People were sighing for the Dali Temple who was being masturbed, and another eunuch came in to report that the Northern Hell Mission had resigned. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

When the ministers in the hall heard this, they all exchanged their heads and ears, and there was a buzzing and whispering sound in the hall.

The emperor also had a headache. This is a critical period in the handling of this case. If these officials of the Northern Underworld Mission are allowed to leave, it will be very inconvenient to testify against them in the future. But now, there is no conclusive evidence to prove the crimes of the Northern Underworld Mission, and the unwarranted detention will inevitably cause disputes between the two countries. When they went to the court to resign at this time, they must have heard some rumors. It's really embarrassing.

Seeing the emperor's hesitation, the officials of the Northern Underworld hurriedly said: "Your Majesty the Emperor, I was supposed to go back to the Northern Underworld after attending the princess's wedding, but recently the eldest prince has sent a message, saying that there is something important in my Northern Underworld Dynasty and I need to wait for the return of the court, so I have to come to you to ask for my resignation." ”

The emperor pondered for a moment before he said, "That's it, let's go back later." However, before you go, you can go and meet your princess. ”

These officials didn't expect the emperor to agree so quickly, and they were of course very happy to meet the princess. A group of people said goodbye to the emperor, and Hula Lala withdrew.

The second prince was anxious. Now that it is difficult to catch the handle of the prince, if these people are allowed to leave, the prince's crime may not be easy to convict. He was in a hurry, but he couldn't speak. When these people were about to leave, he hurriedly stood up and said, "Father, the case has not been cleared up, how can I let these people go?" If it is really they who disturb our country's program, won't they let the tiger return to the mountains? ”

The emperor looked at the second prince, and then looked at the Northern Underworld who had gradually drifted away, and did not answer, but the pair of sharp eyes glanced at everyone like knives, and then retreated.

The second prince stood on the hall in a daze, not understanding what the old emperor meant. If he wants to protect the prince, then why should he remove Dali Siqing? If he wasn't shielding, why did he let go of the officials of these missions so easily?

The second prince felt that his head was not enough. He turned around and searched among the courtiers for his uncle's shadow. Sure enough, he saw a person who was also standing still, as if waiting for him. This person is in his forties, with an elegant demeanor, and he is the household servant Bailisheng.

Bai Lisheng glanced at him, and then walked out of the main hall, all the way out of the palace, and waited for him in a place where he carried people.

There was not much time, and the second prince really came to find it. The two didn't talk much, and went to the Rongguo Mansion in the north of the city in a sedan chair.

The Rongguo Mansion can be regarded as a first-class rich mansion in the capital, because the old Rongguo Gong, who has been raised at home, is a famous figure in Donghuang State, who has dominated the position of prime minister for 30 years, and ranks first in the political arena of Donghuang - the former prime minister Baili Tend.

Rongguo Mansion is located on Xuanwu Street, the most prosperous street in Beicheng, occupying half of the street. At the front door of the Rongguo Mansion, there are two big stone lions squatting on the left and the right mother, and the male lion on the left steps on the hydrangea, which means that the promotion is rich and the fortune is displayed. The lioness on the right steps on the cubs, implying that the people are prosperous and the children are in groups. There are thirteen big bumps on the heads of the two stone lions, which vividly express the majesty and majesty of the lions.

The second prince and Bai Lisheng got off the sedan chair in front of the stone lion and walked into the Rongguo Mansion one after another. The subordinate who had long eyes ran over to wait, and when he saw that the second prince was coming, he turned around and ran into the inner house to report the news.

The old lady of Rongguo loves the grandson of the second prince the most, and always finds a reason to invite the second prince into the house for a reunion, which can be regarded as a consolation for the pain of missing her daughter who can't see her daughter often. Now that I heard that the second prince was coming, I shouted "heart, liver and flesh" again and again to welcome him, and pulled the second prince who was about to kneel on the ground to greet her and not let go.

The second prince grew up in the palace since he was a child, and he has a deep understanding of the family's weak royal affection, and he didn't want to get 100% sincere care in his grandfather's house, so he also likes to be close to Rong Guogong's family.

The second prince was so hot by his maternal grandmother that he was pulled to sit and talk on his soft floor, and a bunch of people came in one after another outside, including several of his uncles and aunts, as well as a few cousins and cousins, and the family chatted affectionately.

When everyone had chatted about it, the eldest uncle Baili Sheng said to his mother: "Mother, my son has already ordered someone to prepare lunch, and he will leave His Highness to eat in the mansion for a while, and then let His Highness accompany you to have a good chat." Seeing that this hour is not early, my father may have already finished practicing, so my son will take His Highness over to meet his father. ”

The old lady looked at the time, nodded with a smile, and said to the second prince: "Okay, that old thing is also worried about you, so you can go over early, so you don't have to wait for him." ”

The second prince stood up, said goodbye to his grandmother with a smile, and then followed his uncle out. The two walked through a verandah, entered a moon gate, and followed a quiet path to a small courtyard surrounded by verdant bamboo. Through the open window, the second prince saw Rong Guojustice, who had gray temples, practicing calligraphy in the window. The pen walks between the dragon and the snake, and the calm and refined bearing is also condensed between the lines with the tip of the pen.

The second prince stood by and watched carefully, until Rong Guogong stopped his pen and came forward to pay a visit. Rong Guogong smiled and said, "I know that you are almost coming, the old man has been waiting for you for the past two days." ”

The second prince and his grandfather were also not polite, and told what had happened in the court in the past few days and his own doubts.

Duke Rong Guo nodded lightly as he listened, looking pensive, until the second prince asked him, "Grandfather, what does Father and Emperor mean?" It's all at this time, can't his old man still see the prince's wolf ambitions? ”

Rong Guogong smiled slightly, so that the second prince Shao'an was not impatient. He put the brush into the pen wash and soaked it, took a handkerchief and wiped his hands, and then replied: "Your Highness thinks that the prince who has been cultivated by the Holy Lord for many years has a lot of weight in his heart?" Could it be that such a small case of collaboration with the enemy of the Ministry of Rites can shatter the pattern for many years? ”

Rong Guogong shook his head lightly and sighed. is also a father, he can understand the emperor's indisputable but difficult to give up the prince's feelings.

"How can this be a small case? Isn't the crime of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country big enough? "The second prince can't understand that if such a crime falls on ordinary officials, let alone beheading all over the house, it will be enough to destroy the nine clans.

Rong Guogong saw that the second prince still didn't understand, so he explained: "Then why do you think he wants to collaborate with the enemy and betray the country?" ”

"Of course, it's because he's worried that his crown prince position will be difficult to secure, and he wants to secretly cultivate his own power and ascend to the throne early!"

Rong Guogong asked again: "Do you think the emperor thinks the same way?" ”

"Father...... the second prince has never considered this matter from the emperor's point of view. He always thought that the prince's incompetence and ambition were obvious things, and everyone in the world should know about it. But when it came to his father, he was a little silent. Yes, if the emperor thinks the same, then the position of the crown prince may have changed long ago.
