Chapter 373
Fu Chunsheng was so frightened by the emperor's sudden roar that he trembled. He could still kneel on the ground upright, but his knees suddenly shook and he slumped there, looking up at the emperor with his big, hollow mouth.

Xiao Yi beside him immediately kicked him from behind.

"Father, I'm asking you a question!" Xiao Yi's voice was as cold as frost, with a chilling momentum.

Fu Chunsheng finally breathed a sigh of relief and said tremblingly: "I sent my subordinates to clean up the mess in the courtyard. I went into the house to see if there were any other discoveries to solve the case. In the inner room where Miss Gu stayed, I found I found a medicine box with the lid opened. The medicine bottles in the box were neatly arranged, but I scanned five bottles alone. There was powder scattered from the edge of the box. The smell of the medicine powder was overbearing and very offensive."

"Tell me the important point!" Xiao Yi glanced at the emperor's gloomy expression and said coldly.

Fu Chunsheng's neck immediately trembled, and he shook his eyelids and said: "I followed the smell of medicine and searched all the way in the house. After a while, I found a back door in the main room. The back door was wide open, and the smell of medicine was particularly strong at the door. .”

"Following the smell of the medicine, I continued to chase forward for a while. Because Lord Gu did not order me to participate in this matter before leaving, and I was thinking about returning to Beijing to report, I only followed a short distance and then turned back. In that direction , but it points directly to Cuiping Mountain."

Do you think it’s dark and windy at night, so you’re afraid of danger?
The emperor snorted in his heart, but did not expose him. After all... there was no point in exposing him.

Lu Jiuzheng was so bold that he kidnapped Gu Yuqing. Gu Yuqing was alert and used medicinal powder to leave clues along the way. Xiao Yu and Gu Zhen followed the clues and caught up with Cuiping Mountain, but a flash flood was erupting in Cuiping Mountain at this moment...

One is his favorite son, and the other is a courtier whom he regards as a brother, and this courtier will set off to fight tomorrow.

The emperor's heart was filled with anger, and the blood all over his body seemed to be on fire, burning his internal organs, and the muscles under his eyes could not help but tremble.

The moment Fu Chunsheng finished speaking, the emperor slapped the table and said, "Bring Lu Jiuzheng to me with the Imperial Guard. In addition, seize Lu Jiuzheng's mansion for me."

After receiving the order, the chamberlain immediately turned around and went out to deliver the message. When he came back, Xiao Yi was reminding the emperor, "Father, Lord Gu has ordered Gundam to surround Lu Jiuzheng's house. Isn't it a bit..." to let the imperial army intervene at this moment?

Since the fall of King Duan, the emperor handed over the Jingwei Camp to Xiao Yu.

As the commander of the Jingwei battalion, Gao Da was appointed by Gu Zhen to surround Lu Jiuzheng's house. Is there any special meaning in this? The so-called calculated calculations were intentional and unintentional, and the emperor was always suspicious. Xiao Yi only needed to throw out the introduction, and the rest There was no need for him to do anything more.

However, this time his plan failed.

When the emperor heard this, he didn't even frown, "Gu Zhen ordered the Gundam to surround Lu Jiuzheng's house. That was because there was no one available except the Gundam at that time! Now that I know it, this matter will naturally be done by the Forbidden Army and the Jingwei Battalion will be responsible. Kyoto is safe, how can we move them to do this?"

Xiao Yi was speechless after the emperor's words, so he had to shut up, but he still felt unwilling to do so.

After all, he underestimated Gu Zhen's position in his father's heart.

The father was suspicious of the queen, suspicious of King Duan, and even suspicious of his son, but he only had deep trust in Gu Zhen...

This made Xiao Yi understand more and more the importance of marrying Gu Yuqing back to the mansion.

This advantage must not fall on Xiao Yu.

Gu Yuqing...he is bound to win.

Thinking of how to get rid of Prince Duan last time, didn't Gu Yuqing single out him among the princes and hand over the files related to Prince Duan to him, asking him to seek justice for her?
It can be seen that in Gu Yuqing's heart, he should be better than Xiao Yu and Xiao Duo.

Thinking about this, Xiao Yi felt more and more that he was very sure about Gu Yuqing.

Seeing that this matter was clearly explained, the chamberlain bent down and whispered in the emperor's ear, "Your Majesty, Mr. Zhang, who just reported the mountain flood, is still waiting at the door!"

His son and ministers were all trapped by the flash flood. The emperor was so anxious that he was dizzy and said, "He's waiting for his life, let him in quickly!" Hearing this, he cursed.

The chamberlain trembled and trotted outside on his little feet to deliver the message.

The so-called Lord Zhang is just the stationmaster at the foot of Cuiping Mountain. He has never been to the palace or seen the emperor in his life. At this moment, he was led by the chamberlain and walked into the imperial study room anxiously. He walked to Xiao Duo's side and plopped down. Kneel down.

Before he could dare to say hello, the emperor asked: "What's going on with the flash flood?"

Mr. Zhang said: "Cuiping Mountain and Longyang Mountain are in the same line. There is a river halfway up the two mountains. Over the years, there has never been such a heavy rain in Kyoto. This river is used by the villagers at the foot of the mountain to irrigate their lives. The source of water, but a heavy rain today caused the river to overflow, causing floods."

Although I was so frightened that I didn't dare to look at the emperor from the beginning to the end of my speech and kept my forehead on the ground, my voice was clear.

When the emperor heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Fu Chunsheng.

The station master of a small post station is better than him.

"Due to the heavy rainstorm, I was worried that there would be floods or landslides, so I moved the people in the surrounding area in advance. Therefore, the losses were not heavy. However, this flash flood was too powerful and affected a wide area. Those in far away places "Those who are beyond the reach of villains and cannot take care of them will suffer disaster."

"Fortunately, last spring, His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince dug a river channel tens of meters deep at the foot of the mountain, which played a role in blocking and diverting the flood and alleviated it a lot."

When he mentioned this matter, the emperor couldn't help but his eyelids jumped.

Xiao Yu was building a river channel at that time, and the reason he told him was that he wanted to raise koi carp around the mountains there, and it was fun...

Fortunately, he was making trouble day and night, and I thought he was noisy, so I nodded in agreement.

After the river around the mountain was built, he paid a private visit to see it. The river was wide and deep, and raising fish would naturally be a waste of resources. But now it is best used to divert floods.

this stinky boy...

Just the thought of this brat still living and breathing on Cuiping Mountain made the emperor feel as if needles pricking his heart.

"Before entering the palace, I went to Jingzhao Yin's mansion and the Ministry of Industry's mansion first, but..." However, he did not continue, but took a breath and said, "Now because of the river, no longer In addition, the rain has slowed down, and by the time the villain comes, the floods have basically been under control.”

There was only so much he could say, and the rest was beyond him.

How could the emperor not know the meaning of the unfinished sentence?

There was no one in Jing Zhaoyin's mansion to meet him. Let's assume that Fu Chunsheng was not there, but what about Dou Hengshu from the Ministry of Industry?

Without the emperor's instructions, with just a look, the chamberlain's father-in-law understood what he was doing. He immediately walked out and walked to the door. He ordered in a high-pitched voice: "Quickly go and call Mr. Dou, the Minister of the Ministry of Industry."
