Chapter 268 The Princess Arrives (62)
The waiting time is long...
Although Taishi Ji looks like a kind old man, Cheng Su is still a little afraid after being an official for so many years and having an aura that is very comparable to people.
But as long as Cheng Su thinks about what will happen to Nanxing next, she will not be under such great pressure, but she is particularly looking forward to it...
She understood that it was useless to rely on her own words. Master Ji may be half-believing and half-doubted now, and there is not enough evidence to report to the emperor, but the palace maid came back then was different...
But she had to do it all, but she didn't come first than the palace maid...
It's the Lord.
After kneeling for a while, Cheng Su moved slightly and relaxed his somewhat stiff legs.
A close confidant strode past her and whispered a few words to Master Ji. He didn't know what he said, but Master Ji's eyes shook and walked past her without saying a word...
Cheng Su's uneasiness became heavier and heavier. She frowned and comforted herself in her heart. Maybe Master Ji had his own business to be busy. After all, it still took some time to go back and forth, and she didn't have to wait with her...
Master Ji thought that His Majesty might come, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly!
He asked his confidants along the way, "What did you say to His Majesty?"
"I just said one thing, and when His Majesty heard that it was the eldest princess, he came in a hurry."
Master Ji took a breath, and it was a pity that God saw, when will His Majesty do things so quickly?
His Majesty was disgusted, so he quickly accelerated his pace, went outside the study door, and then went in.
"I'm going to see your Majesty."
"Get up."
Master Ji looked up and was shocked again. His Majesty actually brought Fukang only. You must know when His Majesty left the palace, he didn't bring a bunch of people with great fanfare...
However, this matter cannot be known to many people today.
Dan Tai Yan glanced at the seat opposite, and Tai Shi Ji immediately went over and sat down.
Fukang poured him a cup of warm tea, Master Ji nodded and smiled, and when he came to his senses, he realized...
No, this seems to be his mansion, why does he look like a guest?
But now this is not the point. Knowing why Your Majesty came, he didn't need to ask, Tai Shi Ji immediately explained the matter clearly, including every word Cheng Su said...
Dan Tai Yan had no expression, but his tightly pursed lips, gloomy eyes, and the teacup that had cracked in his hand proved that he was not as calm as he appeared...
Fu Kang, who had always hidden his emotions and was afraid of being disliked by His Majesty, was stunned and looked disbelief. After hearing such a big secret, his ears began to buzz. Did he not sleep well today?
What is Master Ji talking about? Princess Zhaoning is not the daughter of the late emperor? How is this possible?!
If Fushun Fu'an was here, he would probably be unable to control himself and exclaim.
After listening to Tai Shi Ji's speech quietly, Dan Tai Yan narrowed his eyes and his tone was neither anxious nor slow, "Tai Shi, what do you think?"
Hearing this question, Grand Master Ji paused. He really couldn't figure out the attitude of His Majesty, so he had to answer the truth: "I think... Although the woman surnamed Cheng looks a bit resentful to His Highness the Princess, this matter is mostly true. Li Ziyue is indeed suspicious. Of course, everything will have to be discussed when the palace maid comes."
Dan Tai Yan was quite satisfied with this answer, "I heard that the Grand Master just got a pair of jade chess pieces a few days ago?"
"As a matter of fact, you can't hide anything from Your Majesty." Hearing this, Master Ji understood instantly. While getting up and taking the chess pieces he had collected, he was secretly shocked. His Majesty even knew such a small thing...
After Taishi Ji took the chess piece over, Dan Tai Yan let go of the teacup covered with cracks in his hand...
So Master Ji watched him buy it for a lot of money, show off in front of his friends and Old Man Jing, and the purple jade gold-patterned glass cup that had been with him for more than ten years... In this way, it broke into a slag in an instant...
The not-so-high sound made his heart shatter into a slag in an instant.
It hurts, heartache...
But he didn't dare to say anything, so he could only endure the pain in his heart and play chess with Dan Tai Yan.
As the saying goes, misfortune never comes alone.
When the chess Ji Taishi and Dan Taiyan played forgot the most important thing, the confidant came to tell Concubine Li’s personal palace maid brought it.
Then……
Master Ji watched as His Majesty calmed on the surface and was excited in his heart, crushing a jade chess piece he was holding in his hand...
The powder floating in the air was a chess piece before, and his eyes turned dark, covering his cool heart. It couldn't work anymore, but now it was painful to breathe...
Damn, why did that woman find the Grand Tutor's Mansion? Why did he meet the woman when he returned to the mansion? If God gave him another chance, he would never be curious about the royal secrets he didn't know.
"Taoshi."
Dan Tai Yan's voice recalled Tai Shi Ji's mind. He became serious and the most urgent thing was to solve the current situation first.
...
Cheng Su's legs hurt when she knelt down. Finally, she waited for the palace maid to come, which was faster than she expected, but what she didn't expect was that the emperor actually came...
The palace maid was stubborn at the beginning and refused to say it. She was dragged out and chopped it up by Dan Tai Yan without saying anything. She was so scared that she gave it all honestly, just like what Cheng Su said, but she knew a little more.
"Your Majesty, the Empress was actually a little prince born in full term at the beginning. But the Empress was afraid that she would not be able to save the little prince, so she said it later, but that wild... the little princess was indeed born prematurely and was urged by medicine, so she was not in good health..."
The palace maid is now in her forties and fifty years. She knows such a big royal secret, and she doesn't dare to get married and have children. She just hopes that His Majesty can save her from her death penalty because of all her confessions...
Fukang took a breath, Oh my God! The raccoon changed to the prince! The eldest princess is really not the daughter of the late emperor! The princess is! The princess is the princess’s brother!
He couldn't help but start to be nervous about the eldest princess, and his heart began to stir up trouble. What should His Majesty do? How would His Majesty treat the eldest princess...
He looked at Dan Tai Yan with a prayer in his eyes. Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I hope that you will spare her life for the sake of the warmth of family affection that the eldest princess has brought you before, and she will not know anything.
Dan Tai Yan's thick and curly eyelashes drooped slightly, covering his stunning green eyes, and his fingers couldn't help but tremble...
Click!
In the bloody eyes of Master Ji, his chair armrest made of yellow rosewood was cracked...
He staggered and held the seat beside him.
Fu Kang's heart sank, it's over, His Majesty is angry...
Dan Tai Yan laughed softly, his eyes filled with joy and determination, Zhaoning, you can't escape...
