Chapter 619:-for-tat

"Prime Minister, what do you have to say?"

The emperor has always noticed that the prime minister is a little uneasy, if there is something on weekdays, the prime minister speaks most enthusiastically, but today he does not say a word, the emperor does not believe that he has not heard of the rumors about Gongsun Yi outside.

The prime minister didn't expect the emperor to ask him, he quickly came out of his thoughts, and then replied: "If you go back to the emperor, the ministers have nothing important, and the emperor will see if the other ministers have any problems." ”

For some reason, when the prime minister saw the emperor's face, he could always think of the queen mother, as if the queen mother was in front of him.

The prime minister devoted his life's work to the court, and in the end he couldn't even ask the emperor why the queen mother treated their family like that.

The emperor can see that the prime minister has something on his mind, this is the first time in so many years that the prime minister has wandered in the court, the prime minister does not say that there must be something unspeakable, but the emperor keeps his emotions in his heart.

"Do the rest of you have anything else to say?" After the beginning of the early dynasty, there were only some simple government affairs, and there was no one to speak later, and the emperor felt that today's court was a little unusual.

In fact, everyone knows what the problems that need to be solved in the court today.

"Your Majesty, the minister has heard some bad news in recent days, about Prince Heshuo."

A young courtier, whose official position is not very big, his courage is greater than that of others, seeing that none of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty mentioned the previous matter, in a period of silence, he spoke.

The emperor was waiting for someone to mention this matter, but no one mentioned it, and now that this person has raised this matter, he is very satisfied.

"I have already found someone to investigate this matter, I believe you all heard about it a few days ago, the Taishi came to me with a group of people and asked me to severely punish Prince Heshuo."

When the emperor spoke, his eyes looked in the direction of Gongsun Yi, but Gongsun Yi did not avoid it, nor did he look directly at him.

After this matter was mentioned, the others no longer pretended not to be clear, and the court suddenly became lively.

The ministers were whispering, and although they were talking about it, no one was willing to say anything, and if something was wrong, the trouble would come from the mouth, and naturally no one would want to be the first bird.

The emperor didn't hear what everyone was saying clearly, and now he wanted to solve the problem, not listen to their group of people chattering here.

Taiwei and Zai, who didn't care about Gongsun Yi's affairs, looked at each other, they knew that if there was no Gongsun Yi, they would all fall into the queen mother's plan, and when the time came, they were afraid that the emperor would not be willing to speak for them.

Shen Chenchen and Gongsun Yi have a good relationship, and the prime minister also knows how difficult Gongsun Yi has been in these years, no matter from what point of view, the prime minister should also say a word or two for Gongsun Yi.

When the prime minister hesitated to say a few words, the captain spoke.

"Your Majesty, the full picture of this matter is not known at present, you can't listen to the rumors in the market, how could Prince Heshuo be connected with the Jianghu sect, there must be a misunderstanding in this."

Taiwei's meaning is very clear, that is, it needs to be investigated clearly before he can convict Gongsun Yi, and at present, it is not clear whether Gongsun Yi and Fushengmen colluded, and hurriedly convicted Gongsun Yi, that is the most confused.

The lieutenant doesn't usually speak to anyone, and he just looks at many things, although what she says is fair. can see that he is defending Gongsun Yi.

Taiwei, who has always been ignorant, now took the initiative to talk about Gongsun Yi and Fushengmen, the prince was a little angry at this time, when he went to Taiwei's mansion before, Taiwei was very respectful to him, and he also told Taiwei about the queen mother's plan to assassinate Ziming, and Taiwei's current attitude is obviously speaking for Gongsun Yi.

The prince began to get nervous, he was worried about whether Gongsun Yi was winning over Taiwei, if Taiwei was really won over by Gongsun Yi, then he would have more strength, and the prince would have more pressure.

"I think that Taiwei is reasonable, how can I blame Prince Heshuo without evidence."

The emperor seemed to be speaking for Gongsun Yi, but in fact he was thinking about how to let this matter pass like this.

The prime minister felt a little guilty because of Ziming's matter, and Taiwei's current attitude was biased towards Gongsun Yi, and he thought about what he should say, after all, silence can't change anything.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what the Taiwei said is reasonable, and he can't listen to the rumors outside before the matter is investigated, and he has wronged innocent people."

The emperor looked at the Taiwei and the prime minister with a little meaning of singing and harmonizing, these two people don't have much contact on weekdays, but today is a little strange.

"Didn't the Taiwei and the prime minister see it, because of this rumor, the people in the capital are in turmoil, which has seriously affected the hearts of the people in the capital, and there is no wind and no waves." Taishi has always been prejudiced against Gongsun Yi, he is the queen mother's person, and naturally hopes to get rid of Gongsun Yi.

Seeing the meaning of Taiwei and the prime minister, it seems that he has wronged Gongsun Yi, even if this matter really has nothing to do with Gongsun Yi, but because he has affected people's hearts, he should be punished.

The prime minister usually doesn't bother to quarrel with the Taishi, because there is no interest involved between the two, and neither of them affects the other.

Everyone knew that the Taishi was from the Queen Mother's side, and when they thought of what the Queen Mother had done, the Prime Minister was angry.

"Is it possible that the Taishi wants to convict Prince Heshuo now, since ancient times, to convict a person, there must always be evidence of his crime, please ask the Taishi to have evidence in his hand."

Taishi originally expected that the prime minister would not be nosy, and naturally he would not argue with him, but he was completely mistaken.

was told so by the prime minister, and the Taishi didn't know how to answer for a while.

"Your Majesty, you have already sent someone to investigate, may I ask what progress is being made so far?" Taishi said that he couldn't be the prime minister, he was criticized by the emperor before, and now he was questioned by the prime minister like this in front of many officials, and he didn't know what he should do for a while.

The emperor looked at the captain and said earnestly: "The prime minister is right, you are also an old minister in the court, and you can't speak rashly." ”

Although the emperor was not angry, it could be heard from his words that he was not happy with the Taishi's aggressiveness.

Taishi knew that his performance had aroused the emperor's disgust recently, so he didn't say more, his attitude was very clear, no matter whether this matter had anything to do with Gongsun Yi or not, Gongsun Yi was responsible.

The prime minister and the captain looked at the princess as if they were looking at the queen mother, but the anger in their hearts was not less at all.

The prince and Gongsun Yi stood aside, there was no communication between the two, and the noise above the court had nothing to do with them, they still didn't say anything, but the prince's fists were clenched, and he wanted to kill Gongsun Yi immediately.
