Shangguan Yi nodded slightly, seemingly satisfied with Jiang Lin's words.
Seeing that Shangguan Yi was still very calm, Jiang Lin couldn't help but said: "My subordinates have also heard about what happened in the palace."
"My lord, don't you plan to go to the palace and discuss countermeasures with the Queen?"
Shangguan Yi gently stroked his beard: "What are you doing in the palace?"
"The prince is just sympathetic to His Majesty, so he occasionally goes to the cabinet to supervise work."
"This act of filial piety moves heaven and earth. Your Majesty will definitely understand."
While the two were talking, a servant quickly entered and presented a secret letter to Jiang Lin.
Jiang Lin unfolded it and took a look, and his expression changed instantly.
"Sir, it's not good."
"The Emperor has ordered the execution of Zhao Zhong, the eunuch in charge of the cabinet, and has grounded His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Second Prince respectively!"
"Would you like to get up and go to the palace to meet the Holy Spirit and intercede for His Highness the Crown Prince..."
After hearing this, Shangguan Yi finally sat upright from the recliner.
After thinking for a moment, Shangguan Yi lay back on the chair again.
"No need!"
"Zhao Zhong is dead, and the emperor's true purpose has been achieved."
"Grounding the prince is nothing more than a small punishment but a big punishment."
Jiang Lin was a little surprised: "You mean..."
Shangguan Yi snorted coldly: "Zhao Zhong was promoted to the cabinet by me. The emperor may have disliked him for a long time, but he never knew how to find a reason to get rid of him."
"Zhao Zhong is unlucky today. He is just a eunuch. If he dies, he will die."
"After waiting for a while, just promote someone new to the cabinet!"
Jiang Lin continued to ask: "Aren't you worried about the prince being grounded?"
Shangguan Yi was not nervous at all when this matter was mentioned.
"The Emperor has a total of four sons. Except for one fool, there are only three left."
"I just don't believe that the emperor can ground two of the princes in one go!"
"At most, it's just 50 big boards each."
"but……"
Having said this, Shangguan Yi showed a playful smile.
"Who exactly caused what happened today is worthy of further investigation."
Jiang Lin nodded and agreed: "Not bad!"
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been in and out of the cabinet every day during this period. He has always been extremely secretive. Even the servants in the East Palace did not know about it."
"I was discovered by the Second Prince today. I don't know who tipped him off!"
"Sir, do you think it could be the third prince next to the second prince?"
"The second prince is more than brave but not resourceful. He usually has to rely on the third prince for advice..."
Shangguan Yi did not comment on Jiang Lin's words, but his deep eagle eyes could not see the bottom at a glance, and he was obviously deep in thought.
It seems that the third prince is going to join forces with the second prince to the end...
…
The sun sets over the western mountains and dusk is about to sink.
"Your Highness, please be gentle...it hurts~"
"Just bear with the pain and it will get better. I'll be in soon!"
"Your Highness, it's really too dry! I can't get in! Why don't you try applying some oil..."
In the fourth prince's bedroom.
Song Huan was so idle that he suddenly had a whim and polished a wooden bracelet with some mahogany materials left in the backyard.
I originally wanted to try it on my maid Cuimei, but I didn't know that the inner wall of this bracelet was too small and I couldn't put it on no matter how hard I put it on.
A trace of sweat appeared on Cuimei's forehead, and the girl's fragrance mixed with it penetrated into Song Huan's nose, which made Song Huan feel uneasy for a while.
For the hot-blooded Song Huan, having a flower-like maid by his side to serve him is hard not to let people imagine!
Just when Song Huan was about to make some small moves.
Suddenly, a loud bang was heard outside the door.
"Fourth!"
"You still have time to play around here!"
Immediately afterwards, the third prince Song Liang was seen looking bitter and resentful, and he barged in without even saying hello.
Seeing Song Huan and Cuimei staying close to each other in the dormitory, Song Liang frowned even more.
"Second brother is in trouble now. Instead of thinking about how to get him out, you are still here flirting with the palace maid!"
"Don't you care about a little bit of brotherly love?"
...Don’t you see that your brother I am busy?
If you come in and disturb your brother when he is busy, do you think you are caring about brotherhood?
Song Huan immediately felt dissatisfied.
"Second brother is just grounded by my father, there's nothing to make a fuss about."
"You'll be out in two days!"
Seeing Song Huan's attitude that the matter had nothing to do with him, Song Liang couldn't help but get angry.
"Second brother was obviously involved by the prince! If you don't ask your father to plead for mercy now, you might get the same punishment as the prince!"
"What's more, the general is out leading troops and has not returned yet. There is no one in the court who can speak to the second brother!"
"The only two brothers I can rely on are you and me!"
The more Song Liang talked, the more anxious he became. It seemed that as soon as Song De was banned, he also lost his support.
"No, no matter what you say today, you have to go with me to find my father and plead for my second brother!"
After saying that, Song Liang stepped forward to drag Song Huan to find Emperor Liang, regardless of whether Song Huan was willing or not.
"calm down!"
Song Huan originally thought that Song Liang, who often made suggestions by Song De's side, must be quite mature and steady.
Looking at him now, he is just a mediocre person who acts impulsively.
At most, he only has a little more brains than Song De!
"If my father wanted to punish the crown prince and his second brother, he would definitely issue an edict as soon as possible today!"
"Why wait until things cool down completely?"
"It's just a fight between a few ignorant sons. Let's stay calm for a few days and the matter will be over."
"What else?"
After listening to Song Huan's words, Song Liang, who was originally excited, finally calmed down.
……etc.
Something is wrong!
As the most talented person in the world, he will be famous all his life!
Why are you listening to this idiot's command now?
Song Liang straightened his body and coughed twice involuntarily.
"Ahem, of course I understand what you said!"
"I just care about my second brother, and it's just a matter of urgency."
"But how do you know these great truths?"
Song Huan pointed at the history book placed aside.
"The book has its own beauty like jade, and the book has its own golden house!"
"Father has always said that we should read more books. When I read it today, I learned a lot."
Seeing the clear stupidity in Song Huan's eyes, which really didn't look like he was pretending, Song Liang finally felt relieved.
Haha, a fool is still a fool after all.
Occasionally, one or two words that can only be said by normal people make people feel a little abnormal!
Thinking of this, Song Liang couldn't help but laugh a few times and suddenly felt relaxed.
He neither has the background of a prince, nor does he have the second uncle who can lead troops to fight.
All I can do is stick to my second son every day and rely on others to breathe!
