His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has returned to Beijing!

The news spread as quickly as wings all over the major mansions in Chang'an City, making the ministers of the court and the central government a little surprised, and the imperial histories from all walks of life were even more moved, but in half a day, the political affairs hall had received nearly ten copies of the impeachment of the prince for returning to Beijing without permission.

The Hall of Politics.

"Xu Xiang, how to deal with these twists and turns of impeaching the prince?"

Today is Xu Jingzong on duty, the old Xu is old, his energy is limited, and many of the unimportant twists and turns are for the Zhongshu people to dispose of on his behalf, according to the rules, this kind of twists and turns should be submitted to Li Zhi, but last night's situation Gao Zhongshu saw it, so he asked Xu Jingzong with some hesitation.

Last night's confrontation was really a bit energy-consuming, because Xu Jingzong had no energy for a day, and he was squinting his eyes and taking a nap at the moment, when he heard Gao Zhongshu's question, he raised his eyelids listlessly and waved his hand.

"You also saw the situation yesterday, the prince's return to Beijing is the intention of His Majesty and Niangniang, these impeachment of the prince to return to Beijing without permission do not need to be played, burn it!"

Just kidding, the crown prince has just been assassinated in the Eastern Capital, and now he is being held in the palm of His Majesty's hand, why are these folds handed over? Scolded! Xu Jingzong paused, looked at the hour, it was almost noon, well, it was time to go back.

Xu Jingzong continued.

"In addition, Your Majesty's will to re-establish the East Palace has already been prepared, right? If you are ready, you will immediately send it to the world! ”

"Xu Xiang!"

Xu Jingzong finished lazily speaking, and was just about to skip work in advance, when he heard a shout, and then saw Hao Chujun rushing in in a hurry, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

This old man Hao, who is so old, is always so frizzy when he encounters trouble, he really doesn't have the demeanor of a prime minister.

"Oh, my Xu Xiang! Why do you still have the leisure to drink tea here, quick, come with me to the East Palace! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was assassinated in the Imperial City last night! ”

Hao Chujun saw Xu Jingzong's lazy appearance, his heart was very angry, and he didn't care about any etiquette, so he hurriedly spoke.

It's just that as soon as he finished speaking, he heard a "pop", and the teacup that Xu Jingzong had just picked up in his hand was shattered.

"What do you say? His Royal Highness was assassinated in the Imperial City? What is the situation now, has His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ever been injured? ”

After listening to Hao Chujun's words, Xu Jingzong's slightly narrowed eyes immediately opened, exuding a terrifying light, and he asked eagerly, regardless of the fact that his robe was splashed with tea.

"Your Highness is fine, but the crown princess was stabbed by a thief in order to protect His Highness, and now her life and death are uncertain!"

Hao Chujun looked at Xu Jingzong, a little strange.

"Xu Xiang, you ...... You don't know about this? ”

"Gao Zhongshu, what's going on?"

Xu Jingzong shouted at Gao Zhongshu, a member of the Zhongshu Academy, a little angrily.

Last night, after they all left, it was Gao Zhongshu who continued to stay in the political hall to sort out the twists, if there was an assassination, it didn't make sense that Gao Zhongshu didn't know, but when he came over early this morning, Gao Zhongshu didn't say anything, which couldn't help but make Xu Jingzong a little angry.

"Xu Xiangrong, after the adults left yesterday, there was indeed an assassination in the imperial city, but His Royal Highness was not injured, and the thief was also caught red-handed, and then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent someone to come, saying that His Royal Highness would personally inform your lords, and instructed the lower officials not to mention it to the adults, it was the following officials who did not report to Lord Xu!"

Gao Zhongshu saw that Xu Jingzong was so angry, so he immediately bowed down and explained, his tone was a little helpless, he really didn't want to do this, but the guards sent by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince told him not to tell Xu Xiang......

"Xu Xiang, don't rub it off, come with me to the East Palace! It's a dereliction of duty for us to have such a big event happen! ”

Hao Chujun hurriedly pulled Xu Jingzong and left the political hall.

East Palace.

Poor Xu Jingzong was old, and his body was very fat, and he was dragged all the way to the East Palace by Hao Chujun, and he was already out of breath.

After a while, the two of them saw Li Hong come to the front hall with a tired face.

"Old minister, see His Royal Highness the Prince!"

The two had just finished saluting Li Hong, and before they could sit down, Hao Chujun asked anxiously.

"The old minister heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was assassinated in the imperial city last night, has His Highness been well?"

Although he had already received the news and knew that Li Hong was safe and sound, Hao Chujun still asked with some relief.

"Well, I'm worried about the two ministers, it's nothing big to be alone."

Li Hong said with a thick smile on his face.

"Your Highness, what was the situation yesterday? The old minister heard that the thief had been caught, which was a great blessing for the country! ”

Xu Jingzong was much calmer than Hao Chujun, and when he heard that Li Hong was fine, he relieved himself and said with a smile.

"Last night's incident Lone has already been played, report to my father overnight, and a copy will be submitted to the political hall later, this time Lone wants to see, it is those lawless things, dare to be so presumptuous, okay, Lone is a little tired, I'm sorry for the two ministers, please go back!"

Li Hong's face sank, and anyone could hear the anger contained in Li Hong's words, but the strange thing was that Li Hong did not give a clear explanation, but only vaguely said that he would send a copy to him, so he could not say that he had ordered the expulsion.

Standing outside the gate of the East Palace, Hao Chujun and Xu Jingzong glanced at each other, both seeing the incomprehension in each other's eyes.

However, Xu Jingzong keenly felt that the sky of Chang'an City was probably about to change, and it can be seen from the performance of yesterday's political affairs hall that the prince is no longer the prince who hesitated in the past, and the current prince is not so easy to mess with!

Chang'an City, a mansion in the East City.

"Damn, why failed again! Why isn't that slut dead yet! ”

A handsome man dressed in gorgeous clothes angrily overturned the table, and his handsome face was full of hideousness and unwillingness.

"Hmph, this action is too reckless, the old man has long advised Gongzi not to act rashly, Gongzi has to insist on arranging assassination in a hurry, and now not only has a secret son been exposed, but also fell into the hands of the other party, what should I do now?"

An old man stroked his beard and said angrily to the man.

"However, the matter of the Eastern Capital has failed, this is already the last chance, it was originally well arranged, who knew that Li Hong's slut actually returned to the palace in advance, so I had to launch an action in advance, not to mention, if I missed this time, not to mention the strict guarding of the palace, it will be difficult for me to succeed, and the sixth rate of the East Palace will really be built in the future, and I will have no chance!"

The handsome man gritted his teeth, and his tone was full of unwillingness.

"Poisoning and assassination is a matter of breaking the rules, as long as we plan properly, we don't have to use this as a means, we can press him above the court, and there is no life or death, why take such a big risk!"

The old man frowned and said slowly.

"Oh, what do you mean by that, sir?"

The handsome man gradually calmed down and asked the old man.

"Everything will be when His Majesty returns to Beijing after March, and then we will only need to ......"

The old man lowered his voice and whispered to the handsome man.

"Good, good, sir! That slut won't be able to escape from Mr.'s palm this time! ”

The handsome man stroked his palms and laughed.

"It's just that what we have to think about right now is how not to be found on us!"

The old man was not as cheerful as the handsome man, and continued to frown.

"Hehe, this doesn't have to worry about Mr., since I arranged this operation, I am naturally prepared for the failure of the operation, I added a little bit of something to the wine and food before he left, so at this moment he is afraid that he will never speak again, Mr. rest assured, that slut will never find out about us!"

The handsome man laughed sinikingly, his face full of confidence, which made the old man gradually relax his heart.
