Xu Ziqian, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, is a hardcore follower of King Rui, and his second daughter is still the side concubine of King Rui, and now Princess Rui is crazy and can't be a director, and another side concubine made a mistake and was locked up, and now the master in the inner courtyard of King Rui's mansion is Xu Ziqian's second daughter Xu Ying.

The favor of her daughter also strengthened Xu Shangshu's heart to follow King Rui.

And Yuan Xiye suddenly died a cloth merchant, and one of his concubines was the niece of the housekeeper of Xu Shangshu's mansion, and the two things seemed to be related.

But even so, how can those Hun killers be so sure that this Liu Yuanwai is a "prince"?

Or rather, is it King Rui?!

......

"Go look it up." After a long time, the prince gave such an order.

No one answered, Lu Zheng and Wen Tao didn't move, and Su Yuan didn't move.

He knew that the prince had ordered his secret guard.

Royal matters, he still said less.

The prince asked the secret guard to check Liu Yuanwai's background, and Su Yuan's task was temporarily completed, so the prince asked Su Yuan to take him down to change clothes and rest first.

Su Yuan tossed for so long, he really needed to rest, and when he heard the prince's arrangement, he didn't say anything and followed.

He knew very well in his heart that the prince did not ask him to go back, but he was afraid that it would be of other use.

Perhaps, I will need to follow him into the palace to face the saint ......

Thinking that he is an ordinary person, he can actually see the face of heaven in his lifetime, and this opportunity is also very human.

But Su Yuan didn't feel excited.

On the contrary, the heart is calm.

He did what he had to do, not to ask for anything, not to get anything, to ask for nothing, and naturally to be quiet.

……

However, Lu Zheng was a little uneasy in his heart.

After Su Yuan left, Lu Zheng wanted to say something to the prince, but he opened his mouth and was stopped by the prince.

"Lone knows your concerns, don't worry, Lone will definitely guarantee his safety," the prince first assured him so seriously, and then suddenly added jokingly, "Even if it's not for you, for An Sheng, Lone must keep him safe, after all, this is An Sheng's person, if something happens, how can Lone explain to An Sheng." ”

Lu Zheng heard that the prince was joking with him, and he didn't refute it, and when he heard the prince say that he would keep Su Yuan safe, he was relieved, and discussed other things with the prince and Wen Tao.

However, after a while, the directors of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, Shuntian Mansion and Jingzhao Mansion came.

After a while, even the people from the Punishment Department came.

There was a murder on Pinghu, and although the death was only an insignificant person, it still cannot be underestimated.

The prince was in charge of the Lantern Festival this year, and there was a murder, and these principals were naturally worried about being implicated.

However, the prince didn't mean to blame them when he looked at it, which made several adults quietly breathe a sigh of relief.

I'm afraid that the prince will anger them indiscriminately, then they really can't tell if they have a mouth.

However, they do have omissions in this matter, and this responsibility cannot be escaped, but fortunately, it is not an important person who died, and the punishment should not be too heavy.

The prince talked to the adults who came for a while, and when he saw them secretly relieved one by one, he couldn't help but sneer secretly.

Now I still have the heart to breathe a sigh of relief, I don't know if they will be in such a mood later!

......

An hour later, the secret guard sent out to inquire about the situation returned, but the things brought back were not presented by the secret guard, but by the prince's personal guard.

When several adults saw the prince's guards coming in with a scroll of things, they were a little confused, but they also guessed that it might be related to tonight's murder, so they didn't dare to say more.

After the prince had finished reading the scroll, the princes asked them, "Do you know who committed this murder tonight?" ”

Several adults were stunned by the prince's question, and then their hearts trembled.

Prince, isn't this to blame them for their bad behavior?

But they didn't even catch the culprit, so how could they know who committed the crime?

Several adults looked at each other, and then they all knelt down and pleaded guilty.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince forgives his sins, and the ministers are incompetent."

Who knew that when the prince heard this, he kindly told them to get up, "A few adults, please get up, Lone didn't mean to blame you, just ......"

Just what?

When several adults heard the prince's voice, their hearts couldn't help but tremble, and then they lifted it up tightly.

Then I heard the prince continue: "It's just that I found some eyebrows here and want to discuss it with you." ”

Did the prince find out what he saw?

Several people couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this.

So quickly, the prince found out the problem? They don't have a clue!

Seeing their incredulous looks, the prince didn't explain, but only said to his guards: "Invite someone over." ”

......

A moment later, Su Yuan reappeared.

Several adults didn't know Su Yuan, and when they saw him coming, they were puzzled.

However, after Su Yuan repeated Fang Cai's words, they were no longer at a loss.

It's actually the people of the Huns!

This......

Yin Li Zhenping of the Shuntian Yin Mansion hurriedly bowed down and said: "Your Highness, this matter is very important, and you should report it to the emperor immediately." ”

Jing Zhao Yin Fu Yin and the squire of the Criminal Department, who were one step behind him, also spoke out in agreement.

"What your lords say is very true, and Lone also means this." The crown prince also agreed with the words of Shuncheon Fu Yin.

He originally planned to report the matter to the emperor, but the reason why he told them the matter first was just because he wanted more people to know, which made the emperor have some scruples.

The more court officials know about this matter, the more the emperor can't pick it up high and put it down gently.

Although this is destined to make the emperor unhappy, the prince can't take care of these things.

The ambition of the Huns and wolves, if they are not eradicated as soon as possible, will be in endless trouble!

After talking to a few adults, the prince did not delay any longer, and immediately took Su Yuan, Lu Zheng and Wen Tao, as well as a few other adults, into the palace to face the saint.

......

On the night of the New Year's Eve, although Emperor Hui did not go out to enjoy with the people, but the mood was also good, and lanterns were hung everywhere in the palace.

When the prince brought people into the palace to ask for a meeting, Emperor Hui was feasting with several concubines, and when he heard that the prince was coming, he couldn't help but be surprised, so he asked Chang Gonggong: "The lantern festival is over?" ”

In previous years, the lantern festival did not stop until the ugly time, and the market reopened when it was the end of the year, which can almost be said to be all night, why did it end so early this year?

As soon as Gonggong Chang heard Emperor Hui's words, he knew that he had misunderstood, so he hurriedly replied: "Back to the emperor, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not alone, and there are a few adults behind him, saying that there is something important to ask for Your Majesty." ”

When Emperor Hui heard that there was something important, he couldn't help but have a little headache.

But no matter how headache it is, you can't ignore the important things, so I can only talk to the queen, and then go to see the prince.
