A Thousand Gold Order: Inheritance

Chapter 177 Reporting (Part [-])
The emperor had just had lunch and was pulled up from the dragon bed when he was about to take a nap.

Ye Caizhi said that there is a major issue related to the stability of the country, and he must face the saint immediately.

At that time, Eunuch Li was not there, and the young eunuch on duty was unable to make a judgment, and he did not dare to ignore the words of the majestic prime minister rashly, and even reported the truth to the emperor.

The emperor didn't have many important government affairs today, so he rushed to deal with them in the morning, and he had already planned to stay lazy in the afternoon and take a rest.

Then, he hurried back from the palace to the previous dynasty.

Ye Xunyi knelt in the imperial study room, "recalling" what happened in Prince Rui's Mansion with a submissive and humble expression: "At that time, Li Yanhua, a girl from the Li family, once again sweared at each other and took the initiative to provoke her, and the ministers had some quarrels with her. Both of them were out of proportion, and then they accidentally touched a stone at the bottom of the rockery by the lake by His Highness, and a secret room was opened there. There was a strong smell of fire and medicine. The courtier didn't think much about it at first, but after falling into the water, His Royal Highness King Rui actually intended to kill the courtier under the water. Only by injuring him was he able to escape and save his life."

She lowered her head in a submissive manner, never daring to cross the line to see the emperor's reaction: "Later, on the way back to the mansion, the more I thought about it, the more I felt that something was wrong. I remember that my father once mentioned it inadvertently, Sulfur and nitrate items are strictly prohibited from private possession or collection by the imperial court, and contacting His Royal Highness Rui's untimely violent actions, the courtiers dare not hide this matter rashly. They quickly diverted to the outer palace gate to find their father, and asked This matter is serious..."

Having said that, she turned her head slightly to look at the corner of Ye Caizhi's robe standing beside her.

Then, continue: "Your Majesty said that whether you are a subject or a subject, the most important thing is to be loyal to your majesty and the court. No matter whether you are suspicious or not, you should not hide this matter. You must report it to your majesty. His majesty will go to investigate. Decide!"

As the prime minister, Ye Caizhi has always been valued by the emperor, because he often comes and goes in this imperial study, so he is not very restrained, just standing upright.

Just now on the way into the palace, he asked Ye Xunyi what he was holding on to Yun Heng just to make sure of himself.

Ye Xunyi said that Yunheng's mansion hid a large number of brimstone objects, and some firearms were smuggled across the border from overseas.

in order--

Naturally, it is necessary for emergencies. Once the battle for power reaches a fever pitch in the future, these things will be extremely lethal.

In the previous life, these things really helped Yun Heng a lot.

Ye Caizhi is an egoist through and through, and he is not very at ease: "Although the court strictly forbids private hands with black powder, he is the prince after all. If he only keeps a small part of it privately, he can just find a reason to evade it..."

At that time, he felt that Ye Xunyi was unreliable, and said worriedly: "I still say that, he is the prince, and his majesty is the father and son, we are at a disadvantage...to him?"

However, Ye Xunyi sneered: "I don't do things that I'm not sure of. It's a huge batch of black fire. It's an exaggeration to say that it can blow up the entire capital. He, King Rui, doesn't have the ability, but If it is used to level the entire harem, or even most of the imperial city, it is absolutely no problem."

In the previous life, although Yun Heng hated her to the extreme from the bottom of his heart, but because she could help him, Ye Caizhi also acted as if he supported him because of the marriage between the two mansions...

Although Yun Heng has no sincerity towards her, the two are a husband and wife and have always supported each other in doing these important things.

This led to her, Ye Xunyi, knowing all of Yun Heng's trump cards and every step she planned.

Ye Caizhi gasped, and was suddenly shocked into a cold sweat.

At this juncture, Ye Xunyi dared to swear to say such a thing, he instinctively believed it.

Just think about it again: "You also said that the entrance to his secret passage is set by the lake, and sulfur and nitrate are most afraid of getting wet. Presumably, this arrangement is also for the sake of caution. The palace will not be without him Eyeliner, as soon as the father takes you into the palace gate, he will hear the news immediately... Once he leads the lake water into the secret passage and sinks all those things to the bottom of the water, then we will become false accusers again, and there will be no proof .”

The father and daughter plan to fight back, but Yun Heng will not be a fool who just sits and waits to die!

Even if he really hid so many dangerous secret weapons in the mansion, he would definitely make double preparations. After all, everyone cherishes their lives, and no one takes their lives too long.

The corner of Ye Xunyi's lips curled into a sneer that became more and more mocking, and he said firmly: "He is reluctant to part with it!"

The reason why Yunheng built the secret passage by the lake and set up the entrance of the secret passage is indeed to prevent this——

If before he uses those things, his private possession of the black fire is exposed, he can immediately blow it up, pour the lake water into the secret passage, and have no proof.

Moreover, those things are afraid of water. In fact, the secret room he really used to hide those things is quite far away from there. The entrance by the lake is just in case, so as to eliminate the evidence in the fastest way.

In fact, Ye Xunyi was in Prince Rui's Mansion today, even if he opened the entrance to his secret passage, because those black fires were stored very carefully and made several barriers, let alone smell it...

Even if the emperor sent someone to search and go down to the secret passage, it would take a lot of trouble to find out the real location of the secret room.

Yun Heng didn't know the fact of her rebirth, and he had been preparing these things for several years, and it was very hard-won. According to Ye Xunyi's understanding of him...

He was not willing to destroy it until the last moment when he really had to.

Therefore, speed is very important now, as long as she can convince the emperor, and the emperor's actions are fast enough...

You can catch Yunheng right away.

Even, even if he is really willing to go out and drown all the black fire...

His secret passage and secret room extend in all directions, and there are two other entrances and exits in Prince Rui's Mansion. As long as someone is willing to persevere in killing him, it is nothing more than a little more effort. Going down from other entrances, he can always be dug out. The ironclad evidence of the hidden black fire came.

At that time, Ye Caizhi saw her so determined appearance, and he really had no way out, so he simply stopped doubting her.

But he was always tactful in dealing with affairs in the court.

He only brought Ye Xunyi here, and no matter what Ye Xunyi said, he didn't say a word to meddle, and he just regarded himself as a tool to lead the way.

The emperor sat behind the case, his attitude was always easy-going and calm, as if a little unfathomable.

He had been listening to Ye Xunyi's report, not to mention that his rage was out of control...

But he didn't even change the slightest expression.

Ye Caizhi has been by his side for some years, and to be honest, although the emperor generally has no temper...

But because he has such a good temper, Ye Caizhi, an old fox who is good at playing tricks on people's hearts, can't easily guess his heart and grasp his thoughts.

It wasn't until this time that he had no choice but to open his mouth: "My daughter, this minister, is by no means a person who talks nonsense, especially when it concerns the royal family and princes. I believe that she knows the importance. For the sake of fairness and prudence, please Your Majesty send People went to King Rui's mansion to confirm. If there is something else hidden, or it is just a misunderstanding, the minister will plead guilty to His Highness on behalf of my daughter, but if it is true that His Highness King Rui hid the black fire... It is better to find out earlier."

Since he brought Ye Xunyi into the palace, he really didn't have to back down.

If they don't work together to bring down Yunheng, they will be the only ones who will be unlucky.

"Master Zuo is serious. You have always been calm and cautious. I naturally understand that you are not a person who just talks about it." The emperor finally opened his mouth, with an orderly attitude, as if he was just asking about a trivial matter.

He said: "If you have doubts, don't correct them, it is difficult to convince the public. Even my son can't jump out of the constraints of the law."

Ye Caizhi's heart suddenly hung in the air when he heard the first half of his sentence.

What he said was "Ye Xunyi is not a person who talks nonsense", but as soon as the emperor took the blame, he calmly replaced the protagonist of this matter with him!

But it's true—

If it wasn't for his father who is the prime minister, if he wasn't with him, a boudoir girl like Ye Xunyi wouldn't have had the opportunity to kneel here, let alone come to report others in advance.

Ye Caizhi clenched his teeth and lowered his lower eyelids to restrain himself from showing obvious emotions.

Eunuch Li hadn’t returned to the palace yet, so the emperor signaled to the little eunuch who was serving beside him: “Since Prime Minister Zuo’s father and daughter are witnesses, let’s check it out. Little Miaozi, which deputy commander of the imperial army is on duty today? My oral instructions to the Ministry of War, such as gunpowder and firearms, have always been in charge of their control, so ask someone who understands to follow..."

Before Xiao Miaozi could reply, the prince and King Ning just walked in from outside the palace, looking very excited.

The emperor preferred his own son to be dignified and dignified. The crown prince Yun Zhan had special permission to enter and exit the imperial study and the emperor's bedroom without additional notice.

Today Yun Zheng followed suit, and the two brothers came over talking and laughing together.

As a result, before entering the door, I heard someone putting on small shoes for Yun Heng.

Yun Zhan still held a stack of files issued by Dali Temple in his hand. When he entered the door and saw Ye Caizhi's father and daughter, the smile on his face did not even restrain or change at all, as if what he held in his hand had nothing to do with the Ye family's father and daughter. The relationship is mediocre, just smiled and said: "Yo, Mr. Zuoxiang is here?"

Ye Caizhi hurriedly cupped his hands and bowed: "I have seen His Royal Highness, His Highness King Ning."

Ye Xunyi knelt on the ground and didn't dare to raise her head casually, her heart was stuck in her throat in an instant.

The two of Yun and Zhan arrived at this time, they were blocking her way!

If Yun Zhan had reported her plan for Yun Heng and Li Yanhua first, the emperor would have had a preconceived idea...

"Your Majesty!" She bit the bullet and kowtowed immediately, and said loudly: "My daughter guarantees her life, His Royal Highness King Rui hid a black fire in the secret passage by the lake of King Rui's mansion. This kind of thing appeared in the bustling place of the capital. A If you use it carelessly, it will endanger the society and the people's livelihood. Your Majesty has said that since you have decided to investigate thoroughly... the soldiers are precious, so please deal with it quickly!"

The emperor's expression was uncontrollable at that time, and his eyebrows were obviously raised.

That's obvious—

Yo, Ye Caizhi, your daughter is quite capable, is she teaching me how to do things?
Ye Caizhi was so frightened that he quickly knelt down.

Before I can speak——

Yun and Zhan were about to greet the emperor when they were interrupted by Ye Xunyi...

Yun Zheng immediately grasped the important point, and without giving Ye Caizhi a chance to speak, he immediately took a step forward, cupped his hands and said: "Father, the matter of the fourth child is related to the innocence and reputation of the royal family. Although someone reports it, it should be investigated, but for the time being Don't make a lot of fanfare, okay? Just now, Erchen heard a few words outside the palace, and the father is going to send someone to Ruiwang's mansion... Then why don't Erchen follow along. It would be best if it was a misunderstanding, if the fourth brother If there is anything else to say, Erchen can bring him to meet the saint later."

Ye Xunyi's words were not so much pleading for the emperor's orders, as they were meant for him!
Because she knew that Yun Zheng would definitely seize every opportunity to hurt Yun Heng.

And Yun Zheng once again mentioned the emperor's words first...

At this time, Ye Xunyi was startled, and secretly raised his eyes to look at Yun Zhan.

She didn't dare to raise her head too obviously, she couldn't see the other person's face, but saw that he put the hand holding the file behind his back calmly.

really--

The royal family has no family!
His Royal Highness is also looking forward to the downfall of his fourth brother!
Seeing Yun Zhan's actions, she was relieved a lot.

As for after Yunzheng took Yunheng down, would Yunzhan continue to expose her old background and sue the emperor...

She couldn't care less for now.

The emperor had indeed spoken first, and it was impossible for him to turn a blind eye to the black fire hidden in Yunheng's place.

Yun Zheng stepped forward, but he didn't refute it directly, and gave Xiao Miaozi a wink: "Just as I said just now, I ordered you to go with King Ning. There is no doubt about the crime, so I will go first." The edict is no longer issued, you can go and spread the message."

Xiao Miaozi is the successor that Eunuch Li trained for him. Although his rank is not too high, everyone knows that he is the emperor's confidant.

As soon as Yun Zheng led the people away, the emperor's expression relaxed again, and he looked at his prince: "Aren't you not going to enter the palace today? Why are you here to disturb me at this hour?"

After Ye Xunyi's rebirth, although he entered the palace several times, he never had the opportunity to observe the relationship between the emperor and the crown prince up close.

In her impression, the relationship between the emperor in the previous life and sons like Yunheng and Yunzheng was very ordinary, and when they met occasionally, they would just deal with the scene and ask about some of their private affairs, such as their heirs.

But now-

He treated himself, the prince, with a relaxed and cheerful attitude, as if a father of a market family treated his son.

This discovery made Ye Xunyi a little confused.

Yun Zhan was not cautious in front of the emperor, but he still hid the dossier, just haha: "It's all small things, the fourth brother's matter is big, father should deal with your matter first, or else You and Mr. Zuoxiang discuss matters first? The birthday banquet at the fourth brother's house was not completed today, and my son is going to the side hall, can you give me a lunch?"

What he said sounded like a gag, but in fact he had said everything he should have said to the emperor.

Ye Xunyi's heart that just fell back to reality——

The next moment it was lifted up violently.

She was terrified and the emperor continued to ask, why the birthday banquet at Prince Rui's Mansion didn't go through?

but--

The emperor did not!

He just waved his hand warmly: "Go."

Yun Zhan thanked him, then bowed his hands and withdrew.

Afterwards, the emperor seemed to have no intention of beating or drying Ye Caizhi deliberately, and called his father and daughter to get up.

He didn't say anything extra about settling Ye Xunyi, Ye Xunyi was standing in this hall, and he himself dragged Ye Caizhi to the nearby Nuan Pavilion to play chess.

Now that Yun Zheng is gone, it is naturally impossible for him to come back soon.

Yun Zhan was probably not interested in watching the two old men play chess. Later, when the emperor saw that he had not been seen for a long time, he asked a question, and the people below said that he had fallen asleep in the side hall.

The emperor didn't care about him anymore.

Then, Eunuch Li came back.

Seeing Ye Caizhi here, he naturally couldn't report the matter about Princess Zhaoyang at this time, but he is a stinky chess basket, but he seems to be very addicted to chess, standing beside the emperor gesticulating, talking excitedly, wishing he could roll up his sleeves and do it himself .

The emperor was so angry that he blushed and almost flipped the chessboard several times, but unexpectedly, these three people with very different identities got together and played chess all afternoon.

Yun Zheng didn't return to the palace until it was almost dark, and Yun Heng also came with him.

After Ye Xunyi left, Yun Heng was really lucky. He never expected that Ye Xunyi would be able to gain insight into his deepest secrets just by touching the mechanism next to the rockery.

Those things were acquired by him endlessly, and they were also his family property that had been stored for many years, so naturally he would not destroy them cruelly just because of a little suspicion.

until—

Yun Zheng brought people from the imperial army and the Ministry of War to the door, saying that he wanted to check his house according to the emperor's order.

In Yunheng's mansion, the most difficult to withstand investigation is the batch of black flames.

He knew that even if he broke his own arm, he would have to destroy these things...

Detonating it directly would definitely not work, because that amount was enough to raze his entire palace to the ground, so he dragged Yun Zheng at the door for a while, and ordered someone to blow up the secret road by the lake.

Yun Zheng heard the noise and rushed into the mansion by force.

The entrance to the secret path was blocked by cracked rocks, and more than half of it was submerged in the lake, so it was obviously not easy to dig open.

But it was hard to catch Yun Heng's braid, how could he let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and ordered people to search inch by inch in Prince Rui's Mansion, and finally found another entrance to the secret passage.

Although the entire underground secret passage was filled with water, the entrance and exit over there were intact. He found someone who was good at water and went down, groping a little...

After spending the whole afternoon, I finally found the secret room where the black gunpowder was submerged in the water.

And because he brought the emperor's imperial envoy, Mr. Miaozi, and the forbidden army, Yun Heng couldn't openly resist the order to stop him.

After all this tossing, when the evidence was conclusive and he was taken into the palace, it was almost dark.

The emperor just lost the game under the command of Eunuch Li. He came out of the Nuan Pavilion cursingly, and went back to the case. He looked at his own fourth prince who was kneeling in front of him with a disheveled face: "Tell me, how did your treasures come to the capital?" What? Also, why did you put those things in the mansion?"

His tone was loose and lazy, although he was not angry but mighty...

But it was still far from Ye Xunyi's expected reaction.

As for Yun Heng, knowing that it was Ye Xunyi who ruined his many years of planning, since entering the palace, he almost blatantly stared at her with a cold and sinister look.

Ye Xunyi is at odds with him, so he is not afraid of being stared at by him.

Only then did Yun Heng respectfully kowtow to the emperor, and he said: "My minister's house is short of money, so I was obsessed with ghosts for a while, and hoarded some nitrates, and wanted to keep them in the festivals to make fireworks and firecrackers." sell……"

Ye Xunyi was taken aback for a moment!
Because she knew in advance the real purpose of Yunheng's hoarding of these things, they would be used to arrange them in the city in the future, threatening the emperor, so as to force the palace to seize the throne.

This is the felony of a hundred deaths and no redemption!

Because the preconceived impression was too deep, she only waited for Yun Heng to fall with confidence, but unexpectedly——

She even forgot that Yun Heng would make excuses.

At this time, Yun Heng has not arranged the gunpowder in the imperial city, or even the harem, he is only temporarily stored in his own mansion, even if she jumped out and said that Yun Heng hoarded these for rebellion...

The emperor may believe it in his heart, but the current evidence is not enough to prove that these things are used by Yun Heng to kill the king!
and so--

She might...

There is no way to completely put Yun Heng to death this time?
The next moment, Ye Xunyi was really at a loss for what to do.

The crown prince Yun Zhan was full of sleep at this time, and he walked in slowly after stretching outside the palace. After seeing the emperor, he stood by the side to watch the play.

Ye Xunyi stared nervously at the emperor's reaction.

His majesty, the emperor with a gentle temperament, really didn't intend to get rid of his son just because of this. He lowered his face and knocked on the table: "Don't avoid the important ones, gunpowder is a forbidden substance. What I'm asking you is where you got those in your mansion." here?"

Yun Heng gritted his teeth and refused to speak.

The emperor questioned him again to no avail, and lost his patience: "Okay, okay, talk about it if you like, pass on my order, first shut him up in the Zhaoxia Palace next to the Leng Palace, and tell him to shut himself up and think about his mistakes. Think about it clearly, and whenever you want to talk, you can talk to me. Li Baohong, the Ministry of Military Affairs, the Ministry of Punishment, and Dali Temple, let me go and investigate this matter clearly!"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Eunuch Li responded softly, walked over in person, and invited Yun Heng politely, "Your Highness, don't make things difficult for Your Majesty, please?"

Yun Heng kowtowed to the emperor again before getting up, before leaving, he was blatant again, and gave Ye Xunyi a hard look.

Both Ye Xunyi and Ye Caizhi understood the warning in his eyes——

As long as he doesn't die, even if he falls this time, then even if he dies in the future, he will definitely drag their father and daughter on his back!
