I want to be a grandson

Chapter 43: Yao Guangxiao's Alertness

In the capital, following the burial of the prince Zhu Biao, it also calmed down, but in the streets and alleys, in the conversations of the people from time to time, they still talked about the benevolence of the prince.

Yao Guangxiao was wearing gray and black robes, and wandered around teahouses and restaurants, places where low-level people gather, in order to inquire about news.

At this time, he was drinking tasteless tea at a simple herbal tea stand.

The taste of the tea here is really not flattering, but one advantage is that the quantity is large, so it also attracts many hardworking people who do physical work.

I just listened to these common people talking about the world and talking about it, and soon they talked about the prince Zhu Biao.

"The prince is still benevolent, he has done so many good deeds for us people...it's a pity..."

"How else should Zhan Hui be killed! He actually killed the prince, what a beast!"

"Beating him to death that day was cheap for him! He should be cut into pieces!"

"Hey hey hey... I'm telling you the truth! The man even snatched a piece of meat that day!"

When others heard it, they immediately regained their spirits and quickly asked, "How is it? How does it taste?"

"Tell us quickly!"

The man picked up a bowl of tea, and said very proudly, "Huh! The man ordered a bowl of soju and swallowed it raw, that would be a pleasure!"

"Ouch, Old Zhang is still amazing!"

"Awesome! One day I squeezed my head but I couldn't squeeze in. There are too many people..."

"Then I'm better than you, and I punched Zhan Hui..."

The more Yao Guangxiao heard it, the more frightened he became. As a master of conspiracies and tricks, he could clearly feel that there must be a conspiracy in it!

Someone wants to kill Zhan Hui!
Otherwise, it is absolutely impossible to have such an influence among the people!

On the same day, I received the news of the death of Prince Zhu Biao, but it was sent out immediately after Zhu Biao's death. The next thing has not happened yet, so I don't know at all.

I didn't expect there to be such a hidden secret!
And Yao Guangxiao can conclude that this is definitely not Zhu Yuanzhang's handwriting.

If it was Zhu Yuanzhang, as long as he released a little bit of distaste for Zhan Hui, those censor officials and officials who were at odds with Zhan Hui would immediately go up and bite him, and it didn't take that much effort at all.

Is someone else trying to get rid of Zhan Hui through the death of the prince?

Or is someone really going to avenge the prince?

Yao Guangxiao couldn't wait to inquire again, and soon, he got a lot of news.

After many inquiries, Yao Guangxiao also gradually cleared his mind.

First, someone bribed the storyteller to publicize the benefits of the prince in the city to win the hearts of the people; then they asked the people in Zhan Hui's mansion to release news to arouse hostility among the officials.

Then he played a game to lure Zhan Hui's bastard to speak out, and got the ironclad evidence that put Zhan Hui to death!

One ring after another, rings overlapping, even Zhan Hui has ten lives and it's not enough to kill him!
This kind of trick is to kill Zhan Hui!

And it was launched overnight, without giving Zhan Hui any chance to escape!

Yao Guangxiao understood that if he wanted to find out who did it, he could only find it from the person who played against Zhan Hui's son!
Because whether it is to confuse the people or bribe the servants, there is no need for someone with weight to come forward.

But it's different when it comes to the game. Most people don't dare to offend the son of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, let alone make a big deal on the spot, so as to alarm the soldiers and horses.

Either this person is the mastermind, but the possibility of the mastermind is very small, if he dares to overthrow the six ministers, and dares to do this, he must have a helper.

So there is no need for him to come forward in person.

Therefore, the person who made the game that day became the key to finding the mastermind!

Therefore, Yao Guangxiao had no choice but to take a little risk and go to Wei Guogong's mansion after thinking about it.

Because Yao Guangxiao knew that there must be many envoys of feudal lords working in the capital at this time, but he couldn't do this.It's better to avoid suspicion, lest the emperor be dissatisfied with King Yan.

But this matter must also be clarified, otherwise it is like a night hunter being stared at, and he is alert, and he can feel the dangerous breath spraying on his neck.

But he didn't know who was hiding in the dark, or even where he was hiding. He only knew that he was holding a killing tool in his hand, and he would kill himself at any time!
Why doesn't this make him feel uncomfortable all over, and it's hard to sit and sleep.

Yao Guangxiao understood that it would be better to concentrate on paying homage to the prince at this time, but if this matter is not resolved, he will have no peace in his heart.

So I had to let others go to worship, but I acted separately, because he was not important in the list of envoys, and it might not cause others to notice.

Yao Guangxiao did not sneak into Wei Guogong's mansion when he came to Duke Wei's mansion. Instead, he brought his attendants and gifts with him, and in the name of following the order of Princess Yan, he entered the palace openly.

Yao Guangxiao knew that even if people found out, it was only Zhan's flaws, and it wasn't a big deal.

But if he sneaked around in private and was noticed by Jin Yiwei, it would make people suspicious.

Xu Da's eldest son Xu Huizu inherited the title of Wei Guogong, but he was not at home, so his younger brother Xu Zengshou took care of the family.

Xu Zengshou has a handsome appearance and beautiful eyebrows. According to the aesthetics of this era, he is a proper handsome man.

At this time, Xu Zengshou was receiving Yao Guangxiao, and after a polite exchange of greetings, both parties sat down.

Xu Zengshou once fought together under the Yan Wang Zhu Di, and his sister is also the Yan Wang Concubine, and Zhu Di is not a mediocre person, so Xu Zengshou is naturally very affectionate to him.

And he also naturally knew that Yao Guangxiao was a monk in name, but in fact he was his brother-in-law's confidant and adviser, so he would treat each other with courtesy.

Yao Guangxiao said politely: "Princess Yan misses her family very much. This time, I specially ordered the poor monk to bring some specialties from Peiping to express my affection."

Xu Zengshou said politely: "Master Lao, please take me with you when you return to Beiping to say hello."

And let the servants retreat, not to be disturbed.

He took the initiative to get closer and said: "Master, there are no outsiders here, so you can speak freely. Now that the crown prince has passed away, and the emperor is getting old, in order to stabilize the situation in the court, he will definitely establish a crown prince early. I don't know how I can help."

Yao Guangxiao smiled and said: "Second Lord has such a heart, the poor monk will definitely report to King Yan and Princess Wang."

"Master, you are welcome..."

Yao Guangxiao continued: "If the emperor appoints a crown prince again, then the situation is very obvious. Either choose among several sons and vassal kings, or establish the emperor's grandson. The poor monk is not very clear about the East Palace, so I would like to ask the second master to explain one or two things. .”

When Xu Zengshou heard this, he couldn't help frowning, and said suspiciously: "The emperor is old, and the grandson of the East Palace is young, can he still be a grandson?"

Yao Guangxiao obviously didn't want to explain too much, but said: "It's better to believe what is there or not to believe what is not, and to make plans in advance to deal with unexpected events."

Xu Zengshou nodded and said: "Now there are two older grandsons in the East Palace. One is Zhu Yunqi, the son of the prince's step-concubine Lu. His benevolent heart is quite appreciated by the emperor and civil servants."

"As for the other one...he is the second son of the Crown Prince and the Chang family. He has a submissive personality and should not allow the Crown Prince to care about him. He should be completely non-threatening."

Yao Guangxiao stroked his beard in thought, and suddenly asked, "Zhan Hui's son was caught on the spot, who was there at the time?"
