Thirty-seven: Behind
The next day, the crown prince personally argued, and earnestly admitted that he did not know people clearly and that his majesty was not strict, which led to the scum of the subordinate officials of the East Palace who used his name to collect money everywhere, and after his investigation, he found that Chen Dezhong was far more than just receiving the silver from Yang Yunyong, the governor of Jiangxi, and many officials who came to Beijing and wanted to go to the East Palace, all of whom gave him a large amount of silver to go to the door.

Emperor Jianzhang's anger that had been accumulated for several days was finally completely vented, he called his son to the study, and slammed all the twists and turns he received these days on his face, stared at him coldly for a while, and asked in a gloomy tone: "He has collected money for so many years under your nose, and you haven't noticed anything wrong?!" ”
The crown prince hung his head, his face was obviously panicked, and he hurriedly shook his head: "I have never asked for anything, and Lord Yang has never told me anything to help......
Emperor Jianzhang put his head aside, for so many years, the prince has always been sick and weak and lenient, almost never out of any basket, is a reassuring son and prince, but Emperor Jianzhang can no longer trust him as before----- Yangzhou fraud case is still vivid, that is, from the beginning of the Yangzhou incident, he was surprised that this son is not as open-minded and lenient as he imagined, he has a dead hand to the two younger brothers, and he did not hesitate to push his younger brother to the cusp, King Gong is still his younger brother, speaking of King Gong, Emperor Jianzhang is a little awkward in his heart, the youngest son can be good at writing and martial arts and witty and decisive, among these sons is the most like himself, but since the separation, except for the first three years he has seen his son once, and now it has been nine years since I saw him, although the prince also has rewards along with his rewards during the New Year's holidays, but those things are careless at first glance. He frowned, feeling that his son was strange everywhere, not only did he have no affection for King Gong's younger brother, but he also had no affection for his son......
He thought of his competitive and obedient grandson, and his heart was a little sour, he was not as favored as the king of Thailand in front of his father in the past...... The prince coughed violently, he came back to his senses, and looked at his son's breathless appearance and a little soft-hearted----- in the end, it was his own son, he didn't have many sons in total, not to mention that the prince was still his sister-in-law, and it was this son who suffered the most with him at the beginning...... These chaotic thoughts in his mind came to his heart, and then he thought about the first time in so many years when he was in the Qingning Palace, and Princess Rongcheng's plea, and felt that it was not interesting to delve deeper----- if the prince really colluded with Yang Yunyong to accept Yang Yunyong's silver to help him cover up, as his shield, then as the emperor, can he let it go gently? And if the prince was really deceived by the people below, it hurt the relationship between father and son...... He waved his hand a little tiredly: "Your majesty is not strict enough to make such a mistake, go back and reflect on it, and write a letter to invite the guilty folder." ”
The prince was honestly frightened, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart----- Fu Youde bet right, what he said was that there was a passable reason on the face, plus there was a queen mother and Princess Rongcheng in the harem to help intercede, and Emperor Jianzhang still couldn't kill him.
Emperor Jianzhang waved his hand to send the prince away, and when the prince walked to the door, he suddenly shouted to stop him, looked at him with a complicated expression for a long time, and then said: "I said a word to you before, and I don't know if you still remember it." ”
The prince stood with his hands down and listened respectfully.
Emperor Jianzhang said: "I once told you that ten fingers are still long and short, although I am a father, I can't guarantee that all ten fingers will be treated equally, but you should know that every finger I want to preserve." ”
The prince's heart froze, and he didn't know what Emperor Jianzhang meant, so he had to agree in fear: "The sons and ministers all remember ......"
Emperor Jianzhang nodded: "It's good for you to remember, you have done many wrong things in the past, and you will change them from now on." Your mother's unintentional mistake back then, so that you still hold a grudge, you push others with yourself, you might as well think about Wei Zhao......"
The prince only felt that the hairs stood up from his arms one by one, and his whole body was numb, and he stood in place and looked at Emperor Jianzhang, not knowing where to start to justify. He thought that he had hidden his resentment against the queen well over the years, and he had a good reason for being indifferent to the crown princess and Zhou Weizhao, but now, his father spread things out in front of him unabashedly, he only felt creepy, and it was too disturbing to know how much secret the other party knew, and he was so nervous that he even began to sweat on his forehead.
Emperor Jianzhang saw him stunned in place, so he sighed: "Your mother told me that you were still young and it was inevitable that you would be frightened. But your mother was not very old at that time, and at that time, your brother was just born, and he was a baby in his arms, so she naturally subconsciously held him in his arms first......"
The prince was a little dazed, and at the same time couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, it turned out that these words were said by the queen and Emperor Jianzhang, he thought about it a little, and he understood why the queen said these words to Emperor Jianzhang----- she was using bitter tricks, wanting Emperor Jianzhang to let him go, but he was not grateful to the queen for her maintenance----- in addition to wanting to get out safely, the queen's words, clearly had the intention of sympathizing with Bo for Zhou Wei Zhaobo, he thought about it randomly, but the expression on his face was extremely sincere, This is the expression he is used to, and it is not difficult to do it at all: "What my father taught me is that the queen mother talked to me a few days ago...... I've figured it out. ”
Emperor Jianzhang didn't speak, and only nodded after a long time, waved him and told him to go.
Princess Rongcheng was a little uneasy, until she heard Xie Siyi come in and say that the prince had come out of the imperial study, she breathed a sigh of relief and grabbed the queen's arm: "This time is really dangerous......
Princess Rongcheng has a grudge against the prince in her heart, she is so greedy, but she can't keep up, and she secretly collects other people's money from her own secrets, causing everyone to be affected.
Queen Lu sneered, her eyebrows were almost wrinkled, if it weren't for Fu Youde who handed in the news in time, informing them that they had already said that they would push Chen Dezhong out as a substitute for the dead ghost, they would still be in the dark.
Like Fu Youde, she has been very disappointed in the prince, as the prince, he is already above 10,000 people under one person, and his son is now deeply liked by Emperor Jianzhang, and his mother is still in front of the queen, as long as he doesn't make mistakes, it is already a great thing, but he is not satisfied, but he wants to stretch out his hand everywhere.
