Liu Zhao played a book in the court, and he had to rest for a few days. One was to do funerals for his son, and the other was to take care of the sick old mother.
The news of his son's sudden death shocked everyone. The emperor was also surprised and asked what was going on.
This is the most critical point. Yunyue lowered his eyes, not looking at Liu Zhao, his ears were always paying attention.
Liu Zhao sighed and said, "Going back to the emperor, there is no way for him to teach his children. The boy learned from others and went to see the Red Mansion to drink flowers and wine. In the end, something went wrong and was beaten to death by mistake.
When the emperor heard this, he frowned slightly. Although his death was not very glorious, he knew in his heart that it was normal for these officials' sons to drink flower wine, and it was not uncommon to be jealous.
It's just... It's more serious to be beaten to death by mistake.
He thought, turning his head to look at Cui Chao, "Jing Zhaosi."
Cui Chao immediately walked out of the team, bowed his head and gave a salute. Before he said anything else, Liu Zhao continued: "Going back to the emperor, this matter has been handed over to Jing Zhaosi, and Master Cui is also doing his best to handle it. Do things well, I'm afraid the situation will be worse."
Cui Chao was overjoyed, but he didn't dare to bring it out. He squeezed the corner of his mouth to suppress the urge to grin, and said, "This is my duty, Mrs. Liu, please."
After he said, he knocked up and said: "Back to the emperor, the minister will do his best to investigate this matter, please rest assured, the emperor."
The emperor nodded, and said in a comforting tone: "Okay, it's so good. Liu Aiqing, don't be too sad, just let you take a rest for a while, besides..."
As he said, he turned his head and looked at the chief eunuch, and said, "The Ministry of Internal Affairs prepares some good supplements and sends them to the Liu Mansion, so that Mrs. Liu can recover well."
"Yes. The old slave obeyed."
Liu Zhao hurriedly thanked him and said: "Thank you, the emperor, the emperor, the minister... really... thank you, the emperor Longen."
He turned over and over again and wouldn't say anything else, he could only say this, and he seemed very excited and sincere.
The emperor asked him to get up and return to the team, which was a complete end.
Yunyue wondered, Liu Zhao is... figured it out? Thinking about how there is no such thing as the old fourteen, there is no need to involve him? It is possible.
But he thought so quickly
It makes sense, and it is indeed a bit... Too fast.
In any case, the fourteenth princes of this level are considered to have escaped, let him breathe a sigh of relief, after the next dynasty... have to tell Qin Youran, right? This is all her credit.
I was thinking about this, and suddenly I heard someone say again: "Father, my son has this play."
He looked up and saw that it was Yun Zhao, the Seventh Prince.
The emperor nodded and said, "Is there any book, play it."
The seventh prince Yun Zhao said loudly: "Going back to the father, the son will join the second prince Yunyao. He embezzled the public silver and swallowed the silver used to transform the old city into his own pocket."
As soon as the voice fell, the whole room was in an uproar, and all the officials were talking about it. The emperor's expression also sank instantly, and he said coldly, "Where is Yunyao?"
The second prince Yunyao immediately left the team and knelt down and said: "Father, the son is here. The son is wronged, this matter... is nothing."
The emperor hadn't spoken yet, the seventh prince Yunzhao sneered and said, "Second brother, is it really nothing?"
"Of course it is." The second prince Yunyao smacked his neck and said angrily: "Old Qi, what do you mean? Where did I recruit you? You have planted on me like this for no reason!"
The seventh prince Yunzhao did not show weakness, and said loudly: "Is it planted? When the time comes, I will ask my father to send someone to find out. If you are really innocent, don't you need to be afraid?"
The second prince Yunyao stared, "What does this have to do with being scared? It's a matter of my face, oh, if you say yes, you can check it if you ask, how old are you?"
The blue veins on the forehead of the seventh prince Yun Zhao burst out. He is famous for his hot temper, "Second, how old is I, how old do you say I am? Don’t want anything if you do that kind of thing yourself. face!"
"What did I do? You said..."
"You know what you did!"
The two of you said a word, one louder than one, and one louder than the other. Everyone who listened by frowned and bowed their heads, and they couldn't look directly at them.
The emperor sitting on it was so heavy that it was dripping with water. He couldn't bear to pat the chair and stroked his hand and said, "Enough! Shut me up!"
The second prince and the seventh prince hurriedly closed their mouths, bowed their heads and dared not say anything
.
The emperor looked at them, his hands trembling with anger, if it weren't in front of the hundred officials, he would have to make a few mouthfuls at them.
"Look at what you look like! Are you still a prince? Do you want a royal face? Just like your virtues, I am ashamed to say that it is my son? It is no different from a shrew cursing the street! Is this still my Golden Temple? Look at this is the vegetable market! It makes you happy and smoky!"
The emperor cursed, his chest hurt a little with anger, neither the second prince nor the seventh prince dared to say anything, they knelt there and listened carefully.
After a while, the emperor eased his breath before asking, "Old Qi, you said Yunyao was corrupt, is there any evidence?"
The seventh prince bowed his head upwards and said: "Father, yes, otherwise the children will not report the second brother for no reason."
As he said, he took out a letter from his sleeve, and the second prince stared at the letter, not knowing what it was.
The eunuch walked down from above, took the letter, returned to the emperor, and handed it over.
The seventh prince said: "Father, this was obtained by the son-chen last night. Someone stuffed this thing into the door of the son-chen at night. The person at the door opened the door to see, but there was no figure. It felt that the matter was very important. He hurriedly reported it to Erchen, and he opened it and looked at it. He was taken aback. He thought about entering the palace immediately, but was afraid of disturbing his father, so he thought of handing it over when he went to court today."
He spoke very clearly and organized. The emperor didn't speak for a while, opened the envelope and pulled out the contents, and unfolded it to take a closer look.
The more you look at his face, the more ugly and the more scary you look. The second prince feels nervous, wondering what it is and how lethal it is.
He thought for a while, cleared his throat and said, "Old Qi, I'm wondering. Let's not say whether I am corrupt or not. Even if someone reports it, why did you report it to you? Old Qi, what do you care about?"
Yun Yue watched today’s developments with cold eyes, and he also had a question with the second prince in his heart. Regarding corruption, about the second prince, it was nothing more than that area of the city, but even if he didn’t do a good job, there was any omission. If someone is dissatisfied and wants to report him, they should not report to the Seventh Prince.
