The fifth prince took Qingyu through several alleys, but he didn't say a word during the period, just looked around lightly, and couldn't guess what he was thinking.

Qingyu finally couldn't help it, and said again: "Lord Wang, what are you doing here?" Shopping? ”

When the fifth prince heard this, he immediately turned his head to look at Qingyu, and said seriously: "What is special about these streets you just passed?" ”

Qingyu frowned slightly, and looked around blankly, what is so special about these streets? Aren't all businesses doing business with their doors open? The only strange thing is that these streets are rarely crowded with pedestrians, as if they are not very popular, and they are not as lively as other streets.

Qingyu shook her head, her face showing puzzlement.

"These streets are the prince's property, mainly from the gambling houses for a living, but the daily silver taels, is not a small amount, you say, if something happens to these gambling houses, how will the prince react?"

The fifth prince no longer went around in circles, and went straight to the point.

When Qingyu heard this, her face suddenly changed, and she squeezed her eyebrows at the fifth prince and said, "Does the prince want to do something from the prince's estate?" But you can't show up in person, do you? Then you ......"

"You don't need this king to go, someone will deal with it, you just have to watch the play!"

The fifth prince said confidently.

Subsequently, the two found a teahouse, drank tea, and observed the situation of one of the gambling houses.

According to the fifth prince, this is the head office of the gambling house, and if something happens, the prince will definitely appear as soon as possible.

Everything is normal in the gambling house, and there is nothing unusual, except that people are often seen coming and going, some are depressed, some are elated, and this look is the difference between winning and losing.

Qingyu was eating while paying attention to the situation, but she didn't see any movement for a long time, she couldn't help but speak: "Lord Wang, what is your plan?" Isn't it a failure? ”

The fifth prince drank tea slowly, not worried about the situation outside at all, and even reminded Qingyu not to be impatient.

Qingyu had to suppress the emotions in her heart and continued to wait quietly.

At this moment, one person was suddenly knocked out of the gambling house below, and then four or five thugs rushed out of the gambling hall and punched and kicked the man on the ground, and it didn't take long for the man on the ground to stop.

But the people in the gambling house were not worried at all, but went directly into the gambling house, and no one came out again.

The figure lying on the ground was beaten and covered in blood and dying, but no one stepped forward to save anyone.

Seeing this, Qingyu couldn't help but whisper: "It seems that something happened below, was that person killed?" ”

The fifth prince raised his eyes slightly, his calm eyes swept the street below, and said lightly: "I'm not dead, I'm still angry!" ”

"Aren't you going to save people?" Qingyu was puzzled.

The fifth prince frowned slightly, and said puzzledly: "Why did this king want to save it?" It wasn't the king's doing! ”

Qing Yumo, that's right, if the fifth prince is so kind, can he still live until now?

The most ruthless is the emperor's family.

"You want to save him?" Seeing that Qingyu was no longer silent, the fifth prince spoke again, and his complicated eyes fell on her.

Qingyu's face was flat, and she said coldly: "This has nothing to do with me!" ”

Hearing this, the fifth prince couldn't help but chuckle lightly, and retracted his gaze with satisfaction.

It can be seen that Qingyu's attitude makes him very satisfied, he doesn't like bad people, and he doesn't like people to meddle in things.

The man outside the gambling hall died not long after, and the body was lying outside the gambling hall like this, no one cared about it.

After about half an hour, a man and a woman approached slowly, and when they saw the body, they burst into tears.

This movement soon alarmed the people in the gambling house, but only a few thugs were sent out to drive people out, but gradually more and more people watched, and the thugs saw that the situation was not right, and immediately went to report.

At this time, the person in charge came out, and saw the man and woman sitting in front of the corpse crying, frowning, walking forward with a calm face, and whispering, "What are you doing here?" How did the crying come here? Do you know what this place is? ”

Hearing this, the man and woman were not afraid at all, but shouted loudly: "What place? Isn't this a gambling house? You just make money, why do you still kill, why? You have paid for my son's life! ”

The man and woman were a couple, and it was their son who died.

At this time, the onlookers whispered one after another, the Yuelang City gambling house is very dark, this is something that everyone knows, but no one dares to say it so directly, after all, there are still their customers among these people.

As soon as the person in charge heard this, he immediately reprimanded: "Nonsense, our gambling house is open for business, how can it still kill people?" ”

"It's what you killed, is there any heavenly reason, is there any royal law!"

The woman wailed again and again.

At this time, the street was already surrounded by many people, and the road was seriously blocked.

At this time, the second prince who was patrolling passed by here and encountered this incident.

The couple kept yelling and bullying people, the second prince stepped forward with a calm face, and briefly inquired about the situation, and the person in charge recognized the second prince, so he immediately approached and said: "Second prince, these two people are deliberately making trouble, you quickly drive people away!" ”

The second prince was silent, just nodded slightly, after all, it was the prince's property, and he didn't want to make a big deal about it.

But at this time, the man suddenly said, "Second Prince, you will definitely make the decision for us, right?" Don't be fooled by them, or you won't be able to get out of it then! ”

When the second prince heard this, his face suddenly sank, and he said sharply: "Are you threatening this king? ”

At the same time, there was a whispered discussion in the crowd.

"It seems that this matter will not be resolved again, and the second prince is not going to speak for the gambling house!"

"Hmph, what a prince, but it's all about silver!"

……

Those discussions are very loud, and they are all aimed at the second prince, the image of the second prince has always been upright, not the right thing, not the right person, if this matter is not handled well today, I am afraid that it will have a great impact on him.

I saw that the second prince pondered for a moment, and then said: "In this matter, this king will let the government intervene in the investigation, and during this period, the gambling house will be suspended!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the couple hurriedly thanked them.

But the person in charge of the gambling house stretched his face, glanced at the second prince coldly, and then said in a low voice: "Prince, are you sure you want to do this?" Don't you need to inform Your Highness in advance? ”

The second prince's expression was cold, and he said expressionlessly: "In this matter, this king will explain to the prince that you don't manage your subordinates well, and now that something happens, you can solve it well!" ”

The man didn't dare to squeak anymore, but just glared at the second prince fiercely.

After that, the second prince asked his guards to send them to the yamen, while he alone rushed to other places.

Soon, calm returned to the streets, as if nothing had happened.

Qingyu retracted her gaze with some unfinished eyes, and then looked at the fifth prince in puzzlement, and said, "This is the end?" Running out of fun? ”

The fifth prince smiled without saying a word, but the smile on his face continued to deepen.

"Could it be that the second prince will offend the crown prince, and then the relationship between the two will become tense? I'm afraid not! Qing Yuwu whispered to herself, and for a while, she was a little skeptical about whether the Fifth Prince's plan was feasible.

"Who said to strain their relationship? This king just wants to see how the prince will react if the second prince is not controlled! ”

The fifth prince said slowly.

Hearing this, Qingyu was also interested, and couldn't help urging: "Then shouldn't we change places?" You can't see it here! ”

"Where?" The fifth prince asked rhetorically.

Qingyu thought for a while and said, "Of course it's to follow the second prince, and he hasn't gone far yet!" ”

The smile on the corner of the fifth prince's mouth grew, and he said unhurriedly: "Someone has already gone, so you can wait for the news with peace of mind!" ”

Qingyu glanced at the fifth prince in surprise, the look in his eyes changed again and again, he had already arranged it, but she was in a hurry there!

Prince's Mansion.

The second prince came to the door in person, without a retinue with him, and when he appeared in the prince's mansion, he went in directly without reporting.

Den.

The prince was reading a book, and when he saw the second prince coming, the prince immediately put down the book in his hand, and then chuckled: "Why are you here?" Something to do with Prince Ben? ”

The second prince nodded, and then said: "Your Highness, something happened to your gambling house and someone died, so I will let them close their business and cooperate with the investigation!" ”

Hearing this, the prince's face suddenly stiffened, and his yin eyes swept over the second prince, and then he said sharply: "Who let you call the shots without permission?" Did Prince Ben agree? ”

The second prince bowed slightly, and explained: "At that time, if I didn't deal with the situation, the people would not give up, and His Royal Highness didn't want the matter to reach the emperor's ears!" ”

"Shut up, so Prince Ben should still thank you? Have you forgotten who you are? Without the permission of Prince Ben, you dare to make decisions on your own, are you becoming less and less concerned about Prince Ben? ”

The prince had a cold face, and the anger all over his body was terrifying.

However, when the second prince faced the prince's anger, he was neither angry nor annoyed, but just stood quietly aside, no matter how the prince reprimanded, he didn't say a word.

"You should deal with this matter quickly, and besides, Prince Ben wants to let the gambling house resume business!"

The crown prince ordered in a cold voice.

The second prince frowned slightly, and was embarrassed: "Your Highness, I'm afraid this is ......."

"I'm afraid of what? This prince is not asking for your opinion, he is ordering you! The prince grimled and roared.

The second prince opened his mouth, wanting to justify, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them alive.

"Yes!"

In the end, the second prince retreated silently, and after going out, he paused outside the study for a moment, and quickly removed the look on his face before striding away.

Immediately after the door was opened, the prince walked out with a gloomy face, and said coldly: "Someone! ”

"Your Highness, please command!"

One of the guards immediately stepped forward and said respectfully.

The crown prince stared at the direction in which the second prince left, and said in a deep voice: "Send someone to keep an eye on him, and come back immediately to report any moves." ”
