Cannon Fodder [Quick Transmigration]

Chapter 287 The No. 8 Royal Husband

Above the court hall, Wang Fu shouted: "If there is something to do, let's play, and if there is nothing to do, leave the court!"

Cao Yushi came out and said: "Your Majesty Qi Zou, I have this performance."

The emperor glanced at him and said, "Say."

"I want to impeach His Highness the Crown Prince for wooing students and forming cliques for personal gain." Cao Yushi said with an upright face.

Cao Yushi received a secret letter yesterday. In the letter, it was written that the prince went in and out of the Qingyue Inn and colluded with Jinshi Jinshi. Although he knew that the person who sent the letter wanted to use him to impeach the prince, he was always neutral in the court and treated everyone in the court. The attitude of officials is an image of uprightness.

If he turned a blind eye to the content of this secret letter, he might be targeted in the future. Therefore, although Cao Yushi didn't want to impeach the prince, he still stood up and impeached the prince as usual.

In fact, Cao Yushi also kept a mind in his mind, that is, he did not investigate the truth of this matter. If it is finally found out that the prince has been wronged, he can also say that he was deceived by others, and at most he will be reprimanded several times. But he felt that since the person behind him dared to send a letter to him, it must be true that the prince went to Qingyue Inn.

In this way, he is not slandering the prince, but just telling the truth.

Wu Xu stood at the front. He heard Cao Yushi's impeachment, and his heart sank. Then he thought of the countermeasures and was about to defend himself when he heard the emperor on the dragon chair say, "The prince is going to the Qingyue Inn. This matter was ordered by me, and it is related to the matter of the harem, I hope that Cao Aiqing can abide by her duty in the future and supervise all officials, instead of focusing on my harem."

As soon as this remark came out, the court was silent.

Wu Xu looked up at the emperor in disbelief. The emperor glanced at him and didn't say anything. Instead, Wang Fu quietly gave Wu Xu a five.

Immediately, Wu Xu realized that it was Wu Bai who had contributed to it, and his mood instantly brightened, and he couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.

The third prince kept staring at Wu Xu. He naturally saw Wu Xu's smile. Thinking that the emperor would speak for Wu Xu, the third prince was very jealous.

The officials attached to the prince also breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts; the officials attached to the third prince felt sorry. They thought they could suppress the prince, but they did not expect that His Majesty would speak for the prince; It doesn't matter much to them.

Cao Yushi was sweating coldly on his back. He didn't expect that the prince would go to Qingyue Inn because he was doing business for the emperor. Thinking of this, Cao Yushi secretly gritted his teeth at the person who sent him the letter.

Then, he hurriedly knelt on the ground and said: "I will follow His Majesty's will, and must abide by my duties."

The emperor nodded slightly, and Wang Fuli immediately stepped forward and announced: "Retire~~"

All the courtiers knelt down and said, "Long live the Five Emperors!"

After retiring from the court, Wu Xu was about to leave, but was stopped by Wang Fu.

"Your Highness, Your Majesty let you go." Wang Fu said respectfully.

Hearing this, Wu Xu followed Wang Fu to the Imperial Study Room.

"See father." Wu Xu saluted.

"No." The emperor waved his hand.

The emperor came over from behind the table and asked, "Brother Bai said that you taught Xiao Zimo yesterday, so tell me about him."

As soon as Wu Xu heard that the emperor asked this, he immediately understood why the emperor rescued him just now. He breathed a sigh of relief, and began to tell the emperor what happened after meeting Xiao Zimo yesterday.

On the other side, the third prince was also called over by the servants of Concubine Di Gui.

"Mother Concubine, why did you ask your son to come here?" The third prince stepped into Di Guifei's palace and asked.

"Mother and Concubine brought some fresh grapes from the palace. It happened that I haven't seen you for a long time, so I asked you to come over and have some grapes." Concubine Di Gui gave the palace staff a wink.

The palace servants hurriedly brought the grapes to the third prince.

The third prince was aggrieved by the fact that the emperor above the court spoke for the prince, so he naturally didn't have the heart to eat.

Seeing his ugly face, Di Guifei asked, "What's wrong with you? You look so ugly."

"Mother and concubine, why is the father always protecting the crown prince? Since the son entered the court, as long as the matter arranged by the father has been conscientiously completed, why is the father always unable to see this? Prince!" The third prince said with red eyes.

"What happened?" Di Guifei asked.

She had never seen her emperor's son lose his temper like this, which made Concubine Di Gui very worried.

The third prince did not hide the truth from Concubine Di Gui, he told the truth about what happened in the court.

"What happened to the mother and concubine? It was just a small impeachment. Your father used to love and protect the crown prince. This trivial matter is not worth your attention." Concubine Di Gui comforted her.

"My son is not because of this incident, but because of the way my father protected the prince in the past, I can't help but feel chilled." The third prince explained.

Concubine Zhai knew why the emperor protected the crown prince so much. Wasn't it because the crown prince was born of the Lou family? She was young and vigorous when she first entered the palace. In the end, after suffering a few times, I realized that no one in the palace should offend the queen.

Fortunately, the Zhai family is powerful, so she can now secure the position of imperial concubine, otherwise she would have been thrown into the cold palace long ago.

At this moment, she heard that her son was getting serious with the prince, and she comforted her: "My son, your eyes are still too shallow. You must know that the winner is the one who laughs at the end. I think Lou was deeply favored by the emperor back then, but so what?" In this way, she is not without blessings."

After hearing this, the third prince nodded and said: "Thank you, Concubine Mother, for your reminder, it was just now that I was stunned."

"It's not too late to make up for it." Concubine Zhai pointed at the grapes and said again, "Eat some grapes! These are grapes unique to the Western Regions. It took a lot of painstaking efforts to send them to the capital. The portion is not much, so it's up to your house." That little weight probably isn't enough for those people in your backyard."

"I made mother laugh." The third prince said with a smile.

"Speaking of which, the Crown Princess will be ushered in the East Palace in a few months, so your main concubine should also be arranged," said Concubine Di Gui.

"Is there any good candidate for mother?" The third prince asked.

Concubine Di Gui said with a smile: "Concubine Mu, there are indeed three candidates who are more suitable for you."

"Mother, come and listen."

"The first one is the daughter of the Minister of the Ministry of War. Most of your influence in the court are civil officials. If you want to win that position, you can't just rely on these civil officials to play tricks. If you can rely on marriage to hold military power in your hands, This marriage is the most valuable." Di Guifei said eloquently.

The third prince nodded and agreed with his mother's words, and then asked, "What about the other two?"

"The other two family backgrounds are slightly lower, but they will help you in the future. The second one is Ren Leyao, the niece of Concubine Li's natal family. Although Concubine Li has only the fourth prince under her knees, the fourth prince is currently in the frontier. He With the military power in your hand, and the fact that Concubine Li is deeply favored by your father, when the time comes, the court and the court officials will work together, which will definitely make your journey smoother." Concubine Zhai analyzed.

"Concubine Li was grounded by the emperor yesterday, can she really help my son?" The third prince said hesitantly.

"Don't worry about this, as long as she is not disfigured, she will regain His Majesty's favor sooner or later." Di Guifei said firmly.

"Why is this?" The Third Prince asked curiously.

Concubine Zhai thought about it, and felt that there was no need to hide it from her son, so she told the story about Concubine Li's appearance as Empress Yuan.

When the Empress Yuan passed away, the third prince was not yet four years old. Now that 17 years have passed, the third prince has long been unable to remember the appearance of the empress Yuan, so he does not know that Concubine Li looks like the empress Yuan. Can't help but suddenly said: "No wonder the father always protects the prince."

"Now you know why you can't compete with the prince, right? The prince is protected by the dead, but the living can't compete with the dead." Concubine Di Gui said helplessly.

The third prince looked at Concubine Di Gui, and then asked: "Mother, who is the third candidate you mentioned just now?"

Concubine Zhai replied: "The third candidate is Hu Shuyu, the younger sister of the Imperial Army Dutong. Although Hu Dutong has only a few thousand people under his command, he is responsible for the safety of the entire palace. If it is necessary in the future, he is the only one who is the most suitable." Those who help you, although the fourth prince has a large army in the frontier, he can't stop the fire from far away."

"Let the concubine mother worry about it, and I will think about it carefully." The third prince said solemnly.

"What do you need to worry about? You are the son of Concubine Mother. If Concubine Mother doesn't plan for you, who else can she help?" Concubine Di Gui shook her head.

Xiao Zimo rented another yard to live in, and Wu Bai specially sent guards from the Prince's Mansion to protect him for his safety.

"It's really thanks to the son's help this time, otherwise I'm afraid I would have died in that inn without knowing it." Xiao Zimo said gratefully.

"It's just a pity that we didn't catch the murderer behind the scenes." Wu Bai regretted.

"Since the other party wanted to harm me, but he didn't succeed now, he may find another chance to harm me next time. When the time comes, we can just catch that person again. Don't be discouraged, my lord." Xiao Zimo comforted.

Wu Bai nodded and said, "You're right."

Xiao Zimo was worried that Wu Bai would continue to worry about this problem, so he changed the subject and said, "My lord, what did you send me today? I haven't seen it yet!"

Hearing this, Wu Bai removed the protective paper on the outside of the test paper, then revealed the palace test answer sheet inside, and said, "This is what the second brother asked me to give you, and it's all the answer sheets of those who were excellent in the palace test in the past."

"Really!" Xiao Zimo's eyes lit up, staring at the test paper.

After a while, Xiao Zimo withdrew his gaze and said, "Thank you Fifth Young Master and His Royal Highness for taking care of me."

"You're welcome." Wu Bai waved his hand.

Xiao Zimo carefully put these test papers away, and then said to Wu Bai: "My lord, I don't have enough pen and ink. I want to go to the study to buy some more? I wonder if my lord is willing to go with me?"

Wu Bai nodded and said, "Of course I would."

"Great." Xiao Zimo said happily.

Then the two of them went to the street, went to the study to buy pens and inks, and happened to meet Zhao Huikang on the way back.

Zhao Huikang asked worriedly: "Zimo, where did you move to? I went to the inn to look for you just now, but they said you moved away, and asked where you moved, and they all said they didn't know."

Looking at his friend who cared about him, Xiao Zimo truthfully told him that he was almost poisoned in the inn.

"Poison!" Zhao Huikang asked with concern, "Did you not drink that water?"

Xiao Zimo shook his head and said: "I didn't drink it, but the fifth son almost drank it. Fortunately, the fifth son noticed something was wrong, otherwise he and I would be in danger."

"It's fine if you don't drink it." Zhao Huikang said happily.

The three of them were talking, and soon came to Xiao Zimo's newly rented yard. After Zhao Huikang took note of the location, he left quickly.

Seeing that it was getting late, Wu Bai also said goodbye to Xiao Zimo and returned to the Prince's Mansion.
