"It's so late, why don't you go back to your room to sleep?" Song Zhao was a little distressed, Gong Tianyao rubbed his eyes, sobered up a lot, and said with a smile: "I want to wait for you to come back, and I fell asleep unconsciously." She scratched her head, looking a little embarrassed.

Seeing her like this, Song Zhao blamed himself even more, and his voice softened in a low voice: "It's me who is not good, and I make you worry." ”

Gong Tianyao hurriedly said: "No, I can't sleep before I come over to take a look." ”

Song Zhao smiled reluctantly: "I'll send you back." ”

"Hmm." Gong Tianyao agreed, and the two went out together. Out of the courtyard gate, Gong Tianyao wanted to speak several times and stopped, Song Zhao saw it in his eyes, in order to reassure her, he said: "Don't worry, my father will not believe those rumors outside, and he has asked me to find out who spread the rumors, and when I catch someone, the matter will be resolved." ”

"Then we have to catch him quickly." When Gong Tianyao heard him say this, she was a little relieved, and only told Song Zhao one sentence, and Song Zhao also nodded: "I already have some eyebrows, and it won't be long before I find out." ”

Back at Zhuyin Courtyard, the two of them stood in front of the door, it was already late at night, Gong Tianyao didn't invite Song Zhao inside, waved his hand, and said, "It's too late, you've been busy for a day, let's go back and rest quickly, see you tomorrow." ”

Song Zhao nodded, watched Gong Tianyao turn around and enter the door to leave. I had a lot of worries along the way, and I didn't go back to my room to rest, but still went to the study to study these unbelievable things that had happened recently.

It wasn't until dawn that he lay down on the table to take a nap, and after a short rest, he got up and changed into court clothes and entered the palace. Because he hadn't slept much all night, his spirit was a little weak, and he walked slower, and people kept coming in front of him, and they would stop and salute when they passed him, Song Zhao just waved his hand and gave way.

Later, Wang Yushi and several colleagues passed by him, and the rest of them stopped for a while to salute the king of Nan'an, only Wang Yushi looked very arrogant, and he didn't even look at Song Zhao, and the companions were a little embarrassed when they saw him like this, and they were about to leave after a few words of greeting, but Wang Yushi only stayed.

Song Zhaoyuan didn't plan to deal with him, and now he just said coldly: "Isn't Wang Yushi still leaving, it's not good to explain to the emperor if it's late." ”

"The lower officials are old, maybe the emperor won't blame them later." Wang Yushi also said meaningfully: "But the prince is not so lucky, do you say?" ”

The atmosphere suddenly became solemn, Song Zhao stared at Wang Yushi, wanting to see something from his expression, but Wang Yushi sneered and brushed his sleeves away.

Song Zhao looked at his back, and the bad premonition in his heart suddenly became stronger.

After going to the court, Wang Yushi suddenly came out of the ranks, took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, and said loudly: "Weichen has important things to do, please take a look at the emperor." ”

Everyone didn't know what was going on, they all stretched their necks to see what was written on the paper in Wang Yushi's hand, Song Zhao's face turned pale for a moment, and he was very shocked.

The father-in-law took the paper and presented it to the emperor, and the emperor saw the content of the paper clearly, and his face changed greatly, and he slapped the case and said angrily: "Ridiculous! ”

Wang Yushi turned his head to look at Song Zhao triumphantly: "King Nan'an, you must be familiar with the names on this piece of paper, right?" Now that the evidence is complete, what else do you have to deny? ”

Song Zhao had already calmed down from the initial panic and shock, turned to Wang Yushi, and his voice was calm: "Lord Wang, what is written on the paper, this king has never read it, how can he know?" ”

Wang Yushi smiled coldly: "Really? ”

The emperor on the dragon chair was furious and shouted, "Let him see!" ”

The eunuch hurriedly picked up the paper and trotted to Song Zhao, Song Zhao took the paper and read it, but still said calmly: "Father, the son has never had this kind of thought, and this matter has nothing to do with the son and son." ”

"Unrelated?" Wang Yushi preemptively said: "It is written in black and white that the king of Nan'an will be elected as the crown prince, don't you know those names, aren't they all your cronies of the king of Nan'an?" ”

"Letters can be forged, anyone can make such so-called evidence casually, how can Lord Wang prove that this is true?" Song Zhao looked into the other party's eyes, calmly.

"If the emperor doesn't believe it, you can compare the handwriting to see if it was written by these people." Wang Yushi's attitude was very firm, and he did not loosen up a little because of Song Zhao's words.

There was a mess underground, and there were many people who were arguing and arguing, and the emperor listened to it, only to feel that one head and two were big, and said angrily: "Don't make any noise!" Let the king of Nan'an say it himself! ”

Song Zhao stepped forward and said, "Father, the son can swear to the heavens that he has never done such a thing." And Erchen also wanted to ask Wang Yushi one thing. ”

The emperor looked at him with some doubts, but in the end he agreed.

Song Zhao turned to Wang Yushi and asked, "I don't know where Lord Wang got this letter?" Wang Yushi knew something that even the king himself didn't know, and he got such an important thing, which really can't help but make people suspicious. ”

"You don't have to worry about this, the lower officials have their own way." Wang Yushi turned sideways and didn't look at Song Zhao, his attitude was very contemptuous. Song Zhao couldn't help but sneer: "If Wang Yushi wants to rebel, will he do this kind of thing blatantly?" How could such an important information easily fall into the hands of others, Wang Yushi held a piece of paper that did not distinguish the authenticity and insisted that this king had different intentions, isn't it too ridiculous? ! ”

"I swear to God, it's true! Do you dare to swear to God that you have never had the intention of plotting to usurp the throne?! ”

"This king dares to swear to the sky, if he has the heart of rebellion, he will be thundered by the sky!"

Wang Yushi glared angrily, staring at Song Zhao's eyes were red, Song Zhao did not give in, and his attitude was very firm, the emperor looked at the two of His Royal Highness's sabre-rattling, and shouted angrily: "Don't quarrel!" Whether this matter is true or not, I will definitely send someone to make it clear, you two will go back to me now, and you must not leave the mansion without my command! ”

Wang Yushi opened his mouth to defend himself, but was interrupted by the emperor sharply: "Not yet?!" The two of them were then taken down by the guards and returned to their respective homes.

After Song Zhao went back, he locked himself in the study, and Gong Tianyao quickly heard about it from Steward Zhao's mouth, and rushed to find him as soon as possible. When the two met, they couldn't help Gong Tianyao to ask again and again, and Song Zhao had no choice but to tell her the truth.

"How so?" Gong Tianyao was also particularly surprised, now it is clear that someone is targeting Song Zhao and wants to put them to death by any means, and now he is under house arrest by the emperor's people in the mansion, and he can't do anything, not to mention that the open gun is easy to dodge, and the hidden arrow is difficult to prevent, who knows what means the other party will use next.

No, you can't sit still, you have to do something! Gong Tianyao had a flash of inspiration, remembering what Gu Yiluo said to her before leaving that day, now is an emergency, and he can only use a dead horse as a live horse doctor, so he said to Song Zhao: "I'll go and beg the owner of Nuan Yu Pavilion to see if he can help us find out the mastermind behind the scenes, I'll go." ”
