Chapter 946: Little Man
Nobuyi knew that the emperor still believed in the prince when he asked him. He had already become suspicious of the crown prince. Because of a few moments, he clearly realized that what the prince's original intention was, in fact, before he came to the Central Plains, he was negligent in researching. Because Qu Shu's mother is a person who will make him confused once he mentions it.
At this time, the Nine Emperor Princes also sensed their recklessness and credulity. But the problem is that before this, he would never trust the prince easily. Whenever something happens, I will think carefully, and I will never be as hasty as this time. Actually, the reason seems to be too easy to find, that is, because the bait thrown to him by the prince this time is big enough and convincing enough. It's a temptation you can't refuse.
When the emperor looked at the prince, who was not in the slightest panic, he had already learned from the whispers of his chamberlain that the prince might have disappeared for some time when they resisted the entry of the forbidden army. That must have been the time for him to go looking for reinforcements.
Since the corpses of the guards who had been charred by the fire were removed, dozens of palace lamps were re-installed in the Xixuan courtyard. Therefore, the crown prince who walked slowly here did not have a trace of wrinkled dress, and it looked even more neat and tidy.
The emperor raised his gaze to the height of his cheeks, and looked carefully, and his son, who had become more and more dangerous, instantly appeared in front of his eyes as a child. However, it seems to be just a fleeting moment. It's not like what he is now. Except for the loss of his son's arm, everything else seemed to be recovering well. He was so brilliant that he seemed to have been born to shine on the earth. It also seems that at this moment, he feels that he can understand the mind of this prince, and with a glorious body, he stands in the most glorious place. The prince had already bowed quickly, but he did not get up but knelt there. The emperor didn't ask him to get up, but just asked in a dignified voice, "The prince is still in the ground, but he invited your ninth brother to visit at night?"
Everyone is waiting for what the prince's sophistry will be!
The prince's face was indifferent, "Everything was done by me and the ninth brother." ”
That's all the answers. It's like a dream.
The feeling of the Nine Emperor Princes was that he had long known that he would drag himself into the water, so he was not really stunned by the thunder on the flat ground, he quickly got up and left his seat, and also knelt down in front of the emperor, "Erchen doesn't know what the imperial brother was talking about just now! I don't know why he said that! All the things, Erchen didn't participate in it, it is the real fact! Tonight is too, Erchen is the first time to see the prince during this time." The Nine Emperor Princes were already a little out of breath at the end.
The Emperor's eyes were filled with innumerable lights, but still, dull as darkness, and he nodded to the side of the stranger, who had already been prepared for his sons, and said, "Now I don't believe what the two of them say. But I know that one of them will speak a lie. That person, let Aiqing ask for me!"
The crown prince and the Nine Emperor Princes have just noticed, I don't know when, this little man who stood behind their father and emperor, his unsightly appearance, he didn't know his origin, he didn't know his identity. Apparently a mysterious character that their father deliberately prepared for them.
The little man received the emperor's will and walked towards them step by step. At this time, the emperor raised his hand and asked the two princes to get up. The little man circled around them again and circled twice. didn't say too much to greet, just nodded politely, and asked, "What about His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also agrees, is this the first time you have met in a long time?"
The prince nodded solemnly, "Yes, it's the first time, but we've been secretly exchanging information before. If you keep meeting in person like this, it will be too troublesome and too easy to be discovered. My ninth brother has always been a cautious person. There are many things that he never wants to show up in person. ”
When the Nine Emperor Princes on the side heard him say this, they were excited and wanted to rush up. was stopped by the forbidden army behind him. The little man turned in his direction, made a booing gesture, and said softly, "The one who answers the question first will not have the advantage! His Royal Highness Nine doesn't need to be in a hurry, there are many problems with villains. When it comes time to ask His Highness Jiu, I hope His Highness will not get bored. ”
Then he turned his head, looked in the direction of the prince again, and nodded thoughtfully, "What His Royal Highness the Crown Prince just said about the first secret letter with the Nine Emperor Princes was before or after the assassination of the county lord of Qushu?"
"Before it happens!"
"How can this be proven?" the little man asked quickly, and when the voice was connected into a sentence, it was like forming a sharp blade and flying at full speed towards the prince.
"I still keep all the secret letters between us!" The prince's reaction was very flat, giving people the impression that even if the flying blade flew towards his heart with a clear purpose, he just treated it indifferently, and let the invisible blade collapse first when it approached his heart.
"But if something that is really confidential is often destroyed when it is confirmed, why didn't Your Highness do that?"
"Because I don't believe that such a well-thought-out plan can be discovered by others, and so quickly. ”
The little man laughed, "Your Highness's noble self-confidence is at work. But why did His Highness's choice be the Nine Emperor Princes? Among all the princes, the quiet and innocent Nine Emperor Princes should be His Highness's biggest opponent, or potential opponent. The crown prince understood what he meant by asking, and he was guiding him to say that his invitation to the Nine Emperor Princes was nothing more than a disguise in the name of the invitation.
The little man waited patiently for a while, as if he was waiting for the prince to finish thinking about what he was thinking, and then then asked, "After all, if you want to harm someone, you must have the opportunity to get closer to him to make it easier to start." For example, there are secrets that are involved enough to give them to your enemies, which is tantamount to killing them. ”
The prince's gaze was fixed, looking at the little man in front of him. This person's method of judging the case is strange enough, if it is a general situation, he should start with a fixed event, such as asking questions centered on Qu Shu, rather than being as chaotic as now. But it seems that this clutter is also really useful, and it can make people chaotic in an instant. The prince smiled, "But I don't understand, what kind of harm is that Mr. is talking about!"
The little man didn't seem to be curious at all, the prince would ask such a rhetorical question, and, as if he really thought he wouldn't know, explained to him with great interest, "It's the kind of eradication for the purpose of competing for the emperor's admiration." In fact, in many dynasties, they will call it the succession. If I had used this word from the beginning, everything would have seemed obvious. But that's cruel to say. So, we had to change the vocabulary. It's a testament to the fact that things weren't so harsh that they just made a small mistake. ”
