Chapter 1777 - Detained by the Palace Master
Another round of curses shocked Yongmen no more than Chi Zhongtian. He neither dared to raise his head nor speak back.
"Yongmen Zhen, I know you didn't do this, but I'm not arguing with you now. What I'm angry about is that as an old minister, you have also been my teacher and the prince's teacher.
, you actually found someone to come to Beijing without my permission, this is absolutely unforgivable!"
The meaning of the emperor's words is obvious.
An old minister, or an important minister, actually has such an idea.
This is too dangerous.
"Your Majesty, I am confused, please forgive me!"
"Yongmen Zhen, listen, no matter who sent these people, they are related to Yongmen Zidi after all. If I don't find out, I won't let them go. Don't go to court these days, just
Just rest at home, if that's not possible, I won't stop you from going out to enjoy the mountains and rivers, but there is one thing, if you dare to jump up and down, I will never let you go!"
"Yes, your Majesty, don't worry, I understand, I understand!"
"Please step back."
"Yes, Your Majesty, that General Chi..." Yongmen Zhen asked after hearing that he only let him go but not Chi Zhongtian.
"Chi Zhongtian, although what you said makes sense, I can't let you go until you find out everything," the emperor said.
"What, Your Majesty, do you mean to detain me in the palace?" Chi Zhongtian asked.
"Um."
"Your Majesty, this matter must have nothing to do with General Chi. It was the old minister who brought General Chi here. Otherwise, Your Majesty, please detain the old minister!" Yongmen Zhen said anxiously.
"Back off!" The emperor suddenly glared at Yongmen and shouted.
"Master Taifu, you'd better go back first." Long Yun saw that he was about to stiffen and quickly advised him.
"emperor."
"Back off!"
"I...I obey your order!"
Yongmen Zhen had no choice, he could not protect himself now, let alone plead for Chi Zhongtian.
Chi Zhongtian, on the other hand, didn't say a word, just waiting to see Yongmen Zhen's reaction.
In fact, he wished that Yongmen Zhen would leave immediately. After he left, he could speak out what he had to say, lest the emperor would not be able to get off the stage in front of a large crowd.
After Yongmen Zhen left, the emperor said to Chi Zhongtian: "I think you seemed to have something to say just now."
"Your Majesty, I just want to tell Your Majesty that I did not do this. I will guarantee it with my life and property."
"I also said that we have to find out whether it was you who did it. If we find out that it was not you, we will naturally let you go. You can stay in the palace for the next few days."
Chi Zhongtian smiled bitterly. He had expected this to happen. With the emperor's temperament, if he didn't really find out, how could he let him leave.
Still remembering the incident when Zhao Weixian was let go by him, the emperor already doubted himself, but he did it cleanly and left no doubts.
"Your Majesty, I obey your decree."
"Long Yun, go and make arrangements for General Chi to live in the Hui'an Palace in the south of the Imperial Garden."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
…
"Our village owner didn't come back, why did you come back alone?"
After Yongmenzhen returned home, he quickly found Qin Shang and wanted to explain a few words to Qin Shang, but he didn't expect that Qin Shang didn't buy it at all.
To Qin Shang, Yongmen Zhen was not a tutor, nor was he a high-ranking official in the dynasty, he was just an old man.
"Listen to my explanation. The Emperor insists on keeping General Chi, so I can't say anything!"
"How can you, old man, be so unreasonable? Our village owner is here to help you. What, now you are planning to just ignore it?"
"No, no, I will never ignore him. Don't worry, General Chi will be fine. The emperor will let him go in a few days."
"How many days will it take? No, you'd better think of a way. By the way, it was Long Yun who told the emperor about our village owner here?" Qin Shang suddenly asked.
"yes."
"Then, it was you who told Long Yun that you suspected that our village boss was responsible for the Ministry of War incident?"
"yes."
Qin Shang had actually known it for a long time. He was asking now because he wanted Yongmen Zhen to admit it himself.
"Old sir, if it weren't for your friendship with our village owner, I would kill you right now." Qin Shang said angrily.
After Yongmen Zhen heard this, he just smiled bitterly and said, "Don't worry, your village owner will be fine."
"There is no evidence, you are talking nonsense, for your own sake, without considering others at all. No wonder we in the world look down on you people from the imperial court, huh!"
After Qin Shang said these words, he immediately called out everyone in Mingye and left angrily.
Yongmen Zhen didn't try to keep them, and indeed he didn't have the dignity to keep them.
…
"Your Highness, I really didn't expect this. I didn't expect Chi Zhongtian to fall into it."
"Sir's plan is so clever, and Chi Zhongtian got in on his own, so he can't blame anyone else. But everything is so clever, and it looks perfect."
King De didn't sleep all night.
He had been secretly discussing something with Qi Fu in a secret room.
King De has many informants in the palace, so he knows everything that happens in the palace.
"Next, it's our turn to take action." King De said with a smile.
"Yes, Your Highness, but if we take action, it is best to bypass Chi Zhongtian and not include him in it."
"No." King De suddenly smiled and waved his hand.
"What do you mean, Your Highness?"
"Although Chi Zhongtian has a good mind, he likes to be emotional too much, so the emperor had to detain him. Moreover, sir, I just said that the reason why the emperor detained him in the palace is
Maybe it’s just a trick to lure the snake out of its hole.”
"Your Highness, we all understand what the Emperor means, so this 'snake' will definitely not come out."
"I will go to the palace tomorrow morning and follow the scheduled plan, but I plan to get rid of the dirty water on Chi Zhongtian first. As I said just now, he is an emotional person. If I help him, he will repay me.
of."
"Haha, that's what Your Highness thought. How clever!" Qi Fu praised with a smile.
King De smiled faintly, and then continued: "After Chi Zhongtian is fine, I will pretend to investigate with Chi Zhongtian and let him participate. In this case, the credibility will be higher, haha."
"Okay, good idea. Your Highness has indeed thought a little further."
"Thanks for the advice, sir!"
"Hey, Your Highness is too polite."
The next day, King De entered the palace early in the morning.
The emperor had just had breakfast at this time and was about to go to Chi Zhongtian to ask something.
"Father, I have something important to report!"
"you say."
