In the Chengqian Palace, the crown prince sat on the throne, and in the hall, several princes and old ministers stood on both sides, and in the center of the Baili Junyi and Xiao Jingran confronted each other face-to-face.

Baili Junyi's expression was cold, like the momentum of a sharp blade, but Xiao Jingran's face was not very good, with blue and black under his eyes, as if he had not rested for a long time, and there was an irritable aura around him.

Baili Jinyi opened his mouth and said, "Old General Xiao, what you said is true? ”

Xiao Jingran paused, and then nodded hurriedly: "Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, every word that the old minister said is true." Those assassins were hiding in the mansion of the five princes at the time, and the old minister happened to capture them when he was tracking, and obtained their confessions, and several of them had signed and confessed, saying that the five princesses, that is, Princess Zhaohua, sent them, first assassinated Mrs. Xia, in order to prevent the private relationship between himself and the second prince from being revealed, and later had bad intentions, intending to take advantage of the lax guard around the emperor and send them to assassinate the emperor and seek to seize the throne. ”

Baili Junyi smiled coldly: "A good story made up by General Xiao, saying that Ning Hua and the second prince have a personal relationship?" You really dare, who gave you the courage to frame the princess of the dynasty, and then to frame the prince of the dynasty, is it that a few of our princes obstructed your eyes and made you want to get rid of us! ”

Xiao Jingran implicated hundreds of miles of Jinchuan, which was also the secret instruction of the prince, in order to get rid of several princes who threatened him in one fell swoop, and Baili Junyi naturally would not let go of this good handle. In fact, in order to be able to torture Shen Ninghua a little more, three days have passed since she was imprisoned in the Zongren Mansion.

In the past three days, Baili Junyi endured the burning pain in his heart and secretly guided the public opinion of the people. After the crown prince took charge of the country, he disposed of several officials on charges of corruption, which should be supported by the people logically, but in fact, if you go to investigate, you will find that the result is just the opposite.

The courtiers next to him were silent, now it was a game between the crown prince and several princes, which side won, which side could control the supreme position. Their best choice now is not to speak out, lest they stand on the wrong side and die without a place to bury themselves.

When the prince heard this, his eyebrows immediately wrinkled: "Fifth Emperor Brother, what do you mean by this, is it that you suspect Lone's body?" ”

Baili Junyi didn't even dare to say: "How come, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is too worried, I just heard the people outside talking about it." ”

Xiao Jingran continued to sneer, and even a wave of irritability rose in his eyes, "Your Royal Highness the Fifth Prince, why didn't the old man hear such rumors, but you heard it?" Could it be that in order to rescue Princess Zhaohua, you deliberately made up lies to deceive His Royal Highness the Prince? ”

In his opinion, the prince can directly convict Shen Ninghua with the evidence he provided, and even dispose of Baili Jinchuan and Baili Junyi together, but the prince is afraid of the so-called reputation, and those who become big things are not informal, is reputation or power important?

"Old General Xiao, don't treat others with yourself, my father praised me at the beginning, saying that I am honest and pure filial piety, and I will not make up lies for my own selfish desires."

Do you think everyone is like you? Moreover, there is no personal relationship between Shen Ninghua and Baili Jinchuan at all, and there are subordinates around him who even speaks on weekdays, and there is no evidence at all, Xiao Jingran don't want to sit on this matter. As long as there is a personal affair, then the excuse he said to assassinate Xia Jingqiu in order to kill his eloquence is untenable, and the rest is easy to say.

The surrounding ministers became more and more silent, Xiao Jingran was not lightly excluded by them before, but now that they have regained power, they have also suffered a little loss, and they agree with Baili Junyi's words in their hearts. Xiao Jingran is indeed unscrupulous in order to regain the throne, as long as he does not obey the prince's leadership, all of them have been suppressed by him, and now there are a lot of spies around them, as long as they behave slightly differently, they will be reported to the prince. Nowadays, there are quite a few officials who have been disposed of.

They didn't know that there were very few people Xiao Jingran really dealt with, he put his targets on Shen Ninghua and Baili Junyi, and the ministers who were disposed of were all secretly done by the people of Biyun Pavilion and Qingtian Pavilion, and the person behind them was the prince Baili Jinyi, who was sitting on it with a benevolent face.

Xiao Jingran's face turned blue for a while: "Fifth prince, no matter how much you quibble, it is impossible for you to help Princess Zhaohua get away with it!" ”

Baili Jun glanced at him casually, as if he was extremely reluctant to deal with him.

Outside, an attendant hurriedly ran in: "Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, the second princess asks to see you." ”

"Xuan in."

Baili Jinchuan, who had been lowering his eyes, raised his eyes suddenly when he heard this, and looked at Bu Yonghan, who walked in with a pale face at the door. Her expression was extremely complicated, as if she was deeply uneasy, and she couldn't see the fierce appearance of the confrontation with her before, as if she had been greatly wronged, and bowed down to the crown prince: "I have seen His Royal Highness the prince." ”

"Princess Yonghan is exempt, the matter of Princess Zhaohua is being discussed here, why are you here?"

Bu Yonghan looked at Baili Jinchuan, and before he could open his mouth, tears fell: "I...... I really don't know how to say it. ”

"Huh? Looking at Princess Yonghan's expression, there seems to be something hidden? ”

"This thing...... I know a little bit about this. Bu Yonghan bit his lip, and the struggle in his eyes became more and more obvious.

Baili Jinyi said loudly: "Secret? ”

"Yes, I didn't handle it properly. When Mrs. Xia found the house, I once went to the house of the five princes in person and told the five brothers and sisters about it, at that time the five brothers and sisters resolutely did not admit that there was such a thing, and said that the death of Concubine Yang had nothing to do with her, so I believed it, and then did not pursue it, who knew that on the day I married the second prince, Mrs. Xia came to find justice again, so I had to invite Princess Zhaohua over, at that time the second prince reacted greatly, I originally thought that he was worried that Mrs. Xia disrupted the wedding, and later understood, He was afraid that his private affair with Princess Zhaohua would be exposed. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Baili Jinchuan, and his princess personally admitted that he had an affair with Princess Zhaohua, could it be true?

Baili Jinchuan's face was cold, and the aura around him was cold and abnormal, he glanced at Bu Yonghan, letting her talk nonsense, he didn't mean to stop it at all.

The prince's eyes widened slightly: "Princess Yonghan, what do you mean...... Do you know what kind of secret correspondence there is between the second emperor's brother and Princess Zhaohua? ”

Bu Yonghan bit his lip, struggled for a long time and finally nodded, the whole person knelt on the ground as if he was out of strength, and looked at Baili Jinchuan with miserable eyes: "Lord Wang, everything is my fault, but I can't watch your obsessive mistakes, you and Princess Zhaohua are impossible, never possible!" As she spoke, she couldn't help but feel a sense of revenge in her heart, Baili Jinchuan, don't you cherish me, since this is the case, then I will destroy you forever! What I can't get, there's no meaning in existing.

Baili Jinyi's face was shocked: "Second Emperor Brother, you and Princess Zhaohua are actually ...... Alas, why are you so confused......"

Baili Jinchuan walked up to Bu Yonghan, and his voice was indescribably cold: "How did you come out of the mansion?" Didn't I make people look favorably about you? ”

Bu Yonghan raised his head with tears in his eyes: "Lord Wang, I am your concubine, you can't imprison me in the mansion." ”

At the door, the voice of the announcement remembered in time: "Concubine Qi has arrived!" ”

Baili Jinyi frowned and looked up at the door. Qi Guifei was followed by four grandmothers and a imperial doctor, and after entering the door, she frowned and looked at Bu Yonghan on the ground: "Bu Yonghan, have you made enough trouble?" ”

Bu Yonghan was stunned: "Mother, what are these words?" ”

"I'm asking you have had enough? Hold her up! Qi Guifei coldly ordered the grandmothers behind her.

Several strong grandmothers hurriedly stepped forward and held Bu Yonghan deadly.

"Mother, what are you doing, why are you holding me?"

Concubine Qi was too lazy to take care of her, and motioned for the imperial doctor on the side to step forward. The imperial doctor took out a pill from the medicine box, and the grandmother on the side immediately opened Bu Yonghan's mouth and fed her.

Only then did Concubine Qi look at the crown prince: "His Royal Highness the prince, my lords, let you see the joke." After returning from the safari, Yonghan didn't know why, he suddenly committed hysteria, always thought that he was not favored, and put the blame on Princess Zhaohua, paranoid that Jinchuan and Princess Zhaohua had a personal affair, so he was lukewarm to her, and he didn't see it for a while, so he let her run out and ask the prince to forgive him. ”

Xiao Jingran's eyes widened, his eyes were full of angry fire, and Qi Guifei was so blatantly pointing at the deer as a horse: "Guifei Niangniang, is it inappropriate for you to act like this?" ”

Qi Guifei frowned and looked over: "Why did Old General Xiao say this?" This palace disciplines his daughter-in-law, is this also inappropriate? ”

How could Xiao Jingran watch the victories he had won so hard go down the drain: "Princess Yonghan has always been fine, how could she suddenly become hysterical?" ”

Baili Junyi sneered: "Old General Xiao hasn't gotten along with Princess Yonghan day and night, how do you know that she has been doing well?" ”

"You...... Fifth prince, in order to help Princess Zhaohua get rid of her crimes, you really do everything! ”

"After you framed me and the second emperor brother, now you are framing the concubine again? Do you mean to say that the concubine Niangniang and I are in the same league and help Princess Zhaohua clear their name? Xiao Jingran, you really have such a big face! Do you think that if your father is in a daze, you can cover the sky with one hand in the court, and frame whoever you want? Baili Junyi completely tore his face with Xiao Jingran, and he didn't even need a polite salutation.

Xiao Jingran was furious, as if he had lost his mind, and waved his fist at Baili Junyi: "Huangkou Xiaoer, when the old man was on the battlefield, you didn't know where you were, who do you think you are, you dare to talk to the old man like this, you shouldn't have been raised in the old man's mansion for so many years!" ”

The prince's face sank, and he shouted: "Old General Xiao, stop!" ”
