The Jinluan Hall, which was as noisy as a vegetable market, fell silent for a moment, so quiet that one could even hear a needle drop on the ground.
The emperor had dozed off a bit¡ªit was so annoying to yell and spit at each other. He was sleepy when he got up early, and he couldn't hold on after hearing these nonsense, so he was stunned for a while before he started arguing again. The minister knew from his mouth that Master Zhu had found witnesses.
He squinted his eyes: "Master Zhu has found a witness? Pass¡ª¡ª"
When the prince came back to his senses, his heart sank, and he almost couldn't support himself and fell to his knees on the ground.
Found witnesses?
Must have lied to him right?
Thin beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, and he subconsciously looked at Prime Minister Wang.
Xu Shangshu found the witness and has not moved, just for fishing, so when Mr. Zhu was in trouble today, he had been paying close attention to the prince's movements and demeanor. Seeing the sweat on the prince's forehead, he subconsciously looked at Prime Minister Wang in extreme panic. , I know that Prime Minister Wang is indeed a member of the prince's faction.
He sneered in his heart, Prime Minister Wang really hid it deep enough, but what's the use? Wasn't he easily tempted out?
Prime Minister Wang came out and said with a smile: "Since we have found the witness, everything will be easy." After speaking, his eyes swept across the prince's face as if unconsciously.
The prince suddenly remembered that he had discussed with his aides how to deal with this matter before, and he had also communicated with Prime Minister Wang. Prime Minister Wang said that he had made his own arrangements, and the fear in his heart was a little less.
Xu Shangshu slowly narrowed his old eyes, glanced thoughtfully at Prime Minister Wang who seemed to be fine, his heart sank suddenly, and he came out and said, "Your Majesty¡ª"
As soon as the words fell, there was an exclamation from outside: "There is an assassin¡ª¡ª"
Xu Shangshu's heart sank again, and he immediately looked at Prime Minister Wang where the old god was.
Prime Minister Wang showed surprise on his face.
Xu Shangshu cursed the old man in his heart, and quickly looked at the emperor: "Your Majesty, the assassin appeared at the critical moment of bringing witnesses. This matter is very like jumping over the wall in a hurry!"
Prime Minister Wang took a step forward: "Xu Shangshu's words are true, but besides Goujitiaoqiang, there is another possibility, which is to forge this Goujitiaoqiang specially."
Xu Shangshu's eyes gradually turned cold, and he glanced at Prime Minister Wang.
However, Prime Minister Wang didn't seem to notice his gaze, and said to the emperor worriedly: "Your Majesty, witnesses are very important, please send more people to protect the witnesses."
The emperor quickly sent someone to check.
Soon, the little leader of the Royal Forest Army who was on duty today came in with a pale face and knelt down and begged for mercy.
The witness was dead, and his head was beheaded with a knife by a disciple surnamed Zhang in the Imperial Forest Army.
After the kid surnamed Zhang killed someone, he immediately committed suicide with a horizontal knife. He cut his own neck directly, obviously wanting to die!
The emperor was furious: "Investigate, thoroughly investigate!"
It is not so important whether witnesses or witnesses are not present. The important thing is that there are dead men in the Imperial Forest Army who were bribed and dared to kill people in the palace-if they can kill people today, can they kill him tomorrow?
It's the other way around!
Both Prime Minister Wang and Xu Shangshu proposed to let Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishments conduct a thorough investigation.
The emperor nodded in agreement, and added another factory guard. He felt that only the factory guard was reliable. Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment had people from Prime Minister Wang and Xu Shangshu, so he couldn't trust them.
After ordering someone to find out the truth, Lord Zhu once again turned his attention back to the prince, accusing the prince of jumping over the wall in a hurry to deliberately kill the murder witness to avoid being accused by the witness.
Prime Minister Wang didn't make a sound. In this case, he shouldn't have made a sound.
The prince's people heard what Prime Minister Wang said just now, and immediately refuted sharply, thinking that Mr. Zhu could not find witnesses at all, so they directed and acted out the murder of witnesses, in an attempt to pour dirty water on the prince.
The two factions quarreled again.
The prince's faction insisted that there was no witness, and the so-called witness was directed and acted by Master Zhu.
Master Zhu's faction firmly insisted that the witness's testimony was true, and it was the prince who sent the dog to jump over the wall in a hurry and killed people to silence it.
The prince sent a sneer: "We don't even know that you have witnesses, let alone when you will find the witnesses. How to arrange for people to jump over the wall to kill people? Master Zhu, please be reasonable even if you want to pour dirty water on His Royal Highness."
Xu Shangshu's faction also sneered: "It's up to you to ask how much power the prince has in the palace. As long as you have enough power, no matter what day someone will testify, His Royal Highness will always make arrangements so that people will come and go as witnesses."
If you can't bring down the prince, you have to make the emperor jealous of the prince!
These words were really embarrassing, the prince knelt down immediately, pointing to the heavens to explain himself.?It is up to you to decide, not to be asked by General Xiao. "
Prime Minister Wang also nodded and agreed: "General Xiao is in command of the Northern Army. He has been praised a lot in the north. It is true that he does not know the importance."
The emperor heard similar words for several days in a row, and they entered his heart unconsciously.
Xiao Yao is a minister, but he refuses to listen to him, and even asks him to kill his son. This is indeed not the behavior of a peaceful minister.
He also remembered that someone said in the past that people in the north only knew General Xiao, but not the emperor, so he couldn't help feeling even more worried.
He is the emperor of the Daxing Dynasty and the master of the world. Even if Xiao Yao has outstanding military talent, he is only a courtier of the emperor. How can he be so arrogant and not listen to him, but demand something from him instead?
Prime Minister Wang and Xu Shangshu felt that the heat was almost ready, and they focused on worrying that Xiao Yao would support himself after breaking through the capital of Haiyuan Kingdom. It was Prime Minister Wang who spoke first:
"It is said that General Xiao won consecutive battles, so that many people went to join the army. Now the Northern Army's army has a weight of 120,000. This can also be proved by the amount of food and supplies allocated every month. If General Xiao really supports his troops , I'm afraid the consequences will be disastrous."
Xu Shangshu echoed: "It's nothing to kill the prince and let the emperor's grandson ascend the throne as the next emperor, but once it is connected with the fact that General Xiao commanded an army of 120,000, one can't help but wonder whether the general's mansion will come up with a regent. !"
The emperor himself had thought this way before, and now he heard what Xu Shangshu said, and he became even more skeptical.
Xiao Yao has 120,000 troops, and they are all elite troops. If the general's mansion is to be the regent, I am afraid that no one in the court will be able to rule over the general's mansion. At that time, it is uncertain whether the surname of Tang will be in the world.
Prime Minister Wang and Xu Shangshu's fight is just to constrain him, but this country still belongs to the Tang family, and he is only constrained. There are still some regulations that should be established by the emperor, but it can be replaced by the general's mansion, I'm afraid it may not be possible .
In the next two days, countless people deepened the impression in the emperor's ears that the general's mansion would be the regent.
At this time, news came from the north that Xiao Yao had broken through Baiyang City. After resting in Baiyang City, he would attack the capital of Haiyuan State and wipe out Haiyuan State in one fell swoop.
If the emperor was originally happy because Xiao Yao was able to fight, then at this moment, apart from being happy, he was also a little bit shocked.
Xiao Yao used soldiers like a god. If the crown prince died and the grandson of the emperor succeeded to the throne, with Xiao Yao's control over the northern army, it would be appropriate for the general's mansion to be the regent. With military power, who wouldn't want to pursue the supremacy? Power?
The emperor felt that the only thing that made him feel at ease was that Xiao Yao was a woman, and he couldn't be like countless former emperors who were founding emperors.
When Prime Minister Wang and Xu Shangshu learned that Xiao Yao had captured Baiyang City, they became anxious.
Only the capital of Haiyuan Country is left. If you don¡¯t pick the delicious peaches of Haiyuan Country, you will have no chance to pick them. You must seize the opportunity.
The two couldn't wait to get up, and hurriedly hinted to the emperor that if they want to act, it's now. If it continues, Xiao Yao will destroy Haiyuan Country, and his prestige will go further. I'm afraid no one will be able to shake her.
The emperor finally made up his mind to call Prime Minister Wang and Prime Minister Xu to discuss important matters¡ªthis kind of thing cannot be done by his confidantes, because it is easy to anger Xiao Yao, so he can only let Prime Minister Wang and Prime Minister Wang who have always been at odds with Xiao Yao do it.
Xiao Yao received a secret letter from the emperor, saying that according to what she said, the prince would be killed.
But in view of the fact that the emperor's grandson will be in power in the future, if the prince is killed at this time, it will inevitably be believed that the prince has indeed killed General Xiaocheng's brothers, father and son, and killed 60,000 soldiers, as the rumors said. I was ashamed, so I decided to find a reason for the prince to die suddenly after the news passed.
At the end of this secret letter, the emperor wrote in a very cordial and earnest tone that since he ascended the throne, he has been constrained by powerful officials, and his political ambitions and ideas have been difficult to display. , his status has improved, and he is no longer constrained by powerful officials as in the past, because of this, he is grateful to Xiao Yao from the bottom of his heart, and hopes that Xiao Yao will not let him down.
Xiao Yao hadn't received the summons from Beijing yet, so she didn't know whether the emperor's words were true or not, but she knew that the emperor had summoned Prime Minister Wang and Xu Shangshu many times before sending out this secret letter, so she deduced that the emperor This letter is very watery.
