The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 489

Then he suddenly thought of the money that the boss sent a few days ago, his face sank, the money was really hot to hold.

The second prince came today to talk about this matter, but also to intercede for the two brothers.The two princes have suffered, but he is alone.It is inevitable that outsiders will have bad speculations, and this is the right time for him to show respect as a brother and friend.

"Father!" Seeing the emperor's face suddenly sinking, the second prince hesitated.

After thinking about it, if I don't mention it today, after two days my father forgives those two people, then there is nothing wrong with him.Besides, his eldest brother was kneeling outside the door, and he didn't say a word, so his father would inevitably feel that he was cold.

"Eldest brother has been kneeling for two days. Why don't you call elder brother in and ask what's going on, so that elder brother can atone for his crimes. Besides, the third child has been locked up in the mansion for several days. Since there is no fraud case, Do you think you can spare the third brother?"

What the eldest prince said was unclear, and the second prince also wanted to find out the truth.

The emperor took a deep look at the second prince. Although the second child also had small thoughts, he still cared about brotherhood.

"Hmph! Now it's for your sake that I give him a chance to clarify the facts. De'an, go and call the eldest prince in."

De'an took the order and trotted out of the imperial study room, but he knew it clearly.The emperor is looking at the second prince's face, isn't this because the first prince has come to kneel for two consecutive days, and his heart softened?

When going out, he glanced at Xiao Quanzi who was standing outside the imperial study room, and scolded: "Follow me."

The eldest prince has been kneeling for so long, how can he support the eldest prince by himself?

Xiao Quanzi hurriedly shivered, and trotted to keep up.

"Your Highness, the eldest prince, the emperor asked this old slave to invite you in!" Dean stepped forward to help the eldest prince after finishing speaking.

Xiao Quanzi also stepped forward to help, but the eldest prince was kneeling all the time, losing all feeling in his legs.Now when I was lifted up, my knees hurt so badly that I couldn't walk at all.

The eldest prince was carried into the study by De'an and Xiao Quanzi. As soon as he entered the study, he struggled and fell to the ground.

"Father, my son has done something wrong, so my father only needs to punish my son. Father, please don't get angry, otherwise, my son will die." The eldest prince blamed himself all over his face. , looking at the emperor with tears in his eyes, full of remorse.

De'an stood beside the book case, with his head lowered, and he couldn't help but admire the great prince's good skills in his heart.The emperor had already softened his heart towards him, if he did this trick again, after all, he was the eldest son who had loved him for so many years, how could the emperor not forgive him?

The emperor saw that the eldest prince seemed to be sincerely repenting, and looked at him with admiration, which reminded him of the eldest prince when he was a child.At that time, he did something wrong, and he looked at himself like this, afraid of being punished by himself.

In fact, the eldest prince's ultimate goal in doing these things is also for himself. Although there are some unscrupulous methods in the process, there is still filial piety.If he didn't see himself worrying about money all day long and wanted to share his worries, he wouldn't have done such absurd things.

However, it shouldn't be wrong to harm the two veteran ministers in the court later.Wan Xuenian was so loyal to him, but now he can't end well, how could the Wan clan be reconciled?

Now Wan Xuenian's coffin is still parked in the mourning hall of Wan Mansion, if Wan's is not given an explanation, it will not only chill the heart of the old minister, but also make the spine poked by the people of the world.

"Now I will give you a chance to explain this matter in detail."

The second prince was given a seat and sat on an armchair beside him. He looked at the first prince who was kneeling in the lower room.But he was thinking in his heart that his father might have softened his heart a long time ago, and he came at the right time, and he happened to step down the steps of his father.

The first prince pondered for a moment, then glanced at the second prince, knowing that his father would not like him to tell the truth.What is the purpose of the second child?Isn't it just to spread the so-called truth through the mouth of the second child?
"The servants of the money really don't know the origin. The ministers also got the news from Guo Shina, saying that Lord Wan and Lord Song were cheating. I had some trouble with the two adults before, so I wanted Guo Shi to investigate it. As for Who Guo Shi was instigated by, but the son did not know. In the subsequent confession, Guo Shi thought he had something to do with the son, so he put all these things on the son."

The First Prince had already thought of an excuse, and now he said it with confidence, as if it was true.

The emperor's face is slightly condensed, it seems that the boss has a lot of scheming!He glanced at the second child sitting on the seat, and saw surprise on his simple and honest face, as if he didn't expect the truth to be like this.

In fact, the second prince's heart was turned upside down. He didn't expect that the elder brother had already thought of a countermeasure. This was completely a backlash.

It seems that the eldest brother will not receive multiple punishments this time. The second prince only thinks that Wan Xuenian died for nothing. He is afraid that he will be charged with many crimes after his death. Even Song Shujing will not be spared. The 20 taels When the silver entered the other courtyard of the two families, it became a reminder for those two people.

The emperor's mind was tossed, for the dignity of the royal family, the boss's words were the best proposal.If the people of the world know that the eldest prince framed the veterans of the court and acted recklessly, what money will there be?
How can such a prince with a lack of virtue become one of the heirs of Dayan Jiangshan?

The emperor closed his eyes, he was not indifferent to Wan Xuenian's death.But since this matter is already wrong, it can only be wrong.

People are always involuntary, everyone has their own helplessness, even if he is an emperor, he can't do whatever he wants.

"According to what you said, there is another person behind Guo Shi?" The emperor seemed to be very surprised, his eyes were like sharp arrows, and the eldest prince was shocked.

"My son doesn't know yet, that Guo Shi was interrogated by Mr. Hu, and now he is handed over to Dali Temple. My son is just guessing, otherwise I can't explain why Guo Shi did this."

The eldest prince is not at all panicked about lying in front of the second prince, but he always feels guilty when facing his father.

The emperor would not believe his words, but in order to make up for his reputation, he even abandoned the loyal old officials in the past. The eldest prince would not think that it was all for him, and the money played a big role.

"Hmph! It's been two days, and Kuang Zhaoying hasn't moved, and he hasn't asked why yet." The emperor felt a little upset when he thought of Guo Shi who was still locked up in Dali Temple.

Guo Shi can't stay!
The second prince spoke in a timely manner, "Father, Guo Shi is really hateful, and he was not ordered by anyone. The elder brother was also wronged."

The second prince walked out of the palace gate, turned around and forgot to look at the majestic palace, his simple and honest face suddenly sank, and he sneered.

He could already guess the outcome of this matter, and he was afraid that Guo Shi would die violently in prison in these two days.

And it is impossible for Wan Xuenian and Song Shujing to redress their grievances in the end. Without the charge of cheating in the imperial examination, they can also have other charges!
For example, searching for people's fat and people's anointing, accepting bribes, and opening the door for merchants who want to take advantage of loopholes.
