Chapter 165: Smiling Tiger

After dealing with the four princes, Su Renqing came to King Lan's mansion and recounted what the four princes said in the mansion to King Lan.

Wei Qianlan was silent about his words.

Gu Ningyan listened to Su Renqing's words to report to the prince, and said with a light smile, "Master Su, you are very good at talking, and you skillfully pushed the news that the five princes got first to the emperor, you are smart." ”

"Alas, Princess Lan, don't say that, the lower officials are also forced to do so, and they can't offend the four princes, so they have no choice but to tell the truth, and besides, the emperor didn't say that he was not allowed to tell the four princes." Su Renqing Chonglan Wang and his wife said with a smile.

"Okay, Master Su, tell me why you came." Gu Ningyan was really speechless for this Lord Su, and it was natural that he could still say it after playing the four princes and the emperor.

Su Renqing unceremoniously picked up the tea on the table and took a sip, "It's nothing, it's just to avoid the four princes, and please don't mind King Lan and Princess Lan." ”

Ling Ningshuang, who had been sitting on the side, laughed when she heard Su Renqing's words, "It turns out that you want this place to become your refuge." ”

"Princess Tanglin is right."

Ling Ningshuang suddenly felt dazzling at Su Renqing's smile when he looked at him, is this man too smiling, it can be described in one sentence, he is very much like a smiling tiger.

Gu Ningyan saw a hint of Lord Su's unspeakable clue on the side

Come.

Su Renqing naturally stored tea for Ling Ningshuang, but he found that the other party's gaze looked behind him from time to time.

So he looked over, but found that it was Ye Yuan, the king of Jinyang, who came over with his sister, and they seemed to be arguing, and both of them had bad looks.

He seemed to understand the situation in Ling Ningshuang's eyes, it turned out that she had a heart for Ye Yuan.

"King Jinyang, what are you arguing with Miss Ye?"

Ye Yuan grabbed his sister's arm and walked over, and in the face of Su Renqing's inquiry, he glanced at the person and asked, "Why are you in the Lan Wangfu?" ”

Gu Ningyan grabbed in front of Su Renqing's words and said, "He came to take refuge." ”

Ye Yuan was puzzled and asked with his eyes, "Take refuge, what are you taking refuge into?" ”

"Escape from the Four Princes." Wei Qianlan then replied.

Su Renqing got up and nodded, "The thing is that as King Lan and Princess Lan said, the lower officials are here to take refuge." ”

"Sister Gu, my eldest brother insists on sending me back." Ye Qiao hugged Gu Ningyan's arm and begged her to say something for herself.

It just happened to diverge everyone's inquiries about Master Su.

Gu Ningyan patted Ye Qiao's head with a smile and asked Ye Yuan. "Decided to go?"

"Well, I want to send her back first." Since Ye Yuan knew that the fourth prince had evil intentions towards his sister, he was always worried, and felt that it was safer to send his sister back to Suicheng.

"Listen to your brother." Gu Ningyan maintained the suggestion at the beginning.

Ye Qiao lost her spirit, it seems that she has to go back, she really doesn't want to, "Then when can I come again?" ”

"Haha, you, when the matter is over, I'll arrange for someone to pick you up." Gu Ningyan smiled at Ye Qiao, he hadn't left yet, and he came back again.

Wei Qianlan motioned for Ye Yuan to go to the study with him, Su Renqing was told to come in with him, and the three of them chatted for a long time in the study.

Two hours later, Ye Yuan packed his bags and set foot on the road back to Suicheng with Ye Qiao.

On the fifth prince's side, he personally took people to Muyan Mountain as mentioned by Lord Su, but found nothing.

Tong Lu has been following and protecting him, but he is a little helpless about the lack of fighting spirit of the five princes. "You don't seem to be interested in the position of the crown prince?"

Wei Luofeng exhaled deeply, ordered his subordinates to go down to rest, and then entered the palace with his cousin Tong Lu.

He replied to him as he walked, "I really don't understand what my father means, in fact, I won't have an opinion on who he appoints, just don't include me in it." ”

"It seems that what my aunt said is right, you don't have the heart to fight for power and profit, but even if you don't, it doesn't mean that others won't harm you, it's better to be careful in everything." Tong Lu said that the caution is the fourth prince, I hope this cousin can understand.

Wei Luofeng understood what his cousin meant, but he didn't believe that the Four Emperor Brothers would be ruthless to him.

"The Fifth Emperor Brother is also back? I heard that you are positive. ”

Just when Wei Luofeng was thinking about his old age, the four emperor brothers suddenly came to him.

"Like the Fourth Emperor Brother, you are for the people, did you enter the palace to visit your father?"

The fourth prince, Wei Yifan, looked at Wei Luofeng with a light smile and said, "Didn't the fifth emperor brother also enter the palace to find his father, how about it, have you caught the murderer?" ”

"How can I have the ability of the Four Emperor Brothers, that is, at the behest of my father, just go through the motions, and in the end, you must be the Fourth Emperor Brother who will come first."

Tong Lu on the side listened to the self-deprecating words of the five princes, and shook his head helplessly again, it seems that this fifth prince, like himself, must change to chase fame and fortune.

The fourth prince was not happy because of the words of the fifth prince, on the contrary, in his heart, he thought that the fifth prince was deliberately hiding his ambitions. "Fifth Emperor Brother, what are you talking about, no matter who we become the prince, we all deserve it, we are all the children of our father, and we are all for the people."

"Well, the Fourth Emperor Brother is right." The fifth prince nodded dumbly because of the words of the fourth prince.

"Fifth prince, the emperor invites you in." The little eunuch in charge hurriedly ran to report to the five princes.

The fourth prince Wei Yifan thought of the emotionless look of the old man when he first met his father, and he clearly looked down on his attitude.

As a result, as soon as the fifth emperor brother entered the palace, he knew that he had sent someone to invite him, and the difference in treatment was really not a little bit.

But he could only force a smile at the other party and said, "Fifth Emperor Brother hurry up, right, don't let your father wait for a long time." ”

"Okay."

The fourth prince looked at the figure of the fifth emperor brother entering the main hall, and his originally calm eyes instantly began to burn with angry flames.

In the main hall, the emperor saw the five princes and Tong Lu walking in, so he put down the music in his hand.

"The son visits his father."

"Tong Lu meets the emperor."

"Get up and speak." The emperor opened his mouth to let the five princes and Tong Lu get up and speak, and then asked the five princes, "Did you meet your fourth emperor brother outside?" ”

Wei Luofeng replied truthfully, "Back to my father's words, I met it." ”

The emperor raised his eyebrows, then picked up the put down piece of music again, and asked, "Your fourth emperor brother has found a clue, what about you?" ”

The fifth prince stepped forward very apologetically, knelt down and replied, "The father and the emperor forgive the sin, the son is incompetent, and according to the clues of Lord Su, the murderer was not found." ”

"Your Majesty, the five princes have tried their best to search, but the other party is not a person, so please don't blame the five princes." Tong Lu immediately pleaded guilty for the five princes, hoping that the emperor would be angry.

However, his worries were unnecessary, because the emperor was not angry at all, and he saw that the emperor continued to review the folds in his hand with a faint expression.

"You don't have to blame yourself, if the other party's identity was simple, I would not have entrusted such a difficult task to your brother."

"It is an honor for my son to share the worries of my father." The Fifth Prince continued.

The emperor stepped down from his high position, personally helped the fifth prince to get up, patted him on the shoulder, and said as if giving him strength. "You're just too stupid, don't you know that the fourth prince has gone to find Princess Lan?"

The fifth prince's face was dull, "Aunt Lanhuang? ”

He didn't understand, but Tong Lu heard the reason, no wonder the four princes could find clues, but what was the clue that the emperor said?

The emperor was stunned by the five princes, sighed, pointed his finger at his head and reminded, "Why did I give birth to such an unenlightened person, how can you reassure me like this." ”

"Father, can it be said that Aunt Lan can find the murderer? Ask Uncle Lan and Huang Huang to take pictures of the murderer, and you can reward the Huang Aunt with them. Wei Luofeng anxiously wanted to eliminate harm for the people.

Tong Lu had an urge to kill the five princes at the moment, and the emperor's words were already very obvious.

"Do you want me to give the throne to your uncle?" The emperor's bland words suddenly became cold.

The fifth prince instantly understood, and he said the wrong thing, "Erchen didn't mean this, my father forgives my sins." ”

"Okay, if you want to finish it as soon as possible, you have to go to Princess Lan and step down." After the emperor reminded the five princes, he directly asked them to retreat.

Wei Luofeng wanted to speak again, but was quickly dragged out of the hall by Tong Lu.

has been everywhere at the palace gate, and Wei Luofeng is still not confused.

"Where are we going?" When he woke up, he found that he had been forcibly dragged into the carriage.

"Of course, I went to find Princess Lan according to the emperor's wishes." Tong Lu was originally worried that the five princes would be destroyed in the hands of the four princes, but he didn't expect the emperor to be on their side, so everything would be easy to do.

When they arrived at King Lan's mansion, they were told that neither King Lan nor Princess Lan were in the mansion. It means that they ran away in vain.

In fact, in the Snow Garden, Gu Ningyan and Wei Qianlan have been hiding in the courtyard and have not come out.

Moreover, at Tong Lu's insistence, the five princes' visits for two consecutive days were closed.

In the end, Tong Lu had no choice but to go to Concubine Tong with the five princes.

Concubine Tong fell into silence after listening to her son's words, it was not that she didn't want to help her son, but he didn't want her son to become a victim of the emperor's subordinates, who could be the emperor's opponent in this imperial city.

"Auntie, you have something to say." Tong Lu was on the side, but he couldn't help but be anxious first.

Concubine Tong glanced at her son and asked tentatively, "What do you think?" Want to be a prince? ”

"I don't want to." The fifth prince almost didn't think about it, and directly answered his mother's inquiry.

The worry in Concubine Tong's eyes was also put down. "Since such as

This, then you are in a hurry to find Princess Lan what to do. ”

"Auntie, this is what the emperor meant."

The five princes followed. "Yes, Mother Concubine, my father asked me to find Aunt Lan."

"You don't have to be like this, and Luo Feng, listen to the concubine, if you don't want to be the prince, stop here." Concubine Tong pointed her finger at the location of her son's heart and admonished.

"Queen Mother, Erchen understands." Wei Luofeng understood in his mother's explanation that he never wanted to fight for the right time.

Tong Lu's face was a little ugly when he saw this, but he didn't agree with the decision of his aunt and the fifth prince, "Auntie, don't you really fight for it, if the fourth prince sits on the throne of the crown prince, it will definitely not make us feel better." ”
