[Red Mansion] Married by decree

In the middle of the night, the study room in the main courtyard of Prince Chen's Mansion was still lit.The guard outside the study is Prince Chen's personal eunuch.He turned his head and glanced at the study room, with some worry in his eyes.Since his return, Prince Chen has driven everyone out and locked himself in the study alone, not even eating dinner.

This night, the candles in the study were not extinguished, and Prince Chen did not rest, and sat until dawn. He rubbed his aching forehead, got up and walked out of the study, ready to go to court in the morning.

"Prince Chen, you have been investigating the case of framing the regent for a few days, is there any result?" When the morning court was about to end, the emperor asked.

Prince Chen walked out of the team and bowed and said: "My son is not talented, I haven't found anything yet."

"I haven't found anything yet! It's been a few days, why should my ninth brother be wronged for nothing! If you can't find anything, I don't mind finding someone else to investigate this matter." Prince Chen's answer The emperor was very dissatisfied, and he directly said that someone else would take over his errand, which was an insult to Prince Chen.

"Father, please forgive me. My son must find out this matter as soon as possible." Prince Chen quickly knelt down and pleaded guilty.He knew in his heart that at this time and place, there were some things that could not be said.

Seeing this, Yun Ze frowned incredulously. His imperial brother has become more and more irritable recently, and that incident had a great influence on him.He quickly stood up and interceded for Prince Chen. The two were allies, so he couldn't just watch Prince Chen being scolded by the emperor.

With Yunze interceding, the emperor asked Prince Chen to get up and didn't say anything else.However, his mood still did not calm down.Everyone took a look at Yunze, because the emperor was in a bad mood these past few days, all the ministers were scolded all over, and the scolding of the princes was even worse.

The only one who survived was the king regent with the strongest grace. The emperor was already angry just now, so he suppressed him because of the king regent.It seems that it is necessary to ask the regent for advice on the reason why the emperor has been in a bad mood these past few days, lest he get into bad luck and directly hit the muzzle of the gun.

At the same time, everyone was amazed at how favored Yunze was, and some ministers and princes were even more relieved. Fortunately, this is the emperor's younger brother, not his son. to others to fight.

After the morning court, Prince Chen called Yunze to stop directly. He did not lower his voice, but bowed to Yunze and said, "Just now I would like to thank Uncle Jiuhuang for pleading for my nephew."

"It's okay, it's just a matter of raising your hands." In Yunze's words, he didn't care at all about the pleading.

"Uncle Huang, my nephew just found a single copy a few days ago. I wonder if Uncle Huang is free?" When Prince Chen asked this question, his voice was still not lowered. Sending a book to honor uncle, there is no need to deliberately conceal it.

As we all know, the regent does not like orphans, but loves to collect them.This is not an arty move. Before the regent, he didn't like to collect this.This liking started after they got married, just because Daiyu likes these things.Yunze often collects some lonely copies and puts them in his study for Daiyu to look through them.

Therefore, Yunze did not reject Prince Chen's proposal, turned around and went to Prince Chen's mansion together with him.It wasn't because of the so-called orphan copies, but Prince Chen had given him several orphan copies, but they were all sent directly to the palace for Daiyu, and it was the first time for him to go to his residence to read.I'm afraid that it's false to look at the lonely book, but it's true to find yourself when you have something to do.

"The prince and the emperor have something to discuss. You go outside and watch, and no one is allowed to approach." Prince Chen ordered his personal eunuch after entering the study.

Seeing this, Yun Ze also gave Quan De instructions: "Quan De, you also go outside and guard."

"Please forgive me, Uncle Huang." After everyone left, the first thing Prince Chen did was to bow to Yunze, and he didn't get up after speaking, but kept the gesture of saluting.

Yunze didn't move at all, he looked at Prince Chen and said firmly: "You know who the person who framed this prince is now."

"Nephew does know, and even has some evidence in his hands." Prince Chen admitted this generously, and Yunze could guess it, so he was not surprised at all.

"But you told the emperor that you didn't find out." Yun Ze didn't have any dissatisfaction when he said this, and didn't seem to mind Prince Chen's concealment from the emperor: "What did you find out? guilt?"

Prince Chen did not answer Yun Ze's question, but threw another question: "Uncle Huang, my nephew has no evidence in hand, so I don't know whether I should tell my father."

"What did you find out?" Yun Ze asked, he had already guessed what Prince Chen was going to say, but he pretended not to know.

Prince Chen gritted his teeth, and spit out what he wanted to say word by word: "My nephew found out that the elder brother and the third brother are going to force a confession to usurp the throne. My nephew wants to tell the father about this, but he is afraid that the father will The emperor doesn't believe my nephew's words. I asked my uncle to come here today, just to discuss it with him."

"You want to tell Brother Huang about this?" Yun Ze asked.When he looked at Prince Chen, he frowned and his lips were tightly pursed.

"Yes." Prince Chen only answered one word, sonorously and forcefully, without hesitation.

"Do you know what doing this means to you?" Yunze asked again, he still had the same expression.

"Nephew knows." Prince Chen still looked respectful, and his words were still sonorous and forceful.

He hadn't thought about being the oriole behind the mantis. Although his father wanted to belong to him, he hadn't made up his mind yet.The relationship between father and son, father and son, has always been more from the eldest son, the first son, and the youngest son.I am afraid that my position in the heart of my father is not as good as these three.

Now the lineage of the crown prince, the first prince, and the third prince are all powerful. Although he has the support of the Ninth Emperor Uncle, he is not the absolute next emperor.If I choose the right time to say this time, my father may not be able to stop it even if he wants to.When the time comes, these three bloodlines will all be pulled down by him.

However, if he told his father now, nothing would happen to the crown prince who threatened him the most and was also the most legitimate heir to the throne.Not only that, but he will become even more powerful because of the downfall of the First Prince and the Third Prince.

"It's too late for you to regret it now." Yun Ze looked at Prince Chen for a moment, he said this, and he didn't know whether he hoped that Prince Chen would regret it, or he didn't want him to regret it.

"Nephew, I won't regret it." Prince Chen's tone became more firm, not only because he had already figured out what to do, but also because of Yunze's attitude.

"Remember to send the lonely copy to the uncle's house." After Yun Ze said this, he stood up and wanted to go out.

This topic jumped too much, even Prince Chen was stunned for a moment before he understood what Yun Ze meant, and the corner of Prince Hou Chen's mouth twitched.It's this time, and I still don't forget to give Aunt Ninth's only copy. Aunt Ninth is really capable to be loved by Uncle Nine like this.

Yunze and Prince Chen came in a carriage, and the carriage departed from Prince Chen's mansion and arrived at the gate of the palace soon.Yun Ze sat on the carriage and did not move. Seeing that Yun Ze did not move, Prince Chen, as a junior, could not come down first, so he could only sit inside and accompany him.

"Brother Huang not only needs a benevolent successor, but also a next king who can carry the imperial power." Yun Ze leaned against the wall of the carriage with his eyes closed, as if he had fallen asleep.However, the words in his mouth are not as careless as his posture.

Prince Chen recited these words silently in his heart, and then respectfully saluted Yun Ze: "Nephew, thank you for your guidance."

Under the imperial case, Prince Chen knelt there, sweating coldly on his back.His head was lowered, unable to see his father's expression clearly.Although he couldn't see it, he could tell his father's mood at this moment from the oppressive feeling.Anyone who is betrayed by his own son will be angry and sad, even if that person is the emperor.

Prince Chen prostrated himself and said: "I know this is a serious matter. After getting the news, I hurried over to report it to my father."

After entering, Yunze was given a seat by the emperor. He heard Prince Chen repeat what he had said to him, and then he saw the emperor's eyes looking over.Since he understood what the emperor asked, he shook his head slowly, indicating that this matter had nothing to do with him.

Seeing Yunze shaking his head, the emperor also believed that this matter had nothing to do with him. Firstly, it was because of his trust in Yunze; He would ask Lao Ba to come over just after he went to Prince Chen's mansion, just to arouse his suspicion in vain.

"You mean, the boss and the third brother are plotting to force the palace to usurp the throne after my long life, and to frame this crime on the prince!" The emperor's tone was low, and after he finished speaking, he began to cough violently. However, his mood is still fluctuating greatly.

"Preach the imperial physician!" Seeing the blood on the handkerchief, Yun Ze hurriedly roared outside, then walked up to the emperor and stroked his back.

Hearing Yunze's eager voice, Prince Chen also raised his head. Although he knew that his father was seriously ill, it was the first time he saw his father like this.His father's face was pale, and he couldn't stop coughing, as if he wanted to cough forever.

Prince Chen got Yunze's wink, hesitated for a moment, stepped forward quickly, brought a teacup to his emperor's mouth, let him drink some tea, and said smoothly, "Father, you must take care of the dragon body."

The eldest son and third son who had just been disobeyed before were angry, and now seeing Prince Chen's filial and sincere appearance, the emperor's heart was even more partial to Prince Chen.After he stopped coughing, he put his hand on Prince Chen's and only said three words: "Good boy."

The emperor finally recovered from coughing for a while, and the first thing he said after he stopped coughing was: "Kneel down!"

This sentence was not named, but Prince Chen knelt down the moment he heard the words, and did not change positions, directly kneeling beside the emperor.At the same time, he was also a little apprehensive, not knowing what his father was going to do.

"Let me ask you, how do you think the boss and the third child should be dealt with?" The emperor's gaze has been fixed on Prince Chen, even if it is a weak king, Prince Chen can feel the invisible pressure.

The best answer at this time, of course, is to reflect the respect of brothers and sisters, but Prince Chen thought of what Yun Ze had said to him before getting off the carriage.Prince Chen wanted to look at Yunze almost subconsciously, but he suppressed this movement, he knew that at this time, no matter what, he couldn't look at Yunze.

"Father, my son thinks that the elder brother and the third brother must have been instigated by others, and those who instigated them should be severely punished. As for the eldest brother and the third brother, they should find a reason to cut their titles as a punishment." The royal family can't issue two A prince who forced the palace would lose the face of the royal family.

After Prince Chen finished speaking, he secretly observed the emperor's expression, and saw that the emperor's expression did not change, he continued: "If the elder brother and the third elder brother repent, the father will raise them by himself, and we will find another one in the future. Return the title to the two of them from the beginning. But if the eldest brother and the third brother are obsessed with their obsession, of course they will be circled."

The emperor didn't ask any more questions, didn't call out, just looked at Prince Chen.After a long time, he opened his mouth, but it was also three words that had nothing to do with the previous one.He said, "Go down."

"My son, leave." Prince Chen secretly glanced at Yunze, he was a little unclear about his father's attitude, and whether his words were in line with his father's wishes.
