Chapter 270
Not long after the son entered the palace, another group of people appeared outside the Donghua Gate. It was a galloping carriage with two large lanterns hanging on the front and rear of the carriage.

"It's the carriage of Prince Gong's Mansion." The guard at the gate recognized it at a glance, "Quickly enter the palace and report!"

Sure enough, after a while, the carriage stopped far away, and the servants came forward with umbrellas and helped the people in the carriage to go down—it was Prince Gong and Princess Wang.

The rain had no intention of stopping at all, so Prince Gong jumped down first, turned around to help his wife, but the princess did not take his hand, and got out of the car from the other side in the rain.

Prince Gong jumped up anxiously. He snatched the umbrella from the servant beside him, and chased him to cover the princess. The princess was angry, "I don't want you to be hypocritical here! If anything happens to my son tonight, you will also take it." With your whip, beat me out of the palace together!"

Prince Gong couldn't argue with his words, "What I said in the car just now was true, none of it was lying to you! I didn't beat him or scold him tonight, it was all because he ran out suddenly—"

"If you hadn't put on airs in front of him all day long, and would fight with the child at every turn, why would he not tell his family anything!"

"I..." Prince Gong choked there, not knowing what to say, but seeing that the princess turned around and was about to walk into the rain, he hurriedly ran after her with an umbrella, "Jun Ping! Jun Ping, wait for me..."

The heavy rain drowned out the voices of the two, and the guards in the distance didn't know what happened, they just looked curiously at the prince and princess who were getting closer under the palace gate.

"What's going on today," the leader looked at his partner in a strange way, "The prince's family is all running to the palace."

……

In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the prince had already knelt in front of Emperor Jianxi through the gauze curtain.

Qiu Shi looked at the drowned child in front of him with distress, and he had already hugged a whole set of dry clothes and waited aside, "Master, even if you have something to say, why don't you change your clothes first?"

Shizi still knelt there quietly as if he didn't hear it.

Emperor Jianxi's choking voice came from behind the gauze tent, "Don't worry about him, he is young and can stand it!"

From last night to now, Emperor Jianxi’s shut-eye time did not exceed two hours in total—first, he listened to the imperial envoy returning from the north to explain the situation of the gold thief in detail, and then called the cabinet to discuss countermeasures, and he did not eat today’s food until nightfall The first meal.

The son's eyes were red, his eyes were red too, the grandpa and grandson looked at each other through the gauze curtain, Qiu Shi stood aside in embarrassment, not knowing what to say.

After a while, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and Qiu Shi knew that the savior was coming - Huang Chongde couldn't run away if such a big incident happened in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

He was obviously just woken up from the bed, and his hair was not as neatly combed as before. Huang Chongde knelt down beside the crown prince, and after saluting, he said softly, "Your Majesty, Prince Gong and Princess Wang are here too. Waiting at the gate of Huamen to see you."

Shizi's expression moved slightly.

"Let them wait outside!" Emperor Jianxi snapped.

"Yes."

Huang Chongde stood up and went out again, Qiu Shi suddenly became depressed again - also, Huang Chongde should go to see the prince in person outside.

When the Hall of Mental Cultivation returned to tranquility, Emperor Jianxi's voice sounded again, "Why, did you come to tell me about your parents when you entered the palace today?"

The prince shook his head again and again, "No, no. My father and mother concubine treated me very well."

Emperor Jianxi snorted coldly, "What's the matter, just because of that dragon, didn't your father break a few bamboo whips when he beat you?"

The prince was stunned for a moment, "... Grandpa Huang already knows."

"I don't know anything." Emperor Jianxi sat up from the couch, and he was no longer sleepy after being made such a fuss by the prince. He sighed, "There are no wrong parents in the world. Your father disciplines you, and I can't control you. Said Well, what are you doing here so late in the palace?"

The prince bowed and kowtowed, "I'm here to plead guilty."

"Oh." Emperor Jianxi glanced at the son, "What crime."

"Last night, Chengqian Palace Secretary Yao Bailing was accused of having an affair with a guard... That guard is none other than me."

There was only a slight sound - Qiu Shi's clothes fell to the ground, and he stared at Shi Zi, unable to close his mouth for a while.

"...But Bai Siyao and I have always been friends of gentlemen and have never done anything beyond the rules."

Qiu Shi supported his heart, "My lord...don't speak so out of breath, it's scary."

Stretching out a hand from behind the gauze curtain, Emperor Jianxi lifted the curtain and walked down from the bed.

Qiu Shi hurried forward, wanting to put on Emperor Jianxi's coat, but he opened it with one hand, "Take it away!"

Emperor Jianxi walked slowly to the table and sat in front of the crown prince, "...what's going on, tell me from beginning to end, if there is half a lie, I will definitely not forgive you!"

The prince's face was as usual, he kowtowed to Emperor Jianxi again, and began to talk.He erased all the specific personnel and events involved in the conversation between the two, starting from Yu Huayuan's first meeting with Bo Ling.

The first time I met Bo Ling, she handed over a water bag, and the two hurriedly parted ways after a few words. When Bo Ling asked about his identity, he casually said that he was a royal guard;

When he met Berlin for the second time, he deliberately approached him.During that time, the news that Bai Ling rescued the imperial concubine on the palace wall shocked the world, and he was really curious about what kind of abilities this girl had. However, during that conversation, the two had different views on the beauty of women in history, and they were almost unhappy. and scattered;

The third time I met Bo Ling was when he was caught by his father to visit General Shen. He fled halfway, and the two met by chance.Bo Ling helped him hide, and he invited a meal of wine and meat in return;
The fourth time I met Bo Ling was after guarding the scriptures for Emperor Jianxi. He was worried about the Hulu family and was extremely anxious. Bo Ling poured cold water on his head to wake him up.

The fifth time I saw Anhu, the sixth time at Donglin Temple...

As the time went on, Shizi's expression became more calm—he suddenly realized that he remembered everything related to Berlin very clearly, and everything was as clear as yesterday, as if it had just happened.

After listening all the way, Emperor Jianxi had already seen clearly the prince's little thoughts.

"I really like chatting with this pharmacist. She always has many unexpected ideas and opinions." Shizi said softly, "It's not that I haven't thought about telling her my real identity, but I'm worried about telling her." She, she is restrained in her heart, but she can't be like before—"

"I think you are so stupid."

Emperor Jianxi sneered and interrupted. Thinking of Bai Ling's reaction last night, he finally understood why Bai Ling didn't seem in a hurry at all—this girl is as smart as a fox, and she has all kinds of tricks in her mind. She is only ten years old now. At the age of one or two, he had already stirred up the capital, and when he was a little older, he didn't know how much wind and rain it would attract.

No wonder Bai Shijun wanted to run away.

Emperor Jianxi looked at Shizi, and reminded him in a cold voice, "What is your identity, even if Bai Ling didn't see it the first time, it is impossible for her not to know the second and third time."

"It doesn't matter," the prince also looked up at the emperor, "It's because I don't know how to face her, it's because I need a bodyguard's shell, whether she knows...it doesn't really matter."

Saying so, the prince kowtowed again.

"Grandfather, please let Bo Ling go! If there is an explanation for this matter, I am willing to bear all the responsibilities with Bo Ling!"

Emperor Jianxi raised his eyebrows.

Hopeless.
