Chapter 328 A symbolic punishment

  After Su Jingchen's analysis, Yu Xiaolian also felt that King Jin was temporarily avoiding the prince's edge and recharging his energy.

   It’s just, what is the reason for the king of Jin that made the emperor so angry that he was condemned to return to the fief, and he was not allowed to enter the capital without summons?

   Facing Yu Xiaolian's doubts, Su Jingchen showed complacency, "I know!"

   "Then hurry up!" Yu Xiaolian glared at Su Jingchen.

  Su Jingchen analyzed, "King Jin already has a lot of followers in the capital, and last year he married Mr. Fu Ge's granddaughter as his concubine, which is even more helpful. Can the prince not be afraid?

  The tomb of the Prince of Mangshan was excavated. It looks like it should be done by the prince, but in fact, all the kings of Jin directed and acted on their own. "

   These are not just Su Jingchen's guesses, but what Ma Zhixian said before he died in order to survive.

Ma Zhixian didn't know that the person who killed him was Su Jingchen until his death. He thought that the person who came was the prince's man. In order to survive, Ma Zhixian simply abandoned King Jin and turned to the prince, begging Su Jingchen not to kill him. He was willing to come forward to correct King Jin's framing of the prince.

  Yu Xiaolian was a little confused, "Didn't the emperor punish King Jin for the robbery of the prince's tomb? Why do you still doubt the prince?"

  Su Jingchen said seriously, "Emperors have always been suspicious since ancient times. In fact, on the surface, King Jin lost to the crown prince, but King Jin actually won."

  Yu Xiaolian was puzzled, "How to say?"

"Yuzhou is the fiefdom of the King of Jin. According to the law, the King of Jin will take care of all the tombs of the fief and the tombs of the emperor's relatives. Once there is a tomb being excavated, the emperor will definitely be the first to hold King Jin accountable. So no one would have expected that King Jin would dig his own grave, and the first person everyone suspected was not King Jin.

But as you said, the current emperor has to rely on the prince to find him the life-saving blood bag of the Wu clan. Therefore, even if the emperor knew that the matter was probably related to the prince, he decided to turn a blind eye to protect his safety. Prince.

  Since the emperor chose Prince Gu Quan, he can only wrong Jin Wang. "

  Yu Xiaolian snorted, no wonder the emperor punished King Jin so painlessly, it turned out that it was just a symbolic punishment.

  But... Yu Xiaolian found a big problem.

   "Now that the crown prince is holding the emperor's life extension package, doesn't that mean that the emperor is indirectly controlled by the crown prince?"

  Su Jingchen glanced at Yu Xiaolian appreciatively. As expected of the girl he had his eye on, he discovered the problem so quickly.

   "And then? What else did you find?" Su Jingchen wanted to test Yu Xiaolian.

  Yu Xiaolian rubbed her chin, thought about it for a while, and after a while, Yu Xiaolian's eyes lit up, "So, King Jin is actually the emperor's escape route for him?"

  Su Jingchen smiled, "Not only King Jin, but also King Huainan and General Zhennan, they were all sent away from the capital by the emperor.

   These people seem to be performing their duties, but they are actually looking for new life-saving blood bags for the emperor. "

  Yu Xiaolian frowned, "Aren't two vital blood packs enough?"

"Not enough. I heard that the emperor had to drink a cup of fresh blood every day. Last year, the concubine Dai was pregnant with a dragon son, and the emperor didn't let her drink her blood. Later, in order to keep the dragon son, she took the initiative to take her younger sister as well. Pull it into the palace.

  Although the two sisters took turns to donate blood, but after a long time, their bodies couldn’t take it anymore. I heard that the two of them were approaching the end of autumn and couldn’t last long. "

  Yu Xiaolian thought of Yu Xiaolian being bled to death in the book, and her heart trembled.

   This way of dying is too cruel.

   What's more, she didn't understand, very confused, why those two witch-benefiting Gu girls were willing to be the emperor's live blood bag?

  If she was confined in such a way and bled every day, she would rather commit suicide than harm the old emperor.

   Living like this is actually better than being dead.

   "How do you know these things?" Yu Xiaolian suddenly realized that Su Jingchen seemed to know more than she did.

  Su Jingchen said indifferently, "I have been communicating with Jiang Lin, and he told me all these."

  Yu Xiaolian hadn't received a letter from Jiang Lin since half a year ago, but she didn't want Jiang Lin to keep in touch with Su Jingchen.

  Su Jingchen continued, "So, unlocking the longevity Gu on your body is our top priority right now."

  Let's, Yu Xiaolian raised the corners of her lips.

"I don't like to go round and round. I like to speak clearly when I have something to say. I have something to say to you openly and honestly." Yu Xiaolian didn't want to follow the routine in romance novels, and told Su Jingchen that she was missing. , or leave without saying goodbye, and then the two parted ways because of a misunderstanding.

  She wanted to spread the matter out, and it would be best to reach an agreement with Su Jingchen.

   "Say it!" Su Jingchen said.

  Yu Xiaolian thought about it in her heart, and then said, "I want to handle the matter of Meconopsis by myself..."

   "No!" Su Jingchen interrupted Yu Xiaolian with a firm attitude.

   "Listen to me..." Yu Xiaolian raised her voice.

  Su Jingchen held back what he was about to blurt out, "Say it!"

"I'll take care of the Meconopsis matter by myself. You stay in Los Angeles to study hard and prepare for the exam. Maybe when you pass the exam, I will have already released the shackles of longevity Gu. I will definitely come back to you when the time comes. Yes." Yu Xiaolian thought of a two-pronged approach, the best of both worlds.

But he didn't want to, Su Jingchen didn't even think about what Yu Xiaolian said, so he shook his head and said disapprovingly, "I understand what you mean, you don't want to delay my future, but I also said, we have to The first priority is to untie the Longevity Gu, and as for the scientific research, it doesn't matter if it is a few years later."

  Yu Xiaolian looked at the stubborn Su Jingchen and felt a little headache, "If the Meconopsis doesn't bloom, maybe we have to wait there, maybe three years, maybe five years, maybe ten years..."

  Su Jingchen interrupted Yu Xiaolian, "Even if it is ten years, I am willing.

  I have made up my mind, if you dare to sneak to the snowy mountains of the Western Regions by yourself, then you will die. "

  Yu Xiaolian tried to persuade again, "Oh, why are you so stubborn? You go to take the No. 1 Scholar exam, and I'll go find the antidote. We won't delay.

  Can't you let me be the first lady as soon as I come back? "

  Su Jingchen was unmoved, "Lian'er, how many decades are there in life?

   Ten years without you, I may live like a year.

  You have to know that you—to me, are much more important than the imperial examination. "

  Yu Xiaolian's heart softened, "You...why did you recognize me? Am I that good?"

  Su Jingchen was serious and affectionate, "You—very good!"

  Yu Xiaolian laughed, "If the two of us leave together, maybe it will be called elopement?"

  Su Jingchen took Yu Xiaolian's hand, "I'll go to your house to propose marriage in a few days, and send the marriage certificate and dowry to Taohua Village."

  Yu Xiaolian asked, "Does your father... agree? Have you told him? If you go to the Western Regions with me, how are you going to explain to your family?"

Su Jingchen had already told Su Dafu about getting engaged to Yu Xiaolian. Considering Yu Xiaolian's current fame and official title, Su Dafu agreed without much objection, but felt sorry for Su Jingchen again. Lin Zhilan, the daughter of the prefect, said that he still prefers that daughter-in-law.

  But Su Dafu knew that he couldn't control Su Jingchen, and he just scribbled a few words in ink, and let it go, not to mention that Yu Xiaolian was not bad, so Su Dafu felt a little relieved.
