On this day, Shen Yi accompanied the emperor in the palace, quietly waiting for the news.
However, the emperor's energy was obviously running low. Before noon, he was helped by Shen Yi to rest on the bed, and he quickly fell asleep.
As for Shen Yi, he waited until the afternoon, until Luo Yong came into the palace to deliver the news. Then he stood up, found Gao Ming, and said, "Eunuch Gao, there is nothing important anymore. I will go back now."
"When the prince returns to Beijing, I will come to the palace."
Gao Ming lowered his head slightly, leaned forward and said, "Yes."
Shen Yi thought for a while and said again: "When His Majesty wakes up, you can convey a message to His Majesty for me, just say..."
"Children are angry. Please don't be too angry, Your Majesty."
It is difficult to estimate the bloody nature of young people.
For example, when Emperor Hong De and Shen Yi were still young, the two passionate young people first planned the Southeast, and then relied on their passion to build their current career.
His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, is only about twenty years old this year.
At this age, he was indeed full of passion. It was this passion that exceeded Shen Yi and the emperor's expectations.
However, there is only this little passion left.
His approach was quite stupid in both the eyes of Emperor Hong De and Shen Yi.
Because the benefits and risks are completely out of proportion.
Not to mention whether he could kill King Wu, even if he succeeded, he would just vent his anger on himself and not hurt the emperor and Shen Yi at all.
After all, the emperor had other sons.
And Shen Yi's daughter has not yet married King Wu.
Regardless of the success or failure of the matter, His Highness the Crown Prince's position may be difficult to preserve.
Gao Ming responded and bowed his head respectfully: "We will send the Marquis away."
"No need."
Shen Yi slightly cupped his hands, stretched, and said with a smile: "I haven't slept all night. I thought something big would happen, so I never wanted to end it hastily. The high-ranking father-in-law in the palace served more snacks, and I went home to catch up on my sleep."
Gao Ming nodded slightly.
When Mr. Shen left Ganlu Hall and walked out of the palace, he was surrounded by several prime ministers from Zhongshu as soon as he arrived in the imperial city. Prime Minister Song Yuan pulled Shen Yi's sleeves with an anxious look on his face: "Taibao, we heard that the prince yesterday I left the palace overnight and took some soldiers with me to go south, what happened?"
Shen Yi looked at the several prime ministers, with a tired smile on his face: "Don't worry, gentlemen, nothing will happen anymore."
"His Royal Highness, you will be back soon."
Having said this, he paused and said, "But..."
"What is the explanation for this matter? I have no way to tell you now. Everything will have to wait until the prince comes back and your majesty will ask clearly before he can announce it to the world."
Several prime ministers looked at each other.
Zhang Jian looked at Shen Yi with a complicated expression.
Mr. Shen raised his hands to everyone and said, "My dear gentlemen, I am really sleepy. I can't talk about anything until Shen wakes up."
After saying that, Shen Yi bowed and handed over his hands, then turned and left.
At this time, Emperor Hong De of Ganlu Palace also woke up. He looked at Luo Yong who was kneeling on the ground and asked, "When did the Di News Agency get involved?"
Luo Yong kowtowed and said: "Back to Your Majesty, when it was almost dawn yesterday morning, Lord Shen felt that something was wrong, so he asked the Di Reporting Department to send someone to report to His Highness the King of Wu. He asked His Highness the King of Wu to be careful and take precautions. It is best to go I will hide in Baoding Mansion for a few days."
The emperor narrowed his eyes and slowly exhaled: "It seems that Shen Qing is confident."
As he spoke, he looked at Luo Yong and asked, "Where is King Wu now?"
Luo Yong shook his head: "I'm not sure, but according to the time, I should have arrived near Baoding Fucheng."
The Sansi Yamen of North Zhili is in Baoding, especially Dusi Yamen, which has a large number of soldiers. With an order from Shen Yi, the governor of North Zhili, Baoding Mansion can protect King Zhou Quan of Wu.
Upon hearing this, His Majesty the Emperor breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Go..."
"Together with the inner guards, the prince..."
"Haosheng brought it back."
Luo Yong kowtowed respectfully: "I obey your orders!"
…………
Another day and night passed.
It was not until the evening of the next day that Shen Yi was invited into the palace again.
At this time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was already kneeling down in the Manna Hall, with his head lowered and silent.
His Majesty the Emperor looked unhappy. After seeing Shen Yi coming, he slowly said: "Shen Qing is here."
Mr. Shen bowed his head respectfully and saluted: "Your Majesty."
As he spoke, he bowed his head slightly to the prince again: "Your Highness, the prince."
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was originally kneeling on the ground. Hearing this, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Shen Yi. He gritted his teeth and said, "Don't you think you are too hypocritical to still call Marquis Shen like this at this time?"
He was now a broken man. The respect he had for Shen Yi in the past was gone. His eyes when he looked at Shen Yi were full of resentment.
His Majesty the Emperor was furious and slapped the table with his hand, but his face turned red and he could not say a word.
Mr. Shen glanced at the emperor with some worry, then turned to look at the prince, sighed and said: "Your Highness is the prince for one day, and I am the prince for the same day."
The prince looked straight at Shen Yi.
"Marquis Shen left the city a few days ago. What did you do?"
Mr. Shen still looked calm: "Return to Your Highness, I have been ordered to inspect the Miyun garrison."
"The troops stationed in Miyun are completely inactive."
The prince pounded the ground hard: "You are plotting against me!"
"You have forced Gu into this situation step by step, you traitor!"
"shut up!"
His Majesty the Emperor finally came to his senses. He looked at Gao Ming and gritted his teeth and said, "Take this traitor back to Duanben Palace and put someone under strict supervision. No one is allowed to visit without my order!"
Eunuch Gao quickly lowered his head and said yes. He turned to look at Eunuch Xiao Huai, who was also serving in the palace. Eunuch Xiao leaned over and said, "You are here to serve His Majesty. I'll just go on my way."
Gao Ming didn't say anything, so he acquiesced.
Soon, the prince was taken down.
His Majesty the Emperor managed to sit up straight, still shaking with anger.
"It's so stupid, so stupid!"
His hands trembled, and his voice also trembled: "How could I have such a stupid son!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a young eunuch hurried in and knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, the Queen is here..."
"No, no!"
Although His Majesty the Emperor is still weak, he seems a little manic now.
"Let her go back and forth wherever she comes from!"
"yes."
After sending the queen away, His Majesty the Emperor couldn't help but pant. It took a long time before he recovered. He waved to Shen Yi, who quickly stepped forward.
The emperor looked at Shen Yi and sighed: "The fourth child is injured, and it's not serious."
When Shen Yi heard this, he was shocked. He lost his voice and said: "How is it possible? The Di Reporting Department informed His Highness King Wu at least half an hour in advance. His Highness King Wu had enough time to safely evacuate to Baoding."
When Shen Yi ordered Di Bao Si to leave, the Prince's troops had not yet moved.
Therefore, when Luo Yong reported, Shen Yi had already concluded that Wu Wang Li Jian would be fine.
His Majesty the Emperor closed his eyes with a somewhat painful expression.
He waved his hand and asked Gao Ming and others to retreat further, and then said in a hoarse voice: "This is the problem."
"One of my two sons is not very smart, and the other..."
"A little too smart."
Hearing this, Shen Yi realized what he said and suddenly said: "Your Majesty means that King Wu was injured on purpose..."
"Um."
The emperor closed his eyes and said: "The inner guard reported that when he went to Baoding, he was dragging his feet and moving very slowly."
"The intention is very obvious. He wanted to get hurt and... to be convicted of the prince's murder of his younger brother."
Having said this, the emperor opened his eyes and said coldly: "But he is not good at horseback riding. He was almost chased by the prince. The arrow behind him missed him and he panicked."
"Falled."
When Shen Yi heard this, he also frowned.
When the Pegasus was galloping, he fell off the horse, which was not a minor injury. Xue Wei's body was so old that he suffered internal injuries from the fall, and it took him several years to recover.
Shen Yi was silent for a long time, then looked around and asked, "Are you planning to send an edict to King Fu to Beijing?"
The emperor opened his eyes and looked at Shen Yi, and shook his head feebly: "Boss...it won't work."
"He, the blessed king... may not have a stable career, so we can't consider him."
"Let's take a look first to see how the fourth child is injured. There will be a report from Baoding Mansion soon."
Speaking of this, the emperor looked at Shen Yi and asked, "Did Shen Qing teach him this method?"
Shen Yi shook his head.
"Your Majesty, you know me well. If I had arranged this matter, King Wu's injury would not have been so clumsy."
When the emperor heard this, he smiled helplessly.
