I Persuade People With Reason

The banquet in the front yard had not yet dissipated. When His Royal Highness, who had disappeared for a period of time, led a chubby boy back, everyone was surprised to find that compared with the previous one, His Highness's attitude seemed to have changed significantly.

Before that, he had always looked indifferent, as if he was sitting on the cloud, and his whole body exuded an aura of alienation that people did not dare to approach easily;

But it only took a moment, and it was clearly still the same cold face, but the curvature of the corners of the lips softened a little, which made people involuntarily get close to him from the depths of their hearts.

This wonderful feeling almost made them think it was an illusion.

However, it turned out that this was not an illusion.

—His Royal Highness’s attitude was not only really kind, but he also deliberately brought out the Sixth Prince’s Highness who had been with him all the time and introduced it to everyone.

This was the first time that His Royal Highness, the sixth prince, who lived in the deep palace, appeared in front of everyone.

The crowd suddenly stunned.

It turned out that the reason why His Royal Highness changed his indifferent attitude and took the initiative to speak was to introduce the sixth prince. It's really a brother and a brother, a deep brotherhood, a brother dead brother...cough, something strange got in.

After understanding the meaning of the prince, everyone in the audience was naturally very supportive, and used his skillful rainbow fart skills to blow this little fat girl into a cute little one that is unique in the sky and the only one in the world. Even his fleshy double chin reveals the extraordinaryness of the heavenly family, and his round eyes reveal wisdom.

Qi Yu raised his head high and nodded his head very usefully. The double crit he suffered from Su Xuer and his royal brother just now healed quickly, and he was active in the crowd. The smile on his face became more and more energetic.

Yuan Buwei just sat aside, didn't speak, just drank the wine in the glass with a light expression, and looked at Qi Yu's direction from time to time.

In the eyes of many people, he is a good brother who is cold-hearted and caring about his younger brother.

Of course Qi Yu also noticed his gaze, and couldn't help but smile brightly at the imperial brother, revealing his snow-white teeth. Even the previous grievances and depression were all forgotten.

...The emperor's mouth is ruthless, fierce and cold, but he still values ​​his younger brother very much in his heart :). Really want to pull that wild girl over to take a look, and also want to rob the emperor with him? Huh, overthinking it!

Carrying the pride of the winner, Qi Yushang's face with baby fat bulged with laughter.

Facing such a (stupid) real (stupid) protagonist, System 999 couldn't bear it anymore:

【Host, are you really okay with this? See how the protagonist relies on you, trusts you, likes you, how dare you use him as a humanoid faction detector and use him to identify the characters of the protagonist's camp? Where is your conscience? 】

"Isn't it just right for the villain to take advantage of the protagonist?" Yuan asked instead, not surprised, with a righteous tone, "The villain has no conscience."

If every villain has a conscience, morality, gentleness, kindness, and empathy, wouldn't that rob the protagonist of the line? Did the protagonists lose their jobs?

He absolutely cannot do such a thing to steal people's jobs.

So, let Qi Yu continue to maintain his kindness and innocence. As for the pain of conscience that should not be borne, let him bear it :).

Speaking of which, I was moved by myself.

System 999: [? ? ? 】

Whenever I type a string of question marks, it's not that I have a problem, it's that you have a problem.

Whenever I thought the host was already a dog, I always found that the host could be a little more dog.

[This system is a villain whitewashing system, not a villain acting system...] System 999 is weak.

"Yeah, if you don't become the villain first, how can you clean up?"

System 999 was speechless. It chooses to actively shield the host and indents the small dark room by itself.

Qi Yu still didn't know that the team who should have supported him in the original plot had already been recorded in the small book by his beloved imperial brother.

- This little fat girl's emotional changes are too easy to understand, even if you don't need to ask him, you can see who he naturally likes more deeply.

What's more, it's not and it's not really relying on Qi Yu to distinguish the enemy's camp. The faction identification of this little fat girl is just one more screening.

When he was basking in the sun some time ago, those secret guards were not idle, and they all followed the instructions of Yuanbuwei and investigated important courtiers Xungui one by one. Now the information obtained from the investigation is still in Yuanbuwei's study. .

Due to the short period of time, the information that is too classified has not been investigated, but they have listed everything they have done in the past.

Many people may not see any tendency on the surface, but combined with their words, deeds, and actions in the past, Yuan Buwei, who has always been good at guessing people's hearts, can always find out the true intentions of these people from clues.

Whether it is a pure and honest minister who is dedicated to the public, or a greedy person who forms a gang, or is foolishly loyal to the emperor, he has long been developed by the emperor into a complete confidant...

This is the first screening.

There is also a partial list given by Qin Mo after he surrendered.

Combined with today's third screening...

Yuan Buwei casually reclined on the seat, raised a delicate white jade wine glass, raised his head slightly, and the clear and translucent wine suddenly turned into a long waterline, which accurately fell into his lips.

Today, he came to the Prime Minister's Mansion, not really to attend a wedding banquet.

It's just that the prime minister's mansion invited almost all the princes and nobles in the capital to the scene, which was exactly what he wanted.

In order to swallow the drink, the Adam's apple rolled, and the lips wet with the drink became a little more bloody, and the corners of the lips evoked a very moving arc.

"Almost... it's time to close the net."

·

As the twilight deepened, the sound of the silk strings resounding in the mansion gradually ceased, the noise subsided, and many guests left the table one after another.

And His Royal Highness drank wine for one night, and his pale face was also dyed with a layer of red, like a haze of white jade. gas.

He seemed to be incapable of drinking, stood up with a hand on his forehead, greeted Xiao Chuanji, and left first.

Others also walked out drunk, and the guests who had been drinking too much hooked their shoulders, and from time to time, a few high-level secrets that were usually covered tightly came out of their mouths.

However, as soon as they exited the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion, a group of sergeants rushed up like wolves and tigers, as if they had already been prepared. They accurately found the target in the crowd and detained some of the guests on the spot.

When the cold wind blew, the drunken crowd woke up most of the time, and they all struggled and shouted.

"What is this? Who are you soldiers who dare to mess around at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

"Do you know the identity of this king..."

"In the dignified capital of Beijing, there are people who are so arrogant and lawless, really lawless!"

For a time, nobles, nobles, civil servants and military generals were caught on the spot, and the entrance of the prime minister's residence was extremely lively.

Those who were ignored by the sergeants were also in shock, confused and puzzled, looking at this scene in astonishment.

But when they calmed down, they noticed that, at some point, His Royal Highness, who thought he had already left, appeared in front of them and stood in the middle of the avenue.

He was dressed in black clothes, with black hair tied with a jade crown, and he stood quietly in the twilight, surrounded by many silent sergeants like stars and the moon.

"His Royal Highness, what's going on here?"

Even the prince can't arrest people for no reason like this. Everyone looked puzzled and angry.

It was not for a slight smile.

He skillfully took out a scroll of imperial decree from his sleeve again, and handed it to his side, who was also stunned by this scene, and Qi Yu, who couldn't return to God, said concisely: "Read."

"...Oh." Qi Yu was awakened by him.

The same thing has happened once before, but this time Qi Yu was calm. He skillfully accepted the imperial decree, cleared his throat, and read it seriously.

The content of this imperial decree is not difficult to understand. At the beginning, he explained the poisoning of the prince, and everyone was shocked and silent.

"...Murdering the Crown Prince is an unforgivable crime... The stakes are very important, and the Crown Prince can make a decision at the moment... Anyone involved in this case, no matter who they are, but who is suspected, can be captured on the spot and wait for the decision."

Crispy Tongyin finished reciting an imperial decree, and everyone's expressions changed again and again, and in the end, they all showed a helpless smile.

They were also very shocked by the poisoning of the prince, but because they were arrested, everyone was naturally extremely unwilling, and they shouted injustice.

But this imperial decree gave the prince great power. As long as he suspected that someone had a problem, he could take people away for investigation. And they couldn't resist.

If these people are truly innocent, they don't have to worry. With their status, the jailers couldn't be beaten.

It is just that these people have ghosts in their hearts - they are either the emperor's confidants and die-hards, or they share common interests with the emperor. They have long been aware of the emperor's attitude towards the prince, and they even contributed to it and made a lot of small actions. If the prince finds out... the consequences are simply unimaginable.

"Your Majesty really made a foolish move!"

Although they were apprehensive, no one dared to disobey the imperial decree, so they could only obediently let the sergeants take them away, sighing helplessly in their hearts, hoping that the emperor would realize the problem as soon as possible and let them out.

And what about Qi Yu?

Before he could react from the shock and anger of the emperor's brother being poisoned, and seeing a long list of people being handcuffed away, this little fat boy has fallen into a deep doubt in his life.

These people are all people he feels close to instinctively, and they have a very good attitude towards him during the banquet. They blow the rainbow fart from the heart, not like other people's superficial compliments... But I never imagined that it was This group of good people in his eyes is actually very likely to be the murderer who murdered the emperor's brother behind his back?

Thinking of the misunderstanding that Su Xuer had used a magic trick on her before, a big question appeared in Qi Yu's small eyes, and the whole person fell into confusion and grief.

... Could it be that he really has a problem?

When Yuan didn't clean up his head and tail, and then turned to look at Qi Yu, he saw this little fat man standing in the same place, his little face with baby fat was full of indescribable grief.

It was as if he had been seriously ill and died soon.

Seeing Yuanbuwei, he raised his head: "Brother QAQ, I, I seem to be poisoned too, am I going to die?"
