Chapter 42 The Partition Wall Has Ears

Lin Frame explained a few more words to Gong Wenmin before leaving, and glanced at Wen Yingsu with the corner of his eye when he passed by Yingsu's side. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Wen Yingsu suddenly panicked and her face was hot.

After Lin Frame left, Gong Wenmin smiled and said, "My hunch is not wrong, right?" ”

Wen Yingsu only felt that her heart was beating suddenly, not because of Gonggong Lin's glance, but because of the words he said mysteriously, and now that he heard Gong Wenmin making such a joke, her already thin-skinned face suddenly turned red, and she said softly: "I'm worried, sister, don't make fun of me anymore." ”

Gong Wenmin smiled and said, "I'm really not making fun of you. Then he lowered his voice and asked, "Would you like to hear another premonition of mine today?" ”

Wen Yingsu always felt that Gong Wenmin's words seemed to be teasing, so she pretended not to understand and asked, "What?" ”

Gong Wenmin leaned close to her left ear and whispered, "In my opinion, someone is starting to be interesting to you." ”

Wen Yingsu's face suddenly burned like fire, and she said angrily: "What nonsense is my sister talking about? ”

But my heart was beating wildly.

………….

In the Fengtian Palace, the crown prince Zhao Yuliang endured the discomfort and knelt down towards the emperor with all the ministers and shouted, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

"Flat." The emperor stretched out his hand and said loudly.

Many ministers already knew about the emperor's game with the crown prince yesterday, so they all peeked at the father and son when they went to court today, wanting to see something from their faces.

They found that the emperor was exuding a compelling majesty today, while the crown prince was as calm and indifferent as before. They also found that the emperor's gaze at the crown prince today was much sharper than before, and the prince did not seem to be affected by his gaze.

When it came time for the officials to report the situation, the emperor suddenly went against the norm and no longer let the prince express his opinions, but let him decide the matter alone.

The officials were secretly surprised, but no one dared to say anything about it in the court. They carefully observed the prince's expression, and found that the prince's expression was still the same as usual, and they couldn't help but be secretly surprised.

It is extremely rare for the prince to be so calm at a young age.

After the court, Feng Hong, the secretary of the ministry, whispered to Bai Zekui, the secretary of Dali Temple: "King Jin asked us to have a secret meeting at the painting boat next to the Fengbo Pavilion tonight. ”

Bai Zekui nodded.

The two quickly parted ways.

As soon as the unitary time arrived, Feng Hong and Bai Zekui arrived at the agreed place one after another.

After a while, Zhao Yuxun, the king of Jin, also walked in.

They hurriedly got up and saluted him.

Zhao Yuxun motioned for them to sit down.

"Right now, the emperor has severely frustrated the prince's spirit, and the next person to deal with is likely to be King Jin, I hope you will pay attention to restraining your words and deeds recently." Feng Hong said to Zhao Yuxun, the king of Jin.

Zhao Yuxun is his future son-in-law, and he naturally hopes that Zhao Yuxun is safe and sound.

Zhao Yuxun glanced at Feng Hong and said, "The emperor will guard against the crown prince and King Pei right now, but he won't guard against me, Feng Shangshu doesn't have to worry." ”

Zhao Yuxun, the king of Jin, rarely showed his political talents in front of the emperor, so the emperor only knew his attainments in painting, but nothing else.

Over the years, he has succeeded in portraying the emperor as an artistically talented man of letters who is not very interested in politics.

At this point, the imperial concubine felt relieved but also worried, for fear that he would not be valued by the emperor because of this.

But Zhao Yuxun is very good at figuring out the emperor's thoughts - in addition to not taking the initiative to perform in political affairs, he is good at performing in other aspects, so he is also deeply loved by the emperor.

Feng Hong naturally understands Zhao Yuxun's thoughts, but he always vaguely feels that the emperor actually knows Zhao Yuxun's true skills, so he will inevitably worry, but sometimes he is full of hope that his feelings are true - he hopes that Zhao Yuxun, the king of Jin, will be liked and valued by the emperor because of his political talent.

"That being said, knowing that a son is better than a father, it is better for His Royal Highness to be careful." Feng Hong said.

Zhao Yuxun knew that he was doing it for his own good, so he nodded solemnly.

"During this time, the emperor may test you, and you should also learn from the prince and put away your edge appropriately in front of the emperor, so as not to provoke him too much." Feng Hong said again.

After saying this, Feng Hong was really unwilling to show his edge for Zhao Yuxun, who deliberately did not show his edge.

"I know." Zhao Yuxun nodded.

The song turmoil was caused by him, and the chess incident on Dayantai also started from this incident, of course Zhao Yuxun didn't want to jump into the pit he dug himself.

"Yun Yiting didn't find anything out there, did he?" Zhao Yuxun turned his head and asked Bai Zekui again.

The people who handled the ballad incident were the Zuo Senate Phalanx of the General Political Department and the Taichang Temple Qing Bao Wen, and the people who later handled the destruction of the evidence and clues involved in the case were the Phalanx, and the people who assisted and ensured that all the evidence and clues involved in the case were Feng Hong, the secretary of the Ministry of Justice, and Bai Zekui, the secretary of the Dali Temple.

Bai Zekui is an expert in investigating crimes, and because of this, he is the best at destroying criminal evidence.

Although Zhao Yuxun asked the phalanx to destroy all the evidence related to this matter before the prince returned to Beijing, Zhao Yuxun, who has always been cautious, still wanted to confirm it again. I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of just in case, there can be no loophole in this matter.

"No, I've cut off and destroyed all the clues that might be found by him." Bai Zekui replied.

So, that is to say, the only people who know the truth of this matter now are the three of them, the left Senate phalanx of the General Political Division, and the Taichang Siqing Bao scriptures.

Zhao Yuxun was relieved and gave them a toast with a smile.

What they never expected was that there was a person on their roof who was listening intently.

This man is about in his early forties, with a rather iconic Chinese face, sword eyebrows and eagle eyes, and a burly body.

Looking closer, this person is Li Xi, the director of the Ministry of Rites.

Although Li Sheng is a civil official, he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, so he is very good at martial arts. Today, because there was nothing going on in the yamen, Li Sheng went to the yamen relatively early, and it happened that his wife took the children back to her parents' house to visit relatives, so she didn't want to go home so early, so she invited a few friends to come to this painting boat to drink and listen to music.

When he was halfway through drinking, Li Sheng got up because of internal urgency and went to the official room outside to relieve himself.

Unexpectedly, in that corridor, I saw Zhao Yuxun, the king of Jin, who was coming this way.

Li Shu hurriedly flashed into the corner on one side.

After Zhao Yuxun passed by the corridor beside him, he cautiously followed.

Although Li Yan said that he had a rough appearance, he acted very cautiously, and when he saw Zhao Yuxun in such a place today, he inevitably had some doubts in his heart, and he thought of the game between the emperor and the prince yesterday and the ballad that was sung outside the imperial wall not long ago, so he was even more determined to find out.

So Li Yu waited for Zhao Yuxun to enter one of the rooms, and immediately jumped out of the window next to the room, flew onto the roof, and eavesdropped on the roof of the box where they were.

He couldn't see the other people in the box. And because he didn't often deal with Feng Hong and Bai Zekui, he couldn't distinguish their voices, but he could hear their conversations clearly.

The more he pondered their conversation, the more he felt that their motives were very strange.
