The First Traitor [Rebirth]

Chapter 31 2 defeat

Yuan actually pointed to his eyes and said: "Observation. Just when the eldest brother threw the prince down and protected the prince, I found that the assassin stabbed at the prince. According to the position of the dagger, he should have stabbed the prince." neck, but it suddenly turned into falling to the elder brother's shoulders, it can be seen that he is using mistakes to cover up the fact that he does not want to hurt the prince."

When Yuan Ye was stunned, he felt a slight chill down his spine. He was sincerely glad that Yuan was his child, and he was always thinking of Yuan's family, otherwise, as an opponent, Yuan would be too terrifying.

At the critical moment when his life was threatened, even he was frightened, but Yuan was able to observe everything so calmly.Does it mean that she has seen the reactions of the people present at that time?He could even suspect that what Yuan Jing's eyes observed was not only this point, maybe she could have predicted this when she was called over by the prince?

Yuan actually didn't know what Yuan Ye was thinking, she smiled in her heart, how did she understand?Because the prince would have such a move, she expected it!King Qi thought that Yuan Ye knew his plan and blocked his plan, so he gave up.But he still forgot to replace the commander, and gave the prince an opportunity.

When Yuan was following behind the prince, he had been paying attention to the surrounding situation.The accompanying officials thought that Fengtian Pavilion was very safe, so they didn't pay attention, but she still found that some of the passing servants had blue lips, indicating that it was not the servants.

So when the waiters came up with snacks, she was already on guard, otherwise what would she do to push Yuan Li down?Naturally, it is to keep the two powers of the prince and King Qi in balance, and at the same time protect the original family well.

"Then if the commander's matter is subjugated, King Qi..." Yuan Ye still hesitated, after all, he still has a handle in the hands of King Qi, and he has been allied for many years, so it is really impossible for him to stand by and watch.

"Father, the assassin came in as a servant, and I have reason to believe that the assassin is a member of the Imperial Forest Army. I just need to check whether the number of the Imperial Forest Army has changed." After Yuan actually finished speaking, there was another pause, "However, the prince is very smart. He controls the military department. He can completely manipulate it, so that people can't find out whether there are fewer people in the Imperial Forest Army."

"..." Yuan Ye was silent.

"However, the servant was brought by the prince. Father can sell King Qi as a favor and let him seize the fact that the servant was brought by the prince to fight back."

"Didn't Jing'er want Dad to sever ties with King Qi? Why do you want to help King Qi?"

Yuan actually shook his head: "Father, if King Qi falls, our Yuan family will be the next one to have trouble. So we can't let King Qi fall, but we can't do anything to support King Qi anymore. And this The matter will not become a big deal, the emperor is still not confused!"

After analyzing with Yuan Jing like this, Yuan Ye felt relieved a lot, and he felt that Yuan Jing was smart enough to see things clearly.From before the construction of Fengtian Pavilion to now, he has helped him a lot and given him a lot of ideas. I only have some regrets in my heart: If it is a man, it would be great!

When Yuan Jing went back to Jingxin Garden, he passed by Xiuwei Garden, Yuan Lu came out of it, saw Yuan Jing, and snorted coldly.Also serving by the prince's side, why is her son injured and disabled, while Yuan is safe and sound?It's not fair!

Yuan Mixue stood behind Yuan Lushi, greeted Yuan Jing, and knew that her mother was dissatisfied with her second brother, so she didn't dare to stay and talk to her.

After their mother and daughter left, Nan Lian came out of Xiuwei Garden and stuffed a purse into Yuan Jing's lapel.Yuan actually quickly looked around and found that there was no one, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sister-in-law, in broad daylight, you are not afraid of being seen?" Yuan Jing said.

"Whoever sees it will goug out his eyes, whoever hears something, I will cut off his ear, and if anyone dares to say anything, I will cut off his tongue." Nan Lian said with a smile that made the timid people tremble.

Yuan took out his purse and asked, "What is this?"

"Amulet to ask for."

"amulet?"

"Fortunately, you're fine this time..." Nan Lian's tone was a bit heavy, as if she was carrying a lot of worries.

"Oh, so it doesn't matter if my elder brother has an accident?" Yuan Jing twitched his lips.

"Wear it like this sachet, don't lose it." After Nan Lian said domineeringly, she went back to Xiuwei Garden.

"..."

When I heard that the crown prince was assassinated and Yuan Li came back with injuries, the entire Yuan Mansion was terrified.Although Pingyao hated Yuan's family, he was also worried that something would happen to Yuan. When he saw that she was safe and sound, he hurriedly asked what happened.

When Yuan actually told her, she was a little happy to think that if Yuan Ye was convicted because of this, that would be a great thing!It's just that she doesn't understand court affairs, so she can only pretend to ask worriedly: "Then father..." Pingyao is not happy to call the enemy "father".

Yuan actually touched his chin and said: "Who knows what the emperor is thinking! But elder brother saved the prince, there must be a lot of rewards."

Pingyao felt a little regretful, but he didn't ask further.

On the eighth day after the prince was assassinated, King Qi made some progress under Yuan Ye's reminder, but he also knew that the prince hadn't attacked him yet, if he jumped out, it would mean that there would be no silver 300 taels here.

And the prince also knew that King Qi was holding on to the issue of the servants, and that someone was investigating the situation of the Yulin Army, so he knew that King Qi must have done it.He didn't know what information the king of Qi had. If he rashly involved the matter of the king of Qi and the commander, then the king of Qi would undoubtedly fight back.

With such a treacherous atmosphere, the two parties that attacked each other at the beginning also began to die down slowly, and only some censors were still impeaching Yuan Ye.However, no matter how much they impeached, the emperor remained indifferent, because he knew very well that Yuan Ye was working for him, and that was the reason why he would be attacked.

Not long after, a decree came from the palace, to the effect that the commander failed to find out that an assassin had infiltrated Fengtian Pavilion, and for the crime of dereliction of duty and oversight, he was demoted to the commander of the Beicheng Military and Horse Command Division, with an official position of sixth rank.And Qianhu, who led the thousand-man guards of the Imperial Forest Army, was stripped of his identity and sent back to his hometown because he could not find out that the assassin had mixed into the ranks of servants, which was also a crime of dereliction of duty.

One was demoted two ranks in a row, and the other was dismissed altogether. In comparison, the loss of the crown prince was a bit heavier.However, the emperor did not order a detailed investigation, and he was a little lucky.

Everyone found that the two people who were punished were negligent in their duties and had nothing to do with the assassin, so who among these people were the assassin's internal agents?Is the next person to be punished the assassin?

It's just that Yuan Ye's relegation to the official position that everyone was expecting did not happen. The emperor was very moved by Yuan Li's desperate efforts to protect the prince and his disability, and not only rewarded him with a lot of money.Princess Cheng Ya was also interceding, so the emperor made an exception and asked Yuan Li to come out of the Guoxue School of the Imperial College in advance and let him serve as the governor of the Chinese Army.

Although the Chinese Military Governor's Mansion is a government office belonging to military officials, the post of governor is a civil servant, from the seventh rank.It is also a good thing for Yuan Li, after all, his right hand is useless, so naturally he cannot practice martial arts.

The second son, Yuan Jing, was able to remain calm even in the chaos, fighting the assassins and protecting the prince, which is also indispensable.Considering that she still had to take part in the general examination, he did not arrange an official position for her for the time being, but only rewarded her with money.

After the imperial decree, all the smart people saw what the emperor meant. Not only did he want to tell the world that Yuan Ye's son was so desperate, he believed that Yuan Ye had nothing to do with the assassin.He also wanted to tell the prince, King Qi, and others who kept making small moves that Yuan Ye was serving the "court" wholeheartedly, not any of them. If they dared to move Yuan Ye, they would be against the "court".

Both the crown prince and the king of Qi were disheartened. The "court" was the court of the emperor alone. If he said that Yuan Ye was right, then he was right. No matter how much evidence they looked for, it would be useless.At the same time, they clearly realized how partial the emperor would be when he favored one person.

The incident of the crown prince's assassination, which had been making such a fuss, just passed away quietly.

In the morning, before dawn, a group of officials in court uniforms appeared at the gate of the hall one after another. They greeted each other, and what they said in their mouths were nothing more than topics of "cold spring".

When Yuan Ye appeared, their topic stopped suddenly, and then these people greeted Yuan Ye more or less, some bento who were unwilling to please didn't see it, and walked ahead.

Yuan Ye responded to his colleagues refreshedly, and enthusiastically greeted the officials who wanted to ignore him.When he received the imperial decree, he was relieved and at the same time happy for his two children.

The crown prince suddenly appeared within Yuan Ye's line of sight, and Yuan Ye went over to salute respectfully.The prince chatted with him for a while, and expressed his gratitude to Yuan Li and Yuan Jing for their life-saving grace, which confused the officials behind the prince.

Now being beaten by the emperor, the prince's attitude towards Yuan Ye is not the same as before, a little ambiguous.He wanted to win over Yuan Ye, but he was worried that the emperor would be displeased by it, so he could only keep a certain distance from Yuan Ye, but he would not hate him as much as before.

The prince had a faint pressure on Yuan Ye, he always felt that there was a pair of invisible hands controlling everything behind his back.When he heard Qian Renyong talk about Yuan Ye's actions in the Ministry of Industry, he excitedly asked people to find out what happened. There is nothing more exciting than being able to catch Yuan Ye's handle.

After searching for a long time, he finally learned that there was a problem with the artisan households in Fengtian Pavilion, but those fake artisan households disappeared inexplicably.Later, King Qi's long history went to see Yuan Ye for the first time, and he knew that the two were going to break up!

The prince Xima beside him analyzed it with him. Perhaps King Qi knew that he was going to Fengtian Pavilion to monitor, so he deliberately designed to frame him.But Yuan Ye found out about this, but he was unwilling to take risks with King Qi, so he had a quarrel with King Qi.

While the prince broke out in a cold sweat, he also listened to everyone's opinions and decided to fight back.On the one hand, he found out that Fengtian Pavilion had not been tampered with, so he dared to go to Fengtian Pavilion; on the other hand, he planned the assassination. Before that, he tried to win over Yuan Ye, but Yuan Ye didn't show, so he went With a little bad intentions, he wanted to drag Yuan Ye into the water.

But the development of the matter was beyond his expectation. First, Yuan Ye did not turn around in a hurry after the incident, nor did he intend to ask him for help; second, King Qi suddenly insisted that it was his servant There is a problem, and someone from the Royal Forest Army is quietly investigating.

The most important thing is that the emperor didn't know the anger of the prince after being assassinated, nor did he ask for a thorough investigation, but just comforted and sympathized with him a few words, and his sharp eyes seemed to see through their little tricks!
