Chapter 842 The prince is seriously ill?
"Empress Dowager, the Fourth Master requests an audience."
At this moment, the voice of the servant's reply was heard from outside the door.
The Queen Mother frowned and lifted the curtain: "Fourth Brother, why are you here? You are not feeling well, come up and sit down."
After the Fourth Master boarded the carriage, he said, "Madam, please take a rest. Don't worry. The Emperor is busy, and my eldest brother has ordered us to stop and tidy up. He has already asked the kitchen staff to prepare the meal."
The Queen Mother frowned and asked, "Can't we discuss it once we get to Khorchin?"
The Fourth Master said, "Madam, this matter is of great importance. We must not let the Mongolian nobles get wind of it."
Seeing the Queen Mother staring blankly, he warmed the wine, took some grapes, and brought them to her: "Queen Mother, there's no need to rush. Once the Emperor is done with his work, we can walk for half a day and arrive. I heard the Emperor say before that he would stay in Khorchin for more than ten days. By then, I'm afraid you'll have had enough."
After hearing this, the Queen Mother finally smiled and patted her hands as she warmed the wine: "Okay."
Then he looked at the Fourth Master and said, "Fourth Master, what happened up front? Why did Suo Etu anger your father?"
The Fourth Master shook his head slightly. "I don't know the specifics either. I just saw Suo Etu, Mingzhu, Tong Guowei, and other ministers discussing matters in the Emperor's carriage since yesterday."
The Queen Mother frowned: "But who has come to the capital?"
The Fourth Master shook his head slightly. "Grandson hasn't been to the Emperor's presence for a few days, so I'm not sure. However, I received a letter from Mother yesterday."
The Queen Mother listened and understood what was going on. She sighed and said, "The Emperor usually treats him well, but he actually did something so treasonous that he angered the Emperor.
Well, well, since we're going to set up camp here, then let's set up camp."
"Your Majesty, it's not too far from your Khorchin. How about Jiu'er accompany you around here?"
"No need, you are tired today, go back and rest first."
After saying this, the Queen Mother looked at Nanny Fang beside her and said, "Go and ask the Master where he is now. If he is free, please invite him to come and lecture with me."
The Fourth Master and Wenjiu looked at each other and then said goodbye together.
"Sir, what on earth did Lord Suo Etu do wrong this time?"
After getting off the carriage, Wen Jiu couldn't help but ask.
The Fourth Master frowned slightly as he listened. "It's probably related to corruption and bribery. Recently, memorials have been submitted to the court, all implicating Second Brother. The Emperor also discovered that Suo Etu secretly reported the incident to the capital. It would be surprising if he wasn't furious."
"Report?"
The Fourth Master nodded. "The Emperor intercepted a secret letter from Suo Etu to my second brother. No one knows the contents of the letter. However, I'm afraid my second brother will be implicated this time."
Wen Jiu suddenly looked at the Fourth Master: "Master, you are not going to send a message back to the Crown Prince as well, are you?"
The Fourth Master was stunned and glanced at Wen Jiu: "What are you thinking, girl? If you really send it back at this time, you will really harm your second brother."
Wen Jiu smiled and nodded: "Well, fortunately, Master is sensible."
"Your Highness, Fourth Young Master, you two are here?" Liang Jiugong breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the two of them.
"Why is Anda here?"
"Your Highness, the Emperor is summoning you two."
The Fourth Master and Wenjiu looked at each other and immediately walked towards Emperor Kangxi's carriage in front.
When the Fourth Master and Wen Jiu arrived, they were obviously the last among the princes.
When the Eighth Master saw the Fourth Master and Wenjiu coming together, he immediately raised his eyebrows. Then he saw Wenjiu holding the Fourth Master's hand. His expression suddenly became even more difficult to read.
"Old Four, how are you?"
The Prince of Zhi quickly walked over and supported the Fourth Master.
"Brother, I'm actually fine. It's just a few steps, there's no need to be so delicate."
"How can that be? You don't look very happy." After saying that, he pushed the Fourth Master to sit down.
Wenjiu glanced at the Fourth Master, then glanced at the Prince of Zhi, then lowered his head and pretended not to see.
"Come in, everyone."
After a long time, the voice of Emperor Kangxi came from the tent not far away.
The four masters looked at each other, and then got on Emperor Kangxi's carriage one after another.
Fortunately, Emperor Kangxi's carriage was big enough to accommodate everyone without being crowded.
"Take a look at them all." After saying that, Emperor Kangxi handed the letter to Prince Zhi.
Prince Zhi quickly read through it and was also surprised: "The Crown Prince is seriously ill?"
