Chapter 422 The Heart of His Royal Highness

After Zhu Houzhao finished speaking, his eyes fell on a plump woman in the water, his eyes flickered slightly, Mou Biao laughed when he saw this,
"It's not impossible for His Highness to eat flower wine. All the women in this boat have already been booked. Whoever His Highness likes can be called into the room!"

They are all men, Mou Biao couldn't see the look in the prince's eyes, he was secretly surprised,
"I heard that Mu Yourong served the bed as soon as she entered the East Palace, and the prince was still with her every day to serve her. Although she has no status yet, it will be a matter of time. He also changed his identity and entered the Eastern Palace, the Crown Prince also has many beauties in the Eastern Palace, how could he even be attracted to such a vulgar fan, could it be that he got tired of it so quickly?"

Speaking of this place, he felt emotional, he lived two lifetimes, met two princes, the prince in front was out of temper, not like an emperor, never serious, but he was devoted to his wife, When I was a general, the emperor and empress had been married for ten years, and they had always been harmonious and deeply affectionate. On the surface, this person was dignified, benevolent and pure, but inside... it seemed to be the same as the current Emperor Hongzhi. , is also very lustful!
Mou Biao smiled and said nothing, Zhu Houzhao smiled and watched the woman being hugged by a man, the two entangled and dived into the water, his eyes flashed and he turned his head to look at Mou Biao seriously,
"I heard that Xiao Lin has disappeared from brothels since he got married. I'm afraid that seeing Ben Gong in such a place today is not just to treat Ben Gong to a flower bar?"

Mou Biao smiled and cupped his hands,

"Your Highness is attracting everyone's attention, and the minister has a special status. When the court is in chaos, talking in this kind of place can prevent the ears of the wall!"

Zhu Houzhao raised his eyebrows,
"What does Xiao Lin have to say to Ben Gong?"

Mou Biao smiled, invited Zhu Houzhao to sit at the table, held up the wine jug that had been prepared on the table by the window with both hands, respectfully poured wine for Zhu Houzhao, and then poured a glass for himself, and raised his glass with a smile,
"Your Highness, please!"

Zhu Houzhao raised his head with a smile and drank it down. The two put down their glasses, but Mou Biao didn't make a fuss and said,
"Your Highness is wise and enlightened. I see that the situation in the court has been somewhat turbulent recently. I wonder what His Highness thinks?"

Zhu Houzhao smiled and said,

"My palace has only just entered politics, and it is said that I shouldn't comment on the court situation, but when Xiaolin asked, I naturally have something to say..."

After thinking about it,

"According to my palace, now that all the officials are angry, Jin Yiwei is really hard to escape!"

Mou Biao sneered in his heart,
"It's as if we provoked it. If you don't make up your mind, how can you harm Concubine Li Gui and what happened today?"

On his face, he responded with a wry smile,
"What your highness said is that your highness is no better than others. Naturally, the minister has something to say. Your highness should know that Jin Yiwei only obeyed orders, and now he has become the target of public criticism because of no other choice!"

Zhu Houzhao nodded,
"That's what I said, but...Master Mou can also advise Father or something..."

Mou Biao smiled wryly again,
"The crown prince was joking. Jin Yiwei is a servant of the royal family, and he can only obey orders. He would never dare to disobey orders and slack off. What's more... Your majesty may not listen to my father's words!"

You caused trouble yourself, let us take the blame, if your father and son fight in the Tian family, if it is so easy to persuade, this emperor... Let me be the emperor!

Zhu Houzhao frowned upon hearing this,
"Follow the order, if this order causes turmoil in the current situation and the courtiers are panicked, will Jin Yiwei still carry it out?"

Mou Biao secretly sneered when he heard the words,
"It's simple for you to say, if my father dares to disobey, I'm afraid the commander of Jinyiwei will have to replace him tomorrow!"

This kind of behavior of being a hawk and a tool for killing people is contemptible, but it is really dangerous, but riches and honor are charming eyes, if you don't do it, some people will do it!
Besides, if the Mou family can retreat safely at this time, Mou Biao is really looking forward to someone coming to pick up this hot potato!
Hearing what the prince meant, did he actually want to pin this matter on Jin Yiwei?
Mou Biao was a little annoyed,

"It's true that I'm your family's slave, but a slave is also a human being, and you don't want to take the blame if you want to pull it out. With your heart and behavior, no wonder your father doesn't want to pass the seat to you!"

While cursing in his heart, he said with a smile on his face,

"This is exactly what Weichen is young and has little knowledge, so he really can't figure it out. He still needs to ask His Highness a few words..."

"Oh... Is there anything I want to ask Bengong?"

"According to what your highness said, the instability of the court is caused by the order of the superiors. Then why did the superiors come out? Your highness should know a thing or two. I feel that there is always a reason for things to happen. How can there be results without a cause? The ministers also don't want to make people panic in the court, be pointed at by others, and become the target of everyone, if we can catch the real murderer, then everything will be calmed down, hello, hello, everyone?"

You want us to take the blame, and we want to drag you into the water!

Zhu Houzhao lowered his face when he heard the words, and said with a sneer,

"You told me this, do you want to say that the culprit is me?"

Exactly!You brought this on yourself!

Mou Biao smiled and filled him with wine again,
"Your Highness misunderstood, how dare I accuse Your Highness, this matter is definitely not His Highness's fault, but I have been exhausted after investigating the case for a while, and I heard that His Majesty is still furious, I really don't want to implicate innocent people like this... ..."

After a pause, he suddenly changed the subject.
"...Wei Chen heard that Mr. Wang was sick at home again. I don't know if he is feeling better now?"

Zhu Houzhao was taken aback for a moment, then his face sank for a while,

"What does Xiao Lin mean by that?"

Mou Biao laughed and said,

"There is no other intention. Mr. Wang is a veteran of the three dynasties. He is the most upright and honest person. I have heard about Mr. Wang's deeds since I was a child, and I admire him very much. I heard that Mr. Wang is not feeling well, so I am very concerned about it! "

Zhu Houzhao squinted at him for a while, then said slowly,
"The Tai Tuo is already in good health, but his spirit is not good when he is old, and he no longer has to worry about many things!"

"Oh... is it..."

Mou Biao laughed again,

"Your Majesty has made great contributions to the society. Now that you are old, you should take a good rest. You can't really close the door and ignore the outside world..."

Zhu Houzhao and Mou Biao looked at each other for a long time with piercing eyes. After a while, he raised his hand and drank the wine in the glass, got up and said,

"It's getting late, I'm going back!"

Mou Biao got up and bowed his hands in salute.

"Send it to Your Highness!"

Zhu Houzhao turned around and went to the hatch, looked back at Mou Biao,
"Xiao Lin's drink, Ben Gong ate it, and got the love!"

hey-hey!What I want is your words!
Mou Biao smiled and saluted,
"Your Highness, let's go!"

But he opened the door and invited Zhu Houzhao to go out, watched him go out in the boat that he got on board with someone's support, then closed the door, turned around and went to the window, there were few pairs of wild mandarin ducks playing in the lake Yes, but there were footsteps coming from behind, and someone came in and said with a smile,

"Baye's friend is gone?"

Mou Biao turned around and smiled,
"I'm going to trouble you today, those beads will be counted on my account, and I'll treat you to wine later when I'm free!"

Gu San smiled and said,

"Baye said so...you don't consider me a friend, a little pearl is nothing, now that the third batch of goods is going to Beijing, brother, I rely on Baye to make a lot of money, do you still care about this idea?"

After all, he laughed and pulled Mou Biao to say,
"Come on, let's go up and have a drink!"

That night when Mou Biao returned to Maoer Hu, it was already late at night. Si Lian opened her eyes in a daze when she heard the movement, but saw Mou Biao was undressing with his back to her. The knotted knots, with clear lines, made Si Lian blush for a while, but the clothes that were thrown on the ground could smell a faint smell of incense powder, Si Lian frowned, sat up, and just stood still Looking at him, Mou Biao turned his head and smiled, seeing her eyes on the ground, he leaned over and hugged his clothes and said with a smile,
"I've smoked you, I'll wash it off first..."

Silian didn't speak, just watched him go to the clean room quietly, and after a while he came back with a wet face, wiped his body with a handkerchief, and said,

"It's true that I stayed on the flower boat for a day today, and it's inevitable that I got smelled on my body..."

After finishing speaking, he paused to look at Silian's face, raised three fingers of his right hand and said seriously,
"But... Si Lian, you have to believe it... I didn't touch those flower girls at all..."

"If... it doesn't get on your body... where does the powder smell come from?"

Mou Biao hurriedly explained,

"There were only two men and a lot of women in that room. After sitting for a long time, I got smoked... I... I... If I get in touch with them, I will be fined... I will be fined to go out tomorrow and be hacked by knives." die!"

Silian bit her lip and stared at him for a long while, until Mou Biao felt chills on his back, then she calmed down, sat up straight, took the handkerchief from his hand and wiped his head,

"Are you going to the flower boat for something?"

Listening to her tone, Mou Biao knew that he had believed him, and he felt relieved, and said with a smile,

"I made an appointment with the prince to meet there, and afterward, I had a midnight drink with Gu San..."

Four lotus wonders,

"Why did you ask the prince to meet on the flower boat?"

After Mou Biaoquan told what his father had ordered, Si Lian frowned.

"In this way, isn't it true that your majesty and the crown prince are fighting each other, and how many of you are caught in the middle to suffer?"

Mou Biao gave a wry smile, but leaned back with a tired face, and put his head on her coiled thigh,
"That's what we do!"

Jin Yiwei is the product of the struggle between imperial power and political power. He is a domineering emperor on horseback like Taizu and Taizong.

But after getting off the horse, this huge country cannot be governed by him alone. The emperor needs officials, and officials need officials to convey government orders for them, control the people, collect taxes, build roads and embankments, maintain law and order, etc. It's too big, even if the hero is the best in the world, he still has to rule the world with the scholar-bureaucrats, so as to ensure long-term peace and stability, and the people live and work in peace and contentment.
