And obviously, Ling Heng pushed Su Yueming out today and killed Yi Qing on the spot just to shut them up and swallow the money that had already been obtained.
Zhu Qingmeng was not afraid at all and looked straight at Ling Heng.
All the scholars raised their heads, eagerly waiting for the prince to give an answer.
Ling Heng looked at them quietly for a while, then suddenly smiled: "I have to wait until Su Yueming sorts out the accounts before I can know who he asked and how much money he took, right?"
After saying that, he left without looking back.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince!" Zhu Qingmeng wanted to stop Ling Heng.
The imperial guards stretched out their hands to block it: "How dare you!"
Zhu Qingmeng was stopped by the imperial guards and became anxious. He shouted, "Your Highness, Lord Su has been dismissed and investigated by you. How can he take care of the accounts in prison? When will these accounts be settled?"
"Your Highness, please don't leave. You haven't answered your students' questions yet, Your Highness..."
After turning a corner, Ling Heng disappeared.
Li Shuangwan had a very bad feeling.
Just now, when Ling Heng turned the corner, he looked back at his cousin.
There was murderous intent in those eyes.
He whispered to Gu Xingyan, "Xingyan, can you send one or two secret guards with strong martial arts skills to secretly protect my cousin for the next two days?"
Gu Xingyan looked at her: "Are you worried that Ling Heng will do something to him?"
"Yes, my cousin is forcing him in public. Ling Heng is a vindictive man and will not let my cousin off easily. He may not do anything to him openly, but there is no guarantee that he will do something behind his back."
Gu Xingyan snorted: "You still care about him."
Li Shuangwan glared at him unhappily: "It's already this hour, and you're still being jealous."
Gu Xingyan raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Mo Lin, during this period of time, you must secretly protect Master Zhu. Remember, not a single hair can be lost!"
Mo Lin suddenly accepted such a big task, and stood up straight: "Yes."
Zheng Xinjiang began to drive away the students.
Li Shuang went to pull him in the evening: "Brother, let's go."
Zhu Qingmeng was a little unwilling and refused to leave: "Cousin, did you hear what the prince said just now? He didn't agree to return the money at all."
"Now that Su Yueming is in jail, how can he take care of the accounts? He clearly wants to swallow up the money. I have to ask him for an explanation."
Li Shuangwan pulled Zhu Qingmeng away and said, "He won't pay you back. You're just a scholar, what can you do?"
"What's wrong with being a scholar? Scholars can hold up half the sky. Hey, cousin, don't pull me, let me go, cousin."
How come my cousin is so strong?
Zhu Qingmeng was just a weak scholar. Being dragged by Li Shuangwan, a martial artist, he could only stagger forward.
Gu Xingyan's eyes fell on Li Shuangwan holding Zhu Qingmeng's wrist, and he had the urge to draw his knife and chop off his wrist.
Fortunately, reason prevailed over impulse in the end.
Li Shuangwan pushed the man towards Mo Lin and said, "Mo Lin, my cousin is now in your hands. Help me send him back to the Zhu Mansion immediately and keep watch over him. Do not let him leave the mansion. Tell my grandfather that this is my intention."
My grandfather didn't come because he was "recuperating from illness".
But she believed that as long as Maureen said this, her grandfather would know it without thinking.
"Yes, county lord."
"Alas, cousin, I have not yet finished my words. Oh, my goodness ..."
Zhu Qingmeng only let out a scream before he was picked up and thrown onto the horse's back by Mo Lin.
The horse let out a cry and ran away with all four hooves spread out.
Zhu Qingmeng was so scared that he screamed on the horse.
Fortunately, Morin was very good at martial arts and landed on the horse with just a few leaps.
Zhu Qingmeng was hung on the horse's back like a sack.
Li Shuangwan was both angry and amused.
……
Ling Heng returned to the East Palace and sat in the Wenhua Hall, feeling extremely angry.
In front of so many people, old King Huai actually slapped him.
As a crown prince, how will he rule the court officials in the future?
Cai Zhong quickly took an egg, wrapped it in gauze, and gently massaged Ling Heng. His voice was choked with sobs and he felt very distressed.
"Old King Huai is already old, why is he still so heavy-handed? Your Highness, please bear with it. I will roll you with an egg and it will be fine."
Ling Heng took a deep breath and waved away Cai Zhong's hand: "How old is the old King Huai this year?"
Cai Zhong thought for a moment and said, "I think he is about 98 years old. He is the uncle of the late emperor. He has not been involved in the affairs of the court for more than 20 years since the late emperor passed away."
"I don't know who whispered these words in his ear today. He is so old, but he still has to be carried here. Oh, what a sin. With his body, I am afraid he will fall down."
Ling Heng sneered, he was already ninety-eight years old, why didn’t he just die.
Cai Zhong took another egg from the basin and rolled it back and forth on his face.
At the same time, he continued to whisper in Ling Heng's ear: "Old King Huai is so old, it's really pitiful. His sons, daughters, grandchildren all died before him, and now he only has one great-grandson left, King Huai. It's a pity that his health is not good."
"Some time ago, I invited Doctor Luo from the People's Hospital to come to my house to see the patient. Doctor Luo is a great doctor. I think with her help, the little prince will recover soon."
Ling Heng's eyes did not move, but he took the words to heart.
"How is Father?"
"In reply to your Highness, the Emperor is still the same, sometimes awake and sometimes asleep. Eunuch Zhang said that he is awake less and less. Now he is asleep for eight or nine hours out of twelve hours a day."
"Lord Shen from the Ministry of Rites said that some things should be prepared early to avoid being in a rush when the time comes."
Is it a national mourning?
Ling Heng's lips curled up into a sarcastic smile. He had been in a coma for half a year, so he could indeed die.
Stand up and walk out.
Cai Zhong hurriedly chased after him: "Your Highness, where are you going? You still have a wound on your face, ouch..."
As Ling Heng walked out of Wenhua Palace, he saw the palace maid who used to serve Yi Qing coming out with a bag.
When I saw the palace maid, I suddenly remembered the tender moments with Yi Qing.
This woman was very sensible, knew how to behave, and never thought of asking for anything from him.
It's been very quiet all the time.
In bed, it's crazy.
I feel a little reluctant to kill him like this.
Ling Heng stopped and asked: "What are you going to do?"
The maid's eyes were red, and she had obviously been crying. "Your Highness, this is what Yi Zhaoxun asked me to prepare. Now... now it is not needed. I will deal with it."
"What is that? Bring it to me for a look."
The maid walked forward carefully and handed it over with both hands.
Ling Heng took it, opened it, and found only a few herbs. He picked them up casually. He didn't know anything about medicine, so he asked, "Why are they herbs? What kind of herbs? What happened to her?"
"Yes, it's the pregnancy-preserving medicine prescribed by Doctor Huang."
Ling Heng's heart skipped a beat, and he stared at the palace maid in astonishment: "What did you say?"
