Chapter 214 The truth (1)
"It made the emperor laugh, because Wenyue's two personal maids love to listen to these gossips and so on, and they usually tell me to relieve boredom." Rong Ruo smiled lightly, with a hint of embarrassment in his words.

"I've heard of this matter before, so it's true, it's really full of wonders." Lan Jingyue said in a clear and clanging voice, with a touch of exclamation in her words.

Everyone looked at Lan Jingyue and Rong Ruo curiously, not knowing why these two people stood up.

The Fifth Prince and Daoist Qingming glared at Rong Ruo and Lan Jingyue with hatred, and there was a murderous look in their eyes.

"Jingyue, you also know, why didn't you tell me about it?" There was a touch of inquiry in the emperor's words.

"Haha, that, I just heard what Ruo Ruo thought. I thought it was just rumors spread by people. After all, it's just rumors." Lan Jingyue said with a smile.

Everyone was shocked when they saw the emperor Duo Lan Jingyue's intimate attitude.

No wonder Lan Jingyue is so presumptuous and lawless, so she has a big backer.

Seeing that praying for rain today is not going to work, alas, they all got up early in the morning, and there is a trace of resentment in everyone's heart.

"Come on, check it out for me, I'm going to figure it out today!" The emperor seemed to really believe it.

In the northern suburbs of Kyoto, it will take an hour to come back even if you hurry up.

In such a hot day, it is natural not to bask in the sun at the altar. The emperor brought everyone to the Hall of Prayer for Harvests.

An hour later, the guard who went to investigate returned.

"My Majesty, the matter is just as Mr. Wei said. Those three villages must pass through on the way to Beijing. The people there are indeed not destitute because of the drought. Their lives are normal. Although they are in a little bit of poverty, none of them are hungry. Dead people."

"My subordinates also heard that the eminent monk who told them about this said that there would be a drought when he passed by places with people along the way. Those who believed it were like the villagers in these three villages. It's miserable." The guard reported in a deep voice.

"This subordinate has asked people to inquire along the way, and if there is a result, news will be sent back." The guard said respectfully.

"Okay, you go down." The emperor was silent for a moment before he said.

The guards retreated, and the atmosphere in the hall was eerily silent.

"Wei Aiqing, why didn't you tell me about this matter earlier." The emperor's eyes were cold, and his eyes were full of suppressed anger.

"Reporting to the emperor, the old minister only found out about it in the past two days, so the old minister kept giving you some memorials, but none of them reached your hands." Lord Wei looked at the fifth prince with a sigh, and there was a hint of embarrassment in his words. heavy.

"I let you read the memorial and screen out the important ones for me to see, that's what you did!" The emperor glared at the fifth prince angrily.

Because of the drought these days, the emperor has been thinking about the solution day and night, and he can't sleep for a long time every night. Because of fatigue, the emperor's health is getting worse and worse, so he handed over the matter of approving the memorial to the fifth prince. The prince was sent to dispatch food.

"Father, I know my mistake. I didn't expect this matter to be so serious. After all, it is a matter that has already been decided. I thought it was the Qin Tianjian who was not convinced, so I kept misleading my father through memorials." The fifth prince hurriedly He knelt down and said with a face full of remorse.

"Okay, just stay there, I'll get a headache just looking at you." The emperor said sharply, rubbing the center of his brows.

The empress on the side looked at the emperor with such an ugly face, but there was no trace of concern on her face. Her expression was indifferent. Although she was sitting here, she seemed to be a completely outsider.

Her eyes looked loosely at the ministers sitting below, with a hint of sarcasm in her eyes.

Suddenly, her gaze stopped on Liu Lan Jingyue, and a flash of surprise flashed across her indifferent eyes.

The emperor didn't notice the empress's expression at all, he said with an ugly face, "Wei Aiqing, you said you met that eminent monk, where is he now?"

"Report to the emperor, the eminent monk is in the prison of Jingzhao Mansion." Lord Wei said in a condensed voice.

"What are you talking about? Why is he in the big prison, Governor of Jingzhao, what's going on?" The emperor's eyes widened in surprise, and he stared at Master Wu with a cold expression.

"My Majesty, there is indeed a monk in prison. It has been a month. He was sent to me by the Prince of Zhennan because he was yelling and scolding outside the Prince's Mansion in Zhennan. Insulting the Prince is also a crime." Wu The lord's face was calm, and he looked at Prince Zhennan with a hint of doubt from time to time while speaking.

When Shangguan Lie heard what Master Wu said, his heart tightened.

After all, it happened not long ago, and he still remembers it, not to mention, that monk pissed him off.

Master Wu looked at Shangguan Lie, with a hint of doubt in his heart.When he took over the monk, he thought it was strange. A monk who had nothing to do when he was full and went to the palace to scold the prince, didn't he want to live? What's more, when he asked this monk, he always said strange things. Weird words.

"Wei Aiqing, are you sure it's that eminent monk?" The emperor frowned.

"My Majesty, that eminent monk is indeed in the prison of Jingzhao Mansion. As for whether it is the person Mr. Wu said, I don't know. Mr. Wu, did you imprison a monk there?" Mr. Wei twisted Frown, ask Mr. Wu.

"There is indeed a monk imprisoned in my place, and it should be the one Master Wei said." Master Wu said seriously.

When the emperor heard the words of the two people, a flash of anger flashed in his eyes.

A month ago, before the drought appeared at that time, that is, this month, the weather suddenly became very hot, and disasters appeared one after another in various places.

If the eminent monk had known about the drought a month ago, no, it should have been longer. If he had known earlier, the common people would have suffered less.

Thinking about it, that eminent monk traveled thousands of miles to the capital to tell him about this matter, but he was imprisoned in the prison for no reason.

"Don't go and invite the eminent monk out for me!" The emperor gave Mr. Wu a hard look, and his words were full of anger.
