Song of Burying Snow

When Gong Hong said that, it can be said that everyone in the court was shocked. Something happened to Jitiantai, but the person in charge of the construction suddenly committed suicide at home. It can only make people think that he committed suicide in fear of crime.

"The minister of the Ministry of Industry committed suicide?" Huan Zang narrowed his eyes and said.

"Yes, when the end is near, the minister of the Ministry of Industry has been exhausted for a long time, and there is no way to recover." The imperial commander said.

"Then did he leave any last words?" Huan Zang asked.

"No, it's just that I searched the home of the Secretary of the Ministry of Industry and found some things that should not be in his mansion." After the imperial commander finished speaking, he waved to the guards behind him, and an imperial guard handed over a wooden box , Gong Hong took it and opened it, and then Xi came down by the way. As a result, he arrived in front of Huan Zang and opened the wooden box, only to see that the inside was shining with pearls, and it turned out to be a whole box of gold, silver, jewelry and silver notes.

"Where is the minister of the Ministry of Industry?" After looking at the contents of this box, Huan Zang still didn't understand why the roof of the sacrificial ceremony would collapse because the Minister of the Ministry of Industry was full of private pockets, stealing beams and replacing pillars, shoddy, and indirectly explained that he was responsible The eldest prince Huan Zhan, who supervised the construction, couldn't get rid of it, so he heard Huan Zang shouting to the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty: "Who did the minister of the Ministry of Industry have the closest contact with before?"

"My Majesty, Mr. Shang Shu doesn't have much contact with lower officials, but..." Hu Jing, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, seemed a little hesitant to tell the truth, and he seemed a little scared.

"Speak directly, if you conceal anything, you will be punished together." Huan Zang patted the dragon chair and said.

"Yes, Weichen, tell the truth!" Hu Jing seemed to be very frightened by Huan Zang. He knelt on the ground and didn't get up. The ministers and others communicate, but every time the eldest prince comes, they are very enthusiastic, and the two always find a place where there is no one to talk in secret. After seeing off the eldest prince, he would drink some wine alone, as if he encountered some difficult problems, even if I asked him, he would not say anything."

"Then has he acted unusually in the past few days?" The conversation has already turned to the eldest prince Huan Zhan, and Huan Zang just thought that it might be the Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry who acted recklessly, but now he is trying to excuse him, but he can't even deceive him In the past, you can only let things reveal the truth along the way.

"There is no unusual behavior." After thinking for a while, Hu Jing suddenly said: "However, one day the eldest prince came to find Lord Shangshu again. It happened that the humble minister also wanted to find Lord Shangshu for something. Seeing the eldest prince leave, he hurriedly I went, but when I saw Master Shang Shu, he was in a trance, and he was still chanting something 'It's over, it's over, I can't live anymore!'"

"You know what you said, but you have to take responsibility." Huan Zang stared straight at Hu Jing, so Hu Jing didn't dare to look up.

"Wei...Weichen knows, I dare not tell lies." Hu Jing fell on the ground, his body trembling a little.

"Xi Shun, draw up an order." Huan Zang leaned against the back of the dragon chair, turned his head to Xi Shun and said.

"Your Majesty, I really want to..." Xishun knew Huan Zang well, he could hear what he said just now, so he naturally knew what purpose Huan Zang wanted to draw up.

"Design!" Seeing Xishun's hesitation, Huan Zang stared and said again.

"Yes, the old slave obeys the order!" Xishun had no choice but to prepare the four treasures of the study.

"Your majesty, please think twice. The eldest prince will never do such a foolish thing. Please check with the emperor before deciding." Seeing that Huan Zang was about to issue an order to deal with Huan Zhan, the old minister who stood by Huan Zhan finally had the patience Can't stop standing up and begging for mercy.

"Eldest prince Huan Zhan, disregarding the law, corrupting the law with corruption, even dared to get greedy on the roof, shouldn't he be dealt with?" Huan Zang looked at the kneeling person below, and it was the old prime minister who said contemptuously.

"The old minister just thinks that this matter is still strange. After all, the eldest prince is the son of the empress, so he will not do such insignificant and foolish things. Please think twice, Your Majesty!" Qu Dao kowtowed to the ground after finishing speaking. With black hair mixed with white hair, his appearance was very vicissitudes of life, followed by several old officials who knelt down and begged for mercy.

"I just want to take Zhan'er into custody first, and I didn't say to deal with it now. He is guilty or not, and we will know after the trial." Huan Zang waved his sleeves, and it is imperative to put Huan Zhan into prison today. , the matter of offering sacrifices to heaven is not a trifling matter, and it is not something that can be done just by pleading: "I have passed on my will, the eldest prince Huan Zhan, failed to oversee the construction of the Tiantai, which caused the collapse of the Tiantai, and made it impossible to carry out the great event of worshiping the heavens. You are suspected of being corrupt and perverting the law, so go ahead." Put him in the Heavenly Prison, and he will be convicted after the clan mansion has passed the interrogation."

After the decree was issued, there was no way to recover. All the old officials below were already in tears, but they had no choice but to watch Gong Hong lead the imperial army to the eldest prince's mansion to take people.

The turmoil in the court is surging, and the sky is about to change, but this has nothing to do with Huan Yu. After the court, I go back to the mansion and go to see Xiao Mingyu first as usual to make sure that he is still in the mansion. After struggling with each other for a long time, he reluctantly left Xiao Mingyu's room to find Liu Yunzhou. In fact, Huan Yu also thought about taking Xiao Mingyu with him, but after all, the affairs of the court are the most filthy, and he always does not want Xiao Mingyu's ears to be polluted by these dirty things , so every time I talk to Liu Yunzhou, I avoid him.

Huan Yu left Xiao Mingyu's room and was about to find Liu Yunzhou when Huan Xuezhu rushed in.

"Cang Lan is not here, you went to the wrong place to find her." Huan Yu glanced at Huan Xuezhu and said angrily.

"I'm not looking for Cang Lan this time, I'm looking for Third Brother." Huan Xuezhu obviously ran in a hurry, and was panting.

"Looking for me? Why are you looking for me?" Huan Yu wondered, but he knew in his heart that it was probably related to the Huan Zhan incident.

"I heard that elder brother was imprisoned by the emperor, is it true?" Huan Xuezhu said.

"When did you start caring about political affairs?" Huan Yu didn't answer directly, but showed a smile that was not a smile.

"Just tell me, right?" Huan Xuezhu didn't seem to be in the mood to joke with Huan Yu at this time, and she was really anxious.

"Yes!" Huan Yu said.

"Ah? Brother Dahuang really embezzled the money for building the rooftop!" Huan Xuezhu stared.

"I don't know if Brother Dahuang has been corrupted or not. I have to wait for the clan's court to interrogate him." Huan Yu said as if I couldn't help it.

"Oh, third brother, the elder brother treats us well, at least he is much better than the second emperor, you should think of a way to save him!" When Huan Xuezhu heard what Huan Yu said, he was really in a hurry, and treated her In other words, Huan Zhan's conduct is much better than that of Huan Qing, and Huan Zhan still looks like an older brother.

"Father's decree, what can I do, it's all right, don't be crazy in my house, if you want to find Cang Lan, go back to the palace, if you don't find it, go back to the palace." Huan Xuezhu, although the matter of Huan Zhan has nothing to do with him, he is not in a hurry, but it is time to start making preparations, and there is really no other way until the finale is finalized.

"Oh, third brother, why are you so ruthless!" Huan Xuezhu stomped his feet, never expecting that the third brother who she thought was the most affectionate and righteous would be so indifferent.

"I'm just ruthless, go back to the palace and embroider your flowers." After Huan Yu finished speaking, he ignored Huan Xuezhu and left by himself, leaving Huan Xuezhu yelling at the same place.
