Time-traveling Bastards Are Politics

Chapter 79 Jade Pendant
The Seventh Prince rushed straight into the hall with a group of people, and shouted at Feng Yong: "Didn't you say you were injured? You weren't there either! Pretending to be!"

Seeing the appearance of the seventh prince, the emperor shook his head helplessly, and angrily reprimanded: "Old Seven! You went up to the hall with your troops and horse weapons, and made a lot of noise in the hall, how unbecoming! Kneel down for me!"

Seeing this, the seventh prince quickly knelt down to say goodbye: "My son, I heard that the prince and fourth brother were assassinated, and I was so anxious that I brought weapons to the palace and asked my father to forgive me..."

"Hurry up and get the people out! It's noisy, what about the vegetable market?" the prince shouted.

At this time, Wei Huaqing said something that changed the atmosphere instantly: "It's strange...why is Lao Qi okay? Could it be...was Lao Qi not assassinated last night?"

"Nonsense! How can anyone curse someone to be stabbed!" The prince quickly reprimanded him.

But after Wei Huaqing finished speaking, the emperor became thoughtful: "Old Seven... didn't anything happen in your house last night?"

"I don't know what the father means? There was nothing going on at the son's house last night..." The seventh prince was taken aback by the question.

At this time, Wei Huaqing's confidant took out a jade pendant from his bosom, handed it to Wei Huaqing, whispered a few words into Wei Huaqing's ear, and Wei Huaqing's face suddenly became serious: "Father, my son has something to report!"

"Tell me." Seeing Wei Huaqing's expression, the emperor immediately knew that the matter was of great importance.

"Last night, a traitor entered the minister's mansion with the intention of assassinating him. When the traitor left, he left behind an important piece of evidence. I feel that according to this, we will be able to find the mastermind behind the scenes!" After finishing speaking, Wei Huaqing passed the jade pendant in his hand It was given to the eunuch on the side, and the eunuch presented it.

The emperor took a closer look at the jade pendant, and his expression changed drastically: "Come here, take down this rebellious son, Seventh!"

"Father? Father, I was wronged! Father!" The seventh prince shouted while being suppressed.

"Wronged? See for yourself, what is this!" The emperor angrily threw the jade pendant on the hall, and the jade pendant hit the ground and broke into two pieces.

The Seventh Prince broke free from the guards, climbed forward, looked at the pieces of the jade pendant, and shouted: "Father! This must be a false accusation! This... this is not true! Yes! It must be the fourth child! It is the fourth child! Yes! , that's him! Feng Yong belongs to him! He did it all! He is the one who wants to frame my minister!"

"Nonsense! This is a totem bestowed by my relatives. Apart from you, only your cronies have it! This jade was a tribute back then! What else do you want to say!" The emperor felt so ashamed when he saw this jade.

"Father! My son has been wronged!" The seventh prince didn't know what to say now, but he only knew that he was wronged.

At this time, the prince suddenly stood up and reminded: "Father, my son has something to say, I don't know whether to say it or not."

"Say!" At this moment, the emperor felt that his face was completely humiliated, that his child had done these things and was exposed in front of so many ministers.

"When searching for the dragon vein incident in the Fengwang Mansion that day, I seem to remember that it was the Seventh Prince's suggestion to check the ranking of the beasts." The prince's words were even more surprising than the jade pendant just now.

"This... this..." Feng Yong pretended to be surprised, and hurriedly shouted: "Your Majesty! Please, Your Majesty, be the master of the humble family!"

"My lord, don't worry, my father has always been fair and will definitely make decisions for you. Besides, this matter has not yet been investigated, so my father can't deal with it right away..." Wei Huaqing still chimed in.

What is there to investigate when such a private thing falls on the scene?
But Wei Huaqing's words really gave the emperor a step down. After all, this is a prince, even if there are all kinds of evidence, could he judge it casually?

After all, one has to protect one's own family. Even if the meat is rotten in the pot, it cannot be seen by others.

Feng Yong sighed softly, pretending to accept it helplessly: "Oh, I understand... this matter... let's end it here... I go back to clean up, and go to Wenzhou immediately..."

Feng Yong turned around and bowed to Wei Huaqing and the others: "Your Highness the Fourth Prince, Your Highness the Crown Prince, what happened in the family of this minister may have been caused by my father's old enemies, and it is also a karma. The father's debt should be repaid by the son, and this minister should bear it alone. The date set by the Holy Majesty to take office is approaching, I will go back immediately to pack up my belongings, and set off immediately, I will meet you someday, and I will apologize to the two highnesses."

At this time, a minister suddenly said a word: "Report to the emperor, I feel that the young prince's move is inappropriate, it is completely connivance to the real murderer!"

"This minister thinks Mr. Chen's words are justified! There have been frequent strange incidents in the capital recently, and this minister feels that not only the young prince's appointment to office will be postponed, but also his colleagues should be careful when they go out in recent days. This matter must not be as simple as it seems." Another minister suddenly Come out and talk.

A minister standing in the front row continued: "Yes, Your Majesty, this matter should be thoroughly investigated. If the prince's residence and the prince's mansion can allow assassins to come and go freely, wouldn't that make your majesty go away? If this matter is not punished severely, I'm afraid the people will laugh at you, the emperor!"

"Nonsense! Who dares to laugh at the emperor! You people were bought by Feng Yong! You are slandering me!" The Seventh Prince saw the ministers as if they had made an appointment, and suddenly understood...

Seeing this, Feng Yong didn't think so in her heart. She must have done nothing, and Wei Huaqing's contacts would not allow these people to speak for her. Then... then only the prince... It seems that this prince will push The Seventh Prince took it.

Wei Huaqing looked at these people and knelt down directly: "Father! You have to make the decision for the young prince and his sons! If your own mansion is so dangerous, how can the civil and military officials of the dynasty think about going to court in the future? Everyone. There are old people and young children in the family. How many of them are widowed and lonely? If this continues, everyone will inevitably worry about the family and children in their own family when they go to court. Will their parents, wife and children be in danger at home? Will I go to court alone? Will he be ambushed and assassinated by thieves on the road? Will the gold and silver in my house disappear? Will my family's water and food be poisoned? Father, under this situation, Manchu In the civil and military affairs of the court, people are in panic and have no intention of going to court at all. It is currently a troubled time and there are many affairs, which will inevitably delay important events!"

The crown prince also knelt down: "Father! For the stability of my court and the normal affairs of the court, please order a thorough investigation! Even if it is found out that it was the enemy of Lord Feng, it cannot be tolerated. Lord Feng has long passed away. As the saying goes How can we implicate future generations? Not to mention going to the prince's residence to assassinate, this is disturbing the hearts of the people! If it spreads, what will the people think of us? How can they feel relieved about me? Even their own How can you protect thousands of people if you can’t even protect your sons?”

　Two days ago, my hand was injured, I had four stitches, I couldn’t type, and my life was affected, but now I’m back, I’ll update it soon, I apologize again!
