Chapter 7;(1/2)
Trapped in a cocoon
The accompanying guards were also very angry.
Of course, they were not angry because of Xu Wenwu's shamelessness.
But the fact that the eldest prince appears here today is all because of Xu Wenwu's instigation.
Speaking of which, the eldest prince is also a foodie who loves delicious food, especially game.
No, Xu Wenwu didn't know where he got the news, saying that there was a kind of rare bird in the nearby mountains and forests, and the meat was extremely delicious.
How could the eldest prince hold back after hearing the news?
No, he immediately rushed over with people to kill him.
When they arrived at the mountain, the rare birds had not yet been seen. Xu Wenwu said that riding horses would disturb the rare birds and suggested that everyone walk.
As a result, the eldest prince was bitten by a poisonous snake.
If the eldest prince loses his life because of this, how can the guards like them survive?
At this time, I received the order from the eldest prince and a few guards, but it also depends on the identity of his son-in-law and the nephew of Zuo Xiangqin.
He struck hard and broke Xu Wenwu's legs.
The screams were harsh, and the eldest prince waved his hands in disgust, asking the guards to throw the guy out of the village.
Being thrown like a rag twice in one day was the first time Xu Wenwu encountered this in his life.
Especially this time, his legs were broken and he was thrown out. The guards would not care about his leg injuries.
No, after throwing it out, the scream was really miserable.
But no one present felt pity for him.
"Ziming, since you're fine, let's go back quickly."
"After I arrived, my father had already entered the palace. I am afraid that the emperor and empress already knew about this matter."
King Jin also spoke quickly from the side.
"Yes, let's go back quickly to save the emperor and empress from worrying."
The eldest prince nodded and turned to look at Lu Yaoyao.
"Miss Zhuangzhu, Zi Ming will take leave."
Lu Yaoyao smiled lightly and bowed before bowing.
Afterwards, a group of people helped the eldest prince to walk out. Before leaving Zhuangzi, the eldest prince turned to look at Lu Yaoyao.
"Miss Village Owner, the food you just sent is very good. After my prince recovers from his injury, can you come and taste it again?"
"Of course, it is an honor for a daughter of the people that His Highness the Prince condescends to come here."
Hearing this, the eldest prince grinned and was very happy.
Seeing him like this, Wang Yu and King Jin beside him both shook their heads and laughed. This guy really can't forget delicious food at any time.
The group mounted their horses and left, and Xu Wenwu was also taken away.
This matter is not over yet.
The eldest prince was injured. For such a major event, the emperor and empress would definitely have to intervene. As the protagonist, this guy couldn't be absent.
"The Xu family, I'm afraid this time even if I don't die, my skin will peel off."
Lu Yaoyao pursed her lips and smiled, feeling very happy.
Originally, she was thinking about whether to take action first and arrange for someone to teach the Xu family a lesson before they arrived.
I never thought that Xu Wenwu was so smart that he caused this natural disaster for himself.
Not bad, not bad, very good.
"Miss, do you think the emperor will just kill that guy Xu Zhao?"
Qiu Yu came over at some point and looked at her with a wicked smile.
"No, but there should be a serious punishment."
"Then the relationship is good, it's best to dismiss him as an official."
Lu Yaoyao shook his head, dismissal from office would probably not happen.
After all, he is a fourth-rank official minister, how can he just say so?
Moreover, the main responsibility for this incident lies with Xu Wenwu. Xu Zhao is at best a poor teacher, and at best he can be demoted.
But Left Prime Minister Gao Yanming is not a vegetarian.
She felt that there was a high probability that they would only be fined.
However, Xu Wenwu is afraid that it will not be so simple.
Imperial City, Dragon Head Hall.
Ever since Duke Zhen Guo finished reporting the matter, his face had been gloomy.
On the dragon chair, Emperor Hongwen's face was not pretty, but his eyes were narrowed, and the light of thought in his eyes was constantly flowing.
Neither the monarch nor the minister spoke. The eunuchs and maids accompanying him lowered their eyebrows and suppressed their breathing under such a low pressure.
"Your Majesty, the Queen is here."
Li De, the eunuch in charge of the royal palace, walked in from outside.
Just now after Duke Zhenguo reported the situation, Emperor Hongwen asked Li De to personally go to Fenghe Palace to invite the queen.
"Let her in."
As soon as Emperor Hongwen's voice fell, Queen Wang walked in quickly.
"I have met your Majesty."
Emperor Hongwen waved his hand.
"Mr. Zhen Guo, what's going on? I heard from Li De that Zi Ming was injured?"
The Duke of Zhen quickly saluted.
"Report to the Queen, half an hour ago"
He told the news exactly as he learned from Xu Wenwu.
"What!"
"bitten by a poisonous snake"
Queen Wang almost fainted, but fortunately Duke Zhenguo had quick eyesight and reached out to hold her.
"Your Majesty, I forgive you, my lord."
"It doesn't matter, my family doesn't have that much etiquette."
Emperor Hongwen waved his hand again.
"Slave dog, you are so brave, how dare you deceive me."
The queen, who had just calmed down, immediately raised her eyebrows and stared at Li De coldly.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me."
Li De quickly knelt down to apologize.
"Queen, I don't blame Li De for this. I asked him to say that. I was just worried that you wouldn't be able to bear it."
The emperor spoke again, and the queen withdrew her gaze from Li De.
"Brother, how is Ziming doing now?"
"And the master of the farm, you must bring her back to me. If anything happens to Ziming, I will cut her into pieces."
When she said this, Queen Wang's eyes shot out with extremely cold murderous intent.
"Queen, please calm down first."
"The eldest prince is a lucky man and will definitely be fine."
"I have asked Wang Yu to go there in person with the soldiers and doctors. No one can escape."
With the security of the town government, Queen Wang calmed down a bit.
"You said just now that Prince Jin is here?"
"Yes."
Queen Wang's eyes turned cold again, and she turned to look at Emperor Hongwen.
"I have already asked someone to investigate. Prince Jin was dragged along by Zi Ming on the way. It shouldn't be what you thought."
The Duke of Zhen also nodded slowly.
Queen Wang didn't say much, and the others waited in the Longshou Hall for about a quarter of an hour.
