Chapter 246: Death Makes a Will
Leaving the Prince's Mansion, Wu You walked on the stone road with an umbrella, the pedestrians on the street gradually became scarce, and the unexpected encounter of rain disrupted the steps of many people, Wu You turned to look at the palace in the dark, the eldest grandson Han was still among them, and the third prince was also there, frowning, Wu You turned around and walked home, no matter what, many things are not something he can decide now, but Wu You knows that no matter what happens, he already has someone he wants to protect in this era, and he can't tolerate others to hurt him.
Back home, hot tea, hot rice, hot kangtou, Wu You was full of food and drink, teasing the puppy, life, how simple it is, the small house covers all the worldly things.
Two days of peace, Wu You also let the prince's people smoothly through the Praetorian Guard, but no news was obtained, and soon the news came out in the palace, one is the prince supervising the country, the other is the three princes and auxiliary countries, the ministers of the court can discuss with them if they have anything, and then there is no news, the ministers have different thoughts, and on the third day, when they were in the morning, they saw that in addition to the dragon chair in the court, there were two golden silk nanmu chairs next to them, the prince sat on the right, and the three princes sat on the left.
Wu You was also relieved to see the long-lost eldest grandson Han, who had not seen anyone in the past two days, but he was a lot haggard, and the prince was standing next to the eunuch of the early dynasty, and his voice went down, the ministers knelt down, the prince's expression was stiff, but the third prince was full of spring breeze.
As soon as the crown prince wanted to speak, the third prince had already spoken: "Father is not in good health, if there is anything you can say to me in the future, this king will communicate more with His Royal Highness the prince!" ”
The prince was dissatisfied: "Third brother, this palace is entrusted by His Majesty to serve as the supervisor of the country, and this court matter, I'm afraid it has nothing to do with you!" ”
The third prince said with a smile: "My father's decree has made it clear that the imperial brother is in charge of the country, and the foolish brother is auxiliary to the country, how can the major affairs of this country have nothing to do with me?" ”
"In that case, then the palace is going to ask you, why the Praetorian Guards don't allow me to enter the palace to visit my father!" The prince said in a choked voice.
"Father's dragon body should not be disturbed, foolish brother is also thinking about his father's body, what is the emperor's mind when he wants to disturb his father's rest?" The third prince raised his eyes, looked at the prince indifferently and said.
The third prince didn't give the prince a chance to be angry, and said loudly: "If you have something, please play, and if you have nothing to do, you will retreat!" The prince held his breath in his stomach, but he couldn't spit it out.
Xu Wending took the lead and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince of Qiqi, the appearance of the Bodhisattva rising in Hongguan Temple the day before yesterday is extremely strange, and Weichen begs to send troops to investigate!" ”
The ministers all nodded, although the emperor had already determined it at that time, but the more I thought about this matter, the more strange it became, it was better to find out, if everyone followed this move, then what authority did the empire have.
The third prince laughed and said, "Lord Xu, this king has not convicted you yet, and you are embarrassed to mention this matter!" ”
The crown prince looked at the third prince gloomily and said, "What? Bengong didn't reply, can the third brother already be independent? ”
The third prince didn't dare to say anything, and then said in a cold voice: "Lord Xu, as the Yin of Jingzhao Mansion, is derelict in such an important matter, it is really a great crime, not to mention, my father is now in poor health, and Lord Xu is also to blame, this king feels that Lord Xu is already difficult to be qualified for the position of Yin of Jingzhao Mansion, I don't know what the imperial brother thinks?" ”
The crown prince could no longer suppress his anger, stood up and said: "Eldest grandson Changde, now is the time of storms and storms, when it is time to employ people, you dare to arbitrarily appoint and dismiss the court officials who give you the right!" ”
The third prince sat on the chair and ignored the prince's anger, and instead sneered: "The auxiliary state has the right to remove and appoint, what's the matter, don't you know?" ”
The prince smiled angrily and said, "The third brother must have forgotten that it was in the case of discussing with the palace!" ”
The third prince was puzzled: "Does the imperial brother think that Lord Xu is not at fault for such a dereliction of duty?" The imperial brother should not forget, the matter of the father and the emperor is related to Lord Xu, and the imperial brother is now so partial to Lord Xu, could it be that the imperial brother already knows about it? ”
The prince pointed to the three princes and couldn't speak, Xu Wending stood in the court for a while and didn't know how to resist, the ministers were all very emotional when they saw this situation, and they all kept silent, only to see Bai Xiang slowly come out and say: "The old minister has a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not!" ”
The third prince suddenly changed his expression, which made people say like a spring breeze: "Xiangye, let's say!" ”
"Although Lord Xu is responsible for dereliction of duty, but after all, this matter is sudden, and I can't complain about Lord Xu, why don't you send Lord Xu to Weizhou to deal with the disaster victims, and let Lord Xu make up for it!" After Bai Xiang finished speaking, various officials immediately stepped forward to second.
Xu Wending took a step back with a pale face, Weizhou Since the snow disaster, the imperial court has not come up with any good methods, and can only send grain through the treasury, and now it is simply a bottomless pit, the prince also feels that there is darkness in front of him, and he stumbled a step, and the prince and his family immediately quoted scriptures and classics to criticize the three princes for being arbitrary.
The third prince didn't care, he still looked at the excited officials below with a smile, and immediately said: "It just so happens that it's okay recently, but I know some gossip, such as a certain official who received a large amount of money to buy and sell officials, and there are still some who embezzled the people's fertile land and killed the people who came to Beijing to complain. ”
The court was suddenly silent, the crown prince turned his head, looked at the third prince who had been smiling, gritted his teeth and said, "Third brother, don't go too far in everything!" ”
The third prince looked at the crown prince and said faintly: "Shouldn't you ask for an explanation for the safety of your father?" ”
The crown prince smiled coldly and didn't speak again, and the third prince turned his head to look at Xu Wending, who had recovered below, and said, "Lord Xu, I don't know if you have any objections!" ”
Xu Wending looked at the prince, and finally shook his head and stopped talking, turned around and left the court, and walked to the next stop of his life. Your Majesty, minister, dissatisfied! After that, he rushed to the pillar and crashed directly into the court, which added to the gloom.
Wu You, who was originally expressionless, suddenly widened his eyes, only felt a sullen breath in his chest, his fists were clenched, and his eyes kept staring at the dead minister, it turns out that there are really such people in this era, they are not cold words in history, nor are they cold bridges in movies, their bloody existence, they dare to give up their lives to insist on what they insist on, even though these people are pedantic, but they practice the perfection of personality!
Wu You never heard what was happening in front of him again, and all in his mind was the official who didn't know his name, and he was determined to die! What kind of courage is this! (To be continued.) )
