Volume 1 The Heaven in the Pot Chapter 69 I Am Dugu (7)
"I'm Dugu."
In just four words, the entire City Lord's Mansion was silent, and only the sound of wind and rain could be heard raging outside the hall.
Dugu.
What is Dugu?
Sixty years ago, people would have said that they had never heard of the surname Dugu.
Forty years ago, people would say that Dugu was a hero who resisted the Beidi people going south and defended his homeland.
Twenty years ago, people would have said that Dugu was a rebel who rebelled.
And now, people will say that Dugu is the greatest surname of the empire.
The Taizu of the new dynasty is Dugu Li, and the current saint is Dugu Li's half-brother Dugu Qi, of course it is impossible for the emperor to leave the imperial capital and come to Youzhou, so who is Shen Ye's self-proclaimed Dugu?
Combined with Shen Ye's age, looking at Meng Feng who knelt down beside Shen Ye, everyone gradually guessed Shen Ye's identity.
The imperial prince actually came to Youzhou!
And he has been playing the role of a hundred sons hidden among everyone! Everyone in the hall was in shock.
Liu Wanxiu and the others had already known about the prince's coming to Youzhou before, but they didn't expect that Shen Ye was the current imperial prince.
Liu Wanxiu muttered: "It turns out that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is him. ”
Liu Qingyao's eyes were bright, looking at Shen Ye who was firm-eyed on the stage, looking at his extraordinary appearance, thinking about what the two of them had experienced before, and said secretly: "It turns out that your name is Duguyun." ”
"Shen Ye is actually the crown prince?! Oh my God! ”
If you want to say who is the most excited on the field, it should be Bai Zihuan.
At this moment, Bai Zihuan's face was flushed, and he couldn't wait to call his father who was drunk on the side immediately, share the news, and befriended the future emperor for the first time! And he also helped the prince a lot, and Bai Zihuan couldn't stop smiling.
Some people are excited, others are at rock bottom.
Bai Fengzhan looked at Shen Ye with a pale face, he was cold, he couldn't have imagined that Shen Ye would be the crown prince, how could he never have imagined that the imperial prince would appear here, and he couldn't have imagined that the imperial prince was still mixed in the hundred families? He was extremely remorseful in his heart, he was finished! The Bai family's trip offended the prince a lot, even if the prince didn't care about this matter, the head of the family would deprive himself of his power in order to make amends, and the hard work he had worked hard for most of his life would be ruined.
Bai Fengzhan sighed in despair, is this fate? He was about to step forward to ask for guilt, when he suddenly saw Yang Qiang, the head of the Yang family beside him, looking at Shen Ye above with a look of surprise and uncertainty.
Bai Fengzhan's heart moved, knowing that something seemed to be wrong, he asked in a low voice, "Can Brother Xian detect something wrong?" ”
When Yang Qian saw Bai Fengzhan asking, he expressed the doubts in his heart: "The prince has arrived in Youzhou, why haven't I received any news at all?" Besides, why is Yang Shi not here? ”
Yang Shi is Yang Qiang's nephew, in charge of the three guards of the East Palace, and the three guards of the East Palace have the responsibility of protecting the safety of the prince, and they have never left the prince's side, but without Yang Shi present at this moment, Yang Zong began to doubt the authenticity of Shen Ye's identity in his heart.
Bai Fengzhan also reacted at this time, yes, the Bai family has so many officials in the court, why haven't he received any news, and the saint is a son, he actually dares to release the prince to Youzhou?
Fang Sheng opposite them also had the same idea as them, and Fang Sheng was even more decisive, he directly vetoed Shen Ye's status as the prince in his heart, the current court is headed by Fang Xiang, the Fang family's eyes and ears in the court are everywhere, how could Fang Xiang not know about such a big thing as the prince's trip?
At this time, some young people whispered from the crowd: "Why did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince come here?" ”
"Could it be that I went to Fuzhou to visit the old lady and happened to pass by Youzhou?"
"I don't know if it's to visit the old lady, but I'm sure the prince must have come to Youzhou for the Wenhui."
"Will the prince's message join in the fun?"
"You are stupid, I think the prince wants to rob us of people?"
"I think you're stupid! What is the identity of the prince, how can he drop the price and rob us of people? ”
"Well, that's right."
These words reached the ears of the parents of various families, not to mention whether Fang Sheng, Yang Qiang, and the head of the Chang family recognized Shen Ye as the prince, but when everyone thought of the purpose of the prince's trip to Youzhou, the faces of these people became ugly.
And Fang Sheng seemed to have thought of something, he said to Shen Ye with a serious face: "Forgive the old man for being disrespectful, if the prince is really His Royal Highness the Prince, then please show the seal of the East Palace or other things that prove the identity of the prince." ”
Meng Feng stood up and said in a slightly cold voice: "Elder Fang is questioning the identity of His Royal Highness the Prince? ”
The head of the Chang family stood up, he first bowed to Shen Ye, and then said: "I hope Your Highness understands, it's not that I don't believe Your Highness, I don't believe this Meng Feng, if Mengzhou Mansion finds someone to lie about the prince, I don't know how to follow and bow down, once it's a real or fake prince, then won't we be a laughing stock by the world?" ”
"Not bad!"
Yang Qian also stood up, he arched his hand at Shen Ye and said: "Yang Shi of my Yang family is now an official worship of Zhonglang General, and he is the commander of the prince's personal guard, I don't know if the prince can summon Yang Shi to see him, if Yang Shi comes out, I, Yang Qiang, can testify for His Highness!" ”
Meng Feng frowned on the stage, he put his hand in his sleeve and touched something in his sleeve, and sure enough, as Shen Song expected, these people from these families were suspicious of the identity of the prince. He glanced at Shen Ye, who was sitting on the chair next to him, and saw that Shen Ye's expression seemed to be more relaxed, and he couldn't help but secretly praise the prince's calmness.
Shen Ye didn't answer a few people's questions, but took the lead in asking Liu Wanxiu: "Head of the Liu family, do you think I am the prince?" ”
Liu Wanxiu smiled bitterly in his heart, His Royal Highness Duguyun really held a grudge, he just didn't take action to protect Bai Zihuan at that time, he was the first to ask questions and pushed himself in front of everyone, he and Song Cheng knew the cause of Yu Yao's death, so he believed in his heart that Shen Ye was Duguyun, he was just shocked Why did His Royal Highness the Prince walk with Jiuqu's people, could there be another inside story about this matter?
Liu Wanxiu looked back at the children of the Liu family and said, "Follow me to see His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”
"Everyone in the Liu family pays a visit to His Royal Highness the Prince!"
"Everyone in the Song family pays a visit to His Royal Highness the Prince!"
When the Liu family knelt down, Song Cheng also took the Song family to kneel.
Seeing this, Bai Zihuan reacted quickly and shouted: "The two of the hundred families knock on His Royal Highness the Prince!" Then he pulled Bai Youyou and knelt down.
Chang Luochen looked at Bai Zihuan and the people from the Song Liu family who were kneeling down opposite, and he also wanted to kneel, but he didn't move when he saw his father's ugly face.
The other families were not like the Song and Liu families who knew the news of the prince in advance, and they still couldn't believe that the prince dared to leave the imperial capital.
The head of the Chang family frowned and looked at Liu Wanxiu and Song Cheng opposite, could it be that the people of the two of them in the court had found out the news? But the Fang family didn't kneel, which means that there must be a problem! The head of the Chang family didn't believe that the prince could hide it from Fang Xiang. He gritted his teeth and chose to side with the Fang family.
Shen Ye looked at Bai Fengzhan, who was pale, with a hint of chill in his eyes: "The Bai family doesn't believe my identity?" ”
Bai Fengzhan's body trembled, he thought about it urgently, he had offended the prince, it was impossible for him not to be punished by the family, and the identity of this person was indeed doubtful, he was ruthless, repeated Fang Xiang's words, bowed his head and said, "Please show the prince the seal of the East Palace." ”
He figured it out, even if Shen Ye was really His Royal Highness the Prince, after he ascended the throne, with the influence of the Bai family, the crown prince would not be able to embarrass the entire Bai family, and at most he would punish himself.
Shen Ye heard Bai Fengzhan's answer, he didn't look at him again, but looked at Yang Qiang, he stood up, and in the surprised eyes of everyone, Shen Ye bowed down to Yang Qiang, the head of the Yang family.
Yang Qian was taken aback, and before he confirmed the identity of the prince, he didn't want to make too disrespectful moves, Yang Qian hurriedly got out of the way and asked, "If the prince is the prince, why do you want to be so polite to me?" ”
Shen Ye said in a deep voice: "This worship is not to worship you, the master of the family, but to worship the Yang family who cultivated the Yang family, this is what I owe to the Yang family." ”
When Yang Qian heard the meaning of the words, a trace of uneasiness arose in his heart, and he asked urgently: "What happened to Shi'er?" ”
Shen Ye said bitterly: "Yang Shi is dead now in order to protect me!" ”
Yang Qian suddenly heard the bad news, his body shook, and the people of the Yang family around him even supported him, although Yang Shi was not Yang Qiang's own son, but Yang Qian saw the big one since he was a child, and regarded it as his own. And Yang Shi is also the most outstanding child of the Yang family's own generation, and now he worships Zhonglang General as an official, and after the prince ascends the throne, the future is limitless, and it is the future of the entire Yang family.
Bai Fengzhan looked at Yang Qian and reminded: "Brother Xian, don't listen to his nonsense, who dares to kill the prince's personal guards?" This is a great crime of plotting against the Nine Clans! I think it's clear that this person left behind the blockbuster news and wanted to disrupt your thoughts and confirm his identity as a prince! ”
Yang Qian eased his mind: "Yes! Shi'er is the leader of the three guards of the East Palace, there are thousands of people in the three guards of the East Palace, how could he be killed! He took a breath, looked at Bai Fengzhan and said, "Thank you, Brother Bai, I almost fell for this person's plan." ”
Yang Qian glared at Shen Ye angrily and said, "I respect my son, but my son is bluffing me with the life and death of my Yang family!" ”
Shen Ye didn't say anything when he saw that Yang Qian didn't believe it, he finally looked at Old Man Fang Sheng: "Does Old Fang believe in Fang Xiang's ability like that?" ”
Fang Sheng sneered in his heart, if this person was really the prince, why bother to speak so much, he had already taken out the prince's seal, and he said in a deep voice: "The old man only believes in his own eyes. ”
Shen Ye pointed to Meng Feng next to him, and asked Fang Sheng: "Do you know that if I pretend to be the prince, I and Mengzhou Mansion will both be beheaded, if you say that I deliberately took risks to kill the Bai family guards, then let me ask you, why did Meng Feng, as the capital of a state, risk being killed?" ”
Fang Sheng stroked his long beard and smiled confidently, and said slowly: "It's very simple, Meng Feng is the emperor's person, I think he was instructed by the emperor, and selected a person to pretend to be the prince, suppress the families at the literary meeting, and rob the family's resources, if your plan succeeds, Meng Feng will make up for it, and the emperor and the real prince can also keep him." ”
Shen Ye was stunned for some reason, and then he looked at everyone and said, "I don't have the prince's seal, and I can't find anything on me that can prove my identity now, you can believe it, or don't believe it." ”
When Chang Luochen heard this, he was dumbfounded and said, "What does this mean? ”
Bai Zihuan looked at Bai Fengzhan in the distance and said: "It means that if your Bai family doesn't believe in his identity, you will pay for his family's guards, and if you believe it, you will go over to ask for guilt." ”
Chang Luochen said: "This is also okay? ”
Bai Zihuan said: "How do I know what he thinks?" He's a prince! ”
When Meng Feng heard Shen Ye's words, he also looked at him with a strange expression, he didn't give Bai Fengzhan a chance to make a decision, Meng Feng took out the things in his sleeve, stepped forward, and lifted the things: "The tokens of the Royal Tianbao Jade and the Three Guards of the East Palace are here, everyone knocks on His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”
Everyone was shocked, Fang Sheng saw it clearly at the forefront, and when he saw the liquid flowing in the token and the treasure jade, his heart was shocked: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has really come to Youzhou!" At this time, he just didn't want to believe it in his heart, and he had to believe it, and the token was just that, this treasure jade couldn't be faked.
Shen Ye looked deeply at the things in his hand behind Meng Feng, and secretly said in his heart: "These two things are really in Uncle Shen Song's!" ”
After Shen Ye recovered his memory, he immediately thought of these two things, he suspected that these two things were on Shen Song, and today he wanted to disclose his identity, with the friendship between Uncle Shen Song and Mengzhou Mansion, Uncle Shen Song must know that he would definitely hand over the things to Meng Feng, so Shen Ye said the words before, at this time Shen Ye's eyes were fixed on the jade pendant, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
And Meng Feng also determined one thing in his heart at this time: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knows that Shen Song is here with me. ”
Meng Feng informed Shen Song about the prince yesterday, but what he didn't expect was that Shen Song took out the token of the three guards of the East Palace that should have belonged to the prince and the Tianbao jade that he wore closely, Shen Song didn't explain too much to him, but just asked him to return this thing to the prince.
Meng Feng watched as the rest of the people in the hall knelt down, and he pondered, "What happened between Shen Song and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" ”
Shen Ye took the things in Meng Feng's hand, received them in his arms, and then said softly to the audience: "Everyone, please get up!" ”
Everyone slowly got up, and only two people were still on their knees.
One is Bai Fengzhan and the other is Yang Qiang.
The expressions of the two were very different at the moment, Bai Fengzhan's face was like ashes, and his white head was tightly attached to the ground.
And Yang Qian is in tears at this time, this son is really His Royal Highness the Prince! Wouldn't Yang Shi really die? Yang Qian pushed away the person beside him, fell to the ground, and said to Shen Ye: "Please tell Your Highness how Shi'er died?!" ”
