Chapter 48 Must Express
Chapter 48 Must express
When Bai Jiuxiao appeared in Longyin Palace, it was already midnight.
Emperor Wen had already gone to bed.
If it were anyone else, Qin Fulai would have directly persuaded him to go back, or asked him to wait, but he knew how unusual Emperor Wen was towards Bai Jiuxiao, so he still bit the bullet and risked his life to awaken Emperor Wen.
Sure enough, when he heard that it was the Ninth Prince who was looking for him, Emperor Wen immediately put on his clothes and stayed down, and let people enter the palace.
Emperor Wen dismissed all the palace officials, including Qin Fulai.
"The imperial sister came into the palace late at night, but what happened?" Emperor Wen asked Bai Jiuxiao.
Bai Jiuxiao's eyes flashed slightly: "That badge of the Fourth Prince Sang Lin is fake."
"Ah?" Emperor Wen was surprised, "Didn't that one be appraised by the Ministry of Punishment?"
"It's so similar, it's almost like the real thing."
"Then how did you find out it was fake?"
"I accidentally broke it and found that it was empty in the middle. The real waist card cannot be empty." Bai Jiuxiao said.
Emperor Wen nodded.
"Then what should we do now? We must not make it public that the waistband is fake. That waistband is important evidence to prove the innocence of the emperor. If it is fake, then those ministers will have to accuse the emperor again."
"Yeah, but I can't use this as an excuse to send troops to attack Sang Lin. If the fourth prince comes up with his real belt and says that there is no such thing, it is a fake belt that we deliberately made in order to become famous.
, falsely accusing them will make us very passive, and we, who were originally a just party, will become unjust."
"It makes sense. When Sister Huang said this, I even doubted whether the fake waist card was also a part of Sang Lin's conspiracy."
"Well, so we can't go on a rash expedition, but I've spoken out again, and you've also issued an order." Bai Jiuxiao frowned.
Emperor Wen thought for a moment: "This is easy to do, it's an old method. I'm suddenly seriously ill and you can't get out, so the expedition is postponed."
Bai Jiuxiao looked at the young emperor's handsome face.
"Do you just trust me that much?"
"Of course, the emperor has worked hard for me, but I don't trust her, so who else should I trust?" Emperor Wen replied firmly.
"Don't you even suspect that I put the fake belt? After all, I took the initiative to be punished and went to the execution ground, and then the belt appeared."
"If the emperor says it's not true, it's not true. Why should I doubt it?" Emperor Wen asked.
Bai Jiuxiao said no more.
"Go to sleep. Don't take too many pills pretending to be seriously ill. It will hurt your health."
"Well, there is only one pill left. I don't know when I will see Si Ya again and ask him for some more."
After taking that pill, my illness became very serious, but even the doctors at the imperial hospital could not diagnose the disease. This was the most serious part.
Bai Jiuxiao sneered: "Are you still addicted to eating?"
"No, it can save people in critical moments, like this time."
Bai Jiuxiao looked at him, stepped forward and tightened the cloak on his shoulders, then patted his shoulder: "Thank you for your hard work, I'm leaving."
"Sister Huang, when I was reading at night, I accidentally knocked over the candlestick on the dragon table. Look, I got a big burn on the back of my hand. It hurts like hell."
The young emperor raised his burned hand to Bai Jiuxiao.
Bai Jiuxiao held his wrist and took a closer look. He found that a red piece the size of a copper coin was indeed ironed. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Why are you so careless? Did you apply ointment? I can't afford the blisters."
Emperor Wen nodded: "I passed it."
Suddenly something came to mind: "By the way, Sister Huang, we have to show something to Sang Lin. Otherwise, they will think that we have no one in Zhao. We can't frame Sister Huang like this even if we don't send troops."
Tolerate."
"Yes, it must be expressed."

The next morning, Emperor Wen did not go to court because he suddenly fell ill.
It is said that the entire hospital was dispatched at night, but no symptoms were diagnosed.
The morning meeting was presided over by the Nine Prince Bai Jiuxiao. The expedition to Sang Lin was originally scheduled to go out early in the morning, but it was urgently called off.
At the court meeting, a courtier asked: "Ninth Prince, could the emperor's illness be caused by Sang Linguo?"
"Checking." Bai Jiuxiao replied.
"It's too much for Sang Lin to bully others. We have to fight back, right?"
"Of course, this battle is just postponed, not not fought. In addition, don't they still have the eleventh prince in our hands? Since they don't care about his life or death, then don't blame us for being ruthless. I will write a letter
, the head of Concubine Xi and a severed finger of the eleventh prince were also attached, which were sent to Sang Lin by Deputy Envoy Lu personally and handed over to Emperor Sang Lin."

After going to court, Bai Jiuxiao went to Fuxia Palace.
The palace people were sweeping the courtyard and saw her wearing court clothes, holding a sword, and looking cold. They were frightened, threw away their work, and knelt on the ground, shivering.
"Where is Ning Qingzhou?" Bai Jiuxiao asked.
"You haven't gotten up yet." The palace maid replied.
Bai Jiuxiao walked into the inner hall and told the palace people in a deep voice: "Don't come in!"
Everyone couldn't get what they wanted, so they all knelt in the courtyard and didn't move.
Not long after, Ning Qingzhou's scream was heard from the inner hall.
After a while, Bai Jiuxiao came out of the inner hall, wiping the blood from the sword's edge with a handkerchief, and giving orders to everyone.
"Don't call the imperial doctor, don't bandage him!"
Bai Jiuxiao left Fuxia Palace for a long time before the people in the palace came back to their senses.
They all ran into the inner hall to take a look, and saw blood stains on the side of the couch. On the couch, Ning Qingzhou huddled in a ball, holding the quilt and shivering.
"Prince Eleven Eleven, are you okay?" the palace man asked.
Ning Qingzhou's face turned pale, with tears streaming down her face, and she ignored the palace people.
The palace people of Fuxia Palace later heard from other places that Nian Ning Qingzhou, the Ninth Prince, loved making woodworking toys and was kind-hearted, so he left ten fingers on his hands and broke off one of his toes.

Ning Shiqian stayed up all night.
"Master!"
When Shi Lei opened the door happily, he was still sitting at the table wearing the same clothes as last night, and the candle on the table was not extinguished.
"Master, didn't you sleep last night?" Shi Lei was surprised.
Ning Shiqian raised his eyes but didn't look back at him. There was a dark green mass under his eye sockets.
Shi Lei thought of business.
"Master, Bai Jiuxiao really didn't send out troops. It is said that Emperor Wen suddenly contracted a serious illness and Bai Jiuxiao couldn't get away, so the expedition was suspended."
Ning Shiqian blew out the candle in front of him, feeling an indescribable feeling in his heart.
It seems unexpected, yet it seems expected.
But Shi Lei was very excited: "Hei Yun Wai is so powerful that it really made Bai Jiuxiao give up. I think Emperor Wen's illness was just a cover. How can it be such a coincidence? It must be Hei Yun Wai's contribution. Master, are you right?"
Ning Shiqian said "hmm" and stood up: "But Da Zhao shouldn't say nothing."
Being framed like this by Sang Lin, even if he gave Heiyunwai a favor and didn't send troops, he must have taken other measures, otherwise, he wouldn't be Bai Jiuxiao.
Hearing his question, Shi Lei's face darkened.
"It is said that Bai Jiuxiao took Concubine Xi's head, cut off one of the eleventh prince's toes, and wrote a letter for the deputy envoy next to him to personally deliver to Sang Lin to the emperor."
