"My lord, news just came from the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce. Someone has entered the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce. His whereabouts are very suspicious. He is suspected to be someone from the third prince!"
Not long after returning to Xiaobieyuan, Suzaku came to report.
"The third prince's people?"
Zhao Xiaole frowned a little, "Did the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce react at all?"
"not yet."
Zhao Xiaole nodded and waved Suzaku to retreat first.
"The third prince is now sending people into the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce. There are two situations."
"One way is to take the opportunity to conquer the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce and use it for your own use."
"But at present, this goal will definitely not be accomplished in a short time. After all, even within the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, they are not monolithic!"
Zhao Xiaole looked thoughtful, "Then there is only the second scenario left, which is that he wants to take the opportunity to instigate a relationship between the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce and the prince, in order to achieve the purpose of 'the snipe and the clam fight, and the fisherman gets the benefit'."
"We really have to guard against this, but if we really have to fight, how will the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce counterattack the prince..."
Zhao Xiaole couldn't think of it and was too lazy to think about it.
Anyway, the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce has its own people monitoring it at all times, so there won't be any big problems.
So instead he calmed down and started practicing.
For Zhao Xiaole now, practicing martial arts has almost become his daily instinct.
If you don't practice for a day, your whole body will feel uncomfortable.
Practicing in this way every day, he found that the Qi in his body changed from "little water drops" to a string of "water lines", and finally turned into a "stream".
This made him feel inexplicably excited, and he practiced even harder.
Although he only slept for a short five hours, he still felt refreshed when he woke up early the next morning.
"Sir, the prince's people are already waiting outside, saying that the prince wants you to go to the morning court with him."
Hongni said while tying Zhao Xiaole's clothes.
"Well, I know!"
Zhao Xiaole nodded.
This has already been discussed.
If the two of them go together, they can take care of each other if anything happens.
Otherwise, it would be really difficult for the prince to withstand the pressure from all sides alone.
After washing, Zhao Xiaole pinched Hongni's pink face and said with a smile: "Just wait for me at home, or else I will spank you when I come back!"
The little red face immediately turned red, and her eyes looked expectant: "Yes!"
When they arrived at the prince's palace, Zhao Xiaole didn't wait long before the prince walked out of the palace.
He still has that handsome and delicate face, and he looks like a handsome guy at first glance.
It's just that her already strong pectoralis major muscles became even more exaggerated.
Zhao Xiaole sighed, he felt panicked for the prince.
"Xiao Le, just as you expected, there were more than a dozen impeachment letters in the imperial study room last night from ministers who were originally neutral."
The prince said with a gloomy face: "And some of them were originally censors belonging to this palace, and they have also filed petitions to impeach you."
"But I never let these people do this!"
At this point, her tone became a little serious.
Zhao Xiaole understood in his heart.
This also means that many of the officials who originally took refuge in the East Palace were spies planted by the other party!
With the prince's strict character, someone actually planted a spy. No wonder she was so angry.
He immediately smiled and said: "Your Highness, there is no need to be angry. This may not be a bad thing for Your Highness. It is better to be exposed earlier than to be exposed at a more critical moment."
"After this matter is over, His Highness can conduct a thorough investigation!"
The prince nodded.
She had this idea as early as when she learned the news.
Speaking out now is just to vent the dissatisfaction in my heart.
As they spoke, a magnificent palace appeared in front of their eyes.
This is where the emperor went to morning court every day
Ride to Gozen!
I'm afraid only the prince in Pangyang has this honor.
At this time, dozens of important officials of the imperial court were already standing on the imperial steps in front of Huangji Gate.
They immediately saw a splendid and extremely extravagant chariot slowly approaching the Huangji Gate.
This chariot and even the mahogany door frame are all painted with a thin layer of gold paint, not to mention the door curtains and curtains, which are all made of fine silk and satin.
Even the car body is inlaid with the finest jade that is rare in the world!
Although these things are not extremely beautiful when paired together.
But in one word, expensive!
The prince once said, don’t ask for the best, but the most expensive!
So this chariot is basically made of Panorama’s most expensive materials!
When the court officials saw this, even though their eyes were green with envy, they still shook their heads and left a comment, "It is extravagant and cannot be reused"!
"Your Highness!"
Seeing the prince coming, these people immediately bowed and saluted.
No disrespect whatsoever.
Because the prince now has more than just the status of being the heir to the Eastern Palace.
She is also the supervisor of the Jingyang Dynasty!
Basically, during the period when the Emperor is away, she is the Emperor!
But when they saw Zhao Xiaole showing off his power next to the prince, a trace of disdain immediately flashed in their eyes and they all turned their heads.
Zhao Xiaole was too lazy to pay attention to them and followed the prince into the main hall.
At this time, the hall was already filled with courtiers.
And right at the head of the ministers, Zhao Xiaole saw Liu Boern, who was smiling sinisterly.
Next to him, stood a young man wearing a gilt python robe.
This person has a gentle face and always has a spring-like smile on his face, making him look very kind.
As soon as he saw the prince, he immediately greeted him with great enthusiasm.
"Brother, you miss me so much!"
"When I was in Liezhou, I heard that you had been assassinated. I was so worried that I rushed back from Liezhou immediately just to see you. How about it? Are you injured anywhere?"
As he said that, he became very "concerned" and wanted to check the prince's injury.
The prince blocked him directly and sneered: "Haha, the third brother came back from Liezhou, I'm afraid it's not to visit me, right?"
"how come?"
The third prince said without blushing and out of breath: "I even brought ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum back from Liezhou just to heal my eldest brother!"
The prince immediately laughed and said: "I appreciate Third Brother's kindness, but the assassin did not hurt me at all, so I won't bother Third Brother to worry about it!"
"Oh? Not hurt?"
The third prince quickly took a few glances at the prince's face, and sure enough he saw that his face was rosy, his breathing was steady, and he obviously had no injuries on his body.
Suddenly, a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes and he said: "Haha, that's good, that's good..."
Seeing him looking like he wished he could die soon, the prince didn't bother to talk nonsense with them anymore and sat directly on the right hand side of the dragon chair.
On the left side of the dragon chair, behind the bead curtain, there is also a chair. There is the queen's seat.
When the emperor was seriously ill, the prince supervised the country and the queen listened to the government.
This is the national policy set by Jingyang.
It is precisely for this reason that the queen has the opportunity to intervene in government affairs!
Zhao Xiaole stood behind the prince and suddenly found that many people's eyes were fixed on him.
Full of coldness.
At this moment, an official wearing a scarlet robe stood up.
"Li Yan, the imperial censor, impeached the eunuch Zhao Xiaole for being so domineering and causing chaos in the East Palace. He should be sentenced to death!"
