Chapter 272
At this time, at the gate of the palace, Dongfang Shuo got down from the carriage and knocked on the tightly closed vermilion door.

Not long after, a servant came out from the inside and opened the door slightly, "I have seen Your Highness, His Highness is here today to look for the prince? What a coincidence, the prince is not in the mansion today."

Dongfang Shuo was taken aback, "Then do you know where the prince has gone?"

The servant smiled and said, "Your Highness was joking. How can I know the whereabouts of the prince as a servant of the door? Please come again next time, Your Highness!"

Before Dongfang Shuo could speak, he closed the door with a bang.

Seeing this, Zhang Ping, the servant who came with Dongfang Shuo, said indignantly: "Your Highness, what is this man's attitude? Before His Highness finished speaking, he turned people away! He really has no manners!"

Dongfang Shuo waved his hand, "Forget it, knock on my door again!"

Hearing this, Zhang Ping hurriedly stepped forward and knocked on the door of the palace again. This time, before the servant of the palace opened his mouth, he stepped into the door with one foot, "Wait a minute, my prince has something to say. It cannot be closed for the time being!"

The servant of the palace was not angry at all, he just smiled and said: "I am the one who is impatient, Your Highness, I will apologize to you first, I wonder why His Highness came here today?"

Dongfang Shuo thought for a while, "Since the national teacher is not at home, can the princess be in the mansion?"

"This is really a coincidence, our princess is not here!"

Zhang Ping was dissatisfied when he heard the words: "You haven't gone to check, how do you know that the princess is not there? I can see clearly that you, a slave, deliberately guarded the door to prevent our highness from entering!"

The servant of the palace smiled slightly, "Brother, I am the gatekeeper, how can I not know if the prince and concubine are there? Besides, even if I am a slave, I am also a slave of the palace. What do I have to do with your highness? Why did you let your highness go in for no reason? Besides, I might as well say something today, our concubine has already spoken, the sixteenth prince is talented and talented, and there is no need for the prince to bother to teach him. From now on, the sixteenth prince It's better not to come to the palace, so as not to be misunderstood!"

Dongfang Shuo's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, could it be that the prince already knew what he had done?But thinking about Wang Ye's contacts, it is not difficult to know such a thing, so what is the meaning of Wang Ye blocking him out of the door now?
Could it be that this is a complete parting of ways with him?
Thinking of this, Dongfang Shuo panicked even more!
And the servant of the palace closed the door again, completely ignoring Dongfang Shuo and Zhang Ping's dumbfounded.

The servant of the palace closed the door, hurriedly ran to the gatehouse at the side, and said to a girl who looked like a servant girl with a smile, "Miss Chunlai, the villain has already done what you said, do you think you are satisfied?"

Chun Lai said with a smile: "Good job! The princess has doubled this month's salary!"

"Thank you girl!"

It was naturally Shen Hua's idea to keep Dongfang Shuo out of the door, especially when Shen Hua heard that Dongfang Shuo, an idiot, had asked someone to attack the prince in broad daylight, she had made up her mind that she must not let Mo Xuan Participate in it, so there will be the previous scene!
In the palace, Shen Hua and Mo Xuan were sitting opposite each other, and Mo Xuan was holding a bowl of decoction in his hand.

"Madam, why didn't you take today's medicine?"

"I'm fine now, and I don't want to take medicine. Besides, this common medicine doesn't have much effect, so let's just leave it."

Mo Xuan sighed, and looked at Shen Hua with some distress, "Ma'am, the medicine is not good, your health has not recovered yet, so naturally this medicine cannot be stopped."

Shen Hua frowned, "Don't worry, my lord, I know my body well, but my lord, how do you plan to deal with this matter now?"

Hearing Shen Hua mentioning the assassination of the crown prince, Mo Xuan also frowned. It was only a few hours, and everyone in the imperial city knew about it, but what surprised Mo Xuan was that the crown prince did not directly tell The chief envoy said that this was inconsistent with his usual style, and he didn't know what the hell Dongfang Yi was doing!

However, Dongfang Shuo's actions this time really disappointed him. He thought that this younger brother would grow up under his careful teaching, but he didn't expect that the growth would not be improved, but the expansion would be there. This made him very disappointed in his heart. My many days of hard work went to waste.

"Let's just wait and see what happens. Presumably this kind of thing happened, the prince will not let it go!"

"I also think, so it's better for the prince not to join the war at the moment!"

"Even so, madam can't keep Dongfang Shuo at bay, can she?" Although the words were accusations, Mo Xuan said them with a hint of pampering in his tone.

Shen Hua smiled slightly, "Don't worry, my lord, I just want to show him off, how about we make a bet, my lord? Within half a day, he will definitely come back again!"

Looking at Shen Hua's determined face, Mo Xuan couldn't help being interested, and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Madam is so determined?"

"It's so sure, how can I bet or not?"

"Okay! What's the bet?"

Mo Xuan's eyes turned, and his eyes fell on the bowl of medicine that was already slightly cold, "Why don't you take this medicine as a bet, if Madam loses, you must take medicine every day from today onwards, if Madam wins, How about eating medicinal food?"

Shen Hua chuckled, "My lord has a good plan. I want to take medicine on the left and right, but the way of taking medicine is different. But, forget it, since you said so, let's do it."

The two set a time limit of three days, if that Dongfang Shuo came again, then Shen Hua would win, if that Dongfang Shuo didn't come, then Mo Xuan would win!
As a result, when it was only dawn the next morning, a servant came to report in a hurry.

"My lord, my concubine, the sixteenth prince knelt at the door early this morning, my lord, go and have a look!"

Shen Hua's face darkened, "What? Kneeling at the door? How decent is this?"

Mo Xuan, who was about to go to court, also had a very ugly face when he heard the words, he stepped forward and took Shen Hua's hand, "Madam, don't be angry, I'll go out and have a look!"

"go together!"

After Shen Hua finished speaking, she took the lead and dragged Mo Xuan to the main entrance together!
Sure enough, as the servants said, Dongfang Shuo was wearing a crescent-white gown, with a few thorns tied on his back, and the sharp thorns had pierced his back with blood. He knelt upright at the gate of the palace.

Fortunately, it is not dawn yet, otherwise, if this matter spreads, it may be bad for the reputation of the palace.

Shen Hua stepped forward first, looking at Dongfang Shuo coldly, "Your Highness Sixteen, what do you mean?"

Dongfang Shuo saw Mo Xuan and the others coming out, the joy in his eyes was fleeting, and then turned into shame, he kowtowed heavily to Mo Xuan and said: "Master, the national teacher, before Shuo was young and ignorant, he did not listen to the teaching of the national teacher. I made a big mistake, so I can only be cheeky and beg for your forgiveness!"

Shen Hua sneered, "Your Highness, you are really calculating. Do you think that as long as you deliberately kneel at the gate of my palace, the prince will have to forgive you for the sake of face?"

Dongfang Shuo kowtowed again and said, "Suo dare not have such an idea. Shuo knew what he had done before, and even though he could die, he couldn't escape his guilt. However, Shuo was taught carefully by Mr. even if Mr. Shuo declared that he did not know what Shuo did. His Royal Highness will definitely hate him, so why don't you just cooperate with Shuo? Continue to assist Shuo?"

Shen Hua wanted to say something, but Mo Xuan held her hand, "Madam, let me handle this matter. Madam is not in good health, so go back and rest earlier."

After finishing speaking, Mo Xuan glanced at Dongfang Shuo lightly with his deep eyes, his scalp was numb, he couldn't say a word of all the plausible words just now, he just lowered his head, waiting for Mo Xuan's punishment. "

Mo Xuan was silent for a long time before saying to Dongfang Shuo: "You go back now, after the court today, follow me to the mansion!"

Dongfang Shuo was overjoyed, and quickly kowtowed to express his gratitude, "Thank you sir!"

As soon as Mo Xuan raised his hand, he motioned for the servants at home to help Dongfang Shuo up, so as not to be seen as a joke at the door!
Seeing this, Shen Hua could only sigh inwardly, Mo Xuan was fine everywhere, but his heart was too soft, even after going through the painful past, he was still unwilling to let his brother die.

That's all!That being the case, it seems that they have decided to wade through the muddy water of the prince's assassination.

Mo Xuan and Shen Hua exhorted each other a few words before turning around and getting into the carriage.

When Dongfang Shuo got the news, he naturally didn't continue to stay in front of the palace. He also boarded the carriage and rushed to the palace.

In the early morning, the old emperor sat on the dragon chair, covering his lips with his skinny hands and yawning from time to time. The gray eyes showed that he seemed a little too indulgent last night.

Mo Xuan stood at the front of the crowd with his eyes fixed on his nose, nose, nose, nose and heart, and he had a panoramic view of the old emperor's little movements, but his handsome face was expressionless, and he only sighed secretly in his heart, it seems that the emperor really wanted to do something wrong up.

"Prince, I heard that you were assassinated on Biyan Lake yesterday?"

The old emperor's sudden opening made Mo Xuan's pupils shrink slightly, and he soon regained his composure. It seems that even an old tiger can't help but guard against his minions curled up all the time!
The crown prince Dongfang Yi took a step forward, and glanced at Mo Xuan vaguely, "Father, it's just some small bugs, I have already dealt with them! Thank you, Father, for your concern."

The old emperor drooped his eyelids, answered in a low voice, and then said again: "Today you can stay in the palace and talk with me."

Although the prince was a little confused, he still responded very respectfully: "I obey!"

Not to mention what Mo Xuan thinks about this matter, the prince who was already like a decoration suddenly got attention, which made many princelings very happy, thinking that perhaps things are not so bad, as long as the prince is diligent these days, If you perform well in front of the emperor, you may not be able to regain your position as the crown prince.

Thinking about it this way, many people's attitude towards Dongfang Wing became subtle.

And Dongfang Yi was also a little surprised. Although he deliberately let people spread the news about his assassination, it was unexpected that the Emperor would care so much about him.

But anyway, this is an opportunity!
A dark light flashed across Dongfang Yi's eyes, he really didn't expect that this time Shiliu did him a favor in a wrong way!I don't know what his expression will be at this time.

After learning that Dongfang Yi was staying overnight by the emperor, Dongfang Shuo's lungs were about to explode!The more I felt that my previous actions were really stupid. I knew that the prince Dongfang Yi was basically dispensable in the hearts of the court and the emperor, but an assassination turned him from a transparent person into a The focus of the emperor's attention?If the prince can turn salted fish over this time, wouldn't he have regrets in his intestines!
