Oiran son

After leaving the Huguo Temple, Ouyang Chen immediately contacted Nangong Chen, asking him to find a way to find the medicinal ingredients in the prescription for him.

Because Luo Yun's life is not in danger for the time being, Ouyang Chen is in the mood to investigate the prince's poisoning case.After several days of investigation, the real culprit has not been found out, but a lot of other minor things have been found out.

"You have been investigating the case of the prince's poisoning for several days. You should have found out who is behind the scenes, right?"

On this day, Emperor Jing came to Ouyang Chen and Xu Zhongwen to ask them about the progress of the case.

The two looked at each other, not knowing how to answer Jingdi's question for a moment, so they remained silent.Seeing that they didn't reply, Emperor Jing's face darkened.

"Don't tell me, you haven't found any clues until now!"

"Your Majesty, forgive me." The two hurriedly pleaded guilty, but Ouyang Chen had no choice but to bite the bullet and answer under Emperor Jing's powerful aura.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, in the two days since the prince's accident, the fourth prince, the ninth prince, and the eleventh prince have all sent people to the East Palace to comfort the prince's injury, but I have checked those things and there is no problem, but——"

"But what!"

"Because they were all involved in the Crown Prince's case, I sent people to search their houses. Although they couldn't find any evidence that they harmed the Crown Prince, they discovered some unknown hobbies."

Emperor Jing narrowed his eyes slightly, "What mistakes did they make, tell me clearly."

Ouyang Chen didn't answer, but handed over the booklet he had prepared earlier.

"This is what Wei Chen and others have found these days, please take a look at it."

Receiving a nod from Emperor Jing, Shuangxi took the book and handed it over to him.

Emperor Jing opened the booklet and took a look, the more he looked at it, the more ugly his face became, and in the end it was as black as the bottom of a pot.

The fourth prince went so far as to communicate with the ministers of the court in private, and even dealt with official business in order to make money; Addicted to female sex, not only hangs around the place of fireworks every night, but also secretly eats Wushisan...

"Bastard! Sinister! I'm really mad at you. Go and catch these scoundrels. If you don't give them a hard lesson, do they still see me as the emperor?"

"Yes." Ouyang Chen and the others took orders and left.

Walking out of the imperial study, the two let out a sigh of relief at the same time, Xu Zhongwen patted Ouyang Chen's shoulder gratefully.

"Fortunately, I listened to you before, told the matter of those princes, and diverted the attention of the Holy Majesty, otherwise, we will not be able to find out who is behind the scenes until now, and the Holy Majesty will definitely blame us.

However, if you hide for a while, you can't hide for a lifetime. If you can't solve the case, the Holy Majesty will still ask us for the crime.And those princes, they will definitely hate the two of us this time, and they don't know how they will deal with us in the future. "

Even if Emperor Jing was angry and punished those princes now, they were still father and son. When he calmed down, those princes were still princes, and they were still just courtiers.Few people who oppose the royal family have a good end since ancient times.

Ouyang Chen calmed down and said: "Master Xu, don't worry too much. Everything we do is in accordance with the order, and it is all for the sake of the Holy One. Since we have a clear conscience, there is no need to be afraid."

The most important thing was that he didn't think those princes could do anything to attack the son of a dignified general.

As if infected by his composure, Xu Zhongwen thought about it calmly, he is a majestic inspector, not someone who is allowed to be rounded and flattened by others, even if the other party is a prince, it is not so easy to move him.

Afterwards, several princes were punished by Emperor Jing, and all of them went to Huguo Temple to lead their cultivation.

Recently, Huguo Temple has been very lively.

This kind of bustle does not mean that the temple is full of fireworks and the number of believers soars, but that four princes came to the temple all at once.All of a sudden, four princes who brought their hair to practice came here. This is a grand event that has never happened before. How can it not excite the monks in the temple?

However, when the excitement passed, the monks felt that it was a disaster rather than a blessing that so many Buddhas came to the temple all at once.

These princes are pampered masters on weekdays, and their food and clothing are all exquisite. How can the simple rice in the temple satisfy them.Of course, on the surface they did not dare to break the precepts and make a living in the monastery, but they were not living comfortably, and the monks could not even think about having a good life.

In the case of the prince being poisoned, after the prince's poison was solved, and those restless sons were thrown into the Huguo Temple, Emperor Jing's mood became better. He didn't really blame him, he just told them to investigate the case carefully and then let them go.

Coming out of the imperial study room, Xu Zhongwen felt unreal as if he had survived a catastrophe.

"Your Majesty, is this implying that we don't need to continue the investigation? Before, didn't he look like he wouldn't give up until he found out the real culprit? Why is he now like not to pursue it? The trend has changed too fast. Alright."

Ouyang Chen said meaningfully: "If the Holy Majesty asked us to track down the real culprit in order to seek justice for the prince, then he doesn't care much about the truth now, is it because that justice is no longer necessary?"

Xu Zhongwen and Ouyang Chen looked at each other, and after a while, they exchanged a knowing smile.

None of them are stupid people. To Emperor Jing's attitude, one only needs to think about it for a while to understand what's going on.

At the beginning, when seeing the prince being poisoned, Emperor Jing's anger can be imagined, even if he cut him into pieces, he still couldn't relieve his hatred.But when he found out that the real culprit was most likely his son, after being shocked, he tried to find a way to prevent the real culprit from surfacing.

It was precisely because Emperor Jing knew who the real culprit was that they could not find any clues after searching for so long.

However, even if Emperor Jing is the son of heaven, some things can only be understood but not expressed in words, so he had that attitude just now.Of course, he believed that Ouyang Chen and Ouyang Chen were both smart people, and they should understand what he meant, so they made such concealed hints to let the case go unsolved.

Xu Zhongwen understood Emperor Jing's hint, but he was not sure about Ouyang Chen's attitude, he was just probing like that just now, and Ouyang Chen's answer gave him a reassurance.

"However, I'm a little curious. Who is the poisoner?" After working with Ouyang Chen for a few days, I found out that he is an upright person, not the kind of villain who would hurt others behind his back. He muttered something in front of him.

Ouyang Chen laughed and said: "Actually, how many people in this world can make the Holy Majesty not to pursue his crimes, but do everything possible to cover it up for him. Since the Holy Majesty doesn't want us to know, then it's better for us not to know, what do you think? "
