Chapter 160 is just to see his funny chapter!
"How is Ting'er?"
Prince Jiajing hurried to Ningxin Courtyard, and when he saw Li Zhenting sitting there quietly with a bloody face, his heart broke.
From childhood to adulthood, Ting'er had always been his pride, and he had always trained him as the heir apparent. But now something like this had happened, disrupting all his plans...
"Qing'er, Ting'er's illness can definitely be cured, right? Father, please..."
Prince Jiajing had never begged anyone for anything. As the ruler of a country, he was always the one who asked for help. He could get whatever he wanted done simply by giving an order. But now, if it meant returning Ting'er's health, he would gladly sacrifice his life for it!
If possible, he would like to go back to yesterday. He would rather the fetus in Concubine De's belly die than let Ting'er encounter such an accident!
"Father, I have asked Bai Lianyi to find Ancestor Xuanyun. With the Ancestor here, he will definitely recover faster..."
Fang Qingqing spoke in a low voice, worried that Li Zhenting would hear her and become suspicious.
If she was powerless, then there would be no chance of recovery. If he himself lost heart, even if Patriarch Xuanyun arrived, he would be powerless.
Prince Jiajing was stunned for a moment, then he understood everything. He suppressed his grief and spoke to Fang Qingqing.
"Qing'er and Ting'er should live in Ningxin Courtyard for the time being."
Now that Ting'er is in this condition, he really doesn't feel comfortable letting them return to Prince Yu's Mansion to live.
Furthermore, because of what happened last night, the people were talking about it a lot, and some people with ulterior motives exaggerated the story. After many people talked about it, it became a version of events in which Prince Yu and Princess Yu indiscriminately killed innocent people.
Now, another group of ignorant common people gathered in front of the Dali Department of the Imperial Palace and beat drums to protest their grievances, claiming that if Prince Yu and Princess Yu were not brought to justice, they would never leave, and would never give in even if they were beaten and expelled, and would fight to the death with Prince Yu's Mansion.
What made Prince Jiajing even more troubled was that Prime Minister Cao came running to report in a panic early in the morning that Fang Yuming had gathered a group of poor people to beat drums at the gate of the palace to complain yesterday, and Li Zhenting had directly tied him and another leader up and put them in jail.
I had thought that today, Prince Yu and Prime Minister Cao would ask the Dali Temple to help interrogate them and find out who was behind this.
But what no one expected was that Fang Yuming actually died that night! His head was chopped off, and the method used by the Prince Yu and his wife to kill him was almost identical to the rumored murder method!
What's even more terrible is that another person who was imprisoned in the prison with Fang Yuming, an old man who claimed to be the Fang family's housekeeper, has been insisting that the person who came to the prison and chopped off Fang Yuming's head last night was from Prince Yu's Mansion!
This incident caused a huge sensation, and public outrage boiled over for a time, so the Dali Temple was unable to initiate an investigation.
If Prince Jiajing had not come forward to guarantee it, I am afraid that the Dali Temple would have arrested Prince Yu and Princess Yu and put them in jail to await trial!
If they were to stay in Ningxin Courtyard, Chang Tianli, who was always known for his impartiality and incorruptibility in the Dali Temple, would not be able to come and take them away.
While Li Zhenting was sitting in the room resting, Prince Jiajing and Fang Qingqing walked out of the yard and told her what had happened.
Judging from the personalities of these two people, they would never stay in the palace unless there was a reason.
"Father, this matter isn't that simple. Qing'er and Prince Yu rushed to the palace overnight yesterday, but how did they end up being ambushed along the way?"
"The prison where Fang Yuming is being held is a sky-high prison. How can one get in without some skills?"
"Furthermore, thanks to Fang Yuming's instigation, big-character posters insulting me have appeared all over Kyoto. Their purpose is obvious: to do everything they can to incite public resentment and try to get rid of me with the help of the people."
Fang Qingqing laughed coldly.
He harmed Prince Yu and damaged her reputation. Just based on these two pieces of evidence, once she finds out who is behind this, she will have to kill him!
"Qing'er, I'm worried that Madam Jianguo and Xin'er might have met with something unforeseen. I've already arranged for a team of guards to protect Ruyi Garden. Please just focus on helping Ting'er diagnose his illness. Prince Yu's Mansion is also heavily guarded, so no one will be able to break in..."
When Fang Qingqing heard this, she quickly bent down and kowtowed to express her gratitude.
It was really difficult for Prince Jiajing. As the king of a country, he had endless things to do in the court and the harem, and it was difficult for him to consider everything so thoroughly.
"Qing'er, get up quickly. You're too heavy now, so you don't need to go through all these formalities anymore..."
"The Dali Temple has already begun investigating this matter, starting with the Fang family. As soon as there's any news, Eunuch Zhao will notify Qing'er immediately. Please don't be impatient, just be patient and accompany Ting'er..."
Fang Qingqing nodded gratefully. She had already sent a pigeon to inform Patriarch Xuanyun of the news. Before Patriarch Xuanyun arrived, her most important task was to figure out how to save Li Zhenting's face and eyes, and to calm his emotions in time.
After all, he went from being the Prince Yu who was relied upon by everyone to the notorious and seriously injured Prince Yu. He was not injured on the battlefield, but was injured into his current state by the sneak attack on the Mingye Palace of the Xiao Kingdom. I am afraid that he cannot accept such a gap in his heart.
After Prince Jiajing left, she took advantage of the time when Li Zhenting closed his eyes to rest and did not need her care, and returned to the space to create a pure gold mask.
The golden mask was made exactly according to the size of Li Zhenting's face, and could perfectly cover the scars on his face.
Before his eyes recover, he can't stay in the house all the time without going out. Besides, going out for a walk can always relieve his depressed mood.
When she finished making the mask and came out of the space, she found that Li Zhenting was nowhere to be seen.
She was shocked. He was blind and unfamiliar with the layout of Ningxin Courtyard. What would he do if he went to the wrong place?
In the Imperial Garden.
"Who is he..."
"It's so scary! Why is he so ugly? Quick, get him out of here!"
Two boys, about seven or eight years old, were playing and eating snacks with several palace maids. They were so fat that they had difficulty running. Suddenly, they saw Li Zhenting with a hideous scar on his face. After screaming a few times, they bent down, picked up small stones on the ground and threw them at Li Zhenting.
If Li Zhenting had not had excellent hearing and dodged in time, he would have been injured by the stone.
"Oh my! Prince Yu is usually so busy with his affairs, how come he has the leisure to stroll around the Imperial Garden today? Oh my god! What happened to Prince Yu's face? How did his face turn out like a ghost? Did Princess Yu beat him?"
With a smug smile on her face, Lu Shufang walked over accompanied by a palace maid, raised her voice and said a few words, then ordered the palace maid to hit the two young men who threw stones at Li Zhenting hard in the face.
"The Third and Fourth Princes are so rude! Prince Yu is blind and can't see a thing, yet you actually bully him! It's one thing for you two to not study and spend your days eating, drinking, and having fun, but you actually bully Prince Yu!"
The smile on Lu Shufang's face was not concealed at all.
Of course she wasn't just passing by. She knew last night that Prince Yu was seriously injured, and she came here on purpose to laugh at him!
