Chapter 360

In Chaoyang Palace, people come and go.

The chamberlain who was responsible for delivering the things smiled and directed everyone to arrange everything properly. Finally, he asked the Twelve Prince how the chamberlains were doing. If he felt there was something bad, he would replace them.

As for where the replaced person will go, the chamberlain did not say.

The people who followed the Twelve Princes out had indeed frightened faces and wanted to kneel on the ground.

"It's...very good." The Twelve Prince said with a slightly trembling voice: "Thank you very much, my mother is caring."

The chamberlain didn't mind that the Twelve Prince talked little, so he said a few more words before leaving.

"Go down." The twelfth prince tried to maintain a serious expression. Soon, only the twelfth prince and a young eunuch were left in the main courtyard.

The little eunuch shouted excitedly: "Your Highness, look, these are Yun brocades. Oh my god, they are so silky and smooth, even smoother than the skin of a small child. If they are made into underwear, they will definitely be very comfortable."

The little eunuch suddenly noticed a box and exclaimed: "Wow, Your Highness, look, it's a whole box of silver carbon. There is so much carbon, but it's still good carbon."

As he spoke, the little eunuch choked up.

Even the twelfth prince felt this in his heart.

Queen Wang was generous and tolerant, but she would not deliberately treat him harshly.

But the life of a prince without his mother and concubine would still be much more difficult.

Every winter, the prince also has carbon, but the ones sent by the housekeeper are just ordinary carbon. Those carbons are quite warm, but there is always a strange smell. There is no way to cure it. Open some windows to let some air flow.

But if the door is not closed properly, it will be very cold.

Later, he and Jixiang only used the charcoal for cooking rice and water.

Many times, he would be woken up by the cold bed in the middle of the night.

"Jixiang, please let someone bring some charcoal into the house, and you can keep vigil for me tonight!" the twelfth prince said with a smile.

Ji Xiang instantly beamed with joy.

The so-called vigil means staying beside the bed and serving the Twelve Princes anytime and anywhere.

It sounds quite painful.

But in fact, the twelfth prince slept very well at night and rarely got up at night.

More importantly, the twelfth prince is now in trouble.

Those of them who are slaves don't have charcoal fire.

"Yes." Jixiang responded with a smile.

After the silver charcoal started to burn, the Twelve Princes and Ji Xiang couldn't help but take a deep breath.

"It is indeed silver carbon. Not only does it have no strange smell, it also has a faint fragrance. It smells really good." Ji Xiang couldn't help but say.

The Twelve Prince nodded: "By the way, close the doors and windows, don't let this fragrance escape."

Ji Xiang responded crisply and walked over quickly.

The eunuch who was cleaning at the door had a flash of surprise in his eyes, but he quickly calmed down.

Prince Duan's Mansion.

Qin Song looked at the burning charcoal basin in surprise and asked, "You mean, this charcoal basin will be poisonous? Why didn't I know?"

"Yes, if the charcoal pot is used for a long time and the room is airtight, colorless and odorless carbon poison will poison people."

The middle-aged counselor smiled calmly and said: "The twelfth prince, who was just a little transparent in the harem before, had no way to come into contact with this good thing, will definitely cherish this charcoal fire. As long as the door of the house is closed, something unexpected can happen.

"

After Qin Song thought for a while, he laughed and said: "It's unexpected. Very good. If things go as planned, sir, you will be my number one adviser and you will definitely be able to become king and prime minister in the future."

The middle-aged counselor's breathing became visibly heavier.

He has always stayed by Qin Song's side, not just because he wanted to seize a splendid future.

Fengzao Palace.

After the man in black explained the situation, he hesitated and asked: "Chief, if the house is closed tightly, there is no guarantee that the twelfth prince will not die of carbon poisoning. Do you think you should save the twelfth prince?"

Empress Wang leaned against the soft body, her posture casual, but with indescribable grace: "Save the twelfth prince? What are the benefits of this palace?"

The man in black was stunned for a moment and said, "The Emperor just asked you to take care of the Twelve Princes."

"Didn't I take care of Twelve?" Queen Wang asked coldly: "In recent days, I have sent people to take care of Twelve many times. Those slaves who had neglected and bullied Twelve were even dealt with by me. Food and drink expenses

,Everything is the best, do you think I take care of it?"

It can be said that Queen Wang has done her best.

"But the twelfth prince died, will your majesty blame you?" the man in black said hesitantly.

Queen Wang sneered, and her tone was extremely cold and indifferent: "He is too stupid to care about my affairs. Even if His Majesty wants to blame me, he can't blame me. Besides, there are so many people in Chaoyang Palace, don't they?

Do you know that you can’t close the doors and windows when burning charcoal?”

"Someone should know this." The man in black said hesitantly.

Queen Wang asked coldly: "Since someone knows, why didn't anyone remind him? Naturally, the Twelve Princes are so useless that no one who came to him could subdue him."

Knowing the Queen Wang's attitude, the man in black stopped saying anything, but asked doubtfully: "Chief, are you really planning to follow the Emperor?"

"Do you think I am one of those people who gives up life easily?" Queen Wang raised her eyes, her dignified and majestic eyes falling on the person in front of her.

The man in black suddenly remembered that when their group was surrounded by enemies, everyone gave up in despair, but Queen Wang still did not give up and persisted in fighting those people, finally breaking through the siege.

"My son was originally a bit stupid, but stupidity also has its benefits."

It's just so confusing.

"Originally, I only planned to be a high-ranking Queen Mother, but the idiot of the former Crown Prince made me stupid to death." Although she was obviously speaking very angry words, Queen Wang's tone did not change.

"In this case, leader, you shouldn't save Twelve. As long as Twelve takes over, you can listen to politics behind the curtain." The man in black said in a puzzled tone.

"If the emperor really wants Twelve to be promoted, I can naturally do this. But the emperor has someone else in mind. And from what the emperor said, that person is both civil and military, has outstanding abilities, and can also fight in the army."

"This doesn't sound like Prince Duan!"

"Lao Liu is a bit capable of conspiracy, but he has no ability to fight. I suspect that the emperor has an illegitimate son who is living abroad. The illegitimate son must be at least fifteen years old."

Only in this way can we explain why Emperor Qinghe seemed anxious but was actually calm.
