Only the lights were dancing slightly. After an unknown period of time, the emperor finally spoke and said: "Huairen, go to Nangong Mansion tomorrow morning and tell me the story." An imperial edict..."

Eunuch Liu bowed and responded: "I obey the order."

The emperor stayed up all night, rubbed his forehead tiredly, and asked: "What time is it now?"

Eunuch Liu looked at the engraving and said, "...Your Majesty, it's half past midnight."

Mao Shizheng is the time for morning dynasty.

In the morning, all officials knew that the emperor was in a bad mood. Except for some important matters, he would not do anything else if he could. Therefore, the morning was dismissed very quickly.

After the dispersion of the dynasty, Eunuch Liu immediately went to Nangong Mansion.

Nangong Qin and Nangong Mu hurried back from the Yamen after hearing the news.

Gonggong Liu was accompanied by Nangong Sheng to drink tea. After everyone in the house had arrived and the incense case was ready, he announced the decree:

"By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict: Mrs. Fu, the wife of the second son of the Nangong Mansion, is intelligent, agile, dignified and virtuous, cautious and attentive, has a smart temperament, is courteous and courteous, has an elegant appearance, is restrained and soft at heart, is yonghe and pure. , it is appropriate to be granted the title of Zhengsanpin County Lord, with the title of Kaiyang. I appreciate this!"

The decree announced by Eunuch Liu is confusing.

It was Nangong Xin who rescued the fifth prince yesterday, but he rewarded Fu Yunyan. The reward was not gold, silver and jewels, but an extremely rare title. You know, the title of Dayu is rare, and even the prince's legitimate daughter will only be granted the title of princess when she gets married.

Fu Yunyan's expression was a little subtle. She listened to the decree in silence and respectfully raised her hands above her head to receive the decree: "I thank the Lord for your kindness!"

Fu Yunyan handed the imperial edict to the maid at the side, and helped Lin to stand up. Aunt Liu quietly stuffed a red envelope into Eunuch Liu, and sent away all the servants who came to convey the edict with a smile.

After receiving the order, the people in each room dispersed. Nangong Mu, Lin and Fu Yunyan went to Nangong Xin's place together.

Nangong Xin could not go to receive the order because he was recovering from his injuries, but the news that Fu Yunyan had been granted the title of County Lord had spread throughout the Nangong Mansion in the blink of an eye, so naturally some servants ran to inform him.

Nangong Xin, who was sitting on the bed, still looked a little haggard. After bowing to her parents, she held Fu Yunyan's hand with joy and said, "Liu Niang! You are the county king."

Looking at the beautiful couple, Mrs. Lin felt very happy.

Her son has grown up and has a family, and he will only get better and better in the future... Thinking of the past, her eyes felt a little sore, but she didn't want her family to see anything strange, so she quickly took a deep breath and calmed down.

There was no joy on Fu Yunyan's face, and he said dullly: "It must be because you saved my fifth cousin, Ah Xin, that Uncle Huang gave me the title of county king."

Nangong Xin thought for a while and said, "But the emperor will never use titles to reward casually..."

"No, that should be the case." Nangong Mu suddenly sighed and said slightly disappointedly, "...Axin, you have to be mentally prepared, what happened yesterday may end up being nothing."

Seeing that the eyes of the three Lins were focused on him, Nangong Mu explained to them in detail: "Although Axin saved the fifth prince this time, he was not seriously injured. It stands to reason that the emperor will reward him with some gold and silver. That's all, but he gave Liu Niang a county prince. We, the disciples of Nangong Mansion, have always taken the imperial examination to get a career, and Axin Jinke will also end up. Meng En is a great favor to Xungui Mansion, but For our Nangong Mansion, it's a bit nondescript. If Axin gets the favor, will he still need to take the imperial examination? How will his future career be? So the emperor gave this favor to Liu Niang."

He paused and said with a wry smile: "The emperor's grace is not equal to Axin's contribution, which means that the emperor may not give justice to Axin. That's why he gave Liu Niang A county prince as compensation."

"Your Majesty, you don't want to investigate anymore?" Nangong Xin widened his eyes and asked, "Wouldn't it be very dangerous for His Majesty the Fifth Prince in the future?"

Nangong Mu was slightly startled. He thought his son might be unconvinced, but unexpectedly, he became worried about the fifth prince.

Facing Nangong Xin’s worried gaze, Nangong Mu followed up and said: "The emperor will definitely investigate, but that is just to the point, and will not go into details. After all, no matter who did it, once it is exposed, Even the emperor can't protect him."

The emperor felt sorry for the fifth prince, and he also felt sorry for his other sons, so he wanted to make peace with him.

"That's good." Nangong Xin breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and a comfortable smile appeared on his face, "As long as the emperor finds out who the real culprit is behind the scenes, His Highness the Fifth Prince will be safe."

Nangong Mu patted the back of his hand. Even though Axin's illness had healed, his character was still as pure.

However, the children of the Nangong family will enter the official career sooner or later. For Axin, this is also an opportunity for him to learn and understand that officialdom is not just "black" and "white". . Therefore, Nangong Mu would explain and teach in detail.

"Father, mother, Ah Xin." The more Fu Yunyan understood the emperor's intentions, the more uncomfortable he felt, and said dullly, "I don't want this county king."

"Liu Niang." Nangong Mu said solemnly, "Thunder, rain and dew are all your kindness."

If the county monarch does not accept this, it will only make the emperor think that the Nangong family has complaints about this matter. In this way, the emperor's guilt towards A Xin will not only disappear, but also he will feel that he is ungrateful.

Fu Yunyan stood up, bowed and said: "My daughter-in-law takes this lesson."

Nangong Mu comforted his wife and children again, and asked his wife not to spread the news about Nangong Xin's injury to Southern Xinjiang, so as not to worry Nangong Yue. Southern Xinjiang is thousands of miles away from the royal capital. No matter how worried she is, Nangong Yue will not be able to come back, which will only make her uneasy.

Nangong Mu then went to the outer courtyard. This matter related to Nangong Mansion, and he still needed to discuss it with Nangong Qin Haosheng.

The news that Fu Yunyan was granted the title of County Lord spread in the royal capital that day, but the Nangong family still closed its doors to thank guests because of Nangong Xin's injury, and no one could find out the news from their house.

The entire kingdom was under clouds. The emperor gave a secret order to the commander of the Royal Guards, Shi Lu Huaining, and ordered him to give him a result within ten days. Then he summoned Xuan Pingbo into the imperial study.

In the morning court the next day, Xuan Pingbo asked Han Lingfan, the fifth son of the emperor, to be crowned prince.

In the past few years, memorials for the establishment of a prince have been submitted every once in a while. Therefore, everyone did not think anything strange about the memorial of Marquis Xuanping, thinking that it would be suppressed as usual, but they did not expect...

In the Jinluan Palace, the emperor's voice said loudly: "Accurate performance."

The whole court was in an uproar!

……

The chaos in the royal capital has not yet affected Southern Xinjiang, which is thousands of miles away.

At half past nine, it was still early, so Nangong Yue woke up and raised her hand to shake the small copper bell beside the bed.

Baihui and Queer heard the movement in the inner room and immediately walked in with the new clothes they had prepared.

Today is the birthday of the King of Zhennan. As the Crown Princess, Nangong Yue naturally wants to dress more formally and festively. She specially chose a Sichuan brocade double-breasted jacket with gold buttons and peony patterns, and a pink pleated skirt with stitching underneath. , with a fallen horse bun on her head and a golden phoenix with five phoenixes and pearls facing the sun, she looks bright, elegant and generous.

Nangong Yue had just finished dressing up when Xiao Fei came.

She wore a primrose yellow thin satin long gown today, and she put on light makeup on her little face that usually did not use makeup. She was elegant and beautiful. The two stood together, one as bright as a peony, the other as elegant as a hibiscus. They set off each other and are eye-catching.

Nangong Yue invited Xiao Fei to have breakfast together, and then went to the Gui Pu Hall, the main hall of the inner courtyard of the palace, to welcome the guests.

In the past, Nangong Yue’s small banquet and hairpin ceremony were held in the name of Bixiaotang, and the reception was also from the East Street gate of Bixiaotang. But it is different today. Because it is the 40th birthday of King Zhennan, the palace is grand. Open the front door to welcome guests.

At this moment, more than a dozen vermilion-lacquered sash fans and windows on both sides of Guiputang Hall were all open, bright and transparent.

For today’s birthday banquet, Gui Pu Hall has been rearranged. The host’s seat is still occupied by two rosewood Taishi chairs. The chairs on both sides of the hall have been replaced by rosewood carved wreath chairs. There are a pair of rosewood carved armchairs in the corner. There is a large vase with green enamel paintings and branch patterns, and a red wool carpet is spread in the middle of the marble floor. It is not luxurious, but it is extraordinary.

Not long after Nangong Yue and Xiao Fei arrived at Gui Putang, Mrs. Wei and fifth girl Xiao Rongyu also came.

Ms. Wei was also dressed up carefully today. She was dressed in a ginger-yellow brocade pattern all over the ground, with branches and flowers on her legs. She was wearing a regular crescent moon bun, a beaded hairpin on her head, and a fresh magnolia flower pinned to her temple. She looked so charming. As beautiful as an orchid, elegant and decent, but not so aggressive that it takes away Nangong Yue's charm.

Xiao Rongyu combed her hair with two round curly hair. She was very cute. She wore a rose-colored round-neck thin forged turban, a golden necklace around her neck, and a white jade necklace hanging on her chest. The lock swayed slightly as she moved.

"The Crown Princess, eldest lady." Mrs. Wei smiled slightly and greeted Nangong Yue and Xiao Feifu politely.

After that, Xiao Rongyu also blessed his body in a decent manner, and said with a sweet voice: "Sister-in-law, hello, sister-in-law, hello."

Seeing an innocent and cute female doll always makes people feel better unconsciously. Nangong Yue smiled with her eyes crooked and said: "Hello, Sister Yu."

The little girl's intuition was the most acute and simple. She immediately sensed Nangong Yue's kindness and smiled even sweeter.

Nangong Yue said with a smile: "Sister Yu, Mr. Li has taught you these two days. Do you like it?"

A few days ago, the King of Zhennan asked Nangong Yue to help Xiao Rongyu find a female teacher to initiate her education. Nangong Yue asked Mrs. Tian to help introduce a Mr. Li who had previously provided education to the Tian family girl. He started teaching Xiao Rongyu from the day before yesterday. I've been taking classes for two days. But Xiao Rongyu was still young after all, so she just chose an hour every day to read with her husband.

Xiao Rongyu nodded vigorously: "Sister-in-law, sir is very good. He has been teaching me to read "Qionglin Preschool" for the past two days..."

Nangong Yue said with a smile: "Sister Yu, can you recite a few sentences to me?"

Xiao Rongyu hurriedly put his hands behind his back and recited in a sweet voice: "Chaos has just begun, and the universe has begun to be established. The light and clear air that floats up is the sky, and the heavy and turbid air that condenses down is the earth... What's behind The teacher hasn’t taught you yet.”

Nangong Yue touched her head with an itchy hand and said, "Sister Yu's memorization is really good."

Xiao Rongyu smiled happily, revealing the pear dimples on her cheeks.

Ms. Wei looked at Xiao Rongyu with a smile. She asked her grandma to observe Mr. Li carefully when he was teaching, and she had a good impression of Mr. Li. The first half of Mr. Li's life was not very good. After getting married, her husband died young and left an only son. The only son finally passed the exam, but unfortunately he got sick and died. She brought up two more grandchildren. Now the eldest grandson has won the exam. It can be seen that Mr. Li is very good at raising children. Although Mr. Li's life is not going well, he does not blame others and is wise and cautious... Compared to Ye Yili, there is a huge difference!

My daughter will definitely benefit a lot from the enlightenment and guidance of Mr. Li.

Mrs. Wei was even more grateful to Nangong Yue. After they exchanged greetings, several other girls from the Xiao family also came one after another and stayed in the Gui Pu Hall waiting to welcome guests.

At a quarter of the hour, a little maid wearing a blue-green dark-striped gown ran over and announced, "The Crown Princess, my eldest aunt and my aunt Qiao are here."

Everyone in the hall was a little surprised. The time written on the post sent by the palace was Si hour. They did not expect Mrs. Qiao to come so early.

On the side, Mrs. Wei's face condensed, and she glanced at Nangong Yue with some worry.

A few days ago, after Qiao Ruolan came to the palace, she was almost sent to the Mingqing Temple by the prince when she returned. It was Mrs. Qiao who persuaded her to change the Mingqing Temple into the Shuyao Women's Convent. Today is a big day, and ordinary people naturally dare not cause trouble on such a day, but they cannot measure this aunt by the standards of ordinary people.

Nangong Yue drank tea calmly and calmly, and her calm demeanor made Wei's heart calm down.
