Datang Almighty Dad

Chapter 551 The Helpless Prince

I don't know what Yan Taizhen said to the emperor, or didn't say anything, just to help ease the atmosphere, after a while, the palace discussion started again, and the emperor's face looked much better.

"Since the crown prince wants to use death row prisoners to handle the case, I will allow him to be free for half a day. I wonder if the crown prince is satisfied?"

Prince Li Yu happily saluted and thanked him quickly: "Thank you, father."

With such a frizzy look, there is no city mansion, and He Zhi was about to open his mouth to remind him before it was too late.

The emperor asked: "Is it really so difficult to investigate the case of Que Le Huoduo? The crown prince has been in charge of the Jing'an Department for half a year, and the case has not been solved until today. Prince, don't you want to say something to me?"

The crown prince said loudly: "Everyone in Jing'an Division is dedicated to handling the case..."

"What's the use of just talking about hard work? The sage is asking the prince, why hasn't this case been investigated yet?" The old fox Lin Jiulang has been rushing to answer, interrupting Prince Li Yu's planned speech.

Li Yu opened his mouth and said angrily: "It's just that the right minister has repeatedly obstructed him."

"Saint, the prince shirks responsibility."

The two quarreled again, and the crown prince faced Lin Jiulang and asked, "Dare to ask the right minister, why has Jing'an's chief executive become Ji Wen now? Where is Li Bi, the original Si Cheng?"

Lin Jiulang did not show any weakness, and said in a clear voice: "All the thieves who were investigated by Li Bicha entered the door, and almost burned the Jing'an Department. If the prince was not under the cover, according to the law, he should be sent to the Ministry of Punishment for accountability!"

"Father, it's because someone transferred all the Luben Army in the Jing'an Division to the You Xiaowei official office, leaving the Jing'an Division's security defense empty..."

"It was Wang Zongsi's daughter who came forward and accused Zhang Xiaojing of colluding with the thieves. General Wang Zongsi and the prince are brothers and sisters. What his daughter said could not be a false accusation, right? Therefore, Lu Ben's army was ordered to escort Zhang Xiaojing to You Xiaowei to be imprisoned."

The crown prince defended: "Wang Yunxiu has always been of bad conduct, she does her own way, her words and deeds today have nothing to do with her father. Don't just grab and bite at every turn!"

"Who are you talking about biting?"

The two quarreled more and more fiercely, really like two lions with their hair blown up, one old and one young, the audience was silent, just watching the two quarreling with each other, with no one to help or disturb.

The same is true for the emperor on the dragon chair. He just sat and listened quietly with a blank expression on his face. In fact, his heart is like a mirror. If he wants to find out the case?Or figure out who is cheating?There is no need to check who is lying, just ask today's third-party participant, that is, my cheap uncle.The reason why he didn't ask was because he didn't want to expose it in public. Maybe the fight between the two of them was what he was willing to see.

Prince Li Yu rushed to Lin Jiulang, staring at the other person's eyes, because he was taller than Lin Jiulang, so he looked a bit intimidating at this time, looked at each other for a long time, and the prince spit out three words: "Dog!" Same!"

"Saint!" Lin Jiulang turned around and fell to his knees in aggrieved plop, thinking that I am a dignified prime minister, and I was scolded as a dog in court?Although the prime minister is indeed working for the royal family, what is the etiquette?What about the friendship between monarch and minister?You can't humiliate me like this.

He Zhizheng sighed and shook his head, don't look too far away.The prince finally got angry for a while, but this move was a big mistake.Although you can vent your anger by scolding Lin Jiulang, you shouldn't scold him in public. You treat Tangtang Zai as your dog, not even your servants. Does that mean that all the civil and military officials in the dynasty are your livestock?

Although the truth is the same, but in this era when etiquette is greater than the sky, you directly hurt the hearts of all the civil and military people present. To sacrifice your life for the Tang Dynasty is to sacrifice your life for the Li family, but you can't get it in exchange for your life. With some respect, who is willing to follow you in humiliation?

In the past, I boasted that the prince is my best student, but now it seems that I am useless!

The prince then turned around and knelt down and said, "Father, in the past half a year, everyone in the Jing'an Division has devoted themselves to handling the case. As for why there is no progress, the father should ask the right minister, who is behind every possible obstruction."

"Saint, the crown prince hates Lin and slanders him with excuses!" Lin Jiulang said aggrievedly.

"It's not slander. It's the truth! Father, Prime Minister for some reason, is always against his son..." At this point, Prince Li Yu couldn't continue, because he saw his father's calm and cold eyes, or Say, he is clear in his heart but dare not speak out, what else could be the reason?How dare a prime minister target the prince like this?There is only one reason, the emperor's instigation behind his back.

The emperor asked back: "So, you ordered He Fu to assassinate him today?"

The prince kowtowed his head with tears in his eyes, "Li Yu is definitely not there!"

He Zhi was struggling to get up, and was supported by someone to come forward and kneel down. The emperor stepped down from the dragon chair and said gently, "Mr. He, I want to listen to you. Is this prince wronged?"

He Zhizheng was silent, as if he was thinking. He turned his head to look at the prince kneeling on the ground. He didn't know if he was suffering from a headache. The old man reacted very slowly at this moment. up.

After a long time, he gritted his teeth, and when he was about to speak, the old fox Lin Jiulang interrupted again: "Old He, He Fu's confession against the crown prince, the sage, has already read it. Ruo He pretended not to know, but no one would hide it." However, not only can't save the prince, but also bring trouble to myself."

"If the palace deceives the emperor, immediately take him away from the Huae Building and send him to the prison." Well, what a mighty right minister, he dared to threaten Hong Guoguo in front of the saint, and He Zhizheng trembled all over.

The emperor said comfortingly: "Old He, don't be afraid, tell the truth. Everyone knows that I never protect my own son."

He Zhizheng hesitated again and again, but he still couldn't give an answer. Maybe it was because of worries in his heart. There were more important things tonight, and it was not worth it to be kicked out of Huae Building by accident!
When Prince Li Yu heard the emperor's words, his body trembled. He remembered his two brothers who had been killed. For a moment, the feeling of grief for the death of the rabbit and the fox struck him again. "In my father's heart, who is more useful to Datang, the minister or the right minister?"

He Zhizheng tugged at the prince's sleeve, but he couldn't persuade him. The prince was like a stubborn calf.

Anger gradually grew in the emperor's eyes, and he was very dissatisfied when he saw his own son who dared to contradict and question him, and shouted loudly: "Mr. Lin!"

Lin Jiulang was inexplicably moved, and fell to his knees with a plop, his eyes filled with the light of a man who has always died for his confidant!I said in my heart that this is all right, and I will wait for the next step to announce that I am acting as the sole agent of the government.

It's over... He Zhi said honestly, how could he be in such a situation?Simply closing his eyes and leaning on his crutches, he fell asleep with his head tilted.

The tears in the prince's eyes could no longer be suppressed, like soybeans, falling down. He was extremely wronged, but he could not speak out. At this moment, there was no one to talk about.

He reached into his arms, as if wanting to pick something up.

The emperor asked in confusion: "What are you touching? Take it out and show me."

Lin Jiulang swallowed, and had an ominous guess in his mind, and nine out of ten it was evidence against him.
