Changde had been serving the imperial court for decades, so how could he not understand Emperor Taikang's thoughts and the seriousness of the matter, so he didn't dare to say a word, and immediately went to deliver the decree.

The imperial decree was planned to be issued soon, and Song Yuan received the news while hiding at home. She leaned on the guide pillow and fiddled with the jade ring lock in her hand, her mind went back and forth several times, and soon she understood the imperial decree's intention .

"It's time for the crown prince to be ill." If the news of his illness reaches Zhongshan, it will only further mislead King Zhongshan and make King Zhongshan act more impulsively and arrogantly.

The guard who took care of her was puzzled, and said: "Before Tingwei's mansion reported to the emperor, the prince cried and shouted that he was wronged, and there was a lot of trouble. Now the Tingwei's mansion found out that he fell ill. It's miserable."

"I didn't realize that he can act like this before." Song Yuan undid all the locks of Yuhuan, and filled the table with bits and pieces: "Go and prepare some things, prepare the car, I'm going to visit the doctor."

The guard hurriedly reminded: "Would it be inappropriate for the young master to go out now?"

"Only by visiting a sick person with a wound can we be sincere."

The guard stopped trying to persuade him, and immediately told the steward what he was going to visit.

She didn't post the post in advance at all, and came to the East Palace suddenly towards the evening of that day, and waited in the Ming Hall for a long time before Song Jun trotted over. When she entered the door, she saw her sitting quietly on a chair, lost in thought, and her pace became faster and faster.

"This group of irrelevant slaves just left you here." Song Juan was a little indignant: "How is your injury? You haven't recovered yet, why are you here?"

Song Yuan raised the corners of his mouth: "Knowing that His Royal Highness is unwell, as a junior, I naturally want to visit, and I also heard about the emperor's decree, and I feel that there are some twists and turns in it, which is really obscure, so Come and ask for advice."

"Well, I'm afraid it won't work. My father is still very weak. I just came out of his room and I haven't woken up yet." Song Juan glanced at the waiter waiting beside him, and lowered his voice: "I I know you came here to complain about Uncle Wu, but it’s probably useless for you to talk to my father about some things. Why don’t you go to my fourth brother, he is the best at distinguishing right from wrong. Although there are conflicts between our two families, this kind of matter still needs to be investigated. Just be clear."

Song Yuan suddenly felt that he was so naive that he actually believed that Song Shi would help her. She couldn't help it, so she laughed: "The fourth cousin is seriously injured. I really don't want to bother you. Please help me and tell the crown prince for me. His Highness asked him how confident he was that my father would bow his head and plead guilty."

She insisted so much, but Song Jun didn't persuade her any more, and called the servant with a sulky face, "Take the Ninth Young Master to the nearby Nuan Pavilion to rest, a blind thing, can't tell that the master is unwell?"

The servant was shocked by the scolding, and hurriedly asked Song Yuan to move.

Song Yuan followed to Nuange, sat on the soft cushions, waited for about half an hour, and it was getting dark outside, at this time a servant came and said that the prince had woken up, let Song Yuan go .

The prince's bedroom is very simple, the most eye-catching thing is the neatly arranged books and piles of scroll paintings, he was lifted up and sat on the bed, his gray hair was a little messy, his cheeks were swollen, he looked sick indeed, Song After Yuan saw the ceremony, a servant brought a stool and asked her to sit down and talk. Except for Song Jun, all the servants of the imperial physician withdrew.

"Cough, cough, cough..." The prince coughed several times, and his voice was hoarse: "You haven't recovered from your injury, why bother to go through this?"

Song Yuan responded politely: "His Royal Highness is an elder, and as a junior, he should naturally come to visit."

This kind of scene is just talking, and the crown prince will not take it seriously. He turned his head and looked at her slightly: "Although Tingwei's mansion has been investigated, it is still necessary for your father to come to Beijing to argue. The emperor is willing to give him this opportunity. So is Gu." Yes, if you come here now, do you still want to persuade Gu to tolerate him?"

Song Yuan smiled: "His Royal Highness himself believes that this case is set up by the Wangfu to blame the East Palace? Sometimes it is not a good habit to deceive yourself and others."

"Yuaner!" Song Jun immediately reminded her not to talk to the prince like this.

The prince waved his hand and didn't care too much: "The evidence is so strong, what does it matter whether you believe it or not? The important thing is that the emperor and all the officials believe it. The case that Huo Ying personally investigated in Ting Wei's Mansion can be false?"

"Indeed, it is absolutely impossible for Huo Yingcha's case to be adulterated, not to mention the ironclad evidence. The evidence of all the witnesses involved in this case is so perfect that even Ting Wei's mansion failed to find out the tricks in it. , the juniors are deeply impressed."

There was something in her words, Song Jun didn't sound right, his expression was thoughtful, he looked at Song Yuan and then at the prince, not sure if he was thinking too much.

The prince looked at Song Yuan calmly, so what if he doubted it?If you can't find evidence, you can only admit it, and it's useless to say more.

"Since the day when the news was published, all kinds of news must have been sent to Zhongshan. My father is the most suspicious, but the relationship with me is tense. I am afraid that he would rather believe that outsiders will not believe me, so it is very easy to mislead him. , now that the emperor summons him to the capital, it seems to him that he is going to the capital to avenge his crimes, does His Royal Highness think he will come?"

The prince smiled: "If you don't come, you will not obey the order."

"Yes, if you don't come, you will not obey the order. If you don't obey the order, you can only go against it. The emperor has ordered that the army should not move rashly. If he dares to mobilize the army, the crime of treason will be confirmed. But His Royal Highness is so sure. , the Wuzhao army can’t act rashly, is this just aimed at my father?”

The prince's smile stopped, and Song Yuan continued: "His Royal Highness, have you forgotten that your brother is not only my father and king, some of them died, but their children and grandchildren are still there, your nephew, the emperor's nephew, three generations There are hundreds of direct descendants in the family, and they are all qualified to sit on the throne.

Although they have lived in peace all these years, but whose family has ever produced a scumbag?Who is not skilled in horseback riding and archery?If my father is named as a traitor, even if there is the emperor's will to suppress them, they can still send troops to the king. Does His Royal Highness think that they will obediently return to the fief after getting rid of my father? "

The prince was silent, he was questioned, to be honest, he didn't consider this step, in his plan, if he forced King Zhongshan and killed him, he could directly ask Emperor Taikang to abdicate, those royal families have been in peace for so long Yes, he didn't take them seriously, but Song Yuan's problem was very real. As long as the king of Zhongshan rebelled, those people would follow the king to send troops. When the time comes when the military power is in hand, how many people will be obedient?
The kings of the Great Wei Dynasty all succeeded to the throne by relying on soldiers and horses. The tradition of martial arts is engraved in everyone's bones. It is difficult to guarantee that no one will have evil intentions to fish in troubled waters.

"Those people are already defeated. Now it is a duel between you and my father, but you will only give those people a chance if you force against my father. The emperor is old. If there is a big chaos at this time, the East Palace will not be able to control it." Cheap at half o'clock."
