"That's unreasonable!" King Liang paced back and forth behind the table impatiently, and the chair had been kicked to the ground by him.
Qin Zunyin and Sun Weidong saw this scene as soon as they came in.
The two looked at each other.
"What happened to the prince?" Sun Weidong glanced at the edict on the ground and asked with some worry.
King Liang exhaled heavily from his nose, "You are not my good brother!"
Qin Zunyin bent down and picked up the Ming and Huang edicts. After a cursory glance, he roughly understood why King Liang was angry.
"Your Majesty," Qin Zunyin put the edict back on the desk, "the matter of embezzlement of military pay is too big to be hidden."
"Now that His Majesty knows it, we must make a decision as soon as possible."
Sun Weidong narrowed his eyes, "But your Majesty reprimanded the prince?"
"My imperial brother, first scolded me, and then ordered me to give him an explanation on this matter."
King Liang pointed at the edict, his eyes full of anger.
"Since His Majesty wants an explanation, then give him an explanation." Sun Weidong's narrow eyes flashed.
"It's just that we decide how to explain it."
King Liang looked at Sun Weidong and said in a deep voice: "Kill Xu Yongshen to death?"
"Exactly," Sun Weidong raised the corner of his mouth, smiling softly, "Although it is unjustifiable that Xu Yongshen, a mere county lieutenant, embezzles so much military pay, but what if Xu Yongshen wants to rebel?"
Qin Zunyin nodded in agreement, "Yes, Your Majesty, it is impossible for a county lieutenant to embezzle so much money. What about a traitor?"
"Hahaha! The traitor embezzled a large amount of military pay and attempted to rebel. It is reasonable and reasonable." King Liang raised his head and smiled, his eagle eyes sharp.
"So even if Your Majesty doesn't believe it and thinks there's something wrong with it, there's nothing you can do about it." Qin Zunyin put his hands in front of his belly and smiled slightly.
A stern look flashed in Sun Weidong's eyes, "However, we must guard the palace well and do not spread any news that should not be spread."
"It would be good to take this opportunity to clear out the spies." Qin Zunyin said quietly.
King Liang's men have become increasingly busy recently.
The first is to find out whether the person behind the Third Prince and Xu Yongshen is related to the Third Prince.
The second is to deal with Zhao Qian and pin all the blame on Xu Yongshen. Their words alone are not enough. Some evidence needs to be prepared for Xu Yongshen.
However, before Liang Wang and others were ready, their plan to prevent Xu Yongshen from implicating the palace too much and let Xu Yongshen bear all the blame had just been implemented.
In the capital, a move by the eldest prince caught them off guard!
Beijing court meeting.
"Father!" The eldest prince Zhao Xingyu strode out from the position of the civil servant on the left with an angry face.
He made a virtual fist and bowed in salute, saying, "I have my own book!"
Zhao Qian frowned slightly and said, "It's accurate."
"Father! Yesterday, I learned that Yunzhou County Lieutenant Xu Yong applied for embezzlement of Mo's military salary. King Liang had made progress for a long time, but he concealed it and did not report it!"
"Seriously?" Zhao Qian narrowed his eyes and asked, "What's the progress?"
Zhao Xingyu looked serious and angry, "The mastermind behind the military pay embezzlement case is none other than the third prince of Liang Dynasty, Zhao Yuan!"
"Now that Zhao Yuan has been imprisoned by King Liang, my father can send people to investigate secretly."
Zhao Qian looked confused and kept staring at Zhao Xingyu.
Zhao Xingyu didn't know why, "Father?"
"I already know."
Zhao Qian looked away and his voice was cold.
He had hidden stakes planted in Prince Liang's Mansion. If Ning Ce was a spy on the surface, those were secret spies.
The embezzlement of military pay was the fault of Zhao Yuan. This was something he only found out yesterday.
But Zhao Xingyu also knew it yesterday.
Zhao Qian's eyes were slightly cold.
It's a pity that Zhao Xingyu didn't notice at all, and was still happy that he could be in the limelight in the court.
My father had already wanted to take action against Prince Liang, but he had no excuse.
Now, taking advantage of this matter, even if the King of Liang cannot be killed directly, killing one of his princes can still make the King of Liang shake his muscles and bones.
After making such a great contribution, my father will definitely look upon me with admiration.
Zhao Xingyu's breathing was a little rapid, and the joy that couldn't be hidden overflowed from his face.
The eldest prince's words resounded among the officials in the court.
"Your Majesty, embezzlement of military pay is a serious matter! We must not avoid severe punishment!"
"The third prince acted like this, is he trying to rebel?"
"I'm just afraid that this third prince is just a pretense!"
"Your Majesty, this matter involves serious matters and must be investigated strictly. If necessary, the King of Liang can be summoned to the capital!"
Zhao Qian's eyes were heavy, this was an opportunity to attack Prince Liang openly.
But he couldn't be happy.
The emperor's deep eyes fell on Zhao Xingyu.
Unexpectedly, his son had more influence in Prince Liang's palace than he did.
"Quiet." Zhao Qian said coldly.
"This matter is of great importance. After all, we are not as clear as King Liang. It is better to send someone to ask King Liang for an explanation."
The sound of whispers and conversations suddenly sounded in the court hall.
Zhao Qian did not stop him and lowered his eyes to wait for them to discuss.
After a while.
"Your Majesty, I think it is feasible."
All civil and military officials agreed.
The King of Liang was the most powerful among the vassal kings. If they took action directly, angered the King of Liang and forced the other party to panic, they might not necessarily end up well.
However, although Zhao Qian and others did not intend to directly break up with King Liang through this, they did not block the news.
When the imperial envoy was sent to Yanyang to inquire about the matter, there was even more fanfare.
So on that day, the news that "the third prince of Liang Wang embezzled huge amounts of military salary" had spread throughout the capital, and was still spreading outwards.
Zhao Jin also heard about it in Yunzhou.
"Third Prince?" Zhao Jin was a little surprised.
How can Zhao Yuan alone suppress a person like Xu Yongshen?
Jin Quan clicked his tongue, "I never thought that the third prince would have the guts to commit such a thing when I was in the mansion before."
Takeda asked in a low voice: "Sir, was this really done by the third prince?"
"It's unlikely." Zhao Jin pondered for a moment and rejected it.
"He doesn't have the ability or the courage."
With the brains of the third prince, he would not be so meticulous in his actions.
Xu Yongshen and others did not commit this crime only in the past two years.
It has not been discovered for so many years. The third prince does not have this ability.
"Then who is behind this?" Xu Qi asked puzzledly.
Zhao Jin chuckled lightly, "I don't know about that. Rather than this, I might as well care about who the Yunzhou County Lieutenant is."
"As soon as the Xu Yongshen matter is resolved, the new county captain should be dispatched."
Qin Heng sighed lightly, "I hope I won't be like Xu Yongshen and Chen Jin anymore."
"The soldiers have come to cover up the water and the earth." Zhao Jin stood up and packed up the various documents on the desk.
"You came here to talk about this?"
Liang Qian rubbed his hands and smiled: "Of course not."
"Go have a drink." Yang Xu suddenly said.
"Yes, yes!" Qin Heng's eyes were bright, "It is said that Yingkelou has released two new wines."
