Prince Han Sien

When the emperor summoned Han Si'en, he thought he had found out about the real and fake second prince, or his illegitimate son.

In fact, from the bottom of the emperor's heart, he is so old, and his son made such a scene, which also involves his other son and a courtier who is still well-received. His attitude towards this matter Very difficult to measure.

There was a look of wanting to know the truth, but also a little unwilling to know. The emperor always felt that this matter would be an unmanageable situation in the end, so he was very contradictory.But in the end reason prevailed over everything, he felt that no matter what the truth was, he, as an emperor, must know, so when Han Sien asked to see him, he announced it.

When Han Sien visited the emperor, he was slightly surprised when he saw that the emperor was serving An Qi instead of Yuan Bao, but his expression did not change at all.

On the other hand, An Qijing was standing there quietly, but when she looked at Han Sien's arrival, her eyes lightened up instantly, with curiosity and scrutiny. His body is like a ray of light, which is extraordinarily eye-catching.

The emperor noticed An Qi's strangeness, frowned slightly, looked at Han Sien with a gloomy look, and said, "What? The matter has been clarified?" Han Sien turned over the mansions of Ji Rong and Ji Luo. Well, he had already heard the news.

However, according to Gao Feng's report, although the two princes' mansions had some minor flaws, they were relatively clean, but they didn't know what Han Sien had found.

Han Si'en was a little speechless after being glanced at by the emperor. He felt quite innocent in his heart. This An Qi obviously listened to the Queen Mother and wanted to trouble him.It's just that the emperor didn't have mind reading skills, so he couldn't hear the tricks people around him used against him.

It's just that Han Si'en had already forgiven the Queen Mother at this time, and after today, there was a blatant enmity between the Queen Mother and him.So the queen mother wants to find trouble with him to divert everyone's attention, so let's do it.No matter what move he made, he just followed it.

Han Sien thought so impolitely in his heart, and responded to the emperor's words with a very respectful face, he said: "Your Majesty, I was originally ordered to investigate the affairs between the second prince, the third prince and Mr. Bai, but during the investigation process , Weichen found clues to the Jiangnan gold mine case."

As soon as the emperor heard the clues of the Jiangnan gold mine case, he immediately put away his thoughts and forgot about Ji Rong and Ji Luo. He straightened up unconsciously, and said in a dignified tone, "What did you find out?"

Han Si'en glanced at An Qi who lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, showing that he didn't trust her, but he still said everything he knew, and said: "Back to the emperor, my humble minister has been making people feel uncomfortable these days." Staring at all the gambling houses in the capital to investigate the source of gold. A few days ago, when Wei Chen was investigating the news of the Bai family, he got the news that someone used gold in the gambling house, and the person who used the gold was an ordinary person. After careful investigation by Wei Chen , and found that the gold flowed out from the hand of a concubine of the Shi family."

"The Shi family?" The emperor was startled, and suddenly remembered that when Han Sien's reputation first hit the capital, he raided the house of Li Zhong, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials. Ten thousand taels of silver, and a few letters from the Li family.

Although the letter is vague, the words in it are obviously related to a certain prince in the court.

And Li Yu, the son of Li Zhong, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, got married with Shi Rui from the Shi family.Later, everyone in the Li family, including Shi Rui, was exiled by him.

At that time, the emperor also suspected that the Shi family and the Li family were in collusion, and wanted to support which prince secretly.However, the Shi family behaved very frankly, and they investigated secretly for a long time. Apart from finding out that the Shi family valued Li Yu too much because of the litmus, and had cleaned up several messes for Li Yu, other matters related to the court, the two families did not agree. No deep contact.

After the emperor got the news, although he was not completely relieved of the Shi family, he let him go first.

Now when he suddenly heard that the private gold mining was related to the Shi family, the emperor was shocked.

The Li family, the Shi family, the letter, the prince, and the gold mine, these things don't seem to have much to do with each other, but it's always shocking to connect them together.

It's just that I didn't find a trace of contact between them. Does that mean that a bigger hand helped them cover it up?Thinking of this, the emperor couldn't help thinking of his mother, the empress dowager who once covered the sky with one hand.

He once said that the emperor was very afraid of the queen mother when he was a child. After he became the emperor, he felt that the queen mother had too much power, and he was shackled everywhere. The queen mother was afraid, so she began to show resistance to her.

At that time, if the Queen Mother hadn't taken the initiative to take a step back and give up all the rights in her hands, the mother and son might have lost both because of this, and they would have liked the others for nothing.

Now judging from the affairs of the Shi family, maybe the queen mother still plays an important role in it.

From the empress dowager, the emperor thought of the noble concubine in the palace.The imperial concubine came from the Shi family, and was chosen by the queen mother to enter the palace. The queen mother wanted the next emperor to flow with the blood of the Shi family, with the intention of stabilizing the prosperity of the Shi family for generations.

But the emperor was not happy. The emperor wanted to make himself and Wang Ying's children the next emperor. Because the queen mother was too powerful, the Shi family didn't want them to be too inflated.

So Concubine Shi Gui has been in the palace for so many years and has never had a child.Later, Concubine Shi Gui probably understood the emperor's thoughts herself, so she stopped thinking about having her own children until Ji Rong was born.

After Ji Rong's mother had dystocia, Concubine Shi Gui proposed to adopt Ji Rong.Because Ji Rong stayed in the mother's womb for a long time, she was very weak when she was born, and the imperial doctor worked hard to keep her.

At that time, Concubine Shi Gui knelt on the ground, saying that because of her own body, she would not be able to have children for life, and begged the emperor to keep the prince by her side to raise him.

The emperor's heart softened so much at that time, and the queen mother seldom showed weakness, so he put Ji Rong under the name of Concubine Shi Gui.Fortunately, Ji Rong, under the name of Concubine Shi Gui, has always been physically weak. She has been obsessed with poetry and songs since she was a child, and has no covetous heart for the throne.

The emperor also had two points of pity for him.

Of course, the emperor had doubts about Concubine Shi Gui's intention to adopt Ji Rong.He also secretly guarded against Concubine Shi Gui.Therefore, he knows better than anyone else the imperial doctor in the palace's diagnosis and treatment of Ji Rong's health. Up to now, Ji Rong's physical condition will still be presented to him on time every month.

It's true that Ji Rong is not in good health, but what if there are other articles in it?

The more the emperor thought about these things, the more uncertain he became.Because of Shi Lei's life-saving grace back then, he always felt in his heart that he owed his family, so even though there was a gap between him and the Queen Mother, he was very tolerant to her family.The most important thing is that the Shi family was very careful and did not cause any anger or grievances. The court has also kept a low profile these years. The emperor has never grasped any clues.

But now it seems that in the eyes of the Shi family, his nephew emperor is not as valuable as the empress dowager in the harem.

Thinking of this, the emperor snorted coldly, and said, "Han Si'en, this matter involves a lot of light, and it's no more child's play than you used to. If you frame up at will without evidence, I will not forgive you."

"Returning to the emperor, in order to avoid scaring the snake, except for the concubine of the Shi family, I have already controlled everyone who has anything to do with gold. As I said earlier, the private gold mining was revealed too quickly. The gold must still be in the capital. And those assassins are also related to the gold mines. Maybe someone is using gold to raise soldiers. I feel that we should strengthen the patrols in the palace and transfer the Habayashi army outside the city into the city to avoid disasters. At the same time, we must control the Shi family so as not to leak rumors that should not be leaked."

In fact, Han Sien knew that in this life, the Empress Dowager was cut off by himself because of the fact that he raided countless officials in the south of the Yangtze River, which hurt his vitality. In addition, the days of mining gold mines were too short.Unlike her previous life, when she silently mined the gold mine to the bottom, now she doesn't have much gold to use, so it's an exaggeration to say that gold is used to raise soldiers.

The most important thing is that since he imprisoned Ji Rong, Ji Luo and Bai En, the queen mother has been very passive in the palace. Even if she has countless soldiers, she would not dare to act rashly without knowing her name.

He has already reminded the emperor that the emperor has doubts in his heart, so he will naturally increase the supervision of the empress dowager.Now as long as the Shi family, the deepest minion hidden by the queen mother, is cut down, the queen mother will not dare to move around.

It's just that it's inconvenient for him to say this clearly, so he has to use gold to raise soldiers to explain the matter.After all, the emperor is always the emperor, so it doesn't make sense to like to have a team of assassins that he can't see, thinking about the position under his butt all the time.

The emperor really did what Han Sien thought, his face was livid, he snorted coldly, threw a token to Han Sien, gritted his teeth and said: "You are right, private mining of gold mines is a heinous crime, since this matter is related to the Shi family , then let’s take care of the Shi family first.”

The emperor didn't say that he would put everyone in the Shi family in prison. In some respects, although the emperor seemed to have made the court his own, he still maintained his indecision when he was young.

The emperor himself may know many things, but without substantive evidence, he can't let go of his hands and feet to put people in prison. The emperor always thinks about his name in the history books, and he is a wise king rather than a tyrant.

But when he reached middle age, he wanted to implement some of the ideas in his heart.Therefore, Han Si'en's appearance was just right, he was hostile, murderous and not afraid of death, and he had a handle to discord with his family, making him the most upright and perfect sword in front of the emperor.

Han Si'en didn't have much hope for the emperor, so he wasn't too disappointed.So he got up and left at the emperor's request.

The emperor waved him off wearily, and Han Sien turned and left.When walking out of the palace gate, Han Si'en felt that the emperor's greatest luck was probably because he met himself who could not die.

Otherwise, who would know who would sit on the throne in the future Great Zhou Dynasty after the death of the emperor.

Taking the token given by the emperor, Han Sien quickly summoned a group of guards from the imperial city and surrounded the Shi family.But this time, Han Si'en didn't enter Shi's house to show off his might, but after ordering the imperial guards to take care of him, he went back to the Duke's mansion to share the news with the three guests inside.

When Han Sien returned to the Duke's Mansion, he hadn't changed his clothes to visit the three of them. Gao Feng came to see him with a bitter face, saying that it was the Second Prince, the Third Prince and Bai En. The queen of the palace, because of a steamed bun, suddenly became irritable, and the three fought with each other.

"Who was injured?" Han Sien asked expressionlessly.

Gao Fengku laughed and said, "I've got some injuries on my face." He didn't expect that the second prince, who seemed frail, could put his face down and pull someone's hair with his hands after being kicked.

"Have you asked the doctor to come over and show them?" Han Sien said calmly, the three of them were very aggrieved, and their hearts were very angry. He thought they would fight on the first day, but he didn't expect to fight today.

After this happened, Han Si'en was too lazy to see the three of them, so he dismissed Gao Feng and went back to his room to rest.

He just closed his eyes in the room, feeling a little cold, opened his eyes, and saw Bai Shu standing by the window.
