Chapter 549: The terrain is complicated

So of course, they also know that they must not reveal the slightest mistake, which may only make the emperor mind them, or have suspicions.

Otherwise, if the emperor arouses the slightest suspicion, then they will have a very bad time in the future, and in this matter, they don't dare to make other excessive moves, for fear that it may breed the emperor's doubts and worries.

After such a rebellious thing as Song Rongxi, the third prince, these ministers took it seriously and did not dare to have any contact with any prince again.

At least now the emperor has not abdicated, and even the crown prince has not been determined, which means that the emperor himself does not want to delegate power, but wants to monopolize the power of the dynasty.

On the contrary, they have too much contact with any prince, even if they don't have any intention of rebelling, or the idea of which prince they want to be attached to, they can't stand the emperor after such an experience, he may think too much, and they will question it.

In order to avoid this possibility, of course, they did not dare to say anything more about this matter, nor did they dare to have too much contact with it.

In the same way, it is also for such a reason that the ministers will bow their heads one after another while listening to what the emperor said, and everyone looks respectful.

Even if the old minister with a very high position of power and prestige in time is also like this, he does not dare to rely on his seniority to be relatively old, so that he feels that he has a different status in front of the emperor.

Perhaps they could have imagined such a gesture before, but now it is very different, at least in this matter, they see it very clearly.

And they can understand very well what the situation is now, and if they do this, what kind of suspicion and treatment they will suffer.

The emperor, who was sitting on the dragon chair, looked at the ministers below, as well as the princes and princes, all of them lowered their heads and looked like they were pleasing to the eyes.

Although the expression on his face was not too relaxed, he was a little satisfied in his eyes, even if he was now wary of the few princes in front of him, as well as the Eighth Prince, and they were all on guard, and they were completely guarded against them

But in the final analysis, in this matter, no matter what else, at least now they have shown such a posture, which means that at least they can't do something like Song Rongxi, let alone after this incident.

If they are still so stupid that they feel that the emperor did not guard against them, and do the same behavior, it is really stupid.

It is even simpler than the idea of the third prince, and the final result is not the slightest abnormality except that it will be worse than the third prince.

It was also for such a reason, and soon he saw the emperor here in front of a circle of ministers and princes, slowly spoke, and said in a serious voice.

"Now, although the whole process seems to have calmed down, the traitor Song Rongxi has left a lot of remnants in the capital."

"So when I return to the court today, I also want to warn you Aiqing, all Aiqing recently, it's better not to go out of Beijing, so as to eliminate the rebel party!"

I saw that after the emperor said such a thing, the ministers and princes under the court were very surprised.

Although they also knew that the emperor would definitely severely punish the traitors who had already occupied the faction of the three princes, they did not expect that the emperor would directly give such an order.

Let all the ministers definitely not be able to leave the capital in the near future, so as to solve all the remnants of the three princes.

Although they felt very surprised, since the emperor had already ordered like this, they had no other way to go after that, except to fall silent.

After all, no matter what else, at least in this one thing is always very important, not to mention that since the situation has developed to this point, then compared to other things, such a path is the best shortcut.

And as long as the emperor cleared the remaining party during this period of time, they continued to stay in the capital, doing what they should do step by step.

Absolutely do nothing that may arouse the emperor's suspicion, that is, it is normal, and it will not have a bad impact on them, or it will be executed by the emperor as a traitor to the three princes.

So because of this, when the emperor finished speaking, he saw that the ministers and princes below responded in unison.

"Yes, the ministers obey!"

Xu was sick in bed for a period of time, which made the emperor begin to doubt whether his power and majesty had been damaged, but now seeing that the ministers and princes in front of him were still able to respond with the lowest posture.

On the contrary, he was relieved a lot, even in this situation, the emperor, for several princes, and the eighth prince's suspicion and vigilance still did not decrease by half a point, and there was no less than the slightest.

But fortunately, now seeing that the five princes and the eighth prince are not excessively powerful because of the merits of this time, they still have their posture as princes, and naturally they have not put them in a more opposing direction.

Especially among them, some of them are the eight princes, for the emperor, his biggest thorn in his eye now can indeed be said to be the eighth prince, although it is not at the level of a thorn in the eye.

After all, he also knew that the Eighth Prince was his son, and he didn't want to solve the Eighth Prince when he didn't do anything rebellious.

It's just that he is wary of him, just in case the eighth prince may have the same rebellious heart as the third prince and be wary.

But it is also for such a reason that the eighth prince can see it very clearly, and he also understands it in his heart.

Now that the emperor is wary of him, and even has put it on the surface, he must press himself down even more, and he can't pop up a little bit of point.

And for the eighth prince, he had actually been prepared for a long time, and after finding Yun Xiaoshuang back and doing all the things he had to do, he would resign and return to his fiefdom as soon as possible.

Guarding his small fiefdom and living his free life as the eighth prince, it is good to continue to stay in the capital and worry all day long.

I also have to consider whether if he helps out, whether it will arouse the emperor's suspicion, and whether it may affect him, and may even affect all the people who have contact with him.

Just like Zhao Mocheng and Yun Xiaoshuang, others can not be mentioned, but for the Eighth Prince, he understands very clearly, no matter how much the emperor has doubts about the two of them, he is now suspicious.

And how to trust, but Zhao Mocheng and Yun Xiaoshuang are very loyal, as long as the emperor does not understand that he wants to take the two of them, or if he does it to them.

Then it is absolutely impossible for these two people to defect, and it is absolutely impossible for them to have half a sense of rebellion against the emperor.

Therefore, it is precisely because of this that the eighth prince feels that because of his relationship, the emperor has doubts about Zhao Mocheng and Yun Xiaoshuang, and he no longer trusts the two of them as much as he did at the beginning.

Many things are not handed over to them to solve, but there is a little apology, after all, between him, Zhao Mocheng and Yun Xiaoshuang, they are just gentlemen's friends.

But just because of this gentlemanly friendship between them, the emperor's suspicion of him was naturally transferred to Zhao Mocheng, and he also had such doubts about Zhao Mocheng.

Naturally, he would be concerned about this matter, and felt that it was because of his own reasons that Zhao Mocheng came to such a situation, and naturally he would feel a little indebted.

It's just that now the emperor has beaten Zhao Mocheng and Yun Xiaoshuang into the camp of the Eighth Prince's faction, no matter what Zhao Mocheng plans to do or think.

In fact, it is not half useful at all, and even after the incident of the third prince, even if the emperor looks at the eighth prince and Zhao Mocheng, they have no idea of rebellion at all.

is still suspicious of them, just in case, they may have any rebellious heart in the future, then in this matter, the eighth prince has a sense of indebtedness in his heart.

In fact, there is no solution to it, after all, he himself is also the object of suspicion and vigilance by the emperor.

Seeing that the emperor here has regained control of all the forces in the court that originated from the eight princes and the five princes who directly managed the government, into his own hands.

Because of his uneasiness, his current body has not fully recovered, but because there are too many things to be in charge of, he needs to be busy all night, and it is also a situation that makes him feel very tired.

And after Zhao Mocheng over there was looking for Yun Xiaoshuang and not getting a drop of water, he fell into a coma directly, Adjutant Zhao and Zhao Hong also simply brought people back to the capital, and after all, there was a good doctor in the capital.

Being able to help regulate Zhao Mocheng's body can also recover faster than in that barren mountain range, not to mention that Yunqi Mountain itself is not too far from the capital.

So, instead of wasting time there.

It's better to go back to the capital first, and then make another plan, and they also left people behind, and continued to look for traces of Yun Xiaoshuang near the cliff.
