Chapter 441: The Man Behind It
In terms of control of people's hearts, no one in Princess Zhaoyang can beat her. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½fo
This bureau is complicated, but in fact, there are only three parties: the king of Chu, Qin Shuxi, and the prince.
Other people, such as the crucial right Cheng Qin Changhong, the court captain Gu Jun who led the arrest to the door, and the lively catcher and others.
What they do is the most authentic and natural expression of emotions. Qin Changhong's love for his son, the grief and indignation of seeing his son tragically ravaged; Gu Jun didn't want to wade into troubled waters, he just wanted to quickly fool the past and get out of the whirlpool;
And so on, these reactions are intertwined, and they can bring the greatest trouble to the crown prince.
And this is just the beginning. Even if Emperor Qinglong can block the news in the palace, he can't block this mouth. After things slowly ferment, it is the best time to beat the water dogs.
King Qi comfortably picked up a piece of shaved Fengshui pear and put it in his mouth, enjoying the sweet fragrance spreading in his mouth, stretching a big lazy waist, and said, "Yes, Zhaoyang's plan ends here." Then, the person behind it made a move. β
Princess Zhaoyang's eyes flashed, and she waited quietly for King Qi to continue.
Just as the prince was about to get out, Chief Manager Wu came to the courtyard and summoned the three of them to the palace for questioning. Coincidentally, when they arrived, I was saying goodbye to my father and leaving the palace, so I naturally hid behind the curtain of the imperial study. β
"Imperial sister, you say, what kind of scheming is this? With such a coincidence of this timing, where did my father know about what just happened?"
Princess Zhaoyang was shocked, she didn't expect that her plan would fall into the eyes of someone with a heart. Fang Neng cooperated with her calculations so seamlessly, and he also took King Qi out.
The smile faded from her face, and she muttered, "Who is this? Thankfully, he wasn't targeting us." β
King Qi's face was calm, and he said, "I came out of the palace, and I thought about this matter repeatedly, but I didn't have a clue. Such a cautious mind can influence his father, when did such a figure appear in the court? I don't know if he is friend or foe. β
"If he is the prince's enemy, it is just to take revenge on the prince, and he has nothing to do with us. Princess Zhaoyang analyzed: "If he is doing it to help us, it will be a great thing." β
After saying that, she shook her head again and said, "No, we can't be so naΓ―ve in this matter. People on our side, I can't think of anyone who is so capable. β
King Qi agreed: "Yes, if it were our allies, we wouldn't make such a move. β
"Then, it can only be the prince's enemy. Princess Zhaoyang muttered: "The prince acts self-disciplined, and we have not been able to catch his key handle all these years. This feud seems to be extremely hidden, so I can only slowly visit this person. β
"Make sure you find this person. King Qi said firmly: "If we can convince him to become an ally, our certainty of success will increase by two percent." β
Princess Zhaoyang nodded, acting carefully and influencing her father, saying that twenty percent is a conservative estimate.
"Regardless of this man, his current behavior is not bad for us. Next, we can start moving. β

In the imperial study, Emperor Qinglong rubbed his eyebrows tiredly. The prince's performance broke his heart.
With the dignity of a dignified prince, how could he be involved in such an ugly matter? Or blasphemy against the son of an official of the imperial court. Although he ordered the news to be blocked, he also knew that the news in the palace could be blocked, and there were so many pairs of eyes watching at that time, how could it not be circulated? He's not a tyrant.
But in his heart he did not believe.
He watched the prince grow up, and taught him martial arts and literacy hand in hand, and he couldn't understand the prince's temperament anymore.
How can a person who rejects all women suddenly become manly? This is too unreasonable. But this fact was in front of him, and the crown prince could not prove his innocence, which made a trace of doubt rise in Emperor Qinglong's heart.
But what made him even more sad was not this matter, it was the prince's attitude towards King Qi.
For the first time, the crown prince clearly showed his dislike for the king in front of him.
He prefers the crown prince, but the king of Qi is also his own flesh and blood, which forces him to think about it seriously, if the prince inherits the throne, will the king of Qi and the king of Chu still have a way to live?
Let's be grounded for three months to see what happens.
Wu Zhengxiang appeared outside the imperial study, he was called to come.
After the little eunuch was cleared, he stepped into the imperial study: "The last general has seen the emperor!" This is the office of Emperor Qinglong, and he naturally met as General Yunlu.
Emperor Qinglong raised his head and said, "Get up!"
Then he glanced at Wu Guangqi, who was standing on the side. Wu Guangqi understood, and took the other little eunuchs and palace maids who were waiting to retreat, and guarded the door by himself.
"How did you find out about this?" asked Emperor Qinglong.
Wu Zhengxiang got up and arched his hand: "Back to the emperor, the rain group saw that the prince went to the Yusheng Pavilion, and sent the news to the shadow wind last night. But this was a private matter for the prince and was not reported to his subordinates. β
Emperor Qinglong nodded, and the shadow guard monitored the hundreds of officials and nobles in the court, and there were hundreds of messages every day. As long as it is judged to be harmless to the imperial court, it is an invalid message that needs to be filtered out, and it is only archived in the shadow guard for later use.
Whether the prince goes to the Yusheng Pavilion or the Ningxiang Building, it is his private matter, and the shadow guard will not report it. But like before, he invited the commander of the Gyeonggi camp to a banquet in Ningxianglou, which was a business matter, not only to report to Wu Zhengxiang, but also to Emperor Qinglong.
"However, early this morning, Qin Youcheng went to Dali Temple, asked Dali Temple to go out to catch him, and when the whole city was looking for Qin Shuxi, Ying Feng sniffed out something wrong. Because Qin Shuxi was also in the Yusheng Pavilion last night. β
Wu Zhengxiang said slowly: "I asked the wind group to dispatch, and sure enough, in the courtyard of the Xiuwen Workshop, I found the traces of the two. When the subordinates received the report, they were taken aback and hurriedly asked people to wake up the prince. Although I don't know why, this kind of thing can naturally be avoided, as long as the emperor knows. β
Emperor Qinglong nodded, he was right to deal with it like this, no matter what the facts were, avoiding making things bigger was enough to show that Ying Wei was loyal.
Wu Zhengxiang paused, and then said, "Who knows, my order has not yet arrived." Gu Tingwei had already taken Qin Youcheng and many catchers to find His Royal Highness the Prince. The subordinates had no choice but to ask Yuliu to quickly inform the saint of the matter. β
He said this impartially, stating only what he had seen. The Prince's actions are not commented upon.
Moreover, this process is indeed the movement of the shadow guard between last night and this morning. Every person in the Shadow Guard, every one of his orders, is well documented.
It's just that, in the midst of this, he hides some facts.
