Donggong Zhangjiao

Chapter 35

Maybe it's because the adult's deep and angry reprimand is quite penetrating.

The eldest prince finally recovered from the wave after wave of sudden attacks, and looked up at Pei Yao with an ugly expression.

"Brother Huang, is there any misunderstanding in this? Although the son of the Jiang family is a dude, he doesn't look like a big evil person."

As Emperor Chengjing's own son, the eldest prince knows his father's temperament too well.

Maybe it was because of suffering in the past, so after Emperor Chengjing ascended the throne, he tried his best to make up for his mother, Concubine Jiang.

But the son wanted to support him but his relatives would not wait, so Emperor Chengjing put all his filial piety on the Jiang family.

Although the sky is high and the emperor is far away, he doesn't have much contact with him on weekdays, and he can't even think of Changyuhou when no one mentions it, but every time the concubine dies, he will think of the Jiang family and give him a reward.

This is also the reason why the Jiang family can be so domineering in Zhongzhou. Although it is once a year, it is a holy favor after all. How many people have never had it in their lifetime.

And precisely because he knew the special position of the Jiang family in Emperor Chengjing's heart, how could the eldest prince dare to touch the Jiang family.

Isn't this trying to make trouble for Emperor Chengjing?

But Qian Jiangbai is a smart person, he didn't give the eldest prince a chance to continue talking, and immediately stood in front of Pei Yao, cupping his hands.

"His Royal Highness, in this memorial submitted by the minister, none of the crimes are slandering the Jiang family. There are many witnesses and physical evidence. If your highness doesn't believe it, you can check it!"

After he finished speaking, the Eldest Prince next to him looked a bit ugly, and abruptly suppressed the rest of his words.

But he naturally didn't want to get involved in this mess, so he shirked again.

"Brother Huang, after all, the Jiang family is a lord's family. It is better to ask the emperor what he means. We are here to investigate the case. Is it wrong to intervene in other things suddenly?"

After he finished speaking, he winked at Wei Changsong next to him.

The latter also stepped forward immediately.

"His Royal Highness, I think what the eldest prince said is justified. This matter should be reported to the emperor first, and then we will discuss it. And if the things written in the booklet are true, why did Lord Qian not report to the Marquis of Changyu earlier?" Investigate and deal with the crime, or report it to the emperor?"

The words instantly pointed the finger at Qian Jiangbai again, and the disaster was brought to the east.

But since Qian Jiangbai has stood up, he must be prepared.

Immediately, with a plop, he knelt down in front of Pei Yao.

"His Royal Highness, I have committed a crime. As the official of Zhongzhou's parents, I should really consider the common people, punish the evil and promote the good, but this Marquis of Changyu has always been domineering. The son Jiang Shixuan said in front of His Highness yesterday that the minister is for Changyu. Hou is not worthy of carrying shoes, which shows how he usually is, how dare the ministers investigate!"

"Furthermore, these things that the Jiang family has done have been kept secret. The minister has also reported it, but he has not received a response. If you think about it, it may not have been in the hands of the emperor. Xun, I can avenge the grievances of the people of Zhongzhou face to face, and I will never dare to secretly search for evidence of the crimes of the Marquis of Changyu and report it to Your Highness!"

When he said this, Qian Jiangbai was full of snot and tears, pleading guilty and complaining at the same time, with a look of grievances that he had endured for many years.

At this time, Zhang Zonghe also immediately stood up to help him.

"His Royal Highness, I think Lord Qian is a crime, but now he dares to stand up and point out the crimes of the Jiang family, which can be regarded as atonement. If the Jiang family is not punished, I am afraid that it will damage the prestige of the court and even worse. It's hurting the emperor's face, after all, the Jiang family is so rampant, it can be called the name of the emperor's relatives!"

Qian Jiangbai kowtowed immediately.

"His Royal Highness, the minister will not hesitate to die. I just ask His Royal Highness to be the master for the people of Zhongzhou. The replacement of the Wang family in this scientific examination is also related to Changyuhou's mansion, and he has been fawning on many times. Maybe this case is also related to Changyuhou. The government has something to do with it!"

Speaking of which, the First Prince and his ministers all looked very unsightly.

But the matter has come to this point, if the eldest prince does not express his position, it will indeed appear to be too protective, indecisive, and contemptuous of the law.

After all, it was he who just swore that the emperor broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people.

So at this moment, he calmed down and spoke.

"Brother Huang, I never thought that the Marquis of Changyu's mansion would be so unworthy of my father's grace. In my opinion, it is better to report this to the capital in advance. Here in Zhongzhou, first seal the Marquis of Changyu's mansion, and then let Qian Zhizhou will atone for his crime and lead people to investigate thoroughly."

In the end, he still absolutely didn't want to touch this hot potato, so he left the matter to Qian Jiangbai.

Pei Yao pretended to be thinking, and nodded for a while.

"That's fine, but it's not safe to leave this matter to Mr. Qian alone. This time, I was ordered by my father to come here to thoroughly investigate the scientific research case. I really can't get away from it. It's not as good as Changyu Houfu's matter." Let Lord Qian investigate, you come to interrogate, it is convenient, I believe in your ability, I will not let Gu down."

Since he wanted to pull the eldest prince in, he wouldn't let him break free easily.

At this time the eldest prince still wanted to struggle, but Hong Zheng promptly reminded him that the Luming Banquet had already started and the students had already entered, so Pei Yao ignored them and got up straight away.

And after the sudden bombing this morning, the eldest prince is not in the mood to participate in the so-called Luming Banquet, nor is he in the mood to stare at Pei Yao.

Naturally, he didn't care whether Pei Yao was the same as the previous arrangement, and stepped back after showing his face.

So after this banquet, the First Prince's condition was not good.

He was thinking about how to report this matter to Emperor Chengjing, but he was also afraid that Emperor Chengjing would scold him for attacking the Jiang family, and he was afraid that he would be suspected of covering up and ruin his reputation.

Pei Yao is different, he is relaxed, wandering among many students, and found a few with very good aptitude, which was secretly recorded.

After the banquet is over.

The eldest prince excused himself to investigate the affairs of Marquis Changyu's mansion, instead of returning to his residence with Pei Yao, he found a teahouse to discuss matters with several ministers under his command.

The final result of the discussion is that the Jiang family's chess piece is not important, and it is fine to lose it.

On Emperor Chengjing's side, as long as the eldest prince said blindly, it was the prince's idea, and he was just doing things according to the orders and Daqi's laws.

Although it might make Emperor Chengjing unhappy, in the end it was Pei Yao who offended Emperor Chengjing the most.

And if Emperor Chengjing was dissatisfied with the Jiang family and directly ordered punishment without mercy, that would be even better, it would appear that he killed his relatives righteously and was upright.

Is this Qian Jiangbai, you have to keep an eye on it.

At first glance, it was the people under Pei Yao's command.

The eldest prince's head ached when he heard what the ministers said, and he couldn't help but think of his mother, Empress Li.

As long as there is any problem, the queen mother can point out the problem to him sharply and explain the solution clearly.

Compared with these ministers who chatted for a long time before they came up with a plan, they are really many times stronger.
