Princess Consort Is No Pushover

Chu Xuanchen frowned coldly, "Things will develop like this! Even if the common people praise another person, they will not be so active. There must be something wrong with it!"

"My subordinates also suspect that there is a problem. According to my investigation, at first, many people were grateful to the prince and praised him spontaneously. But after everyone praised him, they didn't mention it again. As a result, a few days ago, a mysterious force suddenly emerged. , They seem to have made an appointment to take the lead in composing poems for you on the street, and the poems they wrote secretly focus on exalting you and belittling Emperor Hongyuan. In addition, someone in Jiangzhou quickly set up a poem for you There are several merit monuments, but the common people do not have such financial resources. My subordinates found out that there is someone planning behind this scene, and someone is contributing money and efforts for the common people, leading the common people to build temples and monuments for you." Mo Li said.

When Chu Xuanchen heard this, his eyes were filled with strong wind and rain.

His face was as cold as ice, and he said sternly: "Building temples and erecting steles is something that ancient people would do when they enshrined gods and worshiped saints. This king thinks that his achievements in water control are not bad, but he has not reached such a level. From this point of view, Someone must use this matter to frame this king. It is a good thing that the people like this king, but some people use this matter to fuel the flames, deliberately promote this king to a high position, and take the opportunity to belittle the emperor. At that time, the emperor will have to kill this king reason."

"Yes, my lord. Your Majesty is suspicious by nature. He is very jealous of you, but now the folks praise you as a saint. If you let the Emperor know about this, he may be against you. Do you want to send someone to stop it?" Don't let those students and common people praise you again?" Mo Li worried.

Chu Xuanchen raised his hand, "No, public opinion has already fermented, and it's useless for you to stop it. To prevent someone from taking advantage of this to make a fuss, you should immediately send someone to conduct a thorough investigation and find out who is behind the scenes!"

"Yes, my lord." Mo Li said.

After Mo Li left, Chu Xuanchen stared sharply into the distance, with a strong murderous look in his eyes.

First, Zhang Qing was arrested, and then the public opinion was guided. It seems that there is a pair of invisible hands inside, manipulating all this, just to bring him down!

As soon as Moli left, Mozhu hurried in, "My lord, there is news from the palace. The emperor said that the virtuous king has not solved the case of Mr. Zhang for so long. He was very angry. He said that Mr. Zhang is a second-rank A high-ranking official has repeatedly entered and exited the red building, and was involved in a murder case. He has lost the morality of an official. He has asked Eunuch Xu to go to Jingzhaoyin to preach, saying that King Xianxian should solve the case within three days. If the case cannot be solved within three days, The emperor will directly execute Mr. Zhang!"

Chu Xuanchen raised his eyebrows coldly, "Is the emperor already so impatient?"

That's why he wanted to get rid of Zhang Qing?

"Yes, my lord, what shall we do now?" Mo Zhu asked worriedly.

Chu Xuanchen lowered his eyes and fell into deep thought.

At this time, Liu Ruyan's voice suddenly came from outside, "My lord, that's great, my subordinates have found a witness!"

Hearing Liu Ruyan's voice, Chu Xuanchen and Mo Zhu looked at each other happily, and when Liu Ruyan walked in, Chu Xuanchen asked, "Ruyan, what witness did you find?"

Liu Ruyan said happily: "My lord, you sent your subordinates to investigate near Zhang's residence. After searching around Zhang's residence for a few days, your subordinates finally lived up to their fate and found two witnesses who can clear Mr. Zhang's charges. , and return him his innocence."

"Two witnesses? Which two witnesses?" Chu Xuanchen asked.
