Chapter 201 The Last Wheel Chapter 4
There was a faint smell of alcohol in Ziji Palace, and Liu Zhi had already woken up a bit.
He sat at the table with his forehead resting on his hands.
The emperor's head hurt a little, because the scene outside the Ziji Palace just now reached his ears without any accident.
Extremely disappointed with his prince.
There is no doubt about Liu Min's talent and learning, and it is difficult to handle government affairs. He was once very satisfied with this son.
But now, the prince seems to have been carried away by power prematurely.
Should I say Liu Min is too stupid or too crazy?
His eyes and ears are everywhere in the surrounding area, yet he dares to bully his imperial brother so blatantly.
Is such a disposition really the prince's material?
Liu Zhi doubted his decision.The prince still needs more training.
He also once again realized Chen Xiang's good intentions.
I'm afraid Chen Xiang has been treated like this since she was a child, so she didn't want Yu'er to be bullied like this and disguised him.
Thinking about it this way, the more Liu Zhi thought about it, the more he felt sorry for Chen Xiang.
The apology in my heart is getting deeper and deeper, and I want to make up for it more and more.
"Your Majesty, the fourth prince has arrived." Sanxi whispered beside him.
"Let him in quickly." Liu Zhi's tone slowed down, his Yu'er was wronged.
+ + +
After Yunchu entered, before he had time to greet him, Liu Zhi, who was still reeking of alcohol, pulled him aside and sat down.
"Let's have a good chat about homework." Liu Zhi smiled and turned around to pass on the meal.
"Father, my son and minister have important matters to discuss." Yun Chu said.
The information given by Qingxu has not been told to Liu Zhi yet.
"Oh? Tell me!" Liu Zhi continued to smile, and gestured to Sanxi.
This dinner is prepared as usual, and it will be used after the business discussion is over.
Yunchu simply told Liu Zhi about Qingxu being taken away and then attacked the imperial mausoleum.
The matter of the two worlds of immortals and demons, and evil spirits is only mentioned, and the focus is on the blood jade orb, which is my brother's cinnabar seal.
"I don't know who leaked the fact that the Empress Dowager has spiritual energy. These people are just trying to steal his blood jade orb." Yun Chu said seriously, "I'm afraid these evil spirits won't give up easily, so I ask Father to step up the imperial mausoleum." guard."
Liu Zhi fell into deep thought.
If it was said that he still had a little lingering alcohol before, now he is completely sober.
"Yu'er, don't worry, Father will never let anyone disturb your mother's peace. Father will find out whoever leaked the secret." Liu Zhi promised.
He waved his hand and summoned the hidden guards.Deliver a golden token to the Darkguard.
Yun Chu recognized that it was a token to summon the elite troops of the dark guards, and some of those people were said to be cultivators.
He believes that these can properly guard the imperial tomb.
"What Yu'er said reminds me of a case." Liu Zhi frowned tightly, "This happened three months ago. In Huizhou, which is close to Southern Shu, incidents of missing brothers happened one after another. The next two imperial envoys had no idea. Later, your mother was critically ill, and I didn't care about it. I just saw no progress and fined the two envoys. Now that I think about it, maybe the people who kidnapped those brothers were aiming at the blood jade Orb."
Now Huizhou's brother is still missing, and the people in that place are panicked, so he sent someone to suppress it.
He even reprimanded the two imperial envoys, and no one dared to take up the case.
It is estimated that this thing has something to do with evil spirits, and there is nothing ordinary officials can do about it.
Liu Zhi looked back at his fourth prince, and thought of Liu Yu's excellent skills and extraordinary spells taught by Chen Xiang before.Liu Zhi suddenly had confidence in Liu Yu, and felt that he was the only one in the world who could win this case.
However, it was too risky, how should he explain to Chen Xiang that Liu Yu had made a mistake?
But after thinking about it, his Chen Xiang definitely didn't want him to raise Liu Yu into a delicate flower in the deep palace. Since he wanted to become a man of indomitable spirit, he had to take risks.
"Yu'er is going to be sixteen this year, and he's old enough to be able to do business." Liu Zhi probed.
"I would like to share my worries for my father!" Yun Chu heard the implication that the emperor wanted to hand over the cases of these lost brothers to him, which is also a good job.
"Then I will hand over this case to Yu'er, and send you a few capable assistants. If evil spirits are involved, I'm afraid only Yu'er can handle it." Liu Zhi was very satisfied with Yun Chu's answer.
"The child will surely live up to his mission."
"Hahaha, that's good. I will make an order tomorrow. This is your first time on an errand, so you have to be careful." Suddenly, Liu Zhi felt a sense of pride in his heart. It was a long time after the crown prince named him I have never experienced the feeling of being a father.
"Follow your father's teachings."
+ + +
That's how Liu Yunan went to handle the case.
This decision was actually a bit hasty, but the more I thought about it, the more correct it became.
Liu Zhi decided to transfer two capable officials tomorrow to solve this outstanding case gracefully.
Yunchu felt that he finally got a chance.
Most of the courtiers in the palace were won over by the prince, and it was not easy for him to win over.
It is also good to start from outside the palace and build up your own reputation first.
The two discussed the case, and the chat lasted for an hour.
It was almost past the meal time at dusk, and after Sanxi reminded him, Liu Zhicai ordered the meal to be served.
As soon as the words were finished, the steaming food came up like running water.
The two fathers and sons broke the old rule of not talking or sleeping during eclipses, gossiping about family affairs at the dinner table.
In the past, their most frequent topic was Empress Chunyi, Chen Xiang.
Today, Liu Zhi refrained from mentioning it.
However, Yunchu noticed that the food on this table was all Chen Xiang's favorite.
The emperor missed his lover again in his own way.
Liu Zhi began to recall the past and told Yunchu about his childhood.Then how to practice in various ministries, how to inherit the throne, and how hard it is for the seat of the Ninth Five-Year Lord.
Yunchu knew that Liu Zhi had something to say, so could this be considered an excuse?
He smiled and listened attentively.
+ + +
After all these things have been said, the meal is about the same.
Liu Zhi led Yunchu to the nearby Imperial Garden for a walk. It was pleasant to enjoy the night view of the garden along the way.
But Liu Zhi suddenly came to a knowledge test.
Incorporating Liu Yu's soul, these not-so-difficult questions could not trouble him at all.
Every time he answered, he could see Liu Zhixin's expression of joy and satisfaction.
By the time the school exams were over, it was already dark.
Liu Zhi sent some snacks, and the two watched the moon in the gazebo in the imperial garden.
The emperor didn't say much, and Yunchu also accompanied him quietly.
Yunchu thought it was because Liu Zhi felt lonely, and Chen Xiang buried him in a bad mood.
As a part of gaining favorability, Yunchu perfectly played the role of a filial son.
He tried not to think too much.
Loved ones leave and leave alone.
In fact, it reminds him of Haoyuan every day.My heart panicked for no reason.
Yun Chu shook his head, that was all in the past.
They will be reunited soon.
When it was dark, the emperor finally let him go.
When he was leaving, Liu Zhi suddenly said something.
"Don't be afraid, Yu'er, I understand your mother's intentions, and we will see tomorrow. I will not let your mother down again."
When Liu Zhi spoke, there was a bit of majesty on his face.It's not common for him to look like this.His words are also very believable.
Yunchu knew that Liu Zhi's words must be about his brother's identity, which he hadn't mentioned all night.
It was exposed too quickly. Seriously speaking, he committed a serious crime of deceiving the emperor.And Liu Zhi not only didn't blame himself, but also looked quite protective.
This is the light of Chen Xiang.
Yunchu reminded himself that this kind of situation must be avoided in the future.
+ + +
As the prince, Yun Chu has not yet formally assumed his post, so he is naturally not required to attend this court meeting.
Having received the emperor's oral order, he was about to go south on an errand, Yunchu had already ordered the people in the palace to prepare things for use, and keep everything simple.
He didn't know that the court caused a turmoil because of him.
Liu Zhi was furious in the court.The emperor, who had always had a good temper and had never blushed with his courtiers, severely reprimanded two-thirds of the courtiers in the hall at the court meeting.The prince especially ate and hung up.
Some people carry out the rules of their ancestors, and some people carry out the laws of the country.
Liu Zhi is determined to change the rules if the rules are not allowed, and change the laws of the country if they are not allowed.Within Xia Kingdom, the emperor's wishes and orders are the greatest!
No one could do anything about Liu Zhi making such a fuss.
No matter how loud the uproar was, the Yaoguang Pavilion was still quiet, and Yunchu was still patiently teaching Sang Qing martial arts, and threw him the basic military books by the way.
Sang Qing is still not very literate, so Yunchu taught her little by little.
This is a very smart kid who knows everything.
He is going to bring Sang Qing together and let him show his face.If there is a good opportunity, help him seize it.
This is the future Generalissimo, it would be a pity to be his bodyguard.
After Yunchu and Sang Qing finished training, Liu Zhi's order to cause turmoil was also passed down.
The eunuch delivering the decree was all smiles, and Yun Chu knelt down to accept the decree.
"Following the heavens, the emperor's edict said: The fourth son of the emperor is respectful, pure, filial, intelligent and agile, and has made meritorious deeds in escorting him. If he writes this, he will be canonized as Prince Duan, hereby!"
Yun Chu received the imperial decree in shock, he kept wondering what the emperor meant.
Before he could come up with a clue, the eunuch who delivered the decree read out the second imperial decree.
"Prince Mingduan is the imperial envoy, who has full authority to handle Huizhou's outstanding cases. He specially bestows Shangfang with a sword and a Southern Xinjiang tiger talisman. In case of trouble, he can cut it first and then play it. This is yours!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace."
Yunchu kowtowed to thank him, and after receiving the imperial decree, his thoughts gradually became clear.
The elder brother was made a prince, and also bestowed Shang Fang's sword, and became an imperial envoy, which was unprecedented.Not to mention giving a piece of Tiger Talisman.This is the handing over of general power to him.
Even if the emperor feels guilty towards Chen Xiang, even if the emperor loves Liu Yu, this is too generous.
"Your Majesty is using His Highness as a sharpening stone for the crown prince. His Highness's brother's identity has been exposed, and there is no one in the court who can fight him. If no one is fighting for the position of crown prince, the crown prince will focus on the throne." Come on. This time, the emperor made Empress Chunyi perfect and beat the crown prince." Han Chong analyzed with displeasure on his face.
"Father is an emperor, of course he will consider many aspects when doing things." Yun Chu was calm and calm, without any displeasure.
Anyway, he got the benefit.
The position of a prince, regardless of Liu Zhi's intentions, shows that Liu Zhi did not exclude this brother as the heir.
This alone saved him a lot of effort.
"Naturally, Han Chong is just dissatisfied with the emperor for putting His Highness in danger so easily." Han Chong frowned, "The crown prince does not have military power, but His Highness does. What does this make him think? That person is so sinister and vicious that he has no tolerance for it." You have to be careful along the way."
Assassin?Han Chong reminded him.
Yun Chu was so preoccupied with worrying about the Fallen Angel's problem that he forgot that there was still this problem.
"Tiger talisman, tiger talisman, it's really a scary thing. But who cares about those old, weak and disabled soldiers in the southern camp!" Han Chong was very disgusted.
"I hope I don't need to use it at that time." Yun Chu didn't want to encounter any major crisis that required the use of troops.
"I hope so."
