All kinds of things are going well, Li Xian's mood is very good, and he is extra relieved to sleep, and he is smiling in his dreams, of course, Li Xian is not the only one who has a good mood, Li Zhen, the king of Yue, is also in a very comfortable mood, although he has been busy all afternoon, when he returns to the house, it is already completely dark, but Li Zhen doesn't care at all, he got out of the carriage, and he can't even take care of dinner, so Shi Shiran went to the study, although his face was on the floor as usual, but his steps were obviously lighter than before. There is a kind of euphoria of floating away, if it weren't for the image problem, Li Zhen would really want to hum a small song.

Li Zhen is very excited, he also has enough reasons to be excited, originally, it is a pleasant thing to watch a fierce battle in the court in vain, and he can also get benefits from it, it is an unexpected joy, not to mention that this benefit is really not small, Li Zhen is not excited about freedom, and his demeanor without a gaffe is already considered to be a qi cultivation kung fu at home.

"See Father!"

As soon as they saw Li Zhen marching into the study, Li Chong and the others, who had been waiting for a long time, hurriedly got up and said hello, but Li Zhen didn't pay attention to it, but walked quickly to a middle-aged scribe who was bowing down, smiled with relief, stretched out his hand and raised it weakly, and greeted him very politely: "Shoude, when did you arrive?" ”

"Back to the prince's words, the son-in-law arrived before noon, and it happened that the prince entered the palace to discuss matters, and the son-in-law did not dare to disturb, so he waited here for the triumphant return of the prince."

This middle-aged scribe surnamed Pei, a single name of government, the word Shoude, born in the horse Pei, and Pei Xingjian, Pei Yan and other people of the same clan, married Li Zhen's eldest daughter Liangxiang County Lord the year before last, was originally a subordinate official of the Yue Wangfu, and later released Xiangzhou Sima, since Li Zhen was ordered to participate in the governor's affairs, he tried to transfer it to the court, and proposed to be a member of the criminal department Wailang (from the five products), is Li Zhen's most trusted confidant and think tank, resourceful and decisive, especially in government affairs.

"Triumph? Why did Shoude say this? ”

Hearing Pei Shoude's words, he broke the mystery of this court discussion, Li Zhen couldn't help but be stunned, and then asked in confusion.

"The prince already knows everything, so why do you need your son-in-law to talk nonsense?"

Pei Shoude didn't explain, but asked with a smile.

"Oh? Hahaha...... Shoude is really capable, Lone today is indeed a slight gain, but the blessings and misfortunes are still difficult to reverse, Shoude came just right, and for Lone to analyze one or two, today's court discussion should start with the 'Gongling' incident...... "Li Zhen has always been convinced of Pei Shoude's ability, and he will not hide anything from him, so he walked to the top and sat down with a laugh, and described in detail the reasons for today's court meeting with a relaxed face, and at the end, he asked with a smile: "It seems that Lone is so disposed of without impropriety?" ”

"Gao Hesheng is just a scapegoat, sooner or later it will be difficult to escape death, even so, there is nothing wrong with his death in exchange for a position in the Ministry of Industry, this case can be closed, but it can be regarded as two pennies, even if others have doubts, but there is no empirical evidence to turn over, this article does not need to be considered too much, however, the son-in-law has a doubt that is difficult to solve!"

Long before Li Zhen returned, Pei Shoude had already learned the origin of the "Gongling" case from Li Chong and others, and he had already speculated about the means that Li Zhen might take, which was not much different from reality, so no matter how fanciful Li Zhen said, Pei Shoude did not feel anything unusual, let alone as optimistic as Li Zhen, but frowned slightly.

"Oh? Is there anything wrong? Lone can't see it, keep morality and talk to Lonely. ”

Seeing that Pei Shoude's expression was a little wrong, Li Zhen's heart couldn't help but sink, her eyebrows raised, and she hurriedly asked.

"It's not very inappropriate, it's just that the son-in-law can't see through the king's actions, well, according to what Brother Chong said, the prince just squeezed the king a few days ago, and the so-called pre-court competition is really too obvious. Gongling's case is strange, if the son-in-law is not bad, it should be from the handwriting of the King of England, even if it is not, it is inseparable from it, but it has only been two days, the King of England actually helped the prince get the power of the court regardless of the previous suspicions, isn't it a strange thing, the so-called abnormal thing must be a demon, unless it is ......" Pei Shoude stroked his long beard, while calmly analyzing, as he spoke, suddenly as if he remembered something very strange, his eyes suddenly lit up, but the words stopped, and he didn't see him speak again for a long time.

"Huh?"

"Big brother-in-law, you said, there is no land to die in a hurry, isn't it?"

"Big brother-in-law, you are ......"

……

Pei Shoude was stunned for a moment, but Li Chong and a few other little ones were all in a hurry, this was listening to it very well, and there was no follow-up like this, and the brothers didn't care about their father and the king sitting on the top, so they roared and roared.

"Humph!"

Li Chong and the others were in a hurry, and Li Zhen was actually even more anxious, but as soon as he saw the sons making a fuss, his face immediately pulled down, and he snorted coldly from his nostrils, and instantly suppressed all the noises of the princes.

"Lord Wang Haihan, the son-in-law thought about it a little more deeply, but he was distracted."

As soon as Li Zhen's cold snort came out, it was not only Li Chong and the others who were shouting in a hurry that they were suppressed, but even Pei Shoude, who was thinking deeply, was awakened, and when he saw that Li Zhen's expression was wrong, he hurriedly bowed down and apologized.

"It's okay, do you have any ideas?"

Li Zhen was anxious to know what Pei Shoude had seen, and he wouldn't mind Pei Shoude's gaffe, so he raised his hand with a smile and hurriedly asked.

"Back to the prince's words, I have some ideas, hmm, does the prince know the allusion of Shen Sheng's heavy ears?"

Seeing that Li Zhen was also anxious, Pei Shoude didn't dare to hide it anymore, but he didn't give an answer directly, but asked with a smile.

"Shen Sheng's heavy ears? Hmm, you mean the King wants to go? ”

Li Zhen is also a person who has read history books, and he will not even know such a famous allusion, but as soon as he heard it, he immediately understood what Pei Shoude was going to say, but he was not sure that this would be the case, because as a child of the heavenly family, Li Zhen knew very well that once the prince of the line went to the office, it was basically difficult to return to the court, in other words, after becoming an official, he would be considered to have completely lost his power in the court.

Pei Shoude slapped his palm, shook his head and sighed with emotion: "Yes, only such an explanation can make sense, the prince should know what kind of person the palace is, he can do the first year of junior high school, how can he let go of the fifteenth, His Royal Highness is going to pass on the root cause, heh, it's really calculating!" ”

"Well, that's right, in your opinion, how can you be alone?"

Although Li Zhenren is a perennial official abroad, because of Concubine Yan De, he still knows a lot about the affairs in the palace, and he knows how ruthless the Empress Wu is, and he will not doubt Pei Shoude's conclusion, but he is not sure what attitude he should take.

"The king of England is a fierce tiger, if he gets the wind and clouds, I am afraid that it will be difficult to control the people in the world, even so, when the court is ready, the prince can suggest that he go to the officials of Xiangzhou."

Pei Shoude smiled strangely and gave a somewhat inexplicable answer.

"Hmm, Sangju? Hmm, Lone understands, okay, this matter is decided, hahaha, good, what an official Xiangzhou! ”

As soon as Pei Shoude's suggestion came out, Li Zhen was stunned - Xiangzhou is the place where Li Zhen has been an official for a long time, and it is also where his foundation is, and it is obviously a little wrong to get Li Xian there, but Li Zhen was not stunned for long, and in a blink of an eye, he had already figured out the key to it, and couldn't help laughing......

The night was a little deep, but Gao Hesheng, who was huddled in a corner of the cell, did not feel half sleepy, staring at the night sky outside the narrow iron window, his eyes were extremely unfocused, and he was so lost in his soul, how could he still have the demeanor of the first person in the inner chamberlain, if it were not for the breathing, his chest rose and fell slightly, it would be a deadly zombie.

"Squeak ......"

A piercing sound of the door shaft turning suddenly sounded in the quiet night, Gao Hesheng was excited, and instantly woke up from his confusion, staring at the thick wooden door that slowly pushed inward in horror, his body trembled like a sifting chaff, even if he was ready to be killed since he fell into the inner court prison, but when the time really came, Gao Hesheng was still afraid.

"Niangniang, ah, Niangniang, old slave, old slave, Niangniang......"

As soon as the door opened, several small eunuchs holding lanterns surrounded the Empress Wu and walked in from outside the door.

"Enough!"

Empress Wu seemed to feel a little guilty about Gao Hesheng, so she let him cry for a while, it can be seen that this guy has never stopped crying, and his heart can't help but get annoyed, and he broke his throat coldly, and when he landed, Gao Hesheng was so frightened that he fell to the ground, and he didn't even dare to raise his head.

"Er's grievances are well known in this palace, but the situation is like this, this palace is also unable to save Er, and it is good to go by yourself, your two nephews Gao Pang and Gao Cheng will be taken care of by this palace, and he will not be indispensable for his wealth, if not, then Hugh blames this palace for being ruthless!" Empress Wu glanced at Gao Hesheng who was trembling indifferently, said a word unhurriedly, and then waved his hand, and several small eunuchs on the side of him rushed forward, took out a thick stack of papers, and forced Gao Hesheng to sign on it.

"Niangniang spare your life, Niangniang spare your life, the old slave has always been loyal, and ask Niangniang to save the old slave's life, the old slave is wronged......"

Gao Hesheng is a person who is afraid of death, and at this time, facing the threshold of life and death, no matter what the martial queen promised, he wailed regardless of it.

"Hmm!"

Seeing that Gao Hesheng didn't know how to lift, Empress Wu's face immediately pulled down, snorted coldly, and raised his hand, the few little eunuchs who accompanied him did not dare to slack off, and forcibly pulled Gao Hesheng's hand and dipped it in cinnabar, and pressed it on the stack of papers, and then, ignoring Gao Hesheng's bitter crying, handed over the concocted "confession" to Empress Wu's hands.

"Give him a hand!"

Empress Wu didn't look at those "confessions", she casually stuffed her hands into the wide sleeves, turned around, and walked out of the door in a hurry, leaving behind a gloomy sentence before going out......
