Xile immediately walked down and took the special "imperial certificate" from Murong Haitang's hand.
Seeing Wu Yuan's actions, the ministers were a little confused.
What kind of royal decree is it that needs to be kept so secret?
Judging from Wu Yuan's reaction just now, the ministers knew that they did not intend to disclose the contents of the imperial decree.
After Xile walked up with the "imperial certificate", he scolded the eunuchs beside Emperor Wu: "You all stand down."
The eunuchs quickly looked at Emperor Wu.
This time, Emperor Wu didn't do anything. He just waved his hand and asked the eunuchs to retreat.
Then Xile personally laid the woman's bellyband flat on Emperor Wu's desk.
Emperor Wu also came over and saw the blood letter on it at a glance.
…
This was the daughter of the Luo family, the governor of Longjiang Prefecture, named Zhiqin. In the first ten days of the Chou month of the Gengzi year, troops from the Longjiang Prefecture came to kill my father and rape my mother. All the female relatives in the house were spared, either raped or killed. The six-year-old brother was nailed to the wall, the fetus in the aunt's belly was picked out with a sharp knife, and the entire Luo family was like a hell.
Shen Xiangning, the adopted daughter of the Luo family, and I were lucky enough to escape, and then we learned that my uncle had colluded with the capital to take over my father's position as governor.
Xiang Ning and I were hunted by traitors, and we hid in the grass in the mountains and became bandits.
Although he was a bandit, he also robbed the rich and gave to the poor, and never did any evil.
However, one day they encountered fierce bandits and led the crowd to fight. Although they retreated from the enemy, their identity was exposed.
Knowing that disaster was imminent, I wrote this imperial edict and entrusted Xiang Ning to the capital, asking only for mercy from heaven and for Your Majesty to make a decision for the wronged souls of the Luo family, in order to prove the way of heaven.
…
After reading the content above, Emperor Wu's face was extremely angry.
"This is unreasonable. It is lawless and the crime is unpardonable."
Emperor Wu shouted angrily.
The ministers were awestruck. Even when facing Wu Yuan, Emperor Wu didn't seem so angry.
What kind of imperial edict is this? It can actually make Emperor Wu so angry.
"Come here, I..." Emperor Wu seemed to be giving an order.
But he was suddenly interrupted by Wu Yuan, "Father, don't be anxious."
Emperor Wu was stunned for a moment, but he calmed down a lot. Then he realized that the current situation in Longjiang Mansion was very complicated, and even if he wanted to encircle and suppress it, he would not be able to muster the strength.
Then he looked at Wu Yuan below and asked, "Do you have a way to deal with this matter?"
Emperor Wu actually took the initiative to ask about Wu Yuan. Now the ministers wanted to know what the imperial certificate was.
Emperor Wu clearly wanted to issue an edict just now, but after being interrupted by Wu Yuan, he seemed to have great concerns.
What kind of person could make even the mighty Emperor Wu feel worried?
What makes people laugh or cry is that the father and son, who were at war with each other just now, are now playing charades in tacit understanding.
Faced with Emperor Wu's question, Wu Yuan also nodded, "Originally, I planned to postpone this matter until the invasion of Tianli Kingdom was resolved before dealing with him, but I have thought a lot in the past few days. If so, I’m afraid that the problem there will only become more serious, and in the end it may very well be the straw that breaks the camel’s back.”
Emperor Wu nodded slightly. Perhaps Emperor Wu had a more thorough understanding of this matter than Wu Yuan.
"Tell me, how do you want to deal with it?"
But Wu Yuan took advantage of the situation and said: "This is what I want to say to my father. I am willing to issue another military order to completely solve the problem there. If this fails, I will be demoted to a commoner and leave the Dawu royal family."
"Huh?" Emperor Wu was a little surprised.
You must know that the problem of Longjiang Mansion, although it seems, is far less than the threat posed by Tianli Kingdom.
But it's too complicated, and it's much more troublesome than war.
But this time, Emperor Wu was completely moved.
To be fair, whether it is Longjiang Mansion or Tianli Kingdom, it is an urgent problem for Wu Yuan now. If Wu Yuan can really solve it, it will be enough to make him guilty and meritorious.
Therefore, Emperor Wu did not hesitate much, "Okay, I agree."
Although the ministers didn't know what Emperor Wu and Wu Yuan were talking about, the current result was surprising.
Emperor Wu really agreed, really promised to let Wu Yuan go for the time being.
Xin Ruyan and Murong Haitang finally felt relieved.
Wu Yuan didn't feel much, it was all expected.
And that alone is not enough. Now that everything has been taken over by him, how can we not get some benefits?
But before Wu Yuan could speak, Emperor Wu said: "I promised you, but I can only give you a thousand men at most. You know the reason why."
Looking at Emperor Wu's posture, he expected that Wu Yuan might open his mouth wide.
"A thousand people?" Wu Yuan also weighed.
Originally he wanted three thousand people, but looking at Emperor Wu's appearance, he was obviously on guard against him.
That's all, a thousand people, just a thousand people.
"Father, there is no problem with a thousand people, but I still have one request."
Emperor Wu seemed to be in a much better mood, at least Wu Yuan's compromise method satisfied him.
"Come and listen."
Wu Yuan immediately said: "I'm not polite here. I would like to ask my father to reinstate me as the crown prince."
Hearing that Wu Yuan dared to make such a request at this time, the ministers panicked again.
Emperor Wu's attitude has just improved, can't you wait and talk about it?
Wasn't it obvious that Emperor Wu felt that he was coveting the throne again by being so anxious to return to the throne?
Even Prime Minister Wen shook his head and talked bitterly for a while, saying that he had a good deck of cards, but he was beaten to pieces again.
But what no one expected was that Emperor Wu agreed to this request without any hesitation.
"No one but you would dare to sit on the throne of the Crown Prince, so I'll just leave it to you."
Emperor Wu's words made the ministers feel that everything before was like a dream.
What kind of agreement was reached between Wu Yuan and Emperor Wu?
Emperor Wu actually gave in like this, he was totally different from before.
But it should be said that nowadays, as long as Wu Yuan is still alive, there is really no prince who dares to covet the position of crown prince.
If you want to be a prince, you have to see if you can compare to Wu Yuan.
Not to mention, Wu Yuan could even assassinate Emperor Wu. Whoever becomes the prince will have to die?
But Wu Yuan knew that the reason why Emperor Wu agreed so happily was because this status was conducive to his external affairs.
Furthermore, if these two things are not handled well, he, the crown prince, will not be able to return to the capital. To put it bluntly, he will no longer pose any threat to Emperor Wu.
Of course Emperor Wu would be happy not to fulfill his choice, Wu Yuan did not say anything but thanked him generously.
Not to mention, at least now he and Emperor Wu were completely open to each other and talking openly, and there was no longer any suspicion as before.
This way of getting along is much more comfortable than before.
