Knowing that this matter is not something to be trifled with and not being named by him, I don't know how to feel lucky. Who would take the initiative to go back?
Only Zhao Aiqing!
The secret guard did not have the chance to get too close, so he did not know how the three adults discussed and handled the matter, but this was not important to the emperor, because they would naturally report the results to him.
What he was more concerned about was the origin and truth of the so-called rumors.
Although he already knew from his beloved son that the so-called "rumors" were not rumors but facts, he still wanted to know the details.
The secret guards under the emperor are quite good. At this moment, they have collected all the information and compiled it to report to him.
The more he listened, the more unhappy the emperor's face became.
His son pushed everything away, but the reality was not like that
For him, a simple "disappointment" can no longer describe his mood at this moment!
When Lin Yushi and Zhao Xiang asked for an audience, the emperor was still immersed in irritable and somewhat confused thoughts. He sighed softly and ordered the two of them to enter the palace.
Even though Lin Yushi wanted to stand aside when dealing with the matter and it had nothing to do with him, now when he was reporting back, Lin Yushi was much more calm. He reported 1510 times and presented a memorial, but Zhao Xiang didn't show any performance at all.
opportunity.
Zhao Xiang and the emperor knew clearly what "this matter" refers to.
However, Deputy Commander Zhang was not punished. The emperor was very unhappy and immediately issued an order to remove Deputy Commander Zhang and never hire him again.
The emperor was angry and disappointed. This son has indeed changed!
In other words, he has never understood this son.
Those damn Zhou Hansheng and Zhao Liya had tricked him, and Zhao Xiang quietly used dirty tricks to make him fall on them one after another. It was so frustrating!
Zhao Xiang's eyes flashed: "Wei Chen just accepts your Highness's words. Wei Chen has nothing to say to Your Highness about what happened today, so Wei Chen will leave."
Really, just thinking about it made him angry.
"Back off."
Zhao Xiang bowed and walked backwards.
Zhao Xiang said that some people took the opportunity to avenge themselves and extort money. The emperor was 100% convinced that there was definitely such a thing, and there would be many more.
"But Weichen didn't expect that the news from the Nine City Soldiers and Horses Division came so quickly. It didn't take long for someone to come to the teahouse to take someone away."
Zhou Hansheng and Zhao Liya both breathed a sigh of relief. Zhao Liya smiled and ordered someone to get water to wipe his father's face, and ordered hot tea, "That's good, I'll be relieved that dad is fine!"
Zhao Xiang immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I forgive you. Half of today's events were plotted by minor officials, and half were not. Your Majesty, this incident has caused a storm in the city, including the Shuntian Prefecture Yamen, the Nine City Military and Horse Division, the Ministry of Punishment, and Dali.
All the yamen in the temple were searched and captured and spread throughout the city.
Those who discussed the 'rumours', some with evil intentions took the opportunity to avenge themselves, or extorted money, which made people panic. It was difficult for the ministers to interfere with the matter, so they thought of a way to let the emperor know about it, so that the matter could be settled.
, we can’t keep going like this.”
When Zhao Xiang returned home, Zhou Hansheng was also there. Zhao Liya and Zhou Hansheng looked at each other with concern, "Dad!", "Father-in-law!"
Zhao Xiang's expression paused, and he bowed to the second prince: "Good morning, Your Highness!"
The emperor had no objection to their outcome.
The second prince said coldly: "You only have this kind of despicable method, and you can only use this method! It's really despising! However, this is the end. If you want to do it again in the future, it is just a dream."
!Zhao Xiang, just wait, I will keep these things in mind, and the future will be long, hum!"
After the emperor and his ministers exchanged a few words, the emperor ordered Lin Yushi to step down and said, "Qing Zhao is here to stay. I have something to say."
Zhao Xiang didn't care and waited nearby.
Zhao Xiang smiled bitterly and said bluntly: "Your Majesty, I dare not. If I really do that, wouldn't I become a villain? If I dare, the emperor will not believe it, so I will tell him from the side like this.
It seemed more appropriate, but I didn’t expect things to get out of control.”
"Yes, Wei Chen resigns."
Otherwise, those people from the Nine Cities Soldiers and Horses Division would not be so arrogant!
"Don't you know? What I want to say is that one family does not belong to the same family. The marriage between Mr. Zhao and Duke Li Guo is indeed very suitable. Mr. Zhao should be extremely satisfied with this marriage, right?"
The emperor couldn't hold in his breath until he could not come down or go down.
However, Lin Yushi had no idea what the situation was like when dealing with this matter. The emperor had already known the situation.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I obey your orders."
Zhao Xiang did not expect that when leaving the palace, the second prince happened to be coming out of Concubine Yan in Guanju Palace, and the two met near the palace gate.
The emperor retreated and was not polite to Zhao Xiang. He asked straight to the point: "What happened today was Zhao Qing's design? Did Zhao Qing deliberately want me to know about this?"
The emperor closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
There is no need to say this to him. At worst, he will just resign and not do anything, so what?
The worst he can do is go to Lingnan. Speaking of which, he still misses it a lot.
The second prince did not expect that his harsh words would soon reach the emperor's ears.
The people he spoke to were arranged by him, but the subsequent series of events were not.
The emperor's face could not be said to be ugly or good-looking, and he said calmly: "Ai Qing, you never thought that this matter would get out of control?"
"I don't know what your highness is talking about."
Lin Yushi felt a little jealous, but he didn't dare to show it in front of the emperor. He could only accept the order to express gratitude and bow out respectfully.
Zhao Xiang smiled and waved his hand: "It doesn't matter, there is no danger, and today's matter is over."
The second prince An? sneered and walked towards Zhao Xiang: "Master Zhao is really smart. He did this without saying a word. Ha, I admire you!"
The emperor added: "Why is this matter so troublesome? Wouldn't it be convenient for Zhao Qing to report it directly to me?"
This cannot be said to be wrong.
Zhao Xiang paused and slowly left.
Zhao Xiang smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I really didn't expect that!"
After the second prince finished speaking, he waved his sleeves and left.
He complained that Zhao Xiang didn't tell him, but in fact Zhao Xiang also told him, but the way of telling was not straightforward.
Zhao Xiang bowed and saluted.
Zhou Hansheng bowed to Zhao Xiang and said, "Thank you, father-in-law!"
No one is suitable to do this. Zhou Hansheng can't come forward, not even the prince, only Zhao Xiang. However, it's like walking on a tightrope. The emperor has a bad temper and is very suspicious. No one dares to know what will happen.
affim.
Zhao Xiang took a short break, then briefly told the two of them what had happened, and then said to Zhou Hansheng, "Just pretend that nothing happened. Just be honest."
Zhou Hansheng nodded and couldn't help but sneer at the second prince.
