Chapter 217 Liang Di Pan Fei'er is critically ill!
When Crown Prince Qin Jinan and his son rushed back to the capital, it was already noon the next day. People in the capital already knew that the crown prince's carriage would be arriving soon.
All the civil and military officials stood at the city gate in the hot sun at noon to welcome him. Although the crown prince had kept a low profile when he left, who dared to pretend to be a grandson and say they didn't know he was back? So they all came to the city gate spontaneously to welcome the crown prince Qin Jin'an back to the court.
Emperor Bogu also sent Wan'an, who was standing beside him, to lead a group of people to meet them at the city gate.
When Crown Prince Qin Jinan heard Jiusheng say that the civil and military officials outside the city gate and the eunuch Wan'an in front of His Majesty were all waiting to welcome him, he was very happy: "Great! I'm finally home!"
Crown Prince Qin Jinan got down from the carriage, and all the civil and military officials shouted: "Welcome Your Highness, may you live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years!"
Qin Jinan's tall and fat body was supported by Jiusheng and came in front of the civil and military officials. He asked Jiusheng to help the eunuch Wan'an up.
The Crown Prince Qin Jinan said with a kind smile: "Everyone, please stand up. There is no need to be polite. I went to Shunjing Prefecture this time, dealt with the affairs there, and came back quickly.
You all work hard for the court, I know it, you have worked hard!"
Everyone quickly said: Your Highness has worked hard. Your Highness has been running around for the country and the people. We are ashamed of ourselves!
Chen Shengda, who was standing behind the crowd, looked at the prince's team and did not see that old dog Wei Zhendong, so he felt a little better.
His father-in-law was in front, and his brother-in-law was also in front, so he just had to stay behind. He didn't want to stand out, after all, his reputation was not very good.
After being welcomed by all the officials at the gate of the capital, Crown Prince Qin Jinan rode in a sedan chair led by the eunuch Wan'an and went back to the palace!
Everyone noticed that there were several carriages behind the prince's carriage, which were obviously the carriages of the Zhao family of the General's Mansion!
The carriages of each large clan in this era all had obvious markings, and anyone with a discerning eye could tell who it belonged to at a glance!
Everyone couldn't help but feel a little confused. What was going on? Zhao Hai's family members actually came back with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Was there something strange going on?
I heard that Zhao Hai has a little girl in his family who is serving Zhao Hai's mother in Jiangnan. The great general Zhao Hai has been guarding the border all year round. His wife and son have long gone to the northern border with the army. Only the little girl in the family has gone to Jiangnan Prefecture, their ancestral home, to take care of her grandmother to fulfill her filial piety for the couple.
The little girl should be about sixteen or seventeen years old now, and it is probably time for her to return to the capital to be promised to someone else.
Speaking of which, Zhao Hai's mother was a childhood best friend of the current Queen. Before the Queen got married, she played with Zhao Hai's mother, Song!
Now it seems that Zhao Hai’s little girl should have come back to celebrate the Queen’s birthday.
No matter what everyone thought, the daughter of Zhao Hai had already separated from the prince's team and entered the city, and went straight back to the Zhao Mansion.
Besides, after Crown Prince Qin Jinan returned to the palace, Qin Beiyu also came back after arranging the Qin family army to return to the Xishan military camp. He followed his father directly to the Qianqing Palace to pay his respects and report safety!
Crown Prince Qin Jinan, accompanied by his son Qin Beiyu, strode into the Hall of Mental Cultivation in the Qianqing Palace.
They saw their old parents sitting in the hall. When they saw their father and son coming back, the old couple breathed a sigh of relief.
Even the emperor and empress who are of noble status are just like ordinary parents and they love their children and grandchildren!
Empress Su's vision was blurred by tears, and she turned her face away for fear that her son and grandson would see her. The old emperor was already old, and when he saw his son and grandson, his eyes were hot with excitement.
"The Crown Prince and Beiyu are both back, that's good! Is Beiyu fully recovered?"
Prince Qin Jinan's eyes were red and he smiled and said, "After I finished the work in Shunjing Prefecture, I immediately came back with Beiyu. We came back without waiting for my brother-in-law Wei Zhendong and his family!"
Emperor Bogu laughed loudly: "Prince, you dumped your brother-in-law. How are you going to tell the Crown Princess when you get home?"
Empress Su smiled and said, "It's good that you and Bei Yu are back, Crown Prince. We are relieved. Your father has been having trouble sleeping these days. Whenever he thinks of you and your son working outside, he can't sleep at night!"
"Cough cough...cough cough..."
Emperor Bogu coughed a few times. He had originally written a letter to his son, saying that his queen's birthday was about to come, and he was worried that the queen would be upset if he and his son didn't come back.
He didn't even mention that he couldn't sleep at night, but now his own queen has exposed his true identity!
Crown Prince Qin Jinan and his son are both smart people. They all know that as the old emperor and empress are the heads of the family, how can they not worry about their children and grandchildren?
Both the father and the son apologized together, saying that they had made their family worry!
Emperor Bogu smiled and said: "It's good that the prince is back, it's good that Beiyu is back!
You guys have dealt with the matter in Shunjing. Zhendong is also a capable person. He has a good grasp of everything he does. There shouldn't be any problem letting him stay to deal with the aftermath!"
Empress Su said worriedly, "I heard that the princess of Wei Zhendong's family also went to Shunjing Prefecture. She is pregnant and the journey is really hard for her!"
Prince Qin Jinan said with a smile: "Because the little girl Ruyi ran to Shunjing Prefecture to save our Beiyu, she went there without telling her family and the county lord. The county lord values Ruyi more than her life, so how could she not go!"
Speaking of Shen Ruyi, Qin Beiyu couldn't help but smile: "Uncle was made a scapegoat for this. We didn't dare to say that Ruyi came by herself, so we said that uncle wrote a letter to ask Ruyi to come. As a result, the county lady came to Shunjing Mansion and took her anger out on uncle. Uncle was scolded and beaten with a feather duster!"
The old emperor and the queen looked at each other and couldn't help laughing. Queen Su said: "Wei Zhendong is not stupid. He knows how to protect his little girl. But our Ruyi is really worry-free and sensible!"
Emperor Bogu: "Beiyu, Ruyi loves you deeply and ran so far to save your life. You must not let Ruyi down in the future!"
Qin Beiyu was so angry that he laughed: "Grandfather, Beiyu wants to ask, Ruyi is ours, then whose is Beiyu?"
Phew! Hahahaha…hahahaha…
Everyone couldn't help but burst into laughter. The old emperor blew his beard and glared: "You are so jealous, kid. I like Ruyi. Ruyi grew up in my family. She grew from a little big-headed baby to a pretty young lady. How can I not like her?
Besides, Ruyi said before that if you and Wanlin stole her dates, she would steal your father's and mother's love!"
Suddenly, Empress Su remembered something. She looked at the Crown Prince Qin Jinan and said, "Crown Prince, since you left the capital, Liangdi has been ill and is now critically ill. I don't think she will get better. These two days, your mother and your father have been discussing whether to let her family come to see her for the last time...
Since you are back, you should go see her. After hearing this, Crown Prince Qin Jinan said nervously, "Oh! Liang Di is critically ill. I will take my leave now. I will go back to find the Crown Princess and go with her to see Liang Di."
The emperor and empress looked at each other and nodded. Qin Beiyu also came out. After coming out, the expression of Crown Prince Qin Jinan became solemn.
"Bei Yu, do you know why Liang Di is so ill?"
Qin Beiyu stared blankly at his father, the prince. The afternoon sun was quite strong, shining brightly on the face of the prince Qin Jinan. Qin Beiyu did not understand why his father, the prince, asked such a question.
Crown Prince Qin Jinan glanced at his son, then turned to look at the roof of the palace in the distance.
“That being said, it was more than eight years ago, when your mother was almost poisoned to death.
Because someone used agarwood to make a chessboard, and used a wood that is incompatible with agarwood to make chess pieces, and gave them to your mother who loves playing chess.
The poisonous smell caused your mother to be poisoned and unconscious. It was Ruyi and the county lord who ran into her when they came to the palace to express their gratitude. Ruyi used the water in her bamboo tube, which happened to detoxify the poison!
Your mother finally managed to save her life!
But Beiyu, do you know who gave the chessboard to your mother? "
Qin Beiyu was horrified. He felt horrified. Such a vicious trick was really hard to guard against. It was well known that his mother loved playing chess.
If you poison the chessboard, it will be detected immediately, but if you use something that counteracts it, the gas emitted when mixed together will be impossible to detect!
He instantly thought of Pan Liangdi’s serious illness, and Qin Beiyu looked at his father in disbelief!
Prince Qin Jinan closed his eyes, looked at the rooftops in the distance, sighed and said: "It was Liang Di, although she pushed the matter to the Pan family at the time, but I know... this matter was definitely done by her!
For so many years, I have been wary of her and did not want to kill her, but I was worried that I would not be able to stop people from saying that the royal family had let down a loyal descendant!
But this time, because you were seriously ill in Shunjing Mansion and had to leave the capital, I was worried that this would give Pan Liangdi another chance, so I took the initiative. "
Qin Beiyu...
