Chapter 169: Not only is he stupid, but he is also stupid and doesn't know it!
After enduring and forbearing, Princess Yun'an could only say to the saint: "It was the people's women who misunderstood Lord Yu before, and the courtiers didn't know that Mama Liu had done such a hurtful thing, and they didn't know Qing ...... Qu Qingqing is the daughter of an impostor, please don't blame the saint and Lord Yu! ”
"In that case, let's disperse!" The saint was impatient and continued to deal with a stupid woman like Princess Yun'an, and did not say any more words to punish Yu Fengzhi, and ordered everyone to retreat.
After everyone left, the saint said to the eunuch beside him: "Go and find out, who sent the assassin to surround Yu Fengzhi!" ”
The eunuch said in surprise: "What does the Holy Lord...... This was not Princess Yun'an's idea? ”
Sheng Shang sneered: "She doesn't have the courage or the ability!" ”
If the Yun'an Palace's Mansion could mobilize so many people for assassination, how could he tolerate him! The stupid woman must have been taken advantage of.
The eunuch bowed ignorantly, "Yes, the old slave will send someone to investigate!" ”
A few days later, the eunuch hunched over and approached the imperial study, presented a secret letter to the saint, and said, "Saint, this is a superstition from the secret guard, you can see it. ”
The Holy Lord put aside the fold in his hand, took the secret letter in the eunuch's hand, and read it at a glance.
The more he looked at it, the deeper his brow wrinkled, and at last he was so angry that he crumpled the superstition into a ball, and swept all the folds on the table to the ground.
"Holy ......"
The old eunuch called out in fear, squatted down and picked up a notebook, and then persuaded: "Holy Lord, take care of the dragon body!" ”
The saint said angrily: "Take care! How to take care! Look at what the prince has done! ”
As he spoke, he threw the secret letter on the old eunuch, who took the letter, hesitated and unfolded it and looked at it quickly.
After looking at it, his pupils couldn't help but dilate a little, and he only said in surprise: "This ...... This...... How so! ”
He also thought that there was progress in investigating the assassination of Lord Yu a few days ago, and after reading it, he realized that there was a problem with the improved bow and arrow map that the prince gave to the saint a few days ago.
After the prince presented this drawing, he suggested large-scale manufacturing, and the saint approved a batch of silver taels from the Ministry of Industry and agreed to make a part of it first, but the prince was anxious for quick success, and even privately forced the Ministry of Industry Shangshu to embezzle the silver taels that were ready to supply weapons to the Northwest Army, all of which were used to make new bows and arrows.
A few days ago, the bows and arrows had been made, but in the event of a heavy rain, the warehouse was damp, and the officials in charge of the warehouse asked people to take out the bows and arrows to dry, but a few days later, the bows and arrows had slight cracks in their bows, and they could not be brought to the battlefield at all.
After inspection, not many of the tens of thousands of bows and arrows are usable, and even if they are intact, their range and utility are far inferior to those of the past.
If according to the original arrangement of the saint, this time to make an improved bow and arrow, the imperial court will only lose a batch of silver taels, and now because of the prince's stupidity and greed, not only lost a lot of silver, but also delayed the military situation of the Northwest Army, how can the emperor not be angry!
In addition, Yu Fengzhi's case has also made progress.
Although the assassins captured by Yu Fengzhi have not confessed the mastermind behind them, the secret guards still found clues.
After Yu Fengzhi left the palace that day, he did not return to the Marquis of Jingxuan's mansion, but went to the prince's mansion non-stop.
It is said that it took a long time to go around before the prince of Jingxuan was sent out of the prince's mansion, and the person was already "drunk" and unconscious after being sent out.
Pei Shizi's health has not been very good, how could he get drunk so much? And if Yu Fengzhi had an accident on his side, it was impossible not to report to Pei Shizi, who was in the Prince's Mansion, not only did he leave the Prince's Mansion, but he also got drunk, no matter how he thought about it, it was not right.
The holy general passed the crown prince into the palace, and the prince obviously also received the news from the Ministry of Works, knelt tremblingly in front of the saint, and bowed: "Meet my father." ”
"Look at the stupid things you've done!" Shengshang glanced at the prince with a calm face, and threw a book of folds in the prince's face, "This is what you said about a powerful weapon!" ”
The prince was frightened, and hurriedly kowtowed a few times on the pilgrimage, "Father is angry, father is angry, this matter is the fault of the son, yes, it is the son's who didn't notice it for a while, and mistakenly believed in the traitor!" ”
The saint opened his eyes, "Explain it to me!" ”
The prince gritted his teeth, raised his head and said: "Actually, in fact, this drawing is not drawn by Erchen, but by Pei Jue, the prince of Jingxuan, who dedicated this drawing to his son, and he made a strong effort to ensure that there is no problem with this improved map, and the son is wrong, and the fault is that he believes in Jingxuan Hou Shizi too much, and believes in Jingxuan Hou too much, which is ...... This makes people increase the number of builds, and the sons also want to share their father's worries, and they really have no other thoughts, please ask their father to see it! ”
Listening to the prince's words, the saint almost laughed angrily.
In the past, he only thought that this son was a little stupid, but now he found that he was not only stupid, but also stupid without knowing it!
When he invited merit, he never mentioned Jingxuan Hou Shizi, and now that something has happened, he pushed people out of the top bag, do you think you are very smart, and you think that he, the emperor, can't figure out anything!
The more the saint thought about it, the more angry he became, and even figured out the assassination of Yu Fengzhi.
This drawing is from Pei Shizi's hand, and the prince will not want Pei Shizi and his wife to tell the matter in order to invite merit.
Only the dead keep the secret!
Unloading the mill and killing the donkey, this son is really promising!
The saint kicked the prince to the ground, turned to the old eunuch and said, "Go and pass on Pei Shizi and Yu Fengzhi!" ”
Not long after, the two of them were brought to the front of the temple, and they made a pilgrimage together, "See the saint!" ”
Looking at the pair of beautiful people kneeling in front of him, the saint who was still in anger felt that his anger had subsided inexplicably, and he had to say that people who were born well did have the magic of demagoguery, not to mention that the two people in front of him could indeed be called the best among people.
He spit out the turbidity qi, looked at Pei Jue and said, "The prince said that this bow and arrow improvement map is from you, but is it true?" ”
At this time, the prince looked at Pei Jue gloomily, and said, "Pei Jue, you trust you so much, you dare to harm Gu!" You clearly said that this bow and arrow has a longer range and greater power than the previous bow and arrow after it is made, and it is a powerful weapon, but you see, the bow and arrow made by the Ministry of Industry according to the design drawings are not to mention used to fight, as long as the bow is full, the bow body will crack, do you know how heavy the loss of Dali is this time! Pei Jue, what kind of heart do you have! ”
Although the saint was disgusted with what the prince had done, if Pei Jue really said that, then he would not be able to shirk his responsibility for this matter, so he moved his gaze to Pei Jue again and waited for his explanation.
Pei Juejian's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he made a gesture on the pilgrimage, "Holy Lord, this bow and crossbow improvement diagram is indeed from the hands of Weichen and Neizi, and the minister has indeed said similar words to His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
