But without waiting for the emperor here to relax, he saw that the third prince secretly investigated that the eighth prince had a sum of money of unknown origin when he was controlling the water in Yuzhou, and the amount was not small.

Although on the surface, the eighth prince and the third prince are like people in the same royal family, and there is no conflict of power and interests, not to mention that the eighth prince has always been in his fief in the past.

There are even fewer people who come to this palace, and they will not pose any threat to the three princes.

But since the eighth prince entered the palace this time, coupled with the contacts with Zhao Mocheng, it began to make the emperor suspicious of the eighth prince.

Similarly, in order to win the emperor's approval and prove that he is the third prince on the emperor's side, he will naturally try his best to pick the thorn of the eighth prince.

will not let him be hated by the eighth prince, but it can make the emperor jealous of the eighth prince and trust him a little more.

It was for this reason that when the emperor listened to the words of the third prince, his face was extremely bad: "Rongxi, you should understand that these things, if they are not conclusive evidence, they are the crime of framing?" ”

And the three princes who have investigated it are too clear that even if this news is not completely true, the emperor will definitely be suspicious of the prince, and will definitely not tell him where the source of this news is.

Therefore, even if what the third prince investigated, even if it was only some skin, he could still answer with the most honest attitude in the face of such questions as the emperor.

"Qi Yu father, what the son said is true, even if the reason is not comprehensive, the investigation of the son may not be comprehensive, but as a prince, when he controls the water, he receives a sum of money from unknown sources, I am afraid that it will ......"

Even if the words of the third prince are not yet complete, but now under this kind of questioning conversation.

His meaning is very obvious, and he doesn't even need the emperor to guess much, he can understand what the three princes mean in these unfinished words.

If this place is a fief of the prince, there may be some explanations, but this is not his fiefdom, and there is no shop for the eighth prince to do business, no matter how he thinks, he will not be able to suddenly get such a large amount of property like he is now.

It is precisely because of this reason that the third prince will investigate this matter, and after telling the emperor, the emperor, who was already afraid of the eighth prince Song Zhehao, began to doubt him.

After all, it seems that no matter what they say about this matter, they can't imagine one, and it is extremely reasonable to defend the eighth prince.

Especially when they already have doubts in their hearts, it is even more impossible to help the eighth prince defend themselves in their hearts.

If it is said that the eighth prince has just returned to the capital, perhaps the emperor will directly suppress this matter secretly because of the mind that he attaches great importance to him, and then conduct an investigation to return the eighth prince's innocence.

But now that the emperor is already wary of the eighth prince, not only will he not take the initiative to mention this matter, but he will not take the initiative to investigate this matter before the matter is resolved.

The emperor can be in a high position, and this is enough to prove that his mind is more far-sighted than everyone else.

He also knew that if he went too deep to investigate now, he would definitely alarm the Eighth Prince in the process of investigation, and he still had no evidence.

If it is said that before the investigation of the truth of the matter, this kind of investigation of the eighth prince.

Either it will be perceived by the other party, and in the shortest possible time, all the evidence and stolen goods will be destroyed.

Either it might make him change his mind because of this doubt.

It was precisely because the emperor thought so in his heart, and he was able to understand the pros and cons, so when he thought about this, he recalled what the third prince had just said, and finally didn't say anything else.

It was only after maintaining a short silence that there was a solemn look on his face, which eased up again, and saw that he had returned to his previous solemnity, but did not contain any other excessive expression.

In a blink of an eye, he looked at the third prince kneeling in front of him again: "You get up first, I have another decision on this matter." ”

"Yes, Erchen understands." The third prince who was kneeling on the ground, after hearing these words, stood up from the ground, but he still lowered his eyes and looked respectful.

The third prince understands too well that now that the emperor has doubts about the eighth prince, he must take advantage of such a great opportunity no matter what, so that the emperor can see his "loyal heart".

Even if it is impossible, there is really no vigilance against him, but it is absolutely impossible to be overly vigilant against him at this critical juncture.

Originally, the emperor was on the bright side of the three princes. There is no excessive vigilance, and in the past, he was quite trusted, and many things could be entrusted to him.

Now that it has happened again, after the incident of the Eighth Prince, I am afraid that he will have to do more things in the future, and there are many sources among them, all of which are from the hands of the Eighth Prince.

I have to admit that the third prince is the third prince, this person is in the royal family, and he can see these bends and bends better than anyone else.

Otherwise, he didn't have to take the risk of offending the Eighth Prince, and secretly investigated what had happened to him recently, even to such a point.

After the third prince here stood up again, he saw the emperor who was thinking about something here, and took two steps in the direction where he was.

One hand was placed on Song Rongxi's shoulder: "This matter is very important, except for you and me, father and son, no one else should know, Rongxi, do you understand?" ”

The third prince felt the warm temperature placed on his shoulders by the emperor: "The sons and daughters listen to the teachings of the father, if this matter is not mentioned by the father, it will rot in the stomach of the sons and daughters, and it will never leak half a sentence from the mouths of the sons." ”

Hearing the third prince say this, the emperor's expression has completely recovered, and his eyes no longer contain other meanings.

Instead, he nodded lightly at the third prince in front of him, and then put down the hand on his shoulder, put his hands behind his back, and turned around slightly: "If I still have to deal with it, you will retreat first." ”

After listening to what the emperor said, the third prince also knew that in this matter, the effect he wanted to achieve had almost been achieved.

Now he should also retreat, and then hand over the rest of the time to the emperor.

Let him think about this matter, how to solve it, and how to let him deal with the "corrupt" eighth prince.

At this point, what the third prince said today, plus what the emperor has seen the eighth prince do during this period of time, and the possibility that he has some doubts.

All of them will naturally make the emperor suspect that the eighth prince will go to Yuzhou to control the water this time, it is very likely that it is for public and private use, hiding a lot of gold, and he also decided to start investigating this matter.

In the same way, as the emperor made a decision on this matter in his heart, and secretly had such thoughts, he saw that he called directly from the imperial study as quickly as possible: "Dark Dragon Guard." ”

The emperor just said a word, that is, he saw that in addition to the emperor, there was still no one in the imperial study.

Suddenly, I saw a man wearing a black brocade sweatshirt and a silver mask on his face, appearing out of thin air in his study!

I saw that after this man appeared out of thin air, he was directly on the ground, knelt down on one knee and lowered his head, and said in an extremely deep voice: "Dark Dragon Guard Dark One, see Your Majesty." ”

The emperor attaches great importance to the matter of the Eighth Prince, and he didn't ask anything else, so he directly opened his mouth and instructed this matter: "You lead a dark dragon guard and immediately go to Yuzhou to investigate the matter of the Eighth Prince's water control this time." ”

Xu is because this dark dragon guard himself also knows that the Eighth Prince's return to the capital recently, and in the past, the emperor did not let them pay too much attention to the affairs of the Eighth Prince.

So suddenly, he asked him to take people to Yuzhou, and he was still investigating the matter of the Eighth Prince's water control, which would make him feel surprised for a moment.

But he is also well aware of his identity, so even if he feels a little surprised, it is naturally impossible to reveal it from his face.

I saw him arch his hands and answer in a deep voice: "Yes, if you understand it secretly, you will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly!" ”

Their dark dragon guard was secretly cultivated by the emperor and used only for themselves, so they naturally only obeyed the emperor's orders.

Instead of being like Jinyiwei, without the emperor's orders, he will obey the orders of some of the palace, harem maidens and princes.

These people only obeyed the emperor's orders from beginning to end, and no one else in the palace had seen their true faces, let alone wanted to order them to do other things privately, even if it was the queen who was second only to the emperor.

After saying this, he saw the dark one get up from the ground again, and then disappear out of thin air again from the imperial study where only he and the emperor came.

It's as if he had never been here at all, and the emperor was the only one here all along.

Although the emperor did tell the three princes and mentioned this matter, except for the emperor himself and the three princes, no one can know about it.

The third prince and the emperor already knew that the eighth prince went to Yuzhou this time and got a sum of money from an unknown source and a large amount of silver.

But since the third prince sent someone to investigate this matter, it is impossible to take it seriously, and the slightest trace of clues has been cleaned up excessively, and there will be no trace left.
