On how cannon fodder became a group favorite [Transmigration Book]

"What other basis did they say?" Fu Jinghong sat on the chair alone and continued to ask with a cold face.

Ling Shuang said respectfully: "They said that the emperor has a birthmark behind his ear to prove it."

Whether Xie Yuanjia has a birthmark behind his ears, others may not know, but Fu Jinghong knows best, and the only one in the whole palace who can be so close to him is himself.He had indeed seen a light red birthmark behind Yuan Jia's ear. Although it was not very obvious, it did exist, and anyone who cared could spot it if he kept staring at it.

He clasped the table with one hand and tapped it, and suddenly said: "The person who can release this rumor must have something to do with the incident back then, maybe he is one of the parties involved, you go and investigate."

"Everyone who was present when Yuan Jia was born, including the wet nurse, wet nurse, maid, and Wen Po, must find out their whereabouts." Fu Jinghong narrowed his eyes and said, "When you find them, lock them up for me whether you know them or not. To be interrogated one by one."

Ling Shuang took the lead.

"In addition, you sent people to watch Yanfei Academy. Since ancient times, students are the most brainless, and they are easily used by others to rush to the forefront. It may be that these rumors were made by the students in the first place."

"You keep an eye on them, and no one is allowed to spread this matter. Violators...kill."

Fu Jinghong's eyes were bloodshot.

He doesn't care if the rumor is true, so what?With him around, he can make it fake.

"Especially no one in the palace is allowed to dare to talk about it. If someone dares to commit a crime, I don't need to say anything else. The emperor must not let the emperor know about it, understand?"

"Subordinates obey."

"Let Qing An deal with this matter with you. He is the best at disrupting the situation and spreading other rumors, making it difficult to tell whether these rumors are true or false."

After Ling Shuang withdrew, Fu Jinghong calmed down in the small study for a while, then stood up, returning to Xie Yuanjia's side as usual.

"Uncle Huang, you are back." Xie Yuanjia was eating fruit, when he looked up and saw him coming in, he hurriedly beckoned him to come.

Fu Jinghong walked up to him and asked softly, "Is everything done?"

"It's almost done. I should be able to finish it all in the afternoon." Xie Yuanjia replied, "Fortunately, the emperor is with me, otherwise I would be too tired alone."

So I really don't understand why the emperors in ancient times kept centralizing power. It was so painful to review memorials by one person, and they almost died of overwork.

Fu Jinghong smiled but said nothing, his eyes swept past Xie Yuanjia's ear.In any case, with him around, he would not allow anyone to hurt Yuan Jia.

At this moment, Ji Shaoyan and Chun Yuya arrived.

"Huh? Hurry up!" Xie Yuanjia joked, "Look, uncle, every time I want to eat alone, someone will come out to share."

Just as they were talking, Chunyuya and Ji Shaoyan came in. Both of them had more or less anxiety on their faces, but Chunyuya looked more stable, and Ji Shaoyan felt a little anxious.

"What's wrong with you?" Xie Yuanjia was curious, why did these two people look abnormal, what happened?

Ji Shaoyan couldn't hide the matter, and just about to complain, Fu Jinghong interrupted: "It's rare for you two to enter the palace together, why don't you talk to the emperor."

After all, he gave Chunyuya a pointed look.

Chunyuya understood immediately, and immediately cut off Ji Shaoyan's words: "It's also a coincidence, I just met the general outside the palace, and I heard that the general is being urged to get married by his family, so I had a conversation with him, so we came together."

Xie Yuanjiaxin thought it was true, and bent his beautiful eyes with a smile, "No wonder Ji Aiqing looks anxious."

Although Ji Shaoyan didn't understand why Chunyuya and Fu Jinghong interrupted him again and again, he was going crazy and wanted to tell the emperor to deal with those rumormongers.But he still has some brains, knowing that Chunyuya and Fu Jinghong are smarter than him, and there must be a reason for them to shut him up.

Therefore, Ji Shaoyan, the great general who never lied, had no choice but to use his peak acting skills in his life, scratching his head and pretending to be helpless, "The two brothers and sisters-in-law of the minister's family are all in battle, and I really can't stand it, why don't you come to the emperor to hide?"

"Then the old general is about to come to me to cry." Xie Yuanjia said with a smile, "Since everyone is here, let's have dinner together later."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Chunyu Ya thanked him, "I have something to ask the lord, I wonder if the lord is free to give me some advice?"

"Don't dare to give advice." Fu Jinghong said calmly, "It's rare for the Prime Minister to be confused, how can I refuse?"

When Xie Yuanjia heard that they had something to do, he waved his hands generously: "Then you guys go ahead."

Seeing them leave, Ji Shaoyan raised his foot to follow, Xie Yuanjia wondered: "They are going to discuss private matters, does Ai Qing have personal matters?"

"Go back to the emperor, minister... I want to ask the prince how to avoid the family's urging marriage."

Ji Shaoyan replied solemnly.

"Is the emperor so powerful?" Xie Yuanjia sighed, "Then you go."

Ji Shaoyan turned his head, his face full of guilt, the emperor trusted him so much, but he still lied to him, he really shouldn't.

Seeing that they had all left, Xie Yuanjia suddenly lost his appetite looking at a plate of dim sum, "Oh, I just came here, and they all left again."

small study—

"Perhaps the prince already knows about it?" Chun Yuya knew it from his expression.

Fu Jinghong took a sip of tea, "I just found out before Yizhuxiang."

Chun Yuya nodded, "The minister is only an hour earlier than the prince."

Ji Shaoyan saw that they were not in a hurry at all, and he was very anxious: "Can you stop drinking tea and chatting here!? When will you know it's important? The most urgent thing is to find a way to solve this matter!"

"Is it useful?" Fu Jinghong raised his eyes to look at him, "Such a big man, but still so irritable, you haven't learned half of the advantages of your father and your brother."

Although Ji Shaoyan was not convinced by being criticized, he could only bear it. Seeing Fu Jinghong's dead character, he knew that he should have a countermeasure.

"Then what are you going to do?"

Fu Jinghong put down his teacup, his eyes darkened, "I really have to wait for you to discuss it, this matter has long been over."

"The most urgent thing is to stop the spread of rumors and find out the source." Fu Jinghong said coldly.

Chun Yuya nodded in agreement: "That's right. I just learned about it from the teahouse. There aren't many people discussing it. It's most effective to suppress it before they get up."

"I've sent people to do this." Fu Jinghong said, "You said, you also heard it from the teahouse? Are the students discussing it too?"

"Although they are not students, they are all scholars." Chunyuya said earnestly, "I was horrified when I heard that, and I have already severely criticized them, and they are not allowed to spread the word in private, otherwise they will be severely punished."

Fu Jinghong nodded silently, then asked Ji Shaoyan: "What about you? How did you know that?"

"I was just wandering in the street and saw a storyteller setting up a stall, surrounded by a lot of people, so I went up and listened to a few words out of curiosity."

Unexpectedly, hearing these few words almost made Ji Shaoyan's liver and gallbladder burst. He couldn't hold back his temper on the spot and overturned the storyteller's stall.

Fu Jinghong narrowed his eyes slightly, "It looks like I came prepared." He only picked places like Teahouse Street with a lot of traffic, and the rumors were all articulate scholars, so it was difficult for ordinary people to tell the truth from the fake.

"The people behind the scenes are clever." Chunyuya also nodded, "Most of the words from the common people are not credible, but if they are spoken by scholars, they will probably have three points of credibility. If things go on like this, everyone will treat the emperor with confidence." Suspicious."

"Your Excellency, what do you know about the events of that year?" Fu Jinghong turned to him and asked him.

Chun Yuya entered the imperial court many years earlier than Fu Jinghong, so it is normal for him to have heard some secrets but not Fu Jinghong.

"The year my minister was first admitted to the first prize, the emperor was just born." Chunyuya recalled, "But at that time, the late emperor just randomly issued an edict to inform the world of the birth of the nine princes, and there was no news after that. "

"The emperor's mother, she was just a beloved woman back then, she was..." Chunyu Ya paused for a while, and then continued, "She was born as a court lady, and she was lucky enough to be favored by the late emperor once, and she became pregnant, and then she was sealed." Beloved."

"Because Xu Liang was not favored, so the former emperor did not pay much attention to the current emperor and the nine princes." Chunyuya sighed, "As for more information, I don't know, after all, these palace secrets are not my ministers. can know."

Fu Jinghong nodded. It seemed that only Xu Liangren herself, or some confidants around her, could know what happened back then, and it was unlikely that others would know the truth.

"Although she died a long time ago, there must be someone alive around her." Fu Jinghong said, "It's either a confidant maid or a midwife. She can't be stupid enough to entrust such a big job to others."

"That's right, I think so too." Chun Yuya said the same thing, "It's just that Mr. Xu Liang has passed away for ten years, and most of the old people around him have left the palace. It may not be easy to find someone."

"The people behind the scenes can catch it, why can't I?" Fu Jinghong said in a deep voice, "Even if they can't catch it, I will keep her from opening her mouth."

Ji Shaoyan listened to the two of them talking back and forth, and finally couldn't help it: "Why do you say this as if you have confirmed that the identity of the emperor is fake, isn't this a rumor!?"

Fu Jinghong looked at him quietly, as if looking at a mentally retarded person.

Chun Yuya said with a good temper: "It's not that I've settled down, but... if you're not sure, do you think it's possible for the people behind the scenes to take this risk?"

Ji Shaoyan was taken aback.

"So what if it's true, or if it's false?" Fu Jinghong stared at Ji Shaoyan, "If Yuanjia's identity is indeed false, how will the general deal with himself?"

"I..." Ji Shaoyan was at a loss, his limited IQ was not enough to support such an earth-shattering decision.

Fu Jinghong sneered: "The general is dedicated to the country and the country, and if he is not sure, he will turn his head and point his sword at the emperor, to get rid of this serious worry for the royal family."

"You are talking nonsense!" Ji Shaoyan scolded angrily, "I will not point a sword at the emperor! He is my best friend, no matter who he is!"

Chunyuya lowered his head and smiled: "I also feel that it doesn't matter what the emperor's identity is. This country is not Chunyu's surname. Whoever is sitting on the dragon chair has nothing to do with me? I just recognize that one person? As for the others... ...." He raised his head, and his eyes vaguely returned to the look of the somewhat pissed boy back then, "As for the others, if you are an enemy of the emperor, you are an enemy of me."

Fu Jinghong just smiled and said nothing.

Ji Shaoyan gritted his teeth, "Since you are all so straightforward, I won't play any intrigue anymore, what can I do, you just say it!"

The corner of Fu Jinghong's lips twitched.

The three of them originally disliked each other and worked independently without interfering with each other, but unexpectedly one day they suddenly joined forces and formed an alliance for a common goal.

Protect that gentle boy from any harm.

The three giants of the imperial court join forces, even if this matter cannot be handled in the end, who would dare to contend with absolute power?

They say that Yuan Jia is not worthy, so he will tell this country to change its name and make Yuan Jia's name justified!
