Lonely non-good minister

"Sir, if you can do this for me, you can do whatever you want with the south occupied by the royal family." Song Yuan said in a loud voice.

The excited great witch Zhiyan suddenly calmed down a lot: "Master Jiu is willing to give up?"

"Why are you reluctant to let go? These people are of no help to the stability of the country. Their offspring are prosperous, but most of them are moths. They spend a lot of money every year to raise them. They also have bad intentions and always come out to threaten the imperial power when the country is in trouble. If I were a gentleman, I'm afraid you don't like people of the same race like this, right?" Song Yuan's tone was very calm when he spoke, without any emotion.

The great witch Zhiyan came closer and looked at her: "Master Jiu must think clearly. Once these people are gone, the royal family will be weak. If there is a big turmoil one day, the country will have to be handed over to others, and the heirs will wither. Killing each other is a taboo in bloodline inheritance."

"Sir, are you confused?" Song Yuan also stared into his eyes: "Who can still sit on a dynasty for eternity? What's so scary about changing the owner of the country? So what if there are no descendants? There are thousands of capable people in the world, and those in high positions are It is only fair to live in one's home, and to inherit by blood? It is also retribution for one's descendants to have bad upbringing and lose one's incense and lose one's family."

Her thoughts completely escaped the world. Even the great witch Zhiyan couldn't understand them. After being speechless for a while, she could only say: "No wonder the family business is not passed down to daughters."

"Sir, instead of saying this to offend me, it's better to feel sorry that so many men haven't snatched me away." Song Yuan leaned back in his chair: "Don't do anything in Jingzhao. I'll find a way to send them back in a few days." Besides, I will give you a list, and you can just eliminate them one by one, do it cleanly, and let me see how you southern Xinjiang wizards kill without blood."

The great witch Zhiyan inexplicably liked her calmness and ruthlessness: "Don't worry, Lord Jiu, things will be settled."

"If it's done, it must be done cleanly." Song Yuan emphasized: "Tingwei's Mansion is not for idlers. Including the things you did before, you'd better wipe your tail clean. If Huo Ying gets the handle, Gu Ke I can’t protect you.”

The great witch Zhiyan laughed: "What Master Jiu said is really sad. Where are the allies we promised?"

When Song Yuan didn't answer, the great witch Zhiyan immediately changed his mind: "Don't worry, Master Jiu, Huo Ying can't find any real evidence. Even if he has, he won't tell it."

He actually tried to tease Huo Ying. Song Yuan felt that he was overestimating his abilities, but she did not dissuade him and let the great witch Zhiyan make his own decision.

It's just that this thought fluctuated slightly, and it was noticed immediately. The great witch Zhiyan suddenly became excited, but when he spoke, he was very dissatisfied: "Master Jiu actually thinks that I can't play with Huo Ying. There is nothing more sad than this in the world." ”

"Who is better, sir or Huo Ying? Gu is also very curious." Song Yuan quickly restrained all his emotions and no longer gave the great witch Zhiyan a chance to explore his mind. He was as cold as a stone: "Sir, you might as well let Gu Kai Open your eyes.”

The great witch Zhiyan became proud: "I will definitely not let Master Jiu down."

He left with satisfaction, and Song Yuan was thoughtful. He spent the whole night bored in the study. When it was getting dark, the officials of the East Palace began to sort the memorials sent from various places into categories and send them to the desk of the study. Song Yuan cheered up and started. After looking at it all morning, I found more than a dozen memorials asking Toru to find out the cause of Prince Kyou's death.

Obviously, this was pressure from the royal family. If she didn't respond, then the matter of finding out about Prince Gong's death would not just remain in the memorial.

"Passing Huo Ying." Song Yuan picked out all the memorials.

Huo Ying, the court lieutenant, is a golden sign. It is best used to prove innocence. It would be a waste not to use it at this time.

Soon, Huo Ying arrived. Tingwei's Mansion had taken on several major cases in recent months. Huo Ying was very busy. Calculating carefully, the two of them had not been alone for a long time.

When he entered the door, he saw that Song Yuan was about to be buried under a memorial. He paused before greeting him: "I see His Highness the Crown Prince."

"Master Huo, please sit down." Song Yuan was very polite. He stopped writing and took the memorial he picked up and sat down next to Huo Ying: "These memorials were all delivered to Gu's desk today. Gu had already thought about this. It's very clear, but there are always people who don't believe it. In order to avoid other troubles, I can only ask Mr. Huo to intervene." Huo Ying looked at the memorial and looked at her seriously: "To be honest, Your Highness, I also intend to investigate this matter. , even if His Highness does not agree, I will investigate it privately."

"Are you planning to investigate or are you already investigating?" Song Yuan asked openly.

Huo Ying felt ashamed for a moment: "We are already checking."

"Then you have committed a big taboo. If I blame you for this, it will be difficult for you to sit in the position of court captain." Song Yuan deliberately teased him, and did not forget to smile to show that he had no hostility.

Huo Ying was silent for a moment: "I don't want to deceive His Highness."

"Master Huo is so frank and loyal." Song Yuan walked to the case and said, "Let's go and investigate. No matter what is found, we will publish it. Your reputation as a court lieutenant is still very high. If you find out as soon as possible, you can help." Just stabilize the situation."

Huo Ying stood up: "I must do my best, but there is one thing I have to say. The emperor is seriously ill and His Highness is newly appointed. At this time, if you stop taking care of important things as the crown prince, you are probably making wedding clothes for others. "

"My eldest brother died of illness, my father fell ill, and the royal family is keeping a close eye on Gu. If something big happens again at this time, Gu may not be able to maintain the overall situation." Song Yuan didn't mind showing weakness.

Huo Ying didn't say anything. He naturally knew that the situation Song Yuan was facing was not optimistic. If the royal family's suspicions could not be eliminated, there would be endless troubles. However, based on his understanding of Song Yuan, her delay in finding out about Prince Gong's death must be the result. Knowing the whole story, she would not let the investigation go as a last resort.

"I have something to ask His Highness first." Huo Ying walked to her side and asked, "Does Your Highness have a clear conscience regarding the death of Prince Ming Gong?"

These words made Song Yuan's heart tremble. He looked at him for a while and then said: "Gu dare to swear to God that the death of Prince Ming Gong has nothing to do with Gu. If Mr. Huo doesn't believe it, he can do his best to investigate. If he can find any evidence, , proves that Gu is lying, Gu must suffer.”

"Your Highness." Huo Ying immediately interrupted her: "There is no need for this."

He had seen too many things that turned out to be prophecies, and he really didn't want Song Yuan to violate this taboo.

Song Yuan shut his mouth and stopped talking. He picked up the memorial on the table in despair and whispered: "Huo Ying, please."

A few simple words are worth a thousand pounds. Huo Ying was extremely cautious when he responded and immediately went to investigate carefully.

When the junior official who had been following him for many years learned that he had taken over the case, he followed him all the way and asked, "Do you really believe that His Highness the Crown Prince is innocent?"

"Why don't you believe it?" Huo Ying asked subconsciously, completely unaware that he had already preconceived the idea that Song Yuan was innocent.

The clerk said: "The succession of His Highness the Crown Prince went very smoothly."

"The succession of the crown prince went smoothly, and that was because Prince Ming Gong paved the way." Huo Ying's defense was almost subconscious.

The clerk was stunned and reminded: "Sir, do you want to investigate this case yourself?"
