Reborn Emperor's House

the capital.Third Prince's Mansion.

"What?" The third prince knocked over the teacup, "Trash!"

"Master, spare your life, Master, spare your life."

"You idiots! How could he let him find out where the goods are hidden!"

"This... This little one doesn't know... The spies we sent these days can't find anything... Somehow..."

"inability!"

"Yes, yes, slaves are incompetent, slaves are incompetent."

The third prince sat on the chair and took a deep breath...

"That's all." The third prince calmed down and spoke.

"Forget it, Quan Dang gave him a credit, which is cheap for him. Even if he finds out the hiding place, he can't save Jiang Lou. He can't find me."

"Yes, yes. The master has a clever plan and is well prepared."

"Seizure the private salt, hum, it's enough for him to be proud in front of his father, you, go and sue the imperial court to clean up the house. Don't make any more mistakes!"

"Yes, yes, the slave will go now."

After the servant went down, the third prince became more and more angry, and overturned the little square machine that was placed on the collapsed floor.

Originally, it was concluded that even if his prince knew about the private salt, he knew that he was suspected by the emperor, and the evidence was insufficient, so the prince would not dare to investigate further. Unexpectedly, he really dared to investigate and gamble!

The third prince thought about it, hmph, all the clues have been dealt with, so I don't believe he can make any big waves.At that time, without evidence, he will still have to punish Jiang Lou.

The third prince didn't believe it, and the prince dared to gamble the emperor's trust with the position of prince.Even if he really gambled, it wouldn't hurt him, Tang Jingyu could only eat the bitter fruit.

"Tang Jingyu, this time, I will remember!"

the capital.Royal study.

"How is the prince checking?"

"It is said that a case of illegal salt trafficking was found." An old official sat on a stool beside him and replied respectfully.

"Hmm... what else?"

"Nothing else."

"Oh, what about the Jiang family?"

"No action, it seems...it seems to have given up on Jiang Lou..." The old minister couldn't help sighing.

"They will think they are smart. Cutting off their arms to survive, killing their relatives righteously, will not make it difficult for the prince."

"Then, His Royal Highness..."

"Where is the third child?" The emperor interrupted him.

"The third prince didn't make any big moves."

"No big moves? The third child has already done all the action... Selling private salt, the third child has found a good business to do it."

"..." The old minister remained silent.

"Hmph, the prince is still useful. I paid a lot of salt this time. If the third child wants to continue, he needs to work harder. That's good. I'm not afraid of his efforts, but I'm afraid he won't. To the third child , and the restless Ding family, I will have to teach you a lesson sooner or later."

"Your Majesty, in the current situation, it may be difficult for the crown prince to overturn the case."

"It's just to make it difficult for him. Jiang Lou has no evidence for Nancheng's case. Even if he can find evidence of his innocence, the crown prince may not dare to send it up. He is afraid that I won't believe it."

"Then why bother the emperor..."

"I reminded him that it's about the people. It's not terrible to seek profit, but if you let the people ignore it, it's disloyal. It's unrighteous to kill Zhongliang for your own gain. I just want to see, the heart of this prince, Which side does it grow on?"

"emperor……"

"Okay, no need to say more. He blocked all the spies I sent, and I didn't blame him."

The old minister was a little helpless. At the beginning, the emperor found out about the sale of the third prince, but he allowed the third prince to sell private salt until now, and allowed him to kill innocent people. It was just to use the Ding family to check and balance the court. Now, it seems that he still intends to let it go. Who is letting the people go? Regardless.

Looking at the emperor with a slightly awkward tone, the old minister wanted to say something, Your Majesty, it is because your spies are not as good as others...

South City.

"How is it?" Tang Jingyu asked.

"I have already contacted the neighbors of the family who filed the imperial petition. They can indeed prove that Mr. Jiang did not occupy the land, but...they don't know anything else. They can't testify." Tang Yan replied.

"The innocence letter jointly written by the people of Nancheng has been prepared, but... if the person arrested by Mr. Jiang cannot prove that he is selling illegal salt, there is no way to prove his innocence. This joint letter is just..." Qi San replied .

"Your Highness..." Jiang Lou stood up and bowed to the end. "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your hard work these past few days. Thank you, my lords, for your wholehearted help."

Jiang Lou is sincerely grateful, he has long been determined to die, but he was really unwilling before, but now, the prince is really benevolent.

Jiang Lou stood up and said to everyone, "Jiang Lou expected this to happen a long time ago. A few days ago, I always felt unwilling, but after these days, I figured it out. The matter is over, and I have no complaints or regrets." .”

Jiang Lou faced the crown prince, "Your Highness, please write a letter stating that Jiang Lou's crime is unforgivable, and he is willing to obey the law. Your Highness, please escort the guilty minister to the capital immediately."

"Master Jiang..." Tang Jingyu was a little sad.

"Your Highness, there is no need to say too much. During these few days of getting along, I know His Highness's difficulties, and I also know that His Highness will be a wise king one day. If I can do my best for His Highness, I will die without regret. I just ask Your Highness not to forget Jiang. Lou's grievances, as for the others, please fulfill your Highness."

Tang Mu looked at Jiang Lou, as if he saw those brothers in his previous life who knew that they would lose their lives, but still had to do the task, his eyes were wet unconsciously.

Tang Jingyu was also very sad, although he knew that the Emperor's Road was built with bones.But when he really used the bones of innocent people, he was really uncomfortable.

In the beginning, it was indeed decided to investigate Tang Mu's mood, and for his conscience. Although it was also for the sake of the people, the feeling was not strong.

After checking these days, he knew the local people's love for Jiang Lou, and he knew that the truth was right in front of him, but he felt helpless.It's hard to be an upright official, and it's hard to prove innocence.

Jiang Lou.Gu will definitely not let you down.

"Come here, write a letter to the capital. The case has been found out, and the guilty minister will be sent back to the capital immediately."

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your success." After Jiang Lou finished speaking, he knelt down and saluted, turned around and went out, and went to the dungeon by himself.

Tang Yan beat his chest in frustration, looked at the prince, and chased him out.

Qi San retreated silently and sent a letter to Ren Zishan.

Tang Mu walked over and gently took Tang Jingyu's hand.She shook hands and said softly, "It's okay."

"Mu'er..." Tang Jingyu held Tang Mu in her arms, buried her head on his shoulder, and did not move for a long time.

the capital.Xu Ji Restaurant.

"Here's a letter. The crown prince has written a letter to escort Jianglou back to Beijing." Ren Zishan said to the shopkeeper.

"No! No, this is not right!"

"What's wrong? It's written like this."

"Let me ask you, has there been any movement in the palace these few days?"

"No...the empress's side is killing relatives righteously, the third prince's side is keeping a low profile, and the emperor's side is waiting for the result..."

"No! The emperor's side is wrong!"

"emperor?"

"This matter was wrong from the beginning. The emperor asked the prince to investigate the Jiang family. We all said it was a temptation. Can this be considered a temptation? Is there such a blatant temptation?"

"You mean..."

"For so many days, the prince has been investigating the case, but he has not replied to the emperor. The spies sent by the emperor are blocked by your people. It stands to reason that the emperor will at least urge or ask. But the emperor has not moved. You think it is normal ?"

"Hiss~ That's right! Why didn't I think of that." Ren Zishan slapped his forehead.

"Unless it is, the emperor is waiting."

"Wait... wait for the crown prince's result?"
