The second prince was attacked and the matter has been suppressed.
All parties do not want the matter to be made public and the impact to be expanded.
In comparison, Li Zijin's story is known to more people.
At noon, Li Xiangyang had completed his morning inspection mission, and now he had free time at his disposal.
Princess Nishang has been raised in Jiangnan for two years and has recently returned to the capital. Today is the first time she went out to play.
After meeting Li Xiangyang, she also wanted to see her brother.
Li Xiangyang stopped by and took Princess Nishang to Prince Cheng's Mansion.
Nishang was sitting on the carriage, and Li Xiangyang was riding outside. The princess inside opened the curtain and asked: "I heard that Zijin was beaten. The court has been investigating for seven days but there is no result. Is it true?"
"There have been so many notices posted, how could they be false?"
"This matter makes no sense!" Nishang said doubtfully, "It stands to reason that a batterer should be investigated in the palace, but it can't be found out in minutes? Why is there no news after seven days of taking off the clothes? Moreover, Zijin was beaten, and Er
Brother, you don’t care at all? If you investigate, who doesn’t know? I haven’t seen that kid Zijin for more than two years. On the first day I returned to Beijing, I heard that he was beaten. I feel angry just thinking about it.
.No matter what background the character is this time, they must handle it well."
"Second brother, are you going to investigate?" Li Xiangyang asked with a calm smile, "Don't embarrass second brother. The capital is not the same as it was two years ago. We don't even know who the assassin was, so how can we still have the energy to track down other people?"
thing?"
Nishang looked suspicious: "The assassin just now? Does the second brother know who it is? It's okay to coax Li Zijin."
"What? You still don't believe it?"
"If the second brother didn't know who the assassin was, how could he be so relaxed now? How could he take me with him to find Zijin? The second brother is obviously very confident and already knows the truth of the matter. Tell me, what is going on?
?”
Li Xiangyang thought for a while and felt that such a small role was not a major secret, so he replied in a low voice: "The identity of the killer has been found, and he is from the Metropolitan Procuratorate."
"Metropolitan Procuratorate? How is this possible?" Nishang's expression was very shocked and anxious.
Che said, "Didn't the Metropolitan Procuratorate not take sides?"
"How can we say that the Metropolitan Procuratorate did not take sides? Although the Metropolitan Procuratorate's attitude is vague, it is close to Prince Yong's palace, has friendship with the Prime Minister, and had an unclear relationship with Li Xin in the past, and it even helped people in the palace.
Don't be too busy. But they have never helped your second brother, not even a little bit of help. When you say you don't take sides, it means you haven't made it clear who you want to help, but who can't understand what the Metropolitan Procuratorate is doing? Their attitude
It’s very clear that you are going against me!”
As he said this, Li Xiangyang's eyes flashed with displeasure, and his hand holding the reins tightened.
Nishang prides herself on being smart and likes to analyze the situation in the court, but she never thought of this deeper meaning.
Now listening to the second brother's words, Nishang suddenly realized. The fact is as Li Xiangyang said, although the relationship between the Metropolitan Procuratorate and all the forces is very ambiguous, and they did not clearly indicate which side they are on, the Metropolitan Procuratorate helped everyone else, but
The only one who didn't help Li Xiangyang was.
This means that no matter how the Metropolitan Procuratorate acts, it is impossible for them to be on the same line as Li Xiangyang.
Nishang gently held the hair scattered between her eyebrows: "In the current situation, it seems that the second brother is the leader, but that is without counting the Metropolitan Procuratorate, because no one knows the attitude of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and they all regard them as
A neutral force was formed. The second brother had long seen the attitude of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. It was impossible to stand on his side, so he naturally became his enemy. Therefore, the second brother sighed and shook his head on the turret, knowing very well that he
The situation is not very good.”
"Hmph..." Li Xiangyang raised the corner of his mouth and glanced at Nishang, "I have been away from the capital for two years, and I can't understand this simple truth. My sister's homework has been wasted."
Nishang didn't feel at all that what she was talking about was a very serious and dangerous topic, and she stuck out her tongue easily, like a student who got the wrong answer in an exam.
"Now that I have said this, I will ask you one more question. Now that you know the current situation, you can continue to analyze the current situation of my second brother."
"If the Metropolitan Procuratorate is included, then the current situation in the capital must be reconsidered. But even if the Metropolitan Procuratorate is now in the middle to check and balance, without the suppression of the eldest brother, the second brother should be confident now. After all, there was only the second brother back then.
I can compete with my eldest brother, and now I have attracted some of his partisans.
The second brother is not worried about the present, but is worried about the future. There are too many forces in the capital, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate is interspersed among them and has connections with all parties, causing the Metropolitan Procuratorate's power to be dispersed. But as time goes by, these capital forces
They will inevitably disappear one by one, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate will have fewer choices. If only the second brother and the other force are left in the end, then the Metropolitan Procuratorate can only fully support the other side, so that the pressure faced by the second brother will be even greater than now.
It’s several times bigger.”
Li Xiangyang nodded: "The Metropolitan Procuratorate is not scary, the scary thing is the people who control the Metropolitan Procuratorate. The chief minister who is about the same age as you may be almost the same as your sister in terms of intelligence, but he has a huge advantage over her.
"
Nishang was quite dissatisfied after hearing this: "What is it?"
"He is a man! In this world, when men are in power, they can do whatever they want, but women have all kinds of restrictions after all. Just like my sister, even if she has all kinds of ideas, it is difficult to put them to use."
"Second brother, when you say that, don't you just want me to help you!" Nishang smiled, "In fact, there is no need for such a provocation. Among so many brothers, my second brother and I are the closest. If I want to help, I will eventually become a helper."
Second brother’s.”
"Just like now, what does my sister think I should do?"
"Since the second brother is worried that there are fewer and fewer opponents in the capital, then we should maintain the status quo and keep a thin line in everything. There is no need to kill them all. How can the second brother ask such a simple question in such a big circle?"
Nishang said it very easily, but Li Xiangyang frowned and said to himself: "Maintain the status quo?"
"Can't you understand?" Nishang asked curiously, but received no reply, "Oh, it's impossible to return to one's heart in the world. All you have to do is be the strongest. What the second brother wants to fight for is not invincibility in the world, but coming from all directions."
Li Xiangyang was still deep in thought when suddenly someone from the front announced: "His Royal Highness the Second Prince, Prince Cheng's residence has arrived."
Li Xiangyang finally came back to his senses and saw Li Zijin coming to greet him with his retainers. He said goodbye to Nishang and dismounted to greet him.
The two brothers bumped into each other, and before they had time to say a few polite words, Li Xiangyang couldn't help but take a breath when he saw Li Zijin's face, and became furious: "Who on earth was so cruel? Seven days have passed, and his face is so beautiful
The swelling has not gone away! Someone, please investigate this matter thoroughly. I want the results today!"
