Changning Palace.

In the dormitory, Xiao Ji was solemnly looking through the report sent to the palace by Qilin Guard Commander Zhang Chu himself, with a thoughtful look on his face.

Zhang Chu knelt on the ground with his back straight, as long as the emperor didn't ask him, he would never make a sound.

After a long time, Xiao Ji finally put down the report in his hand, and asked slowly, "How did the other ministers react to Wang Wei's arrest?"

Zhang Chu was able to stand in this high-risk position as the commander of the Qilin Guard, of course, not only because of his absolute loyalty to the emperor, but also because of his ability to observe words and emotions. Long before he entered the palace to deliver the report, he predicted in advance The emperor will ask him something else.

Therefore, in the face of the emperor's questioning, Zhang Chu did not show a trace of panic, and replied in a deep voice: "Reporting to the emperor, many ministers did not believe that Wang Wei would do such a thing, and they wrote to His Highness Wu Wang one after another. I beg for mercy, and hope that Sili Xiaowei's Mansion can release Wang Wei."

Xiao Jie couldn't help but shook his head with a smile when he heard the words: "Ju'er and Jue'er are really poking a hornet's nest. There are so many people in the Wang family and they can't deal with anyone well. They have to provoke Wang Wei."

Even though he said so, the smile on Xiao Ji's face didn't seem to blame at all.

Then, Xiao Ji continued to ask: "What does the capital think of the auspicious incident of the prince?"

Zhang Chu was also prepared for this, and replied calmly: "Although most people don't believe that this matter will be done by Wang Wei, everyone believes that this matter has something to do with the Wang family, and the purpose is to frame His Royal Highness. , thus preventing His Royal Highness the Crown Prince from having the opportunity to become emperor, and some people even suspected that the poisoning of the emperor was also done by the Wang family..."

Xiao Ji couldn't help but nodded slightly, his son was indeed a good means, although on the surface it was only aimed at Wang Wei, but in fact it was directed at the Wang family.

Although everyone knew that with Wang Wei's reputation and identity, it would be impossible to do such dirty things in person, but now all the evidence points to Wang Wei, which makes people have to suspect the Wang family behind Wang Wei.

In this way, Xiao Jie's grievances will naturally be washed away.

It’s just that there is still one thing that Xiao Ji doesn’t understand. Although he knows that Qin Zhuan is a good breakthrough, the Langya Wang family has a profound education, and Wang Wei is not the only one who is proficient in Qin Zhuan, but why does his son insist on picking one? What kind of Wang Wei will he be operated on?

……

Xiao Jue also had the same confusion in her heart.

Ever since he personally led the Zhongdu officials and apprentices to take Wang Wei away from the Wangfu, Sili Xiaowei's mansion and his Wu Wangfu have been broken through by countless people who come to intercede, and everyone is willing to sacrifice their lives and reputations for Wang Wei. Wei made a guarantee that what happened to Ruizhao would never be done by Wang Wei, and asked him to release Wang Wei as soon as possible.

There are also many scholars who besieged the gates of Sili Xiaowei's Mansion and Wu Wang's Mansion every day, or stopped his car halfway, just to put pressure on him and force him to release Wang Wei.

In desperation, Xiao Jue could only hide in the East Palace every day, just wanting to have clean ears.

He also couldn't help asking Xiao Jie the doubts in his heart. He really didn't understand why Xiao Jie insisted on attacking the respected Wang Wei. With Wang Wei's reputation in the hearts of the world, even if all the evidence points to him now , They can't do anything to Wang Wei.

Faced with Xiao Jue's confusion, Xiao Jie did not answer right away, but asked with a smile: "Let me ask you, if I don't clarify the rumors, everyone in the world will think that I sent someone to poison the emperor, and I found someone to forge auspicious omens." Zhi Zhao intends to usurp the throne, so will I lose the crown prince and completely cut off the possibility of becoming emperor?"

Xiao Jue couldn't help being slightly taken aback, then shook his head and said: "Unless the emperor wakes up and personally decrees to abolish you as the crown prince, Brother Seven, no one in the world will be able to shake your position as the crown prince."

Xiao Jie couldn't help but smiled playfully: "Then have you ever thought, since no one but the father can touch my crown prince, why the third brother and the Wang family have to take so much pains to tarnish my reputation and image."

Xiao Jue couldn't help being stunned again, because all along he was thinking about how to catch the mastermind who framed Seventh Brother, so as to help Xiao Jie clean up his grievances. He really didn't think about the deep meaning of the other party's doing so.

"According to Brother Seven, they framed Brother Seven with other motives?" Now, Xiao Jue also faintly felt that the other party's real purpose of framing Xiao Jie was not simple.

At this time, Xiao Jie gazed towards the northwest direction, and smiled coldly: "That's right, the reason why they tried so hard to frame me is just to make a name for themselves."

Following Xiao Jie's gaze, Xiao Jue seemed to understand something, and suddenly his face changed drastically: "Seventh brother, do you mean that the third brother wants to rebel?"

Xiao Jie nodded, then continued to sneer and said: "If my guess is correct, their original plan should be to send someone to poison the emperor, then plant it on me, and then wantonly forge auspicious omens, creating a kind of "I can't wait The illusion of wanting to ascend the throne and proclaim the emperor."

"At that time, the Three Emperor Brothers and Wang Cheng in Liangzhou will be able to justifiably raise troops and conspire against each other. On the grounds that I, Xiao Jie, killed my father and king, spread the word to the world and call on the people of the world to crusade against me. Instead, they will become justice to avenge the late emperor. teacher."

"I didn't expect Xiao Huang to be so mad. In order to fight for the throne, it's fine to collude with the royal family, but he dared to poison the emperor. He is simply inhuman!" After listening to Xiao Jie's analysis, Xiao Jue was completely angry and lost his heart. In order to show the last ounce of respect to this brother of the Three Emperors, he was so angry that he called him by his first name.

Xiao Jie couldn't laugh or cry in his heart, he remembered that in the original book Xiao Jue was Xiao Huang's number one fanboy, he obeyed Xiao Huang's words and followed Xiao Huang's lead in everything, unexpectedly he became Xiao Huang's number one black fan now.

But he himself didn't expect Xiao Huang to be so completely blackened in the end, to the point where the real six relatives don't recognize each other.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jie couldn't help laughing and said: "It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven. Now the father is only in a coma due to poisoning. If they don't keep it together, they will wake up one day. At that time, they will lose the excuse to avenge the father. Therefore, What we need to do most now is to prevent Brother Sanhuang and Wang Cheng from taking risks and raising troops in advance."

It was only then that Xiao Jue finally realized: "That's why Seventh Brother asked me to come and arrest Wang Wei, and let Wang Cheng be cautious and dare not act rashly."

"That's right!" Xiao Jie nodded, his eyes approving.

But Xiao Jue was still a little puzzled: "Then why not arrest Wang Chong directly, he is the head of the Wang family and Wang Cheng's father, if he falls into our hands, Wang Cheng will not dare to act rashly."

Xiao Jie couldn't help laughing when he heard the words: "Everyone in the world knows that Wang Chong and I have a feud against my mother, if you are asked to arrest Wang Chong, it will only make people think that I am taking the opportunity to retaliate, which will reduce the credibility of the matter. It is precisely because Wang Wei only knows how to immerse himself in learning, does not care about worldly affairs, and has no deep hatred with me, so that others can believe that we arrested Wang Wei not out of personal hatred, but only because the Wang family wanted to deal with me. Wei."

"Besides, Wang Wei is a great Confucian in the world. His importance to the Wang family is no less than that of the head of the family, Wang Chong. Now that he is suspected of framing me, it is the Wang family who is suspected of framing me. If Wang Cheng really dares to act rashly, he will be convicted of treason by the Wang family. It can justifiably uproot the entire Wang family."

"Brother Seven, you still think too far, it's because I'm superficial." Xiao Jue was convinced, nodded heavily, and then said, "In this case, no matter who he comes to intercede with Wang Wei in the future, I will turn a blind eye and turn a deaf ear. After all, this is an important bargaining chip for us to control the Wang family and Wang Cheng."

Xiao Jie smiled and said nothing, his heart trembled slightly, Wang Cheng was easy to deal with and contain, but Xiao Huang was really scary, after all with his current cruelty and denial of relatives, there was nothing he couldn't do.
