Chapter Twenty-Six: Rescue Blocked
"In that case, you will be solely responsible for this case!"
"I will send someone from the Inspectorate to go with you, and I will make sure that the investigation of this case is ......."
As soon as the words fell, some of the courtiers immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly came out and played: "Your Majesty, this matter is not appropriate!" ”
Chu Huangfeng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at the middle-aged man in a red robe under the court and said coldly: "Xu Qing, what's wrong!?" ”
Xu Suining broke out in cold sweat on his forehead, his steps were weak, and he bowed and lowered his eyes: "This big case has been brought out in Jiangling, it can be seen that the public security there is extremely poor, Your Highness, his status is noble, how can he personally go to risk himself?" If there is a good or bad accident...... In the opinion of the minister, if this case is not handled by a governor, why should His Highness go down in person!? ”
"Governor!?"
Emperor Chu hesitated, and after thinking for a moment, he muttered: "What Xu Qing said is not unreasonable, so who should be sent to serve as this governor according to Xu Qing's opinion?" ”
Xu Suining immediately knelt down, and shouted with his hands on the ground: "Minister Xu Suining would rather go to investigate in person, solve problems for my emperor, and give me a good luck!" ”
The righteous words he said were awe-inspiring, and Emperor Chu's eyes moved slightly, and he fell into thought.
Murong Feng's eyebrows frowned slightly, glanced at Xu Suining, who was kneeling on the ground, and stood up again: "Father, this case is serious and the circumstances are bad, and the son is willing to go in person!" I think that since the founding of the country, there have been clear rules and iron laws that are not allowed to be sold, but now even if there are still people who dare to commit crimes in the face of such iron laws, they still specialize in trafficking those children, and the teenagers ......"
He paused, turned around and swept his sharp eagle-like gaze over the kneeling courtiers one by one, and said with a sneer: "I think that if there is no big tree behind those people to shelter them from the wind and rain, how dare they be so rampant!?" ”
"Erchen is not afraid of danger, I only hope to be able to rescue those children who have been sold as soon as possible......"
After Murong Feng finished speaking, he stroked the hem of his clothes and knelt down firmly!
Xu Suining saw that he clearly meant something, and there was something in his words, and he was determined to participate, and he secretly hated it in his heart.
He glanced down at Murong Feng, and said again: "Your Majesty, the third highness wants to make a meritorious contribution to the old minister, but the third highness has never seen it with his own eyes in this case, is it too hasty and arbitrary to speak so badly just on the basis of a letter that he doesn't know where to come, insinuating that I am an official!?" I think that my Dachu people are simple and simple, and they are in the heyday of prosperity, how can it be as the Third Highness said...... Is it so unbearable? ”
Make a difference!?
Xu Suining took a bite and a third highness...
As if it reminded Murong Bo of something, he stared at Murong Feng's face, which was not half similar to himself, for a while, his eyes became cold, his eyes searched for everyone in the court, and his eyebrows frowned: "What about the prince?" ”
"Why didn't you come today!?"
Seeing this, the inner servant hurriedly whispered in his ear and replied: "Your Majesty, the crown prince said that he was unwell today, so he sent someone to ask for sick leave early in the morning!" ”
Emperor Chu was angry, sneered, and sneered: "Sick again!?" Three hundred and sixty-five days a year, and he was sick for three hundred days! What's the use of me wanting him to be a prince!? ”
Seeing that he was angry, the big chamberlain hurriedly came out to play a round, "Your Majesty, you also know that the prince has a poor foundation since he was a child, and how many precious medicinal materials he has eaten over the years, but it has never worked......
"That's it, that's it!"
Emperor Chu sighed helplessly and waved his hand, his gray temples showing a little tiredness at this time.
The chamberlain gradually retreated, and Emperor Chu was thinking about his most beloved son after all, and ordered: "Let the imperial doctor go and see, whatever medicine you need, send it over!" ”
In the main hall, those courtiers secretly made eye contact in private, and then someone stepped out of the queue and seconded the proposal: "Your Majesty, what Lord Xu said is very true, although His Royal Highness has the heart to make contributions, but now he is still young, and the minister thinks that it is more secure to hand over this case to Lord Xu to deal with!" ”
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
"The minister also seconded the ......"
More and more ministers are standing on Xu Suining's side, but everyone who can enter this diligent palace is a human spirit, and in the comparison just now, who can't see that His Majesty doesn't attach importance to his third son, and he is concerned!?
Murong Feng knelt in front of the court, listening to the words of the ministers in his ear, and secretly clenched his hand hidden under the wide-sleeved robe.
They kept saying that it was for the sake of his safety, but everything in and out of the words revealed to Emperor Chu that he wanted to investigate the case, in order to win the hearts of the people in the world, establish prestige among the people, and deliberately fight for merit...... Maybe even have bad intentions!
Looking at the skeptical gaze cast by Emperor Chu, Murong Feng lowered his eyes, unable to hide his disappointment, and smiled a little mockingly at the corners of his lips.
Again, his father never trusted him...
Or perhaps, even he is the person, this son, he has long forgotten and never remembered......
"In this case, this case will be handed over to Xu Qing to deal with!"
The decision has been made, Murong clenched his fists and was still unwilling to fight, and hurriedly said loudly: "Father, son, ......."
But Emperor Chu didn't look at him, and left the hall directly, and the big chamberlain shook the dust in his hand and shouted: "Retreat!" ”
Soon, the crowd dispersed.
In the splendid hall, only the extremely lonely figure knelt on the court for a long time and did not leave.
So quiet!
It was silent, and there was no sound.
Murong Feng didn't know how long he knelt down, he only felt that his knee joints had already been numb, and in the empty hall, he staggered to his feet, and when he raised his eyes, he saw the golden plaque hanging high in the court, and the four big characters with golden light came into view.
- Above board!?
He looked at the dazzling words, looked at it, and suddenly laughed for some reason, from the low smile at the beginning, to the crazy laughter at the end, until the corners of his eyes burst into tears, and he still couldn't stop.
Is it ridiculous?
It's ridiculous......
What a ridiculous and stupid self......
After all these years, he thought it would be different to come back again......
It's the same, nothing has changed!
Zhong Bai waited for a day, left and right, and didn't see Murong Feng come back, anxious, when it was getting late, someone in Yuehua Palace suddenly came to look for him, and he realized that Murong Feng had not gone back for a day.
They searched all the way, but this diligent palace was not found......
The originally good sky suddenly darkened, the wind and clouds changed, the dark clouds gathered, there was thunder rumbling in the sky, and the silver-white lightning like a snake dance accompanied by the earth-shattering thunder pierced the sky, as if the wind and rain were coming!
It's going to rain!?
Zhong Bai clenched the long sword on his waist, and was about to rush into the Qinzheng Hall regardless of it, the fierce whistling wind wrapped in the pouring rain came quickly, the bean-sized raindrops fell on people's faces densely and urgently, and it was actually a pain in the face, Zhong Bai stood in the rain curtain, and just ran up the white marble steps, he saw a young man walking out of the hall in despair.
