After Chen Yuan watched Bao join the army, he went to check the grain seeds again, and had a busy day.

Of course he didn't go to the Qinhuai River painting boat to see the "one-inch jade" as Bao said, his wife was pregnant at home, and he was going to leave tomorrow, how could he have the heart to find flowers and ask willows, such a man was too irresponsible.

In the evening, Yuan Bin came to visit.

Chen Yuan asked him to sit down together, ate something simply, and then came to the study together, and sat down with the guests, Chen Yuan knew that the friendship between the two was there, but Yuan Bin belonged to the kind of few friends, not a last resort, he would rather be alone, since he came, there must be something.

Chen Yuan ordered the family to guard, no one should come within ten meters, and while drinking tea, he listened to Yuan Bin tell about the situation.

"Your Majesty found me the day before yesterday and asked me to find out who instigated the Han King and Yue to summon the court musicians, and you must know that you also attended the banquet that day."

"Oh?" Chen Yuan was slightly surprised, how could he not know about this matter, on the day of King Han, not only flew high, summoned the court musician, but also killed the chicken to show the monkey, but unfortunately the musician was a chicken, but he couldn't be the monkey.

King Han, King Han, the more you are like this, the more Zhu Di is tired of you.

He suddenly thought of Zhu Yunxi, the daughter of the King of Han, I don't know how life and death are, she is a woman among women, her father, but she is getting farther and farther away from him, and she is a little sorry for her.

Chen Yuan put down the teacup, took a piece of paper and laid it out, his mood was complicated, stained with ink, and he wanted to write something.

"It's ugly." Yuan Bin smiled, unceremoniously. Hit the nail on the head.

Chen Yuan smiled awkwardly: "Ahem, it's an accident, don't mind, by the way, you came to me, did you find out something?" ”

Yuan Bin took a sip of tea: "Yes, according to what I have investigated, it was King Zhao who deliberately boasted about the demeanor of the court musicians beside King Han when he was drinking, saying that he was skilled, and that he could just find out the reactions of the ministers." ”

Chen Yuan paused the tip of his pen, and put a big black dot on the paper, his heart was numb, and he didn't know what to write, Huo Di raised his head and asked, "Is King Zhao behind the scenes?" ”

Yuan Bin nodded and said: "Yes, this matter has something to do with King Zhao, but he just said so, he can also say that he is drunk, and besides, because the director of the Department of Education and Workshop did not agree, King Han went to the Ministry of Rites to ask for someone, and he also beat a foreigner named Chen Shan." His subordinates also found out that it was the university scholar Yang Shiqi who asked Chen Shan to complain, but he was afraid that he would not be able to get rid of his relationship with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Grandson. ”

"Hmm!"

Chen Yuan lowered his head again and scribbled on the paper, but he didn't know what he was writing at all, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "This matter is so complicated and involves so much. ”

Chen Yuan was in turmoil for a while, the battle for the prince was getting hotter and hotter, and it was difficult for him to get out. The crown prince may not hurt the two younger brothers, but what about the grandson, Zhu Zhanji has no feelings for the two uncles, and it is difficult to say how to kill them. This is exactly the scruple that Zhu Di likes Zhu Zhanji, but he does not dare to give the throne to the crown prince.

To put it bluntly, Zhu Di is afraid that the battle of Jingjing will be staged again, and his old Zhu family will kill each other.

"Your Majesty asked me to report truthfully, and I just came to ask you if you want to talk to you."

"No."

"Oh?"

"In this matter, you must grit your teeth, just say that you haven't found anything, it is a whim of the King of Han, and it has nothing to do with other people, Chen San has also been wronged by himself, and wants to seek revenge from His Majesty."

Yuan Bin said suspiciously: "But, isn't this clearly deceiving the emperor, he sent me to investigate, and he must have sent others." ”

"I can't say that His Majesty cares most about the fear of cannibalism, this matter is inseparable from several princes, if you dig deeper, shake the foundation of the country, don't investigate, the cold minister said, check, can you deal with the King of Han or the King of Zhao or the crown prince? Neither. ”

Yuan Bin was like an initiation, and in this way, he finally understood why the emperor wanted to punish Chen Shan and the person in charge of the Teaching Workshop Division. He got up and took his leave.

Chen Yuan hummed and didn't send him off, until there was a soft "click" from the door, he calmed down, and after a closer look, a piece of paper had been painted black by him, like a ghost drawing.

King Zhao also began to use his tactics.

The black-bellied grandson.

My situation is getting more and more difficult.

Chen Yuan put down the pen, threw the paper into the paper basket, leaned back on the chair and let out a long breath.

Two fierce guards walked to the cell, took out the key to open the door, the door opened, and the deacons with torches were the first to go in.

The cell was very eerie, with no windows, as if you could see countless ghosts baring their fangs.

Chen Shan was tied to a pillar, and in the darkness he was thinking hard about how to get out of trouble.

However, it is very desperate, except for high-ranking officials like Yang Shiqi Jianyi, and strange people like Chen Yuan can get out of the prison safely, basically no one can get out alive.

The jailer entered the cell, still with a coffin face that should not be approached by the living or acquaintances, and said with a word of regret: "Hey! ”

Chen Shan immediately argued loudly: "What crime have I committed? You are free to arrest me, and I will go to your majesty to join you. ”

"Huh." The answer was a cold snort.

The Jinyi guards commanded Sai Hazhi to come in, and the jailer immediately brought him a chair, and he lay on the chair leisurely with a smile on his face.

I only heard him leisurely pick up the teacup handed over by the jailer, leisurely fiddle with the tea lid, and said lightly: "None of the people who came in began to say that they were guilty, hehe, and in the end, none of them said that they were not guilty." ”

Chen Shan felt extremely desperate.

"Tell me, who instructed you to report King Han."

"The king of Han is rampant, the ministers have been wronged, the heavens are clear, I want to seek justice."

"Torture."

"Ah, I recruited it, it was His Royal Highness Taisun who asked for a scholar-"

Sehazhi smiled darkly.

Fengtian Palace, Zhu Di's face sank like water.

Yuan Bin reported the situation of his investigation one by one, the king of Han summoned the musician, it was purely a whim, no one instigated, no one instigated, and Chen Shan, a member of the Ministry of Rites, let alone anyone who instigated it, it was because of the anger of the king of Han that he avenged His Majesty.

Yuan Bin said it very plainly and straightforwardly, but Zhu Di was a little unconvinced, and said in a deep voice: "I asked you to check, it is for you to state the facts, if you have half a point to hide, I will immediately let you break the corpse into ten thousand pieces." ”

Yuan Bin kowtowed: "Please Your Majesty to be clear, the ministers are every bit of the truth, there is absolutely no half to hide, the King of Han is confused for a while, and he has never listened to the instigation of others, as for Chen Shan, he was beaten by the King of Han, and he just wants to seek justice, nothing else." ”

Zhu Di paced back and forth, and the rain outside became heavier and heavier.

Zhu Di's brows gradually relaxed, and then tightened again, and when he was about to let Yuan Bin retreat, the Jinyi guards commanded Shi Sai Hazhi to come in, and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, Yuan Bin deceived his superiors and subordinates, and his crime cannot be punished." ”

"What?"

Yuan Bin was shocked, he was just a thousand households of Jinyi Wei, and when he came in, he was indeed the commander of Jinyi Wei, the leader of Jinyi Wei, he was up and down in his heart, and sure enough, as he expected, the emperor not only let himself investigate the case, but also quietly sent his own leader.

He was in a cold sweat, Brother Chen, you have made me miserable now.

Saihazhi knelt down: "Your Majesty, according to the minister's verification, the King of Han summoned the musician at the instigation of King Zhao, and Chen Shan's matter was instructed by His Royal Highness Taisun in the back——"

Zhu Di said murderously: "What? ”
