Chapter 387: A Game Within a Game
There was no movement in Zhennan Wangfu at all, and it only took half a day to clean up the spies, and Liuying let people find out, she secretly asked Xuanqing to dispose of the details, and then pretended to be safe.
The eighth prince received the news, but he was a little puzzled, yesterday the princess of Zhennan was still crying and crying reluctant to let the king of Zhennan go, and now he knows that the king of Zhennan is cornered, so he cries so painfully, he is secretly proud in his heart, it seems that he is worthy of his calculation, but I didn't expect that this time, the king of Zhennan was really desperate.
"Now the main hall has only used a little means, and the Zhennan Royal Mansion can't cope with it, and it seems that it's just like that." The eighth prince said triumphantly.
The personal guard beside him said with a smile, "It is worthy of Your Highness, it seems that this time the King of Zhennan is in a catastrophe, but there are only two days, I am afraid that the King of Zhennan will not be able to overturn the case." ”
"Although that's what I said, it's hard to guarantee that things will be reversed, so it's better to be careful, the main hall now has other considerations, save the wind, you send someone down to find the workers' families again, let them beat the drums tomorrow, the main hall will make the king of Zhennan have nowhere to escape!"
Bangfeng wiped his cold sweat, and secretly thought in his heart, it seems that the eighth prince is indeed unable to get along with the king of Zhennan, and the sky of this court is only afraid that it is about to change.
Prison
In the dead of night, the lock of the prison suddenly loosened, and a black-clothed figure appeared in the prison, he respectfully walked to the prison where the king of Zhennan was, and knelt down towards the handsome man who closed his eyes and recuperated.
"Lord Wang, things have been arranged."
King Zhennan slowly opened his eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "Very good, things are done well." ”
"What is the prince going to do next?" Xuan Ling asked worriedly, "Regarding what the Eighth Prince did, his subordinates have been investigating for a long time, and now they have a lot of evidence in their hands, does the prince plan to do it in the near future?" ”
King Zhennan shook his head, "Xuan Ling, I need to leave the prison for some time, tomorrow night at this hour, you send someone to the prison to replace this king in the prison, and then leave after the matter is done." ”
"Yes, Lord Wang, my subordinates immediately sent someone down to arrange, and a banquet was arranged in the Queen Mother's palace two days later, and my subordinates always felt that it was a Hongmen banquet, but the princess couldn't shirk it, Lord Wang, what do you say?" Xuan Ling raised his eyes and said worriedly.
"Let Jia Luo stay with you, remember not to let the Queen Mother and the princess be alone, if the Queen Mother is too strong, when the time comes, let Shuqin go to the Palace of Nourishing Heart to see Concubine Xiao, with her forward, Liuying will be fine, but this matter, we must be cautious, we all know that the Queen Mother is uneasy and kind, but this Hongmen banquet should be handled carefully."
Xuan Ling understood what King Zhennan meant, so he still understood this matter in his heart, he nodded, "My subordinates understand what to do, and please rest assured." ”
"It's late at night, let's go back."
Xuan Ling bowed and then left, King Zhennan looked at the moonlight by the window, and he said in a deep voice, "Liuying, wait for this king for a while, and everything will definitely be safe." ”
There is no eyebrow in the court about the king of Zhennan, I heard that the king of Pingning entered the palace overnight to ask to see the emperor, in order to be the king of Zhennan, originally everyone thought that the nine princes were a lesson from the past, who knew that the emperor actually told everyone in public that he had promised the king of Pingning to postpone the time of the proof.
The ministers in the court, led by the eighth prince, were naturally dissatisfied, and Prime Minister Duan quickly raised his objections, he raised his eyes to look at the emperor, and said in a deep voice, "Back to the emperor, this matter is to be discussed, how can it be postponed when it is clearly said, the king of Zhennan can't come up with evidence to prove his innocence, is it that the emperor is still unclear about this matter?" ”
"Whether I know about this matter or not, since some things have happened, I have nothing to say, but King Zhennan has made great contributions to the imperial court in the past, and with this, I should give him a little time now, you don't need to continue, I already have a plan for this matter."
Prime Minister Duan and the waiter of the Ministry of Rites glanced at each other, the two of them were thoughtful, no one spoke, most of them had their own concerns in their hearts, and they were naturally more puzzled about this matter, obviously the King of Zhennan had been pushed into the abyss, but there were still people who were willing to take the risk to help, but they underestimated the influence of the King of Zhennan on everyone.
"Even if it is the emperor's decision, I can't say it, but the emperor, the law of our Yan Kingdom has a precedent, and the king of Zhennan himself has already said that if he can't prove his innocence with evidence, what is happening now is not the end! The identity of the king of Zhennan will also be deprived by the emperor at that time, after all, the lives of the people are also important, and the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people. ”
The emperor was forced to ask, but he was not angry, he said in a deep voice, "I know that if this matter cannot be investigated by the people of the king of Zhennan, I will not give him another chance, and I will deprive him of all his rights. ”
The ministers didn't speak, they all understood that now the goal has been achieved, so there is no need to be aggressive in front of some things!
"The emperor is wise, long live my emperor, long live, long live."
The early dynasty dispersed, the queen mother sent people to start preparing for tomorrow's banquet, she specially invited the emperor and the princes, but the emperor had something to do, did not come, only a few princes present.
When the Queen Mother heard the news about King Zhennan, she was very happy, "Now King Zhennan can no longer block the way of the mourning family, and for the mourning family, it is now a relief." ”
"Congratulations to Niangniang for getting what she wanted, this time the princess of Zhennan is also going to enter the palace, and the slave is ready!"
Aunt Shuangxue said with her eyebrows fluttering, she had always understood what the Queen Mother meant, this banquet was not for ordinary things, if it wasn't for Princess Zhennan, there would be no need to go through such a big effort.
"The king of Zhennan was finally planted, the mourning family will never let go of this opportunity, remember, let people do it in two days, the king of Zhennan entered the prison, and now he still wants to come out alive, hum, the mourning family will not agree!"
The Queen Mother smiled wildly, the position of the crown prince has long been in the bag, but now it is just to clear the obstacles, the Queen Mother has always been unable to tolerate people, especially the face of the Liuying, which made her jealous to the point of madness.
"The slave and maid will definitely arrange it properly, and they will not worry the mother."
The Queen Mother said coldly, "Very good, since things have been arranged, the drama at that time depends on how they sing, the mourning family now has their own considerations, and will definitely not give anyone a chance." ”
At the banquet two days later, the warbler wore a very plain, pale green ruffled long skirt, embroidered with acacia flowers, although it was a little elegant, but it was not dignified.
