Chapter 999: Eating melons, delicious

Zhou Shuren sipped his tea and sighed, "The blood-red plum blossoms will bloom in a few days."

Wang Ju didn't react at first, but soon he understood. His father had told him a lot about the court in the past few days. "It's a pity that it's not pretty."

Zhou Shuren's metaphor made him not want to appreciate the plum blossoms this year.

In the Ministry of Rites, Feng Huai had a gloomy face. Officials of the Feng family were impeached one after another. This was premeditated. Although the emperor had not taken any action yet, he was very panicked because he was obviously about to get the position of Minister of Personnel.

Wu Ming was relaxed. Ever since the Feng family got into trouble, Feng Huai had no time to keep an eye on him. Now, just the appetizer had made the Feng family anxious.

Gu Zhuomin was upset. No one was bothering him, but he was afraid. "If something happens to the Feng family, will the Ministry of Rites be cleared out?"

He has just joined the Ministry of Rites, so he won't be implicated, right? Or will he be pushed out to take the blame again?

Wu Ming looked at Gu Zhuomin's blue eyes and asked, "How would I know that?"

Gu Zhuomin didn't believe it. He always felt that Wu Ming knew something, and he knew a lot, but Wu Ming was too calm.

Wu Ming added, "You should be more careful in the next few days."

This is not really to scare Gu Zhuomin. If the Ministry of Rites is really cleaned up, it will be easy for him to be dragged into it.

Gu Zhuomin swallowed his saliva. He thought the Ministry of Rites was the relatively stable one among the six ministries, but he didn't expect this.

The next day, the snow stopped in the capital. The emperor looked through the folded books one by one, "Zhang Yang really did a lot of research. Look, he found things that I didn't even notice."

The prince knew that his father was not talking about Zhang Yang, but the power behind Zhang Yang. "Should we take this opportunity to clean up some of them?"

The emperor didn't say anything and he was not ready to move. He was waiting for the fourth brother to counterattack.

After a cup of tea, the emperor finally spoke, "Let the fourth brother know about Zhang Yang's actions."

The prince's heart moved, "Yes."

The next day, Zhou Shuren arrived late for the morning court session. He paused as he entered the hall. He saw that all the ministers were lowering their heads. He took a quick look and found that the emperor was not there.

It was not until I saw Prince Liang grabbing Zhang Yang by the collar that I understood. I understood.

King Liang wanted to chop Zhang Yang to death with a single blow. He had just found out yesterday that Zhang Yang had the longest arm, even the third brother, King Chu, could not match him. The third brother hated him so much, but he did not expect that today's move was not the third brother's, but he was just adding insult to injury.

Prince Qi stared at Zhang Yang with deep eyes. This shouldn't be possible. Zhang Yang has only been back to the royal family for a short time. He shouldn't have such great power. Now he can make the fourth prince furious, which shows that Zhang Yang has done a lot. Could it be that Zhang Yang is really the crown prince?

The King of Qi quickly denied it. People's ambitions could not be concealed, especially for princes like them. Even if they hid it well, they could still feel it from each other. It was their intuition about the enemy.

The King of Chu took a step back and said in a low voice, "Before, I thought the fifth brother was stupid, but now I feel so creepy."

Should he be happy that it was the fourth brother who took the initiative to attack the Qi family?

The Feng family has not been charged with any serious crime at the moment, but everyone knows that what’s to come is the highlight.

Zhang Yang's face flushed, and his neck was a little tight. He had indeed done a lot of things, and he did not expect that his people were so efficient. In just a few days, they obtained the evidence of the Feng family's crimes, all of which were murder evidence.

Zhang Yang tried his best to pry the fourth brother's hands apart, but unfortunately, Prince Liang was a skilled fighter, while Zhang Yang was just a weak scholar and there was no way he could break free.

The King of Qi and the King of Chu were close by but did not offer to rescue them. They hoped that the Fourth Brother would not show any mercy in his attack and that they would all perish together.

The ministers were anxious. Seeing that the Fifth Prince was about to roll his eyes, the ministers gave advice one after another. Feng Huai was so scared that his soul flew away and he hurried forward, "Your Highness Prince Liang, let go."

King Liang didn't really want to kill anyone, so he let go of his hand in disgust. Zhang Yang coughed. He just felt the pain of death. His throat was extremely painful and he couldn't utter a word.

Zhou Shuren was not tall, and he really wanted to stand on tiptoe to take a look, but it would be too obvious to eat the melon. He did not think that King Liang was a reckless person. Seeing that Zhang Yang could not say a word, he did not want Zhang Yang to speak today.

Zhou Shuren felt that the emperor not only came late today, but also came on time. The emperor arrived just after the farce was over.

After the emperor sat down, he asked with concern, "Old Five, why are you covering your neck?"

Zhang Yang felt very uncomfortable. He opened his mouth but couldn't say a word. However, he could point at the fourth brother with his hands, as if it was all the fourth brother's fault.

The King of Liang knelt down immediately, "Father, I am furious. I thought I was sincere to the Fifth Brother and taught him a lot. But how did the Fifth Brother treat me? First he staged a poisoning plot to harm me, and now he is framing me. I am heartbroken, Father."

Zhou Shuren heard the crying and felt emotional. His impression of the Fourth Prince was always that he was a great actor. Look at him, he started crying as soon as he said he would. His crying sounded extremely aggrieved.

Zhang Yang stared. How could he stage a scene of being poisoned? "Father, I didn't frame my fourth brother. I was really poisoned."

King Liang looked even more sad. "If you were really poisoned and your offspring were affected, how could my concubine get pregnant?"

Even though his throat hurt, Zhang Yang had to explain, "That's because the poison has been detoxified."

King Liang said, "If you say it's poisoned, it's poisoned. If you say it's fine, it's fine. Father, you have to make the decision for your son."

Zhou Shuren was a little excited. This was a live version. It would have been even better if he could have a good seat to watch the show. It was a bit of a pity.

Prince Qi curled his lips. No matter whether Zhang Yang's concubine was really pregnant or not, Prince Liang wanted to prove that Zhang Yang staged the incident himself.

The King of Chu wanted to speak, but looked at Zhang Yang again and finally remained silent. When it came to the Feng family's trouble, the Fourth Brother was no different from him, but Zhang Yang told him to be alert.

After the morning court session ended, Zhou Shuren watched Prince Liang beat Zhang Yang, and then the emperor seemed to be unaware and did not shout at anyone.

When he got home that night, Zhou Shuren described it to his wife in a vivid way, "The King of Qi and the King of Chu were not just trying to stop the fight, they were secretly doing a lot of dirty tricks. The King of Qi stepped on Zhang Yang's leg. If Zhang Yang hadn't been holding his head with both hands, he would have stepped on his hand. The King of Chu was also cunning, kicking him secretly from time to time."

Zhulan, ".......Is today so exciting?"

Zhou Shuren was very energetic. "Ah, it's very exciting. This is not an act. He is really evil, with evil heart and evil hands."

Zhulan looked at her husband's excitement and said, "Zhang Yang has aroused the vigilance of several princes."

"So everything should be done step by step. You must not want to get it done in one go, tsk tsk!"

Zhu Lan chuckled, "That's enough, it's getting late, go to bed quickly, you have to attend the morning court tomorrow!"

Zhou Shuren pursed his lips unhappily, "I hate attending court in the morning in winter the most."

Especially since it’s still a cold winter this year!

In the Fifth Prince's Mansion, Zhang Yang was hit many times, mainly because of humiliation. Today, King Liang embarrassed him twice in front of the ministers. He must avenge this vengeance. Then he threw away the pillow in anger, "Child, why is it so difficult to have a child? Didn't the poison have been detoxified? Why is there no child yet? If he hadn't thought of a way, thinking of this, his face became even darker.
