The paranoid prince is crazy, but I have been quietly reborn

Chapter 147 Can You Actually Get the Empress Dowager's Help?

The next day, the whole of Kyoto was baptized by heavy rain, revealing a clean color.

Last night's appalling wind and autumn rain had stopped, and withered leaves were everywhere, and there was an unpleasant smell mixed with rain and mud.

One autumn rain and one cold, the cold winter in Kyoto may be coming soon.

Dispersed early in the morning, in the Palace of Qinzheng.

The emperor looked at the evidence that Chu Nan and Chu Yu submitted together and the several boxes of gold ingots that were brought in, and his hands trembled with anger.

"Snapped!"

He slammed the memorial on the table.

With a sullen face, he paced back and forth angrily with his hands behind his back. After a while, he shouted loudly again.

"Come here, let the prince enter the palace immediately!"

"Does the prince know what's in this box?"

The queen mother hummed, and said earnestly.

Chu Wen was angry but did not dare to refute. He knew very well that he was not doing well in the matter of Zizhou, and the emperor's little satisfaction with him was slowly being exhausted.

"The queen mother is wise."

As soon as the emperor heard it, he knew the purpose of the empress dowager's coming to Qinzheng Hall, and after a moment of contemplation, he nodded slightly.

"It's a good thing if you find it."

Chu Yu knew that there was a good actor in his house, but he didn't know that the prince was also a good actor, so he couldn't help but chuckled.

"Ai's family went to Linglong Temple, and the emperor didn't go to pay his respects for a few days after he came back. Ai's family was thinking about you, so he came to have a look."

The emperor snorted coldly, flicked his dragon robe, and sat back behind the table.

Chu Yu knew that Chu Wen would not confess his guilt obediently, and he didn't intend to get Chu Wen out just because of Zizhou's incident. After all, Chu Lian still had the queen and the Lu family behind him.

The queen mother looked kindly and raised her hand.

Chu Yu's eyes turned cold.

"How is that girl You Ning?"

"Third brother, if you have something to say, you may as well speak up."

A smile appeared on the queen mother's face, and she got up slowly, and Madam Xia immediately came up to help her.

"There's no need to be too polite, let's all get up."

He never expected that Chu Lian would not keep his promise, and what made him even more angry was that someone revealed his plan to Chu Lian, giving him a chance to breathe.

The emperor's face was terribly dark, and his voice was extremely cold.

The emperor stood up, put his hands behind his back, and walked out from behind the desk.

"My son doesn't know."

"Nowadays, the princes are all the faces of the Southern Dynasty when they go out. If they make mistakes or do things unfavorably, it is better to give more advice in private, so that everyone does not need to know."

"These gold ingots are stored in major banks in Kyoto, and the person who deposits these gold ingots in the bank is His Royal Highness, yours."

Eunuch Lin walked forward quickly, not forgetting to whisper.

Some people can't help but mention that it is probably because they have taken the right to investigate and supervise the matter of Chu Nan and Chu Yuzi Prefecture these days.

The emperor stepped forward with a smile, his tone soft.

The emperor nodded.

"The news about Zizhou has been widely circulated. Are these gold ingots made from those gold mines?"

What happened to Chu Lian went wrong, and it can be explained that he had a strong desire to survive, but he was assassinated on the way back to the capital.

Chu Wen had a calm expression on his face.

"Second brother really doesn't know?"

Glancing at Chu Yu, who was lazily sitting in a wheelchair, and Chu Nan, who was standing indifferently by the side, Chu Wen's eyes finally fell on several large boxes of gold ingots in the hall.

After the emperor and all the princes got up, the queen mother found a seat at random and sat down, knowing the purpose of her trip and had to speak up.

Chu Wen couldn't help but look happy, if the Zizhou case was returned to him, then everything would be perfect.

As a result, he lost the opportunity to deal with Zizhou, and he was also excluded from Zizhou.

Chu Wen shook his head.

He was completely flustered, not knowing how these gold ingots were searched out, but he had to pretend to be calm.

"Third brother is really good at joking. I have never seen these gold ingots before, so why did they get involved with me? Could it be that you have made no progress in the Zizhou case and want to close it at will?"

Chu Wen, who was discussing matters with the disciples in the prince's mansion, was suddenly summoned and was puzzled.

Chu Wen was startled and asked very respectfully.

"The emperor lost his temper in the Palace of Qinzheng, be careful."

Now, it's not difficult for Chu Wen to guess!
This assassination was nothing more than Chu Lian's revenge or other princes attacking him.

"My son sees my father."

"It's my son who is unfilial."

The queen mother is dressed in a luxurious and dignified bright yellow palace dress. Although she has silver hair all over her head, she has a shrewd and solemn expression. She puts one hand on Nanny Xia's wrist, and the other hand wears a delicate and luxurious armor casually hanging on her shoulders. By your side, come slowly.

The person who came was actually the Queen Mother!
This surprised Chu Yu, how could Chu Wen get the help of the Queen Mother?
The emperor's angry expression immediately eased.

Chu Wen suddenly had a bad premonition, his face darkened, and now he could only ask the queen for help.

When Chu Wen heard it, he seemed to have heard an incredible joke, and let out a chuckle.

Chu Wen lowered his eyes slightly, and said calmly.

Originally, when he went to Zizhou, he had already arranged everything, and he had also agreed with Chu Lian, but it was a shame to say that it was agreed.

Eunuch Lin was waiting inside the door, and when he saw Chu Wen, he saluted calmly.

"The third brother spends so much time searching the bank, is it possible that the origin of these gold ingots is unknown?"

"Third Highness and Fourth Highness are inside, and they brought several boxes of things in."

"Ai's family has learned a lot from Linglong Temple. The birthday of Ai's family is coming soon. The emperor should not be too strict."

"The son has seen the mother."

"The gold ingots were found from major banks in Kyoto."

Chu Wen raised his eyebrows, but there was no abnormality in his voice.

It's just that Eunuch Lin is also a fine person. Knowing that Chu Wen and Dongchang have a good relationship, he couldn't help but remind him in a low voice.

"Aijia didn't disturb the emperor's business, did he?"

The emperor bowed slightly when he heard this, with a trace of apology.

However, he also had a hard time after returning to the capital, and was severely reprimanded by the queen.

The queen mother nodded in satisfaction, and suddenly her loving eyes fell on Chu Yu who was in the wheelchair.

"Since the prince doesn't know, then Yu'er, tell me."

Eunuch Lin nodded.

"Dare to ask Eunuch, are there other people in the Palace of Qinzheng?"

"Thank you, Grandmother, for your concern. The princess is fine."

The emperor immediately stepped forward and led the princes to salute.

"The Queen Mother is here!"

"See His Royal Highness."

The queen mother waved her hand, suddenly saw several boxes of gold ingots above the main hall, and asked.

Sure enough, before he could open his mouth to reveal the evidence, a high-pitched voice came from outside the door.

After pondering all the way, I arrived at the gate of the palace.

Chu Yu pursed his lips and smiled.

"The grandson has met the imperial grandmother, the imperial grandmother Wanan!"

"What the queen mother said is that the son obeys the instruction."

Fortunately, the queen and the governor of Dongchang interceded for him in Kyoto, so that he would not be reprimanded by the emperor even if he made no progress within ten days.

"What the queen mother said was just a private conversation between the son and the princes."

Chu Yu leaned lazily on the side of the wheelchair, folded his hands casually on his lap, and listened to the emperor's order, and opened his mouth coldly.

Now that the emperor is in his prime, he is the crown prince at the moment, but there is no guarantee that he will lose the position of crown prince once these things are over.

"Eunuch Lin, please send someone to the Kunning Palace to send a letter to the queen after entering the hall!"

"Does the prince know where these gold ingots were found?"

Lifting up the hem of the brocade robe, Chu Wen entered the Palace of Qinzheng.

The Queen Mother nodded slightly.

"Naturally, these are all high-quality gold ingots."

"Okay, Ai's family just came to see you, and I feel at ease seeing the emperor's well-being of Ai's family."

The emperor led the crowd to send the empress dowager off respectfully.

The Queen Mother had just stepped out of the Qinzheng Palace with one foot, when she suddenly thought of something and looked back at Chu Yu.

"Yu'er, let that girl You Ning come into the palace tomorrow to talk to Ai's family."
