Chapter 113: It's All Fake
Didn't the Lord say that this token was fake?
Why do you have to ask this Su Ming on purpose.
Su Ming didn't shirk it at this time, but he didn't even look at the token and told Chu Yunshen with a serious expression
"Under King Jing (diàn), this token is fake, it's all fake."
Are they all fake?
Chu Yunshen's heart moved slightly, and even his voice became a little more unfathomable.
"Master Su, let's go."
Chu Yunshen asked the answer he wanted, and he didn't dwell on it, put away the token and Shi Shiran stood up.
Xiao Wu took Su Ming and his party Hao Hao (dàng) (dàng) back to the official court.
I heard a lot of rumors along the way.
"Did you hear that? The price of salt in Jincheng has grown wildly, and the surrounding areas have grown, and I think the next one will be the turn of the capital. ”
"Not really! I heard that it wasn't the above princes who made these things because they were making money privately? The capital can be at the feet of the emperor, they dare to be so bold? ”
"How many are there, it's obviously one! But what I've heard is that there is a battle between princes and princes. ”
……
"Lord, do you want me to stop them?"
Xiao Wu asked Chu Yunshen outside the car.
Why is there such a fuss in the capital now, as if everyone knows about these things overnight?
After the lord's order before, he obviously took the secret guard to completely block the news.
The matter of the county Cheng reporting was also suppressed as much as possible, and everyone knew how to go to Jincheng and come back.
The sudden change in the capital made Xiao Wu feel very strange, and Su Ming, who was sitting with Chu Yunshen in the carriage, was even more worried.
"Not necessarily. Go back first. ”
Chu Yun glanced at Su Ming intriguingly.
It was not advisable to stay on the road for a long time, and when such a thing happened, several people rushed back without stopping.
As soon as a few people entered the hall of the Guanli Yuan and sat down, Xiao Wu didn't have time to listen to how Chu Yunshen would deal with Su Ming, and Yuan Qing's sharp high-pitched voice came from outside the Guanyuan
"King Jing (diàn) has issued an order!"
Yuan Qing had already walked to the middle of the hall of the official court, pinching the orchid and pointing to the decree.
"Spread my message, King Xuanjing (diàn) went down to the palace to meet him, Qinzai!"
"The retainers obey."
Yun Qing didn't look at Chu Yunshen who was kneeling on the ground, he turned his head a little, and said to Su Ming with a smile (rou).
"Master Su is also here, so let's just enter the palace with us. It's also a province for our family to go on another trip to invite you. ”
The lord had just returned to Beijing to find Su Ming, and this front and back foot kung fu was discovered by the palace.
The palace knew that the time was too fast this time, as if someone had waited for a long time, and had specially prepared a plan for every step, waiting for them to get into this circle (tào).
Xiao Wu wanted to say something, but was stopped by Chu Yunshen's stern look.
This fulfilled Su Ming's wish.
He patted his green robe and slowly got up (shēn), and firmly followed Chu Yunshen to the palace together.
That extraordinary posture is quite a bit of the wind and the cold of the water.
When Chu Yunshen arrived at the imperial study, a person was already kneeling in the center at this time, and the eighth prince Chu Jingxuan was standing aside.
Chu Hongzhen on the main seat had an angry face, obviously angry.
"The son of the emperor greets his father."
Chu Yun walked to Chu Hongzhen and knelt down without squinting, but Chu Hongzhen didn't immediately call him up.
"How do you think I can be at ease when something so big happens?"
Chu Hongzhen slammed the music in his hand on the table, and after scolding Chu Yunshen, he turned around and asked Chu Jingxuan, who was standing aside.
"Jing Shuo, tell me. What the hell is going on. ”
"Father, my sons don't know", the eighth prince Chu Jingxuan looked at Chu Hongzhen on the seat with an innocent face, "The sons heard some gossip some time ago, and the sons knew that their abilities were still shallow, and they were not as good as the fourth brother, so they had already entrusted this matter to the fourth brother. ”
"In that case, the fourth brother, then you can talk about it."
"Erchen did accept the matter and found Lord Su Ming in the near (ri)......"
Chu Yunshen wanted to hand over the list of secret letters in his arms, but who expected Chu Hongzhen to deliberately cold him, and before he could finish answering, he skipped him and looked at Chu Yelin, the seventh prince, who was kneeling in the center.
Chu Yunshen laughed in his heart, and also turned his head to look at the Seventh Prince who was kneeling beside him.
I saw that the seventh prince first turned his head to look at Su Ming, who was kneeling, and then straightened his robe, and opened his mouth with a smile: "Father, the son has investigated some things." ”
What the Seventh Prince didn't notice was that Chu Jingxuan, the Eighth Prince who was standing on the side, just touched the Jade Buddha that he had fallen on his waist, and Su Ming's face turned a little pale.
But all this was seen by Chu Yunshen, the corners of his mouth pulled slightly, and he looked at Chu Yelin, the seventh prince, who was trying his best to perform.
Poor seventh brother, he thought everything was under his control!
"Yuan Qing, present it."
Yuan Qing handed Chu Hongzhen a stack of secret letters and ledgers handed over by Chu Yelin, and quietly stepped aside, for fear that Chu Hongzhen's anger would spread to himself (shēn).
Chu Yunshen couldn't help but feel a little funny when he looked at Yuan Qing's cautious appearance, this was his father's ability.
Let all be obedient, humble themselves to the dust, and then look up and worship Him.
"Father, this is what Erchen investigated from Master Su before. The above is the evidence of the national salt deficit case. ”
Chu Yelin, the seventh prince who was kneeling on the ground with Chu Yunshen, was looking at the eighth prince with the rest of his eyes, the latter still looked innocent, and he was even a little aggrieved when he heard his words.
"Father, take a closer look, the secret letter on this is the handwriting of the eighth brother, and there is his exclusive seal underneath."
"Old Seven, are you sure what you said is true?"
Glancing at the seal at the bottom, Chu Hongzhen suddenly looked at the triumphant Chu Yelin with an angry face, and the anger in his words couldn't be more obvious.
I didn't understand why my father suddenly changed his face, and Chu Yelin, the seventh prince who was very confident in the evidence in his hand, continued to speak
"Father, this is true. Master Su is the middleman, and he knows best. ”
The Seventh Emperor said conclusively, and pointed to Su Ming on the side and said to Chu Hongzhen, "As we all know, Lord Su is subordinate to the household department managed by the eighth brother, and it is not surprising that he will help the eighth brother do some things in private. ”
After speaking, Chu Yelin also glanced at Chu Yunshen, who was kneeling aside, and clasped his fists and said, "Erchen, I believe that the fourth brother will definitely investigate impartially." ”
Chu Yunshen looked at Chu Hongzhen, who laughed angrily at this time, but did not speak.
"How can Brother Seventh slander me like this......"
Chu Yunshen hadn't replied yet, and in the entire big (diàn), except for the standing imperial eunuch Yuan Qing, the only one standing, the eighth prince Chu Jingxuan, couldn't hold it back.
I saw that when he heard this, the originally innocent cousin (qg) suddenly became incredulous, and then (qg) began to complain to Chu Hongzhen sadly
"Father, the sons and daughters have always remembered that we have been brothers (qg) since childhood, and they are tolerant of the Seventh Brother's usual behavior. I didn't expect Seventh Brother to frame me for such a big event......"
Chu Hongzhen sneered and appeased the eighth prince, "Old eight, let your seventh brother speak." ”
Thinking that his father had believed him, the seventh prince, Chu Yelin, opened his mouth impatiently
"Eighth brother, you are unreasonable in what you said, it is obvious that you are collecting money privately......"
"Why is Brother Qi so sure?"
The words of the eighth prince, Chu Jingxuan, suddenly became a little ill-intentioned: "What if the seventh brother is wrong?" ”
Chu Yunshen, who had been watching from the side, twitched the corners of his mouth at this time, his seventh brother was too anxious, and he hadn't noticed that the eighth brother was so obviously agitated.
In fact, Chu Yunshen knew that the Seventh Emperor Ziping (ri) could also be regarded as having both ability and political integrity, and this time he really thought that this matter was foolproof, and the hot pursuit over there would be so.
He sighed to himself.
"Brother Seven, it's better not to be so sure."
The eighth prince, Chu Jingxuan, looked at his seventh brother kneeling in the center, and sneered in his heart.
He had already asked Su Ming to report the (qg) to the seventh brother in Pingli (ri), and now he naturally has nothing to fear.
But his (y) compassionate tone did not scare the Seventh Prince Chu Yelin.
"You'd better worry about yourself first! Eighth brother. ”
The sharp edge between the two did not avoid the ears of Chu Yunshen, who had been hanging his head, and no one found the (qg) hidden in his eyes.
He seemed to be able to imagine how his father, who was waiting for his 'respect', would be furious and sarcastic.
Sure enough, while the two were arguing, Chu Hongzhen on the seat had already flipped through the secret letters and read them several times.
His face had changed from a sneer just now to (y) Sen, and he suddenly slapped the desk with a sudden "bang", threw the secret letter presented by the Seventh Prince just now on his head, and shouted loudly
"Old Seven, take a good look, whose seal is this? You're so daring! Even I dare to lie! ”
The seventh prince, Chu Yelin, dodged the secret letter thrown down, and was shocked by Chu Hongzhen's sudden anger for a while, and he was still a little dizzy, "Father, are you mistaken?" It's the eighth brother who is hiding from you, not me! ”
"Presumptuous! You also poured this dirty water on your eighth brother (shēn)! See for yourself! ”
Those secret letters, which had no weight, were thrown down abruptly, and fell lightly on the fine stone brick floor of the imperial study.
The Seventh Prince, Chu Yelin, hurriedly went over and picked up one of them, and his face changed directly when he saw it.
He didn't give up, so he picked up the other secret letters, examined them one by one, carefully read them back and forth several times, and kept talking to himself
"This can't be, this can't be ......"
"What impossible! Don't tell me that this seal is still your eighth brother's! ”
Chu Hongzhen didn't leave any face for the Seventh Prince Chu Yelin, and even made his tone more severe
"Your eighth brother has always been well-behaved and sensible, and you yourself committed such a wrong thing, and you still want to frame him!"
"It was clearly not like this before......"
Chu Yunshen looked indifferently at Chu Yelin panicking in a secret letter, he expected Chu Hongzhen to see what was going on?
Even if the evidence is not in favor of the eighth brother, the father will be biased, not to mention that the seal on the secret letter at this time may have been replaced by the seventh brother's own.
Isn't it obvious who my father likes (qg)?
Did he think that he would be able to pull the eighth brother into the water in this way?
With Chu Yunshen's understanding of Chu Hongzhen, he already knew what (tào) path he would be next.
Chu Hongzhen, who was furious, looked at Chu Yunshen, who had been doing nothing, and said solemnly, "Fourth, this case is under your control, tell me what you have found?" I heard that you also went to Jincheng, what did this son of a son do? ”
When Chu Yunshen heard this, he inevitably wanted to sneer a few times, and sure enough, he couldn't hide anything from the emperor's eyes.
This painless inquiry made him feel extremely ironic.
"Father, Chen Fu of Jincheng County was killed after his son's minister's past, and his son's son only found this token at the scene."
