I only heard Chen Hua continue: "Your Majesty, you don't know, the thirteenth prince didn't like geography, but for you, he was not afraid of hardship. Wechen saw that he was sincere, so he made a map that was exactly the same as the one you gave him, but Wechen used water curtain paper (this kind of paper can show translucent lines when looking at the light, as if water lines, and the waves that jump when erected are like a water curtain), which is not as noble as the white deer paper you gave him. I carefully cut out the map along the various prefectures and counties, and dyed them in color, so that the thirteen princes could play with them as puzzles, but I didn't expect the thirteen princes to remember all the names of the prefectures and counties. Your Majesty, do you remember this? ”

It turned out that this map was copied by Mrs. Chen, no wonder Prince Duan felt different. At this time, under the sunlight, the water curtain paper also emits a faint light from time to time.

"How could I forget?" Wang Chang was also a little moved. Thinking back to that summer afternoon, nine-year-old Wang Zizhao recited the situation in Fuzhou County, Yunmengguo Road, in a childish voice at his birthday banquet, and couldn't help but moisten his eyes a little. At that time, all the civil and military officials present applauded, and praised the thirteenth prince for his intelligence and unparalleled in the world, and they were very happy, and they also ordered the prince to be rewarded with a lot of food.

"Your Majesty, please also put state affairs first, and don't listen to Mrs. Chen's reminiscences anymore." The people who were kneeling on the ground kowtowed.

"Presumptuous!" Chen Hua reprimanded angrily: "You dare to blackmail Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, please allow the old minister to finish." Chen Hua said on the ground.

"That's right." Wang Chang said majestically.

"Your Majesty, the thirteenth prince can solve the problem of the seven princesses of Taibai Kingdom, not by arithmetic methods, please Your Majesty to investigate!"

Everyone's hearts chuckled, and E Guogong took the lead in reprimanding: "Bold Chen Hua! The thirteenth prince privately asked the senior actuary of the treasury to teach arithmetic methods, and the human and material evidence is conclusive, and you dare to quibble here. ”

"It's you who quibble! Is Your Majesty convicted? Has the Thirteenth Prince pleaded guilty? It is the practice of our dynasty to ask an actuary to come to the house to calculate the accounts at the coming-of-age ceremony of the thirteenth prince, and you keep saying that you want to cure the crime of the thirteenth prince, and there is no excuse for the crime you want to add?! I implore Your Majesty to search the Thirteenth Prince's Mansion and invite the Thirteenth Prince and Shang Shi to come to the scene to confront each other in person, then the truth will definitely be discovered and justice will be given to the Thirteenth Prince! Chen Huayi retorted rhetorically.

E Guogong and the others were scolded silently, Wang Chang came to his senses, yes, Wang Zizhao did not explain what method he used to solve the answer, if it is not an arithmetic method, then? None of the previous theories of sin exist, do you? "Come on, spread the word, search the Thirteenth Prince's Mansion, and be sure to find out the truth."

Prince Zhao is under house arrest in the house, and suddenly a group of Jin Wu came, and the leader was the eldest brother of Shu Guifei, the right Jin Wu Chang Fei Jie, after passing the holy decree, he couldn't help but say that the thirteen princes' mansion was turned upside down, and then he took the prince Showa and Shang to take some things back to his life.

"Your Majesty, the minister was ordered to search the Thirteenth Prince's Mansion, and found that there was nothing abnormal, but only found some things, and asked the Holy Lord to adjudicate." Fei Jie asked Prince Showa Shang to kneel down in front of Wang Chang, and ordered someone to present a box and put it in front of Wang Chang.

Wang Chang ordered someone to open it, only to see that it was covered with some scattered pieces of paper, each of which seemed to be dyed, Wang Chang grabbed a handful and walked up to Wang Zizhao and asked, "This, how do you explain it?"

Wang Zizhao spread out his hand and took the pieces of paper that Wang Chang loosened his hand and scattered it, and replied calmly: "Please ask my father and emperor to allow his sons to prove themselves." So, Wang Zizhao moved to the front of the wooden box, reached out and took out a folded object, spread it out, it turned out to be a platter, and then, Wang Zizhao pressed the pieces of paper in his hand and the pieces of paper in the box one by one into the platter.

All the ministers didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the prince's gourd, and some people couldn't hold it back, and said in a low voice: "It's a waste of time, can the piece of paper be turned into a magic weapon?"

In less than a stick of incense, I saw that Wang Zizhao had already handed Wang Chang the platter with the complete pieces of paper to Wang Chang. Wang Chang took it and took a look, and instantly understood everything.

When he turned back to the people who were on their knees, their faces were blackened and sunk like iron plates. Someone couldn't help but crane their necks to wonder what was really going on.

I only heard Wang Changlang say loudly: "Help up the thirteenth prince and Mrs. Chen." Then he put the assembled platter for the guards to hold in front of the kneeling princes and ministers - it turned out to be a map of more than 100 countries of the Seven Princesses made of four colors, and each adjacent country was completely different, this is an ordinary jigsaw puzzle!

Everyone was so frightened that they almost peed their pants on the spot, it turned out that Wang Zizhao still didn't know arithmetic, but he loved puzzles since he was a child, which is a well-known fact in the court, and it is not a secret at all, and now he just used the method of putting together a map of Yunmengguo in his childhood to splice a map sent by the seventh princess...... Thinking of this, this group of people kowtowed like pounding garlic: "Please Your Majesty to condemn the crime!" The ministers were negligent, provoked by the bad guys, and blamed the thirteen princes by mistake! Please forgive Your Majesty and the Thirteenth Prince! ”

Wang Chang said loudly: "Come here, spread my will: the thirteenth prince is of good character and intelligent, and the Ministry of Etiquette chooses another auspicious day of the zodiac to make up the coming-of-age ceremony for the thirteenth prince, and at the same time, the envoys of Xuantai Baiguo came to discuss the marriage of the seventh princess to the thirteenth prince of our dynasty. Others, etc., all the princes and ministers who have recently come to condemn the thirteen princes, civil and military officials, are fined for half a year, and they are ordered to return to their homes for self-examination, and Rong Xiu, the second director of the treasury of the government, falsely accuses the thirteen princes of being a slave and deceiving the master, and the following offenses are ordered to be strictly interrogated by the criminal department, and their people are beheaded after the autumn, and their children are deprived of second-class civil status, punished as officials and maids, and announced to the world, in order to set an example, admire! ”

"The Emperor Shengming!" Everyone thanked the emperor for his grace, and went back to their homes to discuss the long term. It's just a pity that Rong Xiu is bent on climbing the dragon and the phoenix, and he is used to seeing the wind and making the rudder, and he accidentally loses all the plates, not only did he lose his head, but also completely buried the future of his children.

Since there was no longer a reason to call himself sick and not go to court, Wang Chang returned to the Jinluan Palace the next day, and at the same time dealt with the backlog of large and small government affairs in the past few days.

"Report! Border Emergency. "On this day, the court meeting was going on as usual, and suddenly, there was an urgent document sent by Zhijinwu.

"Report! The lord of Changrong in the north was transposed, and the new lord Helian Bobo was dissatisfied with the peace treaty signed with Changrong 20 years ago, so he led 200,000 elite soldiers to the south, and at the same time, small countries such as Ghost Fang, Qiongfang, and Lu Fang raised 50,000 troops to attack our country because they had an alliance with Changrong State, and General Fei Zhong, the general of Juyong Guan, asked to send troops to support. ”

Juyong Pass is a border fortress between Yunmeng and Changrong Kingdom, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and has always been guarded by Fei Zhong, the second son of Fei Yun, the general of Fenwu. If its defensive line is breached, it will come in with a flat river, and the enemy army can drive straight into Miyun Pass near the capital. The biggest enemy of Yunmeng is Changrong State, since the founding of the country, has always pursued the policy of the Son of Heaven guarding the country, therefore, the distance between the capital and the northern border fortress is not very far, now, 250,000 thieves and Kou elite soldiers go south, then Juyong Pass is in danger, and rapid reinforcement is imperative.
