Chapter 35: The Prince's Warning
"Daddy, the child doesn't understand why Daddy made such a proposal in the early court. This matter obviously has a lot to do with the prince, and the father proposed to hand over the matter to his brother-in-law, wouldn't that be retreating the brother-in-law into the fire pit? ”
"If the brother-in-law fails to investigate clearly, it is a failure of the emperor's order, if the brother-in-law investigates something, he will offend the prince, no matter what, the brother-in-law will not be able to get out of the way. Daddy, why are you ......?"
Wen Zijin looked at Wen Haoxuan and asked puzzled.
Hearing this, Wen Haoxuan slowly opened his eyes, and a trace of helplessness flashed on his face.
"Kid, you're only scratching the surface. Although this matter was proposed for his father, even if his father didn't say it, His Majesty would hand over this matter to Chu Mo to do. Your Majesty is planning to pull my Taishi Mansion into the water together. ”
"It's not so much that it was handed over to Chu Mo, but that it was handed over to our Taishi Mansion."
Hearing this, Wen Zijin also came to his senses immediately after thinking about it.
After all, Chu Mo is the son-in-law of the Taishi Mansion, if this matter is handed over to Chu Mo for investigation, the Taishi Mansion will naturally help him.
And this matter is clear to anyone with a discerning eye, the person behind this scene must be the prince, Li Deyi's behavior is nothing more than wanting to pull the Taishi Mansion into the water together, and not let him be alone!
"Well, that's already a sure thing, and it doesn't make much sense to say more. Now you go to the Shizi Mansion first and inform your brother-in-law about this matter, as for your brother-in-law to do this, we can only take a step to see it. ”
Wen Haoxuan said with a wry smile.
"Yes!"
Wen Zijin nodded, then asked the carriage to stop, jumped out of the carriage, and rushed to the Shizi Mansion alone.
And Wen Haoxuan instructed the groom and returned directly to the Taishi Mansion.
It's just that what Wen Haoxuan didn't expect was that he had just gotten off the carriage and was about to enter the mansion, when a shout suddenly came from behind him.
Wen Haoxuan turned his head and saw that the person who came was the strategist beside the prince, and he was a Zhou Chengzhou.
Seeing Yu Chengzhou for the first time, Wen Haoxuan couldn't help frowning, and at the same time, he saw Yu Chengzhou arching his hand towards him and said with a smile.
"Master Wen, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to talk to the Grand Master, and he is waiting for the Grand Master at the Longyuan Restaurant at the moment."
Talk?
As for what to talk about, Wen Haoxuan naturally knew it. But even so, he did not refuse, but followed Yu Chengzhou into the carriage parked at the corner and rushed to Longyuan Restaurant.
Longyuan Restaurant, in the box.
Li Gan and Wen Haoxuan sat opposite each other, except for the two of them, there was no one else in the room, and even Yu Chengzhou could only be at the door, waiting for Li Gan's orders.
"I don't know if the prince has found an old minister, but what's the matter?"
Although Wen Haoxuan knew it, he still asked with a pretending to be confused.
"Master, don't worry. First try the signature tea of this Dragon Garden Restaurant. As he spoke, Li Gan stood up and personally poured tea for Wen Haoxuan, and at the same time continued: "Master, please!" ”
Wen Haoxuan smiled lightly, picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip, and then sighed: "The West Lake Longjing of this Longyuan Restaurant is really a must, the old man has been an official in the court for decades, if it wasn't for the prince's invitation today, I'm afraid this Taishi would not be able to taste such a good tea in his life." ”
"Prince, this pot of tea, I'm afraid it's not cheap, right?"
When Li Gan heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud and said: "Taishi is polite, but it's just a pot of tea. ”
Wen Haoxuan hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Forget it, although this tea is good, I'm afraid this Taishi will not be blessed." Prince, if you have anything, just say it. ”
Hearing this, Li Gan's face froze with a smile, and his face immediately turned pale, looking at Wen Haoxuan and said, "Taishi, this prince has something unclear, and I ask Taishi for advice." In this investigation of Shen Simiao's corruption and perversion of the law, the Taishi was obviously able to keep himself alone, but why did he finally propose to his father that the matter be investigated by the prince of Beiliang. Isn't the Taishi worried that the prince of Beiliang can't investigate anything, and the father will blame him? ”
Wen Haoxuan put down the teacup, looked at Li Gan and said, "Prince, do you really think that this is the proposal of this Taishi?" ”
Hearing this, Li Gan's face changed, wasn't it Wen Haoxuan's proposal? Don't......
Thinking of this, Li Gan's heart froze, and it seemed that all this was what his father meant.
Immediately, Li Gan's face gradually changed, and a smile appeared on his face again: "I see, since this is the case, then please ask the prince to help the prince tell the prince of Beiliang, if you encounter any trouble during the investigation, you can come to the prince for help, in this scene in Kyoto, if there is the help of the prince, it can save the prince a lot of trouble." ”
"Thank you over there for the prince's kindness, the old man will definitely convey it."
Wen Haoxuan stood up and arched his hand towards Li Qian, and then said: "If the prince has nothing else to do, the old man over there can't be accompanied, the little girl has been married for two days, and today is the time to return to the door, I hope the prince will not be surprised." ”
"Taishi is polite, if Taishi has something, then let's go first." Li Qian smiled and waved his hand.
Wen Haoxuan bowed his hand again and said goodbye to Li Gan.
After Wen Haoxuan left, Yu Chengzhou walked into the room, and at this moment, Li Gan's face had become gloomy.
"Prince, what does the prince mean?"
Yu Chengzhou asked,
"Hmph, this old horseman, I hope he can understand the meaning of today's invitation from the prince, if this old horseman is still so stubborn, then no wonder the prince is ruthless!"
Li Qian did not answer Yu Chengzhou's words, but said in a deep voice.
Walking out of the door of Longyuan Restaurant, Wen Haoxuan got into the carriage that had been waiting for a long time and headed towards the Taishi Mansion.
On the carriage, Wen Haoxuan's face at the moment was no longer as full of smiles as before, but looked a little gloomy.
"Li Gan, Li Gan, is this your reminder to the old man today? However, the prince is only the prince after all, although he is the prince, but whether you will be able to ascend the throne smoothly as the prince in the future is still unknown, I hope you don't do anything that touches the old man's bottom line, otherwise, the old man doesn't mind letting this Dawu Dynasty change a prince! ”
As a veteran of the Three Dynasties, a figure who can make Li Deyi jealous, if Wen Haoxuan doesn't have any ability, how can he sit on the throne. In his eyes, Li Gan is just a mere prince, which is not enough for him to put in his eyes at all.
Although the removal of the crown prince is a matter of great importance, with his current status in the court, if this matter is met by him, Li Deyi will have to weigh the pressure brought by the joint pressure of hundreds of civil and military officials.
Not long after, the carriage returned to the Taishi Mansion, and Wen Haoxuan was not bothered by these things, as he just said, today is the day when Wen Qingyuan Chu Mo went home, and after returning to the Taishi Mansion, Wen Haoxuan put all his energy on the matter of the girl's return to the door......
