Chapter 717
Officials with good relationships with the eldest prince in Anyang City were arrested on various charges by the prince consort and General Li.
The entire Anyang City was in panic. The eldest prince, not far from Anyang City, also received the news. When he received the news, he rushed to Anyang City with great speed. It was originally ten days before he could reach Anyang City, but it was cut short by the eldest prince to eight days.
As soon as he returned to the eldest prince's mansion, the eldest prince immediately asked his confidant to report what happened in Anyang City recently.
The more I heard the eldest prince’s face became darker.
With a "bang", the eldest prince grabbed the teacup on the table and smashed it on the ground: "It's too much to deceive people, it's really too much to deceive people."
The prince consort and General Li have eliminated all his forces in Anyang City.
There are only the fifth prince and several other princes and princesses on his side in Anyang City, but whether these people have real power is to put it bluntly, it is a group of mobs and is of little use.
The more I thought about it, the more I became unwilling to accept it. I stood up and walked back and forth in the house and said, "Prepare the carriage immediately and I'm going to the Grand Princess' Mansion."
This matter cannot be ignored. His mother has been arrested and has shouldered all the blame. The important officials in the imperial city who have a relationship with him have not contacted him because they are afraid of being involved with each other.
If he ignores these officials in Anyang City, he will only make him alone and the road ahead will be even more difficult.
Mu Surong did not enter the house, but stood outside and listened, a refreshing smile flashed across her cold face.
The eldest prince hurriedly found the prince consort.
In the Grand Princess's Mansion, the prince consort was drinking tea leisurely, with no sadness or joy on his face, as if nothing had happened.
The eldest prince sat aside and looked at the prince consort with a dark face. After a while, he couldn't help but speak: "You really want to kill everyone? Don't worry about any love?"
The prince calmly put down the teacup, raised his head to look at the eldest prince, and asked blankly: "What kind of love?"
"You..." The eldest prince was silent and wanted to say something and finally swallowed it back.
He knew that the prince consort was holding a grudge and drugged the matter, and said in a muffled voice: "Ouyang Xiaxia has been dealt with, and even my family has been solved. Is the emperor's brother-in-law still not satisfied?"
The prince-consort smiled indifferently and said, "I detain those officials not because of the public revenge, so don't think I am so dirty. This is the decree of the father. We will strictly investigate the corrupt officials in Anyang City. Next, we will strictly investigate the corrupt officials across the country. Once it is found out, all of them will be detained and convicted depending on the severity of the circumstances. If the corruption and bribery are huge, the brain will definitely not be able to be protected. If the corruption and money is small, the light will be detained for a few months, and the worst will be exiled."
He likes to see the eldest prince's panicked appearance very much.
I also like to see the eldest prince who wants to bite him to death but dare not take action.
How desperate and sad he and Nangong Yutong were in the years without children, especially Nangong Yutong had a period of time crying all day long, and he didn't know how distressed he felt.
First, the Virtue poisoned the poison, then Ouyang Xiaxia poisoned the poison. What did the family regard the couple as?
How could such a big hatred be forgotten easily?
The eldest prince gritted his teeth and said angrily: "Don't think I don't know you are taking personal revenge."
The prince consort mocked, "I have to thank you for giving me this opportunity to avenge my private revenge! The upper beam is not straight, the lower beam is crooked, your people are the same as you, they are greedy and greedy for money. After a little check, they will find out the dirty things they did. Do you think I should be grateful for your good intentions?"
The eldest prince was so angry that he grabbed the cup and wanted to smash it on the ground. The prince consort sneered: "This teacup is your prince's favorite."
The eldest prince finally didn't dare to smash the teacup, he really didn't dare.
The prince-consort continued: "The hatred between us has long been unresolved. I will take revenge on the harm you mother and son have imposed on me and Yu Tong one by one. Don't worry, I will not let you go of your incompetent sons. From now on, you will be blessed."
He has never been a kind person. He will remember those who are good to him, but he is not good to him...
He is a man who will revenge his grudges.
The eldest prince's face looked very ugly, because he was too angry and his lips were trembling. After a while, he said, "It's great! I remember what I said today, just pray that there is no handle to fall into my hands."
He knew that even if he said soft words, he couldn't change anything, and he didn't want to be humble.
The prince consort was very calm: "You can take revenge anyway. By the way, there is another thing that needs to be reminded that the spy sent by the eldest prince of Li State has been caught, and even the spy sent by Chen Yuan and the spy sent were also caught. The charge of colluding with the enemy is quite a big deal. If I were you, I should consider how to place innocent people."
He deliberately reminded the eldest prince that there is a saying that people will reveal more flaws only when they are panic.
As long as the eldest prince is more panicked, the eldest prince will reveal more flaws, and he can also seize these flaws to deal with the eldest prince.
Shortly after the eldest prince left, the mother Surong left the eldest prince's mansion alone.
He entered a shop vigilantly, then changed his clothes and left the back door of the shop.
The Eighth Prince's Mansion.
When Lin Yuzhu heard the maid say that an old friend was looking for her, but she was still a woman, she asked someone to bring her into the mansion in confusion.
When Mu Surong walked into the house, Lin Yuzhu was a little surprised: "Why are you here?"
She had heard Nangong Yunqi say before that her mother Surong went to the city outside the imperial city with the eldest prince.
Isn’t it time for Mu Surong to wait for two days before she comes back?
Mother Surong took off the hat of her cloak, looked up at Lin Yuzhu and begged: "Please help me."
The only person she could think of helping her in Anyang City was Lin Yuzhu.
That's why she secretly came out to find Lin Yuzhu while the eldest prince left, because she knew that it would be too late if she didn't come to find Lin Yuzhu again.
Lin Yuzhu signaled Mother Surong to sit down.
Then he said: "What happened?"
Mother Surong glanced at the maid in the room. Lin Yuzhu waved her hand and the maids left one after another.
When there were only two of them left in the house, Mother Surong slowly said: "I have evidence of the eldest prince colluding with the spy of Li Guo."
"What!" Lin Yuzhu stood up in surprise, realized that she was too excited and sat down, worriedly saying, "How did you get these evidences of guilt? Do you know that it is dangerous for you to do this?"
Mu Surong felt warm in her heart, and she felt that Lin Yuzhu was caring for her.
Two letters were taken out of the cuff and handed them to Lin Yuzhu, and said seriously: "These two letters are evidence of the collusion between the eldest prince and the eldest prince of Li Kingdom. I secretly came out. I asked my father to resign from his post three days ago. The eldest prince has not received any news yet. I plan to follow my father to hide for a while and wait until the matter is settled before coming to you."
Lin Yuzhu looked at Mu Surong in surprise and said, "You are too risky to do this."
Isn't it a risk?
The mother Surong and the eldest prince were granted marriage by the emperor. They could not divorce or be abandoned by the eldest prince without the emperor's permission.
Mu Surong actually dared to hide with her family. I have to say that Mu Surong's courage is even greater than she imagined.
Mother Surong sighed, and she naturally knew that it was too risky to do so, but if she didn't do so, she would only die if she stayed by the eldest prince.
She used to have a desire to die, but now she doesn't want to die, she wants to live well.
Lin Yuzhu frowned and said, "The eldest prince has many minions, and it is not safe for you and your family to hide. The most dangerous place is the safest place. It is better to stay in Anyang City for the time being, even if you stay in the Eighth Prince's Mansion. Let your father and family leave and hide. The eldest prince's goal is you."
Mother Surong thought about it carefully and felt that Lin Yuzhu was right and said, "But I will cause you trouble when I stayed in the Eighth Prince's Mansion!"
To be honest, Lin Yuzhu is really kind to her in the huge Anyang City. Even though the two had misunderstandings and conflicts before, Lin Yuzhu could help her without grudges, which made her cherish it in addition to being grateful.
She cherishes the friendship with Lin Yuzhu very much.
Lin Yuzhu smiled and said, "Don't worry about trouble. The Eighth Prince's Mansion and the eldest prince are mortal enemies, and no one knows the friendship between you and me. Even if the eldest prince doubts, he will not doubt me. Don't forget that everyone outside knows that we have a bad relationship."
This is the truth. The only people she and her mother Surong know about are Li Yuanjing and Nangong Yutong.
Mu Surong is very grateful to Lin Yuzhu: "If I need to testify, I am willing to stand up."
She hated the eldest prince and wished that the eldest prince would go to the eighteen levels of hell.
I wish the eldest prince would be cut into pieces.
Lin Yuzhu continued to ask, "Did you see you when you came to the palace?"
Mother Surong shook her head and said, "I'm very careful. I left the mansion through the back door, and then went to the shop I secretly bought and changed my clothes. I disguised myself and came to the Eighth Prince's Mansion. No one can recognize me."
Lin Yuzhu felt at ease: "You should live in the mansion for the time being. If you have any needs, tell me. I hope you don't come out and stay in the yard for a while. This is for your safety."
She was afraid that the Eighth Prince's Mansion would be mixed and it would be bad if the people with intentions saw it.
Mu Surong has no reason to refuse.
Lin Yuzhu suddenly remembered the maid who had delivered a letter on behalf of her mother Surong: "Where is your personal maid?"
Mother Surong smiled faintly and said, "I prepared in advance and asked her to leave Anyang City with Xiaoruan, so that she could fly away and live in seclusion."
She was not sure whether she could survive, nor did she want to implicate the maid who had been with her for many years, so she made more arrangements.
Lin Yuzhu asked someone to take her mother Surong to the backyard and arranged someone to serve her mother Surong in person.
Of course, doing this is also a precaution, and I am worried about what Mu Surong will do.
She was worried that she would be suspected of being exposed, so she arranged for a maid in the mansion who looked very similar to her height to her mother Surong, and put on her mother Surong's clothes and left the main entrance.
The eldest prince left in a furious manner, but the prince consort arranged for someone to follow the eldest prince after the eldest prince left.
The eldest prince, who was upset, did not return to the carriage, but asked someone to take him to a restaurant.
