As soon as Jiangmen Jiaojiao opened her eyes, she was paranoid that the prince had come to steal her

Chapter 246 Don't forget the original intention
"possible."

Yun Qi nodded, "But... do you know that after Prince Liang was imprisoned, he asked to see Grandpa Huang, but he was refused."

"The Emperor's grandpa went from having nothing to ascending the throne to the throne. His scheming and scheming along the way are unparalleled."

"Grandpa Qi Huang has a sharp gaze... I guess he may have seen through the Shangyuan case a long time ago, and also knows that the real mastermind behind it is King Zhou, and King Liang is just a shield for being pushed out, but he has no intention of defending King Liang. Chance."

Xie Zhaozhao was startled, "You mean, His Majesty turned a blind eye and took the opportunity to make Prince Liang completely unable to stand up?"

"That's right." Yun Qi looked at the tea cup in his hand, "Prince Liang is too powerful in the Sixteenth Province of Youyun. He is also arrogant and domineering and refuses to obey the rules. Grandpa Huang has long been dissatisfied with him."

"What's more, this time Chen Zhiyuan's death has angered the King of Zhongshan. If there is no satisfactory answer, the King of Zhongshan will not give up."

And the King of Liang was definitely worthy enough to give an account to the King of Zhongshan.

As Xie Zhaozhao listened, a sudden chill ran down his spine, and then his whole body became cold.

The King of Liang was certainly cruel and deserved to be killed.

But Emperor Xuanwu's imperial skills of arrogant planning are really shocking.

The truth never matters, even his own son can be sacrificed for the sake of the country by turning a blind eye.

Even though she had seen Emperor Xuanwu's imperial arts in her previous life, and had seen the imperial road filled with bones and blood, she was suddenly faced with such a thing in this life, and she still couldn't laugh about it without any trouble.

"Zhao Zhao?"

With Yun Qi's gentle call, the back of Xie Zhaozhao's hand felt warm.

She raised her head and saw Yun Qi's slightly confused eyes, "What's wrong with you?"

"..."

Xie Zhaozhao pursed his lips and held Yun Qi's hand behind his back, "A Qi, you will also be the emperor in the future."

Yun Qi was silent for a moment, then held her hand tightly, "If nothing else happens, it should be, but..."

Yun Qi stood up, walked to sit next to Xie Zhaozhao, and hugged her: "Zhaozhao, don't think too much, and don't be afraid of things that are impossible to happen in the future."

"I'm not Grandpa Huang, I'm not my father, I'm Yun Qi."

"It's Yun Qi who always keeps you in his heart and will never forget his original intention."

When he said this, he squeezed Xie Zhaozhao's hand and placed it in front of him.

Xie Zhaozhao's palm was right against his heart, and you could clearly feel his steady and powerful heartbeat.

The words seemed to pass through Xie Zhaozhao's palm through her heartbeat and into her heart.

Xie Zhaozhao suddenly felt much more at ease and responded softly.

……

The Shangyuan case lasted half a month and was concluded in early February.

It was the King of Liang who was so insane that he turned the capital upside down, killed Chen Zhiyuan and pursued Chen Shulan, and also tried to frame the King of the West for his crimes. It was a deplorable and unforgivable crime.

The Prince of Liang was imprisoned, and none of the confiscated assets of the Prince of Liang went into the national treasury. Instead, they were held by the Ministry of Household Affairs, who were responsible for lavish burials and comforting the people and officials who were innocently killed and implicated in the Shangyuan case.

Including the left and right neighbors involved in the fire at Chen's villa.

On the fifth day of February, officials in the court began to impeach the King of Liang for stationing private soldiers in the Sixteenth Prefecture of Youyun, allowing his men to occupy farmland, oppressing the people, violently imposing private taxes, and plundering the people's wealth and wealth, and other dozens of major crimes.

Anyone in the court who had anything to do with Prince Liang began to do their best to avoid it.

Those who really couldn't tell clearly took the initiative to confess the unforgivable crimes of King Liang in order to obtain leniency from Emperor Xuanwu.

What's more, many unwarranted charges of deceiving the king, treason and usurping power were pinned on King Liang.From then on, the king of Liang was defeated like a mountain.

In the study room of the East Palace, the prince frowned as he looked at the official documents that were piled up like a mountain in front of him.

The face that had always been elegant and gentle now also looked very ugly.

These official documents are all related to King Liang.

This is either a memorial for impeachment or an attempt to add insult to injury. Please give me a severe punishment.

The Prince of Liang was indeed unforgivable, but the faces of these people in the court made the prince sneer.

"Your Highness, this memorial was submitted by the Minister of Rites." Donggong Zhanshi said in a low voice: "The content is different from others."

"Why is it different?"

"He...counted in detail the achievements of King Liang in conquering all directions over the years, as well as...defending the sixteen states of Youyun and repelling dozens of barbarian attacks. He said that King Liang had both faults and merits."

"Oh?" The prince's expression softened slightly, "It seems that not all the officials in the court are blind... Just take a look."

"Yes."

Several officials quickly flipped through the memorials and classified them.

Put aside those who impeached and add insult to injury, put aside those who said that King Liang had merits and demerits, and put aside those who complained for no reason and mentioned trivial matters such as sesame and mung beans to insinuate King Liang.

Finally, the prince asked someone to compile all the memorials and went to the palace to meet the saint.

This case of Prince Liang is not a trivial matter. The prince can no longer make up his mind on how to deal with it. He must ask Emperor Xuanwu for instructions.

It was already late at night.

The prince entered the palace at night. As soon as he got out of the car in front of the palace gate and headed to the royal study, a young eunuch ran quickly to salute the prince: "Your Highness, His Royal Highness the Prince of Zhou, Prince Fu, Prince Xiang, Princess Jialing, and Princess Qingping , Princess Anyang and others were all kneeling outside the imperial study."

The prince paused and nodded: "I understand."

Then, the little eunuch followed the prince to the imperial study room.

Outside the Imperial Study Room, a large group of people were already kneeling and suppressing them.

Emperor Xuanwu had many heirs, and there were more than 40 princes and princesses in total. Now, except for those who were guarding the border and had never returned to the capital, the rest were all kneeling outside the imperial study room to plead for King Liang.

Those kneeling at the front were King Zhou, King Fu, and King Xiang.

Although the places where King Fu and King Xiang were stationed were not as important as the Youyun Sixteen Prefectures where King Liang was stationed, they were still vassal kings guarding the border. Now that King Liang has been dismissed, apart from their deep brotherhood, they feel quite bitter.

As for the King of Zhou, it was entirely because of the care King Liang had taken of him over the years.

The little eunuch said to the prince: "I have been kneeling for an hour, and the Holy One has not seen me."

The prince nodded, and then brought the officials from the East Palace to see him.

When the young eunuch went to the imperial study room to report, King Zhou said with a complicated expression: "Brother Prince, Brother, Three Emperors, although he has been there, he also once stood up for the Qin Dynasty and opened up the territory and expanded the territory——"

The prince said calmly: "I know... you are weak, so go back to your home and rest first."

"How can I rest?" King Zhou smiled bitterly and said, "My brother and the Three Emperors have had the deepest friendship over the years. Now he has made a big mistake. I don't know how to eat, and I can't sleep at night."

"Only by begging my father to show mercy and let the three emperor brothers go can I feel a little more at ease."

The prince looked at him deeply, "The twelfth brother and the third emperor brother really have a deep brotherly love, which is so touching."
