Jade Without Fragrance Chapter 159

   Chapter 159 Wang Fu

  Prince's left hand is broken.

I don't know from whom the    spread the word. When the two officials met, they were often hesitant to say anything. They tested each other and confirmed that they both knew the same gossip.

  Prince is the heir of Jiangshan Sheji. Although the loss of his left hand has little effect, it is not good to have a disability!

   For a time, people were panicking, and there was an unspeakable impetuousness in the air.

  Lin Hao heard the news from Qi Shuo.

  The two hadn't seen each other for a while. The most recent contact was when the Jingwangfu enthusiastically invited Imperial Doctor Qian to see Lin Chan. Lin Hao guessed that it was Qi Shuo's idea, and hurriedly sent Baozhu to quietly tell the other party the truth.

   It was when Lin Chan was "severely ill". To be on the safe side, Lin Hao never went out of the General's Mansion, so as not to arouse suspicion.

  The girl in her family was seriously ill, so she offered to quit her relatives because the general's mansion was sensible, so as to save King Wei's reputation as a wife. If the emperor knew that it was pretending to be sick, it would be courting death.

   Qi Shuo stared at Lin for a while before saying, "I didn't expect that the general's residence would withdraw the marriage of King Wei."

   People who don't play cards according to common sense suddenly feel that it is more difficult to marry a good man.

  Lin Hao smiled: "Grandmother and mother are indeed different from other parents. They care more about our safety and happiness, not power and wealth."

  Qi Shuo coughed lightly: "My father and mother are the same."

  Lin gave him a good look, and his expression was a little strange: "The main reason is that the palace is already powerful and rich enough."

   Going a step further, there is only that seat.

   Qi Shuo drank tea to hide his sadness.

   So his background is also a disadvantage in the eyes of the General's Mansion, and he really has a long way to go.

   "The news that the prince's left hand was abolished, did the prince spread it?"

Qi Shuo nodded: "Well. The prince calculated the defeat of King Wei, and he was in a depressed mood. It is said that his most trusted servant Wang Gui died. Spreading this news at this time is nothing but worse. The prince is used to being alone, and encountering setbacks. Instead of introspecting, you will do more and more mistakes.”

   "Just die." Lin Hao answered.

  Qi Shuo smiled and nodded: "Yes, die."

   "How did that Wang Gui die?"

"The news that came out was suicide, but I guess it was the emperor's hand." Qi Shuo raised the teapot and poured tea for Lin Hao, "The prince now favors a little servant named Wang Fu, who has emerged very quickly, just in time. Seizing the opportunity of Wang Gui's death, I don't think it's easy."

   Lin Hao's heart moved: "The prince is very well informed."

  Qi Shuo took the teacup in his hand for a while, and said without changing his face: "The prince is immoral, and he has to guard against it for self-protection."

   He took out a plain purse from his sleeve and pushed it in front of Lin Hao.

   "What is this?" Lin Hao was successfully distracted.

   "Dividends from restaurants."

  Lin Haosha was interested in opening the plain purse and took out a small silver ingot.

   After a while of silence, she sighed: "It's not easy to make money."

  It is difficult for Prince Jing to pay a special price to pack it.

   After all, it was a dividend from his own investment. Although Lin Hao disliked it, he still kept it.

   Qi Shuo watched her put away the plain purse, the corners of her mouth could not help raising, and she suggested, "Would you like to go and see our business?"

   Lin Hao's mouth twitched slightly.

   Divided the business of ten taels of silver...

   "Go and see."

   Emperor Tai'an sensed something was wrong from the flickering eyes of his ministers, and when he asked Cheng Maoming, the commander of Jinlinwei, did he know that the news that the prince's left hand was abolished was leaked.

   "Who spread it out?"

  Cheng Maoming didn't dare to look at Emperor Tai'an's angry face: "This minister is incompetent, it's really hard to find the source of this rumor..."

   Emperor Tai'an slammed the table, swallowed the reprimand, and sent Cheng Maoming away and ordered Liu Chuan to call the prince.

   "The son has seen his father." After the death of Wang Gui, the prince's nest has never been out in the East Palace, and he has not heard the rumors outside the palace.

   And sooner or later this news will reach the prince's ears.

  Emperor Tai'an had already seen that the prince couldn't help himself, so it would be better for him to tell the story than to wait for the prince to hear it.

   Sure enough, the prince couldn't hold back after hearing it: "Who spread it out?"

   Looking at the prince's beastly distorted expression, Tai'an frowned: "You're a big man, can you hold your breath?"

   "Father, everyone knows that his son is disabled!" the crown prince shouted.

   How to make him calm down? When others see him in the future, they will think of his flaws!

   "It's just that the left hand can't use the force. If you act in a proper manner and show the demeanor of the prince, no one will care about this small flaw." Tai'an Emperor persuaded in a deep voice.

   This is not only an admonition to the prince, but also a consolation to himself.

   recognized the heir for more than 20 years, and of course he didn't want to replace it unless it was a last resort. I hope the prince will give him enough reasons to persevere, instead of disappointing him again and again.

   Emperor Tai'an looked at his son who had loved him for many years, and his heart was empty.

   He knew that it was a lack of faith.

   "After a while, the envoy of Yuliu will come to meet you. You don't want to appear in front of the envoys of other countries in this dejected appearance."

   Yuliu is neutral between Dazhou and Qi, and whichever side is strong will show weakness to which side, a typical grass on the wall.

   Emperor Tai'an attached great importance to Yuliu's position. Although Yuliu is small, it has developed well recently. If she really wants to help Qi State wholeheartedly, it will break the current delicate balance.

   "My son knows."

   Although the prince had a tyrannical temper, he restrained himself in the face of Emperor Tai'an, and returned to the East Palace to vent.

   Another heart-pounding sound of beating and smashing echoed in the hall.

   At this time, only Wang Fu dared to lean over and speak: "Your Highness, drink a cup of tea to moisten your throat."

  The prince raised his hand and knocked over the teacup, his heart was so irritated that he had nowhere to vent: "It's been really bad luck recently!"

   "His Royal Highness, when things go wrong, the more you have to keep a good mood, so that you can move forward." When the prince was angry, others only spoke with trembling, while Wang Fu's tone was calm and gentle, with an inexplicable power to soothe people's hearts.

   So the prince listened a little: "Keep a good mood? With so many bad things, how can I keep a good mood?"

Wang Fu glanced to his left and right, and when he saw that the palace servants were standing far away, they dared not raise their heads, and said in a low voice, "This servant knows an elixir called 'Five Colors Dispersion'. Don't try?"

   "Is there such an elixir?"

   Got Wang Fu's affirmative answer, and the prince couldn't help but be moved.

   He was so fed up with the bad mood that it took his breath away.

   And Wang Fu's recent performance has long been trusted by the prince. After a little hesitation, the prince nodded: "Then I'll give it a try. If it doesn't work, I want you to look good!"

  Wang Fu smiled: "His Royal Highness will know after trying it."

   With Wang Fu's offering of medicine, the East Palace finally regained its calm, and some yamen were busy for the arrival of the Yuliu messenger.
