Chapter Twenty-Four: Who Loses and Who Wins
The Four Princes' Mansion
The fourth princess, Zhang Shuning, knelt in the ruins, her eyebrows lowered and she couldn't see the expression on her face.
The fourth prince angrily tore off the last calligraphy and painting in the room and threw it on the ground, and then he stopped panting for a while.
Seeing that the room was quiet, the fourth princess raised her head, with a little guilt on her solemn face.
"The affairs of Yilan Courtyard are all ill-conceived by the concubines, and I thought that I would be relieved to use them, but I didn't want such a distant relationship to let the prince's mansion catch the handle, and I clenched Zhao Xingfang and asked His Highness for forgiveness."
It's good that the four princesses didn't mention it, but when they mentioned the four princes of Yilan Courtyard, their expressions couldn't help but become hideous. He kicked on the chair that had been broken, and the chair smashed into the porcelain shard, as if mocking the incompetence of the four princes.
"What a brain Zhao Rongfang! Why do you want to move Yu Yaoxue! If you move, forget it, why don't you cut the grass and eradicate the roots, but send her to Yilan Courtyard! How many people are involved in a Yilan Courtyard! Jingzhao Yin Liangcheng was also involved in Zhao Kan, the middle book order, and Zhu Ping, the long army who was inserted into the Xuanyu battalion, was directly stolen! What is Camp Xuanyu! That's the capital garrison stationed ten miles away from the capital! Hold the lifeblood of the capital! It's not easy to put your own people in, let alone climb to the position of the long army! The matter of Yilan Courtyard is so troublesome, isn't it in a hurry to push Yang Fengguo to the prince's side?! ”
"Your Highness is angry! Yang Fengguo has never participated in the dispute between the prince and the prince, and if the people of the prince's mansion take advantage of this incident to try Yang Fengguo, it will only backfire. What we need to do now is not to get angry senselessly, but to think about how to make up for it and take precautions. Your Highness, you should focus on the overall situation. The four princesses burst into tears, this matter is too fierce, once it involves the four princes, the consequences are unimaginable! The relationship must be cleared up as soon as possible!
"The big picture? How many people has been ruined by one Yilan Courtyard! Most of the businessmen who had worked so hard to buy the controlling ministers were pulled out in just a few days! Not to mention the one sent to the palace! Zhao Xingfang gritted his teeth and didn't open his mouth if he had the slightest backbone, and His Royal Highness would not end up like this! The four princes looked at the four princesses fiercely, eager to bite her and eat her.
The four princesses lowered their eyes and said nothing.
scolded Zhao Xingfang in his mouth, and the real blame was not me. You are really as selfish and affectionate as the emperor, why didn't you say it when the Yilan Courtyard was going well, and now that something happens, you will put all the blame on my head, the fourth prince, if you become the emperor, what will happen to me.
The fourth princess couldn't help but feel a little cold, but so what, she married this person, this person has ambition and skill, she can't stop or watch, she can only carefully plan step by step to help him ascend to the supreme position, only if the fourth prince wins, she can live. Otherwise, according to the ruthlessness of the prince, knowing that the four princes are ambitious, when the prince ascends the throne, they will not be able to escape a dead word.
She can't afford to lose!
Seeing that the four princesses didn't speak, the four princes seemed to realize that what they said was a bit serious, and kicked the pieces on the ground to hold back their anger and comfort: "Wanjun, I don't blame you. ”
The four princesses raised their heads when they heard this, with a smile of understanding on their faces, "Wan Jun knows that His Royal Highness is just not happy in his heart, and Wan Jun is not happy when such a thing happens, but now the top priority is to find a way to cut off all the connections between Yilan Courtyard and the Four Princes' Mansions, this matter cannot involve the Four Princes' Mansions, if not, the emperor will not be able to tolerate His Royal Highness, please make a decision as soon as possible!" ”
The four princes looked at the faces of the four princesses with deep eyes, their clenched fists trembled slightly, and finally they had to admit that what the four princesses said was right, secretly set up a hook fence to forcibly control the courtiers, and even sent people into the palace, which was suspected of peeping into the imperial power. Each of these was enough to ruin the four princes. Fortunately, the list was cautiously opened at the beginning, and Zhao Xingfang knew that it was only a part, and the rest must be destroyed as soon as possible, and none of those who had been exposed could be left!
The fourth prince closed his eyes and said weakly: "Do as you say." ”
"Yes." The four princesses got up, and Qinghe outside the door hurriedly stepped forward to help, but he didn't dare to delay for a moment, and helped the four princesses to arrange the next things.
The Four Princes' Mansion was gloomy, but the Prince's Mansion was the opposite.
"Hahaha, a small Yilan Courtyard can pull out so many big fish at once, it is really beyond the expectations of Prince Ben! Chen Yu has made a lot of contributions this time, and when I look back and wait for you to get married, my eldest brother will give you a big gift! "The smile on the prince's face has not gone down since he took over the case of Yilan Courtyard, and it seems that he can grasp the handle of the fourth prince, which really makes him very happy.
"Brother Emperor praised it falsely, a place like Yilan Courtyard has done some dirty things, how many families have been separated because of their wives, I just did this to seek justice for those families who have lost their children. I have to trouble the eldest brother to check it personally, I thank the eldest brother for those lonely children. The sixth prince said and bowed respectfully to the crown prince, his expression was very solemn.
The smile on the prince's face couldn't be contained, but he didn't say anything because he understood the personality of the sixth prince, he just put away his smile and sighed, his face was slightly heavy, "It's the eldest brother who is too aggressive, indeed, this Zhao Xingfang is so miserable and inhumane that it is not enough to die a thousand times, but I don't want my important members of the court to be so abusive!" It's hateful! Chen Yu rest assured, the eldest brother will quickly investigate this case and give an explanation to those suffering orphans and people! ”
The sixth prince smiled lightly and behaved very decently: "There is Brother Lao!" ”
The fight between the crown prince and the four princes was in full swing, but Meng Shaoguang, the conspirator, did not listen to the affairs outside the window and only knew how to sleep. She has made a loss-making business today, and she always feels very unhappy that she has been calculated.
Looking at the black square jade in his hand, Meng shook the light and rubbed his teeth darkly.
"Someone's coming!"
"The slave is here."
"What time is it?" Without a calendar or anything, it's hard to count days.
"Back to Miss, it's May 17 today."
"Find Uncle Yan."
"Yes."
The maid went down, and after a while, Meng Boyan came over in a hurry, and he was sweating all over. Seeing Meng Shaoguang lying leisurely on the rocking chair by the lake, he felt that his nerves were too nervous. As soon as he heard that Meng Shaoguang was looking for him, he thought that something big had happened, so he put down what he was doing and immediately came over.
"Uncle Yan, why are you sweating so much? Isn't it uncomfortable? Meng Shaoguang asked very innocently.
Meng Boyan moved his lips and didn't know what to say, so he had to change the topic silently: "Is there something wrong with Miss looking for me?" There was a slight awkward tension between the words.
Meng Shaoguang understood when he heard this, and laughed out loud, seeing that Meng Boyan's face was not pale, he could bear it.
"Ahem, Uncle Yan, if you find someone to go to the Six Princes' Mansion, just say that I have something to find him, a hundred thousand urgent matters."
Meng Boyan's expression immediately became serious when he heard this, and he hurried to do something, which was not much slower than when he came, which showed that the big thing in Meng Shaoguang's mouth made him attach great importance to it.
Meng Shaoguang looked at the sparkling lake and squinted, hooked his lips and said: "Fifth Chen, in our game, it is not certain who loses and who wins!" ”
