"Your Majesty! I heard that the old master and his wife treat each other as guests, and often accompany her to Fayuan Temple to listen to Dharma meetings. Life is indeed leisurely and contented. Perhaps the old master also wants to relieve the emperor's worries, so he wants to accept a disciple. This matter is probably a matter of Misunderstanding, Your Majesty, you still understand him."
Jiang Yunshou, the left minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, suddenly came out of the queue to plead for the boss.
However, if you go out at this time, you will be suspected of changing your direction according to the wind.
However, people with a keen mind understood his intentions instantly.
At Fayuan Temple, everyone knew that Mrs. Taifu liked to worship Buddha.
However, there is a wife in the court who also likes to worship Buddha, which is really a coincidence.
The emperor's face gradually darkened, and then he said to Zhu Yue: "Teacher is just listening to the affairs on the side, and he can also offer some good suggestions."
However, his eyes passed over several princes intentionally or unintentionally, and his eyes passed over the fourth prince and the second prince.
Zhu Yue's heart sank and he slowly walked aside.
His current situation is a bit embarrassing. He cannot be in the second class and can only stay aside, but he can't put it off.
After finally waiting until the court meeting dispersed, Zhu Yue felt that the two sides were fighting, and he couldn't hold on any longer.
Rejecting the courtesy officer's support, he walked a few steps quickly and caught up with Su Jinxun.
"Congratulations to Mr. Su, the rise of the Su family is just around the corner!"
He whispered something, then quickly passed Su Jinxun and walked straight forward.
Su Jinxun was slightly startled, and then his eyes flashed with light.
Yes! The Su family must rise. Before he takes office, he must push the Su family up.
The Su family cannot become unknown in his hands, let alone decline in the hands of his descendants.
Thinking of the news from his old son, he couldn't help but feel excited and couldn't calm down for a long time.
The Su family must have a lineage to rise to the top. He gave up this old life to let the Su family rush to the clouds by stepping on those people.
Su Jinxun lay awake for several nights before finally making up his mind.
He wanted to show those people that they, the Su family, were not lambs that everyone could bully and slaughter, but wolves, tigers and leopards waiting for the opportunity.
The distinction between direct descendants and concubines is nothing.
It doesn’t matter if it’s a black or white cat, as long as it can catch mice, it’s a good cat. At this moment, he was so proud that he shook his sleeves and walked out of the hall with his head held high.
When Zhu Yue returned to his house, his brows were furrowed. He was pacing back and forth in the study, with countless thoughts in his mind.
It wasn't because of Meng Lingxi that I was worried, but because of the emperor's attitude in the early court.
This attitude is thought-provoking! He knows the emperor. The more lightly the emperor handles this matter, the more he cares about it. He has begun to doubt it.
The first person to be suspected of having sex is the fourth prince, that’s for sure.
After all, their branch is from the same lineage as the branch from Fuguogongfu. Although they are related for countless generations, they all have the surname Zhu.
The emperor would have reason to suspect that they were joining forces.
But the way the emperor glanced at the princes before going to court made him feel lingering fear.
According to his understanding of the emperor, the emperor's next suspect should be the second prince. After all, the second prince is now very powerful, and he has indeed become a bit arrogant recently.
As for the prince, they are not very close at the moment. The prince has been dormant for more than two years, and now he acts more cautiously and his temperament has become much calmer.
Even if the emperor sends people to investigate, the relationship between them will not be found.
Because he has not yet had a close relationship with the prince.
There is only one last step left in his plan, but will the emperor really act as he thinks?
As Zhu Yue had guessed, as soon as the emperor returned to the imperial study, he ordered people to find out the secret whereabouts of several princes during this period.
"Let's go see what my good sons are doing recently, especially the fourth and second sons, they seem to be very busy?"
The emperor looked at the imperial pen in front of him and seemed to be talking to himself.
However, a person suddenly walked out of the darkness of the imperial study. This person was dressed in mysterious clothes and had a cold face.
He saluted the emperor, then turned to leave.
"Wait a minute! Let's check the prince again! I've been neglecting him a bit in the past two years. Maybe he feels resentful and does some stupid things."
The emperor closed his eyes slightly and leaned back on the chair behind him.
The man accepted the order and quickly left the imperial study without alerting the guards at the door.
...
"Unexpectedly, Cheng Yaojin was killed, and the Su family managed to escape without any danger. His Highness thought that the Su family was already in decline and was at the mercy of others."
The boy in red lay on the couch and murmured.
"Your Highness, Su has ruined our plan, what should we do next?"
A man stood respectfully aside, bowing and waiting for instructions.
"Su! I'm looking down on you. This move is brilliant and very bold. As for this plan, it's not over yet. We're still proceeding according to the plan."
Cheng Yaojin appeared on the way, but His Highness was not angry because he discovered that the Su family actually had a secret.
"Someone must have tipped them off, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to think of countermeasures so quickly. Who is it?"
His Highness pondered, it couldn't be Zhu Yue anyway, that old man was also plotting against the Su family, but he had not noticed the Su family before.
"I asked you to check on Su Wenqing two days ago? Did you find anything unusual?" His Highness suddenly remembered this matter and asked.
The man shook his head and said, "There is nothing unusual. Su Wenqing has been staying in the old house during this period and drank twice with friends during this period. Those bad friends have all been checked and they are not even descendants of aristocratic families.
But they are very sharp-tongued and have a very flamboyant personality, and many people around them are very familiar with them."
His Highness sneered, these are fair-weather friends, who brag everywhere on weekdays, but can't count on any of them when something happens. Su Wenqing actually likes to associate with such people.
However, His Highness is still used to being cautious.
"You pay close attention and make sure there is nothing unusual about these people. Some people hide very deeply and are simply not what they seem."
His Highness thought for a long time and then asked: "Where are the three juniors I brought?"
The man told about the current situation of Su Yizhao and others. When he mentioned that Su Yizhao went to the teahouse to drink tea after taking the exam, he didn't know what happened, but he left in a hurry without waiting for the other two brothers.
"Have you found out the reason?" He sat up suddenly, and then stared at the man in front of him like a hawk.
"I found it and said it was a letter sent by a beggar. After reading the letter, he left in a hurry. However, I don't know the content of the letter. I only know that after Su Yizhao returned, he went to Su Wenqing's study. The two talked in secret for more than a month.
Hours later, Su Yizhao left."
"Su Yizhao? But that four-bedroom concubine?" His Highness pondered deeply, and then he remembered such a prominent figure.
This is the key figure in this plan, but His Highness has not taken him seriously before.
