Chapter 138: I can't help myself
"This case, I have been fully handed over to the Spirit Slaughter Division to take over the investigation, no one is allowed to meddle in this matter under any pretext, if there is a violation of the order, I will not spare it. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
After Emperor Zhou said these words sharply, it was equivalent to temporarily turning the page from the court at this moment, and even Gao Heng, the party, he did not say anything more.
Clear-eyed people know that there is no need to work so hard in this case, just because now two princes are involved for no reason, one of whom is the prince who will inherit the throne in the future, which is indeed not a thing worth making a fuss about in front of the civil and military officials for Emperor Zhou.
As for Gu Hanqing and the Gu family in his hands, although Emperor Zhou lives in the temple, he has already heard of it.
In his opinion, Gao Heng's participation in it may be just for the morality of his friends in his heart, and he wants to help his friends clear their names.
In this way, in addition to the prince's intention to take the opportunity to frame Gao Heng to stabilize his position, the only remaining suspicion is to kill people for self-preservation.
Of course, if he had to choose, Emperor Zhou would rather believe in the former.
Therefore, no matter what the truth of the final case is, he hopes to be able to handle the case as low-key and secretive as possible, so that he can leave room and room for maneuver when he finally handles it.
This is also his original intention to re-submit the case to the Tu Ling Division, who has never obeyed the emperor's orders alone.
However, in the end, he was a thief with a weak heart and panic in his heart, even if he was only reprimanded by Emperor Zhou in person, but the prince's forehead had unconsciously oozing a little beads of sweat.
Emperor Zhou did not punish him at this time, but he had already strictly forbidden to order everyone not to meddle in the case again.
On the surface, he was admonishing the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, but the implication of this extraneous statement was clearly for himself.
With Tu Lingsi intervening in this case, it will be a matter of time before the truth comes out.
When the time comes, the official silver robbery case in Bizhou will be involved, and his position as the crown prince will be in jeopardy.
At this time, he also used the trick of "abandoning the car to protect the commander" who thought he was wise and righteous, which indirectly pushed Cheng Yan to the enemy's camp.
People really can't be too self-righteous and rush to achieve results, and they should leave a way out for themselves in everything.
At this moment, the prince's heart can be described as collapsed.
At the same time, he also felt a resentful and murderous gaze projected from behind him.
There is no doubt that he doesn't need to look back to know that this gaze must have come from Cheng Yan, who was crossed the river and demolished the bridge by him.
"Heng'er. ”
Just as the prince was anxious and the ants in his heart were crawling around on the hot pot, Emperor Zhou suddenly stopped Gao Heng.
"Erchen is here. ”
Since the dragon drove to the Taiji Palace, Gao Heng has been silent, never saying a word from beginning to end, nor showing a trace of superfluous expression. Now seeing Emperor Zhou's summons, he stepped forward unhurriedly, and his complexion was much calmer than that of the prince opposite.
"Princess Nanchu and her envoy will arrive in the capital in a few days, and you will be responsible for all relevant reception matters at that time. ”
"Father, haven't you already handed over this matter to your son......
Hearing this, the prince suddenly raised his head and looked at Emperor Zhou, and just wanted to continue, but saw that Emperor Zhou's face sank and his eyes were sharp, so he could only stop talking in time, but his face was full of unwillingness.
"Do you think yesterday's matter is over?" Emperor Zhou's tone was cold, "These days, you just have to reflect on yourself in the East Palace, meditate on your own mistakes, and take care of the things that should be managed, and you don't have to worry about this matter." ”
Hearing Emperor Zhou's words, the prince could only commit himself, and retreated in a gloomy manner, but the anger in his heart erupted uncontrollably, almost burning through the soles of his feet.
He planned so hard to operate, originally thought that even if he couldn't overthrow the Yan Wangfu in one fell swoop, he would definitely be able to use Gu Hanqing to hit Gao Heng.
But now it seems that it is like making a wedding dress for others, and stealing chickens is not a recipe for rice.
"The retainers obeyed. ”
Emperor Zhou handed over the errand that was originally handed over to the prince to himself in front of all the courtiers, which was obviously rubbing the prince's sharpness and warning him to restrain himself. It's just that the prince on the side seems to be gritting his teeth at this time, and he doesn't notice it.
But at this time, what he was worried about was no longer this pending case, but Gao Xun standing behind him.
"Speaking of Nanchu's coming to the court and kissing, do you Aiqing have a suitable candidate for the royal family to marry the princess?"
As Gao Heng expected, Emperor Zhou really asked this in the next second.
As soon as Emperor Zhou's words fell, Gao Xun, who had been standing among the officials and doing nothing, felt a cold spine chill, and an ominous premonition suddenly rose in his heart.
At the same time, he could clearly feel the various gazes cast from different angles.
This gaze slapped into his face, as if to say-
"Your Royal Highness King Jin, don't be afraid, it's you. ”
All candidates for marriage with other countries and princesses are selected from among the unmarried heirs of the royal family. Except for the prince who is already married and is still young......
It is very unfortunate that even Gao Xun himself thinks that the most suitable person is better than him?
"Your Majesty, I think His Royal Highness King Jin is the most suitable. ”
"Your Majesty, the minister also thinks that His Royal Highness the King of Jin is the first choice.
"Your Majesty, the minister seconded the proposal. ”
"Your Majesty, the minister also seconded the proposal. ”
“……”
For a while, all the ministers in the palace seemed to have discussed it, and one after another spoke and admonished, and attacked them in groups, so that Emperor Zhou was powerless to resist, so he could only nod again and again.
Gao Heng originally wanted to say something for Gao Xun, but now that the situation is like a bamboo, it is too overwhelming, and he can only shrug his shoulders to Gao Xun, revealing an expression of powerlessness.
At the same time, I couldn't help but secretly rejoice that I had married Cheng Jinzhi.
Otherwise, the one who is besieged by the ministers above this hall at this moment is probably himself.
"These people who have suffered thousands of knives, usually always do turtles with shrunken heads and dare not rush ahead, when they are matchmakers, they are like three aunts and six women, I am not your son, what are you doing so energetically?"
Gao Xun gritted his teeth indignantly, and couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh, his mood was not only depressed or depressed, but also grief or grief.
He lowered his eyebrows, and the figure of the golden branch flashed in his mind, and his heart trembled, and he was even more depressed.
"Sixth brother, just think that you are what everyone wants. ”
Gao Heng raised his hand comfortingly and patted Gao Xun's shoulder, seeing the long-lost pain in his eyes, he couldn't help but tighten his face and sighed softly.
"I know that I will never marry a woman I truly love in my life. I just didn't expect it to come so soon. ”
While the ministers were still expressing their opinions on other matters related to the family, Gao Xun raised his lost eyes and looked at Gao Heng, although there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, his eyes were full of helplessness and bitterness.
After a long silence, Fang slowly spoke.
"Third brother, sometimes, I really envy you. ”
