"Yes, I can't bear it any longer after so much dirty water was thrown at me." Zhong Ming'e said slowly, looking at Gao Zhiqi, "What did Minister Zou say?"
"Your Highness. Minister Zou said that without the testimony from Ningguta, it would be difficult to link Xiao An's death to the An family and the Rong Prince's Mansion." Gao Zhiqi said with embarrassment. Seeing Zhong Minge's somewhat unpleasant expression, Gao Zhiqi hurriedly said, "But Minister Zou also said that even if the deposed prince does not want to be involved, the Ministry of Justice still has a case on file. As soon as Xiao An left Beijing, the An family could not wait to send out assassins. These are all established facts. Although it cannot be linked to the Rong Prince's Mansion for the time being, it is still possible to bring down An Zishang."
"Then take him down." Zhong Ming'e said slowly. He took a sip of tea and continued, "Since An Zishang entered the palace and asked the emperor to issue an order to marry Xiao An into the Eastern Palace, the emperor should have lost his trust in An Zishang. If it weren't for the fact that the An family is well-established and is related to the two princes, the emperor would not have kept him for so long. But now is different from the past. Since An Zishang's handle has fallen into our hands, we must help the emperor get rid of this thorn in his side."
"Your Highness is right," Gao Zhiqi said with a smile, "If An Zishang falls, it will inevitably involve Prince Rong's Mansion. Apart from other things, Princess Rong, Da An, will naturally be implicated, and the future of the young master will probably be affected as well. By then, the young master of our Hui County Prince's Mansion will naturally be superior to him."
Zhong Minge pursed his lips and smiled, said nothing, lowered his head to drink tea, and then he heard footsteps outside.
"Who is it?" Gao Zhiqi also heard it, and hurriedly stood up and walked over to open the door. Looking at the guard standing outside, he frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Guard Gao, there is a letter sent from the imperial mausoleum," the young guard hurriedly took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Gao Zhiqi with both hands, "saying that it is instructed to be delivered to the prince personally."
Gao Zhiqi frowned and looked at the letter: "It's from the imperial mausoleum..."
"Bring it in!" Before Gao Zhiqi could finish his words, Zhong Minge had already walked over and snatched the letter from Gao Zhiqi's hand. He couldn't wait to tear open the letter and unfold the thin piece of paper inside. As soon as he saw the familiar handwriting on it, he froze there before he could even laugh.
"Your Highness," Gao Zhiqi sent the young guard away. He turned around and saw Zhong Ming'e standing so straight. He felt a little strange. He walked over and took a closer look at Zhong Ming'e's face. Gao Zhiqi was immediately shocked. "Your Highness, what's wrong with you? What's wrong with you? I'll go get the doctor right away!"
"Come back," Zhong Ming'e said hoarsely, calling Gao Zhiqi who was about to run out. He took two deep breaths and tore the letter into pieces. He threw the pieces of paper in his hand to the ground, then gritted his teeth and said, "Prepare the horse for me. I want to go to the imperial mausoleum."
"Now?" Gao Zhiqi was shocked. "Your Highness, why are you going to the imperial mausoleum for no reason?"
Yes, it was not a festival, and there was no order from His Majesty, so why would Zhong Minge go to the imperial mausoleum? If people knew about it, there would be some unbearable rumors.
"I don't care, I'm going now! I must go!" Zhong Minge seemed to be possessed by a demon. He kept muttering to himself, his eyes were frighteningly red, and then he rushed out regardless of anything.
"Your Highness! Please don't do anything rash!" Gao Zhiqi stamped his feet anxiously, and immediately hurriedly cleaned up the scraps of paper on the ground and planned to burn them. He didn't know what happened in the imperial mausoleum, but looking at Zhong Minge's reaction, it must be a big deal. Naturally, it couldn't be leaked, so these scraps of paper had to be destroyed. He hurriedly took out the flint and steel, and threw the scrap of paper into the brazier. When he was about to light the fire, he was suddenly stunned, and then took out a scrap of paper from it -
marriage.
Gao Zhiqi recognized that it was Liao Chongwu's handwriting.
