"Each has its own merits. Shang Wanbai replied lightly.
Emperor Xiqin's eyes narrowed slightly: "Bangbai, you didn't tell the truth." โ
Shang Wan's white face did not change, and said lightly: "Although the prince acted recklessly, his heart was simple, and there was nothing wrong with him. The second prince is gifted and intelligent, but he is tactful, which is both an advantage and a disadvantage. โ
The crown prince and the second prince are only princes at the moment, not emperors, so being too stupid and too shrewd is not what Emperor Xiqin wants, so these two people are just half a catty. What Shang Bangbai didn't say was that if you think about it in the long run, from the perspective of being a monarch, the second prince Qin Jingzhong is more suitable, of course, just say it in your heart, Emperor Xiqin is not dead yet, and there is no need for a prince who has the ability to be a monarch now.
"How did the queen raise the prince, a prince of a country, and her words and deeds seemed to be without a brain. There was no lack of dislike in Emperor Xiqin's tone, but he didn't say that the second prince had his heart.
For the crown prince, Emperor Xiqin was both angry at his incompetence, but he was also glad that he was incompetent, the prince who was too smart, didn't that mean that he could take over his country at any time, so what else did he need to do as an emperor.
Shang Bangbai couldn't see Emperor Xiqin's thoughts, and chuckled: "Your Majesty, you are in the prime of life, why worry, whether it is the crown prince or the second prince, they all need to be tempered." โ
Emperor Xiqin shook his head: "I see that some ministers in the court can't wait to stand in line. "Take today's incident as an example, these courtiers are clearly pulling gangs and factions.
"Your Majesty. "Shang Wanbai owes himself, and Emperor Xiqin is afraid that he has already had an idea, so he doesn't need to say more......
Shang Bangbai went back to the house directly in addition to the palace gate, and someone in the house was waiting for him.
"Bangbai, you're finally back. Qi Yan smiled and said, "No way, our Shang Prime Minister is a big celebrity in front of Emperor Xiqin." โ
The corners of Shang Wanbai's mouth twitched: "The door is there, don't send it slowly." โ
The guy teased him.
Qi Yan smiled: "I'm praising you...... Well, let's not talk about that. How's that happening to what I've asked you to do?"
Shang Wanbai nodded: "Your Majesty has ordered me to secretly investigate this matter." โ
"Thank you, Bang Bai. Qi Yan rarely bowed to Shang Wanbai.
Shang Bangbai just picked up the teacup and said with a smile: "Don't thank me, I'm also for my poor niece." If it weren't for his father's recommendation of Ling Fuma, he would not have died. โ
For the sake of state affairs, the generalissimo of Shang recommended Ling Juma to guard the southern Xinjiang before his death, but he did not expect to cause him such a disaster, but let him die young, Shang Wanbai couldn't help but ask himself in a muffled voice, the generalissimo of Shang under Jiuquan knew that he would regret it.
"Once the evil thoughts in my heart arise, they can't disappear, even if there is no matter of the southern Xinjiang commander, Ling Guogong may not be ruthless. Qi Yan patted him on the shoulder and comforted.
"Although Duke Ling Guo inherited the position of duke, but his mental means are not superior, that is, ordinary posture, he killed Ling Juma and Princess Anding, and no one noticed, I am afraid that it is not so simple. Shang Wanbai's brows furrowed slightly.
Obviously, Shang Bangbai and Qi Yan thought of going together.
"That's why I wish you were the one to look into it yourself. Qi Yan said, "Back then, Emperor Xiqin sent Dali Temple to investigate this case, but he couldn't find out a result, except for you, I can't think of anyone else who can find out about this matter." โ
"How did Haoyue know that the Zhao family bought the murder?" Shang Wanbai was also quite skeptical.
Yue'er said that she only found out after overhearing the conversation between Ling Guogong and the Zhao family, so she always thought that the people who killed her parents were Ling Guogong and his wife. Yue'er originally wanted to bite out Ling Guogong through the mouth of the Zhao family, but Ling Guogong used his son to threaten the Zhao family. โ
Shang Wanbai thought thoughtfully: "Ling Guogong has never seen such a leak in his work, there must be someone behind him who is helping him." โ
"That's right, so it's up to you. Yue'er is still in the Lingguo Mansion right now, I am very worried about her safety, and this matter must be found out as soon as possible. Qi Yan looked quite solemn.
Shang Wanbai rarely saw such a serious Qi Yan, and said with a light smile: "Don't worry, I will find a way to deal with this matter." โ
"By the way, there's one thing I think needs to let you know, you should plan ahead. โ
"Oh?" Shang Wanbai looked at Qi Yan, what else was there to do with him?
"The contenders for the throne are not only the crown prince and the second prince, but also a prince who is hidden among the courtiers. โ
Shang Wanbai's heart was shocked, and he instantly regained his composure: "Who is it?" In the royal family, such a thing is not strange.
"Wen Mohan. โ
"Wen Mohan ......" Shang Wanbai said thoughtfully, "The sister of the Marquis of Zhenyuan is the late Wen Guifei, and Wen Mohan is actually the son of Wen Guifei?"
Qi Yan nodded: "I also learned this news by accident, although Xiqin seems to be calm at the moment, but it is a matter of time before the princes compete for the throne, you are the prime minister, you must want to win you over, you have to be careful." โ
"Shang Bangbai follows the ancestral teachings of the merchant and seeks the well-being of the people of Western Qin, and whoever is the emperor has nothing to do with me. โ
What kind of gang, he won't participate, he is just a pure minister.
"It's good that you know in your heart, I still have to leave beforehand, and I will leave. โ
After Qi Yan left, Shang Wanbai picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and muttered: "Wen Mohan ......" thought of the temptation of Emperor Xi Qin today, and suddenly smiled lightly: "It turns out that it is not only to test them, but also to test me." โ

But it was said that as soon as Ling Guogong got out of the court, he went straight to the old lady's courtyard.
"You all go out. As soon as Ling Guogong entered the house, he first sent down a group of maids, even Zhou's mother.
"What's going on again?" Old Madam Ling couldn't help but sigh when she saw his panicked appearance, and knew that nothing was good.
Ling Guogong hurriedly said: "Mother, I almost died in the court today. โ
Old Madam Ling was stunned: "What's the matter, who wants to kill you?"
"It's not that there are a few adults in Wang Shangshu, who are not in harmony with me on weekdays, and they want to step on me at this time, and ask Your Majesty to punish me heavily, if it weren't for the prince and the second prince to say two fair words for me, I don't know if I can come back alive to see you today." Ling Guogong thought of Wang Shangshu and the others in the court, and his teeth itched angrily.
"The tiger fell in Pingyang and was bullied by the dogs, you bear with it for the time being, the matter was done by the Zhao family, it has nothing to do with you, as long as there is no evidence, you will be fine." Old Madam Ling's tone was sure, the more she couldn't mess with herself at this time.
"Mother, I'm just worried that the girl is still living in the house, she must be paying attention to my every move all the time, and it will be terrible if she finds out. โ
Old Madam Ling reprimanded coldly: "You are a dignified grandfather of the country, can't you even do this little thing?" I'm worried that a girl who hasn't even caught your handle will grab your handle, if she really catches your handle, you should be ashamed to death!"
It's angry and indisputable, that's probably it.
When Old Madam Ling said this, Rao is Ling Guogong's cheeks couldn't help but turn red.
"Mother, Ling Haoyue stays in the house, sooner or later it will be a scourge. โ
"What do you want to do? I've told you you you can't touch her, and if something happens to her, you'll be the first person to suspect her. โ
Ling Guogong shook his head: "Mother, I mean you can't touch her, but you can marry her off, since Your Majesty intends to let her get married, then after she and Nanqi, she won't come back easily." โ
Old Madam Ling pondered in her heart, raised her head and said, "But the matter of harmony can only be ordered by His Majesty, and we can't be the master." โ
"We can't be the master, but there is one person who can. Ling Guogong smiled, "Queen Mother." โ
"Mother, you enter the palace and talk to the Queen Mother, now that Ling Haoyue's Xiao family's marriage has been canceled, this is not a glorious thing for a girl's family, should this marriage also be decided, the Queen Mother naturally went back to Emperor Xiqin to talk about this matter. โ
"This method will work, I will arrange it, you don't have to worry about it, you can stop for the next two days, don't have extra actions, don't even have superfluous thoughts. "Old Madam Ling was very worried about Ling Guogong, and gave thousands of instructions.

Princess Anding's death was not a rogue, but a murder by the Zhao family, of course, this matter also reached the ears of the Queen Mother, who was furious and angrily smashed several vases of tribute.
"Queen Mother, you dissipate your anger, you shouldn't make a big fuss. Aunt Yu persuaded on the side.
The Queen Mother couldn't help crying: "How is the mourning family not angry, Jingjing is the only daughter of the mourning family, and she was actually killed by the poisonous woman of the Zhao family, and the mourning family can't wait to eat her flesh and drink her blood!"
"What's going on?" As soon as Emperor Xiqin walked in, he saw debris all over the ground, as well as the Queen Mother leaning on the soft couch to wipe her tears.
Hearing the voice of Emperor Western Qin, the Queen Mother got up directly, and then knelt straight towards Emperor Western Qin.
"What are you doing, Queen Mother. Emperor Xiqin was shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward to support her, although the queen mother was not her biological mother, but she raised him since she was a child, and supported him to ascend to the throne, he couldn't stand this kneeling.
The Queen Mother tried her best to hold back her tears: "Your Majesty, the mourning family has nothing to ask for, but to ask Your Majesty to find out the real culprit, otherwise the mourning family will have no shame to see Jingjing and Yuanqian after they die." โ
mentioned her daughter and son-in-law who died early, the Queen Mother's tears still couldn't hold back, and they fell down vigorously.
Sure enough, just as Emperor Xiqin was worried, the Queen Mother was not stupid, and naturally knew that there were people behind the Zhao family, so this matter must be investigated.
"Queen Mother, rest assured, Jingjing is my own sister, of course I will find the murderer and avenge her. It's just that now that the Zhao family is dead and the clue is broken again, in order not to startle the snake, I sent someone to investigate this matter in secret. โ
Hearing Emperor Xiqin say this, the Queen Mother's expression eased slightly: "Thank you, Your Majesty." The mourning family has one more thing to discuss with His Majesty. โ
