    Chapter 167

    At this time, Prince Gong was not in the capital. The prince had gained favor and was at the height of his popularity. In contrast, Prince Gong's party had a gloomy and gloomy atmosphere, as if their master would soon leave the country.

    And Dou Mingxuan and Xie Ling had a small dispute. Dou Mingxuan had some leverage on the prince, and he thought it was time to go out and suppress the prince's arrogance, lest Emperor Xuanhe really threw Prince Gong to his territory.

    But Xie Ling felt that the time had not come yet. To hit a snake, you have to hit it seven inches. It must be hit with one blow, leaving no room for the prince to stand up.

    The two had a fight and broke up unhappy. The next day, Xie Ling and Dou Mingxuan went to Tingyu Teahouse again and began to discuss countermeasures, because Emperor Xuanhe was ill again.

    "The Taiyuan Hospital made outpatient visits last night and worked hard all night." Dou Mingxuan frowned and said, "It is said that he coughed up blood."

    There was no expression on Xie Ling's face, she just said, "When will the prince come back?"

    Dou Mingxuan sighed and said, "It will take another half a month."

    Xie Ling tapped the edge of the table lightly, with a deep look in her eyes, and said, "Then just wait."

    Dou Mingxuan couldn't help but sigh: "I'm afraid I don't have time to wait."

    Xie Ling raised her eyes to look at him, her eyes were clear, but she looked at him without hesitation and said, "Teacher, just don't worry, we have plenty of time."

    There was a firm and convincing force in his voice, and Dou Mingxuan compromised. He thought to himself, half a month is all, the situation can't be worse than this.

    Half a month passed by, and the prince was involved again. This time, he was involved in forming a clique for personal gain and befriending the ministers privately. For this reason, the prince has been involved many times. The censor likes to hear about things.  They were either taking part in this or that, as if if they didn't take one or two books a day, their time would be in vain.

    The prince is so favored now that he doesn't need to care about these officials at all. What he has to do now is to stay calm and do a few more good errands to impress Emperor Xuanhe and squeeze Prince Gong back to the vassal territory as soon as possible.  .

    After he read the memorials, he pushed them aside casually. Those piles were all less important memorials and could be dealt with in a few days.

    It didn't matter that this was a reprieve. Seeing that Emperor Xuanhe didn't move, the censor who attended him wrote three more memorials in a row, and his words became more and more fierce and sharp. The prince saw that the whole article was full of curses on himself, and he couldn't help but feel very irritated.  The three memorials were suppressed again.

    On the third day, the censor made no move. When the court meeting was almost over, Emperor Xuanhe looked at the officials below and said casually: "Do you have anything else to report?"

    A man came out of the queue, knelt on the ground, and said, "I have my original intention to report."

    When he saw that person, the prince's eyelids suddenly jumped. For some reason, he suddenly had a bad feeling. That person was none other than the censor who had suppressed four memorials in a row.

    Seeing that it was the censor who was about to present a memorial, not only the prince, but also Emperor Xuanhe and the ministers' eyelids twitched. Only Xie Ling lowered his eyes. After a moment, Emperor Xuanhe's slightly aged voice came.  : "Accurate performance."

    The censor said loudly: "The things I want to report are all in this memorial. Please take a look at it."

    Immediately, a eunuch came over, picked up the memorial, and respectfully presented it to Emperor Xuanhe. Almost everyone's eyes were fixed on the memorial, observing Emperor Xuanhe's expression.

    So they also saw it clearly. Emperor Xuanhe's eyes suddenly opened, and the expression on his face flashed through shock, disbelief, and anger, and finally turned into calm, if you ignore the fingers that tightly squeezed the memorial.

    "Prince," Emperor Xuanhe's voice was surprisingly soft, "You also come and read this memorial, it is written specifically for you."

    Hearing this, the prince's eyelids suddenly jumped wildly. He felt that his throat was a little dry, and his mind began to think rapidly about whether there was anything important in the four memorials he had seen a few days ago that he had overlooked.

    No, absolutely not. Those were all scoldings about him, every word was like a needle, saying that he secretly befriended courtiers and intended to form a party. They were all empty talk. He had seen this kind of memorial many times. He had already known it after being involved in politics for so many years.  , these censors only have one mouth, and they yell nonsense when they have time or no time. In fact, not many of them can really produce evidence.

    But the more this happened, the weirder the expression of Emperor Xuanhe just now became. The prince was in a state of confusion, and he took the memorial with great anxiety, and what he saw was: "in the spring and February of the 28th year of Xuanhe,  Cenzhou increased the tea tax, and received a total of 807,000 taels of tax money that year In the summer and May of the 29th year of Xuanhe, the prince held a banquet with Peng Zijian, the minister of the ministry of industry, Yu Yibo, the right minister of the household ministry, and Zhai Yiliang, the governor of Qian.  ¡­?When you compare them, you can't help but feel pity for them.

    Dou Mingxuan watched this scene and couldn't help but look at Xie Ling again. He was sitting upright and talking in a low voice to the official next to him. He noticed the gaze here and raised his eyes keenly. At that moment, his eyes  Dou Mingxuan couldn't help but think of Lone Wolf, sharp and calm.

    It¡¯s shocking.

    But soon, Xie Ling returned to his usual gentleness. He smiled politely at Dou Mingxuan, and Dou Mingxuan also nodded slightly, feeling that he was not unconvinced as a student.

    All of this was planned by Xie Ling, so that the prince could be proud for a while. The greater Emperor Xuanhe's expectations of him, the more obvious the gap would be. But at this moment tonight, this gap has been magnified to the extreme.  .

    The prince stared at Prince Gong and Emperor Xuanhe, and slowly drank all the wine in the glass. A trace of gloom flashed in his eyes, which quickly disappeared without a trace.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
