Feng Youxi was confused.
The last set of books had offended the prince for some reason, and they were all burned one by one.
What's this fuss about?
"Yes, Your Highness, I will try my best to get a complete set."
The prince pursed his lips and wanted to say something, but he hesitated.
Feng Youxi was accustomed to serving him. He noticed it at once and stood quietly, waiting for the prince's next order.
The prince raised his hand, pressed the base of his eyebrows, as if to hide his expression, and said in a low voice: "Find a literate eunuch to copy the books. Copy all the forbidden books of Grumpy Little Tomato. In each story book...the male protagonist's name should be replaced with , Wei Shiro."
Feng Youxi: "..."
What's the fuss about?
He didn't dare to say anything, and he noticed that the prince's expression was very difficult to explain when he said these words. He was stumbling for the first time, not even like this when he was stabbed twice and was about to die.
It wasn't until he managed to get another set of banned books and read five of them in detail that he suddenly realized why His Highness the Prince wanted to change the hero's name.
The prince, named Weiji, is the fourth among his brothers.
In fact, after the eldest prince, the second prince, and the third prince, and before the prince and the fifth prince, there were five or six other princes born, but they all died before they were one year old. There was even a little prince who was stillborn at birth.
It was all the fault of Concubine Yang.
Of course, the emperor was able to create so many princes not because he really wanted to have a son, but to serve as a shield for the three children he and the queen had.
It's a pity that the three princes and princesses were not lucky and none of them could be saved.
Feng Youxi stood outside the door of the study, secretly glad that thanks to his young age and not qualified to participate in those bloody ten years, he had the luck to serve a noble master and enjoy the blessings with His Highness the Crown Prince.
In the study, the prince was summoning the ministers.
The first person he met was his uncle Chao Guogong.
Seeing that he looked good, Duke Chao Guogong felt relieved and reported what happened during the Spring Hunting in the past few days while the prince was away.
Since the assassination that day, there has been no movement from the people behind the scenes, and nothing has happened in Harukai. However, without the crown prince, a young prince with both civil and military skills, Harukai has become boring.
At least the young ladies who had prepared for the talent show all stopped and were listless.
Chao Guogong went on to talk about some of the emperor's transfer orders: "...several senior officials were reprimanded and removed their hats, and there were a few more vacancies in the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Household Affairs."
The prince smiled.
My father must have found something. He always went out of his way to catch some clues. He didn't care whether there was any concrete evidence. Once he was suspicious, he took out some of the clues he had in the past, and he could be dismissed easily.
Even if they have no excuses, find faults, and scold them in public, those always noble courtiers will be so embarrassed and angry that they will take the initiative to beg for their bones whenever they want some face.
After talking about business, Duke Chao wanted to mention the remnants of the Yang family. He thought that this matter should not be taken care of by himself. Someone would pass the news to the prince, so he skipped it and asked with a smile: "Your Highness, Qing Yin is better. Is it? Zhuo Jing has been worried about me, please ask me."
"After lunch, Xie Yuan is going to ask for a pulse. It's great. I'm sorry for my uncle and aunt's concern." The prince's expression softened, "Tomorrow is Mrs. Zhen's birthday. Gu and Qing Yin agreed to send someone back to Beijing in the evening. Tomorrow My son picked her up early in the morning and brought her to the palace to reunite mother and daughter to celebrate her birthday. Mrs. Zhen likes to be quiet and does not make any grand arrangements. She only holds an ordinary family banquet. My uncle asked me if my aunt is free, can she bring her cousin tomorrow? Cousin, let’s have a casual meal together.”
Every time he said something, Duke Chao was secretly surprised.
Sure enough, as the lady said, the prince already regarded Qing Yin as his wife. He was still seriously injured and was thinking about celebrating the birthday of his future mother-in-law.
He was only happy in his heart, that is... Qing Yin was too honest and responsible, and he didn't know if he could stop the prince's concubines from fighting openly and secretly in the future.
Chao Guogong felt a lot of pressure and held up his hands: "If Zhuo Jing knew that my aunt was coming to the palace to celebrate her birthday, she would be happy and she would definitely come. Song Xiang and Song Chi are also thinking about their cousins. Your Highness Xie can think so thoughtfully for Qing Yin. .”
"It should be." The prince nodded, his eyebrows were faint, and he didn't appreciate the word "thank you" from his uncle's mouth. "Cousin Song Chi is talented in martial arts. My uncle must teach him carefully. Soon my father will call him as a bodyguard."
Imperial guards are different from ordinary guards. After receiving the Sacred Heart, they will be released to practice for a few years and become generals leading troops.
Duke Chao said calmly: "Yes, I will bear in mind this."
The prince waved his hand and asked him to retreat, and then summoned Cheng Rongchun, the Minister of Punishment.
Cheng Rongchun solemnly said: "Reporting to Your Highness, I am fortunate to have fulfilled my duty and have found out the mastermind behind the scenes. It should be Yang Wenyue who escaped that year. His accomplices in the court have been dismissed, seized titles, and decapitated. …”
He read out a few names, and they were all the people mentioned by Duke Chao before, "Yang Wenyue is one of the chief envoys, and the other chief envoy is commoner Wei Zheng. The emperor has sent someone to check if Wei Zheng is still in Lingnan." There is another person who is very mysterious and no one has seen him. According to a leader, he is the military advisor behind Yang Wenyue.
They initially planned to ambush and assassinate in Meiyan Mountain, but I don’t know who let the tigers and wolves into the mountain, which led His Highness to send a large number of imperial guards to search the mountain and the grassland. In the end, they had no choice but to gather in the Lingzi Lake area. They had not yet discussed a new plan. After receiving new instructions, His Highness quickly led people to encircle and suppress them. "
Having said this, Cheng Rongchun looked at the prince with admiration.
On the first day of spring hunting, the emperor encountered a tiger and a wolf. After that, the prince's actions were courageous and strategic, which is remarkable.
If the prince hadn't been stabbed in the stomach and back, he would be the most popular protagonist in the spring hunt at this moment.
The ministers who originally wanted to impeach the prince for his poor defense and escort all tore up the accusations.
The prince's index finger lightly clasped the desk.
The move of "tiger and wolf entering the mountain" is indeed a bad move that will scare the snake away.
I don’t know who made this move. Maybe there are differences within the rebel party, and someone wants to use the imperial court to get rid of the opponent?
For some reason, the first thing that came to the prince's mind was Dong Susu's face.
Could it be that she had moved her hands and feet?
It may not be impossible. She is with Song Jian and has a system nearby. When delivering the message, she can do it by using some tricks and delivering some wrong information.
He had already seen that Dong Susu's pug system is different from Zhen Qingyin's big bee system. The big bee system directly rewards crop seeds and skill books, while the pug system has a mall that rewards points, which are equivalent to gold and silver currencies. Purchase items with points.
However, the products in the system mall should be limited. He felt that there might not be the seeds and knowledge rewarded by the Big Bee system.
The two systems seem to complement each other.
Cheng Chunrong was not a princeling. After hearing his report, the prince sent him away and then summoned other ministers who asked for an audience.
Cheng Rongchun left the study, raised his sleeves and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
But after passing the prince's test, he didn't embarrass the Ministry of Punishment.
After meeting seven or eight ministers in succession, the prince drove away the remaining people on the grounds of fatigue.
Zhen Qingyin had not been seen for two hours. The prince held Feng Youxi's hand and unconsciously walked towards Zhen Qingyin's bedroom. Feng Youxi said: "Your Highness, the Queen has sent Aunt Yu to see her."
