When the subordinate heard the prince's words, he was shocked. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always been very particular about rules, but this is the first time... that he wants to steal things from a minister's house.
It would be fine if it was some important item, but he actually wanted to help someone repair his sword.
But of course they have to obey their master's orders.
"Your Highness, there's one more thing." The subordinate said cautiously, "Master Xiao stumbled upon His Royal Highness the Prince of Yue a few days ago. Several members of the Yuan family, the Prince of Yue's maternal family, suffered and lost their positions. However, His Royal Highness did nothing after learning about this. Instead, he passed a message to Xiao Jingyun. I haven't been able to find out the details, but Master Xiao seemed unhappy when he mentioned the Prince of Yue to Minister Xiao. It must be related to the assassination of Xiao Qilang a few days ago."
After he finished speaking, a hint of coldness appeared in Ying Huaiji's eyes.
After all, he was too soft-hearted and kept someone he shouldn't have kept for too long.
"I understand. Go ahead." Ying Huaiji didn't say anything more.
But that night, he brought some good things to the emperor as a token of filial piety. No one knew what he said to the emperor. He just stayed in the palace for one night.
The next day, when the prince went to the East Palace to check the furnishings, he found a withered tree and asked someone to move it away. However, when he dug it up, he found something buried inside.
The emperor now loves the prince, and the prince knows how to advance and retreat. Many people thought that the emperor only valued this son again on a whim, but over the past period of time, this favor has only increased and not decreased.
The prince was also known for his filial piety. He did not participate in state affairs and was very polite to all his brothers. He even repeatedly avoided the Queen and Prince Rui, which made the Emperor love him even more.
Now he discovered that the East Palace, which was under renovation, had been tampered with, and he was furious.
Investigate strictly.
"Your Majesty, it's just a small thing, how could it really hurt me? It's better to just forget it. I'm going to die soon anyway, it doesn't matter whether these things exist or not." Ying Huaiji was still speaking softly in the palace.
"You are too kind, so these people are taking advantage of you! You are my son, the crown prince of Dafeng! I have already posted a document, looking for old man Zixiao to come to the palace to treat you, and you are not allowed to be negative! But the person who wants to hide poison in the East Palace is really hateful. He even dares to attack the East Palace, so what else is he afraid of!?" The emperor's face was gloomy.
"Father, don't be angry. It's all my fault. I made you worry." Ying Huaiji looked sad and pale.
"The East Palace still needs to be reorganized before you can move in. You should also take care of your health when you are outside. If the third and fourth brothers keep causing trouble for you, just kick them out!" the emperor said again.
"Father, they just want to talk to me. They have no ill intentions. However, I don't want you to worry about me. So, I will stay home and rest for the next few days..."
"You, it is obvious that they are ignorant, but you restrain yourself. You are so weak. How can I be at ease in the future?" The emperor sighed.
Having said that, I was very satisfied in my heart.
He was happy with the deep relationship between him and the prince. Recently, many old ministers in the court had become more obedient and no longer advised him all day long.
Ever since he knew the child's filial piety, he could sleep better at night.
The emperor was determined to investigate, and there was a great commotion in the palace.
Xiao Cunyu knew nothing about this.
After kneeling for most of the night, Xiao Cunyu rested for less than two hours before going out to investigate the case.
Li Chu was like a follower, haunting the place all the time.
