Chapter 113: Captive
Rong Jin had been silently paying attention to her every move, wishing he could put his eyes on her. When he noticed something was wrong with her, he immediately rushed over, hugged her and held her firmly in his arms. .
"Qing Qing!" He looked down, his anxiety visible to the naked eye: "Qing Qing?!"
Mu Yunqing closed her eyes tightly and did not respond.
Rong Jin's face was as dark as water, and his eyes were cold as he glanced at Shen Miaoyin beside him: "What did you do to her?"
"I didn't..." Shen Miaoyin was forced by his momentum and was so frightened that she couldn't speak clearly. She shook her head in confusion: "I didn't do anything... She fainted suddenly..."
The little maid next to her also echoed: "This slave can also prove that our empress kindly invited the county master to go out for a walk to relieve the drunkenness. She fainted for some reason. Perhaps the county master himself is weak and beautiful. It will break in the wind, but it has nothing to do with our queen."
After being reminded by this maid, Shen Miaoyin suddenly realized and hurriedly maintained her momentum and said: "Little prince, please be careful. Qing'er is my sister. Even if I treat her well, how can I harm her?" Where's the fainting?"
The commotion at the door naturally attracted the attention of Emperor Liang and others, so they immediately ordered someone to summon the imperial physician.
Rong Jin picked up Mu Yunqing and walked towards the side hall. When he passed by the palace maid who had just spoken, he kicked her far away. After falling down the steps, he rolled several times before he stopped. He vomited blood and fainted. The people in the palace were so frightened that they all took a deep breath and buried their heads deeply, not even daring to breathe out.
Shen Miaoyin let out a short scream, covered her mouth and looked at Rong Jin in horror: "You..."
Rong Jin didn't even look at her, and carried Mu Yunqing directly to the side hall. He only said coldly: "She is worthy of making irresponsible remarks about Qingqing!"
"You, you dare to hurt someone in front of the emperor, you are so bold!"
"I am here to teach the ignorant palace servants a lesson for your Majesty. If Concubine Xian has some free time, she must control her properly." After saying this, he disappeared at the door of the side hall and did not say anything to Shen Miaoyin at all. opportunity.
Shen Miaoyin also wanted to cry to Emperor Liang, saying that Rong Jin was rude, but she saw the queen secretly shaking her head at her, indicating that she should not act rashly.
Helpless, she had no choice but to endure this tone.
The queen felt like she had a mirror in her mind. It was impossible for the emperor to punish Rong Jin for a mere palace maid, not to mention the palace maid, even the palace concubine Emperor Liang would not say anything.
But just because you don't say it in your mouth doesn't mean you don't think about it in your heart.
She wanted to see how long His Majesty could tolerate the father and son in Prince Kang's mansion being so bold!
Originally, the queen felt sorry for Rong Heng's failure to get closer to Rong Jin, but now she doesn't feel that way. She hopes that Rong Jin and the prince's party will get closer. In this way, in the future, His Majesty will report to the Kang Palace. When trouble comes, the prince can't even think of picking it off.
Thinking of this, the queen couldn't help but smile coldly in her heart. When her eyes moved from the prince to her son, she immediately turned from vicious to gentle. However, she found that Rong Heng had been staring in the direction of the entrance of the palace. If Something to think about.
Seeing this, the queen couldn't help but feel strange and wondered what the child was looking at...
She naturally didn't expect that it didn't matter what Rong Heng was looking at at the moment, but what he was thinking was important.
At a certain moment, he was actually a little worried about Mu Yunqing. For some reason, Rong Jin's "Qing Qing" seemed to be called into his heart, arousing the charm in his heart that he had not seen for a long time. thought.
***
In the side hall.
Rong Jin stayed by Mu Yunqing's couch, holding her hand tightly and refusing to let go.
It wasn't until the imperial doctor arrived that he released his hand and allowed the imperial doctor to take his pulse, but he stared at him coldly. He was so frightened that the head of the imperial hospital broke out in cold sweat, and the hand that took Mu Yunqing's pulse was trembling.
And the closer you get to the back, the more the doctor's hands are shaking.
Something is wrong... The Changle County Lord's pulse was stable, full and strong, and did not look like he was ill. But why did he suddenly faint?
Taking the pulse took too long, Rong Jin lost all his patience and said in a cold voice: "How?"
Doctor Zhang trembled with fright, quickly retracted his hand and knelt on the ground: "Back to the young prince... County Lord, County Lord, she is not in serious health. Maybe she fainted because of fatigue in recent days, coupled with panic and worry.
Already..."
Seeing that Rong Jin didn't say anything, he hurriedly continued: "I'll go and prescribe some nourishing medicine, and I'll prepare it for the county master for the time being."
Rong Jin still didn't speak, and only turned his gaze back to Mu Yunqing. Doctor Zhang felt like he was being pardoned, and quickly got up to write a prescription. As he walked, he wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeves, glad that he had escaped from the hell gate and came back.
.
It’s not that he wants to mislead people by being a quack doctor, but he can only do this if he wants to survive in the palace. If he bluntly said that the Lord of Changle County was in good health, not to mention that the young prince would not believe it. Even if he believed it, wouldn’t he be saying it in disguise?
The Lord of Changle County pretended to be sick. How could the young prince let him go afterward?
Why not take advantage of the situation and prescribe some unnecessary medicine for her to take first? If she is really sick, although this medicine cannot cure it, it will never kill anyone; on the other hand, what if she is not sick and takes the medicine and falsely claims that she is well?
That's all, everyone is in peace.
Doctor Zhang thought carefully and prescribed a soothing medicine.
The palace maid brought it to Mu Yunqing to feed him, but she saw Rong Jin reaching out without squinting: "I'll do it."
"...Yes." Although the palace maid was astonished, she had already seen the fate of the palace maids around Concubine Xian, so she didn't dare to hesitate at all. She hurriedly offered it respectfully, and then signaled the other palace people to quietly exit the side hall.
With no one around anymore, Rong Jin slowly relaxed his frown, put down the still steaming medicine, and whispered: "There is no one left."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Yunqing, who was still unconscious, squinted one eye slightly and then opened his eyes completely.
She was pretending to be dizzy.
Having heard Rong Lie say that Shen Miaoyin was pregnant, she had doubts in her heart. Just now when she was chatting with him, she secretly took Shen Miaoyin's pulse. At first glance, it did look like a happy pulse, but in reality it was not.
Mu Yunqing didn't know whether it was the imperial doctor who deceived Shen Miaoyin, or Shen Miaoyin herself wanted to fake a pregnancy to win favor, but no matter which way it was, it was best to stay away as much as possible, otherwise she would be the first to be suspected if something went wrong with the son in her belly.
He was the one who ended up with her.
It was precisely for this reason that when Mu Yunqing heard that Shen Miaoyin was going to take him out to talk alone, alarm bells went off in Mu Yunqing's heart.
She could rely on her medical skills to reveal that Shen Miaoyin was not pregnant in public, but the palace concubine was pregnant, and the imperial doctor had to ask for Ping'an Pulse every day. It was impossible that no one would find out with so many national experts. Since they found out but did not dare to say anything, it was obvious that it was either
Someone is secretly helping Shen Miaoyin, or someone is setting up a trap for her. No matter which one it is, it will be difficult for others to get into this troubled waters.
To take a step back, even if she successfully exposed Shen Miaoyin's false pregnancy, the crime of deceiving the emperor would affect the whole family even if it did not punish the nine clans. It would be okay for Shen Yan to break away from the Hou Mansion, but there was still Shen Miaohuan.
Therefore, Mu Yunqing cannot attack for the time being and can only defend.
She glanced in the direction of the palace entrance, then lowered her voice and said to Rong Jin: "I'm not good at pinching you secretly to hint that I'm pretending to be faint. Why did you still hurt the palace maid?"
Rong Jin looked at her intently and said calmly: "It's good that I didn't kill her directly."
Mu Yunqing: "..."
Seeing that she suddenly stopped talking, Rong Jin's eyes moved slightly and asked: "Are you unhappy?"
He frowned: "Because I hit too hard?"
"Am I so ungrateful in your mind?" Mu Yunqing held his hand soothingly and said softly: "I'm just worried that if you are so unscrupulous, you will fall into the eyes of someone with intentions, and if you come in front of His Majesty,
Wouldn't adding or subtracting some words ruin the relationship between the old prince and His Majesty?"
After saying that, Mu Yunqing was suddenly stunned.
wrong!
If Rong Jin is really just the son of the old prince, her worries are good, but after all, he still has the identity of the Northern Qi royal family. Could it be that... he did this intentionally, deliberately trying to provoke discord between Emperor Liang and the old prince?
Thinking of this, Mu Yunqing looked at Rong Jin with flickering eyes, filled with surprise and uncertainty.
Rong Jin didn't say anything, but poured the medicine on his own, then reached out to cover Mu Yunqing's eyes, and said coldly: "Close it, and I will take you out of the palace."
Mu Yunqing suppressed her doubts and closed her eyes obediently.
Indeed, now that she had pretended to be faint, there was no need to stay any longer. As for the Queen and Shen Miaoyin's actions today, she had to arrange a way out before she could attack them.
Because Mu Yunqing was unwell, Rong Jin took her out of the palace first after explaining the reason to Emperor Liang.
On the way, Rong Jin suddenly said that he would go back if he had something to do. Mu Yunqing didn't think much, and still sat in the carriage and prepared to go back to the Marquis' Mansion. But after going around a street, the carriage suddenly stopped, and the door was opened with a knife from outside.
, a group of masked men stood outside the car!
One of them stretched out his hand to grab Mu Yunqing and kidnap her away, but was stopped by one or two, but after all, it was difficult for him to fight with four fists. After being entangled, he had no time to take care of Mu Yunqing.
As for Mu Yunqing, although the narrow space inside the carriage made it easier to use concealed weapons and poison, all of the people who came were highly skilled in martial arts, and there were so many of them. They took advantage of the fact that the others were knocked down and kidnapped them.
Get Mu Yunqing and leave.
