Chapter 30: Something Happened in the Palace

Seeing Zhao Mu put the colored rope on his wrist, Chu Ning'er burst into tears and laughed.

She then wore another string on her wrist as well, boasting without hesitation.

"It's so good-looking, I'm afraid Daqin won't be able to find such a good-looking bracelet again."

Zhao Mu smiled indifferently and followed her thoughts.

"I agree with you."

Chu Ning'er smiled happily and took a cold sip on Zhao Mu's face.

It was this bite that kept her awake all night.

In the early morning of the next day, I fell asleep.

In the early morning, the first rays of sunlight sprinkled into Chu Ning'er's boudoir.

Zhao Mu dragged his slightly tired body out and bumped into Tianyi head-on.

"Master, there seems to be an accident in Xianyang Palace."

"Ying Zheng secretly convened ministers to discuss matters, and they were all trusted people."

Hearing this, Zhao Mu understood the meaning of Tianyi's words.

There are few sons who are trusted, presumably to avoid suspicion.

The completion of the railway is about to be put on the agenda, and nothing can happen at this time.

Nothing can affect the completion of the railway.

If someone dared to make trouble at this time, Zhao Mu didn't mind letting him taste the revenge of being retaliated by the Shura Battalion.

"Go down, I'll go to the palace to investigate in person."

Coming out of Huaqing Pavilion, Zhao Mu went straight to Xianyang Palace.

At this time, I went to ask to see my father, and there was no need to hide it.

He could have expressed his concern for the construction of the railway.

Then, ask what the discussion was.

As soon as this side ended, Zhao Gao told Yingzheng about Zhao Mu's request to see him.

"Old ten? Why is this time in the first place? ”

After hesitating, Ying Zheng still decided to summon him.

He had already guessed that Zhao Mu knew that he had secretly summoned the minister.

Or feel that they are not being reused, so they want to ask for clarification.

In the inner hall, Zhao Mu walked forward slowly and bowed his head.

"The son of the emperor to meet his father!"

Ying Zheng waved his hand and said, "What's the matter, say it bluntly." ”

Zhao Mu did not hesitate, and turned to speak.

"My father secretly summoned the ministers, but the sons were not among them."

"The son wants to know why his father wants to ignore the son and the emperor."

Ying Zheng frowned slightly, this sounded, why was there still a little grievance.

He doesn't tell the sons to have their own reasons, so why ask more.

"When will I discuss with the minister, when will it be up to you?"

Thinking of this, Ying Zheng asked again in confusion.

"Not to mention, why did you hear about my secret summoning of ministers so quickly?"

"Could it be that you still have eyeliner in this palace?"

Hearing this, Zhao Mu immediately knelt on the ground.

When he came, he had already instructed his subordinates to spread the news quietly.

In order to dispel Yingzheng's doubts and protect himself.

"Erchen will never dare, and he will never have two hearts!"

"It's just that Erchen is worried about my Daqin, and he is worried that the preparation for the construction of a half-load railway will be in vain."

"As for this matter, it was only after the palace spread that the ministers learned about it."

Ying Zheng thought about it for a while and felt that Zhao Mu's words were unreasonable.

He only thought that Lao Shi would feel that he was not being reused.

I almost forgot that the railway was about to be completed.

Now that something has happened in the palace, half of his efforts have been wasted.

"In that case, I told you that."

"Yesterday, a minister in the palace was assassinated, and although the prisoner did not succeed, he was caught."

Zhao Mu was stunned, he didn't expect it to be such an incident.

But why don't you summon the princes?

Could it be ......

"Father, it wasn't the minister who was assassinated?"

"And my brothers?"

Hearing this, Ying Zheng sighed helplessly.

"Sure enough, you can't hide anything from Lao Shi, you're right, it was your seventh brother who was assassinated."

Zhao Mu turned his head incredulously.

The Seventh Son? Why is it the Seventh Son?

He is usually kind to the government and the opposition, speaks little and does things neatly.

Although it is not so outstanding, it has managed to make almost everyone like it.

Compared to the third son who likes to come out, there is no reason to assassinate him.

Could it be that this seventh brother also hides an ulterior secret?

Zhao Mu was helpless at this time, it seemed that there was no trustworthy person in the government and the opposition.

"When I heard the news, I reacted the same way as you."

"That's why I didn't summon you sons, so that you don't worry."

Hearing this, Zhao Mu figured it out.

Why did he see many soldiers on the way here?

It turned out to be to increase the intensity of guards in the palace.

Ensure the safety of several sons and prevent thieves from committing crimes again.

"Father, you just said that the thief was caught?"

"So where are the people now? The son wanted to meet him. ”

The interrogation of prisoners has always been entrusted to the subordinates.

Now that Zhao Mu has mentioned it, Ying Zheng is not easy to refuse.

"I've been sent to a dungeon, pending interrogation."

Zhao Mu said goodbye to Yingzheng and rushed towards the dungeon.

Judging from what has happened recently, there seems to be an undercurrent surging in the palace.

A huge net was slowly opening its mouth and swallowing it towards them.

He understands this incident even more.

No one in the government and the opposition can be trusted, and everyone is inconsistent, desperate for their goals.

or the name of the Son of Heaven, or glory and wealth, or find peace in the world.

In the dungeon, several jailers sat around and laughed.

Without paying attention at all, the tenth prince Zhao Mu was already standing behind them.

One of the jailers found out and didn't care.

When he saw that this person was dressed gorgeously, he knew that he had come to visit the prison.

"Pay a hundred taels of silver, and see who you want."

"Hey, you can only be outside, and if you want to go in, it's another price."

When Zhao Mu heard this, his eyes suddenly became sharp.

It turns out that corruption is not only in modern times, but also has signs as early as Daqin.

For a hundred taels of silver, you can enter and exit the dungeon at will, and you can even shuttle freely for a large amount of money.

If he puts a thousand taels of gold on this table today.

Wouldn't it be possible to take the prisoner away?

The other jailer laughed and inadvertently turned around.

He looked at Zhao Mu and was frightened.

If he is not mistaken, I am afraid that the person in front of him is not the tenth prince Zhao Mu!

He sat on his knees and kept knocking his head.

"Ten sons, ten sons! It's all a misunderstanding! ”

Hearing this, the other jailers wiped their eyes in disbelief.

, this dungeon hasn't been to a famous family for many years.

But anyone with some status and status, how can they be locked up here.

It has long been redeemed, who wants to suffer this sin.

"Ten sons? What a ten-year-old man! ”

When the jailers recognized Zhao Mu, their intestines were about to repent.

The jailer, who was the first to speak, was even more frightened and peed his pants.

"Ask the ten sons to be kind, little one...... The little ones are just talking and playing. ”

Zhao Mu snorted coldly, he didn't have time to deal with these people now.

But with this guard, if he comes a little later, I'm afraid that all the prisoners will escape.

"Take me to see the prisoners who were imprisoned this morning, and I'll clean you up later."

Hearing this, the jailers hurriedly flattered and led the way, trying to hide the panic in their hearts.
