Invincible son

Chapter 634 633 [Man Court Frost]

The large-scale Shuo Ri Chao Hui came to an abrupt end, and the civil and military officials were in complicated moods, and more people were at a loss as to what to do.

The matter was obviously not resolved, but when Emperor Kaiping, who had always been diligent in administration, suddenly quit, no one dared to make trouble at this time, and even the censors at all levels in Yushitai remained surprisingly silent.These Qingliu civil servants knew in their hearts that if they forcibly persuaded His Majesty to investigate the matter thoroughly, I am afraid that the lightest treatment would be a resignation from office and fifty court scepters.

It would be fine if he advised His Majesty about his own fault, at least he could leave a mark in the history, but there are many deadly secrets in this matter, most likely it will only be covered up by the spring and autumn style of writing.

The officials slowly withdrew from Chengtian Palace, at this moment, all the inner eunuchs came to announce the decree, and summoned the important officials of the two governments and four adult princes to enter the imperial study. What made others envious was that Pei Yue's name was included in the list .

Although they were quite envious of Pei Yue's family members, these people did not slow down in the slightest, because today's incident was obviously a big fire pit, and no one wanted to be involved in it.

The important officials of the two governments were in front, the princes were behind, and Pei Yue took the initiative to stay at the back of the team.

Then, a group of people walked into the imperial study.

Emperor Kaiping looked solemn, but fortunately he was not as angry as some ordinary courtiers expected.

He ordered the inner eunuch to grant seats to the four important ministers. Although the princes are distinguished, they obviously only have the place to stand here.After everyone confessed their crimes and sat down, Emperor Kaiping looked at Pei Yue who was standing alone in the distance, pointed at him and said to the inner eunuch, "Move a stool for Marquis Zhongshan."

Pei Yue cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I can just stand here."

Emperor Kaiping said in a deep voice: "You are the one who suffers, and the Tian family is sorry for you in this matter. I have to clean up the mess for some people."

Pei Yue subconsciously raised his eyes to look at the other party, and saw that His Majesty's demeanor was as cold as frost. The gentleness and looseness of a few days ago had long since disappeared, and he once again became the cold-blooded king who killed and decisively regarded the world as pawns.

He knew the reason for this change very well, so he didn't refuse any more, and bowed his head: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Emperor Kaiping didn't look at the four princes standing in a row next to him, and said to the important officials of the two governments: "It is said that family ugliness should not be publicized, but today I have lost all face. Brothers smashed the wall and murdered heroes. This is all done by my son. It’s a good thing. Dear friends, it’s because I didn’t discipline these rebellious sons well, and I’m really ashamed of my ancestors.”

Mo Haoli shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, please forgive the old minister for being presumptuous. What does this have to do with Your Majesty? It was clearly instigated by those villains with sinister intentions, so that the two Highnesses did not notice their mistakes for a while. Your Majesty is diligent in governing day and night. , Daliang was able to prosper in national strength far surpassing Wu and Zhou, the DPRK and China were full of talents, and the border was safe and secure, all this is due to His Majesty, and it is really not a shame."

Wang Pingzhang also said: "Your Majesty, the first battle of Western Wu lost more than half of the country's power, and within ten years, there will be no courage to start a national war. The Southern Zhou Dynasty was shrunk, and the only thing we relied on was the difficulty of the sky. Crossing the river with one effort can break it If it weren't for your Majesty's wisdom and martial arts, how would the ministers have the opportunity to see the prosperity of the unified world?"

These two big figures were half consoling and half flattering, which made Emperor Kaiping feel a lot better.

Although Luo Ting and Gu Liang did not open their mouths to agree, they did not jump out and sing the opposite at this time.

Emperor Kaiping nodded slightly, turned to look at the four princes, and said in a deep voice, "Liu Xian."

The eldest prince responded: "My son is here."

Emperor Kaiping looked at his calm appearance, and softened his tone a little: "Did you send someone to assassinate Pei Yue and the daughter of the Dingguo Mansion?"

The eldest prince remembered Wu Guifei's advice, shook his head and said: "Father, I never ordered Ning Fengzhi to lead someone to assassinate Pei Yue. At that time, he said that this matter was ordered by Pingyang, and I couldn't bear Pingyang's infamy and heavy punishment. , and took the matter down."

Emperor Kaiping said indifferently: "Why don't you want to take it now?"

The eldest prince replied: "Father, I have been thinking over and over again for the past few days and found that Ning Fengzhi has a flaw. If he has no ghosts in his heart, why didn't he tell this matter from the beginning to the end? There is a rift between Erchen and Pei Yue It's true, Pingyang did have conflicts with Pei Yue, but Ning Fengzhi should at least seek the consent of the minister in advance. Therefore, the minister guessed that he was instigated by others."

Emperor Kaiping was silent for a moment, but looked at the second prince and said, "Did you let that Qian Yong hook up with Ning Fengzhi and design to frame Liu Xian?"

The second prince said angrily and aggrievedly: "Father, if this son has such a heart, he will be destroyed! I implore Father to send Master Shen of Taishi Taige to thoroughly investigate this matter, and return my son's innocence!"

Emperor Kaiping said indifferently: "There is no need to investigate."

Everyone was shocked, and the second prince fell into an ice cave in an instant.

Emperor Kaiping continued: "Since others dare to plot against you, why not be fully prepared? Going to investigate that Qian Yong now will only bring out more evidence pointing to you, and completely confirm your crime of designing and framing Liu Xian." .At that time, you won't even be able to be a general of Zhen Guo, and I can only save your life at most."

The second prince was stunned, with a puzzled look on his face.

The eldest prince vaguely understood, and looked at the two brothers on the other side with complicated eyes.

Emperor Kaiping looked at the gloomy fourth prince, and said coldly: "I have given you many opportunities, why do you still not know how to cherish them?"

The fourth prince shook his head and said, "Father, I don't understand what you mean by this."

Emperor Kaiping sneered and said, "Pei Yue!"

Pei Yue met the eyes of everyone looking over, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, you are already in the palace."

"Bring it in!"

"The minister obeys the order."

After about a stick of incense, Pei Yue personally escorted a middle-aged man into the imperial study.

After seeing this person, the First Prince couldn't help saying angrily: "Ning Fengzhi!"

If Emperor Kaiping wasn't nearby, he would definitely rush up and beat up the counselor who betrayed him.

The fourth prince's expression was extremely subtle at this moment.

When Pei Yue got up to leave, he seemed to have guessed what was going to happen next, and a faint smile appeared on his face involuntarily.When Pei Yue appeared with Ning Fengzhi, the smile on his face grew stronger, and then he actually laughed out loud in the imperial study.

He smiled and sighed: "So it is, so it is."

The Second Prince and the Sixth Prince subconsciously distanced themselves from him, Wang Pingzhang and Gu Liang's stern and stern eyes shrouded him, but at this moment, it was the First Prince who took the initiative to step forward and stood between him and Emperor Kaiping.

Ning Fengzhi's face turned gray and he didn't say a word.

Emperor Kaiping looked at the fourth prince and said coldly, "What do you want to say?"

The fourth prince faced Pei Yue, and said with a self-deprecating smile: "That day in the bamboo building, you tried everything you could to get me to promise to find Ning Fengzhi's family for you, and if you think about it, you have already hidden him nearby. This is to defeat his defenses, right? As long as I refuse to let go, Ning Fengzhi will never dare to betray me, but it is precisely because I let go that he will tell you the truth."

He paused, and said with complicated eyes: "Pei Yue, your ability to calculate is really amazing."
