Deep Palace Conspiracy: My son will sit on the dragon throne and I will be the queen mother

That night, East Palace.

Because Chengjue did not come back, Chengze, as the oldest of the three princes, took the initiative to take up the important responsibility and personally sent the princesses back to the palace one by one.

According to Emperor Yin De's orders, Cheng Yuan will continue to be confined in Yuxiu Palace as soon as dawn tomorrow morning, so tonight is his last chance.

Chengyuan came to the East Palace. Zheng Baolin said that everything had been arranged here. Chengyuan wanted to know what was wrong here.

Chengjue didn't come back, and Xiao Dazi, as the father-in-law in charge of the East Palace, naturally didn't come back either. In addition, Yi'an and Shixu got married, the two newlyweds had a close relationship with Chengjue, and the palace people in the East Palace also After getting some rewards, Chengjue didn't come back tonight, so they were all slacking off.

Cheng Yuan wore a black cloak and came to the East Palace.

Hearing the movement, a young eunuch immediately came up to him sneakily.

Before Cheng Yuan showed his true face, the young eunuch said flatteringly, "I would like to pay my respects to His Highness the Sixth Prince."

"Quite clever." Chengyuan said as he followed the little eunuch.

"This servant is working for His Highness the Sixth Prince. I dare not be tactful." Cheng Yuan and a young eunuch came to the warehouse of the East Palace. The young eunuch took out something in a corner.

"Is this a spear?"

"His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince is smart. This is a good thing from the weapons supervisor and a gift from the slave to His Highness the Crown Prince."

Cheng Yuan squinted his eyes. No wonder brother Jue'er said that the net could be closed in this matter. Now it seems that the net can indeed be closed.

"Since it's a gift for me, let me see it first." Cheng Jue's oppressive voice came. The little eunuch reacted immediately. Before he could bite his tongue and kill himself, Cheng Yuan pinched him tightly. Holding his neck, "Tell me, who is the master behind this? If you don't want to tell me, I will drain your blood right now!"

The little eunuch was so frightened that he found that not only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but also His Royal Highness the Third and Sixth Princes, as well as some officials from the Ministry of Punishment, were coming.

Chengyuan's attack was too harsh, and the little eunuch couldn't breathe at all, but for the sake of his family, he really couldn't say anything.

Chengjue and the others don't want his testimony now. After all, they set up such a big scheme and only brought down a little eunuch. That would be boring.

The little eunuch originally wanted to yell as a signal to send a message to his accomplices outside the East Palace. There might be a way out from this matter, but little did he know that his so-called escape routes had long been blocked by Cheng Jue and the others. died.

In the morning of the next day, the sun had gradually risen, and the Holy Driver had not yet arrived. The officials should have been quiet, but instead they were whispering below.

Just because His Highness the Crown Prince hasn’t arrived yet.

They saw what happened yesterday. If His Highness the Crown Prince messed up something because of drinking, it would be impossible for His Majesty to ignore it if hundreds of officials impeached him.

If the matter were more serious, the crown prince's position might not be preserved.

Some officials have already had the foresight to write a memorial to impeach His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

The seventh prince Chengrui quickly walked into the palace and walked to his seat. He shook his head at Chengze. Chengze frowned and looked anxious when he saw that Chengjue's seat was still empty.

"I'm going to see the master." Chengrui whispered and was about to leave, but was stopped by Chengze. "It's time to go to court in a while. What's going on if you're not here?"

Chengrui glanced back at the officials behind him. Headed by brother Wu Chongyuan, the memorial to impeach Prince Chengjue was already hidden in his sleeve. Chengrui glanced at them, hoping that these people would still be able to laugh after a while.

Li Fuhai came out at this time, waved his whisk and shouted loudly, "Your Majesty is here!"

The officials temporarily put away their little thoughts and knelt on the ground respectfully, "I will bow to your Majesty. Long live your Majesty. Long live your Majesty."

Li Fuhai then shouted, "His Royal Highness is here!"

The officials continued to shout, "Kowtow to His Highness the Crown Prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince may live a thousand years and a thousand years."

Chengjue accompanied Emperor Yinde out of the side hall. Emperor Yinde sat down on the dragon chair, and Chengjue stood in his place at the bottom of the palace.

Emperor Yinde frowned and looked at the officials kneeling on the ground. Yesterday, Yi'an got married and he rested in Huayang Palace. When he got up this morning, he heard from Li Fuhai that His Royal Highness was kneeling outside to apologize.

When he heard that the matter was serious, he quickly called Cheng Jue in to ask for details.

It turned out that Chengjue felt that he was rude because of his drunkenness last night, so he came here to apologize.

When Emperor Yinde saw that Chengjue's body was a little stiff, he knew that he had been kneeling for a long time. He scolded the young eunuch on duty a few times, and then hurried over to go to court. He was still angry in his heart.

He also came from the crown prince step by step, how could he not know how many people are staring at this position.

If Chengjue didn't plead guilty first, I'm afraid someone would make a fuss out of it.

"Pingsheng." Emperor Yin De said in a calm tone, "I just saw you guys being very lively in the palace. What did you say?"

Emperor Yinde seemed to be interested, and he wanted to join in the excitement of his ministers regardless of the country's prior discussion.

"Father, the son and minister are talking about the emperor brother. I thought that the emperor brother has not returned to the palace yet and were about to send someone to look for him. Now it seems that the son has misunderstood the emperor brother. How could the emperor be so drunk? Where is the person who made the mistake?" Chengze said.

Emperor Yinde's face was no longer so gloomy, "It's normal for An'an and Shixu to get drunk for a while. Even I occasionally get drunk. It doesn't matter. But you were drunk last night and knelt down for so long today. , After the morning court in a while, please ask an imperial physician to take a look."

The first half of Emperor Yinde's sentence was to express his attitude towards this matter to the civil and military officials, and the second half of his sentence was his concern and protection for Chengjue.

"Thank you, my dear father, for your concern." Chengjue bowed slightly.

Some officials hurriedly hid the memorials on their sleeves. Seeing His Majesty's attitude towards His Royal Highness, they decided not to press the muzzle of their guns.

"My son, I have something to say." Cheng Rui looked at the silence in the hall and knew that he should speak.

Emperor Yinde looked at Chengrui's expression, which was more serious than ever before, and raised his hand, "Precisely."

Chengrui looked back directly and shouted outside the hall, "Bring the people up!"

Two young eunuchs escorted a young eunuch in and knelt in the center of the Jinluan Palace. The young eunuch being escorted was the same young eunuch who said he had given Chengjue a gift in the East Palace last night.

There was also a young eunuch who came in with the spear that appeared in the East Palace last night.

Emperor Yinde and the officials still didn't know what was going on. Only the person who designed the game realized that he had fallen into the trap.

"For the record, my father, I am going to impeach Mr. Zheng of the Ministry of War today." Chengrui said, presenting the memorial in his hand.

The Master Zheng in his mouth is Zheng Baolin's father.
