The four princes didn't know what to do, but they still took it in their hands and looked at it carefully. The knife seems to be a little old, but it is very heavy, and you know that it is good as soon as you pick it up, and the blade is a little tired in some places, but the sharp edge is still sharp, and the handle is also very easy to hold. It's just that this knife is an ordinary knife no matter how you look at it, what is there to see?

Meng Shaoguang looked at the confusion of the four princes in his eyes and reminded: "Aren't the four princes curious about where this knife came from?" ”

When the fourth prince heard this, he put his eyes on the root of the blade, and saw that there were some fine words engraved there, as well as the stamp of the young eunuch of the Dasheng Dynasty, although it was a little blurry, but the date of the day was still faintly visible.

"Nine years of Da Shengjing?" The fourth prince came back at this time.

"This is the weapon that Ruan Xingtian made for the Nan'an Army seven years ago?" This matter was handled by the prince back then, and I don't know where he got the rumor and cracked this shocking fraud case in one fell swoop. The emperor favored the crown prince at that time, praising him for being a general at a young age. I couldn't spoil him in those years. Isn't there anything going on here?

At the beginning, this case only involved the young eunuch, and the young eunuch, as he thought before, would not be of the slightest help to seize the heir, so he did not investigate it at that time. Now that I hear Meng Shaoguang mention it, I guess what is wrong with it.

Meng Shaoguang was noncommittal, rubbing his fingers against the jade pendant on his waist and said lightly: "Back then, the military situation in Hebei was urgent, and there was a shortage of weapons, but the court came with the news that the Ruan family's weapons were fake, but it didn't take half a month, but someone secretly sent tens of thousands of weapons to Hebei, and the swords, guns, swords, and halberds that should have been blunt weapons have become sharp weapons that can cut people's lives with a knife, don't the four princes think there is anything in this?" ”

"I heard that it was the prince who discovered the case, and it was also the prince who presided over the trial, and he put the evidence in front of the emperor one by one, and the young government supervisor Ruan Xingtian had no grievances with him, let alone hindered his position as the prince, why did the prince target him so much? What role the crown prince played in this matter, aren't the four princes curious at all. ”

The fourth prince looked at Meng Shaoguang with far-reaching eyes, wanting to see something from her face. However, Meng Shaoguang's psychological quality is not good, and the smile on his face is meaningful, and there is nothing else.

"What the young general said is reasonable, but this matter is very old, and now it is inevitable to make a big deal when it is investigated, if you can find out something useful, it will be fine, if not, it will make your father unhappy." This kind of thankless thing is obviously something that the four princes don't want to do.

As if he didn't see the careful thoughts of the four princes, Meng Shaoguang twisted his face to stagger the searching gaze of the four princes, hooked the corners of his lips and said lightly: "The crown prince's reputation is now skyrocketing, and the courtiers respect him as the next emperor, far exceeding the attitude towards the prince of the first dynasty." The emperor saw it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart, and the four princes thought that the emperor's eyes could accommodate the next one who sat in the position of the prince but enjoyed the treatment that the emperor deserved? Things must be reversed by the moon, and there is no need for me to teach the four princes such a simple truth. ”

Meng Shaoguang insisted on calling him the Four Princes instead of His Royal Highness, that is, he wanted to put pressure on him in this matter again, and did not do his best to do this well, he could always only be the Four Princes in her eyes, not His Royal Highness who she wanted to do her best to assist. Or for the four princes, the affairs of the Ruan family are a test for the four princes, and the result is related to Meng Shaoguang's choice and the belonging of King An's mansion.

The fourth prince pondered Meng Shaoguang's words and was silent.

"Besides, doesn't the fourth prince want to know, why did the crown prince target Ruan Xingtian, who couldn't fight him? And if he got so many shoddy weapons from a whim, and why were those weapons engraved with the stamp of the young eunuch? "Having said that, no matter how stupid the four princes are, they should understand.

The fourth prince was shocked in his heart and asked: "That batch of weapons was originally for the Nan'an army, and the young general means that the prince had premeditated the creation of fake weapons, the purpose of which was to let the Nan'an army take these weapons to fight, so as to ......" Needless to say, the two of them also understood.

Seeing that Meng Shaoguang was silent, the four princes had an epiphany. No wonder Meng Shaoguang had to bring this matter out, it turned out that at that time, the prince was going to make a stumbling block for the Anwang Mansion, and he still took the lives of the soldiers of the Nan'an Army and the safety of the Dasheng Dynasty. It's just one thing he still doesn't quite understand.

"Since everything has been arranged, why did the prince poke this matter out in the end? also ruthlessly killed the Ruan family's mouth, isn't Ruan Xingtian doing things for the prince? ”

Meng Shaoguang raised his eyes and snorted coldly, took a sip of the tea that was already cold, and sneered: "The fourth prince thinks that who sent the batch of weapons sent to Hebei to solve the urgent needs of the Nan'an Army. ”

The fourth prince paused, thinking about the power of it, and suddenly his back was wet. The prince is really bold! Relying on the favor of his father, he actually played tricks under his father's nose! Although the young eunuch is only from the position of a third-rank official, he holds the top priority such as industrial weapon manufacturing, and the prince is so ignorant of the importance of his own selfish interests, which is really ...... It's so ruthless!

The fourth prince calmed down and couldn't help asking, "How did the young general learn about this?" "How did you know about the matter of the capital in the Anwang Mansion in Hebei, not to mention the old case seven years ago.

Meng Shaoguang looked at the four princes coldly, and the word 'stupid' in his eyes was clearly revealed.

The fourth prince was a little embarrassed, he was too anxious to hide his inner gaffe before he blurted out, and regretted it after asking. Since Ruan Xingtian can send weapons, he naturally won't just send weapons. Meng Shaoguang knew so clearly, obviously from the evidence left by Ruan Xingtian.

Meng Shaoguang didn't care about anything else, he exhaled a breath and said coldly, "The prince was only seventeen at the time, and even the emperor didn't dare to do anything to the Nan'an army during the war in the north of the country. The more than the other, the ambition of the wolf, these don't need to be reminded by General Ben. ”

The fourth prince smelled the coldness in Meng Shaoguang's words, as well as the self-proclaimed sentence of this general, and knew that his performance was bad, and he didn't say much, just listened quietly.

Meng Shaoguang saw that the fourth prince had a good attitude, and his tone was not so cold, "I still say the same thing, the moon is full and the moon is lost, the prince is now very prosperous, if you don't go further, you can only retreat." You know better than me what the emperor is, and if you covet his things, even if you are the crown prince, you can't. ”

Hearing this, the fourth prince stood up, bowed to Meng Shaoguang, and said solemnly: "Thank you for the advice of the young general." ”

Meng Shaoguang sat still, picked up the teapot and poured tea by himself, "It's late, the fourth prince should go back." ”

The four princes frowned, turned around and left neatly.

He accepted Meng Shaoguang's affection, and he can be regarded as angry for An Wangfu, and this matter is done for both him and Meng Shaoguang. And Meng Shaoguang will naturally do his best to plan for him, after all, the help of King An's Mansion is one of them, and Meng Shaoguang's wisdom makes him have to admire. Today, he has already made up his mind that he will inevitably tie Meng Shaoguang to his ship. If someone like Meng Shaoguang is an enemy, it is too dangerous!
