My Princess Has Been Reborn

Chapter 97: In one sentence

The weather at the end of June was still extremely hot and unpredictable, but as King Wu left Beijing, there was a calmness inside and outside the court.

When King Wu left, only the Prince and King Wei were left in the court. The prince is stable by nature, and his position is not easily shaken, so he always sits firmly on the Diaoyutai. On the contrary, Wang Wei, without the brothers next to him, was struggling, and took the opportunity to grab a lot of power.

Neither Qi Yang nor Lu Qipei intervened in the court, as the crown prince was still in his control. It's just that in private, many spies have recently been added to both the Wu Palace and the Wei Palace. Especially for the staff in the two residences, as well as some other figures who are close to the king, and even can influence the king's decision-making, they have been carefully investigated.

It's a pity that nothing has been found. Everyone's background is innocent. Not to mention that Lu Qipei and Qi Yang made private investigations. They were tied into the Dali Temple, and probably nothing else could be found.

"Is it really suspicious of me?" Qi Yang took the survey results of the staff of Prince Wu's mansion, somewhat self-doubt.

Lu Qipei took more surveys of the people in the Wei Palace than she did, but after reading it, she didn't say a word--her temperament was more calm than Qi Yang, and she was not in a hurry, just waiting to see the results in the future.

The result was faster than Lu Qipei expected. After only more than a month, there was news from Mingzhou saying that King Wu was missing.

When Qi Yang entered the palace, the emperor was standing in the palace hall and furious at the ministers: "King Wu is going to the disaster relief, and he is surrounded by armored guards. I didn't want him to go to the danger in person, so how could he get to the front? Go, and was washed away by the flood?!" After saying this, he took two steps, then turned his head back and slapped the imperial case: "Are the officials and the soldiers dead?!"

The few people in the palace of the Xuan Dynasty are all central ministers, and no one has gone to Mingzhou. How can you manage the matter of King Wu in distress? But the emperor is angry, what can they do? Naturally, he could only sue his head down, hoping that the emperor could calm down his anger.

Qi Yang could hear the roar of the emperor inside when he stood outside the Xuanshi Hall. The little servant at the door saw her coming, it was like a savior. Before Qi Yang could speak, he hurried into the hall and whispered a few words with Zhang Jian who was guarding the imperial front.

Zhang Jian heard that Qi Yang asked to see him, but he didn't know whether he should be happy or worried, and finally informed the emperor.

When the emperor heard Qi Yang coming, his expression of anger eased a little. He paced the place for two steps and exhaled again. Then he waved his sleeves and waved at Zhang Jian, "Let her come in."

Even though the courtiers were still there, Qi Yang walked in and asked for An and asked straightforwardly: "I heard that Brother Wu was in danger in Mingzhou. I wonder what's going on?"

The princess should not have been involved in political affairs, but Wang Wu was her elder brother, and she was also asking about the safety of Wang Wu. Of course the courtiers could not say anything. It’s just that the topic was not well chosen. The emperor was furious about the thunder just now. Qi Yang turned his head and brought up the matter again... Several ministers shrank their heads, and wanted to step back a few steps, thinking that their ears might have to suffer again. Up.

However, the emperor's tolerance towards Qi Yang exceeded the imagination of others.

I saw the emperor who was so angry that he was blowing his beard and staring. At this moment, he just tightened his brows and said in a deep voice: "It is a good thing for the emperor to care about your brother. It's just that the Mingzhou officials are not doing things well. Your brother Wang is missing now. I don't know what happened to him."

Qi Yang asked, "What the **** is going on, I don't know what happened, so I hope my father will tell me."

When he mentioned this, the emperor was so angry that he didn't want to say more, and waved his hand to signal Zhang Jian to repeat the matter. When Zhang Jian got the order, he stepped forward and told Qi Yang the whole story of Wang Wu's distress.

It turned out that King Wu left Beijing a month ago, and according to the memo that he submitted before, he did a good job. Even because it was the first time to do this kind of errand, he was too keen on it, and he didn't stretch out his hand, which greatly benefited the people affected by this disaster. He did a good job, and of course he built a reputation, and the king Wu, who was loved by the people, unknowingly swelled.

The rain in Mingzhou stopped a few days ago, and the water has dropped. I don’t know who told Wang Wu to take the lead and ask him to take a look at the disaster-stricken area. At that time, King Wu was already a little airy, and he agreed without thinking.

Choosing a sunny weather, King Wu personally went to the disaster-stricken area and led some people to bring them back to their homeland.

Everything is fine, but who knows that there is a flood discharge in the mountains somehow. Obviously it was fine and fine weather, and the sudden flood of water not only swept away the "leader" King Wu, even the people who returned to their homeland were not spared!

When this happened, Mingzhou shook, and the local governor sent many people along the way to rescue people. It is a pity that King Wu was not found after searching for a few days, no one was born or dead, and it was impossible to fill up with such a big news. In the end, he had to write a letter to ask for the crime.

After the emperor saw it, he was so angry that he almost didn't turn off the imperial case, but he was angry again that Wang Wu was so overjoyed that he had acted carelessly. The one who was washed away by the flood and disappeared was also his son. King Qi and King Chu were not willing to be cruel, not to mention King Wu, so he not only angered the officials in Mingzhou, but even the courtiers who discussed the disaster relief were also suffering.

Qi Yang was silent for a moment after listening to Zhang Jian’s remarks, and still said: "Brother Wu Wang acted slightly carelessly. But he may be induced by the disaster, and the flood is too weird. Someone did it deliberately."

In the past few months, incidents have continued, and even Qi Yang and Lu Qipei have smelled unusual. How could the emperor who has been in the center of power for decades not aware of it? Especially after King Wu's accident this time, the emperor felt an urgent threat, and couldn't figure it out for a while. This was the real reason for his anger.

However, the emperor naturally does not need to be reminded by others about what he should do: "I have already sent people to investigate. And now that King Wu's life or death is uncertain, he needs to send more people to search."

Qi Yang bowed his head and said yes, and several ministers on the side were secretly relieved seeing the emperor calm down.

The news of King Wu's accident quickly spread throughout the capital. King Wei was first happy when he heard it, but then became frightened when he calmed down.

Today, these princes are only a few of the princes, who have been abandoned in a short time, and those who have disappeared. Now he and the prince are the only ones who can stand up. Wei Wang knew about his own family affairs. He had never attacked a few brothers, nor had he the ability to break these brothers. At the same time, he doesn't believe that there is such a coincidence in the world, so who would make it?

The answer seems to be self-evident. Especially when the King of Chu was pulled off the horse by Lu Qipei, that was plainly known to everyone. This made Wei Wang couldn't help being a little worried. After Wu Wang's accident, what was waiting for him?

Then he found the staff in the mansion, and after discussing it for a while, he felt even more desperate-the prince was calm and decent, the courtesy corporal, the reputation and image management was too good. Even if Lu Qipei broke the King of Chu at the beginning, it was the King of Chu asking for hardship, and no one could say anything. Others would not believe that the prince rushed to the king of Qi and King Wu, so as the only remaining gainer, King Wei obviously needs to take the scapegoat!

After being informed of the news by his staff, Wang Wei was so wronged that he almost cried. But it was useless for him to cry, no one would believe it, and he not only had to carry a black pan, but also prevent the prince from attacking him, it couldn't be worse.

Wei Wangshu wanted to cry without tears in the Wei Palace, but Qi Yang and Lu Qipei had already discussed countermeasures with the Prince in the East Palace.

Lu Qipei sat on his side, listening to Qi Yang and the prince's remonstrance: "Brother Emperor, it may be unusual for the kings to have accidents one after another. At the moment, Brother Wu is probably too bad, and the only remaining Brother Wei Wang should take more care. "

Wang Wei is still there, and he will naturally take care of all the illegitimate things. Given the good reputation of the prince, no one will point the finger at him first. But if King Wei is no longer there, then the prince will not allow brothers, and his reputation for harming siblings will only be spread by those with a heart. At that time, the officials will be suspicious, the father and son will be distracted, and the prince’s situation will be hundreds of times more difficult than it is now, and the court will be unstable.

All three of them could understand, and the prince nodded and accepted the matter. He will think more about the affairs of the court in the future, and privately plan to send some people to guard Wei Wang, so that he will not be blackmailed. Even the Kings of Chu and Qi should send some people to watch.

Of course, this matter will not be hidden from the emperor, but to hide it from him is to ask questions for himself.

In this matter, the prince and Qi Yang easily reached an agreement. Only then did Lu Qipei speak: "Except for Wang Wei and the other princes, your Highness himself should also be careful."

Hearing this, the prince raised his eyebrows and asked, "The prince thinks the lonely will be targeted next?"

Lu Qipei's expression remained unchanged and looked at the prince: "Doesn’t your Highness think? Let’s not mention the matter of the King of Chu. Let’s just assume that it’s just an accident. But neither King Qi nor King Wu took the shot, so the person who shot it will be Who is it? Wei Wang?"

The prince shook his head. Of course he had doubts about Wei Wang, but neither the results of the investigation nor his own judgment felt that the successive rounds would be set by the Wei Wang. To put it bluntly, if he really has this, it is impossible for him to be unknown for many years. And even if he set up a bureau, he shouldn't be so anxious to arrange the time so close.

Speaking of it, looking at it this way, the suspicion of the prince's shot is greater. Why would he be so weak now that he lacks more time than his healthy brothers? As for motives, he is coveted by his brothers while he is in the reserve position. He needs other motives?

I'm afraid that in private, someone has already thought so.

Of course, Lu Qipei and Qi Yang did not doubt the prince, so when they saw the prince shook their heads, Lu Qipei said: "Since your Royal Highness thinks it is not King Wei, why did the person behind the scenes do this? Or in other words, since he can Do you want to surrender to other princes, why does your Highness feel that you are a special one? There will always be people who want to surrender to your highness?"

Of course, these princes had also thought about it. He condensed his expression and looked at Lu Qipei: "Delete all the kings and princes one by one, leaving them alone in an unrighteous place, leaving the Liang country with no successor. I am afraid it is me. Big Liang Jiangshan right?!"

He really dared to guess, the words were surprisingly keen. But what shocked the two of them even more was the Prince's next sentence. With bright eyes, he said in an almost assured tone: "It's Xie Yuan, isn't it?"
