A thorough investigation will be conducted throughout the capital city, with special focus on those who use poison. This includes doctors, martial artists, and anyone else who possesses knowledge of p...Chapter 339 Li Yinhu is Responsible
Li Yinhu's mood was somewhat heavy.
I have never called myself when attending court at the Taihe Hall before.
This time, he was called out specifically. Clearly, the prince wanted to give him another lesson.
gritting his teeth, Li Yinhǔ said solemnly: “I know. You may wait outside first.”
"Yes."
Outside, Xu Wei stood respectfully, his face impassive, waiting for his new master, Li Yinhu, to emerge.
"Just wait here, everything. I'll tell you when I return from court."
Li Yinhu glanced at Long Huaiyu, patted his shoulder, and said in a warm voice: "Young Master Long, this king doesn't want such things to happen either, but since it has happened, we have to face it and solve it. Self-pity and fear won't solve any problems, understand"
Long Huaiyu dared not look at Li Yinhu's emotionless eyes. He trembled all over as he lowered his head and said, "Yes, I understand."
"I hope you truly understand."
Li Yinhu smiled meaningfully and said, "Go back to your own house. Before I return, don't go anywhere else, okay"
Though the words were spoken as a suggestion, the tone was completely cold and devoid of any emotion. There wasn't even a shred of room for Long Huaiyu to refuse.
"Good," Long Huaiyu replied with difficulty.
Li Yinhu smiled in satisfaction and then turned to leave.
When Li Yinhu arrived outside the Taihe Hall, the Crown Prince had not yet arrived.
But all the officials who were notified have already arrived.
Li Yinhu cast a glance and saw that all three university scholars, Zhao Xuanji, Zhang Biwu, and Fu Yuzhi, who were now the remaining members of the cabinet, were present. Then came Qian Shiyan, the newly appointed Minister of Punishments, Wang Fuyong, the Minister of Dali Temple, and Zhang Linjiu, the left Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. All the key figures in the court's judicial system were there.
With three university scholars added to the cabinet, this lineup is undeniably impressive.
One meeting is enough.
"Grand Tutor."
Li Yinhu arrived and first bowed to Zhao Xuanji.
Zhao Xuanji smiled and returned the greeting, saying, "Your Highness."
When the two spoke, everyone else naturally knew better than to interrupt and moved aside.
"My lord... today is no ordinary day. Prince Consort suddenly summoned us, must there be something important" Li Yinhu asked.
Zhao Xuanji said lightly, "Your Highness should know best."
Li Yinhu's heart skipped a beat. He knew these things couldn't be hidden from the shrewd Zhao Xuanji. He immediately said, "Sir, this time with the Long family, I am indeed involved, but I didn't want it to come to this. Please help me, Sir."
Zhao Xuanji said plainly: “Your Highness has ideas, that’s a good thing, but before taking action, you should think carefully. Such rashness underestimates the East Palace, and it also makes the old minister very difficult. Before this, I wasn't notified by Your Highness. Now that something has gone wrong, you ask the old minister to help you, but the old minister is like a skilled cook with no rice.”
Li Yinhu bit his cheek.
He had never really thought about telling Zhao Xuanji about this before.
Control the location, control the Dragon Clan, this is his grand scheme.
Although he relied on Zhao Xuanji to fight against Li Chen, he was also unwilling to let Zhao Xuanji hold all the cards.
But he knew, if he succeeded, it would be fine. But if he failed, then in front of Zhao Xuanji, he could only bow his head again.
"My lord, I was wrong. I was too hasty. Even if I have a thousand faults, right now the East Palace is clearly trying to take advantage of the situation. On such an important day as New Year's Eve, they called us all together. Who knows what the Crown Prince will do next It's more important to deal with the immediate matter at hand. Afterward, I promise to personally apologize." come up with a way."Nodding, Zhao Xuanji said, "Well, Zhang brother, I always trust you to do things.""By the way, I'm planning to send someone to assassinate the Crown Prince."This stone-shattering...
