I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 808 New Clan Rules
If it weren't for the prince's fragile heart that had just stabilized, Zhao Xi would have asked the prince to resign at this time.

The sudden death of Chen and Uncle... Could it really be that simple?
Although Zhao Xi fell asleep drunk last night, but this morning he still woke up at Yinshichu to exercise.When exercising every day, Wang Zhongzheng will always say some important and unimportant information.

Today, Wang Zhongzheng mentioned that the source of rumors about the crown prince's illness lies in Chen Heshu, the minister of the Ministry of War!

very good!I heard the news of Chen Heshu's sudden death early in the morning...
After preaching to the prince, Zhao Xi didn't continue to deal with the memorial, but began to close his eyes and rest his mind.

The prince thought that his father was tired, so he consciously shared more.But he didn't know that Zhao Xi's mind was full of information reported by Wang Zhongzheng.

Qinzheng Palace knew that the servants who had said those words to the prince, Wang Zhongzheng's investigation results showed no doubts.Also, they are all carefully selected, and there should be no accidents.

At this time, the only people who knew the specific news were the servants of the queen and the prince.

Generally speaking, the servants who serve the master are all close friends of the master.In view of the stability of the inner garden for many years, the Imperial City Secretary has never investigated the personnel of each palace.

Wang Zhongzheng was hesitant, even though he was ordered by the officials to do everything they could, he also hesitated, not daring to touch the empress and the prince at will.

But things have to be done.

"Didn't you be disturbed by the wind and cold the day before yesterday? Let's go back earlier today... Government affairs can never be completed. In addition, there is something that needs to be investigated by the Imperial City Secretary, and I ordered him to have no taboos in the inner court... "

The prince didn't understand what his father meant, so he went back as ordered, and he was indeed a little tired.

Regardless of whether it is serving the prince or being close to the queen, as long as they were on duty last night, they will all be taken by the Imperial City Secretary for questioning...
"The officials and the small ones have been thoroughly investigated, and all the means that should be used have been used. The servants who were on duty at the East Palace and the Queen's Empress the night before can be ruled out without any suspicion."

Wang Zhongzheng had been waiting early, and only reported to the officials when he saw the prince leave.

"Where's the imperial doctor?"

"Back to the official's house, the imperial doctor was summoned by the crown princess. When the crown princess sent the imperial doctor to the East Palace, it was already the beginning of Yinshi. He stayed in the East Palace until the crown prince recovered."

Zhao Xi was a little taken aback, could it be a coincidence?Since the Imperial City Division is conducting a thorough investigation, no one should be missed.All guards, whether they are court ladies or internal eunuchs, are recorded.What position, what responsibility, when, how many people, these are all strict requirements.

Since the Imperial City Division couldn't find any problems, it stands to reason that there shouldn't be any problems.But if it was a coincidence, Zhao Xi really couldn't lie to himself.

"What's the situation with Uncle Chen?"

"Back to the official's house, Wu Zuo checked Chen Heshu, and it didn't seem to be poisoned, nor did he hang himself. Chen Heshu's family was very sad, and they made indirect remarks, but they didn't find anything unusual."

"It's just that passers-by were gossiping. Not long after the government was released the day before yesterday, Uncle Chen and Uncle Chen were invited to a banquet by friends. However, the Imperial City Secretary found out all the relationships between Uncle Chen and Uncle Chen, from the same year, from the same hometown, to merchants with frequent contacts in Bianliang, etc., etc., nothing was done. Uncle Chen. Unfortunately, Uncle Chen's family never mentioned this matter."

"According to the neighbors, Chen and Uncle left in an ordinary merchant's carriage. The exact direction and whereabouts are unknown."

Wang Zhong was doing these things specifically for the officials, so he was also confused at this time.It seems that there was a discrepancy in the fact that Chen and uncle spread rumors yesterday.

Unless Chen Heshu wasn't spreading rumors, such a sudden death would never be easy.

"What's the situation with Chen and his uncle's children?"

"Back to the official house, Chen Heshu's eldest son, Zhenghe, was a Jinshi in 15 years, the same year as the fourth prince. However, his eldest son is not in Bianliang..."

In the end, I still have to rely on my own family.At this point, Zhao Xi basically understood.Brother-in-law! ! !

"Zhongzheng, go and have a look. Before the gate of the palace was locked the day before yesterday, who entered the palace, when did they go to where, what did they do, no matter who it is, let me find out!"

How can I say this.It's not that bad, it can be understood as misinterpreting his own meaning, after all, the prince and queen also misunderstood.

Even when it comes to the results, it doesn't seem to be that serious.Except for Chen and Uncle...
But Zhao Xi just felt sick!Make yourself feel particularly uncomfortable.

······
It was easy to inquire about these, and after a while, Wang Zhongzheng came back with a hesitant expression.

"Let's talk..."

"Go back to the official house, the fourth prince... The fourth prince once entered the palace after he was released from the Yamen, and greeted the empress... the official house, do you need to check the whereabouts of the fourth prince the day before yesterday?"

The fourth prince and the prince are siblings, and they have always been on good terms with the prince.Even Wang Zhongzheng had a lot of contacts with the Fourth Prince.However, in the palace, Wang Zhongzheng was not surprised by anything.After all, he was also here at the time of the late emperor.

Sometimes Wang Zhongzheng was a little envious of Li Xian. It was good to be a general. Although he lived in the Northwest, at least he didn't have to get involved in these bad things about the royal family.

"No need..."

Check it or not, what's the use?Could it be that the plot of the four sons can be determined to be wrong?It seems impossible to talk about it. Even if we can find out the relationship between the fourth prince and Chen Heshu, we can't directly confirm that the rumors spread by Chen Heshu are the instruction of the fourth prince.

The point is, Chen Heshu is dead.As for the death of Chen Heshu, there was no connection with the fourth son.

In fact, from the bottom of his heart, Zhao Xi still didn't want to let the whole court know about such dirty family affairs.

The royal family is selfless, in Zhao Xi's concept, the royal family is also a family.

He himself valued family affection, and he didn't want to put this matter on the table, so that both Tao Niang and the prince would be burdened.

"Don't think about Annan. Yazhou and Yizhou can be considered. If it's too easy, you can consider Korea, Fusang, and Ryukyu. We guarantee the same treatment as the second child!"

Zhao Xi just wrote a few straightforward sentences.

"Zhongzheng, you go in person and give this to the fourth son. Don't talk nonsense! Also, call Zhao Zongshi here!"

Zhao Xi had a bad taste at the beginning, and asked Zhao Zong to be the master of the Zongzheng Temple.Not to mention, these years have really been dedicated to their duties... Sometimes people are given a chance, and the result may be quite different.

Zhao Xi doesn't like bloody things, even when the prince was attacked, he just beheaded Cai Jing and Xingshu, and sent Cai Bian to Annan...

On the last day of the Great Court Meeting, the officials suddenly handed over a decree to the court for discussion: Anyone in the clan (including the prince) who is pretentious, except for the land of Kyushu, whether it is going to the sea to the east, or to the far west, or It is to take advantage of the Northern Liao Dynasty to manage the North Sea, and even organize seagoing ships, and the imperial court will give them all support.

The assets of the country can be priced, and the first-generation and second-generation firearms with no more than 3000 people can be replaced with the imperial court.

After the promulgation of this decree, the imperial court will never compromise on all disobedience, and even does not need to be discussed by the imperial court. The king has the right to act arbitrarily and deal with the clan.
