"It shouldn't be... right? Didn't it mean that Emperor Mingguang ordered the eldest prince to go to the Gu family to apologize? The eldest prince still dares to go behind Emperor Mingguang's back and even if smallpox is not cured, why arrest the Yao family?"
"Oh, you don't understand this. This is a big issue related to face."
"Perhaps the eldest prince wants to avenge himself? He is the eldest prince. When has he ever let others step on his face like this?"
"this……"
…
Regardless of this or that, the news that the Yao family had been captured by the eldest prince and returned to the capital still filled the entire capital.
Along with this rumor, there is another wave——
"Didn't you say that the Yao family had smallpox and died? How come they were captured again?"
"Isn't it?! The Yao family has smallpox?! Oh my god... If we are captured and taken back to Beijing, then we..."
"It's over, it's over, isn't this eldest prince crazy?!"
…
It's your business to take revenge on the Yao family, but the Yao family all got smallpox, and you brought them back to the capital. Didn't you want to kill everyone?
For a time, many people were angry and felt that the eldest prince was making fun of everyone's lives.
Yes, they admitted that the "smallpox" prevention and control in Yunyang City was effective. There was no large-scale outbreak and no large number of deaths. They were not afraid of ten thousand, but just in case.
How could he guarantee that smallpox would not break out in the capital today?
"Oh, you don't know?"
"What do you know?" His expression was blank.
The commentator became even more enthusiastic. He leaned into the other person's ear and whispered: "This is what my seventh aunt's neighbor's younger son's aunt told me. I heard that the eldest prince wants to take credit.
.”
"Stealing credit?" asked the question mark on his face.
"You are stupid, what is smallpox? A monster that turns pale after hearing about it. If smallpox is found anywhere, wouldn't it scare people to death? But this time, Yunyang City got it, but I heard that it was controlled. The person who controlled it was not
The eldest prince is the one who is still in Yunyang City...the official of Dali Temple, do you know?"
"An official of Dali Temple? You mean the young minister of Dali Temple, right? He seemed to have been sent to Yunyang City at that time."
"But this time, do you think any official from Dali Temple has returned?"
Shaking his head: "No."
"That's right. If you haven't come back, then you must still be in Yunyang City, or on the way back. No, in order to gain credit, the eldest prince brought the person back in advance and took a shortcut just to get there.
It’s good to buy one in front of the emperor. Think about it, he is the eldest son of the emperor, but now it is the second prince who has the honor, how can he find a way to earn face for himself?"
The man became angry when he heard this: "This is too shameless. It's his business to earn face. How could he make fun of smallpox? Who doesn't know that smallpox is terrible? He brought smallpox back to the capital. Then
what should we do?"
"Yes, that's why I said, this eldest prince..." Before he finished speaking, he sighed softly, "Alas... I asked him to go to the Gu family to apologize, but he ran away halfway through, and asked the two
The prince continued to apologize on his behalf, and now this happens again. Really..."
As soon as this rumor came out, many people were disappointed with what the eldest prince had done.
If it weren't for the lack of demonstrations in ancient times, many people would probably have wanted to sit in front of the palace to prevent Emperor Mingguang from being confused and giving the throne to the eldest prince.
Not long after he came back, the eldest prince Li Jian heard such rumors: "..."
Can he kill them?
What did he do?
He just went to pick someone up, how did it become "grabbing credit"?
In the hall, the courtiers argued endlessly about this. Some people felt that this rumor was not groundless, and that the eldest prince must have done something to cause such rumors to appear; others felt that based on the eldest prince's behavior in previous years, this was not like the eldest prince.
Things you can do.
As for those who sided with the eldest prince, no one knew whether they really sided with the eldest prince. Anyway, the court was noisy and lively.
Emperor Mingguang, who was sitting on the throne, looked at everything below with an expressionless face.
He knew that the eldest prince was not smart enough, was dull, and lacked wisdom, but he was also his son, why should he be disliked by them?
What do they think they are?
Are they smart?
If it weren't for his plan, Emperor Mingguang would really want to kill them all out of his temper.
"Snapped--"
Emperor Mingguang suddenly slammed the table angrily and shouted: "Okay, what's the fuss about? The eldest prince finally suppressed the ceiling and saved the lives of the people of Yunyang City. This unparalleled feat has fallen into your mouth. How can you
Has it become like this?"
"Your Majesty, calm down, I don't dare." The quarreling ministers immediately shut up and knelt down.
"Don't you dare? I think you are very brave..." Emperor Mingguang directly named the ministers and asked them, what evidence do they have to prove that the eldest prince did such a thing?
Unexpectedly, the man actually had proof, and directly said that if he didn't believe it, he could call the Yao family who were imprisoned in the prison and ask. As far as they knew, Jiang Yi, the general of the town army, and She Hongwen, the Shaoqing of the Great Geographical Area, were not allowed to go to Yun.
Picking up the Yao family from Yangcheng.
Not wanting to encounter smallpox in Yunyang City, they had to stay and control the smallpox.
After the smallpox in Yunyang City was resolved, Jiang Yi, the general of the town army, and She Hongwen, the young minister of the Great Geographical Area, did not come back, but it was the eldest prince who escorted the Yao family back to the capital.
"I dare to ask, Your Majesty, what crime did the Yao family commit? Why don't Your Majesty bring them to the main hall and ask them personally."
It stands to reason that if the Yao family is guilty, they should be handed over to Dali Temple for trial. If it is not a major case, there is no need to send it to Emperor Mingguang.
But this person was originally the cannon fodder pushed out by King Zhennan and others, and they received reliable information that the people in the prison were not the Yao family at all, but the Ma family. How could they not encourage Emperor Mingguang to personally intervene?
Just the fact that the eldest prince "replaced" the Yao family for no reason could crush the eldest prince to death.
"Okay, I want to see what this matter is all about." Emperor Mingguang, with an angry look on his face, directly asked people to take the Yao clan members who had just been brought back and put them in the prison, and also asked him to take them with him.
People went to the eldest prince's mansion to tell him that the eldest prince had entered the palace.
Because he had just returned, the eldest prince Li Jian went to the palace to greet Emperor Mingguang. After Concubine Yu paid her regards, Emperor Mingguang understood that she was tired from the journey and allowed her to return home to rest.
After Mrs. Ma had such a scene in the prison, she completely fell out with the rest of the Ma family.
Ma Erfu would make such a fuss, so he would go all out.
She endured it again and again, and she ended up in the prison. If she didn't make a fuss, she was afraid she wouldn't be able to get out.
Just when she thought the Ma family was really doomed, the Ma family actually ate a note from a steamed bun while eating lunch brought by the government servants.
Mrs. Ma reacted quickly and winked at Ma Jicheng and her sons, asking them to block everyone's view and secretly take out the note from the bun.
When Zhan took a look, he actually said that the fact that they had been replaced by the Yao family had been revealed to the emperor?!
"Mom?!" Uncle Ma was excited and just about to speak, Mrs. Ma glanced at him and shut him up.
