Although Zhou Yun tried his best to conceal it, the bloody case of Lecheng Wangfu still spread.

In the teahouse restaurant in Jinling City, some people gathered together and talked about things.

One said that he saw a corpse being lifted out of the corner gate of the Lecheng Palace, and it took half an hour.

The other said that the Huyuan was a spy of the Chu people, because King Le Cheng and his wife killed the crown prince of Chu and recaptured Linzhou Mansion, and the Chu people wanted to retaliate.

There is even a saying that King Le Cheng and the princess were held hostage by traitors as soon as they returned to the palace, and the medical hall in the south of the palace hid the spies of the Chu people. Later, the hospital ran out of water, and dozens of lives were lost.

As everyone was talking, they saw an old man sighing for a long time: "It is said that it is difficult to prevent thieves day and night, poor Princess Lecheng is still pregnant, and she is not at peace, what a sin." You are all wrong, it is not the revenge of the Chu people at all, our Great Zhou city is the most tightly defended, and the people of Chu can't enter at all, let alone go to the Lecheng Palace? ”

"And who do you say?" The crowd immediately surrounded the old man.

"Who it is, Lao Yu doesn't know, Lao Yu only knows that the doctor in Gongnan's medical hall is the apprentice of Imperial Doctor Li. This Imperial Physician Li was recommended by Prime Minister Li Cheng to enter the palace. From the construction of the Yongle Royal Mansion to the selection of people, it was all handled by His Royal Highness the Prince......" After the old man finished speaking, he sighed and got up and left.

"Could it be that Prime Minister Li Cheng and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince joined forces to harm King Lecheng?"

"What a team, they were originally a family! Isn't Prime Minister Li's granddaughter the crown princess? ”

"Yes! No wonder His Royal Highness the Crown Prince married a concubine in such a hurry. ”

"Isn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on the expedition?"

"I still took the newlywed princess on the expedition together. I didn't hear from him after I set out, and I don't know where I went......"

"Don't go on a fake expedition, it's true to frame King Lecheng. Do you think, King Le Cheng is famous, and he has made military exploits, and he is married to the princess of South Korea, who is a perfect match, can His Royal Highness the Crown Prince not be in a hurry......

A lot of times that's how it is, once someone starts a start, the news can't stop.

Within three days, the news about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's intention to kill King Le Cheng was clear-sighted and clear-sighted.

Around the Lecheng Palace, as well as around the burned out medical hall in Gongnan, there were inexplicably more pairs of snooping eyes.

Even the military officials of the early dynasty couldn't stop talking about it.

Prime Minister Li Cheng was surrounded by some ministers who did not have a good relationship on weekdays before entering the court.

"Prime Minister Li, have you been out these days, have you heard about it outside?"

Prime Minister Li naturally heard about it, but at this time he could only pretend to be confused: "What words?" ”

"Prime Minister Li doesn't know? That's not going to work. As the prime minister, it is the will of heaven to go down, and the people's feelings are inspected, and the outside is said to be upside down, you don't know, isn't it a dereliction of duty......"

"Prime Minister Li, you really should go out for a walk, you can't stay in your Prime Minister's Mansion all the time, you don't know anything about the people, how can you share your worries for the monarch?"

"Prime Minister Li Cheng has received a letter from his granddaughter, they have been gone for a while, and it is not far from the Western Capital......

In the face of everyone's condemnation, Prime Minister Li Cheng always took advantage of his calm face and did not say a word.

It wasn't until Emperor Zhou went to the court that everyone returned to the throne and saluted, and Prime Minister Li was able to breathe.

After sitting down, Emperor Zhou looked around at the crowd, and then let out a leisurely sigh: "The theme of today's court meeting is about the remarks of the crown prince and Prime Minister Li Cheng about the murder of King Lecheng. You all speak your own opinions, what are the ways to deal with it! Come one by one! Prime Minister Li, come first! ”

What Emperor Zhou said was rhetoric.

It's rhetoric!

And not rumors, rumors, or rumors.

Prime Minister Li immediately knelt down: "Your Majesty, the old minister has been wronged......."

This early dynasty did not disperse from dawn until dark.

After dark, in the Fengyi Palace, the queen sent someone to call Zhou Yun and Han Yue over again.

"Yun'er, Yue'er." The queen sighed, "The crown prince is indeed at fault. But you see that he is leading the army outside, can you wait for him to come back and then punish him? ”

"What do you mean, Queen Mother?" Zhou Yun looked innocent, "Yun'er has been in the palace for the past few days, Han Yue and I haven't even left the door, what have we done?" ”

"Outside......" the queen sighed, "Gonggong Qu has already come over a few times to spread the word, and the court is crazy." Especially King Wucheng, who is still in the imperial city, is the abolished prince who is happy to become the king. Maybe you don't know it, but your father's other brothers in the fief have also sent a message asking your father to abolish the crown prince and become king in the past two days. ”

"Yun'er!" The queen sighed again, "I know that you husband and wife have been wronged. But if you really abolish your eldest brother, it will shake the foundation of the country. The Great Zhou Dynasty has always passed on the eldest son. If you abolish your eldest brother, what about your father's position? Which of your imperial uncles is a fuel-efficient lamp? ”

Zhou Yun didn't speak, and Han Yue also nodded and stroked his lower abdomen.

"Yun'er!" The queen sighed again, "This matter still needs to be clarified by you." The queen mother promises you that your eldest brother will never attack you again. ”

"Queen Mother!" Zhou Yunyi looked up at the queen and said, "What if Yue'er was killed that day?" How can the sons live? With this incident, me and my eldest brother and I can't go back! Even if I come forward to clarify, my eldest brother may not appreciate it. How can the queen mother guarantee that he will not attack us and his wife for a long time? ”

The queen let out a sigh: "Then what do you mean?" Are you really going to abolish your big brother? Even if you abolish your eldest brother, you still have a second brother above you. Isn't it possible to get rid of your second brother too? Zhou Yun, tell the truth to the queen mother, did you fall in love with that position? ”

Zhou Yun looked at the queen.

The queen stared at Zhou Yun.

After looking at it like this for a long time, Zhou Yun shook his head lightly: "No wonder the eldest brother wants to harm me, does even the queen mother think that Yun'er has a crush on that position?" Queen mother? Yun'er tells you that since she was a child, Yun'er has never thought about that position. Even if he saw a room full of corpses, even if the next one he saw was Yun'er's wife and children, even if his father avoided Yun'er afterwards, Yun'er never thought of asking for that position! Why does even the queen mother think so? ”

The queen hurriedly said: "Didn't you put the rumors outside?" ”

"It's not!" Han Yue said on the side, "If we don't hide it from our mother, we really want to do this, but considering that it is easy to mess with people's hearts, it is difficult to stabilize people's hearts." Besides, the eldest brother is leading 100,000 generals outside, and punishing him at this moment is only afraid of causing a mutiny, but fortunately, Han Yue and the child have a big life, and in the end, Zhou Yun and I decided that as long as the prince no longer attacks us in the future, we will let him go again. As for the remarks outside, the queen mother can send someone to investigate. Not many people know about me and Zhou Yun being held hostage when we returned to the palace, and it is not difficult to investigate. But the queen mother Han Yue thought that the most important thing at this moment was to appease the prince's heart, presumably he should also know the rumors. I am most afraid of ghosts knocking on the door when I do something wrong. ”
