He conspired against her in his previous life, and he flirted with her on their wedding night again

The Xizhou Dam would be washed away by floods, which was known to everyone in the civil and military dynasties.

It is impossible not to hear about Xiliang's fine works hidden in Kyoto.

When the Xizhou Dam is bombed at this time, isn't it like standing up and taking the blame for the Jin Wang Party? Xi Liang's head was kicked by a donkey.

But what they can see through at a glance cannot be hidden from the emperor. This is not to deal with the aftermath, but to blatantly make the emperor angry to death. These people are too courageous.

Shen Wan vaguely felt that things were not that simple. She looked at Xie Jingyan and was about to speak when suddenly the door was knocked and the servant came in and said, "Your Majesty, the Emperor has summoned you to enter the palace."

Xie Jingyan was summoned to the palace at this time. No need to ask, it must be about the Xizhou Dam.

When it came to business, Xie Jingyan stood up immediately without delay.

The emperor only summoned Xie Jingyan, but when Xie Jingyin and the eldest prince heard about this, they rushed into the palace immediately and met at the carriage stop.

The two of them fought overtly and covertly for the crown prince, to the point where they started fighting each other when they met.

Seeing Xie Jingyin, the eldest prince said, "The King of Jin is so brave. He blew up the Xizhou Dam and blamed Xiliang."

Hearing these words, Xie Jingyin only found it funny, "The eldest prince connived at the people under his command to secretly sell the court's grain reserves. When the matter was exposed, he burned down the warehouse. Didn't the eldest prince realize that my father has been hiding a lot from you recently? How dare I not? Learn a lesson and do something so blatant?”

The eldest prince was also laughing, "So the Xizhou Dam was really blown up by Xiliang Xizuo?"

"Then this detailed work of Xi Liang is too good at understanding the wishes of the King of Jin."

The two were tit for tat.

Eyes fighting.

At this moment, the sound of horse hooves came, interrupting the confrontation between the two.

The two of them turned their heads and saw Xie Jingyan riding over.

Xie Jingyin asked strangely, "Why did he enter the palace too?"

"His father summoned him to the palace," the eldest prince said.

The eldest prince entered the palace directly from Prince Ling's Mansion, so he naturally knew that the emperor had sent someone to spread the news about Xie Jingyan.

Xie Jingyin's eyes suddenly darkened. His father had recently summoned Prince Ling more times than him. He glanced at the eldest prince and said, "I will fight to the death, and in the end I will let Prince Ling sit back and reap the benefits."

The battle between him and the eldest prince depends on whether he will find out the Meizhou granary water leakage case first, or the eldest prince will find out the Xizhou dam embezzlement case first.

But in both cases, Prince Ling was involved, and while they were fighting fiercely and racking their brains to bring the other down, he took advantage of them without saying a word.

The people of Meizhou built shrines for Pingyang Hou Shizi and the eldest young master of the Yun family. The Xizhou dam will be washed away by the flood. Just by this sentence, the credit goes to the eldest young master Yun. It is precisely because of these contributions. , plus two million taels, won a gold medal to avoid death, and saved Prince Yanping's life at a critical moment.

The eldest prince watched Xie Jingyan walk towards the imperial study room and said, "What is Prince Jin worried about? The sixth emperor brother was kicked out six years ago. Even if we fight and both lose, we will not reap the benefits." He is the Sixth Emperor's brother, unless——"

"There was another hidden story behind Concubine Chen's case back then."

If there is really a secret in Concubine Chen's case, it would be due to her father's love for Prince Ling and the guilt of demoting Prince Ling to guard the imperial mausoleum for four years. Even if they join forces, they can't shake Prince Ling's status.

Royal study room.

The emperor was sitting on the dragon throne. Ever since he received the urgent message from Xizhou, the anger on his face had not gone away.

Eunuch Yuan was waiting at the side, but he couldn't persuade him even if he wanted to.

These princes of the emperor are really more courageous than the other.

In order to cover up the crime of privately selling grain reserves, the fire dragon burned the warehouse. In order not to expose the corruption of Xizhou Dam, he directly blew up the dam. The imperial court spent hundreds of thousands of taels on the dam and it took two full years to repair it. ah.

The eldest prince and King Jin were respectful to the emperor openly. King Ling was angry with the emperor for some reason, but it was King Ling who really cared about the world.

It's just a pity that Concubine Chen is involved...

The two princes fought for the crown prince at all costs, and it would be no exaggeration to say that they were ruthless. If they really succeeded in the fight, Eunuch Yuan would be worried about Da Chu's future.

Xiao Xizi brought tea over, and Eunuch Yuan brought it to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, please have a cup of tea to relieve your anger."

This is already the fourth cup of tea that Eunuch Yuan has served to the emperor.

The emperor picked up the tea, took a sip, and knocked it hard on the dragon table.

When Xie Jingyan entered, he happened to see this scene. He said, "Even if the Xizhou Dam is not blown up, it will be destroyed by floods in a few days. It cannot be saved. Why should my father be so angry?"

He really adds fuel to the fire with just one mouthful.

Eunuch Yuan didn't even know why the emperor summoned Prince Ling to the palace. Did he think he wasn't angry enough?

The emperor was already angry, but his face suddenly turned even greener.

There is corruption in the Xizhou Dam. Although the emperor is very angry, he is not as angry as he is now. After all, it is impossible for a large project like this not to have corruption. The degree of corruption can vary, but Xizhou It is not enough that the blueprints of the state dam have been repeatedly destroyed. Now they even dare to blow up the dam. This is already a lawless act.

The emperor looked at Xie Jingyan and said, "Go to Xizhou to investigate this case."

"Don't go!"

The answer was crisp and clear.

This was the second time the emperor asked him to take charge of the Xizhou Dam case, and this was also the second time Xie Jingyan refused.

If he could take over, he would have taken over last time and wouldn't wait until now.

Even though you know he won't care, you still look for him.

The emperor was so angry that smoke was rising from his head, and Eunuch Yuan quickly advised him, "The emperor entrusts this case to you, Prince Ling, because he has high hopes for you, Prince Ling..."

"Have high hopes for me?"

Xie Jingyan smiled mockingly, "What high hopes? Do you want me to be crown prince?"

Eunuch Yuan, "..."

The emperor's face turned livid, and he slapped the table angrily and said, "I think you don't want to be crown prince, but you want me to give you a slap in the face?!"

Xie Jingyan's lips curled up with a hint of self-deprecation, "There are many people who want to investigate the Xizhou Dam case. Why should the Emperor care about me?"

Before he finished speaking, Eunuch Xiao Xizi came in and said, "Your Majesty, the eldest prince and Prince Jin are here."

"Let them in."

Xiao Xizi exited, and soon the eldest prince and Prince Jin came in.

They all heard Xie Jingyan's words outside the royal study room just now when he contradicted the emperor.

Fortunately, they still thought that Prince Ling wanted to compete for the crown prince position, so the emperor was so angry that he wanted to chop off his head.

Xie Jingyin said, "Father, please calm down. The Sixth Emperor didn't mean to disobey his father. He just couldn't bear to leave the pregnant princess to go to Xizhou. It's better for me to investigate this case."

Xie Jingyan's face darkened.

It was well known that he loved Shen Wan to the point of making her unhappy. Now the emperor was so angry that he blamed his unwillingness to go to Xizhou to investigate the case as his reluctance to part with Shen Wan. This was clearly intended to arouse the emperor's dissatisfaction with Shen Wan.

How could Xie Jingyan let Xie Jingyin succeed with Xie Jingyin's crooked thoughts? He sneered, "Who told King Jin that if he investigates the Xizhou Dam case, he must abandon the princess and go to Xizhou?"

Xie Jingyin said, "All the drawings and account books related to the construction of the Xizhou Dam have been destroyed. How can we investigate this case without going to Xizhou in person?"

Xie Jingyan said casually, "What was destroyed was only the original manuscript and the copy I gave to the eldest prince. It doesn't mean that I don't have a backup in my hand."

Xie Jingyin's expression suddenly changed.

But it soon returned to normal.

The eldest prince was stunned and raised his voice, "Do you still have a backup?!"

"Yes, and more than one."
