Chapter 277 Killing two birds with one stone

The second prince looked at Concubine Zhou's face and didn't have to wait for her answer. He knew the result in his heart...

"Mother? Or should I call your aunt more suitable?" The second prince laughed sarcastically.

"What are you talking about?" Concubine Zhou grabbed the handkerchief in her hand desperately, and squeezed it hard...

"Mother, I'm not talking nonsense!" The second prince shook his head and said, "Your Majesty has known it for a long time, but we haven't exposed it all the time. But we are too stupid. We actually thought we could hide the truth and try to be a great ruler." At this point, he suddenly shook his head, understanding in his heart why the prince was able to ascend to the position of the prince even though he was born in a humble state. He was not a noble man at all, he was just a pitiful person.

"What did he... say?" Concubine Zhou asked tremblingly. How did he know about such a big thing? Since he knew about it, why did he not say it? He never dealt with it and was always indulging the Zhou family?

"That Your Highness Huan asked me to come back honestly and be my second prince with my tail between them, haha..." When the second prince said this, he couldn't help laughing out loud, as if he was crazy.

"Yun'er, what are you doing?" Concubine Zhou was shocked and exclaimed, "Calm down."

"Calm down? Mother, aunt... how do you make me calm down? No matter how Your Majesty punishes me today, I won't care about the matter, I will endure it---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Concubine Zhou did not speak, but her face turned pale.

The second prince stared at her for a long time and finally said, "Why... why do you do this? Just to consolidate your status. What qualifications do you have to bring an irrelevant person in?"

After being shocked at first, Concubine Zhou was frightened. The hysterical questioning of the second prince opposite seemed to be with a sense of forcing people, and she became a little nervous again----

"What does it mean to be irrelevant? Why are you an irrelevant person? You are a member of the Zhou family. You have the responsibility to contribute to the future of the Zhou family..."

"Is it just to push the Zhou family to the future? Is it necessary to push the Zhou family on the whole family and cut off the road?" The second prince shouted loudly. "What do you think now... what should we do?"

What should they do? In this huge palace, there is still a lifetime to stay. Is it just living a half-imprisoned life, day by day...

Concubine Zhou didn't say anything. For a moment, she felt as if her heart was soaked in ice. Her whole body was cold and cold. What should I do?

Now this situation is good, so it's good. Not good. Your Majesty can kill them all at any time.

"Mother, go back to the palace. From now on, don't come to me..." the second prince said coldly.

Concubine Zhou was stunned. After a long time, she couldn't speak. She could only get up and leave. As soon as she walked out of the room, she heard a loud "bang" sound from inside, as if something had been smashed.

Yes. How can you live this life in the future? Why doesn’t Your Majesty kill them? Why did Your Majesty know it at the beginning but never say it?

If His Majesty had killed him early in the morning, why would he suffer such humiliation? From a prince to a prisoner who would be dragged to the execution ground at any time?

Although Shao Shuhuan asked him to go back and be a prince calmly, he knew in his heart that he could no longer have the original glory. He was not a prince or a nobleman.

The next morning, Shao Shuhuan got up early, changed his clothes, drank a few sips of ginseng tea, and after a while, he saw Emperor Zhou coming over in a neatly dressed manner.

"I've seen Your Majesty!" Shao Shuhuan said politely.

Emperor Zhou just smiled, rubbed his hands hard, and sighed, "The weather is really cold!" The little eunuch next to him was busy handing over a copper hand stove. Emperor Zhou took it and hugged it.

"Father, I have something to trouble you!" Shao Shuhuan said. He thought about it last night, and it would be better to ask Emperor Zhou to come forward for this matter.

"What's the matter?" Emperor Zhou asked in confusion, "Don't ask me questions early in the morning."

"It's not a problem!" Shao Shuhuan smiled, "Your Majesty issued an order to let Lord Shao move to Qingyao Villa."

"Why?" Emperor Zhou asked in confusion.

Shao Shuhuan waved his hand and ordered the little eunuchs around him to retreat. Emperor Zhou understood and frowned and said, "What has he done recently?"

"I did nothing, I just went to the East Palace with the Prince's Palace. He went to the Eastern Palace almost every night!" Shao Shuhuan took a deep breath, "I can't let him make any trouble. I'm busy cleaning up and dealing with it. It's best to be self-preventive and prevent him from contacting His Highness the Prince."

Emperor Zhou nodded and said, "This is easy to do, but even if you lock him in Qingyao Villa, he still has a way to contact the East Palace."

"I know!" Shao Shuhuan nodded. He couldn't go by himself, and he would order others to go to the ground. He could not guard against so many things, and he could only fundamentally solve the problem. However, it is really a big trouble for His Majesty to depose the crown prince openly.

Thinking of trouble, he couldn't help but think of the troublemaker Dugu Yunqing, the queen of Concubine Xian, and thought of giving her the blue box and the sword score. In addition, he didn't even give the mantras of Xuan Ji's Internal Classic, let alone anything else. Strangely, she didn't even read it, and left with the box.

Shao Shuhuan laughed when he thought of it. Are the Dugu family so confused? Or, the people in Xuanji Cave are all confused? After Gu Shaoshang got the thing, he hid it without looking at it. And Dugu Yunqing is the same now? Could it be that Xuanji Cave only recognizes boxes but not things?

I had known that I should have faked the box for her. But then I thought about it, even if the people in Xuanji Cave were a little confused, I wouldn't be so easy to fool. I waited for Dugu Yunqing to find that there was nothing she wanted in the box, and I was afraid it would be strange if I didn't come to him to fight hard.

"Shuhuan, what are you thinking?" Emperor Zhou asked when he saw him dazed and dazed.

"Oh...no...nothing!" Shao Shuhuan said hurriedly, "I just remembered Empress Xian."

"Let's go!" Emperor Zhou nodded, "I have ordered people to demolish the walls of Qingyao Villa and the Imperial Garden. In the future, it will be very convenient for you to enter and exit. However, are you really sure you want to let Qiezhi move to Qingyao Villa?"

Shao Shuhuan nodded affirmatively. He understood what Emperor Zhou meant and asked Shao She to move to Qingyao Villa. He watched him. However, his every move was probably not hidden from Shao She's eyes, so his effects were naturally mutual.

In the morning court, Shao Shuhuan's behind-the-scenes rule seemed to have become a habit, and naturally no one would impeach himself or herself for nothing.

The internal affairs of the Great Zhou Kingdom have always been very stable and smooth, and there is no major event. The biggest thing is that the north encounters heavy snowstorms and requests funding to provide disaster relief.

Emperor Zhou nodded on the spot and ordered the Ministry of Revenue to allocate funds for disaster relief. At the same time, he deliberately asked: "Zhou Aiqing, I remember that you said yesterday that the Chen family was an unjust case and wanted to collect evidence to ease the wrongdoing for the Chen family. Is there any clear evidence?"

When Zhou Yun heard this, although it was a cold weather, the sweat on his head was dripping. He immediately rushed forward and knelt down heavily with a thud, kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty is kind to you. I am talking nonsense yesterday. I deserve to die. Yesterday, I went to the Ministry of Justice to search the case file. Chen Tianwen colluded with Nan Xia and treasoned the country. The evidence is conclusive. I have no choice but to die. I also ask Your Majesty to forgive me for my ignorant offense yesterday!"

"So, isn't the Chen Tianwen case unjust?" Emperor Zhou snorted coldly and asked.

"Yes!" Zhou Yun said loudly, and kowtowed heavily.

When the court officials heard this, they were shocked. Zhou Yun said yesterday that he wanted to overturn the Chen family, so why did he change his words today? Moreover, he never mentioned the matter of the second prince. Early this morning, everyone was puzzled when they saw Zhou Yun's head bruised and the boss was confused. They inquired, and Zhou Yun explained that he had drunk too much yesterday and accidentally hit the corridor column.

However, those courtiers who are easy to fool? They all know that there is something in their hearts. Now that they see him saying this again, they are even more curious.

Bao Keshun secretly looked at Shao She, and saw that he was observing his nose and his heart. There was no surprise at all. It was obvious that such a result was as if he had expected. He suddenly remembered his words yesterday, and was even more shocked. What methods did he use to make Zhou Yun, who had always opposed the Shao family, stand on his side?

"This Ministry of Justice case is not director Zhou Aiqing. I will just do my duty well in the future!" Emperor Zhou said lightly.

"Yes, I obey the order!" Zhou Yun hurriedly kowtowed again, secretly looked up, glanced at Shao Shuhuan behind the curtains. He was indeed trustworthy, and His Majesty had no intention of pursuing it, and he was relieved for a while.

"Aiqing Shao!" Emperor Zhou suddenly shouted.

"I am here!" Shao She took two steps forward and bowed and said.

"I heard Shuhuan yesterday that Shao Aiqing was not very good. I don't know what the disease was? Is it important?" Emperor Zhou asked deliberately.

"Report to Your Majesty, you're old and you're not seriously injured!" Shao She bowed and said, "I thank Your Majesty for your concern."
