Fortune Princess

Chapter 127

Huo Ting has been at odds with Guan Jun since the last morning court. He also asked someone to investigate in private, and learned that the rumors came from the servants of Anlebo's house. There is no reason why he didn't understand. It must be this The old fox deliberately killed people to frame him!
For several days in a row, as long as Guan Jun raised something in the court, Huo Ting would object, and even if the objection failed, he would stumbling him and delay the matter.The results of the prince's investigation have been informed to everyone, and it is confirmed that Huo Ting and Huo Jingyi had someone who could prove that Guan Ao had no time to commit the crime, whether it was himself or ordered others, and the suspects had been ruled out.

Guan Ao's death was just a stone thrown into the water, which stirred up some waves, splashed some dirty water on the reputation of Huo Ting and Jing Yi, and there were no more waves.Guan Jun used one life to confirm the guess in his mind, that is, the relationship between the prince and the Huo family is by no means as simple as a good relationship.

After the imperial court, Guan Jun had just returned to Anlebo Mansion when he heard the servants say that the Second Prince had arrived and had been waiting in the study for a long time.When Guan Jun opened the door and entered, he really saw Xiao Yiheng sitting in his place, playing with the snuff bottle, which was a small object he put on the table.

"I see the second prince." Although he was the father-in-law, but he was a king and a minister before a father and son. When meeting Xiao Yiheng, he still had to be courteous.

Xiao Yiheng was entrusted by the imperial concubine, so he respected Guan Jun very much. Seeing Guan Jun like this, he got up and helped him up himself: "There are no outsiders here, father-in-law doesn't need to be so polite."

"My concubine heard that Guan Ao's affairs didn't make Huo Ting feel bad, so she asked me to come and see my father-in-law. Don't be overly sad. Concubine mother knows that Guan Ao was raised by his father-in-law. Needless to say, he has been in love for many years, but he is a servant after all. "Father-in-law is golden and precious, so don't overwork yourself." Putting away his foolish appearance, Xiao Yiheng said in a serious manner.

"Yes, thank you for your concern." The prince tried his best to protect the Huo family, and Guan Jun was just probing, testing the position of the Huo family in the prince's heart...

"I also believe that father-in-law will consider the overall situation, but can our chess pieces be moved?" As the day of Xiao Yichen's concubine selection is approaching, it is impossible to say that Xiao Yiheng is not in a hurry.If Xiao Yichen gave birth to a son after getting married, the eldest grandson of the emperor would only let him secure the position of prince completely, and there would be no possibility of shaking it.

Guan Jun smiled and squinted his eyes, looking at Xiao Yiheng in front of him, he was dissatisfied with the second prince in his heart, he was too loose, greedy for women, and he didn't have the scheming of a prince.

It's a pity for his daughter...

"Wait a little longer, the time has not yet come..." There is no need to explain too much to the stupid person, just follow his plan.

Before Xiao Yichen could dissipate the anger of Zuo Jingyun and Lian Ying'er, thinking about how to keep these two away from Jing Yi, news came from the palace that he was allowed to enter the palace.

Rong Hui secretly heaved a sigh of relief, Mr. Jing Yi must not know that because of his unintentional actions, the Prince's Mansion has been living in dire straits for the past few days.All the maidservants and eunuchs wished they could not even breathe, because they were afraid that their voices would be too loud and offend His Highness the Crown Prince.

This confidant of his even kept his head pinned to his belt for several days every day, thinking about when Mr. Jing Yi would come to find his master in person, so as to dissipate the depression. Mr. Jing Yi didn't wait, but waited for the news of entering the palace.

Taking a sneak peek at his master, Rong Hui started to ramble in his heart again, but don't contradict the emperor just because you are in a bad mood...

During the days when he was friends with Mr. Jing Yi, he found that his master seemed a little different from before. The feeling of being friends with anyone, but no one could walk into his side was getting weaker and weaker. Inadvertently, the master would also Show your true nature, especially next to Mr. Jing Yi.

Just as Rong Hui was thinking wildly, Xiao Yichen had already entered the hall: "I pay my respects to my father."

The superior Xiao Qixing looked at his son whom he hadn't seen for a few days, his smiling face suddenly sank, and he frowned and asked, "Chen'er is not feeling well recently? Why does he seem to have lost weight?" What are they for? I want to replace them all!

"Thank you, father, for your concern. My son is fine. Maybe I was tired a while ago, so I just need to take a rest." Xiao Yichen didn't care much, "I don't know why my father called my son?"

Worried about Xiao Yichen's body, and worried in his heart, but the emperor still didn't want to bring this up too much, because he was afraid that Xiao Yichen would be overwhelmed, that's all, just wait for him to send a few more capable imperial physicians to the Prince's Mansion to take care of Chen'er's body.

"Look at these picture scrolls." Pointing to the scrolls placed aside, a smile crept into Xiao Qixing's eyes again.

With a glance, Xiao Yichen knew what the emperor meant. It seemed that these were pictures of beauties.

Rong Hui, who knew the cause and effect, secretly thought it was bad, no one knew better than him that his master was already in a lot of trouble for Mr. Jing Yi, so how could he care about looking at any woman!

"Father, son..." Before Xiao Yichen could say that he didn't want to choose the princess concubine for the time being, Xiao Qixing preempted him and said, "Chen'er, these are noble daughters from aristocratic families that I selected together with your imperial grandmother. See if there is anything you like?"

Xiao Qixing got off the dragon chair, walked to the table in person, and pointed to a small pile of scrolls.The eunuch next to him took out a scroll and opened it with a wink, and a dignified and elegant woman came into view with a slight sweep of her eyebrows. She had an oval face, smiling eyes full of spring, and looked forward.The painter is skilled and expresses his demeanor vividly.

"His Royal Highness, the emperor didn't rest well for several nights in order to consider for you. I have been thinking about it all the time. The old slave saw it in his eyes and felt pain in his heart. The emperor and the empress dowager have selected six beautiful women like this. Both are the daughters of officials in the current dynasty. No matter their status or appearance, they are all the best." The emperor couldn't say such words like asking for credit, so naturally he, his slave, did it for him.

Not everyone can be the emperor's confidant. He doesn't need to say much, he knows what to say and what not to say.

"It's unfilial for the emperor to let the father worry about his son and minister." Xiao Yichen saluted, his tone obviously softening a little.

Xiao Qixing laughed: "You are my prince, and the only son of my queen and me. I don't love you. These women are all born on the sixth day of June. Look, do you like it?"

The eunuchs opened the scrolls one by one for Xiao Yichen to have a look at. Although Xiao Yichen knew that the emperor would be influenced by the state teacher's last words, he never expected that they would be so consistent. It was not easy to find so many girls on the sixth day of June.

"His Royal Highness, look at this one, this one is the one with the most outstanding appearance among several women." The eunuch opened the last scroll, and sure enough, the woman on the scroll had red lips, white teeth, icy muscles and fine bones, and she was looking forward to it with delicate eyes. At the age of six or seven, there is a faint charm of allure.

"Don't tell me, this girl looks quite like Concubine Mu Gui back then." Xiao Qixing nodded in satisfaction.
