Chapter 231 Pleading For My Brother
Chapter 231 Pleading For My Brother
Smart people never think in a straight line, because that's taken for granted.
From the moment Jiang Chengxiao was assassinated, the emperor had no absolute doubt that the prince did it, because fundamentally, the prince had no reason to do that.
By killing a Jiang Chengxiao, he can get rid of the suspicion of forming a party with the Cui family?
Is it possible to completely conceal the matter of Donglai County?
The prince would not know that his inner guards had captured Cui Qi and Cui Yunxiang, so it would be even more impossible for him to do such a thing.
Therefore, when the inner guard Chen Leng caught the assassin and forced a confession, the emperor knew who the murderer was behind it.
"Ginger dry!"
Under Ah Weng's terrified gaze, the emperor slammed his fist on the table, and all the notes fell to the ground.
Hearing the sound of the emperor gnashing his teeth, Chen Ling, who was kneeling below, buried his head even lower.
Not to mention that it was King Zhao's only son who was assassinated by King Qi, the blame alone behind him was enough to make the emperor extremely angry.
"Is the assassin dead?"
"Reporting to His Majesty, I still have a sigh of relief."
"Okay, save his life. Go, summon the king of Qi and the crown prince to the palace!"
"Yes!"
Chen Ling quickly got up and left.
A look of sadness appeared on A Weng's face, the dirty things of the royal family have finally come.
The emperor sat down on the couch in a daze. He thought that King Qi was far from being the prince's opponent, but he never expected that this 'unintelligent' son would be so vicious when he made a move.
If Jiang Chengxiao really died in the inn and the assassin fled, who would King Zhao's anger turn to?
Who will benefit the most?
Last time he underestimated the crown prince, this time he underestimated King Qi, these two sons surprised him unexpectedly.
The emperor slowly closed his eyes, his body trembling slightly when he wasn't paying attention.
Because of the nobles in Guanzhong, because of the nobles in Shandong, because of the canal and other matters, he ignored his good son.
"Aon, what should I do?"
The emperor closed his eyes, as if he was asking Ah Weng, but also as if he was asking himself.
The assassin was Jiang Chengxiao, and the one who set the blame was the crown prince.
Who should he give an explanation to?
And how to give them an explanation.
Although from Jiang Chengxiao's assassination to the present, Zhao Wang only said "Let His Majesty handle it", but Zhao Wang is not a fool, can he just find someone to stuff Zhao Wang with?
It was his only son who was assassinated!
If King Zhao is not satisfied, he may be dissatisfied, and Jiang Chengxiao, who he is optimistic about, may also feel resentful.
Tricky!Difficult!
A Weng, who was standing by the side, didn't answer the emperor at all. He seemed to be petrified, with his back bent and his back staring blankly at the mirror-clear floor.
At this moment, Prince Qi's Mansion.
Huangfu Jia was having a drink with the high-spirited King Qi.
"Sir, this king only knows what it means to suffer the consequences of one's own evil today!"
King Qi took a sip of fine wine, raised his eyebrows and exhaled: "The Cui family is now in deep trouble, Gao Xun and Lu Huaishen hated the father, this king wants to see how this fat pig can turn around this time!"
Reaching out to pick up the jug and serving it to King Qi Man, Huangfu Jia reminded: "Your Highness, don't be careless. From the past, the prince will never stand still, he must be preparing something in secret."
"Prepare?"
King Qi laughed, "What else can he prepare? The Cui family and the rebels are mixed together, can he escape? Even if he leaves the Cui family this time, he will never be innocent in the heart of the emperor!"
"That's the case, but we also have to guard against it." Huangfu Jia pondered for a moment, and said: "Your Highness, at the end of the month, the emperor can let the censor under our control play His Majesty, directly impeach the prince, and he must not be allowed to escape."
"Well."
King Qi drank another cup, nodded and said: "That's right, if the royal father wants to hide this matter for the sake of the royal family's face, he can't hurt the prince's reputation. This plan is feasible."
Huangfu Jia said: "Anyway, it is absolutely impossible for the Cui family to stay out of the matter this time. Although the Cui family will not be seriously injured when this incident occurs, it will not be possible to continue to hinder His Highness for a while. If possible, We still need to work hard to drag Cui Shili into the water."
"Your Highness, the Minister of the Household Department is a fat vacancy. If someone replaces us, by then, not only will he be able to control part of the money bag, but he will also be able to put a nail in Lu Huaishen's eyes."
Hearing this King Qi immediately became interested, where is the household department, the money bag of the Jin family, the prince is not because of the relationship between Lu Huaishen and Cui Shili, so many people have been attracted to go there?
Of course, except for that old thing Gao Xun.
"The plan will come out?"
Huangfu Jia smiled lightly, "Making this matter so big that everyone in Chang'an knows about it, can His Majesty let Cui Shili go so easily? How can his father stay out of the matter when his son is linked to rebels?"
"As long as Cui Shili goes down and the prince is hit, our chance will come."
Huangfu Jia shook his hand, full of confidence.
"Is there anyone to choose, sir?"
Hearing this, Huangfu Jia shook his head, and said: "Your Highness, this matter should be discussed with all the officials in Prince Qi's Mansion."
His tone was very meaningful, and King Qi immediately understood what he meant.
"Sir is right, it's time to see what they can do."
After all, he was the little friends who worked behind him, so of course he had to think about them at this time.
"Your Highness, General Chen Leng, the inner guard, holds His Majesty's gold medal, and summons His Highness to enter the palace for an audience!"
The guard's voice sounded outside the study.
"Sir, this is..." King Qi looked at Huangfu Jia suspiciously.
Huangfu Jialuo thought for a while, then smiled and said: "Congratulations, Your Highness, it should be that His Majesty asked something from Cui Yunxiang, which involved the Crown Prince, so he summoned His Highness to discuss it."
Hearing this, King Qi grinned, his smile widening uncontrollably.
"Okay, sir, wait for my good news. I must seize this opportunity and make it difficult for the prince to turn around!" King Qi said solemnly.
Huangfu Jia stretched out his hand to stop the King of Qi, and under his puzzled expression, he slowly explained: "Your Highness, please remember, this trip will meet His Majesty, no matter how His Majesty wants to punish the Crown Prince, His Highness must desperately intercede for the Crown Prince."
"Even if His Majesty says that the crown prince will be abolished, His Majesty will stop His Majesty."
"Why is this?"
King Qi was confused.
Huangfu Jia: "."
Maybe King Qi is really not smart.
He could only break the words apart, broke them into pieces, and explained: "Your Highness, the prince is your elder brother. You must not hurt the prince at this time, or your majesty will be disappointed!"
"It's fine if you say so earlier, Mister." Qi Wang laughed, "Don't worry, Mister, I will definitely try my best to intercede with my good brother!"
Huangfu Jia nodded and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness, you just need to make a gesture. Your Majesty may forgive the prince, but he will never let him go easily. Please rest assured, Your Highness."
"Okay, sir, don't worry, just wait for my good news!"
King Qi strode away.
Before entering the imperial study room, King Qi had been thinking about how to intercede with his good brother later, and even brewed his emotions in advance, so that he would come to the imperial study room with tears later.
"Hey hey"
Thinking of this, King Qi inevitably made a strange sound.
Chen Ling: "."
Is King Qi crazy?
Or did he not know that what he had done had been exposed?
Shaking his head secretly, Chen Ling led King Qi into the imperial study room, and then retreated quickly like a plague god. He could already guess what would happen later.
I hope King Qi is okay.
"My son pays homage to my father, my father is forever!"
King Qi straightened his clothes, kowtowed to the ground, and made a great gift.
Aon: "."
Did he know that he was doomed?
The emperor sat on the couch, looked at King Qi expressionlessly, and said sarcastically, "Did you want to learn from me?"
King Qi was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding what his father meant.
The prince who had already arrived at the side immediately understood the meaning of the father, and he hurriedly knelt down and said: "Father, if the second brother is wrong, please tell the father, the second brother and the father are both monarchs and ministers, and father and son. With a happy heart, I also ask my father to give my second brother a chance to explain."
boom!
The prince slammed his forehead hard on the floor.
King Qi: "???"
This situation is not right, he should be the one who kowtows to plead for mercy now.
"Father, what's the matter with summoning your son?" King Qi asked cautiously before he could figure out the matter.
Hearing this, the emperor laughed out of breath, and he laughed back angrily: "Why did I never know that King Qi still has this calmness, who did you learn from? Ah!"
The emperor's tone became more and more wrong, no matter how stupid King Qi was, he knew that something was wrong, and it was too different from what he thought.
"Father, what happened?" King Qi looked at Father with ignorant eyes.
emperor:"."
What does this mean, do you want to learn from Zheng Shanyuan or Pei Ju, and come to the imperial study room for heatstroke?
"Hmph, okay, since King Qi doesn't know, then I will help King Qi remember it." The emperor suppressed his anger forcibly, and asked, "Did you know about Duke Langya's assassination?"
"know."
King Qi agreed immediately, and then said: "Father, but the murderer caught him?"
"Yeah, got it."
Faced with Qi Wang's pretending to be stupid, the emperor had a clear understanding after this time.
"Who is it?" King Qi asked with great interest.
Seeing the ignorance and curiosity on King Qi's face, the emperor had to admit that this son had unknowingly acquired a calmness that ordinary people did not have.
"Assassin's words are what you ordered him to do."
