Chapter 245 The Crown Princess’s Worries

"Who is so bold as to poison the prince?"

Hou Junji clenched his fists and roared angrily.

He is the father-in-law of the prince, a real princeling. If Li Chengqian is ill, he is not so sick, but he is poisoned.

The prince was also shocked and turned pale.

Although he was young, he was shocked after hearing Li Zheng's words.

"This matter needs to be investigated."

"Anyway, all the people who accompanied the prince in Yangzhou were captured. The truth will be dug out soon."

Wang Hao said very confidently.

In the entire Tang Dynasty, he was confident that he would not lose to anyone when it came to torturing prisoners.

"You must find out and let me know who poisoned him. I will cut him into pieces."

Hou Junji gritted his teeth and said.

"That's natural." Wang Hao nodded.

Not prepared to stay any longer.

"General Li, I have brought the emperor's message, so I will leave first."

"General Li must remember to enter the palace tonight." Wang Hao bowed his hands in salute.

"Thank you." Li Zheng immediately returned the greeting.

Wang Hao turned around and left with the Yu Lin Army.

But Hou Junji and the Crown Prince couldn't calm down at this moment.

When they came to the county government's mansion, they found out such big news, which made them feel uneasy.

After they all left.

"Wan'er."

"Why did you invite the crown prince to the wedding banquet?"

"The prince is still young, and now that the prince is in a coma, it will be difficult for us to deal with him if something happens to him again." Li Zheng said with some helplessness. He originally planned to refuse.

"Brother Zheng."

"Your Majesty is young, but the general is here to protect you, so how can anything happen? Besides, I have so many personal guards in the Duke's mansion, so nothing will happen to me."

"If the prince wants to come, let him come. How can he refuse?"

Qin Waner looked at Li Zheng and said softly.

"Then Madam has the final say!" Li Zheng joked.

……

The side hall of Tai Chi Hall.

"His Majesty."

"The oral message has been passed on to General Li."

"General Li doesn't want a bad person to assist in the trial. It doesn't matter whether he goes or not."

"And when I passed by, Hou Junji and the Crown Prince were also in the Duke's mansion." Wang Hao said respectfully.

"Hou Junji, it seems that he has completely resolved his misunderstanding about Huang Er."

"Otherwise, he wouldn't be like dog-skin plaster on the emperor's skin."

"As for my prince, it's really difficult for him. As soon as he came back, things kept happening. I asked him why he didn't want to stay in Chang'an. I guess he was afraid that I would annoy him." Li Shimin laughed, with a bit of a smile. .

"All right."

"Go and interrogate those people. If they are not implicated, let them go. If they are sure to be implicated, torture them severely and never let them go."

Li Shimin said slowly.

"I accept the order." Wang Hao respectfully stepped back.

"Go and deliver the decree to Yuchi Jingde and King Jiangxia."

"Let them have dinner in the palace at night, and I also invited Li Zheng and his wife to come with them." Li Shimin said to Wang De.

"Old slave accepts the order." Wang De respectfully accepted the order.

Obviously.

Li Shimin's move was also to allow his old brother and most trusted person to meet Li Zheng, his royal son, again.

"correct."

"Tomorrow, we will summon Hou Junji and the Crown Prince to the palace for an audience."

"I really want to give them a beating."

Looking at Wang De's back, Li Shimin added another sentence.

"The old slave accepts the order."

Wang De respectfully accepted the order.

"Yu Chi Jingde, Li Daozong."

"Liu Renjiang, Wei Zheng, Tang Jian."

"If there is anything else that can be arranged for our prince, everything must be arranged. Otherwise, something unexpected happens to me one day." Li Shimin murmured to himself.

Everything in my heart is about my royal son.

... one day.

It goes by in the blink of an eye.

But for Chang'an City, this day was not peaceful.

Inside the East Palace.

Many subordinate officials were directly captured by the Yulin army, and all the servants who served the prince in the East Palace were also captured.

Although this matter did not make a big fuss, it was not a secret to the powerful people in Chang'an City.

Word spread quickly.

"Father."

"The emperor suddenly issued an order to capture many officials in the East Palace, as well as attendants, all of whom had accompanied the prince to Yangzhou for inspection."

"It is said that the prince's serious illness was not accidental, but was poisoned."

"This matter is too big."

"Tell me who did it and dared to poison the prince." Crown Princess Su looked at her father, her face filled with frost.

For her, the princess.

Li Chengqian is the source of her authority. Li Chengqian is now in a coma, which also has a great impact on her. After all, if something happens to the prince, if he does not talk about the prince concubine or the queen, he will probably end up miserable in the future.

"Don't think about it."

"It must be the emperor's sons. Apart from them, no one else has any reason to poison the prince."

"And the two people are the most suspect."

"The first one is the King of Wei, the second one is the King of Jin."

"They are all the emperor's legitimate sons. If the prince really dies, they will be the biggest beneficiaries."

"just like…"

Su Tan looked around with a serious face and made sure that there was no one else except the father, daughter and his son.

"For those legitimate sons, if something happens to the prince, it will be their opportunity."

"Sun Simiao's medical skills are second to none in the Tang Dynasty. He takes care of the prince's body every day, but he has not found the prince poisoned for several months. As soon as Li Zheng came back yesterday, the emperor ordered the Yulin Army to arrest people. There must be something to do with Li Zheng. There’s a connection.”

Su Tan said with deep eyes.

"He gave the prince the magic medicine and saved the prince's life."

"It proves that Li Zheng's methods are unusual. Fortunately, we have no entanglement with him, otherwise it would really be a bad thing."

Su Tan said very happily.

"father."

"I'm afraid things are not as simple as we thought."

"I just got the news today."

"The Crown Prince Li Ke and Hou Junji went to the Duke's Mansion and gave many gifts. I'm afraid that Li Zheng has already turned to the Crown Prince's side."

Su Shi said with a serious face.

"It can't be judged from the surface. Maybe this is what Hou Junji did to show us deliberately. He just wants us to think that Li Zheng is one of theirs and let us deal with him. This will force Li Zheng to their side."

Su Tan said wisely.

"I'm afraid he will really fall over there." "That would definitely be a big blow to us."

Su Shi said solemnly.

At this time.

"Mother, the Holy Envoy has arrived."

An East Palace eunuch quickly ran into the main hall and reported to Mrs. Su.

"Holy Messenger?"

"Could it be that the emperor wants to summon me?"

Su's face showed joy.

"Hurry, welcome the Holy Envoy." Su shouted immediately.

Not a moment.

Wang De quickly walked into the hall.

"I respectfully listen to my father's imperial edict."

Su Shi knelt down directly, and Su Tan immediately followed suit.

"Where is the Crown Prince?"

Wang De took a look and asked aloud.

"Li Ke?"

Su Shi frowned, with extreme confusion and jealousy.

Seeing Su's expression, Wang De sneered in his heart.

It seems that the prince has suffered a lot in the East Palace during the more than half a year since the prince was in coma!

However, due to his identity, Wang De did not dare to say anything.
