This time, the emperor was really a dragon-faced Dayue, sitting on the dragon chair, and frequently praised Duan Ling.

Even, even the reward given to Duan Ling was unprecedentedly heavy.

Although Lin Liang said that he came back with Duan Ling, because of the long journey, his body was a little unbearable.

Duan Ling cared about her and took the initiative to let Lin Liang stay in the prince's mansion.

"Anyway, this celebration banquet is not in a hurry, and it will be just a bunch of people drinking at that time, so you will not be happy when you go."

"That's what I thought too." Lin Liang's face was a little pale, but he was still next to Duan Ling, dressing him in the clothes he needed to wear to the court on weekdays.

"But don't drink too much, that's pretty much it."

"I know I'll be back in the evening. Yuzhu, a good student serving the crown princess. ”

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, please rest assured!" Yuzhu nodded neatly, and then helped Lin Liang to take a bath and rest.

Duan Ling returned from a great victory, so some ministers in the court moved their minds.

After all, there is only one crown princess among the crown princesses under His Royal Highness the crown prince, and there are still several vacant positions for this side concubine.

Therefore, they all sent their daughters, who were quite good-looking at home, into the palace.

Although Duan Ling had been drinking with various ministers who toasted him, he refused coldly to the beauties who came to give him a hug, and he didn't even look at them.

Seeing that the banquet had finally come to an end, most of the ministers were drunk and were picked up by the family members.

Although Duan Ling's eyes looked a little drowsy, his thinking was still clear in the end, and he deliberately followed the emperor and came to the Taiji Palace.

"I know you have something to say, so let's talk about it. As long as it's not too demanding, I promise you. ”

"Back to my father, my son doesn't want any reward, but I want my father to give my son a chance to thoroughly investigate the interception of his request for help that day."

"What do you mean?" The emperor's face turned cloudy.

"On that day, as soon as the person sent by Lin Liang to ask me for help arrived in the city, I had already let him lead the army over, why was it delayed for a full fifteen days?"

This is exactly what Erchen wants to investigate thoroughly. If Liang'er hadn't thought of a way at that time, the army would not have been able to hold out at the moment when they could wait for reinforcements. ”

The emperor's face was a little unkind: "I will hand over this matter to Dali Siqing to assist you in handling it together, no matter who the final investigation results point to, it will be severely punished!" ”

"Yes! Thank you, Father! ”

After Duan Ling returned to the Prince's Mansion that day, Dali Siqing was the first to arrive in the Mansion.

Duan Ling saw that Lin Liang had indeed fallen asleep well under the care of Xiaofeng and Yuzhu, so he was relieved to talk to Dali Siqing in the study for half the night.

Only then did he go back to the room and hugged Lin Liang and fell into a deep sleep.

Dali Siqing rose step by step, from the most ordinary official, so he has his own unique style of handling cases.

When it comes to finding out about things, it is also extremely resolute.

In just a short period of half a month, a lot of information about the day's request for help was intercepted halfway.

In addition, the person was still alive at that time, so he naturally knew that the two people that the fifth prince had allocated to him were problematic, and all the evidence pointed to the five princes.

"Your Majesty, the following is all evidence collected by Wei Chen. These all point to the fact that the people sent by the crown princess at that time asked them to go to the capital to ask for help, but they were actually mistakenly fallen by the people of the five princes, which delayed for a long time. ”

"It turned out to be the fifth child." The emperor smiled coldly, but anyone could see that the emperor was extremely unhappy at this moment.

"Now the fifth child is still in the fiefdom, right?"

"Yes, the fifth prince is still in the fiefdom." Dali Temple Qing respectfully replied.

"Since this matter implicates him, then I order you to immediately take people to the fiefdom of the fifth child and bring them back!"

"Yes, Weichen will go!"

Although the fifth prince has now been relegated to the fiefdom, in the capital, there are still some forces of his mother's family.

After seeing the changes and turmoil in the government and the opposition, and the Dali Siqing frequently entering and leaving the prince's mansion, he was also quite worried, and secretly asked people to pass the news to the thirteen princes.

"Now that my father has asked Dali Temple to handle this matter, has he received the evidence?"

The fifth prince stayed in the palace of his fiefdom, and his face was extremely gloomy.

"Your Royal Highness, the news from Niangniang's side, I'm afraid that the evidence has almost been collected on the Dali Siqing side." The subordinate cautiously replied.

"In that case, what are you waiting for?"

"Fifth Prince, what do you mean?"

The fifth prince suddenly got up from the soft couch and walked around the room a few times anxiously.

For his father, it was a great sin to intercept a soldier who asked for help.

If it weren't for Duan Lingfu's great life this time, then the losses suffered by Da Chu would definitely not be just this.

"If the father sends Dali Siqing to arrest the prince, it will be really difficult!"

"The five princes, where are we going now?"

The eyes of the five princes are a little unkind, at least for now, asking for help from the concubine's family, no, you have to avoid suspicion.

It is even more impossible to worship the moon country, the two sides are obviously opponents.

In this way, among these countries, the only one who had a little friendship with him, and who was more convenient in the past, was the Balmai Dynasty.

"Someone, immediately spread the news of this prince, and give a letter of resignation to Prince Balmai, this prince has something important to find him!"

After being appointed by the emperor, Dali Siqing led his subordinates on the same day and traveled all the way to the fiefdom where the five princes were located.

Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the fiefdom, he found that the palace of the five princes was already empty.

The housekeepers in the Five Princes' Mansion, including the maids and maids, were all there, but the Five Princes and several of his henchmen were nowhere to be found.

"When was the last time the Five Princes appeared in the palace?"

Facing Dali Siqing's questioning, the old housekeeper touched his snow-white beard.

"It was three days ago, His Highness said that there was something important to go out, and the old slave should take care of it in the house."

"Oh? Did the five princes say where they were going? ”

"I don't know this old slave."

Dali Siqing went around and around in the palace of the five princes, and threatened everyone in the palace with coercion and temptation, but still found nothing.

However, Duan Ling's people came with news at this time.

"Dali Siqing must be confused now, I don't know where the five princes are fleeing now, right?"

"Yes, please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to make it clear, I wonder if His Highness has any news?"
