Early the next morning, news spread from the palace that the minister of Dali Temple had found out about Chu Yan's assassination. It was because Chu Yan had offended someone in a previous case that he had a grudge against Chu Yan.
The emperor actually suppressed this matter.
Chu Yan was not surprised by this. According to the emperor's preference for King Qin, even if King Qin did too much, he would protect King Qin more. However, Chu Yan never expected to bring down King Qin through such a trivial matter. His purpose , but just to let this matter plant a fire in the emperor's heart.
After all, a single spark can start a prairie fire.
Inside the palace.
When King Qin was called into the palace by the emperor, he already knew why.
The King of Qin knelt on the ground, his mind calm: "If I say that this matter was not done by me, will my father believe me?"
The emperor didn't speak, and looked at King Qin expressionlessly, with a trace of obvious disappointment in his eyes.
From the eyes of the emperor, King Qin already understood everything. Even if he told the truth at this time, it would become sophistry in the emperor's heart.
"Since father has already condemned his son and minister in his heart, there is nothing for the minister to say." King Qin smiled wryly, bowed and kowtowed: "Please forgive me, father."
He had already thought of a solution overnight yesterday, but when he saw the evidence found by the ministers of the Dali Temple, he already knew that he was stumped this time. If the person who was found out was not himself, he would have believed it.
The emperor sighed, got up and walked in front of King Qin, bent down to help him up, and looked at him: "I know you have a lot of opinions on the marriage I gave to Chu Yan and Le'an, but it's fine if it's another woman. Le'an is your aunt's biological daughter, I am sorry for your mother and concubine, but I am also sorry for your aunt, you should understand me."
King Qin bowed his head and didn't speak. If he had known about such a situation, he wouldn't have helped Princess Jinyang and the others lie if he was killed!
But it is too late to say these things now, it is impossible for King Qin to shake this matter out and dig his own grave.
"Hey!" The emperor sighed, he also came here when he was young, so he couldn't see King Qin's unwillingness: "When you sit in the position of Zhen in the future, you will understand that you can get any kind of woman you want, You don’t have to be obsessed with that one.”
King Qin gritted his teeth: "My son understands."
This kind of thing that was obviously not done by him, but he still insisted on admitting it really made King Qin feel uncomfortable.
Although he was indeed ready to attack Chu Yan.
The emperor persuaded King Qin earnestly: "Chu Yan is a useful talent, you have to reject him, and in the future Chu Yan will become a very sharp knife by your side. You should know how to choose between a sharp blade and a woman."
In the eyes of the emperor, although there was some rift between King Qin and Chu Yan, in the eyes of the emperor, there was still room for repairing the rift.
King Qin didn't understand what the emperor was thinking, and asked instead: "This kind of thing has already happened, and the father thinks that the minister and Chu Yan can still work together?"
"Chu Yan is a smart man, he knows what to do." The emperor looked at the King of Qin and said, "And you, even if you want to give up a knife, you have to wait until it is completely useless. Push away a sharp blade. Not a wise choice."
King Qin was silent. He knew that what the emperor said was reasonable, but he was unwilling to accept it.
Although he knew that King Qin's temperament was a bit ruthless, the emperor couldn't help being biased because of his special feelings for King Qin. He patted King Qin on the shoulder: "I told you that the position of crown prince is yours. Hold on."
"After the turmoil of this matter is over, I will find an opportunity to make you the crown prince. Don't make troubles again, and others will not be able to threaten you. I hope that after seeing you, you will be brothers and friends, not brothers and sisters who will kill each other."
The emperor was very patient with King Qin.
Hearing the emperor's words, King Qin's eyes moved and he nodded.
The emperor said again: "Go back first. During this period of time, you should first reflect on yourself in the mansion. When you have figured it out, when will you come to see me again?"
Is this to temporarily restrain my feet? what is this? Said to give him a sweet date, but the price is to slap him first
"Yes." King Qin's expression was stiff.
Looking at King Qin's back when he left, the emperor shook his head and sighed, and took out a sapphire jade pendant from the drawer under the desk case. The emperor recalled, "You are the spirit in the sky, please protect him from going astray."
otherwise…
The emperor put the jade pendant back into the drawer, and slowly closed his eyes.
Prince Yan's Mansion, after hearing about the emperor's handling of this matter, Prince Yan only sighed: "Brother Huang is really confused."
In Uncle Anjing's Mansion, Chu Yan spread the news that he had woken up early in the morning. Now that he woke up, it was not good for Chu Yan to stay in Uncle Anjing's mansion any longer. On the same day, Su Yan said goodbye to the old lady, packed up her things and prepared to return to Prince Jing's mansion.
The old lady was worried about Chu Yan's body, so she went to check it out herself, and she was relieved only after making sure that he was awake.
When Zhong Ning heard that Su Yan was going to leave, she immediately wrapped her up and pestered Su Yan to go with her to Prince Jing's Mansion. Zhong Ning blinked her innocent eyes, and kept shaking Su Yan's arm: "Senior sister, My mother hugs me every day, don't let me do this, don't let me do that, take me with you when you go back later, I promise that I will be honest and not cause trouble for you, senior sister, please."
"Okay, okay, don't shake it, I will be shaken to pieces by you in a while." Su Yan said with a smile: "You put down the burden first, I still have something for you to do for me."
"What's the matter?" Zhong Ning put down the burden as she said.
What's up? She had no intention of letting the fourth prince send someone to assassinate Chu Yan this time.
Su Yan glanced at Chu Yan and saw that he was leaning against the head of the bed reading a book, she dragged Zhong Ning outside, and whispered in Zhong Ning's ear what she asked Zhong Ning to do.
Listening to what Su Yan said in her ear, Zhong Ning's eyes became brighter and brighter: "Such a fun thing, why didn't you say it earlier, senior sister?"
Su Yan smiled and pinched Zhong Ning's excited face: "Go now."
Seeing Zhong Ning ran out happily, Su Yan poured herself a cup of tea and blew on the hot tea, Su Yan couldn't help but sigh that her heart was getting softer and softer.
Her original plan was to send Su Rong to the fourth prince's mansion with a different identity. When Su Rong meets the fourth prince, she will definitely not be able to make money. No matter whether Su Rong is dead or alive in the fourth prince's mansion, Su Yan can use Su Rong Sue the fourth prince.
The fourth prince is not the king of Qin, kidnapping an official woman, such a trivial matter as life, is enough to cut off the future of the fourth prince.
But when Su Yan sent people to pick up Su Rong, she heard that Su Rong was crazy. Su Yan thought about it all morning, and she found that as time went by, her hatred for Su Rong was not so strong. Rong is crazy now, and Su Yan doesn't want to do things so badly now.
Now that she is married, these are the right to pray for her future children.
Chu Yan put down the book and asked casually, "What did you ask Zhong Ning to do?"
