Chapter 224: Asking for Excuse
Because it was in the Royal Garden, even though he and Aqi were sharing a ride, and had the legitimate opportunity to hug Aqi's strong waist that he had long speculated about, Jia Lian still did not make any mistakes. .
Returning to the camp, a team of troops were sent to guard the scene, and then they discovered that the entire royal garden was suddenly surrounded by soldiers!
People from the Prince's Palace and the Royal Forest Army came one after another to inquire. Each person in charge had a handsome face, as if his biological father had died.
When my subordinates inquired about it, they found out that it was indeed about the hunting ground.
The prince organized the royal children and the best among the princes and grandsons of Beijing to carry out hunting games in the area surrounded by the imperial guards.
Who would have thought that Her Royal Highness Princess Zhaoyang and her two maids would lose control of their horses...
Fortunately, Princess Zhaoyang was not seriously injured, only her two One of the maids was injured on the spot, while the other was carried by an out-of-control horse and broke out of the protective circle of the Royal Forest Army.
Since they were just two maids, no one around Princess Zhaoyang paid much attention to them. After all, it was just as well that the princess was fine.
Who would have known that Princess Zhaoyang seemed to have a sister-in-law relationship with the maid. When she saw her horse frothing at the mouth and fell to the ground, she immediately snatched the horse of a nearby competitor, risking her life. He seemed to be chasing him out...
The information he obtained was obviously inconsistent with what Jia Lian had guessed.
Hearing from Xie Jun that the handsome and vigorous woman coming behind claimed to be Princess Zhaoyang, Jia Lian had some idea.
Sure enough, it was the beauty who lied to him, she was not Zhaoyang! But if she is not Princess Zhaoyang, what is her identity?
Judging from her age, she does not look like a princess or county princess in the royal family who has not yet left the cabinet, because if the princesses and wives grow up to be this old, they should all be married.
After getting married, it is naturally unlikely that a royal daughter will accompany the princes on outings.
Could it be that she is the Crown Princess? Otherwise, we cannot explain the current situation...
"General Jia, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince declares that you will come to Liufeng Courtyard immediately for an audience."
Suddenly, the chief eunuch of the Prince's Mansion came in person. Xuan Jia Lian.
Just when Jia Lian suspected that he had taken advantage of the crown prince, he heard the prince summon him, and he couldn't help but murmur in his heart.
After all, I didn’t dare to be careless and followed the eunuch to the central royal garden.
……
Sure enough, the whole Royal Horse Garden felt a bit jittery.
Just live in the princeIn the Liufeng Courtyard, Jia Lian saw four or five levels of checkpoints along the way. Even those princes and princes who were usually high-spirited and wanton with sex were staying in the makeshift tea shed to drink tea and chat.
But when they saw Jia Lian passing by, they seemed to be afraid that he would hear some secrets, so they kept silent.
Enter Liufengyuan, wait outside the corridor for a while, and then be passed into the hall.
"Jia Lian, the last general, comes to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Entering the palace, Jia Lian performed the courtesy of a military audience in accordance with the rules of the Wei Dynasty.
It is not appropriate for a fourth-rank commander to claim to be the last general in front of the prince, but the title of second-rank general is enough.
"Get up..."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
After Jia Lian got up, he realized that besides the prince, there were several other people in the palace. A handsome young man in bright clothes.
One of them was Prince Duan, whom he had never known each other before!
Prince Duan stared at him with eyes full of jealousy. When he saw him looking over, he turned away bitterly.
Hmph, lucky guy!
The prince seemed to have a certain understanding of Jia Lian, so he did not say anything more. After looking at Jia Lian twice, he asked in a deep voice: "I heard that you saved the maid next to Zhaoyang. ?”
Maid? The elder brother said yes, that’s it.
"Back to Your Highness, yes."
"What was the situation at that time..."
"At that time, the princess's maid came to the end of the horse. At the defensive level set up by the leader, the general was afraid of hurting her, so he did not dare to stop her. He could only let her pass first, then catch up with her on horseback, and help her control the out-of-control horse.
Later, Princess Zhaoyang arrived and took her back."
Of course, Jia Lian wouldn't say that she hugged her and rolled on the ground three or four times!
The prince seemed to let out a sigh of relief, and a lot of the gloom disappeared from his gloomy face. After all, his eyes looking at Jia Lian softened a lot.
"Very good, you did a good job... Today, you have made a great contribution..."
The prince seemed to be a bit embarrassed and hesitant in his words. After finally giving up, he paused and ordered: "The improper arrangements of the Prince's Palace today caused Princess Zhaoyang to be frightened, and I feel uneasy.
After you go down, take the horse that the princess's maid left behind. Deal with it on the spot, don't make it public, let alone spread it to the outside world, it will only make others panic, do you understand?"
Jia Lian immediately knew in his heart that the prince was telling him andThe people under him keep secrets and don’t say things they shouldn’t.
"You will finally understand!"
Seeing Jia Lian so decisive, the prince felt even more satisfied.
He glanced at Prince Duan Prince Wei Xian beside him, as if he wanted to say something, but a eunuch came out of the back hall and whispered a few words to the prince.
The prince's complexion changed slightly, he nodded immediately, then stood up and said to Jia Lian: "You are a rare young hero in this dynasty. I am very happy that you have made another great contribution this time. .
As long as you remain so loyal and loyal, the future will be yours.
As for your feud with Crown Prince Duan, I am fully aware of it. Right and wrong are no longer important. You two have learned your lesson.
From now on, you should abandon your past grudges and assist this dynasty with all your heart, so that you can do your duty as a minister."
When the prince spoke, although Wei Xian wanted to beat Jia Lian to death, he still stood up quickly after hearing the words, but did not speak first and waited for Jia Lian.
How could Jia Lian not understand what he meant, and raised his hands to the prince: "I will obey the prince's order."
After saying this, he also said something to Wei Xian He handed over his hand and said: "I hurt the prince because of what happened last year. I did something wrong. Please forgive me."
Jia Lian's magnanimity not only impressed others, but also Wei Xian was extremely disappointed.
He just thought, it would be great if Jia Lian didn't know how to praise, it would be better to offend the prince because of this, and then let's see how I can kill him!
Bah, you still talk about being a filial son, but that’s all. He can forgive me even if I scold his father...
"Where is it, Jia, General Jia is so polite... …"
" He handed over his hand casually, and Wei Xian said, "I'm just giving the prince face."
The prince then laughed and said, "Haha, that's right. I've prepared a pot of thin tea. Here are the rare young talents of our country. You might as well chat here while you have the opportunity. I have something to say.
I have something important to do, so I’m sorry.”
It turns out that the young talents in the heart of the prince include people like Wei Xian, Jia Lian suddenly I feel that just now the prince called him a "young hero", which may not be a compliment...
...
The prince walked out of the palace, and the smile on his face disappeared. , turned into a dull look on his face, and walked to the Star Observation Tower next to him without saying a word.
When they arrived at the main building, they saw the third prince coming there under the guidance of a eunuch. The prince's face suddenly became even worse, even slightly ugly.
The third prince was as usual. When he saw the prince, he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "I have met the eldest brother!"
The prince then looked at the third prince with a serious eyebrow. After a while, He said coldly: "Third brother, I know how dissatisfied you are with me, but using such a method is too much, right?
If something goes wrong today, no matter how flawlessly you act, , you and I are both to blame for our death.
You are so brave, you really do anything to deal with me..."
The expression of the third prince changed slightly, "What does the eldest brother mean by this? Does the eldest brother think that I did not do what happened today?"
"Hmph, was it you who did it? You know it in your heart!"
The prince flicked his sleeves and stepped into the main hall.
The third prince looked extremely ugly. He took a deep breath and followed the prince in.
Turning around the layers of palace curtains, turning a blind eye to the maids and others standing inside, until they reached the main hall, they knelt down together with the prince:
"Sun Son, I came here to apologize to the imperial grandmother..."
