Chapter 473 The second prince is stupid
“Ao Bing, why is it you?”
“Why are you pretending to be my brother, and what are your intentions?”
“Where is my brother, where is he?”
…
Seeing that it was the second prince's bodyguard, Princess Huai'an was no longer afraid. She rushed over and asked a bunch of questions.
But the guard Ao kept his head lowered and didn't say a word.
The emperor's face was gloomy and he waved to Pang Shou.
Pang Shou immediately stepped forward and dragged Ao Bing aside for interrogation.
Even though he was tortured to the point of dying, Ao Bing still gritted his teeth and did not confess a word.
In the end, Ling Chu used the mantra, and Ao Bing revealed the matter.
“Ao Bing, are you good at ventriloquism?”
"yes."
“Who asked you to pretend to be the second prince?”
“It’s His Highness the Second Highness.”
“Where did the skull, talisman and hair on your body come from?”
“It was made by Taoist Master Wuwei of Ziyun Temple.”
“Why did you hold the Queen Mother hostage?”
“The Second Highness knew that the emperor had returned to Beijing, so he ordered his subjects to use the disguise Gu and ordered them to kidnap the Queen Mother.”
“Where is the second prince now?”
“I don’t know.”
It seems that the second prince has been prepared for such a day.
In order to seize the throne, a lot of planning was done.
Ao Bing has been guarding the second prince for more than ten years and is extremely familiar with his words and deeds. His body shape is similar to his and he is good at ventriloquism. It is not difficult to imitate the second prince.
In addition, Taoist Master Wuwei used magic and the second prince's birth date, hair, and blood essence to move his soul into the skull, and then took the disguise Gu.
If it hadn't been for the encounter with Xuan Yi's masters and disciples, no one would have been able to see through the second prince's plan in a short period of time.
Ao Bing was given a mantra of truth and could answer all questions.
It's a pity that he is just a tool and does not know the whereabouts of the second prince.
“Can Princess Jiashan figure it out?”
This naturally did not trouble Ling Chu.
After the emperor secretly returned to Beijing, he immediately sent heavy troops to guard the four city gates. The second prince must still be in the city at this moment.
“Miss Han, but...”
Seeing Ling Chu looking at the hexagrams, the head of Huai'an County felt panicked and wanted to ask her if she had figured it out, but thinking of what the second prince had done, he bit his lower lip again.
“Back to the emperor, the second prince is in Nancheng.”
In order to seize the throne, the second prince did not hesitate to kill his father and brother. Naturally, the emperor did not want him to escape from the capital.
Immediately ordered Pang Shou and King Dingyuan to lead troops to Nancheng.
In order to ensure that the second prince could be captured as soon as possible, the emperor originally planned to let Ling Chu go with Pang Shou and others.
But he was stopped by Xuan Yi Zhenren.
"Your Majesty, this disciple Pindao is a girl after all, and is in poor health. If he faints along the way, he will miss the mark. It's better to let..."
Zhenren Xuanyi originally wanted his eldest disciple to go, but Qingfeng suddenly interrupted him, "Master, it's better for you to go as a disciple. I'm young and in good health, so I can bear it."
Even though there is no family relationship between the Tian family and the second prince plots rebellion, the emperor will definitely not keep him. But he is the emperor's son after all.
If one day the emperor regrets getting rid of the second prince, who knows whether he will resent Shang Lingchu.
Whether Qingfeng volunteered to lead people to arrest him, he was Prince Rui after all. Prince Rui did not support his ascension to the throne even under the pressure of the second prince.
For the sake of Prince Rui, even if the emperor is angry with Qingfeng, he will not kill him.
Ling Chu knew that Qingfeng was defending herself, but before she could object, Master Xuan Yi had already agreed. The emperor saw that Ling Chu's face was really bad, so he didn't refute Xuan Yi's face.
Seeing Qingfeng leading Pang Tong and them away, Princess Huai'an looked desperate.
His lips moved, but he finally swallowed his words asking the emperor to spare the second prince.
It’s not that she doesn’t want to plead, it’s that she knows that no matter how much she pleads, it will be useless.
Although Princess Huai'an has always been arrogant and domineering, she is not completely brainless.
Not to mention that the second prince committed the serious crime of treason, even if this had not been the case, the emperor probably would not have allowed him to live.
The affair between Concubine An Xian and Vice Commander Zhao was widely known. To the emperor, this was a great shame and humiliation.
Although there is no evidence to prove that the second prince is Zhao Chuanlin's son, even if there is only a 10% possibility, the emperor will not let the second prince have the opportunity to confuse the royal family's bloodline.
Seeing that the emperor accompanied the Queen Mother back to the palace, Ling Chu breathed a sigh of relief and could finally go back to the palace to rest.
The original owner was raised by Master Xuan Yi. Ling Chu inherited her body and had already made up his mind to provide for him in his old age.
She planned to ask Master Xuan Yi and Ji Yuan to go with her to Dingyuan Palace, but they were rejected.
"My master and your senior brother are going to the palace. This is the health medicine your second senior brother has prepared for you. Remember to take it on time when you get back. If something happens, you can send someone to deliver a message to the palace."
Master Xuan Yi has made a decision. Although it is a pity, Ling Chu has no choice.
The emperor has always wanted to make Master Xuan Yi the national counselor. Now that he has come to Kyoto, the emperor will definitely let him enter the palace.
After everyone left, Ning Chuyi walked over and said, "Let's go, I'll take you back home."
Hearing the sound, Ling Chu suddenly came back to his senses.
Seeing her master and brothers, she actually forgot about Ning Chuyi.
Fortunately, Ning Chuyi had a good temper and was not unhappy after being left out. He sent Ling Chu to the door of Dingyuan Prince's Mansion before leaving.
Before leaving, he said softly, "Go back and have a good rest. In two days, I will come to the prince and princess to propose marriage."
I don’t know if it was because he was afraid of Ling Chu’s rejection, but after Ning Chuyi finished speaking, he rode away.
Looking at his leaving figure, Ling Chu had a headache.
She is not from this era, does she really want to marry Ning Chuyi?
Although the chance of traveling back to modern times is slim, if she really gets married and has children here, even if she has the chance, she won't be able to go back.
“Chuchu, why don’t you go in even after you come back?”
Princess Dingyuan has been worried about Ling Chu's safety since she returned home.
I was restless when I heard the concierge coming to report, and immediately ran out in a hurry.
“Are you injured?” The princess was afraid that she might be injured, so she took her hand and looked up and down.
“Don’t worry, concubine, I’m fine. My father has also returned to Beijing.”
“Really, that’s great.”
Since both father and daughter were fine, the princess finally felt relieved and took Ling Chu's hand back.
After the princess returned home, she asked the cook to cook many of Ling Chu’s favorite dishes.
Seeing that her daughter had lost a lot of weight during her trip to Beijing, the princess felt very distressed. Without waiting for King Dingyuan to return to the palace, he directly let Ling Chu eat and then drove her back to his courtyard to rest.
Xia Zhi and Liu Xiangju almost went crazy with joy when they saw Ling Chu coming back.
Several maids were busy around her, serving tea and water, asking about her well-being, and carefully preparing hot water.
Ling Chu was already very tired and fell asleep halfway through taking a bath.
Several maids felt distressed and couldn't bear to wake her up. Working together, they carefully helped her out of the bathtub, wiped off the water drops, changed her clothes, wringed her hair, and then put her on the bed.
Ling Chu's sleep lasted until the evening of the next day when he woke up.
After getting up, she planned to go to the main courtyard to have dinner with the prince and princess, and by the way, she wanted to ask if the second prince had been caught.
Unexpectedly, the first thing King Dingyuan said was, "The second prince is stupid."
