Chapter 191: Bow to the Lord
Liu Qingshao was not interested in these things, she just wanted to help Xiao Hanyin meet the prince as soon as possible.
For this reason, Liu Qingshao immediately went over with Xiao Hanyin, who was disguised as his own servant, in the name of going to Xianhe Tower to eat.
When she got there, she asked for a private room.
Xiao Hanyin waited for a while, then gave Liu Qingshao a look, and then immediately went out.
Xianhelou is not a simple restaurant, Xiao Han is afraid that the wall has ears, so he plans to secretly go to the shopkeeper and ask the shopkeeper to send a message to the prince.
However, Liu Qingshao took his hand and said, "I'll do this, you wait for me in the private room!" ”
Liu Qingshao knew that he wanted to save people, but with his identity, he really couldn't come forward, even if he was currently his own little servant......
Xiao Hanyin thought about it, and finally agreed to her, but insisted on going with her.
He couldn't let Liu Qingshao be in the slightest danger.
Liu Qingshao saw that he was resolute, so she had no choice but to take him to find the shopkeeper.
"I am the owner of Chef Liu's restaurant, and I want to negotiate with your owner about something, please be sure to send this letter to him!" Liu Qingshao revealed her identity.
She made an appointment to meet the prince as the owner of the restaurant, and others would not think much about it even if they knew.
After all, few people know that the master behind the Crane Tower is the crown prince.
"The little one will definitely hand over the girl's letter to our host!" After the shopkeeper learned of Liu Qingshao's identity, his brows furrowed slightly, but he finally took the letter in her hand.
Now, Chef Liu's restaurant is on fire in the imperial city, and she suddenly asks to meet their master, most likely for business.
The shopkeeper couldn't be the master, so he decided to send the letter to the prince, as for whether he would like to see Liu Qingshao, it depends on her creation, after all, their master is not something that everyone can see......
After the prince received the news, he was very excited, he knew about Liu Qingshao's coming to the imperial city to open a shop.
However, he has never shown up, after all, his identity may bring danger to Liu Qingshao at any time, and he doesn't know if Xiao Hanyin is with her.
The prince has always wanted to see Xiao Hanyin again, but unfortunately something happened to the Xiao family, and it was not good for him to come forward to him directly.
After all, if he shows up at this time, he will be discovered.
He didn't want Xiao Hanyin to encounter danger, so he kept enduring it.
Now, Liu Qingshao asked him as the owner of the restaurant, and he must have something important to tell him, how could the prince not go to the appointment......
When the shopkeeper saw the prince in disguise, he was very shocked.
He didn't expect that the prince would really be willing to come and see Liu Qingshao and them.
"Master, Miss Liu is already waiting for you in the private room!" The shopkeeper himself took him to the private room where the secrecy was very secretive.
This private room was specially set up for the crown prince, and when he came over occasionally, he would sit in the private room......
"Your Highness!" When Liu Qingshao and Xiao Hanyin saw him, they wanted to salute him.
"No need to be polite, now I am only the owner of the Crane Tower!" The crown prince stopped them.
This place is extremely secretive, and it is the prince's property, so it is also meaningful for them to choose to meet here.
"Han Yin, are you okay?" When the prince saw him, his eyes were full of irrepressible joy.
"Thank you Your Highness for your concern, I'm fine!" Xiao Hanyin could see that the prince was still the same as ever to him, and he did not deliberately alienate him because of the things his father did.
Xiao Yifeng had always supported the second prince before, and against him, Xiao Hanyin was caught in the middle and was in a dilemma.
Now, the Xiao family is in turmoil, the prince's position is stable, and his father has long regretted it and wants to join the prince.
However, Xiao Hanyin was extremely disgusted by his behavior.
He didn't mean it at all, he just wanted to use the prince to leave the prison.
So, Xiao Hanyin rejected him, and never contacted the prince privately, in order not to embarrass the prince.
Now, he had to find the prince for his father's brother's affairs, and Xiao Hanyin felt a little uncomfortable......
"Have you been with Miss Liu all these days?" The prince said, "Why didn't you send me a message when you came to the imperial city?" ”
"Your Highness, I didn't want to look for you, but you also know the situation of the Xiao family now, please forgive me!" Xiao Hanyin said with a smile on his face.
"You and I are like brothers, and I will definitely not ignore this matter!" The crown prince naturally understood his mood at the moment.
"No, I am looking for His Highness today to know about the eldest brother and father, if His Highness is inconvenient to interfere, it will be as if nothing has happened!" Xiao Hanyin didn't want him to run around for the Xiao family's affairs.
"My father has always wanted to suppress the power of the General's Mansion, General Xiao has the power of the army, and he wholeheartedly supports his second brother, and my father wanted to punish him before!" The prince sighed.
"Your Highness, is there room for maneuver in this matter?" Xiao Hanyin knew all these things.
"This time, my father wanted to teach General Xiao a lesson, so I let him go, but things will turn out like this, and my father will naturally not stop there!" The prince was also very helpless.
It's not that he didn't think about saving Xiao Hanchen, after all, it was true that Xiao Yifeng didn't deal with him, but Xiao Hanchen was indeed wronged.
The prince really wanted to save this pillar of talent.
However, someone in the court targeted their father and son, which made the prince quite distressed......
"What happened, why did the emperor's attitude change overnight?" Xiao Hanyin knew that this was the crux of Xiao Hanchen's imprisonment.
"Someone in the court deliberately targeted the Xiao family and wanted to completely eradicate the General's Mansion!" The prince confided the truth.
"Is it the book of the military department?" Liu Qingshao's subordinates have already investigated this matter. Dream life
"That's right, but there is no wind and no waves, General Xiao has indeed done something that displeased his father, and the secretary of the military department also guessed his father's thoughts, so he deliberately set up a situation to frame him!" The crown prince is in the court, so he naturally knows the current situation.
It's not that he didn't think about keeping the Xiao family, after all, although Xiao Yifeng was wrong, his sin was not to death.
"Since my father has done those things, he should bear the consequences, I will never help him intercede, but please Your Highness must save my eldest brother, he is innocent!" He didn't know about the things that Xiao Yifeng did.
"Don't worry, although General Xiao has done a lot of things that make his father angry, his father didn't think about killing him!" The prince understood his intentions.
He has a deep brotherly relationship with Xiao Hanchen, so he is naturally reluctant to let him have an accident.
What's more, Xiao Hanchen was indeed implicated this time, and the prince wanted to protect him early on.
However, the emperor was angry, and it was not good for him to intercede directly for Xiao Hanchen.
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your confession!" Knowing that they would not worry about their lives, Xiao Han secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
If fame, fortune and wealth are gone, you can find a way to make a comeback, as long as your life is still there, everything can start again.
Xiao Yifeng just can't see through this, so he has this catastrophe......
"After I return to the palace, I will definitely find a way to protect your father and brother, but the evidence of the crimes handed over to my father by the secretary of the military department needs to be investigated by yourself, if you can find out the flaws, the Xiao family will be able to get through the difficulties!" The prince was powerless on the matter.
Although he really wanted to help Xiao Hanyin, due to the restrictions of his identity, there were some things that he really didn't want to check directly.
Otherwise, if the emperor knew, he would definitely suspect that he had a secret relationship with the Xiao family.
The emperor is getting older, and his suspicions are getting heavier and heavier.
It's not good for the prince to meddle in these things, otherwise he would have been a celebrity to check before.
"Your Highness has already helped us a lot, Han Yin is grateful!" He respectfully saluted the prince.
"You and I don't have to be polite, and I don't want anything to happen to the Xiao family!" Even though Xiao Yifeng had stumbled him a lot before, Xiao Hanyin and the two brothers had been secretly helping him.
The prince saw the face of the two brothers, and did not intend to settle the past with him.
After they met, Xiao Hanyin learned some clues from the prince's mouth.
These are all things that the prince took the initiative to tell them.
The things that the prince is not easy to do can only be handed over to them to do.
He believed that with Xiao Hanyin and Liu Qingshao's abilities, he would definitely be able to find out who the person who really wanted to frame the Xiao family was.
The Xiao family is a famous family in the imperial city, and their power should not be underestimated, which is also the reason why the emperor wants Xiao Yifeng's military power......
After Xiao Hanyin solemnly thanked the prince, he left with Liu Qingshao.
The crown prince couldn't stay long, and soon after they left, he also returned to the palace with his henchmen secret guard.
After returning home, Liu Qingshao immediately arranged for people to investigate the matter.
At first, they put all their thoughts on the body of the military department Shangshu, after all, if he hadn't come up with those so-called incriminating evidence, the emperor would have let Xiao Hanchen go.
Xiao Hanyin felt that this person was the key to everything, and the clues given by the prince were also related to the military department.
However, after a few days of checking, they never got the results they wanted.
"Ah Yin, I think there must be someone behind this military department book!" They have the prince's secret help, but they still can't find his flaws.
Liu Qingshao felt that there must be something strange in it.
"Hmm!" Xiao Hanyin not only noticed that the military department was doing things for people, but that person's background must be not small.
The person who can make the military department secretary bow down to him is very likely to be a member of the royal family.
After Xiao Hanyin and Liu Qingshao glanced at each other, they instantly had a guess in their hearts.
So, they changed the direction of their investigation.
Liu Qingshao ordered people to keep an eye on the military department, wanting to know who he had dealings with in private.
The stakes are very high, and there must not be the slightest sloppiness.
After two days, Liu Qingshao's subordinates finally found out who was behind the military department's book.
"How could it be him?" Xiao Hanyin was shocked when he learned the result.
After all, he had been away from the imperial city for so long, and he had never intersected with the other party during this period, but the other party was bent on killing him and the Xiao family.
It turned out that he was the one who wanted to kill Xiao Hanyin all along.
This person is the emperor's cousin, known as King Qing.
"He has a grudge against you?" Liu Qingshao noticed the abnormality in his eyes.
"Nope!" Because of this, Xiao Hanyin was surprised.
When he was in the Imperial City, he didn't have any grudges against this person.
Why did he want to kill himself at all costs as soon as he returned to the Imperial City?
This time, I took a lot of trouble to do so many things, wanting to bring down the Xiao family.
"If you had no grudges, he wouldn't have done this!" Liu Qingshao always felt that they should have overlooked something.
The other party tried his best to get rid of everyone in the Xiao family, except for the enmity between each other, Liu Qingshao couldn't think of any other reason.
"I will continue to investigate this matter!" He has been away from the imperial city for so long, but the other party is bent on killing him, which shows how deep his hatred for the Xiao family is.
