Chapter 383: Endless

"Cen Feng, what do you mean by this? You don't bewitch the public in front of your father, accusing Sang and scolding Huai, if you have anything to say, this palace has a clear conscience, and will never let you be afraid of you in the slightest. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

The words "thief shouting to catch thief" in Cen Feng's mouth obviously made the already weak-hearted prince feel angry, and the whole person seemed a little excited.

If the people of the Spirit Tu Division hadn't appeared at that time, Gao Heng and his men and horses would have died long ago, once and for all.

Then, as long as he uses the same method of extermination, he will eliminate all the people who know and participate in this matter except Yuan Peng, then this matter can quietly become an untraceable death case.

In the end, even if a monstrous wave was set off, even if Emperor Zhou had nowhere to start, even if he was involved in it because of some clues, he would be able to get out safely.

After all, Emperor Zhou did not have many heirs under his knees, but were regarded as usable talents, and there were even fewer who could inherit the unification.

If Gao Heng dies this time, Emperor Zhou will not punish himself heavily, even if he wants to take care of the future of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

But the result was that Cen Feng suddenly appeared halfway, which not only allowed Gao Heng to retreat, but also destroyed all his plans.

Not only that, but it also provoked Emperor Zhou to be quite concerned about this matter, and it seemed to have the intention of investigating it thoroughly.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a little restless, but this matter is full of doubts, and His Majesty has a lot of doubts in his heart. ”

Cen Feng didn't pay attention to the prince's obvious anger, but always faced Emperor Zhou, and his tone was tepid.

"Because when the subordinate arrived with his men and horses, he did see with his own eyes that His Royal Highness was instructing the archers of the city defense battalion to shoot His Royal Highness King Yan and his subordinates with arrows, and there was a great tendency to kill. The Soul Slaughter Division and the others can all see it clearly, does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also want to deny it?"

The prince snorted coldly when he heard this, knowing that Cen Feng would definitely bite himself at this point, he had already prepared in his heart.

After glancing at him fiercely, he immediately showed a bitter face towards Emperor Zhou, showing a grievance of being bullied.

"Father, at that time, the third brother only thought that Erchen had captured Cheng Jinzhi, and led his people to draw swords against each other, pressing step by step, and there were only a few people under Erchen, outnumbered, and the situation was really critical, so people took the token to the city defense camp to transfer archers to defend themselves. Erchen is really forced to do this!"

He deliberately raised his voice with a sad expression, and when he said something excited, he reached out to cover the wound on his shoulder, pretending to be forbearing.

"Erchen's wound here was precisely the one that was wounded by the Ling Yuan Sword in the third brother's hand. He showed no mercy to the royal brother of Erchen, and only wanted to put Erchen to death, if Erchen didn't take precautions again, his father and mother were afraid that they would be today... I'm afraid I'll never see Erchen standing here alive anymore. ”

The reason why the crown prince did not deny everything as before was because he knew that Emperor Zhou had special trust in Cen Feng in his heart.

Even if you don't believe in his words, you will definitely believe the last seven or eight points.

If he blindly refutes it, it will inevitably make Emperor Zhou think that he is suspected of deliberately exculpating his crimes, which will cause a counterproductive effect.

"Your Majesty, you know that His Royal Highness King Yan has always been calm and calm, and he is by no means the kind of person who acts impulsively indiscriminately. Moreover, when the lower officials arrived, due to the princess's physical condition, he needed to immediately summon the imperial doctor for treatment, and he had clearly brought people to prepare to leave at that time. Xia Guan really couldn't see that he posed any threat to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. ”

"Cen Feng, originally this palace didn't want to pick on it, but since you have to help the third brother speak, then this palace has something to say. As the prefect of the Soul Slaughter Division, although you do not form a party on the surface, keep a distance from the ministers, and are only loyal to your father, but in private you have a very good personal relationship with the third brother, and now that the third brother's princess has an accident, you will naturally help him speak. You and him are simply in cahoots. ”

"Enough. ”

Listening to the words of the prince and Cen Feng, it seems like a bottomless pit, and you can never argue the truth of the matter.

Emperor Zhou reprimanded sternly, although the volume was not high, it was obviously mixed with an impatient anger.

For Emperor Zhou, who reigned over the world, it was really a shame for the royal family to turn against each other and kill each other.

This matter is related to the face of the entire royal family, and it must not be spread to the outside world and become a laughing stock of the court and the people.

If he could, of course, he hoped that this matter was just a misunderstanding from beginning to end, and that he could settle the matter as soon as possible.

Instead of going on forever as it is now.

"Why hasn't Heng'er arrived yet, have you sent someone to pass it on?"

He took a deep breath with a solemn expression, raised his hand and rubbed the wrinkled corners of his tired eyes, and suddenly showed his fragile side.

After all, just listening to the prince's words, even if Emperor Zhou wanted to settle the matter as soon as possible, he couldn't make a ruling arbitrarily, and he still had to ask Gao Heng to know in his heart.

In the past few days, the Antu people of the northwest tribe have rebelled on the border of the Great Zhou, although tens of thousands of iron cavalry have been sent to suppress the rebellion, but the situation has been repeated, and the war situation has not improved for a few days.

And the surrounding north has the Western Jin Dynasty, and the east has the Southern Chu, all of them are eyeing the Great Zhou, just wanting to take advantage of the situation.

Now that the situation outside is unpredictable, the palace is not peaceful, Emperor Zhou is old, and sometimes he does feel a little powerless.

In his heart, he originally had high hopes for the son in front of him, but this expectation was worn out little by little by the passage of time.

He sometimes asks himself, the reason why he insists on refusing to shake the crown prince's position as the prince is because he doesn't want to shake the foundation of the Great Zhou Dynasty, so that the dynasty will be chaotic and the country will be frustrated?

Or do you simply not want to deny yourself and ruin the hard work that you have cultivated and established for many years?

Gao Heng's reputation and fame among the princes and ministers over the years, he was not unaware.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Yan loves his wife very much, and the lower officials heard that Princess Yan was physically and mentally damaged because of the fire, and even the child who was just less than three months pregnant could not be saved, and he must be sad about it at this moment. Summoned by His Majesty, it will surely arrive soon. ”

Cen Feng said in a low tone, obviously feeling sorry and sighing for Gao Heng and Cheng Jinzhi, and his face was gloomy.

"Alas, of course Heng'er's feelings for Jin Zhi I know, this is their first child, and it is inevitable to be sad and sad. ”

Emperor Zhou said earnestly when he heard the words, closed his eyes slightly and nodded.

After a moment of silence, when he opened his eyes again, a stunning fire suddenly appeared in those majestic and sharp eyes.

"Who is behind this, it is important to find out. Since this person dares to hold the emperor's relatives hostage, and now he is plotting to kill the royal heirs, and he has also caused my two sons to turn against each other, he must be cut with a thousand knives!"
