Shen sat next to Xue Nuo drenched, and Wu Jinliang couldn't wait to ask, "Little Lord Shen, how is the prince's side?" ”

Shen opened his mouth and just wanted to speak, but was blocked by the teacup that was suddenly sent to him.

"Master Wu, reincarnation has to make people take a breath first."

Xue Nuo looked at Wu Jinliang angrily, didn't he see that his face was white like a ghost?

Wu Jinliang choked.

Shen looked at her stare at people with a teacup, her dark eyes were dyed with a smile, and after taking the tea in her hand, he patted her on the head, asking her not to sweep Wu Jinliang's face too much.

"Don't worry, Lord Wu, the prince's side is fine."

After taking a sip of hot tea into his mouth to dispel the chill on his body, Shen said:

"The Jinlin Guard and the forbidden army outside the East Palace have all been withdrawn, and Your Majesty has no suspicion of the prince, and will no longer embarrass the prince because of Yongzhao's old affairs in a short period of time, and Your Majesty has also promised that tomorrow morning the court will discuss with several elders in the court and reactivate the old ministers we mentioned before."

Wu Jinliang was shocked: "Your Majesty agreed?" ”

Shen Zhongkang and Shen Zhengtian couldn't help but look sideways, how could Emperor Tianqing let go so easily?

Shen didn't hide it from them, and briefly talked about what happened tonight.

Wu Jinliang knew that the palace was dangerous, but he didn't expect this to happen, and he couldn't help but be frightened into a cold sweat when he heard Shen and the prince fooling Emperor Tianqing.

Shen Zhengtian couldn't help but reprimand: "It's too risky for you to do this. ”

The emperor's heart is unpredictable, in case Emperor Qing is not moved, in case he does not have the so-called soft-heartedness and guilt towards the lord of Yuanyao, but believes that the prince and the traitor Yu are colluding, and there is no respect for him.

Then they simply lost all their precautions tonight and sent themselves to the door on charge, and it is possible to abolish the prince.

Shen Zhongkang didn't expect that the prince and Shen Ke would choose to do this in the end, he frowned and looked at Shen Ke: "Did the prince want to do this, or did you mention it?" ”

"I mentioned it, and that's what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince meant."

Shen took the teacup and put it in the palm of his hand to warm it, rubbed the rim of the cup with his fingertips and said,

"His Royal Highness said that he couldn't protect Princess Yongzhao back then, and he couldn't save the county lord of Yuanzhao, and now he doesn't want to ruin even the little thoughts they have left, and His Royal Highness is a person of great affection, and in the past few years, because of the old things of Yongzhao, he has been frustrated everywhere, If he suddenly gets rid of Princess Yongzhao, then it will make His Majesty suspicious."

"Your Majesty is very suspicious, and he only believes what he sees, rather than trying to make His Majesty feel that the prince is vain and wronged, and pretends to flatter, it is better to make him feel that His Royal Highness attaches great importance to love and righteousness but can distinguish between priority and priority."

"As long as Your Majesty knows, although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince remembers the love of his aunt and nephew, he values him more as a father and prince, and even if someone attacks the prince about Princess Yongzhao in the future, His Majesty will not be easily angry and alienate the prince because of this."

The emperor is also a human being, and he also has seven emotions and six desires.

He himself was ruthless for the sake of imperial power, but he didn't want his son to be like him.

On the premise of knowing that the crown prince chose the relationship between father and son and the position of prince, Emperor Tianqing would be willing to see a son who values affection and righteousness, is straightforward, and does not hide or calculate against him.

This son still has a weakness that he can handle at any time.

Shen Zhongkang: When they heard this, they didn't know what to say for a while.

Xue Nuo leaned back in his chair and pursed his lips and sneered silently: Hypocrisy!

Knowing that the crown prince was fine, Wu Jinliang and the others were relieved, and Emperor Tianqing agreed to use the old ministers of Yongzhao, which was obviously a complete estrangement to the prince, which was undoubtedly great news for them.

Wu Jinliang and Shen Zhongkang discussed the next matter, and analyzed how to investigate the case of the Criminal Department.

When he left, he still had the appearance of weak and worried legs before, and when he walked out in the heavy rain with an umbrella, there was a joy in his back that could not be hidden.

Xue Nuo disliked the panic in the room, and stood under the porch by himself and waited.

The wind and rain blew on the lantern hanging in front of the door, and the foggy light swayed and fell on Xue Nuo, so that people could not see the expression on her face, and she could only be seen leaning on the beam like a child, stretching out her hand to stir the rain falling on the eaves.

Shen Zhongkang looked outside and said, "Today's incident is that I wronged him. ”

Shen Zhengtian said on the side: "Don't blame my father for this, after the accident in the Criminal Department, we just thought that someone wanted to kill Wu Jinliang and Chengguo Gong with a knife, but who knew that their purpose was actually the prince." ”

"Changyuan Xun Xue Nuo just said a rough idea, he can think through the key so quickly, and even let people prepare to retreat in advance to relieve the siege for the prince, even Li Zhan Changdong also thought of it in advance, and it is rumored that the wisdom is like a demon."

Xue Nuo came to the Shen family too suddenly, and it was coincidental that he appeared in Jiangnan.

Not to mention that Shen Zhongkang was suspicious, even he was actually suspicious before.

Shen Zhengtian said: "This son is by no means an ordinary person, I always feel that he is probably not as simple as Xue Chenyizi......

"Whether he is Xue Chen's righteous son or not, he will not hurt the prince." Shen looked at Xue Nuo's gaze with an extremely gentle gaze.

Shen Zhongkang turned his head to look at him: "What do you know?" ”

Shen shook his head: "I don't know, I just can feel that Arnold is different from the prince and the Shen family." ”

When it comes to others, Xue Nuo never refrains.

But when it comes to the Shen family and the prince, she will always be soft-hearted.

Shen Zhongkang thought of today's events, remembered that Xue Nuo had solved his crisis for the prince, remembered that she sent Zhan Changdong to the capital and collected Zhang Jun for them, and even the court and political pattern was extremely transparent, and also guided the prince to let him grow up and have the heart of a king, and use courtiers without sticking to one pattern.

The prince's selection of virtuous talents not only freed him from the siege, won the trust of Emperor Tianqing, but also won his reputation.

After tomorrow morning, the list of officials to fill the vacancy will be known, and the status of the East Palace will be more stable.

The virtuous monarch accepts the virtuous ministers, and there is no need to recruit them, and the prince can also be supported by the courtiers.

The most important thing is that whether it is Caoyun or the matter of the household department, Xue Nuo has never profited for himself, which Shen Zhongkang couldn't help but ease.

He said: "Maybe what you said is right, but I am too suspicious, and he has no ill will towards the prince and the Shen family, but you have to understand that there are some things that you would rather think about than be gullible, and neither the Shen family nor the prince can withstand the twists and turns." ”

Shen Ke's expression was gentle: "I know." ”

He didn't blame Shen Zhongkang for being suspicious of Xue Nuo, and he was not qualified to blame it, if it weren't for his grandfather's prudence and thoughtfulness over the years, the prince would have lost his position in the East Palace long ago, and the Shen family would have been beaten to the bottom.

Shen didn't say anything about Xue Nuo, but mentioned the crown prince: "Grandfather, I heard the crown princess talk about the incident seven years ago today, she said that the crown prince had been there when the accident occurred in Princess Yongzhao's mansion, but later he was forcibly tied back by the eldest princess and An Guogong, do you know about this?" ”

Shen Zhongkang nodded: "I know." ”

Shen was puzzled: "Then why have you never mentioned it before?" ”

Shen Zhongkang's expression was calm: "Why mention the past, the eldest princess has committed a taboo for this, and saying it will only cause her trouble." ”
