Chapter 685: This Can't Be Done
Zhou Tingyu, who was sitting in the carriage and returning home, covered his eyelids tiredly. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
When he returned to the mansion and the carriage stopped, Zhou Tingyu put down his hand in Qingfan's shout.
Zhou Tingyu got out of the carriage and stood motionless at the gate of the mansion.
"Your Highness?"
Looking at Qing Fan's somewhat worried gaze and the strange eyes of the concierge, Zhou Tingyu took a step.
At night, when lying in Zhou Tingyu's arms, Shu Yanhua hugged him and said softly: "You have something on your mind." ”
After waiting for a while, she didn't see a response from the people around her, she raised her head and glanced at it, and finally simply sat up, "You were a little absent-minded when you played with Xiao Deyin today, but what happened?" ”
Zhou Tingyu also sat up, looked straight at Shu Yanhua, and his voice was a little difficult, "Kurban recruited today." ”
Shu Yanhua was puzzled, "This is a good thing, haven't you been looking forward to his recruitment?" ”
"But the person he recruited was the eldest brother of the prince."
Zhou Tingyu's mouth was bitter, full of bitterness.
"Shhhh
Shu Yanhua gasped and exclaimed, thinking that there was Xiao Deyin's cradle next to the big bed, she covered her mouth with both hands, lowered her voice, and her eyes were full of disbelief.
"Big Brother Prince?"
Immediately afterwards, Shu Yanhua asserted: "This is impossible! ”
Zhou Tingyu smiled bitterly.
"Do you believe Kurban?" Shu Yanhua looked at him suspiciously.
Zhou Tingyu sighed, "Even you don't believe it, how can I believe this kind of nonsense?" ”
Shu Yanhua took a breath and patted her chest gently, "That's good, it's good if you don't believe it." ”
After that, she raised her eyebrows again, "This thief is really hateful, framing the eldest brother of the prince, and also dividing the relationship between you and the eldest brother of the prince." ”
"Yes, I don't believe that the eldest brother of the crown prince would do such a thing, and I also think that in addition to framing the eldest brother of the prince and making the eldest brother of the prince bear the charge, Kurban's move also has the intention of dividing our brotherly feelings."
Zhou Tingyu wiped his face, "The difficulty is that it's useless for me to believe it, it's useless for you to believe it, it depends on whether the father believes it or not, and whether the courtiers believe it or not." ”
Shu Yanhua was speechless for a while, and after a long while, she said with difficulty: "Father, he... Suspicious of the eldest brother of the prince? ”
Throughout the ages, it is common for an emperor who is still young and strong to be suspicious of the crown prince, not to mention that the prince is still very good and has won the support of many courtiers.
Zhou Tingyu thought about it and was summoned into the palace by his father a few days ago to discuss the affairs of Fanbang, his father and the eldest brother of the prince had a good discussion, and the father and the eldest brother of the prince were very important, and in the end everyone else went out of the palace, and the eldest brother of the prince was left in the palace by his father to talk, and finally the eldest brother of the prince was left to stay in the palace.
"It shouldn't be, my father still trusts the eldest brother very much."
The matter of Fanbang, among the princes, except for His Royal Highness the Prince, he was called into the palace, if he hadn't just led the army to destroy the Turks, I am afraid he would not have been called into the palace by his father, and the second and third brothers did not enter the palace is the best proof.
This shows that among the princes, the most trusted person by the father is still the eldest brother of the prince.
Shu Yanhua's heart was put down, as long as the father did not suspect the eldest brother of the crown prince, so that the second prince would not be given a chance.
"Since my father will not be suspicious of the eldest brother of the crown prince, then just based on the words of the Kurban family, it is not a big problem."
Shu Yanhua pondered for a while and said slowly.
Zhou Tingyu looked at Shu Yanhua, thought about it, and asked in the end, "Hua'er, do you remember when I wrote to you to raise food?" ”
How could Shu Yanhua forget?
"Yes."
"Today, when Kurban confessed, saying that he was the eldest brother of the crown prince, he also said that the person who contacted the Turkic Khan Sulitan also promised that the defenders of our border city would not be able to fight.
If you think about the food, the moldy food..."
Shu Yanhua's heart tightened, her hands were clenched, she lowered her voice, and looked at him in disbelief, "You mean, someone betrayed the eldest brother of the prince?" ”
Zhou Tingyu smiled bitterly, "I don't know." I don't believe that the eldest brother of the prince will trap me to death, but the grain is moldy, which is exactly the same as Kurban's words. ”
Shu Yanhua was silent, stretched out her hand and held Zhou Tingyu's hand, and she didn't know what to say at this moment.
There was a silent silence between the two.
After a long while, Shu Yanhua asked, "Then what are you going to do?" ”
Zhou Tingyu lowered his eyelids, and Shu Yanhua didn't urge, waiting quietly.
Zhou Tingyu raised his head, looked straight at Shu Yanhua, and said his decision after careful consideration.
"I will tell the eldest brother about this and want to hear his opinion."
Shu Yanhua did not object, and shook his hand, "Well, it's okay to tell the eldest brother the prince about this, if someone really betrays the eldest brother, so as not to keep him in the dark." ”
After deciding, Zhou Tingyu seemed to let go of the big stone in his heart, hugged Shu Yanhua and lay down again.
"Kurban is not a way to frame him like this, what are you going to do?"
If you want to find a breakthrough from Kurban, know the people behind the scenes from him, and pry open Chen Yuanjian's mouth, this path seems to be unworkable.
"In addition to Kurban, there are two other Turkic generals who are also imprisoned in the prison." Zhou Tingyu opened his eyes and looked at the tent.
"It's General Ahong and General Gul."
Shu Yanhua accurately called out the names of the two people.
"Well, although I don't know why Kurban framed the eldest brother of the crown prince, I don't believe that even General Ahong and General Gul did the same.
Since the border city captured them, I have imprisoned them separately, and I have never given them a chance to make contact, so I don't believe that they can still be framed together!"
Zhou Tingyu gritted his teeth and said in a fierce voice.
Shu Yanhua patted his hand lightly and reassured him, "Don't worry, it will definitely come out." ”
Zhou Tingyu tightened his grip on her hand, "Well, it will definitely come out." ”
It's a response to her, and it's also a cheer for himself.
"Sleep, tomorrow I will interrogate General Ahun and General Gul."
Zhou Tingyu patted Shu Yanhua's back gently, again and again, and soon, there was a long and regular breathing in his ears.
Zhou Tingyu also slowly closed his eyes.
Early the next morning, Zhou Tingyu got up to wash, and before breakfast, the grapes hurriedly came in from outside.
"Your Highness, a father-in-law came from outside and said that you should change into court clothes and go to court."
Zhou Tingyu was stunned for a moment, and glanced at Shu Yanhua, he had asked his father for instructions before, and he would not go to court before interrogating Kurban and Chen Yuanjian.
"But what is it?"
Shu Yanhua asked as she instructed Cherry to get the court clothes.
Grape looked happy, "Yes, that father-in-law said that it was a reward for meritorious deeds!" ”
On the tenth day of the triumphant return of the class teacher, the imperial court finally checked the military merits, and it was time to reward the merits.
