Everything starts from Menghualu

Chapter 263 Sun Zhuo was caught conspiring with his brother

"Master Lou, I wonder what you are doing here this time?" Sun Zhuo asked.

"Master Sun, I'm really sorry. I'm afraid you have to go back to Tingwei's Mansion with me." After hearing this, Lou Ben was not polite at all and directly stated the purpose of his visit.

"What? Lou Ben, did I hear you correctly? You want to arrest me? Do you know what the consequences will be if you arrest me? Do you think Ling Buhuo can protect you?"

As soon as he heard that they were here to arrest him, Sun Zhuo stopped being polite and began to threaten him.

"Master Sun, of course I know your identity, but you know what you did. Even if you don't know, your clan brothers remember it clearly."

"You'd better stop saying these useless words. Even if you move out of the Crown Prince today, I have to take you back. As for the rest, that will be a matter for the future." Lou Ben said

After hearing this, Sun Zhuo's expression suddenly changed, because he knew in his heart that the people who were captured before knew certain things about him, but he did not dare to say these things to his sister before.

"Haha, it seems that you have remembered, Mr. Sun? In that case, don't make it difficult for me. You should know very well that there is a fight here and no one can escape." Lou Ben said

"Okay, Lou Ben, I'll go with you, but please remember this. This matter is not over yet. After this time, we can take our time to figure it out!" Sun Zhuo said in a deep voice.

"Haha, okay, then I'll wait and see what Mr. Sun's clever move is? Please," Lou Ben said

After Sun Zhuo heard this, he immediately followed him and left. As soon as he left, the rest of the Sun family were completely panicked. Fortunately, some of them were still conscious and hurriedly sent people to the East Palace to report the news.

Not long after, the news that Lou Ben and his men had captured Sun Zhuo spread throughout the capital. Everyone knew that this was the beginning of a contest, and among them, Emperor Wen was naturally included.

"You mean, Sun Zhuo was taken from the mansion to Tingwei's mansion? Have you found out the specific reason? I remember, didn't he arrest a few people before? Why today?" Emperor Wen frowned and asked

"Back to Your Majesty, Sun Zhuo is usually a bit domineering. Those people who were taken away before must know something. That's why what happened to Sun Zhuo today happened." Jiang Chong said

"In other words, the evidence should be conclusive? In that case, then go down and let your people keep an eye on it. Tell me when you have the result." Emperor Wen said.

After hearing this, Jiang Chong was a little shocked, but he remained calm on his face, bowed and exited the imperial study.

When he came out of the Imperial Study Room, he felt a turmoil in his heart. Could it be that His Majesty really planned to change the crown prince? Otherwise, why would Your Majesty not care about this matter?

You know, no one has investigated the Sun family before? But the result is nothing, why? Of course it's because of His Majesty.

Before coming this time, he had actually been prepared in his heart. He thought he would do the same thing as before. But he didn't expect that His Majesty would choose to stay out of it this time?

This is not a good sign. It means that His Majesty's dissatisfaction with the Crown Prince has reached a certain level, and it seems that he has to leave a way out for himself in advance.

At the same time, in the East Palace, a fierce quarrel broke out between the prince and the princess.

"What did you tell me the day before yesterday? Have you forgotten it? What happened today? Didn't you tell me before that your brother would not be involved?"

"What happened today? Why was he captured by Ling Zichen? Tell me why? Why did Ling Zichen capture him?" the prince asked

"Your Highness, I don't know. My brother really told me that he has nothing to do with those people. That's why I just arrested people randomly and wanted to frame them." The Crown Princess said.

"You haven't told the truth even now, what do you think the East Palace is? If Ling Zichen had some courage, he wouldn't dare to act like this!" the prince said

"Your Highness, my brother, he did say that to me, I..." the Crown Princess said

"Hmph, you still can't understand? Your brother lied to you, he lied to you!" the prince said

"No, no, my brother won't lie to me? How could he lie to me?" the princess said.

"You, you are simply hopeless! Get out, get out!" the prince shouted loudly

After hearing this, the Crown Princess wanted to make a few excuses, but in the end she didn't say anything and could only leave the room silently, leaving the Crown Prince alone to lose her temper.

As for the Crown Princess, after leaving the room, a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes, and then disappeared. After so many years of getting along, she knew the weaknesses of her Highness very well.

In fact, when she first learned the news, she guessed that her brother had deceived her again, so she came up with this method to temporarily stay out of it.

But she knew that this was of no use, because she could only hide it from the prince, but not from her own family, so she still had to find a way.

At this time, the prince had recovered and was discussing this troublesome matter with the uninvited Taifu Lou in the study.

"Your Highness, something is not good this time. It seems that Ling Buhuo must have found out something, so he dared to go to the Sun family to arrest Sun Zhuo in a big way." Taifu Lou said

"To be honest, Master, I actually think so too. The key now is that I don't know how much trouble my careless uncle has caused this time."

"If it's normal, that's fine, but what if? That's not good." The prince said with a serious face.

"What His Highness said is absolutely true, so the key now is to find someone to find out the news, so that we can make the right response." Taifu Lou said

"This is a good idea, but who should I let go?" the prince asked.

"Your Highness, that Ling Zichen is so sinister and cunning that only one person can control him." Taifu Lou said

"Huh? Taifu, are you talking about Zi Sheng? But, didn't they already fall out before? If I remember correctly, it seems that I am still in Taifu's house?" The prince said

"Yes, Your Highness, you remember correctly. It is indeed in the minister's residence. However, Your Highness, only General Ling is the only one who can find out the news in Tingwei's residence." Taifu Lou bowed and said

"Well, just let me think about it, let me think about it, that's all, then I'll find Zi Sheng." The prince thought for a while and then said helplessly.

When Ling Buyi learned that the prince wanted to see him, he roughly knew what was going on, so he didn't delay and followed the visitor directly into the East Palace.

"Zisheng, you're here. You must have heard everything, right? The prince and I have been thinking about it for a long time, but we haven't come up with a good solution. Do you have any ideas?" the prince asked.

After hearing this, Ling Buyi didn't know what the prince meant? At this time, he felt very disdainful. After all, he had already mentioned the Sun family's problem.

But the prince never paid attention to it. Every time the Sun family caused trouble, the prince would come forward to protect him, and in the end the matter was settled.

It can be said that if it weren't for the Sun family, he might not have been disappointed in the prince so quickly.

"Your Highness, you want me to go to Tingwei's Mansion, right? I don't know what you want me to do? Do you want to find out information, or do you want him to let me go directly?" Ling Buyi said directly.

"Zisheng, you are really smart. I have really embarrassed you this time. Just go and get some information this time. As for saving people, I don't need to trouble you." The prince was a little embarrassed after hearing this. He nodded and said, "Okay, then leave this matter to me, but Your Highness, I can help the Sun family once, but I can't help him a second time."

"Then Ling Zichen is a white-eyed wolf. I can suppress him this time, but there will be no next time. Your Highness, you really can't tolerate him like this anymore."

The prince looked embarrassed after hearing this, but he quickly said, "Yes, Zi Sheng, don't worry, after this time, I will never give the Sun family another chance."

Ling Busu nodded after hearing this, then bowed, and then left the study directly.

After Ling Buyi left, Grand Tutor Lou said, "Your Highness, what General Ling said is quite reasonable. If the Sun family continues to be so unwilling to restrain itself, what will happen in the future...?"

"Well, what the Master said is that I will go and make it clear to the Crown Princess." The Crown Prince said solemnly.

After hearing this, Mr. Lou didn't say anything else. He didn't believe a word of what the prince just said. After all, he knew the prince too well, and the prince couldn't be cruel at all.

But there were some things that he still had to say even though he didn't know them. After all, Ling Lingbuyi had already said it, so how could he not say it? Doesn't that make him inferior to Ling Buyi?

At this time, Ling Buyi didn't know these trivial matters in the East Palace. At this time, he had arrived at Tingwei's Mansion. No one dared to stop him, and he went straight to Ling Buhuo's public house.

Ling Buyi stopped when he reached the door, and then said, "I'm here. Do you want me to come in and have a chat?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open, and Ling Buhuo walked out with a smile on his face, and then said, "Brother is here, why don't I have time? Please come in."

After hearing this, Ling Busu didn't say anything, but walked inside. Soon the door of the room was closed, and only the two brothers were left in the room.

"How's it going, brother? Are you satisfied with my recent performance?" Ling Buhuo asked.

"Haha, don't ask me about this. Are you satisfied or not? Don't think I can't tell. Is your little idea moving again?" Ling Busuo asked.

"Haha, if you don't say brother, you are brother. Yes, I do have some other ideas, but our purpose is the same, isn't it?" Ling Buhuo said

"Hmph, let's get down to business. What are you going to do this time? You made the matter so big, and now the city is full of troubles, making His Highness the center of attention instantly." Ling Bu doubted.

"Brother, some things cannot be disguised too well. If you don't show your intention at all, how can His Majesty consider it?"

"The Third Prince has done very well over the years, but one thing is that he is too self-righteous. He thought he could hide it, but little did he know that it was impossible to escape His Majesty's eyes."

"Brother, Your Majesty values ​​you, so he won't check you very much, but his son, do you think he won't check you either? As long as he has done it, how can it not be found out?" Ling Buhuo said.

"But you did this without telling the Third Prince, right? Aren't you afraid that he will cause trouble for you? Then won't everything you do be in vain?" Ling Busuo asked.

"Yes, but brother, who am I? I am a person with a good reputation. With my reputation, no one will be surprised by anything I do."

"Am I already crazy now? Even you and my brothers can turn against each other. What else can't I do?" Ling Buhuo said with a smile.

"Haha, aren't you worried that you will play to death that day? Forget it, let's not talk about these useless things. Let's talk about other things. What are your plans this time?" Ling Bu asked.

"Brother, what I want to do this time is actually very simple, that is to force the prince or princess to continue to come forward and fish out the Sun family." Ling Buhuo said

"Huh? Did I hear you right? It doesn't seem to be of any benefit to you. Wait, do you want to boil the frog in warm water?" Ling Buyu said.

"Haha, the eldest brother is the eldest brother. Yes, I just plan to boil the frog in warm water. The prince has been disappointing His Majesty over the years, and if this disappointment accumulates too much, something big will happen."

"For example, this time, brother, do you think His Majesty will take action this time? Why not? It's not because His Majesty is disappointed with the Crown Prince."

"What I want to do is never to destroy the Sun family in one go, but to slowly and step by step drag the prince into the deep pit of the Sun family, leaving him unable to recover." Ling Buhuo said

Ling Busu was shocked after hearing this, and then smiled and said, "It has to be you after all. You are really good at these underhanded ideas."

"But this won't work. You have to think of a new one. After all, I came with a mission this time. I have to bring back a few words and tell them."

"Isn't this simple? Isn't it just casual? Brother, let me tell you straight today. If someone else comes today, I may give you face, but you, you don't have it with me."

"Go back and tell His Highness the Crown Prince that my request is actually very simple. As long as he abdicates the throne and makes way for others, nothing will happen." Ling Buhuo said coldly.

Ling Busuo was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then he immediately reacted and said, "Ling Zichen, originally I spared you for your unreasonable behavior last time for the sake of my family."

"But I didn't expect that this would make you even worse. If that's the case, then you can do it yourself!" After Ling Busuo heard this, he turned around and pushed out the door.

"Brother, don't forget to tell him when you get back that he should abdicate as soon as possible!" Ling Buhuo shouted loudly.

Ling Busu didn't pause after hearing this, but continued to walk forward. He quickly left Tingwei's Mansion and appeared in the East Palace not long after.

"Your Highness, I disappoint you. I didn't expect him to be so stubborn. My going this time seems to have had the opposite effect. He won't let anyone go even more now," Ling Buyi said.

"Hey, Zisheng, you don't need to blame yourself. There's nothing you can do about it. Who makes the Sun family so unhappy? Okay, Zisheng, you've been tired for the whole day. Go back and rest." The prince said

Ling Busu opened his mouth after hearing this, but in the end he didn't say anything. He cupped his fists and bowed before leaving the East Palace.
