Chapter 192: The Emperor is suspicious

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Chang has come down." Gonggong Li stepped forward to pray.

Emperor Liang Qin couldn't help but be stunned, since he sent King Chang to guard the Linchuan Mansion for several months, it is rumored that he has been back for some time, but he has never come to visit, nor has he been in the early court, and he has always claimed that he is ill, why is he here now?

After thinking for a moment, Emperor Liang Qin immediately beckoned to Gonggong Li: "Let him come in." ”

Gonggong Li received the order, and then brought people in.

After a while, I saw King Chang appear in front of Emperor Liang Qin, and respectfully saluted him: "The son of the emperor saw his father, the son returned to Shengjing City in Linchuan Mansion half a month ago, and he should have come to visit his father early in the morning, but he was unfortunate and dragged on until today, and I ask my father to forgive me." ”

Looking at the appearance of King Chang today, although he is still not as calm as the prince, he has lost his unruly posture and no one in his eyes, and it seems that this trip to Lin Chuan Mansion did not let him stay in vain.

Emperor Liang Qin let King Chang calm down, and asked him with concern: "I don't know how the emperor's health is?" ”

King Chang smiled and responded to Emperor Liang Qin: "Thank you for your father's concern, my son is now fine." ”

Emperor Liang Qin nodded: "It's okay." ”

After being silent for a moment, he turned to King Chang and asked, "What did the emperor gain from going to Linchuan Mansion this time?" ”

King Chang smiled when he heard this, as if he had expected Emperor Liang Qin's question early on, and he was about to tell Emperor Liang Qin the answer he had prepared early in the morning, but when the words came to his mouth, he showed embarrassment.

After all, King Chang is Emperor Liang Qin's biological flesh and blood, and he has grown up beside him since he was a child.

He then frowned and looked at King Chang: "But what is unspeakable?" ”

When King Chang heard this, he still hesitated: "This ...... I'm afraid it will be offensive to say it, and my son really doesn't know how to talk to his father. ”

But the more he hung people's appetites like this, the more Emperor Liang Qin wanted to know what kind of words King Chang was pushing in his heart.

He then asked King Chang with an angry face: "If you have anything to say, just say it, I forgive you for your innocence." ”

After receiving this gold medal for avoiding death, King Chang told Emperor Liang Qin what he said in his heart: "His father, the emperor, and his sons are in Linchuan Mansion, and they often hear the people praise the emperor's uncle. ”

Hearing King Chang's answer, Emperor Liang Qin breathed a sigh of relief: "What's so hard to say about this, why have you been hiding it for so long?" ”

But before Emperor Liang Qin's breath sank to the end, King Chang looked at him with that cautious expression again.

But in addition, some people even said......" King Chang deliberately said halfway through his words, and then fell silent, which aroused Emperor Liang Qin's curiosity again: "Say what?" ”

"Say, say that Uncle Huang, His Royal Highness, is more courageous than his father, and that Uncle Huang may be more capable of the heavy responsibility of assisting the world than his father." King Chang pretended to be frightened and said.

Emperor Liang Qin was instantly angry, and then the case rose, as a king of all dynasties, the most taboo thing is to hear these questions from the mouths of the people to question their own ability, especially not to listen to another person compared with themselves.

Besides, Emperor Liang Qin was already quite jealous of Gu Huanli in his heart, for fear that one day his merits would overshadow him, but now what he was worried about came out of his son's mouth like this, and Emperor Liang Qin didn't know how to vent his anger for a while.

Trying to calm himself down, Emperor Liang Qin gritted his teeth and asked King Chang, "Is this true?" ”

King Chang hesitated: "My father is angry, and my sons and ministers just heard about it by chance, where do those people know about the royal family?" Most of them are also casual discussions, and the father doesn't have to take it to heart. ”

King Chang's words sounded like he was relieved for Emperor Liang Qin, but smart people could hear it, he just wanted to tell Emperor Liang Qin that these words were not only true, but also heard by him with his own ears.

Emperor Liang Qin has always been sensitive and good-looking, so he naturally understood the meaning of King Chang's words, and he was very anxious for a while.

Gu Huanli has indeed made outstanding achievements in the past few years, and later Lu Xuan made a name for him everywhere, and his image of fierceness and cruelty in the minds of the people was also changed by the style of caring for the world.

Even the recent comments of the ministers of the court and the central government on him are much better than before, which makes Emperor Liang Qin have to wonder if Gu Huanli is suspected of forming a party for personal gain.

It is common for princes to form parties and expand their own power, after all, Emperor Liang Qin himself is also a person from the past, and he can also be considerate.

Therefore, as long as the actions of the princes are harmless, he will turn a blind eye, and his throne will be handed over to one of them sooner or later.

But Gu Huanli, as a prince, has no chance to fight for the throne, if he also forms a party for personal gain, it is a bad plot, Emperor Liang Qin must not look at the Jiangshan Sheji that he has worked so hard to win, and then be robbed by him.

Seeing the angry look on Emperor Liang Qin's face, King Chang immediately took the opportunity to fan the flames, he pretended to be relieved for Emperor Liang Qindi on the surface, but all he said was worried about Gu Huanli's rebellion-

"Father, Uncle Huang has indeed made outstanding achievements over the years, and all forces have also taken refuge in our court because of him, but Erchen thinks that everything Uncle Huang has done is just for the sake of my Liang's country, and my father really doesn't have to destroy the brotherhood between him and Uncle Huang because of a few gossips from the people."

King Chang deliberately spoke for Gu Huanli and blamed him for the reason why all forces defected to the Liang Dynasty, which made Emperor Liang Qin have to wonder whether it was him Liang Dynasty or Gu Huanli himself who took refuge in the various forces.

Even his own son spoke for Gu Huanli, so his demagogic ability had to make Emperor Liang Qin defensive.

If Gu Huanli continued to expand his power outside under the pretense of the royal family of the Liang Dynasty, then over the years, it was hard for Emperor Liang Qin to imagine how far his current power had reached.

But Emperor Liang Qin was still jealous of Gu Huanli in his heart, so even in front of his son, he couldn't show his suspicions, so he had to forcibly pretend to be open-minded and nodded towards King Chang:

"The emperor has really grown up, and he has been so clear about right and wrong, and his father is very pleased."

Although Emperor Liang Qin said so, King Chang knew him better than anyone else, and naturally knew that he was just forcibly pretending to be generous in order to prevaricate himself.

In short, King Chang's goal of framing Gu Huanli had been achieved, and he was not in a hurry to break through Emperor Liang Qin's disguise, and then leaned down towards him: "Thank you for your father's praise." ”

At that time, Emperor Liang Qin was already sitting on pins and needles on the dragon chair that he had always felt comfortable, and he immediately rushed to send King Chang away:

"The emperor can make such progress, I am very happy in my heart, but the emperor is recovering from a serious illness, I am afraid it is really not suitable to stay here for a long time, the body is important, if the emperor has nothing to report, go back to recuperate first."

King Chang received the order and immediately retired.

was just halfway through, but he met Gonggong Li who came to report head-on.

King Chang couldn't help but slow down, wanting to listen to who found Emperor Liang Qin again, for fear that what he had just said would fall short.

I only heard Gonggong Li step forward and report to Emperor Liang Qin: "Your Majesty, the envoy of Fusi Zhenfu of Dongchang North Town has come to ask for a meeting." ”

Hearing this, King Chang couldn't help but fall into a burst of thought: Luo Mingrang? What is he doing here, isn't it that my father was already suspicious of Uncle Huang long before I met him today, and specially sent someone to investigate him?

Of course, King Chang is just guessing, after all, as the secret cabinet of Emperor Liang Qin, what Dongchang Beizhen Fusi investigates is generally related to the national fortune and people's livelihood, and this envoy is deeply trusted by Emperor Liang Qin and rarely appears in front of people.

This time, Emperor Liang Qin even dispatched him, and it seems that it is really not small to investigate the origin of this person.

With such a guess, King Chang really wanted to hear what Emperor Liang Qin and this pacification envoy had to say, but after all, this was the palace and the emperor's bedroom, and it was really unruly to eavesdrop.

Therefore, King Chang could only endure the curiosity in his heart and leave, until he ran into Luo Mingrang when he went out, and the other party only looked at him indifferently for a moment, but did not salute him.

King Chang was simply annoyed: I haven't seen him for many years, why is this guy still so blind, relying on the trust of his father, he is really lawless.

However, at the moment, Luo Mingrang may be in the same boat as King Chang, thinking that he may be able to contribute to the elimination of Gu Huanli, so King Chang also swallowed this anger and didn't care about him.

But to be honest, based on the impression that King Chang has always had in Emperor Liang Qin's heart, it is estimated that even if he wants to deal with Luo Mingrang, he does not have the ability.

Luo Mingrang directly skipped King Chang, and then walked into the main hall: "Minister Luo Mingrang to see Your Majesty." ”

Seeing Luo Mingrang come in, Emperor Liang Qin hurriedly asked him to calm down, and then ordered Gonggong Li to withdraw everyone in the palace, leaving only himself and Luo Mingrang.

When there was no one around, Liang Qinzhi walked to Luo Mingrang's side with a sigh of relief: "You came just in time, I just have something I want to hand over to you to investigate." ”

Luo Mingrang leaned down calmly: "Your Majesty just orders." ”

Emperor Liang Qin pondered for a moment before he spoke: "I heard that there have been rumors among the people recently that the fierce king is in power and has seized power, so I want to ask Aiqing to go and help me investigate thoroughly. ”

Luo Mingrang was stunned when he heard this: "Your Majesty also suspects His Royal Highness the Fierce King?" ”

Although Emperor Liang Qin trusted Luo Mingrang very much, after all, there was a difference between monarchs and ministers, and when such a sentence came out of his mouth, Emperor Liang Qin, as the Ninth Five-Year Emperor, still couldn't respond too hastily.

After pondering for a while, Emperor Liang Qin shook his head: "I and the fierce king are close siblings, so naturally I will not be suspicious of him, but most of these rumors are not good for his reputation, and I also want to find out as soon as possible, so as to restore his innocence, so as not to sow discord between the royal brothers with ulterior motives." ”
