Chapter 271: Thorough investigation
When I went to court the next day, a minister held up a folding document with both hands and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to report to your Majesty."
What's up?
The emperor raised his eyebrows and his eyes became sharp. He waved to the father-in-law next to him.
The father-in-law received the signal and stepped forward to take the fold from the minister's hand.
"Your Majesty," the father-in-law said obsequiously as he handed the book over.
Taking the envelope, the emperor took a casual look and realized that the envelope was to reprimand the eldest prince.
The general idea is that three women suddenly died inexplicably in the eldest prince's camp?
There are words written in the booklet that are eye-catching and colorful.
The emperor's eyes widened in disbelief. Is this what his good son did when he went to the border?
"This is..." The emperor raised his head and looked at the minister.
"Your Majesty, I beg you to investigate this matter thoroughly. If this matter is true, I am afraid that if it is not stopped, other young girls will suffer from this murder again. This is fine, but if the eldest prince becomes more violent in the future, he will do something like this.
Something more uncontrollable would be bad." The minister said seriously.
He was already very dissatisfied with the eldest prince. With his nature, the eldest prince would very likely be able to do such a thing.
Thinking of those women who were in the boudoir, the minister felt a pity in his heart. Such a good woman, but why did she meet the eldest prince?
If they follow the normal trajectory, they will definitely be able to live a good life.
It is impossible for a person like the eldest prince to become an emperor. How can he not worry when he thinks that his monarch will be such a tyrant in the future?
"Your Majesty, what do you think?" the minister continued.
Without even thinking about it, it was probably the eldest prince who did this.
The emperor's eyebrows became serious, a light flashed in his eyes, and his heart was extremely angry.
He threw the envelope aside angrily, and then said, "Is he taking advantage of the fact that the sky is high and the emperor is far away to do whatever he wants? What a bastard!"
"Come here! Investigate this matter carefully for me! I want to see if this matter was done by him!" the emperor said angrily.
This son is really getting more and more unrestrained.
If you can even do this kind of thing, I’m afraid the things you can do in the future will be even bolder!
If he didn't like me as the emperor that day, could he just have his head cut off from his neck?
Kill people if you want, do whatever you want? How could you give birth to such a son?
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and the emperor's face turned red with anger.
Seeing the emperor's visible anger, a stagnant atmosphere filled the entire hall.
At this time, everyone was silent and did not dare to speak. They only felt that their whole bodies were haunted by the emperor's anger, and cold sweat was dripping from their foreheads.
I was afraid that if I was not careful, I would be remembered by the angry emperor at this moment.
"Your Majesty, but, but this is just a guess, there is insufficient evidence..." Just when the atmosphere in the hall solidified, a courtier came out and said a little embarrassedly.
There are no facts to prove that this is true. The minister just now was just a piece of news he heard.
If you act rashly, I don’t know what the eldest prince thinks. It is also unfair.
Not enough evidence?
This is indeed it.
The emperor also thought of this at this time and frowned. It was really troublesome.
So he waved his hand reluctantly and said, "Forget it, I won't embarrass you anymore."
He could not give the order, but the emperor did not give up.
He really decided to investigate this matter.
Although he couldn't give the order, he didn't have other options.
After the court was over, the emperor returned to his palace and called out his secret guards.
"Your Majesty? I wonder what your orders are?" said the leader of the secret guard.
Looking at his confidants, the emperor showed a satisfied expression.
At critical moments, you still have to rely on your own confidants.
The emperor briefly talked about the affairs of the court today.
"You guys, remember to check it carefully after you go to the border, and be sure to present the evidence in front of me." The emperor looked majestic and expressionless.
These secret guards are his confidants, people he can truly trust. If they go, they will be able to receive these evidences sooner than it would take.
"Yes!" Several secret guards looked at each other and nodded.
This eldest prince may have offended the emperor.
When they arrived at the border, several secret guards immediately started investigating the matter. Their abilities were already good, otherwise they would not have been entrusted with important tasks by the emperor.
After several investigations, several secret guards exchanged their information with each other. Unexpectedly, although they found that the situation was true, the eldest prince's men handled the funeral affairs very cleanly and took everything into consideration, so they did not ask anyone to arrest him.
to the handle.
My own description alone cannot serve as evidence.
Several secret guards looked at each other.
Therefore, no matter how noisy the rumors were, the eldest prince could not be convicted solely on one basis.
"This is going to be difficult. I don't know how I will explain it to the emperor when I go back," a secret guard said worriedly.
"Now that you've come, let's take care of it. Besides, the emperor won't get angry casually." Another secret guard said.
"Yeah, that's what you said." He nodded.
However, I was also a little frustrated. Before coming, several people were prepared to catch the eldest prince's tail, but they didn't want to touch even a hair of the tail.
How can this gap not make people feel comfortable?
"First Prince, I noticed that some people from the Imperial City have recently arrived in the city. Maybe the Emperor has noticed something." His subordinates were alerted to the disturbance in the city and hurriedly went to the First Prince's side.
If you think about it carefully, they have indeed been more high-profile these days.
It’s better to avoid these days.
"Really?" The eldest prince listened to his respectful persuasion, but his expression was completely disapproving.
"Eldest Prince? It's better for us to be more restrained these days. If the Emperor really knows what you have done, I am afraid that the Emperor will lose his heart." Seeing him like this, his subordinates felt helpless and continued.
"Yeah, yeah, I understand," the eldest prince waved his hand and nodded casually.
Although he agreed on the surface, he didn't take it to heart.
His subordinates are indeed good and useful, but they are a little too cautious.
Did his father know about this so soon? The eldest prince thought it was impossible. Besides, all traces had been cleaned up, leaving no trace.
