Chapter 202: How to Deal with Yourself
The Seventh Prince packed his luggage and it was time to leave, but at this moment he was sitting in the room, and he had no intention of going out.
After a while, the housekeeper hurriedly ran in, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said, "Lord Wang, everything is ready, it's time to leave." ”
Without hearing the answer he wanted, the Seventh Prince did not move like a mountain, quietly twisted the beads in his hand, and said calmly: "Wait a little longer." ”
The housekeeper was supposed to say something more, but seeing that the Seventh Prince looked calm, he could only reply: "Yes." ”
After the housekeeper left, the Seventh Prince picked up the teacup on the table and quietly took a sip of tea. At this moment, the emperor should have received the news that he was leaving.
At this juncture, the emperor can't make up his own mind, he will definitely call someone to find him, it is a matter of time whether he can find it or not, he must have the patience to wait, otherwise it will be in vain.
After a while, the Seventh Prince did not wait for the news that the emperor came first, but waited for the news from Wang Shangshu first. Su Mujin suddenly appeared and rescued the two children, and the people he sent. It was all solved in advance.
Thinking of this, the Seventh Prince sat up and asked, "Do you know who is with Su Mujin?" ”
The person who came to report shook his head, indicating that he didn't know. didn't get the answer he wanted, and the Seven Princes had mixed feelings. Although Yun Jingyao had been killed by the people he sent, the Seventh Prince still felt that something was wrong.
As smart as the regent, he didn't believe that he would be able to disappear so easily, not to mention that the corpse handed over by his henchmen at that time was still the kind of burned beyond recognition.
Seeing that this person couldn't ask why, the Seventh Prince stopped at him, and Shenqing said solemnly: "Go down." ”
"Yes...... Be. The man clenched his fists. Nervously, he retreated out the door.
As the man was about to leave, the Seventh Prince hurriedly called out to him, "Wait. ”
The man paused, turned back halfway, and said nervously, "It's still ...... What else? ”
The Seventh Prince pursed his lips and said: "No matter the ends of the world, you must find Su Mujin for this king, after finding her, don't startle the snake, you must follow the vine, once you find a suspicious clue, immediately report it to this king." ”
At the same time, as soon as this person left on the front foot, Gonggong Zhang, who was sent by the emperor on the back foot, came. As soon as he saw Gonggong Zhang, the Seventh Prince immediately sat up, walked over quickly, and asked, "How is it?" ”
Gonggong Zhang is the person of the Seventh Prince, although the Seventh Prince did not say what he asked, he has already touched his mind clearly, he smiled all over his face, stepped forward, hugged his fists and said: "If you go back to the prince, our emperor will love you to go over." ”
Finally.
The Seventh Prince's hanging heart finally relaxed at this time, he hurriedly turned around, pulled the robe in his hand, and said, "Take me there." ”
Gonggong Zhang stretched out a hand, made way for the Seventh Prince, and said with a flattering smile: "Lord Wang, please." ”
When he left, there was no sense of tranquility and indifference in the Seventh Prince, and his ambition was also exposed at this time. He believed that after a period of time, the position of the emperor would definitely be rightfully attributed to him.
When I got to the palace, it was almost night. In order to wait for the seventh prince to come, the emperor specially prepared a table of delicious food and drink to entertain him.
After meeting people, the emperor immediately got up and invited the seventh prince to go to school. In the eyes of the emperor, the Seventh Prince is not only his brother, but also his confidant, and he is also a confidant who can give him advice.
The emperor sighed with emotion: "Brother Seventh Emperor, you can be regarded as here, you said that you have nothing to do to go to the mountain?" Can you go to the mountains and be in the court? I won't treat you badly. ”
The Seventh Prince put the folding fan in his hand on the table, sat down opposite the emperor a little detachedly, and slightly bent the corners of his mouth, "Your Majesty, I have studied Taoist magic since I was a child, and I already have the idea of wanting to take refuge in the mountains and forests in my heart. Although the court is good, it is not the place that the courtiers want to go after all. ”
The emperor rubbed his eyebrows, every time he chatted with the Seventh Emperor Brother, in addition to work matters, the most he said was to retreat, and he didn't know what was good about retreating. I thought so, but the emperor didn't say what was in his heart in the end.
He laughed twice, sent someone to bring the prepared wine, poured himself wine, and said: "It's not that I have to keep you, it's really that I've been too busy with the tribute recently, and I can't be busy alone, and the imperial brother is the only person I can trust, so I have to ask the imperial brother to help with this." ”
Hearing this, for a while, the Seven Princes seemed to be a little embarrassed. At this time, the wine in the emperor's hand had already been poured, and he presented the wine to the Seventh Prince with both hands, and sighed: "Brother Seventh Emperor, no matter what, my country cannot be without you." ”
"Since the emperor has said so, if the younger brother shirks again, it is not the younger brother's." Taking the wine glass, the Seventh Prince sighed worriedly, and soon regained his composure.
After getting a satisfactory answer, the emperor smiled, he laughed, and said: "Don't worry, don't hurry, it's easy to say, as long as the emperor's brother agrees to me, everything will be easy to say, let's talk about it after we finish the meal haha." ”
In this way, the seven princes accompanied the emperor to have a meal with their own ghosts.
After eating, it was almost dark, and the emperor even left the Seven Princes to sleep in the palace and leave tomorrow. With such an honor, looking at the whole world, there will be no second person except the Seven Princes.
The two of them entered the imperial study together, and the emperor told the seventh prince about the assassination of the regent, and he said worriedly: "Brother Huang, I originally just wanted to raid the regent's house to make an example, and I didn't mean to force his life, but now everything has changed. ”
"The regent's whereabouts are unknown, and I can't say whether he will make a comeback to take revenge on me, but I can't explain it to the Western Regions alone."
The reason why he punished the regent was adultery with a foreign enemy, and this foreign enemy refers to the Western Regions, originally he just wanted to symbolically kill the chicken and make an example of the monkey, but he didn't expect to directly pull the regent off the horse, and the relationship with the Western Regions was completely stiffened.
Coupled with the death of the two princesses of the Western Regions, this incident is forcing him to embark on the road of tearing his face with the Western Regions, and he doesn't want to take this road.
Hearing his words, the Seventh Prince frowned, and finally couldn't help sighing, and said, "It sounds like someone is operating in the dark, deliberately letting the emperor start a war with the people of the Western Regions, can the emperor have an eyebrow for this person?" ”
The emperor shook his head, if he had eyebrows, he would not be so flustered. Thinking of this, the emperor said, "According to my brother, what should I do to resolve this crisis?" ”
"This ......"
The Seventh Prince picked up the folding fan, opened and closed it, closed it, and after a while, he suddenly said: "The courtier brother has a way, I don't know if it is feasible." ”
