Chapter 229 The Show Begins
Gua Ningchen was very satisfied with the meal, so he planned to help the prince...help him get on his way quickly.
Ning Chen leaned over and said, "Your Highness, I said before that as long as you need it, Ning Chen will do his best."
The prince looked ecstatic and could not hide it at all.
"Ning Chen, if you can help me secure the throne, I will never treat you badly."
Ning Chen sneered in his heart and said, "I think the most important thing now is to find the jade seal."
The prince nodded, "You are right. I have met the queen before, and I suspected that the jade seal had been taken away by her and Prince Fu... But then I thought about it, and the queen's reaction at that time did not look like she was pretending."
"So, I think where is the jade seal? Someone may know."
Ning Chen looked at him, "Who?"
"Eunuch-in-law!"
Without waiting for Ning Chen to speak, the prince continued: "Ning Chen, I want you to bring the troops from the musket battalion into the palace and force your father-in-law to take out the jade seal."
Ning Chen nodded slightly.
"At Xu time tonight, I will lead the soldiers of the Thousand Musketeers Battalion into the palace...His Royal Highness the Prince will greet you outside the palace gate, otherwise we will not be able to enter."
The prince's eyes were hot and he looked ecstatic. He nodded and said, "Okay!"
"Then it's settled! I have something else to do, see you in about time!"
The prince nodded and left with satisfaction!
Ning Chen looked at the prince's carriage going away, shook his head, sneered, and muttered: "The show will start soon... I'll solve it for you both this time!"
Immediately, he drove to the Supervision Department, and after a lot of hard work, he took Meng Jianbai to the Jiaofang Department.
On the way, Meng Jianbai saw the needle map.
For a doctor with superb medical skills, this is nothing.
After finishing the acupuncture, Ning Chen gave Meng Jianbai two hundred taels of silver notes... and promised to send him several jars of good wine in a few days.
Meng Jianbai promised to help Yudie perform acupuncture every day.
After sending Meng Jianbai away, Ning Chen returned and found tears in the corners of Yudie's eyes.
Ning Chen walked to the bed and sat down with the knife in hand, and touched her little face, "Why are you crying? Who bullied you?"
Yudie was full of self-blame.
"Ning Lang is also injured. At this time, the slave family should be serving Ning Lang... but now Ning Lang is asked to worry about the slave family's injury?"
Ning Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry! My injury is nothing, it's just a skin injury. It will be fine in a few days."
"It's you, how do you feel now?"
Yudie said softly: "The Nu family is much better. They can already turn over on their own."
Ning Chen smiled and said: "That's good! Your Majesty the Imperial Palace cannot leave the palace for a while, so Meng Jinyi will help you with the acupuncture... He is my colleague, and his medical skills are also very good."
"Yudie, I'm a little busy right now... I may not be able to see you every day."
Yudie held Ning Chen's hand tightly, with a sweet smile on her delicate face.
"It's okay! With Xiao Xing taking care of the slave family, Ning Lang can just do his own thing with peace of mind."
"Ning Lang, my family is so happy!"
Ning Chen rubbed her white and tender hands and said with a wicked smile: "I also have a good sex."
After staying in Jiaofangsi for a while, Ning Chen left and drove to Beidaying outside the city.
...
At the time of Xu, Ning Chen led a thousand soldiers from the Musketeers Battalion and appeared outside the palace.
These thousand soldiers were the same people who followed Ning Chen to attack the royal court of Beidu.
They looked at Ning Chen with eyes full of admiration.
It's fun to work with Ning Chen, and you get money.
After returning from the Northern Expedition, in addition to His Majesty's reward, Ning Chen also distributed all the rewards given to him by His Majesty to everyone, each of whom was one hundred taels of silver.
Their annual military pay is only a few taels of silver.
One hundred taels of silver was enough for them to marry and have children.
So, they are all grateful.
The prince has been waiting at the palace gate for a long time!
Seeing that Ning Chen had actually mobilized the troops from the Musket Battalion, the prince looked ecstatic.
He came forward with a smile on his face.
"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince!"
The prince quickly stretched out his hand to help, "Ning Chen, there is no need to be polite between you and me!"
"Come on, follow me into the palace!"
Now the prince oversees the country, so it is not difficult for him to bring a thousand people into the palace.
After entering the palace, a thousand people went straight to the Yangxin Hall.
On the way, the prince lowered his voice and said, "Ning Chen, my father-in-law is very skilled. Can this musket be used against him?"
"Prince, don't worry! No matter how skilled you are, you can't stop so many muskets."
The prince was overjoyed and patted Ning Chen on the shoulder, "As long as you help me, there's no need to worry about the big thing failing... Ning Chen, I will never treat you badly after it's done."
"Thank you, Prince!"
A group of people came to the door of Yangxin Hall.
Ning Chen and the prince walked into the Yangxin Hall with more than a dozen musketeers.
Emperor Xuan was still unconscious.
Eunuch Quan has been taking care of Emperor Xuan these days and never leaves.
The prince stopped hiding it and went straight to the point, "Eunuch Quan, do you have the jade seal in your hand?"
Father-in-law Quan shook his head.
The prince sneered: "Eunuch Quan, you are close to my father... I don't want to embarrass you. I hope you will wise up and hand over the jade seal."
Eunuch Quan still shook his head, "I don't know what the prince is talking about?"
"In that case, don't blame me for being rude!"
The prince was about to order Ning Chen to take down Eunuch Quan, when he heard a voice coming from the door: "Who is the prince going to be rude to?"
Ning Chen turned around and saw that the Queen and Prince Fu walked in with a few people.
The prince's expression suddenly changed.
Their actions were fast enough, but they didn't expect the Queen and King Fu to receive the news so quickly and rush over.
The queen glanced around coldly and said in a deep voice: "Isn't the prince too impatient?"
"My son, my son..."
The long-term suppression made the prince shrink in front of the queen, and he didn't know what to say for a while?
The queen snorted coldly and looked at Eunuch Quan.
"Eunuch Quan, have you seen it all? The prince is so ambitious that he leads others to force the palace. He wants to murder your majesty, seize the jade seal, and seek power and usurp the throne."
Father-in-law Quan said nothing.
The queen looked at the prince and said, "Treason, do you know your sin?"
The prince trembled with fright and fell to his knees on the ground, "I know my sin, please forgive me!"
Ning Chen was shocked. Isn't this too cowardly?
With such virtue, you still want to seek power and usurp the throne?
"I'll deal with you later!"
After the queen finished speaking, she looked at Eunuch Quan: "For the sake of Daxuan's stability, Eunuch Quan, should I leave this jade seal to this palace for safekeeping?"
Quan Gong said fairly: "The jade seal is not in my hands."
The queen's face darkened, "You little slave, how dare you not tell the truth in front of me?"
"My slave is telling the truth."
The queen's face turned completely cold.
"Eunuch Quan, have you followed His Majesty for so long? You must be a smart man... There are some things that you cannot keep as a eunuch."
"I advise you to hand it over obediently, and don't force me to use tricks on you."
Eunuch Quan was silent for a while, then nodded slightly, "I can hand over the jade seal, but I would like to ask the queen to let me out of the palace afterwards."
The queen's face lit up, "Okay, I promise you!"
"My dear, please wait a moment!"
After Eunuch Quan finished speaking, he turned around and walked into the inner room.
Upon seeing this, Ning Chen lowered his voice and said in the prince's ear: "Your Highness, one of us has a gun, what are you afraid of?"
"If the jade seal falls into the hands of the Queen and Prince Fu, then we are all doomed."
The prince was startled, yes... He now wants people and guns, so what is he afraid of?
At this moment, Father Quan walked out holding a box in both hands.
Inside the box is the jade seal.
The queen's eyes were hot and she moved forward.
At this time, the prince jumped up, rushed to the father-in-law, and snatched the box.
