"It's rare that you understand things so well, and since that's the case, I will allow you to play and send Hua Jiangyue to prison. Now let's talk about your second thing!" The emperor was very curious about the four princes at the moment, so his attitude changed slightly.

The fourth prince was happy in his heart, but his face was silent, and he said to the emperor: "The second thing is that the son wants to ask his father to allow the son to inspect the recovered national treasure!"

"This case is already in the responsibility of your brothers, and the inspection is also unshirkable, and this matter is also approved, if you fail to solve the case within the half-month period, then you have repeatedly violated the law and disregarded the prestige of the court, and I will investigate it together! "Although the emperor felt a little happy in his heart at this moment because of the request of the four princes, he was still a little unhappy when he thought that his prestige had been repeatedly destroyed by his two sons, so he issued such a threat, hoping to alleviate the resentment in his heart.

After the fourth prince and the third prince came out of the study, the third prince immediately pressed the fourth prince on the pillar and asked viciously: "What do you mean! What kind of place is the edict, you don't know it, right? If you lock up Jiangyue in that kind of place, aren't you afraid that Jiangyue won't be able to survive?"

"Oh, isn't the Imperial Prison a place where the prisoners of my father's Emperor are detained? What's the big deal, if she can't even stand this kind of thing, then she won't be called Hua Jiangyue, and there is no need to rescue her, right?" The fourth prince said lightly, there was no guilt on his face, his eyes glanced at the palace not far away, and he didn't even look at the third prince.

Looking at the attitude of the fourth prince, the third prince was very unhappy, but after all, this place was the palace inside, if he was made angry in court, he really couldn't do it. Therefore, the third prince finally had to let go of his hand, and at the same time, the fourth prince also walked towards the place where the national treasure was stored.

Looking at the back of the fourth prince, the third prince couldn't help but be a little distracted, and he found that he couldn't understand the mind of his fourth brother more and more. After thinking about it, the fourth prince attached more importance to power than to feelings, so the third prince was immediately relieved.

In the middle of the night, the prince's mansion suddenly sent several junior colonels to invite all the ministers in charge of the Hua Jiangyue case to the four princes' mansions, and the three princes had no opinion on this, after all, this case was originally under the responsibility of the four princes, and in this matter, they were just tools used to divide power.

When the adults who had been busy for a day came to the palace of the four princes with apprehension, they saw the four princes sitting opposite the three princes and drinking tea, which made the adults even more worried, these people were all summoned by the emperor to the palace during the day to discuss the case of Hua Jiangyue, and the relationship between Hua Jiangyue and the two princes has always been difficult to guess, so whether the two princes will have a bad heart because of the morning, this is no one can say.

The criminal department Shangshu is a middle-aged man, but he has been in the officialdom for decades, so he has a very good set of life and work, he is the most relaxed one in this group of people at the moment, after all, he has never had any left-handed behavior with the two princes in the Hua Jiangyue case, and he has also had a record of standing in line in a timely manner, so he seems very relaxed, after entering the living room, he bowed to the third prince and the fourth prince very calmly, and then sat on the seat on the side.

These people are all hot figures in the court, and they climbed to this position not only by their own ability, but also by the thickness of their connections and cheeks, so they saw that the Shangshu of the Criminal Department had been dealt with calmly, and the two princes did not react, so they did the same, saluted one by one, and then sat on their seats, waiting for the "instructions" of the two princes.

The third prince looked at the crowd and saw that everyone was there, so he said to the fourth prince: "Fourth brother, everyone is together, you can tell them!"

"It's up to you, third brother, to tell me, I don't want to do the apportionment work. The fourth prince didn't even raise his eyelids when he spoke, which made all the thick black adults a little overwhelmed for a while, not to mention that they also said the word apportionment.

Although the third prince was very dissatisfied with the fourth prince's expression today, the two of them had already made it clear in private, so the third prince didn't mind the look of the fourth prince at this moment.

The Third Prince smiled at the people present, this was his way of doing things all along, and it seemed to him that it would remove the hostility and tension of the others, and it would be more beneficial for him to do things. "I'm very frightened to be here late at night, and I hope you will forgive me. ”

Everyone knows that the third prince is just polite, and it is your blessing for people to use you, who dares to say anything to forgive and not forgive. So they scrambled one by one and said: "It is our duty to share worries for the emperor, and it is our blessing to share worries for the two princes, the three princes don't have to be so polite, what's the use of ours, please say it directly." ”

The third prince still had a smile like the rising sun, and said slowly: "The emperor gave us a half-moon period, if the two of us can't solve the case, at most we will be cancelled or grounded, but a few can make us unable to solve the root cause of the case, in the future, as long as the emperor sees a few, he will think of us, do those few still have good fruit to eat? So we have to unite sincerely." ”

"Yes, what the three princes said is reasonable, we will do our best to help the two princes solve the case!" A nimble minister took the lead in speaking, with a very sincere look, which made people feel relieved when they saw it.

The third prince nodded and continued: "Actually, the only thing that needs to be done now is to gather the sergeants and servants of your respective yamen and unify them to the black market, Washe and other places to collect them. By the way, the people of the forbidden army and the Terracotta Division must keep all the doors tightly sealed, and all people entering and leaving, regardless of military and civilian officials and merchants, must be thoroughly searched!"

"The third prince, making such a big move, I'm afraid it will displease the emperor, right?" The commander of the forbidden army seemed to have some scruples, so he said very vaguely, and his eyes did not dare to stare at the third prince.

The four princes, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "Is this matter more displeasing to the emperor than the national treasure case?

The words of the fourth prince were like a soft nail, and the commander of the forbidden army still had concerns, but at this moment he had already been roasted on the fire, and if there was no possibility of solving the case, he was afraid that his official uniform would not be worn for a long time, so he could only say yes timidly.

Seeing that the forbidden army was relieved, the people of the Terracotta Division could only express their obedience, after all, even the forbidden army of the Son of Heaven had already agreed, if the Terracotta Division refused to obey, wouldn't that really give people a handle?

After the third prince and the fourth prince arranged a qiē task, they sent several adults back, and the two went straight back to the room to discuss the case.

The third prince said: "Why don't you tell them the inside story of the matter, do you still have any scruples?"

The fourth prince poured himself a drink, but he looked very indifferent, and after drinking a few cups of tea, he opened his mouth and asked: "They know, is there any benefit? We asked them to search and arrest people, and it is a person who does not have zài, this can catch a few habitual thieves at most, do you really think they caught this person who stole national treasures?"

"But if they let this person go, what should we do?" the third prince still seemed a little uneasy, so he said.

The fourth prince smiled: "I don't even have a layer of certainty, we still did it, are we still afraid of losing badly?"

The fourth prince said it easily, but everyone understands how heavy this matter is, in fact, it is self-evident. As the crown prince, although the current heir to the throne is still the crown prince, who has no desire for power? Isn't it the power and the future that they are gambling on at this moment? No matter how badly they lose, they only lose these two things.

The third prince smiled: "That's right, since that's the case, you might as well bet bigger!"

This night the moon and stars are scarce, and in another place under the same sky, the edict, Hua Jiangyue is curled up, looking through the skylight, looking at the scenery outside. She never thought that she would have such a big change.

At this moment, she is not worried about her safety, what she is worried about is Yuejifang and the third prince and the fourth prince. For Hua Jiangyue, Yuejifang is her hard work, if she falls, Yuejifang will naturally be wiped out, and the chaos of the three princes and the fourth prince for their own sake will not only change the fate of Hua Jiangyue and the future of Yuejifang, but also involve the future careers of the two princes.

Even if it is a prince, even if it is a noble prince, in the final analysis, it is a person, as long as it is a human being, he will be swayed by interests, and he will have to worry about eating and drinking. These two princes used to live freely and happily, but now, because of themselves, they have to face not only an uncertain future, but also the emperor's suspicion and resentment, and even the open guns and arrows of the mastermind behind the scenes.

On weekdays, the Imperial Prison only imprisons thieves, nobles, and Qin criminals who have died without life, and in the past two years, there are fewer and fewer people in the national court who can enter here, so this huge prison is empty.

There was not even a single person in Hua Jiangyue's female prison except for the jailers, so Hua Jiangyue was given a lot of room to think. She felt like she hadn't thought about anything so purely and attentively in a long time.

At this moment, her mind once again compared the two princes. The image of the two people is the same as before, one is as cold as ice, and the other is not right. Hua Jiangyue felt that the two of them seemed to be sent by God to make an umbrella for themselves, as long as something happened, they would be there, but the more this kind of thing, the more they owed, even if they said that they wanted to make a promise to each other, these were two people in front of them, how to make a promise?
