Even if Xu Lizhen hated Zhan Changdong again, he could only kneel down to accept Emperor Tianqing's words.

The entire early dynasty can be described as a climax, Hubu Shangshu was imprisoned, the son of Chengguo Gong was also arrested, and Zhan Changdong's means of throwing thousands of catties in the court made everyone look sideways.

After the next court, those courtiers came out of the main hall one after another.

Facing the hot wind blowing outside, almost everyone had already come back to their senses at this time, and they could clearly see the battle hidden under the fierce competition in the early morning, and they could also see that the Chengguo Mansion and Meng Dehui were tricked nine times out of ten.

When he saw Zhan Changdong walking in front of him, even if he was wearing a four-grade official robe, no one dared to underestimate this man who had been away from Beijing for several years and had just come back from the pit of several people.

Everyone whispered about Meng Dehui's affairs and walked towards the outside of the palace.

Unexpectedly, not long after leaving the main hall, he saw that the third prince blocked Zhan Changdong, and all the courtiers stopped and looked over there with their ears pricked up.

The three princes got straight to the point: "The Chengguo Mansion has no grievances or enmity with you, why do you want to harm them!" ”

Zhan Changdong's face was slightly surprised: "What did His Highness say, when did Weichen harm the Guogong Mansion?" ”

"Don't pretend you don't know!"

When he was in the palace, he only cared about Meng Dehui's affairs and didn't react, at first he thought that Zhan Changdong was speaking for the Chengguo Mansion because he wanted to sell their good, but who knew that he would pit the Chengguo Mansion as soon as his voice changed.

If it weren't for Zhan Changdong, there would have been those who had retreated to advance before Chengguogong, and the crisis in the court this morning would have been enough to resolve, and as for the rest of the matter, they could have thought about it in the long term and then thought of a way.

But Zhan Changdong stepped in sideways, not only used Cheng Guogong's own words to block him, but also sent his second uncle to prison.

The third prince gritted his teeth with a gloomy face and said: "After you returned to Beijing, I wanted to befriend you many times, and you just refused, but now you actually come to harm my grandfather, who made you do this?!" ”

Zhan Changdong suddenly frowned: "Did Your Highness misunderstand something, Weichen eats the king's Lu to share the king's worries, and what he does is just what Weichen should do." ”

"And the ministers of the court are also bent on clearing up the grievances for Grandpa Chengguo, and they don't want to implicate Grandpa Cheng in Cheng's affairs, how could you have become a prince who wants to harm Chengguo when it comes to your mouth?"

He held the jade wat in his hand, looked up at the third prince and said,

"Wei Chen knows that Grandpa Guo is definitely not the kind of person who deceives the monarch and bends the law for bribes, and Second Master Zheng must also be wronged, so he proposes to let His Majesty strictly investigate this matter and return their innocence as soon as possible, is there anything unspeakable about His Royal Highness who doesn't want to find out the truth earlier?"

The third prince's face changed: "What nonsense are you talking about?" Of course I want to! ”

"Since Your Highness also agrees with Wei Chen, then why are you still angry?"

Zhan Changdong tilted his head slightly with a puzzled face, "Weichen didn't want to get involved in this matter, it was because he couldn't bear to let Grandpa Guo be aggrieved that he would reluctantly come forward, I knew that His Highness would misunderstand me like this, and I didn't have to help Grandpa Guo speak just now, but now I am still blamed by His Highness like this!" ”

The Third Prince: "......"

A group of courtiers who pricked up their ears and eavesdropped: "......"

What a shameless man!

The third prince grew up in the royal family, although he was not the prince, he was also the successor, and he was assisted by the Chengguo Mansion, and his status was far higher than that of other princes.

Those people in the court didn't give three points of face when they saw him, and they spoke respectfully, it was the first time he had seen a courtier who dared to be so shameless in front of him, if it weren't for the smile and voice on Zhan Changdong's face that hadn't changed from beginning to end, he would have believed his nonsense.

"Zhan Changdong, don't think that I can't help you if you enter the Metropolitan Procuratorate, believe me or not......"

"Your Highness!!"

The third prince was so angry that he didn't choose to say anything, but before he could release a cruel word, he was categorically interrupted by Cheng Guogong, who caught up behind.

Cheng Guogong walked quickly to the third prince and glanced at Zhan Changdong deeply.

He knew very well that he had underestimated the person in front of him, and he also knew that the third prince was not his opponent at all, and he didn't know what to say when he was provoked.

Cheng Guogong pressed his hand towards the angry third prince, and then said to Zhan Changdong: "Lord Zhan has been away from Beijing for several years, I don't know when the old man offended you?" ”

Zhan Changdong was surprised: "What did Grandpa Guo say, could it be that even you, like the Third Highness, think that I made a mistake in proposing that the people of your mansion confront Zhou Qi?" ”

Cheng Guogong was silent for a moment when he heard this, even if some things are known to everyone, they can't be announced.

It was Emperor Tianqing who ordered his son to be imprisoned and investigated, in order to "wash away" their innocence for the Chengguo Mansion.

Zhan Changdong's proposal didn't seem to have any problems at first glance, and even all of this was "begged" by himself at that time, and he also said that they were going to become a prince, but it was like this, and they couldn't say anything about their suffering.

If he wants to respond to Zhan Changdong's words, wouldn't he tell everyone that they are thieves in the Chengguo Mansion and dare not let people ask questions.

Cheng Guogong's eyes were gloomy, and he said coldly for a moment: "Of course Master Zhan is right, the old man is sitting upright, why be afraid of these." ”

Zhan Changdong smiled back: "What Grandpa Guo said is true." ”

The third prince was so angry that he exploded.

Cheng Guogong's face became more and more gloomy, and he saw that Zhan Changdong was not entering, he didn't want to say more to him, so he directly grabbed the third prince who wanted to step forward and said, "Your Highness, let's go!" ”

"Grandpa......" The third prince was annoyed.

Cheng Guogong said in a deep voice: "This is not the place to speak, go back to the house first." ”

The third prince reacted that he was still in the palace here, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that the courtiers around him were standing not far away and looking at this side, he glanced at Zhan Changdong fiercely, and then he closed his mouth and followed Cheng Guogong to brush his sleeves away.

watched such a big scene with his own eyes, and saw Zhan Changdong leaving Cheng Guogong angrily, and the courtiers around couldn't help but whisper.

"This Zhan Changdong has just returned to Beijing, and he dares to dig a pit for the Chengguo Mansion like this, so he is not afraid of turning back and having an accident."

"What is he afraid of, he is now holding an important position in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and he has His Majesty's favor, as long as he doesn't make a big mistake, who dares to touch him?"

"But the third prince is a ...... after all"

"No matter how much you come out, you're not a prince."

After saying a word, I remembered the affairs of the princes in the palace, as well as the tense relationship between the prince and His Majesty in the past few years, and I didn't dare to say more, but I just changed my voice and said,

"And you're afraid you don't know, this Zhan Yushi was a bold lord when he was in charge of the six branches in Beijing many years ago, and there were few people in the court who were not impeached by him back then, and when his temper came up, he even dared to point his nose at the rebellious one back then, how could he be afraid of a Chengguo Mansion?"

"Rebel against him? Who is it? ”

"Who are you talking about?"

The man said two words silently, and the faces of the others changed instantly.
