Spirit of the Phoenix: 22. Strange
Li Shaolin originally did not intend to inform the little prince in front of him of the details of Qin Baolin's death.
The crown prince is right. He is a sixth-rank guard at the age of 30. He has worked hard for ten years but has not been promoted. It is really because of his poor background that there is no one behind him, and there is no power to rely on in the court.
The vigor of youth has been worn away in this changing situation. Li Shaolin now has seniors and juniors, he has seen the situation thoroughly, he will be the emperor carefully, he will only be a pure minister.
As long as he doesn't get forced into the palace like Emperor Zhongzong, it's fine for him to be the emperor's personal guard without merit or demerit.
But when the Qin Baolin case happened, the moment General Li saw the body, the cold winter of June 9 was poured down like a bucket of ice water, and even the bones were frozen to ice.
In an instant, countless thoughts exploded in his mind, but none of them could save his life.
Seeing the secrets of the royal family, General Li knew he was doomed. What can be done at this time is to seal off the gate of Yongxiang palace, including himself, not even an ant is allowed to step out of the vermilion gate.
The reason for being so cautious is just to prove that I never had the opportunity to confide even half a word to my wife and children at home, so as to avoid the whole family being ransacked and beheaded in the future.
"Your Highness treats you honestly, and I don't dare to lie to Your Highness." General Li looked deeply at the prince. Even a young **** knew to risk his life, so why didn't he want to live?
"Your Highness, I know that I will die."
"I would like to advise Your Highness that this matter involves the face of a saint. Although His Highness is a prince, he is also the son of a saint. There are some things... you shouldn't know. You really don't want to know." General Li Say it in one word.
General Li's words are beyond the bounds!
After all, the little prince was young, and when he heard this, he was furious, and was about to lose his temper, but Tai'an's icy little hand touched his chest.
The little prince calmed down a lot.
The face of a saint means that Qin Baolin's body lost the face of his father.
The little prince took a deep breath and said lightly: "Could it be that when the body was found, it was naked?"
General Li raised his head and stared at the crown prince like a torch: "No. When the body was found, it was well dressed and normal, with a peaceful face and no injuries."
"Only one thing, Qin Baolin's body is thin, but his lower abdomen is protruding. I have three sons, five daughters and eight children. You can tell at a glance... This is about five months pregnant."
What!
Tai'an covered his face with his hands, desperately suppressing the exclamation from his mouth.
The little prince stood up suddenly, his face flushed purple.
Qin Baolin, who has been in the palace for less than three months, is... five months pregnant.
A huge green hat was put on the head of the cowardly and incompetent emperor.
The whole world knows that the emperor is a puppet and a wimp, but even if he is a puppet and a wimp, he is first and foremost a man and an emperor. How can he bear this shameful humiliation?
What's more, the one who put on this green hat for him was a respectable gentry, who was hired by him as soon as he entered the palace, from the Qin family in Jinzhong.
There were no other servants around, but the little prince suddenly took two steps back, looked around, and exhaled foul breath.
"Let the Dali Temple of Xi Gongju Tai Hospital not rush here." After a long time, the little prince uttered the first sentence, "General Li, the Yongxiang is ordered to be closed. Not only is no one allowed to go out, but From now on, no one is allowed to enter."
"Before the matter is clarified, one more person is one more life. Why bother?" The little prince's voice was obviously sentimental.
General Li seemed moved, and responded in a low voice: "The rumors are true, the prince is indeed benevolent. On behalf of the dozens of adults who failed to enter the palace gate tonight, I thank the prince for his kindness."
The little prince waved lightly, turned around and entered the inner hall of Yongxiang.
He didn't even close the door tightly, Tai'an couldn't wait to jump out of his arms, and grabbed his shoulder: "Have the Qin family in Jinzhong gone crazy? Even a woman who has lost her virtue dares to be sent into the palace! Little prince, what should I do?" ? Such a shameful thing, will your father kill you as well?"
Her words sounded ridiculous, but after he laughed, he felt a sense of sadness deep in his heart, so he just looked at Tai'an's hair and said, "Before I report back to my father, I will personally examine the corpse..."
Before the words were finished, Tai'an was full of pride and loyalty, and chirped and promised: "Blessings and hardships. I will accompany you, little prince, let's go together!"
