Chapter 392

"Fairy Master, this gentleman, please come in alone."

The man in black walked into the room, but Shi Feixuan stood still.

"Your Highness, Feixuan is an outsider, so she is not suitable to be involved in this court dispute. His Highness is enough to have this gentleman."

Speaking of Shi Feixuan, she turned and left the courtyard.

The prince was not angry either, he just said to the man in black, "Please sir!"

After entering the room, the prince suddenly grabbed the man in black's face towel, trying to reveal the man in black's true face, but at the moment the prince made a move, the man in black seemed to take a small step back unconsciously, just in time to hide Opened the prince's catch.

Although he is not considered a master, the prince has martial arts skills. With the support of medicinal materials, the prince is also a martial artist who has access to three veins.

Although it is incomparable with the young masters in the Jianghu, it is already close to the disciples of the eight major sects.

"Is Your Highness so curious about your identity?!"

The man in black's voice was mellow, making people feel that he was not a sinister and cunning person.

"The reason why the grass people are masked is that the grass people are ugly and ashamed to see others. Please forgive me, Your Highness."

The man in black had already said so, and the prince couldn't continue to push him, so he had to say it.

"I was rude just now, sir, please don't take offense!"

"Grassmen dare not."

A small friction made contact for a while, and the man in black moved to the left and right of the prince.

"I heard from Master Fairy that His Highness is in a predicament."

The prince looked at the man in black with piercing eyes.

"Can I trust sir!?"

The man in black smiled, "I don't even want to reveal my identity, so it can be seen that I don't want anything from His Highness. This time I came here at the behest of Master Fairy. If His Highness doesn't believe me, just leave!"

Just when the man in black was about to get up, the prince stopped him with a smile.

"Ahahaha! Sir, don't blame me, it's just that Bo Yun is treacherous, and there are countless open and hidden arrows. Gu is really scared! Hahaha!"

Only then did the man in black sit back on his seat.

"I know His Highness's difficulties! This is why I came here to help His Highness!"

The man in black dipped some tea from the teacup on the side, and then wrote the word "Yang" in front of the prince's case.

"This is His Highness' biggest dilemma right now."

The prince's eyes became sharper, this man in black is not simple.

"Mister knows my troubles?!"

The man in black laughed, "It's nothing more than Zhou Mingsheng's case, and now this matter is no longer a secret in the capital, so why should His Highness use it to test it?!"

"Since Mr. knows my troubles, there is a solution."

The man in black laughed, "What's so difficult?! My method can not only keep Zhou Ming alive, but also get rid of Yang Qingyuan!"

"You want me to kill Yang Qingyuan directly?!"

The prince really didn't think about this.

Yang Qingyuan is not only a person valued by the emperor, but also from Wudang, it is enough to deal with his relegation, killing Yang Qingyuan is not worth the loss.

"If your plan is so simple, what face is there to relieve His Highness' worries?!"

The prince frowned, "Sir, please speak up!"

"Then I will show my shame!"

The man in black got up and said, "The crown prince is His Majesty's son, why did he tie his hands and feet when facing Yang Qingyuan?"

After a few breaths of silence, the prince replied, "Because Yang Qingyuan was born in Wudang, and he is very talented, so he has won the trust of his father."

The man in black nodded and said, "That's a big reason, but not entirely!"

The prince was puzzled, "Please enlighten me, sir!"

"Because Yang Qingyuan is very similar to Yu Yanyi. People like them don't participate in party struggles, don't fight for power and gain, and don't rule out dissidents. They are direct ministers. This kind of people may sometimes bluntly speak out, but in the heart of the emperor, he trusts them the most. of."

The crown prince nodded. Yu Yanyi's conduct was well known throughout the court. If Yang Qingyuan and Yu Yanyi were the same kind of people in the eyes of his father, then this kind of trust could also be justified.

"Yang Qingyuan's behavioral style and his special background in Wudang have given him the special trust of the emperor today. If Yang Qingyuan also participates in the battle for the heir apparent, do you think the emperor will trust him so much?!"

The prince didn't understand the meaning of the man in black's words at first, but after a while, in the meaningful eyes of the man in black, the prince understood what the man in black meant.

"But Yang Qingyuan has always upheld justice. If Gu slanders out of thin air, will Father believe it?!"

The man in black smiled softly, "Haha, His Highness is persistent, it doesn't matter what Yang Qingyuan does, the key is what His Majesty thinks he did?!"

The prince immediately understood that once the seeds of doubt took root, it would not be so easy to get out.

"But this matter cannot be said by His Highness."

The man in black continued.

"Then who should say it?!" The prince knew the right candidate for a moment.

The man in black dipped his hands in the tea again, and wrote a name before the prince's desk.

The prince's pupils shrank slightly, "If he is willing to act, the probability of father's letter will be greatly increased. But he has never participated in the government affairs of the court and China, will he be willing to help?!"

"Don't worry, Your Highness, I will write a letter. It is absolutely impossible for him to stand by and watch. And His Highness still has things to do!"

The prince didn't understand, "What should Gu do now?!"

"Go and kneel!"

"Kneeling?!"

"Kneel in front of the imperial study!"

The prince was even more puzzled, "Why is this!?" He knew his father too well. Although his methods were much gentler than the Taizu's, his heart was as strong as the Taizu's. , will be able to impress.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, this time it will definitely work! And it's going to rain soon, is this God helping His Highness!?"

Prince: "..."
-
It was Haishi when Emperor Zhou returned to the palace.

Usually at this time, the emperor of Zhou would review the memorials in the imperial study.

Just as Emperor Zhou led Cao Zhengchun towards the imperial study, a little eunuch ran over in a panic.

Cao Zhengchun was the first to stop him, "Xiao Dezi! Why are you in such a panic, all the etiquette you learn on weekdays has gone into the stomach of a dog!"

Dishonesty in front of the king is a serious crime. Although the Emperor of Zhou could not punish him, Cao Zhengchun, as the chief steward of the palace, had to correct him. At the same time, he was saving Xiao Dezi's life.

This little Dezi is his godson, the little eunuch in charge of serving in the imperial study.

After seeing Cao Zhengchun's reaction, Emperor Zhou waved his hand instead, "Cao Zhengchun stop!"

Then he said to Xiao Dezi who was kicked to the ground by Cao Zhengchun, "Get up! After all, you are not old, and you are usually cautious, why are you so harsh?!"

Cao Zhengchun lowered his brows and said, "Long live is a lesson! It's the slaves who are too harsh!"

"What happened?! So flustered!?"

Emperor Zhou also had an impression of this little servant, so there must be a reason for his panic.

"His Royal Highness...His Royal Highness...!"

Emperor Zhou frowned slightly, "What's wrong with the prince?!"

"Your Highness, he knelt in front of the Imperial Study Room, begging to see Long Live!"

Zhou Di frowned slightly, but now he frowned even tighter.

The prince came to kneel in front of the imperial study room at such a time, just because of Zhou Mingsheng's affairs, and his son still let him down after all.

After a few breaths of silence, Emperor Zhou said, "Cao Qing, let's go from the side!"

The two entered the imperial study room through the side door. As for the other person, Yuhuatian, after escorting Emperor Zhou back to the palace, he went back to the West Factory to handle official duties.

When Emperor Zhou returned to the imperial study, he continued to review important memorials regardless of the prince kneeling outside.

It took half an hour to see this.

Seeing that his eyes were slightly sour, Emperor Zhou couldn't help but rubbed his eyes, and took a sip of tea. Cao Zhengchun, who was on the side, saw that Emperor Zhou began to relax simply, and asked cautiously.

"Long live!?"

"What's the matter?!" Emperor Zhou put down the teacup and asked.

"His Royal Highness, are you still kneeling outside the imperial study?" Cao Zhengchun asked cautiously.

"..." Emperor Zhou was silent for a moment, but his heart still carried the anger of hating iron for not being steel.

"If he is willing to kneel, let him kneel! The dignified prince will only kneel when he encounters a problem! How can I hand over the country and society to him with confidence?!"

Seeing that Emperor Zhou was still angry, Cao Zhengchun didn't dare to say more.

After tens of breaths of thought, Emperor Zhou reviewed the memorial on the table again.

But about a quarter of an hour later, the wind outside the imperial study room became louder.

"Huhuhu..."

The sound of raindrops hitting the tiles sounded on the roof of the imperial study.

It became more and more short of breath, and in the end, it turned into a long cry.

Emperor Zhou, who was reviewing the memorial, also raised his head, as if asking Cao Zhengchun, and said softly.

"It's raining heavily!?"

Cao Zhengchun on the side seemed not to have heard, and did not answer. Emperor Zhou looked in the direction of the gate, as if he could see through the door of the imperial study and see the scene outside.

Amidst the noisy sound of rain, the imperial study room became even more silent.

After a long time, Emperor Zhou asked Cao Zhengchun, "Is the prince still kneeling?!"

Cao Zhengchun replied, "Long live, His Highness has been kneeling outside the imperial study room. But with such a heavy rain, the autumn rain is very cold..."

Cao Zhengchun didn't continue to talk, reminding Emperor Zhou that it was his duty as the emperor's servant, but if he continued, it seemed to be pleading for the prince.

"He has also practiced some superficial martial arts, and he has already opened up the three channels. A little rain can still make him gonorrhea."

After talking about Emperor Zhou, he lowered his head and continued to read the memorial.

But he didn't read two books, and the Zhou Emperor lowered his head and said softly, "Cao Zhengchun, send someone to get an umbrella for the prince!"

After all, it is the father and son whose blood is thicker than water. Although he knew that the prince had done something wrong, Emperor Zhou still had the feeling of licking the calf in his heart.

"The slaves obey!"

Saying that Cao Zhengchun stepped back, he ordered a little eunuch to put an oil-paper umbrella beside the prince.

Unexpectedly, the prince scolded the servant: "I am here alone to beg my father, what does it matter to you, a servant?! Go away!"

After that, it continued to rain heavily, kneeling in front of the imperial study room.

After that, for more than half an hour, the crown prince had been kneeling in the rainstorm. Just when Emperor Zhou was about to get angry, a servant suddenly entered the palace.

"Long live, Prince Linping please see me!"

"Ignore?!" Emperor Zhou, who was reviewing the memorial, raised his head, "He entered the palace overnight, he must have something important to do! Xuan!"

Not long after, a middle-aged man with an upright face walked into the imperial study.

"My brother Zhu ignores it, see Your Majesty!"

The king of Linping County is the official title of Zhu Shi.

Back then because of Su Xin, Zhu Wushi was deprived of the throne by the first emperor, leaving only a Marquis.

Disappointed, Zhu Wushi went out to Beijing for a tour.

He is extremely talented in martial arts, fair-minded, courageous, and a royal marquis. He soon gained a great reputation in the world, known as the Lord of Iron Bravery.

After ascending the throne today, thinking about what happened to this younger brother, three years after succeeding to the throne, he restored Zhu Wushi's princely rank and named him the king of Linping County.

However, because Zhu Wushi has always been called the Marquis of God, the title of Marquis of Tiedan has spread among the people in the temple.

Except for the use of Linping County King on formal occasions, it is generally commensurate with "Shenhou".

"Fourteenth brother, what do you mean by entering the palace late at night!?"

The Hulong Mountain Villa under the control of Zhu Wushi has the most information of the six dark departments of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and entering the palace late at night must not be a trivial matter.

"Brother Emperor, I have found a piece of news about Yancheng."

Yancheng, the fiefdom of King Zhao, is also the base camp of King Zhao.

Emperor Zhou's expression suddenly became solemn.

"What's the matter?!"

"The younger brother found out that the fourth brother traded with Jiannu privately, using 80 catties of pig iron and 20 catties of grain, and traded [-] war horses with Jiannu!"

Emperor Zhou was furious when he heard the words, he slapped the table and said, "He is raising his own self-respect!! He thinks that Jiannu is strong, so I have to rely on him to defend the Northland!? The Longwu Army is not for nothing!!"

Zhu Wushi didn't speak, he was waiting for Emperor Zhou to finish his scolding.

"Can Hulong Villa have any evidence?!"

Emperor Zhou always wanted to attack King Zhao, but Naihe never found the right opportunity.

Yancheng seemed to have become the independent kingdom of King Zhao. If Emperor Zhou wanted to use force, it would only lead to a big battle, which he didn't want to see.

"These were only detected by the secret agents of Weichen. If the Metropolitan Procuratorate goes to Yancheng to investigate, these matters may be dealt with by King Zhao!"

Emperor Zhou also knew that King Zhao couldn't handle this matter, so he nodded helplessly, "I know!"

Right now, there is no good way to break the situation. We can only strengthen the strength of the Longwu Army to guard against King Zhao, and at the same time order the Tiance Army to respond at any time.

After chatting about the matter of Beidi, Zhu Wushi opened his mouth and said, "Brother Huang, I just saw the prince kneeling in the heavy rain, which seems inappropriate. No matter how he angered Brother Huang, he still He is the Prince of the East Palace of the Great Zhou, Brother Huang should save some face."

Hearing Zhu Wushi's plea, Emperor Zhou became even more angry.

"Is it because I don't give him face?! It's because he doesn't want the dignity of the prince! For Zhou Mingyu, he wants me to let Zhou Mingsheng go! Fourteenth brother, do you know that Zhou Mingsheng is extremely vicious, not killing him is not enough The common people are angry! He is a dignified prince who can’t tell right from wrong! What face is there to govern the people! As the father of the people of the world?!”

Zhu Wushi roughly listened to the cause and effect, and after probably knowing what happened, he chuckled lightly.

"Fourteenth brother, I'm angry?! Why are you still laughing!"

Zhu ignored it and immediately said, "Don't blame the emperor, I just feel that the crown prince and the emperor are close relatives, and they even act the same!"

Emperor Zhou was instantly unhappy when he heard the words, "This rebellious son only has his own children's love in his eyes?! How is he like me!? I..."

Speaking of this, Emperor Zhou was stunned!

With the endless sound of rain outside, Emperor Zhou thought of a night in 29 years.
