Moon Shadow tells Qingxi that Zhao Xin said that he didn't know about this issue. Qingxi looked aware, "He can't tell me, that is, the prince of his family knows that girl!" Green shirts? Do you like green or red? She muttered a few words and chuckled, "It seems that some things are still based!" ”

"What do you mean, girl?" Moon Shadow looked at her quizzically.

Qingxi stretched out his hand lazily: "It's nothing." Moon Shadow, tomorrow morning, you go to Zhengzheng Garden to spread a word, and say that if the prince is free, I want to ask him to go to Wangchun Pavilion tomorrow night. ”

"Hmm." Moon Shadow nodded, and then asked, "Isn't the prince coming to Chaolan Yuan tonight?" ”

Qingxi waved his hand, went to bed by himself, and said lightly: "He is very busy." ”

Early the next morning, Xiao Yizheng entered the palace early to participate in the court meeting.

Today's atmosphere in the palace can be described as a mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings, just because Liu Zijing in the imperial history of the righteous impeachment of King Guang, and counted dozens of crimes when he mediated and quelled the chaos in the Miao Jiang Department, and the most dissatisfaction of the vast majority of ministers in the DPRK and China is: he knocked down the princess monument in the southwest and connived at his subordinates to requisition the property of the local people at will and without compensation.

The princess monument is set up by the local people to commemorate the princess of Chaoyun more than 100 years ago, and the above-mentioned achievements of her marriage to the southwest Miaojiang for the development of the local economy and people's livelihood. Although Princess Chaoyun has been dead for a hundred years, she has a high reputation in the local area and is deeply loved. King Guang not only destroyed the princess monument, but also released a bold statement, saying that his own merits were more than equal, and he had no monument, how could she have a monument.

"Princess Chaoyun left her hometown to marry Han and Miao for the sake of affection. Since entering the Miao Jiang Department, he has not returned to his homeland, and has dedicated his life to the local people, uniting the Miao Jiang tribe with his own strength, and tightening the relationship between him and the central court at that time. How could Prince Guang do such a reckless slanderous thing, which not only damaged the relationship between the central government and the military and people in Miaojiang, but also set an extremely bad example. Liu Zijing was filled with righteous indignation and gushed: "Since His Majesty ascended the throne, he has always emphasized the sharing of merits and the guilt of oneself. He is very modest and prudent, and he never sings praises for himself. Your Majesty still doesn't erect a monument for himself, and he doesn't allow the people to erect a monument for himself privately. What is the meaning of Prince Guang's remarks? ”

The courtiers were in a commotion, talking about each other, and their expressions were different. And Xiao Zhe's complexion has not changed at all, and he is still looking down on everyone so condescendingly, with tolerance and majesty. And Xiao Yihe frowned slightly, his eyes kept looking back and forth in the hall. Xiao Yizheng, who was standing on the side, still had a leisurely posture, fiddled with his sleeves, and stood there quietly, as if he didn't care about the development of the situation in the hall.

Liu Zijing straightened his waist and continued to be generous: "The officers under Lord Guang robbed the property of the local people. The people informed the local government that His Royal Highness not only did not cooperate with the severe punishment, but did everything possible to maintain and condone it. The Son of Heaven broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people, what is the meaning of his actions? ”

The crowd was boiling again.

"The ministers and all the colleagues of the Imperial Historical Observatory jointly implore Your Majesty to severely punish the prince of Guang with the laws and regulations of the national dynasty and the law and reason." Liu Zijing bowed deeply.

The officials of the Imperial Historical Observatory in the palace all came out to second.

The military department Shangshu walked out slowly and said, "Your Majesty, what the Imperial Historical Observatory has done still needs to be carefully checked. Prince Guang rioted in the southwest this time, and in terms of this matter, he still made a great contribution to the imperial court. Did the minister feel that he would wait for him to return to Shangdu, inquire in detail one by one, and then make a conclusion? ”

Liu Zijing said stiffly again: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks this is wrong. If merit is merit, if merit is not divided, what is the law in this world? How is this social order maintained? Of course, the prince of Guang can defend himself, but the minister is willing to use this fame as a guarantee for the previous dynasty, and the words on the imperial history platform are true, and there is no lie. ”

The people of the Yushitai seconded it again.

Xiao Zhe coughed lightly, and everyone in the hall stopped talking and looked at the emperor.

Xiao Zhe sighed: "This ninth brother of mine, he has experience in the army, has grown up in the army, and acts recklessly. This time it was excessive. ”

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is very inappropriate to define the behavior of Prince Guang as reckless." Liu Zijing spoke again, and he didn't let an inch between his words.

Xiao Zhe looked embarrassed, was silent for a moment, and asked Yang Zhi of Zhongshu Ling, "What is Zhongshuling's opinion?" ”

Yang Zhi came out and said respectfully: "The minister thinks that since the Yushitai has played, it is necessary to give appropriate handling opinions." If the prince violates the law of the country, he should have the punishment he should bear. Prince Guang is on his way back to Shangdu, and he should also be given a chance to talk about himself. ”

Xiao Zhe nodded in agreement, and was about to say something, when Jing Zhaoyin stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the minister also has a matter involving Prince Guang." ”

"Oh? What's the matter with Kyung Zhao Yin? Xiao Zhe seemed surprised.

"On the night of His Royal Highness King Heng's wedding, the palace caught fire, and everyone knew about it. Later, the steward of the royal palace reported the case, and the matter fell within the scope of Jing Zhaoyin's investigation. After several days of inquiry and evidence collection, this matter also involves Guang Wangye behind the scenes. The minister has already sold all the files to the criminal department and the official department respectively, and the matter involves the prince, and the minister has no right to close the case again. ”

"And that matter?" Xiao Zhe immediately said to Xiao Yizheng: "Liulang, do you know about this?" ”

Xiao Yizheng saluted and said: "Erchen only handed over the people involved in the mansion to the Jingzhao Yin Mansion, and did not ask about the follow-up matters. Erchen thought that Uncle Jiuwang had no reason to do this. There may be hidden secrets in this, but it is still necessary to investigate clearly, do not blame the innocent people for wrongdoing, and naturally we cannot let go of those who commit conspiracies and tricks. ”

"Hmm." Xiao Zhe nodded, and said thoughtfully: "In this matter, the Criminal Department and the Ministry of Officials should seriously review the file, and Jing Zhaoyin will fully cooperate and investigate it in detail." He paused and said to Liu Zijing: "What the Yushitai played will definitely be investigated." ”

Liu Zijing said with a straight face: "Your Majesty Mingjian." The minister thought that what was being discussed in the court today, Prince Guang would soon learn the news. In order to show justice, I also ask Your Majesty to immediately order someone to be sent to restrain the prince to return to Shangdu. ”

The military department was dissatisfied when he heard it, and said angrily: "Liu Zhongcheng, what are these words?" Are you implying that everyone in the hall will go to ventilate the news or collude with Prince Guang behind his back? Whether Prince Guang is guilty or not is still inconclusive, how can he send someone to monitor him? ”

"The minister didn't mean that." Liu Zijing said righteously: "Officials in the DPRK and China, princes and nobles, no matter who is involved in disobedience and illegal matters, they must immediately return to cooperate with the investigation." The prince is no exception. Shang Shukou's remarks just now surprised me, ventilating the news, colluding and colluding, why did Shang Shu have such an idea? ”

The head of the military department was red-faced, red-eared, and stammered.

Seeing this, everyone in Yushitai naturally supported their bosses, and they all said that they should send someone to let the prince return to Shangdu as soon as possible to cooperate with the investigation.

Xiao Zhe seemed to be in the midst of everyone's wave after wave of admonitions, and nodded very helplessly: "What Zhongqing played is very reasonable. In this way, please ask the military department to work hard. ”

When Shangshu heard that the emperor named him, his heart trembled, and he hurriedly stepped forward and respectfully waited for the order.

"You go and welcome the ninth brother back to Shangdu. Yang Aiqing, where is the ninth brother now? ”

Yang Zhi said: "At the boundary of Yuanzhou, there should be three days to arrive in Shangdu." ”

"Okay." Xiao Zhe commanded to Shangdu again: "Three days later, I will watch you accompany the ninth brother back to Shangdu safely." ”

After the dispersal of the dynasty, Xiao Yihe and Xiao Yizheng went to the Heart Cultivation Hall together. After Xiao Zhe took a break, he said to the two: "Your ninth uncle is coming back, this play has already begun, how to sing it, it's a three-point game." ”

"At present, it seems that the ministers of the DPRK and China do not dare to offend Uncle Jiu easily. Everyone is still unclear about the true attitude of the father. Xiao Yihe said seriously.

"Hehe", Xiao Zhe said with a smile: "I actually don't have my own attitude, my attitude is always the people of the world first." What to do is beneficial to the overall situation, what to do, what to do to ensure the prosperity and development of the country. ”

Xiao Yihe said respectfully: "Erchen is taught." ”

"Isn't there any movement over there in Dali Temple?" Xiao Zhe asked.

Xiao Yihe nodded.

Xiao Yizheng opened his mouth and said: "Over there in Dali Temple, my father doesn't need to worry. ”

"Did you order Ling Qingsong anything?" Xiao Zhe asked.

Xiao Yizheng did not deny it: "He is now serving in Dali Temple, and it is also his business." Erchen didn't say anything else. ”

Xiao Zhe nodded: "It's better not to let the Ling family get involved in this matter." ”

Xiao Yihe glanced at Xiao Yizheng, frowned, and just wanted to ask something, but heard Xiao Zhe cough lightly.

Both of them stepped forward and asked with concern: "Is my father in good health?" ”

Xiao Zhe waved his hand and said intermittently: "It's nothing, it's old." ”

Guo Rui hurriedly served him to drink water and soothe him.

"Alright, you also go back to your house and go your own business!" Xiao Zhe waved his hand.

The two of them left the Heart Cultivation Palace, and Xiao Yihe asked with a smile: "The sixth brother is newly married, why don't you rest for two more days?" ”

"Third brother, do you think I will stay in the palace?"

"In the past, I couldn't stay, but now it's different, the palace has a princess!"

Xiao Yizheng smiled and said, "Father, is he really okay?" Speaking of which, I am often absent from Shangdu, and when I come back this time, I always feel that he is not as good as before. ”

"In the past few years, my father's health is indeed not as good as in his prime, and he is too tired. I also asked the hospital, and they all said that it was not a big problem, but a small problem had to be slowly recuperated. Xiao Yihe patted him on the back and said: "It's time for you to help your father, now that you have a family, you shouldn't go around." ”

Xiao Yizheng sighed helplessly: "With my father and brother here, I really don't want to pay attention to it." ”

"Some responsibilities come with you." Xiao Yihe said lightly.

After Xiao Yizheng returned home, Uncle Zhong told him that it was the princess who invited him to wait for Wangchun Pavilion at night. When he heard this, he looked very puzzled. "What's so special in the house today?"

Zhongbo shook his head.

"Can the princess leave the house today?"

"Nope. But the princess's brother sent something. ”

Xiao Yizheng nodded, changed his clothes, and went to Chaolan Garden.
