Chapter 136
When the prince was brought over, he was quite calm, as if he didn't know that he had committed a crime.
"Meet my father." Entered the main hall, lifted the hem of his clothes, and knelt honestly in front of people.
Emperor Wen looked at him coldly: "You are still calm." β
"What's so uncalm, it's just a few people who died." The prince's dead pig was not afraid of boiling water, and replied dryly.
Emperor Wen's anger was aroused again because of his words. Picked up the teacup in his hand and smashed it in the face: "Bastard thing!" β
A gangong person hurriedly knelt down and shouted, "Please calm your anger." β
As a result, the upright lord looked as if nothing had happened, as if this anger was not directed at him, and he didn't even hide, but let the teacup smash into his face, and the hot tea burst out.
Then he sneered: "Father, why pretend that you really put the lives of a few untouchables on your body, the whole world is yours, what does the death of a few people affect." β
The more he heard him, the more outrageous it became, and he went to persuade people: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, you must have been disturbed by the collapse of the bridge, and it is important to solve the problem at this moment." β
A good step is placed in front of him, and the prince does not go down. He only raised his eyelids and glanced at the person: "You old dog." β
For a while, it was difficult for Father-in-law Qing to speak.
"He's an old dog, what are you!" After Emperor Wen finished shouting a word, he calmed down, this son is very cowardly on weekdays, but today he doesn't know what's wrong, as if he has lost his mind, although he is a little stupid, but he dares to speak, which is very much in line with his heart.
"You didn't do this alone, who is your person in the Ministry of Works."
The prince lowered his eyes, this time pretending to be dumb, and knelt there silently.
"I'm asking you."
The prince tugged at the corners of his mouth, trying not to smile: "Father, you have to leave two people for your sons." β
"How to make it, follow you to make money, I don't know how to do the right thing, there are a lot of crooked ways to do it."
The prince simply sat down and began to play a scoundrel at the emperor: "Father, what should you do if you want your sons, you have a treasury in your hands, and you have never lacked silver, but your sons can't do it, a large family has to be fed, and if you really don't want your son to make these evil sects crooked, why don't you give the errands of the inner treasury to your sons?" β
One is that the lion opens his mouth.
Emperor Wen laughed angrily: "Discuss the inner library with me, you are also worthy." β
After speaking, he looked at the eyes of the people, and waved his hand with hatred: "The prince has been punished for thinking about it behind closed doors, and he is not allowed to go out without my edict." β
This is a very light punishment. Gonggong Qing watched coldly from the side, knowing that the emperor had always been a little too fond of his eldest son, not to mention things on weekdays, today's matter, whoever is put on it has to lose a layer of skin, but it was the turn of the prince, but he was just said a few words without saltiness.
It's no wonder that the prince is still so virtuous.
There is a queen on it, and a group of staff behind her, but they are mud that can't be supported.
"I look at the prince, something is wrong today." Emperor Wen looked at the back of the crown prince thoughtfully.
Qing Gonggong bowed his body: "Maybe it's also because of the collapse of the bridge." β
"It's not like, if it was usual, when I encountered such a big event, I cried here with a handful of snot and tears, I don't know his virtue yet, and now I ...... The mind is not here. β
Emperor Wen thought for a while: "Send someone to keep an eye on the prince and find out what happened to him in the past two days." β
"Wow."
The crown prince is grounded, and the matter of heavy rain has to be resolved. The emperor summoned the second prince and the third prince to come and ordered them to work with the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of Households to do a good job of reinforcing the embankment.
The two princes met at the gate of the main hall, and Zhou Zhao came a little late. When he arrived, the second prince was standing under the eaves idly and watching the falling raindrops: "Yo, it's so late." β
Zhou Zhao pursed his lips and didn't look at him.
The second prince didn't see what was wrong with his younger brother, and continued to take care of himself: "My father is sympathetic to the fourth child, it rains so much, and he doesn't arrange any work for him, so it's all on the heads of the two of us." β
didn't hear Zhou Zhao answer, the second prince glanced at him: "What's the matter, you today, I ...... say"
Before he could finish speaking, Gonggong Qing came out with a smiling face full of folds: "Two highnesses, please come in." β
"Oh, Grandpa Qing." Seeing that he was interrupted by him, the second prince was not annoyed, nodded to the person, raised his feet and stepped in.
Zhou Zhao followed.
Gonggong Qing observed Zhou Zhao with an afterglow in his eyes and felt that he was ...... today Something seems to be wrong.
After entering the main hall, Emperor Wen was reviewing the folds, watching the two of them come, and then put the book in hand aside, "You have also seen the rain in the past two days, Qin Tianjian said that it will have to fall for two more days, the Ministry of Engineering measured the rise of the river, and concluded that the embankment must be reinforced, and this matter will be handed over to the two of you." Together with the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households, seize the time to get the embankment right, and there is no problem. β
"Father, don't worry." The second prince is full of ambition.
Zhou Zhao didn't speak.
"Huh? What's wrong with the third child. Emperor Wen looked at him, feeling that the third son, who had always been gentle and smiling, was unexpectedly silent today, he thought that his pale face was because he had just recovered from a serious illness, but now that he looked closely, he was a little faintly sick.
"Father," Zhou Zhao raised his eyes when he heard Emperor Wen's name, and pulled the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a ...... A not-so-gentle smile. "Erchen just heard some news, and I feel that it is necessary to report to my father, otherwise it is really ...... It's hard to sleep. β
"What news."
Zhou Zhao blinked his eyes slowly, and the movement was very slow, as if he glanced at the person very deeply: "Someone accidentally saw the prince raising a woman in a deep alley, there was nothing like this, but the woman's appearance was a little strange." When Erchen heard about it, he was very frightened. β
"What's wrong with that woman."
Zhou Zhao smiled deeply, but there was no smile in his eyes, and the expression was a little strange: "It's inconvenient for the son-in-law to say, please ask your father to send someone to bring that woman, it just so happens," he turned sideways slightly and glanced at the second prince, "The second emperor brother is also here." β
Well? What does it have to do with me? The second prince is unknown.
He glanced at Zhou Zhao, and then at the emperor. Isn't that a matter of the two of you? I'm still in high spirits preparing to build the embankment.
Emperor Wen stared at Zhou Zhao, his face did not move, but his hand gradually tightened the dragon head on the arm of the chair.
After a while, he nodded to Gonggong Qing: "Send someone to bring someone over." β
"Huh."
"Third child, you have the ability to keep an eye on people." Emperor Wen's words are unknown.
Zhou Zhao didn't seem to be able to hear it, and after finishing what he was going to say, he lowered his head again and buried his face in the shadows: "It's just that someone happened to bump into it and sued SΓΉ Erchen." (To be continued.) )
