Chapter 103 Isn't this a coincidence?
The prince didn't care about the marks on his face that others saw, but when he set off for the palace, he still thought of a way to cover up the marks, so as not to give others a chance to criticize the princess.

Xie Xi was thrown into the dungeon yesterday, and the prince entered the palace today.

I thought it was the Xie family who put pressure on Emperor Xuan to question the prince, but when I entered the palace, I saw many people standing in the imperial study.

All the five elders of the pavilion are here, and the three ministers from the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Household are listed.

When the crown prince stepped in, the seven princes were also present.

Obviously this is not for the Xie family's business, and there is no need to be so grand to ask the crown prince.

As soon as the prince came, the second prince couldn't help stabbing him: "After waiting for half a day, it can be regarded as waiting for the prince."

The third prince coughed twice and answered in a distracted manner: "Fifth brother is the crown prince, so he is more noble than you and me, so we should wait."

These words sounded reasonable at first glance, but in fact they were supporting the second prince in a strange way.

The second prince nodded with a smile on his face: "The third brother is right, His Royal Highness is indeed qualified."

"Oh, look at how impatient I am. The fifth brother doesn't want to talk to the second brother. He must be in a hurry to see Mr. Xie Ge. Sorry, the second brother is in the way."

After speaking, he moved out of the way, for fear that the crown prince would not be able to find Xie Shoufu.

The crown prince gave him a contemptuous look: "It's okay, the second brother is inconvenient, so I won't bother with you."

The second prince's expression was instantly gloomy and ferocious. His leg disease was a pain in his life, especially when facing the prince, the chief culprit, he wished he could eat his flesh alive.

The third prince hastily pulled him back: "Second brother."

The second prince endured it for a long time: "You wait."

The prince gave him a contemptuous look, trash!
"Prince." A majestic and deep voice sounded. Opposite him was a deep purple super first-rank official uniform, Tianzhu, tourmaline, and auspicious beast crane.

The chief minister of the cabinet, who is also the emperor's father-in-law and teacher, is exempted from kneeling above the golden hall, but below the golden hall, the emperor still has to perform student rituals.

Such a highly respected status gave the chief assistant Xie Shan an aura of authority as a civil servant, and his aura rolled towards the prince like a wave.

It's a pity that his momentum is useless to the prince.

The prince is young, but not cowardly.

Compared with them who only instigated others to play tricks, he did not know how much blood was stained on his hands.

The bloody aura is like a sky-splitting demon sword, unstoppable.

The confrontation between the prince and Xie Shan was definitely something that everyone at the scene liked to see. The more they broke up, the better it would be for other talents. If the Xie family and the prince were of one mind, it would definitely be a disaster for other families.

The second prince and the third prince looked at each other, full of gloating that could not be concealed.

Chu Yunjiang was crowned prince at the age of one, isn't it just because his mother is from Xie's family?

The crown prince they were trying to get was something he was born with.

They are all the princes of the Tian family, why should they be inferior?
Let's make a fuss, tear yourself apart with the Xie family, it's better if you don't die, and when you completely offend the Xie family, that's when he rolls down from the crown prince.

Xie Shan was dissatisfied with the prince and wanted to educate him, but the prince was not oppressed by him, so he couldn't stand for a while.

"Cough cough cough..."

Emperor Xuan came late, and coughed as soon as he came in. Just now the eunuch said that Emperor Xuan was taking medicine, but it is not known whether he was delayed because of taking medicine or deliberately late.

"The ministers and others see the Holy One."

Emperor Xuan waved his hand: "Forget it."

With an ugly face, he handed a letter to the eunuch next to him.

"You all have a look."

The letter fell into Xie Shan's hands first, after he opened it and read it, his complexion was not good, and then everyone circulated it one by one.

"It's unreasonable, 300 million military pay disappeared, and the governor of Nanzhou was killed for half a month before he was discovered. Is there any law?"

The second prince was the first to stand out, filled with righteous indignation, and said righteously: "Father, this matter must not be tolerated, and must be severely punished."

Shoot the first bird, and the first one to die when something happens is an idiot like the second prince Chu Hehan.

The eldest prince Chu Yulin said calmly: "Father, is this news true? It's been half a month since this happened, why is there no news at all?"

The third prince Chu Yanqi also nodded: "The military salary should be fully distributed in mid-September, why is there still a huge military salary of 300 million taels? The Nanzhou garrison only has a total of 20, how can it be possible to use so much?"

The eldest prince has been on duty in the Ministry of Households for more than five years, and the third prince also went to the Ministry of War the year before last, so they dared to speak.

The information in the letter was very detailed, from how the rotting body of Nanzhou governor Li Lin was found, to confirming his identity, and then discovering that he had lost his military pay, etc. The words were concise, but the content was very clear.

Emperor Xuan glanced at the crowd: "The news is true, and the King of Nanzhou County also sent the news back. Now the King of Nanzhou County and the supervisory censor over there are temporarily controlling the overall situation."

"I have already sent Wang Xuan to go there, but the loss of military pay and the unknown death of the first-rank official in the frontier will surely shake the morale of the army. Therefore, I want to send a prince to visit on my behalf to show the emperor's favor. What do you think?"

Patrolling on behalf of the Son of Heaven sounds very imposing, but now that the situation is unclear, it is simply not something ordinary people can do if they dare to kill the governor and steal so much money.

This is going, not to mention the thankless work, maybe it may even cost my life.

But anyone with a little brain will not do it.

Even though Chu Hehan is stupid, he knows that his life is important.

The princes were silent, but Xie Shan spoke, and there was a thunder on the ground when he opened his mouth: "On behalf of the emperor to inspect, no one is more suitable than the prince. The prince is not young, and he should share the worries and problems for the saint. Moreover, the prince has been here for the past two years. Buddhism's self-cultivation and self-cultivation must be very soothing."

The others didn't know what they were hiding, but no one spoke against Xie Shan.

"My minister agrees."

"My minister agrees."

Xie Shan was right, and they had no reason not to agree.

Xie Shan obviously wanted to create a problem for the prince, but they also wanted to protect the prince they followed. Isn't this just a coincidence.

Moreover, it is thousands of miles away from Nanzhou, if the crown prince loses his life on the way, then...it would be really a 'regret (wish)'...

The crown prince went on a tour, and the votes passed unanimously, and then Emperor Xuan and the Ministry of Household and Military Department discussed the matter of military pay, which should be thoroughly investigated and deleted.

After all, the emperor's money did not come from the wind.

A group of princes left the imperial study room first, and the second prince smiled brightly: "Congratulations to the prince for being reused by the emperor, as a brother, I wish you success and a smooth journey."

Fart, it's gone and never returned, it's best to leave no bones.

The third prince followed up with a smile: "Then I wish the fifth brother all the best, and when I come back, the third brother treats you to a drink."

I will personally pour it on the grave for you.

These two people said good things, but the killing intent should not be too obvious.

"Fifth brother." The seventh prince grabbed the prince's sleeve, with a worried expression on his face, hesitant to speak.

"Okay." Seeing that the smell of gunpowder was getting stronger, the eldest prince stood up: "Since Father has appointed the crown prince, where should the others go, Yun Jiang, come with me."

Given the age of the eldest prince, he is still a bit majestic as a big brother.
