Happy Little Scholar

Changde's voice was as erratic as a ghost, making the atmosphere in the hall quite eerie and terrifying.

Emperor Jing clenched a memorial in his hand and said, "So, they really did that thing?"

"That's probably the case." Changde said, "But it's not just that. Following that clue, I'm afraid we can lead more people."

"Then keep digging for me!" Emperor Jing's voice gradually became colder, "I will not let anyone who participated in the incident back then go!"

After his voice fell, the hall began to be silent.

Until a "creaking" sound came, the door of the hall was pushed open a little, and the sunlight outside shone in.

A head poked in from outside, and the arrogant loli said with some doubts: "Why don't you open the door in broad daylight?"

Her body flashed and appeared in the hall, smiling and trotting over, saying: "Father, I'll give you a good thing..."

"What good things did you steal from the catering bureau again?" A smile appeared on Emperor Jing's face, and he hugged her in his arms.

"Father, please try it first!"

The arrogant little girl took out a handkerchief from her bosom, opened it carefully, took out a small milky white thing similar to pastry, and put it into Emperor Jing's mouth.

"It tastes good. Is it a new pastry made by the catering bureau?" Emperor Jing asked with a bigger smile on his face.

The arrogant little girl curled her lips and said, "Those stupid imperial chefs can't make such delicious food. This is made by the master. Here, give Father two more pieces. I'll go find my mother. She hasn't tasted it yet..."

Watching her jump out, the smile on Emperor Jing's face lasted for a long time. Chang De picked up the scattered memorials on the ground and sorted them out, saying, "Your Majesty, do you want the Secret Service to check carefully about His Royal Highness the King of Shu?"

"No need." Emperor Jing waved his hand and said, "Li Xian can't do such a thing, but some people can't wait."

Feeling the chill in his words, Chang De knew that some people in the court tomorrow might have a hard time.

……

……

"Prime Minister Qin, now that things have come to this, what should we do?" In the Qin Mansion, many people stared at Prime Minister Qin.

"Blessings and disasters, disasters and blessings..." Prime Minister Qin sighed and said, "Nothing needs to be done, nothing can be done."

He shook his head, and when he walked out with his hands behind his back, his body was more hunched than before.

At this moment, even he himself had deep doubts about whether the decision made more than ten years ago was right or wrong.

He walked out of the door, waved to a person standing in the corridor, and said, "Tell Concubine Cui that this old man can't do anything about this matter."

……

"Have you found it?"

In the Shu Palace, more than a dozen officials were waiting anxiously. When they saw a servant coming in from outside, someone immediately asked.

"It hasn't been found yet." The servant shook his head and said helplessly.

Everyone's face was full of panic. Time was running out. Every quarter of an hour wasted could lead to more serious consequences.

The King of Shu could not be found, and someone had already gone to the palace to report to Concubine Cui. The result was still unknown. If His Highness did not come back, it would be too late when the palace gates were closed today.

Even they were a little scared when they thought of what would happen in the morning court tomorrow.

At this moment, a maid ran in hurriedly and said, "His Highness is back!"

Upon hearing this, everyone got up and walked quickly out of the hall.

The King of Shu was supported by two servants. He was sleepy and swaying. When he saw everyone coming out, he was stunned for a moment, and then asked in confusion, "Why are you all here?"

Then, as if he had thought of something, a smile appeared on his face, and he said, "I know, you are also here to congratulate me, okay, okay, give the order to hold a banquet in the palace tonight..."

"Your Highness!"

Everyone was already very anxious. In this crisis, they were anxious in the palace, while the King of Shu was happy and carefree outside. Finally, someone couldn't help but said something in anger.

"Ah?" The King of Shu raised his head in confusion, not knowing why the other party was angry.

The official's face was full of disappointment, and he said: "If your highness continues like this, the position of the East Palace will be in danger..."

"What?"

The King of Shu was still very sensitive to these two words, and he sobered up in an instant, and asked anxiously: "What happened, why is it like this?"

He thought he was within reach of that position, but now someone told him that he might not be able to be the emperor, how could he not be anxious?

Seeing that until now, the King of Shu did not realize where the crisis was this time, the hearts of the people in the field were half cold on the spot.

The King of Shu was very lucky.

Because the queen had no legitimate son and could no longer give birth, he, who was born by Concubine Cui, had the same status as the eldest son, and was the first heir to the next emperor at birth.

His mother was Concubine Cui, and he had the support of the powerful Cui family and many other wealthy families who shared the same glory and disgrace with the Cui family. Because of these factors, many officials in the court had established good relations with him early on, and even the prime minister of the time supported him without hesitation.

He could even stay in Kyoto without going to his fiefdom, and all these things were not available to other princes combined.

However, he was also unfortunate.

From the time he knew what an emperor was, he knew he would be an emperor in the future, and he could be an emperor without doing anything, so he never thought about making progress and was content with pleasure. As long as he was a royal dandy, people would build momentum for him. His Royal Highness the King of Shu was broad-minded, recruited talents, and was proficient in everything. He was the best choice to be the prince------so there was today's straw bag.

Blessings and disasters, at this moment, everyone understood the meaning of Qin Xiang's words.

The official whispered: "Let's talk about this on the way. Now, you should go to the palace immediately to apologize to His Majesty. There may be a little room for redemption. Otherwise, it will be a big deal!"

Even though there are still many things that he can't figure out, there is one thing that he knows better than anyone else.

If he doesn't do what the other party says, his throne may really run away.

At this point, the wine he drank at night was completely sober, and the pride of the day was swept away. He hurriedly said: "Prepare the horses, quickly, prepare the horses quickly, the king wants to enter the palace!"

A moment later, a burst of angry voices came from outside the palace gate.

"Why, why don't you let me in!"

The leader of the guards in charge of guarding the palace gate looked at the King of Shu and said: "Your Highness, the palace gate is closed at this time. If you want to enter or exit, you must have your Majesty's token. If you don't have it, please wait for a moment, we will send someone to pass it on immediately."

The King of Shu was furious, his eyes were full of bloodshot: "Open your dog eyes and see clearly, I am the King of Shu, how dare you stop me?"

"Sorry, it's my duty!"

The leader took a step back, and the guards beside him had already gathered around in a certain formation. They would not be polite to anyone who broke into the palace gate without permission, no matter who the other party was.

"Send someone to tell him immediately that I have something important to see my father about!"

The King of Shu walked to the side of the palace gate, looked at the night sky, his face was extremely ferocious, gritted his teeth, and spoke word by word.

"Who is hurting me!"

...

...

"Of course it's me."

Li Yi looked at Miss Liu Er and said firmly: "Who else can come up with such a high-end and elegant name? Just call it Big White Rabbit. Forget Ruyi Sugar and Xiaohuan Sugar."
