Chapter 284 Xia Yueguang, No Regrets
Chapter 284 Xia Yueguang, No Regrets
It seems that Song Wancheng, the old fox, has been pretending to be confused these days.
Emperor Shengwen said, "After noon today, Yue Guang will go to marry. Please help me see her off."
The Prince of Jin said, "Your Majesty, do you think Li Chengyuan's goal is to prevent the marriage?"
Emperor Shengwen shook his head: "No."
Since ancient times, marriage has never been the most important factor in maintaining peace between two countries. Li Chengyuan must have another important reason for doing this. He wants to destroy the stability of Daxia and cause chaos in the capital.
Since Xia Qi wanted to see such a scene, then he would show it to him.
At this time, a eunuch reported: "Chu Beili wants to see you."
Emperor Shengwen said: "Announce."
Chu Beili came over in a hurry, knelt down and kowtowed, saying: "I am guilty of a capital crime, please punish me, Your Majesty."
Emperor Shengwen and Prince of Jin looked at each other and wondered why Chu Beili was kneeling down when he had just rescued the prince.
The King of Jin said, "Your grandfather has just left. My dear nephew, please tell me what you want to say."
Chu Beili said: "Then Uncle Huang, please spare my death penalty first."
Emperor Shengwen said, "You just saved the prince, you can have whatever you want."
Chu Beili said: "I concealed something from your majesty. A few days ago, I discovered someone who belonged to the former crown prince."
The King of Jin asked, "What? Why didn't you report your discovery of the former crown prince's people?"
Chu Beili said: "I came to look for Uncle Huang, but he was always busy and I couldn't meet him. But I told His Royal Highness the Crown Prince instead."
Emperor Sheng Wen then remembered that Chu Beili had indeed come to see him a few days ago, but at that time he was worried about the moonlight, so he sent him away.
"Who is he? Tell me." It seems that he is not an important person. The prince has never even mentioned him.
"My grandmother's servant, Uncle Zhang."
Prince Jin and Emperor Shengwen didn't know who Zhang Bo was, so they motioned Chu Beili to continue, "He was a servant in my grandfather's courtyard. After my grandfather left, he took care of the Zhang Mansion. Your Majesty knows that the former Prime Minister Lin's mansion was haunted. The two mansions are connected, and it was Zhang Bo who did it."
Emperor Shengwen asked, "Where are the others? Why are they causing trouble in the Lin Mansion?"
"Uncle Zhang is dead. A few days ago, I noticed some movement in the Lin Mansion, but I was not sure, so I thought about checking it out. Then Uncle Zhang told me that the Lin Mansion was haunted and no one was there. It might be to cover up the truth. When I went to check, I ran into Uncle Zhang pretending to be a ghost. As for why it was haunted, Uncle Zhang committed suicide without saying anything. My nephew guessed that the Lin Mansion was their base, so Uncle Zhang haunted it to avoid being discovered."
"You're just going to let him die like this?" asked Emperor Sheng Wen.
Chu Beili replied: "He had hidden the poison in his mouth a long time ago, and I didn't notice it for a while, but recently I have been guarding Zhang's house and observing every move of the abandoned Lin's house."
Emperor Shengwen said, "I promised you that I would not punish you. Zhang Bo is just a small soldier under the command of the former crown prince. They must have discovered something unusual and will not act inside."
Chu Beili said: "Send someone to search?"
Emperor Shengwen said, "Don't alert the enemy. The Crown Prince said that something happened at Xiangquan Temple."
Chu Beili nodded and told Emperor Sheng Wen what had happened in the past few days, omitting the words that Yun Shu mentioned first.
This matter involves a lot of people, so it would be better for Yun Shu not to get involved.
Emperor Shengwen said, "You have done a good job. Send people to keep a close eye on these two places. If there is any unusual movement, Ah Bei, I order you to act according to the situation."
After that, he handed Chu Beili an imperial edict. Chu Beili met the former crown prince's man and could act on his behalf.
Chu Beili took the imperial edict and said, "I obey your order."
With the emperor Shengwen's decree, it will be much easier to act in the future.
Wait for good news from him.
This time, we must eradicate the former crown prince's influence in the capital, so as to live up to the emperor's trust.
After noon, Princess Moonlight bid farewell to Emperor Shengwen and got on the bridal sedan chair to the north.
The people of both sides saw her off. She was a good princess who took the initiative to marry and bring peace to Daxia. In this way, there would be no need for war and the children could grow up in peace.
All the common people who did not want to fight wiped their tears and bid farewell to their princess, their national hero.
The common people knew that Yue Guang and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince were like siblings, and that they had depended on each other since childhood. Someone started by shouting, "Live a thousand years to His Royal Highness the Princess, a thousand years to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and long live the Emperor."
For a moment, the voices of the common people resounded throughout the capital. Princess Moonlight, who was sitting in the sedan chair, couldn't help but burst into tears when she heard such voices.
If she went there for Xia Qi Yang's great cause and to overturn the case for the Yun family at the beginning, now she knows that she is going there for the sake of millions of ordinary people.
Xia Yueguang, without any regrets, is willing to travel far to the north.
The city towers around him were getting farther and farther away. Xia Yueguang finally looked at the place where he grew up and bowed deeply three times. He said goodbye to his hometown, goodbye to his father, goodbye to his dear brother and sister Xiaobai.
It turns out that I, Xia Yueguang, am not completely useless. Seeing the laughter and joy of the common people, I finally found the path I wanted to take.
The Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin were sent here. Looking at Xia Yueguang's figure looking towards the capital city, their noses couldn't help but feel sore. After this separation, they didn't know when they would meet again.
Yue Guang said, "Brother Crown Prince, Uncle Prince Jin, you can go back now. Yue Guang already knows how to get the rest of the way."
Xia Qi Yang went forward and hugged Yue Guang. Although she used rouge to cover the injuries on her face last night, they were still visible if you looked closely.
"Moonlight, brother will always support you."
"Brother Prince, you are injured. Go back quickly. Yue Guang is leaving soon. Take care of yourself in the future."
After saying that, she broke free from Xia Qi Yang's arms, turned around and got on the carriage, and instantly burst into tears again.
She was leaving and could no longer linger on the warmth brought by her brother, the prince.
The carriage was getting smaller and smaller. Xia Qi Yang watched it sailing away. His beloved sister was sitting inside. His heart was churning. Xia Qi Yang felt a black screen in front of his eyes and he passed out.
He was injured too badly last night and had been busy all day with the injury today, so the moment Princess Moonlight left, the breath that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had been holding on to lost, and he fainted.
The Prince of Jin took the Crown Prince back, and did not deliberately conceal the news that the Crown Prince had fainted. There were still many people around who came to see him off. Seeing that the Crown Prince had ridden away on horseback, but came back in a carriage, they asked, "What happened to the Crown Prince? Why did he come back in a carriage?"
The King of Jin said, "My fellow citizens, the Crown Prince has fainted because he missed Princess Moonlight. Please refrain from making loud noises and give the Crown Prince some quiet time to rest."
The people around knew about the relationship between the two, and couldn't help but sigh that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was so loyal and righteous, and why he was so worried about his own sister.
They all fell silent and watched the Crown Prince's carriage pass by.
