Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Rush of the First Battle

On the other side, after Chu Mo and Xue Xue sent Shui Ruhua back to the Tianren Pavilion, taking advantage of the evening, when the Tianren Pavilion was the most lively, Chu Mo asked Shui Ruhua to find two people.

Let them put on his clothes and those of the snowfall, and drive their chariots, and take the spies sent by the king's beard, and go around the city.

He followed the snowfall, changed his clothes, and swaggered away from the Heavenly Pavilion.

When he returned to the Prince's Mansion, Li Jin had already come back one step earlier.

As soon as he entered the door, Xue Xue yelled and fought and sweated, leaving Chu Mo and running to take a bath.

Chu Mo took the opportunity to call Li Jin to the lobby and asked him about it.

"How's it going?" asked Chu Mo.

Li Jin nodded slightly and replied: "As His Highness expected, the backer behind this king's beard is indeed the eldest prince." And judging by their movements, they are planning to make a move against His Highness. ”

In fact, when he found out that Wang Huzi had a big backer behind him, Chu Mo already had several suspects in his heart at that time.

In Kyoto City, in addition to the Emperor and Empress of Chu, the only people who can command the Kyoto Yamen are the boss, the fourth, and the right minister and An Guogong.

After knowing this, Chu Mo immediately understood that the other party deliberately printed the prince's poems together with Mo Chu's poems into a poetry collection, and sold and spread them in Kyoto.

This is certainly not just to earn those hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.

After all, the eldest prince is not short of this silver.

Thinking that at the beginning, he, a stupid prince, had hundreds of thousands of taels of pocket money every year, as well as the silver money that the major officials respected behind their backs, adding up to hundreds of thousands of taels every year.

He can have so much money even if he is a fool, and the eldest and fourth will only receive more benefits than him, and it cannot be less than him.

And the stupid prince used to be extravagant and squandered all this large amount of money. But it is impossible for the eldest and fourth to squander it like this, so the money in their house must be no less than a few million taels.

Therefore, Chu Mo guessed that Chu Sheng would definitely not be able to do so many things for the sake of hundreds of thousands of taels, and there must be another purpose in this.

So he decided to push the boat down the river and told Wang Huzi the big news.

As he expected, after learning that the four poems were all written by Mo Chu, Wang Huzi immediately went to see the eldest prince Chu Sheng.

After making sure that he had guessed correctly, Chu Mo continued to ask Li Jin, "Did you overhear it, how do they plan to deal with Gu?"

Li Jin thought for a while: "The eldest prince seems to have made a few ministers behind his back, and plans to report to His Majesty that His Royal Highness's poems are fraudulent and pretended to be done by other people. ”

"Really, the eldest and fourth are really doing everything. ”

Chu Mo smiled faintly and instructed Li Jin, "Okay." Father-in-law Li, from tomorrow, the lonely outside said that he couldn't afford to be sick. If someone is sent from the palace, he will say that he is lying on the sickbed and does not want to see guests, and he will be sent away. ”

"Yes!" Li Jin agreed, although he didn't know what Chu Mo meant, he would definitely not disobey Chu Mo's order!

"Boss, you have wasted so much energy, this time, I'm afraid that you will miscalculate again. ”

Chu Mo squinted his eyes and smiled, very playful.

......

In the blink of an eye, it was the morning of the next day.

Chu Sheng and Chu Yu came to the palace hall early, looking forward to Chu Mo's arrival.

However, until all the courtiers entered the palace hall, they didn't see Chu Mo come in.

Chu Sheng was thinking about going over to discuss with Chu Yu how to make trouble.

However, at this time, Hong Sifeng had already shouted, Chu Emperor Chu Yunxiu slowly sat on the dragon chair, and Chu Sheng had no choice but to hurriedly salute.

After the salute, Chu Sheng immediately glanced at Chu Yu again, roughly asking him why Chu Mo didn't come to the early court today.

Chu Yu shook his head slightly, signaling that he didn't know too much.

At this moment, a good scene carefully arranged by Chu Sheng was disrupted.

He originally thought that while Chu Mo was in the court, he would hint to the ministers of the court, in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, to report Chu Mo for cheating, so that he could not get off the stage on the spot.

But now, the protagonist has not come, how will this scene continue?

Just when he was eye-to-eye with Chu Yu, Emperor Chu, who was sitting on it, suddenly spoke: "Great Prince, do you have anything to say to me?"

Chu Sheng was suddenly named by Emperor Chu, and was directly stunned for a moment, before hurriedly replying: "Father, the son has nothing to do." ”

"I saw that you have been eye-to-eye with the four princes, and I thought that the two of you were discussing something important!" Emperor Chu said, looked at Chu Yu on the other side, and smiled slightly: "You really have nothing to do?"

"Father, son, son, son......"

Chu Yu was thinking about something, but he was suddenly named, and he didn't know how to answer.

When they were in a dilemma, Liu Shutong and Liu Yong suddenly stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the eldest prince and the fourth prince should be deceitful for the prince's poems, but the two princes dare not show it to Your Majesty in order to take care of the prince's face." ”

Emperor Chu's expression was cold, and he turned his head to look at Liu Shutong and asked, "Liu Qingjia, what did you just say? What the hell is going on with the prince's poems?"

Liu Shutong hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, this is exactly what Weichen wants to play." Weichen wants to report the crown prince Chu Mo, pretending to be someone else's poems, falsely claiming that he wrote the poems himself, deceiving His Majesty, deceiving the people of Chu State, and deceiving the world!"

Emperor Chu frowned suddenly, realizing that the matter was not simple, and hurriedly asked: "Liu Qingjia, you said that the prince pretended to be someone else's poem and falsely claimed to be his own poem, what evidence do you have?"

Liu Shutong seemed to have been prepared, and immediately took out the book of poems, and replied: "Back to Your Majesty, a while ago, there was a talented man in Kyoto City whose poems were not inferior to the prince, named Mo Chu, and there were a total of four poems recorded in this poetry collection. Two of them are poems by the prince, and the other two are poems by Na Mochu, please take a look at them. ”

Emperor Chu waved his hand at Hong Sifeng, Hong Sifeng hurriedly went down, took the book of poems, and presented it to Emperor Chu.

Emperor Chu hurriedly looked through it.

After reading it twice, Emperor Chu asked again: "Liu Qingjia, these four poems are all very well written, they can be called the best in the world, and they can definitely be remembered for centuries, what's wrong with this?"

His Majesty also saw that these four poems are quatrains for the ages. Let me ask, today, how many people can write such eternal quatrains? Our Chu State has always been weak in the literary world, and two poetry and literary geniuses have appeared all of a sudden, doesn't Your Majesty think this matter is very strange?" Liu Shutong said heavily.

Emperor Chu sneered and said, "Liu Qingjia, just because these four poems are unique in the world, it is too arbitrary to conclude that the prince is a poem written by someone else's hand, right? ”

"Your Majesty, it is not difficult to judge whether this matter is true or false. As long as the prince is allowed to come to this court to confront him, Weichen has his own way to verify whether the prince is the real reincarnation of the poet, or whether he is pretending to be someone else's hand and deceiving the world. ”

Seeing Liu Shutong swearing like this, Emperor Chu was also a little embarrassed.

Immediately afterwards, another minister followed suit, and the people had already discussed this matter, so that Emperor Chu could make a decision as soon as possible and maintain the royal majesty.

Under the pressure of the ministers, Emperor Chu could only wave his hand helplessly: "Gonggong Hong, immediately summon the prince into the palace and confront Liu Qing's family!"
