MTL - Rumor Has It That I’m Pregnant with His Highness’ Child-Chapter 557 next set
The Empress Dowager Deng is a believer in Buddhism, and there is a saying in Buddhism.
She agrees with Yu Lingwei's statement.
"Yes, there is a fate between mother and son. Aijia was able to enter the palace and conceive an imperial heir back then, all because of fate."
The topic of children is like a switch, opening the chatterbox of the female relatives.
Everyone agreed and began to describe the process of their pregnancy and childbirth.
Empress Dowager Deng listened with relish.
Seeing that the Queen Mother's attention was finally taken away from herself, Yu Weiwei was secretly relieved.
She silently returned to her original position. It seemed that her plan to go home early was not successful. Now she can only sit honestly and try to reduce her sense of existence.
There are two flowers, one for each.
Xiao Juan and the rest of the princes, nobles, civil and military officials went to the Zhengde Hall with the prince after they visited the emperor.
In the past, they had to accompany the emperor to speak in the Zhengde Hall, but now the emperor is in poor health, and it is difficult to even sit up, so the prince can only do it for him.
Shen Zhuo first warmly talked to several respected patriarchs, and then changed the topic and suddenly asked Xiao Juan.
"I heard that a female corpse was fished out of the Imperial River last night. It just so happens that your judicial officer is nearby. I wonder how the case is being investigated?"
Everyone turned their heads to look at Prince Lang.
Xiao Lian stood up and responded calmly: "The female corpse has been brought back to the Justice Department, it is determined that it was a homicide, and the identity of the deceased has been identified. As for who the murderer is, further investigation is still underway."
Shen Zhuo smiled slightly.
"As expected of Prince Lang, he found out the origin of the female corpse in just one night.
I believe you should be able to find the real culprit soon, and give justice to the deceased, to secure the hearts of the people in the city, right? "
These words may seem like a compliment, but they are actually a lie.
Xiao Juan did not follow suit, and responded cautiously: "Wei Chen will definitely do his best."
Shen Zhuo: "It happens that everyone is there, why don't you make a bet, how long will it take you to solve this case?"
After he finished speaking, he looked at everyone present.
Immediately, many people echoed, expressing their desire to participate in this bet.
Xiao Juan glanced at those people, all of them were princelings.
There were many people who didn’t say a word, but they didn’t intend to speak for King Lang.
They obviously don't want to get involved in this matter.
Shen Zhuo said with a smile: "Why doesn't Prince Lang speak? With your ability, it should be easy to solve such a case."
Speaking of which, Xiao Juan has no room for refusal.
But Xiao Wan said.
"His Royal Highness the Prince does not know that Wei Chen has asked the Emperor for a three-month long vacation.
When Wei Chen will leave Yujing tomorrow, the case of Yuhe Nv’s corpse can only be handed over to others in the Justice Department to investigate.
Weichen cannot make this bet with you, and I hope His Royal Highness will forgive me. "
Shen Zhuo didn't expect him to say such a thing, he was stunned at first, and then heaved a sigh, very regretful.
"That being the case, being alone is not good, no matter how hard it is to be strong."
Then he asked again as if he suddenly remembered something.
"You're going to be away for three months. There are no leaders in the Justice Department. What if something happens?"
Xiao Juan's heart jumped, and he had a bad premonition.
He said in a deep voice, "Although Wei Chen is not there, there are still many capable people in the Justice Department. They can take care of the Justice Department for Wei Chen."
Shen Zhuo expressed disapproval.
"No matter how talented those people are, they can only handle small things.
If you really want to encounter any major emergency, you still have to have a serious person in charge.
Well, I will send someone to help you manage the Justice Department.
Guarantee that you will take care of the Justice Department in an orderly manner during the three months you leave Yujing. "
Xiao Wan's heart sank.
Prince is trying to install someone in the Justice Department while he is not in Yujing, and divide the power in his hands.
Those princelings spoke out in support of the prince's proposal.
Xiao Jian said calmly, "Since it was a kind offer from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Wei Chen accepted it."
After he finished speaking, he clenched his fists towards Shen Zhuo, but he didn't mean to resist at all.
Now it was Shen Zhuo’s turn to feel uneasy.
Based on his understanding of Xiao Juan, Xiao Juan is not the kind of character who would allow others to interfere in the justice system, but now Xiao Juan agreed to his suggestion without saying a word, which is unreasonable!
When things go wrong, there must be demons.
Shen Zhuo was secretly vigilant, he asked with a smile.
"King Lang thinks it would be better to send someone to help you manage the Justice Department?"
Xiao Juan: "All the ministers listen to His Royal Highness."
Shen Zhuo: "You have always been in charge of the Justice Department. You are most familiar with the Justice Department. You should be the one to choose the right person."
Xiao Juan: "But you are His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and you are the future master of the Dayan Dynasty, and Wei Chen should listen to you."
These words sounded flattering to the prince, but in Shen Zhuo's ears, it was like cold water, which made him wake up all of a sudden.
He is very aware of his father's temper, and is extremely suspicious, even if he has been named a prince, even if his father has been bedridden for a while.
But the royal father still won't be completely at ease with him.
Xiao Juan listened to his words and said that he was the future master of the Dayan Dynasty. If this matter spread to the father's ears, he would not have to think to guess how the father would react.
Father Emperor will definitely feel that he secretly attracts important officials of the court, intends to take the Justice Department for his own use, and can’t wait to replace Father Emperor.
Shen Zhuo was secretly annoyed, because he underestimated Xiao Juan, this guy seems to be taciturn and not sociable, but he has a lot of scheming in his heart.
Shen Zhuo quickly sorted out his thoughts and said calmly.
"Don't want to say such things as the king of Langjun.
Not long after Gu was crowned prince, he didn’t understand many things, and he still needed the help of ministers.
As for who to send to help you manage the Justice Department?
Since you can't give a suitable candidate, let the elders discuss it together.
Really can't be alone, so I can only ask the emperor for advice with a cheeky face. "
Xiao Juan: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is wise, and the ministers are convinced."
Shen Zhuo immediately changed the subject and talked about other things.
This little episode just passed.
No one seems to take it to heart.
But in fact, everyone is guessing who the prince will send to temporarily manage the duties of the Justice Department?
And Shen Zhuo himself was pondering secretly, how should he explain this to his father?
After lunch, everyone can finally leave.
Yu Cuiwei almost couldn't wait to stand up. Just as she was about to go out with the other female relatives, she heard Empress Wen suddenly speak.
"Princess Langjun, wait a second, this palace has something to tell you."
Yu Weiwei had to hold back the anxiety in her heart and stop in place.
Queen Wen stood up: "Bengong is going back to Fengyi Palace, let's talk while walking on the road."
Yu Weiwei: "Here."
The two walked out of Biquan Palace and got into their own sedan chairs.
Originally, the two sedan chairs were in tandem, but for the convenience of speaking, Queen Wen specially allowed Yu Weiwei's sedan chair to walk side by side with her.
The distance between the two sedan chairs is very close.
Queen Wen asked slowly with a stove in her hand.
"I heard that Chery Park put on a new play last night called "The Story of Two Shu"?"
