Gu Cangping was very smart, he didn't let Zhao Bairen strictly investigate who was behind the assassination of the crown prince, because it was easy to get around himself.

There are people in the world who have the courage and motive to assassinate the crown prince...... One hand can be counted, whether it is counting upright or backwards, that is not an object that Gu Cangping can afford to provoke, once Emperor Lao Tzu suddenly twitched his brain, and said "Aiqing, then this case will be handed over to you to lead the investigation, or assist in the investigation", then won't he just sit on wax?

If you really find a big person, do you report it or hide it?

To report, although it can hit political opponents, it is also a matter of piercing the sky, and there is a high probability that Emperor Lao Tzu will hide this matter, and the big thing will be turned into a small thing, and the small thing will be turned into a small thing.

After all, this is likely to be a terrible royal scandal, which will be laughed at by the world.

Once a ruler loses his majesty, he loses the legitimacy of his rule, which is something that no ruler can tolerate.

Hide it, then Gu Cangping naturally has a political stain, which is equivalent to giving people a handle.

Therefore, the assassination of the prince is a shocking case, but no one dares to mention it or touch it.

Even a bold character like Gu Cangping only dared to save the country and use this case to attack political opponents.

Yes, I don't dare to touch the mastermind behind the scenes, but how does the mastermind behind the scenes know the whereabouts of the prince? This can always be checked, right? How did the mastermind behind the scenes hook up with the two big devils in the cultivation world, this can always be checked, right?

If you have to look it down, it will be terrible.

The officials of the crown prince's line hold the sword of Shang Fang in their hands, and they have great power and can thoroughly investigate any officials in the government and the opposition except for the emperor, even including the princes and marquis.

That kind of situation and situation is definitely not what the rival forces of the crown prince want to see.

But if an official comes forward to oppose it, it is simply looking for death.

When the prince was assassinated, you actually opposed the investigation? What do you want to do? Do you have a ghost in your heart? Don't confess yourself?

Favoring is tantamount to holding it upside down and giving others artifacts to kill oneself; opposing it is tantamount to giving others a handle and throwing oneself into the net.

For a while, the officials of the four princes and the first family gasped and looked at Gu Cangping like a devil.

This is Gu Cangping's yang scheme!

No matter how you choose, you will fall for him!

Zhang Datong is the spiritual leader of the prince's officials, Ning Tongyi is the chief thinker of the country's decision-making around the prince, and Gu Cangping, a middle-level official, can become one of the core members of the prince's group because of his unguardable conspiracy and irresistible conspiracy!

For a moment, the court fell into a brief silence, and the pins could be heard.

Immediately afterwards, the officials of the prince's family were all overjoyed, and they stepped forward one after another and said, "The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister also seconded it!"

"The minister seconded the proposal, please ask Your Majesty to investigate this matter thoroughly!"

"The ministers seconded it!"

For a while, a terrible tide quickly gathered in the court, and the officials of the four princes and their families were about to lose their armor and collapse into an army.

At this time, the biggest flaw of the four princes and the first line was exposed: the power of the court was far inferior to that of the crown prince.

Just as the biggest flaw of the Tong Prince family is the lack of support from the cultivation world, so that they have not had high-end and powerful combat power as a backing support, and they almost lost everything when they encountered a daring assassination.

The flaws of the four princes are just the opposite of the crown prince, although the four princes have the support of the Qiankun Divine Sect, but compared with the prince's official connections and prestige, they seem very thin, and he is completely a younger brother in the court.

The Great Qi Dynasty is similar to the three-province and six-ministry system, and the official system is complex and huge, but it can be summarized simply: Zhongshu Province is similar to the cabinet, which is the body in charge of confidential information and issuing government decrees. Among them, there are five prime ministers, one prime minister, two prime ministers, and two vice ministers. When the emperor does not attend a small court meeting, three of the six people must be on duty, and in the large court meeting attended by the emperor, if there is no special reason, the cabinet of these five people is directly responsible to the emperor or the crown prince, providing decision-making advice to the emperor or the crown prince, so as to decide where the huge empire is going.

The subordinate province is in charge of the emperor's left and right, praise and guide the people's affairs, and the advisers deal with it, the emperor goes out, and the attendants participate in other matters, which are close to the emperor, easy to blow, and have great influence, but there is not much real power.

The Shangshu Province is the bureaucratic center of the entire empire, the highest government order body, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Crime, and the Ministry of Industry are set up under the Ministry of Shangshu, and the six Shangshu are the highest administrators of the department, second only to the prime minister in power. When the prime minister helps the emperor make decisions, and the emperor gives the will, they decide how the empire should go and how it should go.

The Qiankun Divine Cult has been in business for many years, and its tentacles have long been extended to the court, although they cannot be officials, it does not prevent them from influencing and controlling some officials to fall to them.

Among them, the prime minister in the cabinet, Gongsun Wang, is an extremely rare lonely minister of the Great Qi, he is neither an official of the crown prince's line, nor an official of the four princes' line, and is only loyal to the emperor.

The two prime ministers are all officials of the prince's line, and the remaining two deputy ministers are supported by the Qiankun Divine Cult and the other is the four princes.

However, although the prime minister has decision-making power in the cabinet, he does not have the right of veto, and compared with the head of the veto, he is the younger brother; while the deputy prime minister is even more unbearable in the cabinet, only has the right to make suggestions and speak, but has no decision-making power, and belongs to the younger brother of the younger brothers.

The remaining six Shangshu are also in the hands of Emperor Zhao Bairen, and the officials of the Prince's family have the positions of the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Punishment and the Ministry of Works, and even the servants of the Ministry of Officials, Households and Soldiers are also in their hands.

Among the six ministries, Shilang was the second official after Shangshu and had great power in his hands.

This shows the power of the prince in the court!

And the biggest problem of the Four Princes is that the think tank among them is Dong Daoming, and this person is ...... Not even a nine-rank official, he is just the chief of staff next to the fourth prince, and his identity can't even see the light.

Almost all the wisdom around the four princes was issued by him alone, and on the side of the prince's family, the think tank Gu Cangping himself was in the court, not only could he hide behind his back, but he could also go into battle shirtless at a critical time.

And as soon as he appeared, he immediately played the role of ascending to the heights, and the officials of the prince's family moved with the wind, and immediately surging and creating an amazing momentum.

On the other hand, on the side of the four princes, the dragons have no leader, and even if they oppose it, they also throw a mouse trap and dare not speak out.

At this time, the five bigwigs in the cabinet all pretended to be dead like mud puppets, and did not say a word, as if the affairs in the court had nothing to do with them.

The six Shangshu servants are even more irrelevant to themselves, they are high-ranking officials, and they will not easily go into the water when they are idle, once they are involved in the water, it is equivalent to losing an important position, and the losses are extremely heavy.

But seeing that the prince's side was about to make a final decision, Ma Ce, the deputy minister of the fourth prince's side, was a little anxious, he turned his head slightly, and glanced at an official in the fourth row behind him.

This five-grade official understood, and came out in a loud voice: "The minister, please strictly investigate the case of Taiyang Taishou Li Tian's dereliction of duty and cruelty to the people! Such a high-ranking official who has lost his conscience still wears black yarn is really a shame of the Great Qi, I hope Your Majesty will see it!"

This official didn't dare to collide with Gu Cangping's yang conspiracy at all, so he had to turn the gun and shoot at the most painful place of the other prince's family, so as to achieve the goal of encircling Wei and saving Zhao.

Gu Cangping is no one, how can he not deal with it?

Gu Cangping's eyes widened, his momentum was amazing, and he scolded sharply: "At this time, we are discussing the leakage of the prince's whereabouts, and strictly investigating the case of the two demons behind the scenes, colluding with the old demon of Thundercloud and assassinating the prince! Li Zhuohua, you are confusing the public, what is your intention! Could it be that you have a ghost in your heart!"

Sure enough, when the big hat was buttoned down, Li Zhuohua immediately knelt down and kowtowed: "The minister doesn't dare! The minister just asked His Majesty to find out the case of Taishou Li Tian!"

Gu Cangping immediately said: "Then we will discuss it a little more! At this time, we should discuss this matter first!"

After that, Gu Cangping knelt down at Zhao Bairen and said, "Please Your Majesty to be clear!"

One of them, the superintendent of the four princes, jumped out at this time, pointed at Gu Cangping and angrily reprimanded: "Treacherous! Gu Cangping, you colluded with hundreds of officials and had ill intentions! Are you forcing the palace? Are you a courtesy of a human minister!"

Gu Cangping did not change his color, and said loudly: "What the minister says is the desire of the people and the trend of the times! If Your Majesty thinks that the minister is rude, the minister will die in front of this Nine Dragon Pillar on the spot!"

After saying that, Gu Cangping lowered his head and was about to hit a huge stone pillar next to him.

Zhao Bairen hurriedly said: "Oh, nonsense, nonsense! Stop it, stop it!!"

Li Chengfeng really saw it in the end, although he was a layman, but he also saw at this time that the officials of the prince's family had won a big victory, Gu Cangping's fairy-like blow hit the weakness of the officials of the four princes' family, which was completely an angle they didn't expect, and all the preparations they made were in vain, and they were forced into a dead corner by Gu Cangping at a loss, full of ugliness.

Zhao Bairen said at this time: "This matter is not trivial, and it really has to be investigated to the end! However, I heard that there was a righteous cultivator who took action on the way to save the prince, and this person was once in the main hall. ”

This is nonsense, without the emperor's summons, how could Li Chengfeng appear here?

Li Chengfeng knew that it was time for him to appear at this time, he straightened his clothes, stepped forward with his head held high, knelt on the ground, and said loudly: "Li Chengfeng is washing the moon in the next month, please see Your Majesty!"
