Chapter 495: Suspicion?

Mrs. Cui said to the crown princess: "Niangniang has been asking His Royal Highness the crown prince about what is going on these days. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 In addition to the palace, the info courtiers also asked Erlang to inquire from the Lin family and the Zhu family of Fuxing Bofu to see if they could inquire about the situation on the emperor's side. ”

Lin Ying and Zhu Wei are the people who traveled with the emperor this time, and the Lin family is still the descendant of the emperor's favor, and the news from the emperor's side can only be inquired from these two families to inquire most clearly.

As he spoke, he told the crown princess: "But the emperor's assassination still can't be made public, otherwise something big will happen." ”

The crown princess nodded when she heard this, but her heart became uneasy.

She was now convinced that this was not a good thing for the prince, and she was even afraid that it was a pit dug for the prince.

The crown princess asked again, "How is the situation on the Lin family's side?" If something really happened to the emperor, the Lin family should not be unresponsive. ”

Mrs. Cui said: "The Lin family seems to be business as usual on the surface, but I heard that Wu Guogong also asked people to inquire in private. If he didn't deliberately pretend to confuse people, it should be that the Lin family doesn't know what the situation is on the emperor's side now. ”

Mrs. Cui sighed and said, "Let's inquire about what's going on first." Hou Ye is now fighting against the Japanese on the coast, and the courtiers have to write a letter to ask people to quickly tell Hou Ye what is going on. What if it's really ...... The family should also be prepared. ”

Mrs. Cui talked to the crown princess for a while, and then left in a hurry.

After Mrs. Cui left, the crown princess sat in the room for a while, and then called Ye Sang and instructed her: "Let people go to the outside of the prince's study and keep an eye on it, and His Royal Highness the prince will tell the palace when he comes back." ”

Ye Sang said yes, and then went out.

The crown princess felt that she was upset and irritable, and another fire in her chest tortured her so much that she couldn't be careful. She wandered back and forth in the temple for a while, and then simply found a scripture book and began to read.

And the prince went out this time and came back after three days.

As soon as he came back, he went into the study, and the crown princess didn't have time to look for him, and then the prince summoned Zhao Rin in, and the two of them stayed alone in the study to talk.

The prince frowned and said to Zhao Rin: "Lone went to Baoding Palace this time, but he never saw his father, and Lone didn't even enter the gate of the palace, so Father-in-law Wan sent Lone back in the name of his father." ”

Zhao Rin was also frowning now, and said, "In other words, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still doesn't know if the emperor was really assassinated and injured." ”

The prince shook his head.

Zhao Rin asked again: "Has His Royal Highness seen Niangniang or the three princesses and His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince?" If you can see Niangniang or a few little highnesses, maybe Niangniang will give your highness a little hint, or ask for something from the mouths of several little highnesses. ”

The prince still shook his head, his brows furrowing even more.

The prince said: "It seems that this time, someone is trying to frame Gu, so my father should be fine, even if he is injured, it is a minor injury." ”

If his father was really seriously injured and died, he would have helped him, the crown prince, and he himself would have no chance at all.

Therefore, the purpose of the person who framed him was just to make the suspicion of assassination lead to him, the crown prince, to make the courtiers and his father suspect him, and to make his father suspicious of him.

Zhao Rin looked at the crown prince and asked again: "So what His Royal Highness the crown prince is worried about now is that the emperor refuses to see you, is it that the emperor also suspects you and has suspicion of you?" ”

The prince nodded. His father is in the prime of life, and he, the prince, will be the prince for a long time, if his father really has a dislike for him, it will be really bad for him, the prince.

The prince asked, "Lord Zhao, what do you say Gu should do now?" ”

Zhao Rin pondered, he was not sure about the emperor's trust in the crown prince.

Emperors are always suspicious, even the wisest emperors. He didn't dare to guarantee that the emperor would not suspect the crown prince, especially in this kind of situation, if the emperor was really assassinated, only His Royal Highness the crown prince would benefit.

Zhao Rin thought for a while, and finally said to the prince: "Your Highness, it's best not to do anything now, and to control all movements without moving." ”

The prince said: "Do not move to control all movements? ”

Zhao Rin said: "Yes! Zhao Rin continued: "If the emperor really has suspicion of His Highness, then no matter what His Highness does now, in the eyes of the emperor, it will deepen this suspicion, it is better to do nothing." If the emperor did not suspect His Highness, then since His Highness knew that this calculating person would not harm the emperor, why should His Highness worry about the emperor. Then His Royal Highness might as well follow the emperor's will and do whatever he should do, and there is no need to inquire about the situation around the emperor. ”

The crown prince listened and pondered, and after a while, he said: "Indeed, it is best for Gu to do nothing now, continue to supervise the country according to his father's will, and handle the affairs of the court as always, and control all movements with immobility." ”

Zhao Rin said: "Not only is it best for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince not to do anything, but His Royal Highness also has to restrain the people around him not to act rashly." As soon as the news of the emperor's assassination came out, some people who followed His Royal Highness were afraid that their hearts would fluctuate, and it would be difficult to ensure that they would not be taken advantage of. ”

The prince said: "Lone understands. ”

Zhao Rin bowed his head to the prince and said no more. For the rest, he believes that the prince can figure it out and do it well.

Zhao Rin didn't stay in Yanqing Palace for too long, and then retired and left.

The prince sat alone in the study and pondered for a while, then got up and went to the princess's bedroom.

The Cui family has gradually become impetuous, especially since the loss of power in the Xuanguo Mansion and the succession of King Hui, these days the people of the Cui family are also asking around about the situation around their father, which is not a good phenomenon.

Since you want to restrain the people around you, the first thing you should remind is the Cui family.

At this time, in King Hui's mansion, King Hui sat in the study, listening to the people around him report to him: "...... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince went to the Baoding Palace, but the emperor did not see His Royal Highness the Prince. The corners of King Hui's mouth gradually curled up in an arc.

Father, you are finally starting to become suspicious of the crown prince.

A prince who has grown up and has become powerful in the court, a prince who can gradually pose a threat to your power, can you really trust and trust him as always?

If only at this time, the people around the prince could do something more. King Hui gradually closed his eyes, and the corners of his mouth showed a perfect arc.

He and the crown prince have not yet decided the final victory, and he has not lost yet.

At this time, in the Baoding Palace on the other side, Lin Yan was sitting on the couch playing with the emperor.

Lin Yan put down a chess piece, raised her eyes to look at the emperor, and then asked, "Your Majesty, how long do you plan to hide in the palace?" ”

The emperor also put down a chess piece and said: "You must concentrate on playing chess, it is easy to lose if you are not careful." ”

After speaking, he smiled at Lin Yan, with a meaningful smile on his face.

Lin Yan glanced down at the chessboard, and she really lost all the games on the chessboard. (To be continued.) )
