Chapter 286: The Emperor Puts the Crown Prince Under House Arrest

"If you didn't hear it, I did." Chu Zhuangyan paused, "I have also learned about this matter, the prince injured King Yan for his own selfish interests, and he didn't care about the royal face at all, I am very sad!" ”

Sad? Chu Ruoyan heard a trace of disappointment in Chu Zhuangyan's tone, what did it mean to be sad? My father didn't say anything yesterday.

"However, when I asked yesterday, the prince refused to admit his mistake, since this is the case, then ......" Chu Zhuangyan glanced at Chu Ruoyan, "Then the prince will go back to the house to reflect, when to reflect, when to go to court again, as for what you did before, I will naturally arrange for others to do it." ”

"What?" Chu Ruoyan didn't care that he was in the court now, so he exclaimed at that time. Doesn't the meaning of my father's words mean that he is under house arrest? has withdrawn all his rights, but only kept the name of the prince, what is the difference between this and abolishing himself as the prince?

"What? Didn't the prince hear clearly? ”

"Father, the son doesn't understand why the father made this decision, if the father doesn't tell the reason, the son will not be able to obey the order." Chu Ruoyan lowered his head and said.

Not only him, but even the other ministers present also felt that Chu Zhuangyan had done something very strange. Especially the prince's party, they can't hold it back.

"Your Majesty, you have to think twice! If you make such a hasty decision, I am afraid it will be disadvantageous to the imperial court. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, the ministers thought that this matter could be taken slowly, rumors are rumors after all, and it is not too late to say it after finding out, but you can't just let the prince return to the house."

A group of ministers all stepped forward to dissuade them, Chu Ruoyan felt a headache when he looked at the ministers who spoke out to dissuade them, and if they came out again, it would only make his father more suspicious of himself, and it would not benefit him at all. Sure enough, as the ministers spoke out to dissuade him, Chu Zhuangyan's face became more and more ugly, and the ministers were still talking at first, but after seeing Chu Zhuangyan's expression, they gradually quieted down.

Their original purpose was to curry favor with the prince through this matter, but depending on the situation, this road may not work, and the emperor is determined to punish the prince today.

"Who has any opinions?" Chu Zhuangyan looked at the ministers below and said, and then motioned to the eunuch next to him to read out the letter written by Chu Ruoyan in public.

The ministers listened to the content of the letter and gradually changed their faces, the prince and King Yan are not in agreement, it is a well-known thing, so it is abnormal for the prince to invite King Yan to be a guest, but King Yan did not accuse Chu Ruoyan too much in the letter, but also repaid his grievances with virtue and helped the prince intercede, and this mind immediately won the favor of many people.

Chu Ruoyan looked at everyone's changing expressions, and knew that he was bound to be punished this time, so he didn't speak anymore. Chu Zhuangyan nodded after seeing that everyone was no longer talking.

"Prince, I hope you will reflect on it in the mansion, you go down!"

"Yes, the retainers are retired." Chu Ruoyan's mouth was filled with bitterness, before he retreated from the dynasty, his father had already driven himself out in public, even if he made a comeback in the future, someone would always remember this day. He Yuanzhong followed Chu Ruoyan and slowly walked towards the palace gate, and Chu Ruoyan stopped walking as he walked.

"Prince, what's wrong?" He Yuanzhong asked.

"Prince? Do I still look like a prince like this now? Chu Ruoyan said hatefully. I thought that this matter was between the three of them, but I didn't expect Chu Zhuangyan to go directly to the court and say that it was true that he had abolished his various positions, and even made himself lose face, how would he face the ministers in the future?

"Of course you are the crown prince, the prince of Izumo Province will only be you, only you." He Yuanzhong has been picking up nice words and pouring them into Chu Ruoyan's mind, although Chu Ruoyan knows that He Yuanzhong is flattering himself, but after listening to these words, his mood is indeed much better.

At this time, the palace has not yet retreated, after the prince left, the things he was responsible for were partly distributed by Chu Zhuangyan to the King of Qin, and partly to Chu Ruoyao, the ministers who were before * were no longer willing, and they also knew that their masters had been temporarily changed, as for when the prince would come back, there would be no news in the short term.

After retreating from the court, Chu Ruoyao walked out of the main hall, and before he had gone far, he heard someone calling him behind him.

"King Yan, please stay." He turned his head, and the person who stopped him was Chu Ruoyang, the king of Qin. This person is much smarter than the crown prince, and he didn't say a word when he went to court today, so he avoided being punished by Chu Zhuangyan.

"Oh? It turned out to be His Royal Highness the King of Qin, I don't know what to tell this king to stop? ”

"It's nothing, it's just that here, congratulations to His Royal Highness King Yan, who has been reused by his father again." King Qin said with a smile on his face.

"Again? King Qin's words seem to have a problem, right? What do you mean by again? Chu Ruoyang grabbed the loopholes in King Qin's words, Chu Ruoyang said it casually unintentionally, but it turned out to be Chu Ruoyao's handle, and he was in the palace and he couldn't have any conflicts with Chu Ruoyao, so he could only pass this matter aside.

"Why is King Yan so serious? This king just wants to congratulate King Yan. Chu Ruoyang shook his head and said.

"The king of this book also congratulates the king of Qin, as soon as the prince returns to the house, most of the affairs fall on the king of Qin, presumably the king of Qin can take this opportunity to plan well." Chu Ruoyao said with something in her words.

Until Chu Ruoyan left, Chu Ruoyang was still standing in place, and the King of Chu behind him quickly followed, and muttered a few words after seeing the back of Chu Ruoyao leaving: "Isn't it just that he was reused by his father?" I don't know how long it will be reused! ”

"You can't underestimate King Yan, King Yan is very smart, he shows weakness to everyone, which has aroused the sympathy of all the ministers, including his father, and now he is safe, if you want to say that he is unintentional, I will not believe it." Chu Ruoyang almost guessed Chu Ruoyang's plan.

"Are you saying that all this was done on purpose by King Yan?" After hearing this, the king of Chu was also a little puzzled. This Yan King has been stupid for so many years before, but now he has become so smart, which makes people feel very tricky.

The waves set off by the early dynasty gradually subsided, and when Chu Ruoyan returned to Dali Temple, he saw Li Luobing reading something, and his expression was also very focused, he did not come forward to disturb after seeing it, but kept standing quietly in place, until Li Luobing stretched his waist before he opened his mouth.

"What are you looking at?"

Li Luobing was startled when he suddenly heard Chu Ruoyao's voice, and when he looked up, he found that he was standing not far from him, and hurriedly put down the things in his hand and walked over to meet Chu Ruoyao.

"When did you come back? How did I not know? ”

"You're looking so seriously, of course you don't know." Chu Ruoyao said with a smile.

Li Luobing looked back: "Today, another citizen came to report to the official, saying that their family died, so I asked Zhao Wu to bring their paper first, and now I am looking at it, and I am about to go to the scene, and the people who reported to the official are still waiting nearby!" ”

Since Chu Ruoyan and Li Luobing dealt with several cases, the people have rekindled their confidence in Dali Temple, and after hearing from the people before them, the new Dali Temple is very fair and does not accept money, and those fearful thoughts in their hearts have slowly disappeared.

As soon as she heard that there was a case, Chu Ruoyao put away her playful expression, and after looking at the paper a few times, she walked out with Li Luobing and found the people who reported to the official.

"Is it the official you reported?"

"If you go back to the adult, it's the grass people." A man in his fifties lowered his head and said, his voice was still a little trembling, he should have been frightened by this incident.

"Man or woman? Who knows about this when you come here? Do you know who that person is? Chu Ruoyan glanced at the Orion and said.

"Grass People...... The grass people ...... "As soon as Chu Ruoyan asked who that person was, Wang Lihu trembled even more.

"Don't worry, you take a sip of tea first." Li Luobing comforted. Wang Orion obediently picked up the teacup and drank the water in it, which eased the tension.

"That person is a woman, a neighbor Sun who lives on the same street as the grass people, and the grass people were too panicked when they came here, and they didn't know who would find out." Wang Orion answered several of Chu Ruoyao's questions one by one.

Li Luobing felt a little worried when he heard what he said, the two of them rushed over first because of the urgency of the matter, but when they were in Dali Temple, they had already spent part of their time reading the dossier, and now the work of Dali Temple was still on the way, and they would not arrive until they got there for a while, in case someone else found the body during this period, I don't know how it would be destroyed.

"Hurry up." Thinking of these questions, Li Luobing hurriedly commanded the coachman, and the speed of the carriage immediately increased, and because the road was too bumpy, the three of them did not speak again. After arriving at the place where Orion said the body was found, the three of them got out of the car, and Chu Ruoyan and Li Luobing saw the scene they least wanted to see.

There was a dense crowd of people in the place where Orion said, and Li Luobing knew that the valuable clues should have been destroyed after seeing this scene, but there was something that happened here, even if it was destroyed again, they had to bite the bullet.

"You wait here for the guards and servants in the back, I'll go and see first." After Chu Ruoyan said a few words to Li Luobing, he walked over with the king Orion.

"Get out of the way, the adults from Dali Temple are here."

"It's His Royal Highness King Yan, get out of the way."

Some people in the crowd called Chu Ruoqi an adult, and some people called him King Yan, these names Chu Ruoyan didn't put it in his eyes, what he cared about was the female corpse on the ground. After everyone got out of the way, he found that the woman's corpse was no longer covered with clothes.

"Who of you still knows her?" Chu Ruoqi looked at everyone and asked, since this Orion knows each other, then this person should also be the people nearby.
