Hearing this, the prince sneered, "So, do you want to persuade Gu to endure this evil breath?" ”

"Nope." Shen Wenjiang shook his head, "The folk girl said that everything depends on the meaning of His Highness. On Shuofeng Island that day, His Royal Highness said that he was willing to be friends with Wen Jiang, and Wen Jiang also took His Royal Highness as a friend, thinking for you and doing what you want. ”

Do what you want to do as you want.

If these words came out of the mouth of anyone around him, the prince would never believe it.

But at this moment, the prince believed.

The girl in front of her is undoubtedly extremely beautiful, and what is even more rare is the sincere and pure eyes that flow from her eyes, like spring water.

He couldn't help but think that in the Tongfu Inn, when all the guards were not around and could not be rescued, it was this girl who stepped forward to save herself; This time, it was the same her, who went deep into the tiger's den to save herself with her own strength.

You should believe her.

The prince sighed in his heart.

When I invited her to Beijing, I just thought that this girl was still clever, played polo well, and her father was also a leader among the magistrates, and she might be useful in the future, but she didn't want to be rescued by her twice in a row.

"Then what do you think is the wisest thing to do now?" The prince asked, his tone much kinder than before, and he even took the initiative to step forward and pull her wrist to sit down at the table.

Shen Wenjiang smiled slightly, his big eyes were full of joy, "Your Highness, do you believe me?" ”

The prince smiled: "Naturally, I believe you, silly girl." ”

Shen Wenjiang said: "Since this is the case, then the folk girl will dare to say something from her heart." ”

"Yes, this matter is indeed related to the second prince, but he just wants to overturn the case for the Guo family and give his mother a justice."

"The second prince, like His Royal Highness, is a pure and filial child. Your Highness might as well think about it from another angle, if your mother and queen mother are wronged, will Your Highness also do something stupid for this? ”

"Silly? He wanted to kill Lonely. The prince stood up abruptly, propped his hands on the edge of the table, and said excitedly.

Shen Wenjiang looked up at him and smiled slightly, "Then how is Your Highness doing these days?" ”

The prince's face changed, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Life is better than death." ”

How is it better to live than to die? They tortured you? Still haven't given you food? Ready to starve you? ”

"Not really." The prince said with a gloomy face, "They dare." ”

"That's right, they don't dare, that's why Your Highness, you have lived a good life to this day, you don't lack arms or legs, you don't starve so much that you only have skin and bones left, and you can still scold them with a lot of anger, shouting that you want to punish them for the nine clans."

"By the way, Your Highness, if you really want to punish their nine clans, won't you even include Your Highness?"

At this moment, the prince was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, "Shen Wenjiang, who are you facing?" ”

"Your Highness, don't worry, the folk girl is just telling the truth."

"What about the Tongfu Inn?" The prince said angrily: "You also saw the situation at that time, they were dead." If it weren't for the fourth, the fourth would have blocked the knife for Lonely, and Lone ......"

"They're not in a group." Shen Wenjiang intercepted his words, and his face did not change.

Anyway, the people in the Tongfu Inn are dead, and there is no proof of death.

The prince was still angry, and snorted coldly: "So what? If they move Lonely, they deserve to die. ”

"Okay, Your Highness insists on this, then let's go to the government office." Shen Wenjiang said expressionlessly, "Presumably the other adults have been waiting there for a long time. ”

"What are you going to do? Give them a reward? "The prince didn't have a good air.

Shen Wen Jiang said coolly: "His Royal Highness has been kidnapped by bandits, do they dare to return to Beijing?" ”

"Humph! I'm just afraid to wait to see Lone's joke. ”

"It's good that Your Highness knows." Shen Wenjiang said: "Before leaving, the folk girl still has one last sentence to say." ”

"You say."

"His Royal Highness is a prince, not an ordinary prince. Only by enduring the momentary anger can we achieve a great cause in the future. If you blindly care about temporary gains and losses, you will lose your royal bearing. ”

"Then according to you, Lone suffered this sin in vain, and the second child still doesn't know how to get it behind his back?"

"Second Prince...... He didn't get stricken. Shen Wenjiang hesitated for a moment, but still said: "The people's daughter got the news that the mother of the second prince, Guo Chongrong, has died." ”

"What?" The prince was taken aback, and his face was full of astonishment.

Shen Wenjiang glanced at him, and said in a light tone: "And Your Majesty, you have promoted her to Concubine Rongshu." ”

The prince was silent for a moment.

Since he was a child, he has known that Guo Chongrong is very favored by his father.

My father spent most of the month in her Qifeng Palace, which was always full of laughter; And the Zhaoyang Hall of the Queen Mother is deserted day by day, even if the father and the emperor go occasionally, the two will quarrel, and they will break up unhappily every time.

Once, more than once, he saw his mother crying silently, and even overheard her secretly cursing her for not dying well......

And the younger brother, who was a year younger than him, was deeply loved by his father, who liked to call him "Erlang", and also carried him around in circles and accompanied him on horseback; And every time he sees himself, he always calls his name directly with a straight face, hardly hugs him much, and never rides with him.

Such a father made him stay away from him in his heart, and naturally he secretly hated the second child and his mother, and thought that he would have to take revenge on their mother and son when he grew up.

It's just that before he grew up, the Guo family suffered, and it also affected their mother and son, and they fell from the clouds into the dust overnight.

Soon after, the second Mo Ming broke his leg, and the doctor asserted that he would not be able to walk like a normal person in his life.

At that moment, he really felt that God was on his side and removed the "big trouble" for him.

The second child invited himself to go to the other courtyard, and after that, he returned to the palace and appeared in front of people; And he finally felt that he was raising his eyebrows.

Even his father paid more attention to him, often asking him about his homework, and occasionally praising him in front of the courtiers.

It turns out that there is no second child's day, so beautiful......

To this day, if it weren't for this mutation, he would never have thought that the crippled brother hiding in the royal courtyard would do such a thing to him.

"So, in this incident, the second prince has lost more than you." Shen Wenjiang continued.

The prince said stupidly: "So what? He brought it on himself. Even so, should Lone forgive him? ”

Shen Wenjiang said: "Then Your Highness, do you know that the Guo family's ink corruption case back then was related to your uncle Lord Xiao?" ”

The prince faintly felt that something was wrong, but he still stiffened his neck and said: "Uncle is the secretary of the military department, and it is reasonable for him to preside over this matter." ”

"Nope." Shen Wenjiang shook his head, "Not only that. Your uncle, he's more involved than you think—"

Hearing this, the prince was silent again.

He's not a kid anymore.

Over the years, he has followed his father to the court and listened to the government, and he has seen too much of the various intrigues in the court.

And he gradually understood that even if you are an emperor, not everything can be handled clearly.
