Chapter 114: The Prince Fights Back

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

In the prison, Prime Minister Yang Lie frowned deadly, with a sad face: "The old minister has already advised you, now that the situation of Da Xuanhe leaving the country is tense, you can't delay time in the Li country anymore!" However, instead of listening, you continued to intensify your efforts, and even ran away to the country of Li without permission! ”

But Murong Yichen was half-leaning against the wall, with a vague smile on the corner of his mouth, looking careless.

When Prime Minister Yang saw this, his beard was about to rise in anger.

"I originally wanted to make a move, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must keep the old minister neutral and not participate in the dispute between you and the eldest prince, but now why do people come to invite the old minister to visit the prison? Aren't you afraid that the emperor will know about it and become suspicious?! ”

As soon as he said this, Prime Minister Yang Cheng's mood was a little excited.

It turned out that Yang Cheng was also an old friend of the queen's father, the British duke, and later the British duke unfortunately died, so he entrusted the queen prince Murong Yichen to Prime Minister Yang Lie.

Therefore, in terms of distant relatives, Prime Minister Yang Cheng must be on Murong Yichen's side, and even the emperor thought it was true a few years ago.

But the past few years have passed, and the struggle between Murong Yichen and Murong Qingyun has become more and more intense, but at this time, Prime Minister Yang Cheng began to watch from the wall, turning a blind eye, unless it was an order from the emperor, otherwise the two would not help each other, which surprised everyone.

It turns out that all this is just out of Murong Yichen's entrustment, as the prime minister, he must obey the king's orders, once he buckles the hat of the prince's camp, I am afraid that speaking in front of the emperor will lose its original weight, but the gains outweigh the losses.

"The reason why I wanted Prime Minister Yang to clear up the relationship with this prince was just because I wanted to appease my father's heart, but now this prince has been accused of rebellion, Prime Minister Yang, if you continue to watch from the wall, I'm afraid that in a few days, this prince will be dragged to the noon gate and beheaded to show the public......"

Murong Yichen shrugged his shoulders, still joking, cynical, but it made Prime Minister Yang helpless.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the eyebrows are already burning right now, and it is imminent, can you put away your joke a little?"

Although he looks at the prince steadily on weekdays, how can he seem to be a different person now?

Prime Minister Yang frowned: "Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the queen mother in your harem!" ”

"I've come up with a plan to fight back, and the evidence has been sent to the Prime Minister's Mansion......"

Murong Yichen spoke slowly, but before he finished speaking, Prime Minister Yang was stunned for a moment: "What did you say?" Got a way? Then what is the purpose of you calling the old minister here? ”

"The prime minister has been cautious all his life, why is he confused at this time?"

Murong Yichen changed to a more comfortable posture again, pursed his lips, and lowered his eyes: "The Prime Minister and the lonely ancestor have a good relationship, and the father is not unaware of this!" The reason why I wanted the Prime Minister to draw a clear line with the prince was to show my father and make my father believe that the Prime Minister only had him in his heart! But now that the crown prince is in prison, if the prime minister is still indifferent, in the heart of my father, haven't you become a cold-blooded and cruel person? Therefore, your visit today can be generous to your father! ”

Yang Chengxiang was stunned for a moment, but a moment of confusion flashed in his heart.

There is some truth to this.

Whether it is cold-blooded and ruthless, or pretending, it is not a good reputation after all, it is better to expose some small tricks in the eyes of the emperor, so that the emperor will feel at ease.

Thinking of this, Prime Minister Yang Cheng's eyes swelled with solemnity: It seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has used this set of imperial mental techniques perfectly! With this alone, the eldest prince is beyond his reach!

"The old minister understands, thank you for the guidance of His Royal Highness the Prince!"

Prime Minister Yang got up, solemnly arched his hand at Murong Yichen, and sighed: "The old minister will go back to the house to see what this generous gift prepared by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for the eldest prince is!" ”

"Slow down and don't send it."

Murong Yichen raised his eyebrows, finally stood up, and bowed respectfully at Prime Minister Yang.

It seems that to break this game, the focus should be on Prime Minister Yang......

Murong Yichen looked at Prime Minister Yang Cheng's distant back, lowered his eyes, and thought something in his heart, but no one knew.

The next day, the Imperial Study.

Prime Minister Yang Cheng knelt under the steps with his head held high, looking righteous and awe-inspiring.

"Prime Minister, Prime Minister!"

The emperor walked around in front, and stopped talking several times, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

"I always thought that you were only loyal to me alone, why, now that Murong Yichen has been sent to the prison, you can't sit still? Baba ran to visit that unfilial son, Prime Minister Yang, do you still intend to be a minister from the dragon?! ”

Emperor Murong Jue rebuked bitterly, but the monarch and the minister have been friends for many years, and Prime Minister Yang Cheng can also see that Murong Jue's anger does not seem to come from the bottom of his heart, so he has a little more confidence in his heart.

"If you go back to the emperor, the old minister's current honor and favor are all given by the emperor, so naturally he is only loyal to the emperor! Over the years, the old minister has been loyal to the emperor, and I believe that the emperor will be able to understand the suffering of the old minister......"

Prime Minister Yang sighed heavily.

"Suffering? Ha, then you can tell me, what are your hardships to be weighted up?! ”

Murong Jue laughed angrily and questioned Prime Minister Yang in a cold voice.

"The old minister's age, speaking of which, is also watching His Royal Highness the Crown Prince grow up day by day......"

Yang Lie smiled bitterly: "The emperor should not have forgotten that the wife of the old minister and the British duchess are close friends in the nudex, and because of this, the old minister and the British duchess are even more intertwined!" Yesterday, the wife of the old minister heard the rumor that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince intended to rebel and was imprisoned in the prison by the emperor, so she cried and made trouble in the house, and wanted to come to the emperor to present her feelings, and disturbed the old minister's family, which was really miserable......"

"Hahaha......"

I don't know if it's because of thinking of that scene, Murong Jue actually laughed knowingly, and nodded knowingly: "I didn't expect Prime Minister Yang Cheng to be so old, and he is still afraid of the roar of the Hedong lion at home......"

It turned out that Mrs. Yang's fierce name had always been well known to people in Kyoto, and Murong Jue had naturally heard of two or three things, so he didn't doubt it at the moment.

"Alas, the emperor is making fun of the old minister...... It's just that Humble Jing is a little more temperamental, but everything else is very good, so, cough cough, in short, the old minister knows that he can't let Humble Jing come to the palace to disturb the emperor, so he can only agree to her request and go to the prison to visit His Royal Highness the Prince......"

After saying this, Yang Lie secretly raised his eyes again, glanced at the emperor cautiously, and did not find that the emperor was furious, and his mind turned, so he said tentatively: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the emperor's own son, and he has been taught by the emperor himself since he was a child. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a person, and the emperor should know better than the old ministers, how could he do such a rebellious thing? ”

"Pile by pile, all the evidence is in front of him, and he can deny it?"

Murong Jue's face suddenly fell, and he snorted coldly: "Didn't Prime Minister Yang listen to your wife's words again, so you want to come to intercede for that rebel?!" If so, Prime Minister Yang Cheng is still exempt from respect! ”

"The minister didn't dare to intercede for His Royal Highness the Prince, but the minister suspected that this was a means used by others, in order to ruin His Royal Highness the Prince, and even, ruin the eternal foundation of our Great Xuan......"

Prime Minister Yang took out a piece of music from his arms, held it high above his head, and said loudly: "A few days ago, the old minister inadvertently found a corruption case, and there was no noise at that time, just followed the vine and continued to investigate, and now it has been almost investigated, but the amount involved in the case is tens of millions, the old minister is really frightened in his heart, and he asked the emperor to take a look!" ”

"Embezzlement?"

Murong Jue frowned, a little unclear, but he still stepped forward and picked up the concerto.

I opened it casually and glanced at it a few times, but the more I looked down, the more frightened I felt, and when I saw that in the end, Murong Jue's face was as black as ink, and the green tendons on his forehead jumped and jumped, and he was almost hovering on the verge of an outburst of anger.

"What you said is true?!"

Murong Jue gritted his teeth and asked Prime Minister Yang Cheng word by word.

"Even if the old minister has the courage, he doesn't dare to deceive the emperor, let alone make any small moves under the emperor's nose at such a sensitive moment!"

Prime Minister Yang smiled bitterly, raised his head, looked at Murong Jue solemnly and said: "Your Majesty, if it weren't for the livelihood of my Daxuan, even if he was an old minister, he might not have the courage to accuse the eldest prince of being the mastermind behind this extraordinarily large corruption and bribery case!" It's just that if the old minister doesn't stand up, who should those people who died in vain turn turn to be the master? Will those civilians who are still called heaven and earth not spirit now have resentment towards the imperial court? Your Majesty, the people are water, the king is like a boat, water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn a boat. ”

It turned out that the list of these corrupt and bribe-taking personnel were all subordinates of the eldest prince Murong Qingyun, and it took Murong Yichen many years to gather all this evidence, and he originally wanted to find a special moment in front of Murong Jue, but the current situation was extremely tense, so he had to take the lead in playing this trump card.

Fortunately, the effect is also obvious, Murong Jue saw the Book of the People in front of him, and he was furious in his heart, and ordered someone to go to the Great Prince's Mansion to catch the Great Prince, and directly threw him into the prison, and made a companion with Murong Yichen.

I heard that when Lord Shen Lang took the imperial guards to arrest the eldest prince, the eldest prince was still chic and happy in the mansion, his life was rotten, and he was untidy when he was taken away, and even Lord Shen couldn't stand it.

After waking up, Murong Qingyun recalled what happened before, glanced at Murong Yichen in the cell next to him, and gritted his teeth and said, "You hurt me!" ”

But Murong Yichen only raised his eyebrows, and arched his hand at Murong Qingyun: "Since the eldest emperor brother can be the first year of junior high school, then Gu can naturally be fifteen, you and I are not a ...... each other."
