Fourth Master immediately ruled out Lao Ba in his mind. Could it be the same as what happened last time, with Prince Zhi controlling it behind the scenes?
Then he denied such speculation. Prince Zhi was not so mean. Moreover, Prince Zhi's filial piety towards the emperor was not fake. He wanted to deal with Lao Ba, but he had already destroyed Lao Ba in an upright manner last time.
.Why bother to go through an extra procedure? Therefore, this must not be the work of Prince Zhi.
Who else could it be if he wasn't Prince Zhi?
Is it Fourteen? Fourteen did not have such courage. He jumped up and down, but not enough to use the emperor as a raft.
I was in a daze when I heard Lao Jiu shouting: "Old Fourteen, you are so mean!"
Obviously, Lao Jiu doesn't believe that this is Lao Ba's doing. Isn't this asking for death? He just made the emperor unhappy, how can he dare to tease the tiger's beard now? Even if Lao Ba doesn't care about himself, how can he still ignore the good concubine in the palace?
Empress and Ba Fujin? Therefore, this matter must have nothing to do with Lao Ba.
But those who have conflicts of interest with Lao Ba are Prince Zhi, Lao Si and Lao Si.
Prince Zhi was imprisoned, so he was the first to exclude him. Moreover, Prince Zhi had always had prestige among their brothers, and they would never believe that Prince Zhi would do such a thing.
And Master Jiu has never thought about the fourth child at all. No matter how unpleasant the fourth child is, he still has a good character. He doesn't want to see others doing illegal things, so he will only be more harsh on himself. Such a despicable behavior
, it has nothing to do with him at all.
Therefore, it can only be fourteen. What can't fourteen do to achieve his goal? This person has no bottom line at all. He is a complete speculator. This is to completely suppress Lao Ba.
It is the same principle as when Prince Zhi falls, only Lao Ba can really stand up straight. Only when Lao Ba falls, can Lao Fourteen really stand on his own feet.
Therefore, in this hall, after Master Jiu shouted so loudly, 90% of people thought that this was done by Old Fourteenth.
Fourteen's face turned pale and his legs became weak.
Kangxi, on the other hand, covered his chest. No matter who did it, it was all done by his own son. How could it not be chilling?
Lao Jiu said it was Fourteenth who did it, but he didn't believe it. He was more inclined to believe that it was Lao Ba who directed and acted.
On the one hand, Lao Ba hates Shi Shi because of what happened last time. On the other hand, Lao Ba wants to make people believe that this is all Shi Shi’s conspiracy. It’s best for me, the emperor, to believe all this, even if I don’t believe it.
, but in the hearts of the officials, Lao Ba is still the wise king. He has even become a sad wise king, a wise king who was framed by his brothers. If I see through everything he has done and continue to reprimand him, then,
His situation may not be more difficult than it is now. It's just that he has another tragic card to be suppressed by the emperor.
The image of a tragic and virtuous king who was favored by hundreds of officials, was jealous of the emperor, and was not tolerated by his brothers will be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
He has engraved the habit of managing reputation into his bones.
He really has no father-son affection for me, the emperor.
Everyone watched as the emperor clutched his chest and fell back with a pale face.
This time it really scared everyone.
Li Dequan supported the emperor and said, "Mr. Xuan."
Ma Qi and Zhang Tingyu, as ministers to the study room, can naturally come forward.
The fourth master still said: "Third brother, among the brothers, you are the oldest now. Go up and watch."
Third Master's legs are weak. If the Emperor really has an emergency here, it will be completely chaotic.
The fourth master's words reminded him that the emperor was ill. Although there was a taboo, there was no reason why no one came forward. If they all came forward, it would be too many people and things to do, but he should be fine by himself. Besides,
Now, I am the oldest among these royal brothers. It is really my responsibility to do so.
The third master shook his legs and stepped forward tremblingly.
The emperor was first placed in the inner room at the back, and only the princes and nobles of the third rank and above were left behind. The others had already been driven away.
Fourteen was even more frightened. He really didn't do this. Even if he wanted to harm Lao Ba, he would have to wait until he gained real power. Now, apart from Lao Ba's verbal promise, he didn't see anything real.
Are you crazy or stupid to do such a thing?
But the way everyone looked at him made him feel that something was wrong. It turned out that so many people believed what Lao Jiu said.
He knelt there, not daring to get up at all.
The fifth master scolded the ninth master, "You go on your knees too." This bastard thing, the situation is still unclear, you are so eager to complain about Lao Ba, what do others think? How can you be so sure that Lao Ba did not do it.
After all, Lao Jiu is still too young and has no idea how deep the water is inside?
Master Jiu couldn't refute Master Wu's face. In addition, the emperor's appearance just now was indeed scary, and the shouting he ignored just now was indeed inappropriate. So he could only glare at Fourteen fiercely and kneel down.
beside him.
There are two princes and elder brothers kneeling in this hall. Naturally, these ministers will be yelled at to stay back as much as they can.
At this time, no one really dared to take the lead.
The emperor was so angry that he fainted for three whole days. The fourth master felt that the emperor's energy was not as good as before.
When the emperor woke up, Master Ba rushed over from the capital in a dusty state. He came in and knelt down to plead guilty without saying a word of unnecessary injustice.
But the more this happens, the more people feel that Ba Ye is aggrieved.
Who would do such a stupid thing after being rejected by the emperor? This clearly shows that it was not Master Ba’s handiwork.
Ba Ye was wrongly accused, which deeply penetrated into the hearts of many people.
The Fourth Master squinted his eyes to look at the Eighth Master. This man's grasp of the human heart and character could be said to be at its peak.
The emperor leaned on the couch without looking at the eighth master, "I and Yinzhu have a perfect relationship as father and son."
The eighth master was also very shocked. He never expected the emperor to say such a word without any room for maneuver. "Emperor Ama..."
The fourth master still believes in the emperor's judgment. The emperor has confirmed Lao Ba's decision.
There was no need to interrogate or probe, the emperor insisted that it was Lao Ba. The emperor would not interrogate those who gave away the birds or raised the birds. He could guess it without asking. In the first trial, it was definitely Lao Fourteen who did it.
But in fact, Old Fourteen really didn't have the courage.
Looking at everyone's stunned eyes, Fourth Master thought to himself that at least Lao Ba had succeeded in part. Because everyone felt aggrieved for him and felt that it was not worth it. Everyone couldn't help but guess that now that Ba Ye was suppressed like this, what would happen to him?
Was it possible that the eighth master was wronged in the same way when he was promoted to the crown prince last time?
The Fourth Master somewhat admired the Eighth Master for his methods of playing with and manipulating people's hearts.
Everyone had been guarding the emperor in the hall for three days, and it was only now that they were allowed to leave.
The emperor did not say how to deal with Fourteen, nor did he say how to deal with Lao Jiu. After kneeling for three days, these two people were held up and left with everyone.
As soon as the fourth master entered the door, Honghui greeted him. "Amma, are you okay?" In the past few days, there was no news about the palace. If these uncles hadn't come out, he would have thought that Ah Ma
Something happened to Ma too.
"It's okay." The fourth master's expression became more gentle, "I asked people to close the door of the house and no one will be seen."
Honghui was stunned for a moment and quickly responded. It seemed that something had happened, something serious.
At first, Honghui didn't know who his mother didn't want to see, but when Uncle Fourteen came to ask for permission in a few days, he knew.
"Uncle Fourteenth, after Ama came back to take a bath, he went into the Zen room. Don't let anyone disturb you." Honghui couldn't resist Fourteenth at the door, so he just waited to invite him in. "After taking a bath and fasting, he went into the Zen room to chant sutras.
If Uncle Fourteen is really in an emergency, can my nephew go in and call?" Honghui naturally knew that the emperor was unwell. Every night, he and Hongyun would copy two volumes of scripture before going to bed. Amma wanted to recite sutras to the emperor.
The prayer is true, but it is also true that I don’t want to see Uncle Fourteen. I am praying for the Emperor. If I don’t believe that Uncle Fourteen dares to disturb me, I have to call Amma out.
Fourteen was stunned, knowing what the fourth child was doing? At this time, one had to admire the fourth child's determination.
"Forget it." Fourteen stood up and said, "Don't bother your Amma, just tell him to recite sutras properly." There was a bit of dissatisfaction in his tone.
Honghui just pretended that he couldn't tell, and politely sent Shi Shi out in a good voice.
He looked at the back of his fourteenth uncle and thought to himself, this uncle is now like a headless fly, bumping around. In fact, at this moment, he doesn't know what else he wants. It's all because of his unwillingness to support him.
If she keeps acting stupid like this, Amma's patience will be completely exhausted.
Honghui went to the meditation room. What he just said was indeed not a lie. Amma did enter the meditation room after bathing and fasting. Every day, he reported the matter to Amma through the window. He believed that Amma could hear it.
Just ask Amma to do what she knows.
The fourth master naturally heard Honghui's words inside. He was indeed praying for the emperor. Because he discovered a phenomenon that day, the emperor's hands were shaking badly. The emperor was really old.
As soon as I lay down this time, for an old man who is old and still has to work hard, such an injury would probably severely damage his vitality.
Fourteen came here now, which proved that he was anxious. He was really anxious. The emperor did not reprimand him, but in people's hearts, he was blamed.
Fourth Master snorted in his heart, he brought this upon himself.
He really regards Lao Ba as a Bodhisattva. Lao Ba may feel that he has lost his sacred heart, but he wants to win everyone’s ‘heart’.
As long as the Eighth Master is still the Eight Wise King in the hearts of the officials, then he still has a chance.
He dealt with Old Fourteen with one hand and cleared away the suspicions with the other.
He wanted everyone to feel that his "virtue" had attracted the emperor's taboo, and that he had been wronged and suppressed.
His abilities and talents made the emperor have to be on guard.
The emperor said that Lao Ba was 'sexually abused', which was actually objective.
If the emperor really treats him like he did Prince Zhi and puts him in a trap, then the emperor will really be guilty of persecuting the 'virtuous king'.
He had calculated this accurately before he dared to take action.
Lao Jiu, on the other hand, acted as a divine assister. (. )
