Chapter 390

PS: two more chapters.

"Smooth out?"

There are only Xiao Zhen and Xiao Ming in the main hall. Xiao Zhen's words make Xiao Ming frown.

"Yes, I will take the initiative to confess the Dutch to my father when my seventh brother comes to Chang'an this time. My father will be furious at that time. At that time, I hope my seventh brother can say something nice for me."

Xiao Ming can't help laughing when he hears the speech. "The third brother is the third brother. Before I get into trouble, the third brother will take the initiative to confess to his father. It seems that the third brother has guessed that I will shake this matter out in the court."

Speaking of this, Xiao Ming finally found out Xiao Zhen's purpose.

Since the Cao family moved some of their industries to Qingzhou, the king of Chu probably knew that the Cao family had told Xiao Ming about the Dutch, so he discussed the matter with Xiao Zhen.

At this time, Xiao Zhen also learned that someone was going to assassinate Xiao Ming, so he staged such a scene in front of the palace.

If Xiao Ming is dead, he naturally doesn't need to worry about anything. If Xiao Ming isn't dead, he can make a deal with him just to prevent him from suing him.

Otherwise, once Xiao Wenxuan learned about this, he would be very dissatisfied with the king of Chu, and even thought that the king of Chu wanted to rebel, and his throne was far away, even lost Xiao Wenxuan's favor.

Xiao Zhen said with a bitter smile, "isn't it? The Cao family visited seven younger brothers more than once and even supported them in the northern expedition. I don't believe that Cao Zhengyang didn't tell you about the Dutch. "

" it's not necessary for the Cao family to say that the king knows that my fleet has not only met the Dutch, but also the British. " Xiao Ming said lightly.

Xiao Zhen looks at Xiao Ming in surprise again. He can't see the details of Xiao Ming more and more clearly.

After a pause, Xiao Ming said, "let's talk about the clues you know. Then I will speak for you in front of my father. "

after getting Xiao Ming's promise, Xiao Zhen sighed," so far, it seems that only the East Palace has not been searched. "

" prince? " Xiao Ming's heart sank.

"I didn't say that. I only know that the prince has a hobby, which is to play in the East Palace pretending to be a barbarian. Therefore, he always likes to collect hybrids with barbarian blood." Xiao Zhen said with a light smile, "I just know this secret recently. "

after turning his eyes, Xiao Ming stands up. He can't get any clues from Xiao Zhen. Now he can only start from the east palace.

But the prince is the crown prince. This time Du Zhen didn't dare to search the east palace. After all, no one dared to go without Xiao Wenxuan's order.

"In that case, I will go to see my father and search the east palace." Xiao Ming said in a loud voice.

Xiao Zhen also stood up and said in a hurry, "I don't know about this. I hope my seventh brother doesn't mention me any more."

Xiao Ming nodded, ignored Xiao Zhen and left Xiao Zhen's palace.

Looking at the figure of Xiao Ming leaving, Xiao Zhen shows a sneer at the corner of his mouth. At this time, a person comes out from the corner, which is Li Zhong, the Minister of the Ministry of household affairs.

"Your Highness, it's a brilliant way to kill two birds with one stone." Li Zhong said with a smile.

"My uncle flatters me. It's just a trick. Now Xiao Ming is trusted by his father. If his father knows that the crown prince did it, he will be determined to abolish the crown prince, because it's hard to appease Xiao Ming if he doesn't abolish the crown prince."

Li Zhong said with a smile: "what's more wonderful is that Xiao Ming can use it for us to put the Dutch thing off."

Xiao Zhen began to laugh, but his face changed and he suddenly said, "but is this really what the Prince did? I always feel that it's not that easy. "

"It doesn't matter whether the Prince did it or not. As long as the assassin is found in the East Palace, the position of the prince will be lost." Li Zhong said.

Xiao Zhen nodded slowly.

Outside, Xiao Ming returns to the palace with his guards.

He doesn't believe all of Xiao Zhen's words, but he also believes that Xiao Zhen won't make fun of him about the Dutch. Now Xiao Zhen's words are the only clue.

In the palace, Xiao Ming goes straight to the imperial library, where he meets Du Zhen.

"Ming'er, the left and right military guards searched Chang'an City, but they didn't find any trace of the assassin." Xiao Wenxuan said to Xiao Ming with a headache.

Du Heng looked carefully at Xiao Ming and said cautiously, "Your Majesty, there is still one place that has not been searched."

"Where?" Xiao Wenxuan rubs his brows painfully. Because of the assassin, all his plans are disrupted.

"East palace." Du Heng said carefully.

Xiao Wenxuan suddenly opened his eyes. He stared at Du Zhen and then looked at Xiao Ming. For a long time, he said slowly, "I'll go to the east palace with you."

"Father and emperor, the prince is the future prince. I think it's a big deal. Let's forget about it. I believe the prince and brother won't do it."

Xiao Ming didn't expect that Du Heng would be the first to mention it. It's a saving thing for him to say.

But on the surface, he still has to refuse. After all, this matter is very sensitive. He doesn't want to be named as a prince."The prince is my son, and you are also my son. Since you believe that the prince is innocent, why don't you search? Let's go." Xiao Wenxuan stood up and took the lead to the east palace.

The East Palace and the Imperial Palace are adjacent palaces. Once promoted to the crown prince, the prince will move into the east palace.

Since then, the eastern palace has been equivalent to a small imperial court.

From the side hall of the palace, a group of people directly entered the east palace. When they learned that Xiao Wenxuan was coming, the prince immediately welcomed him out.

But when the prince saw Xiao Ming, he immediately changed his face.

The story of Xiao Ming's assassination has already spread to the East Palace, which makes him gloat. But now Xiao Wenxuan brings Du Heng and Xiao Ming to the East Palace, which means different.

"Search!"

Xiao Wenxuan looks cold, not to mention the assassination of Xiao Wenxuan, even the assassination of an ordinary Prince is enough to make him angry, which is a provocation to his imperial power.

Du Heng answered the voice, and searched the East Palace in the eyes of the prince.

"Father, this matter has nothing to do with my son's officials. Are you framing me, Xiao Ming?" The prince said angrily.

Without waiting for Xiao Ming to speak, Xiao Wenxuan said, "this is my idea. The whole Chang'an City has been searched. Why can't I search your East Palace?"

The prince opened his mouth in surprise, and a cold sweat gradually came out of his head. His eyes also went around with Du Juan.

Know son is not like father, the prince's strange is Xiao Wenxuan see in the eye, his heart suddenly cool half.

At the same time, the soldier who searched suddenly called out, "he's a half barbarian. Get him!"

With this sound, a sound of blade to blade attack came.

Xiao Wenxuan's face changed greatly. He kicked the prince to the ground and scolded: "bastard! I'm so disappointed that you really did it

The prince was at a loss. He said eagerly, "father, this is not what you think!"
