Chapter 86 Money can make the world go round
The incident at the Imperial College caused a lot of controversy, but at some point the wind direction changed.
"I heard that the person that Prince Shun really wanted to bully was Prince Huainan! The two young masters of the Changning Marquis's Mansion were just brave enough to do what was right, but they were treated like this. It's really disheartening..."
"That's right! The King of Huainan was the one who competed for the position with the one above. You said that Prince Shun is the younger brother of that person. Is this a deliberate revenge?"
In order to create a good reputation of being friendly and respectful to brothers, the emperor took measures to treat his brothers well after he ascended the throne.
He originally wanted to wipe out the roots of the rebellion, but was persuaded by the then Queen Mother Lu Hua.
It is said that when a new emperor ascends the throne, there should not be rivers of blood, otherwise he will be criticized for not having come to the throne in a legitimate way.
At that time, the emperor was not yet fully grown, so he could only endure it. According to the Queen Mother's arrangement, he treated the kings well.
Even a potential threat like the King of Huainan was sent back to his fiefdom.
Isn't it all for the good reputation that will go down in history?
"You again?" The emperor threw the impeachment letter on Prince Shun's head, causing him to pause, but he managed to hold on without falling. "Brother, I was wrong, but I was also wronged in this matter!"
Prince Shun felt that he was really unlucky this year. Why did he encounter such troubles twice in a row?
Obviously, the ones who are suffering are the people in Prince Shun’s mansion, so why are the troublemakers outside so one-sided?
"It's just a fight between a few kids, and those people are just spitting shit and talking nonsense!" Prince Shun felt very aggrieved, "How could I have expected so much? There are so many people in the Imperial College, and they didn't deliberately go after the Prince of Huainan!"
All we can say is that his child is unlucky and happened to offend his good son. What's wrong with teaching him a lesson?
The emperor is far away and the sky is high. If the King of Huainan has the guts, come over and beat him!
However, Song Huaian was just a hostage. Even though he was given the title of prince, he was just an abandoned child by his family.
Therefore, Prince Shun did not take him seriously at all.
The emperor turned a blind eye to Song Huaian's treatment in Shengjing City. As long as the King of Huainan behaved himself, Song Huaian would naturally have no worries about his life.
If he doesn't behave himself... then this child will be a dead man.
do not mind.
"How is it related to Marquis Changning again?" The emperor was also puzzled. Last time it was the Lu family, why is it this time again?
Is it a coincidence?
Or was it intentional?
Prince Shun was simple-minded and grumbled to the emperor, "How would this minister know? Perhaps our horoscopes are incompatible, so every time I meet their family, I have bad luck!"
The emperor frowned and snorted, "What a twisted theory!"
"The current rumors are very unfavorable to you, so resolve them as soon as possible. If they affect me, you know the consequences." The emperor spoke calmly, but Prince Shun was frightened and broke out in a cold sweat!
He understood how much his royal brother valued reputation, even to an incomprehensible degree.
So he kowtowed immediately and said, "Don't worry, my royal brother. I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation!"
When Prince Shun returned to the palace, he called the princess over. He vented all the grievances he had suffered from the emperor on the woman in front of him.
Snapped!
A loud slap directly slapped the princess so hard that she couldn't even stand. The servants beside her lowered their heads and dared not move rashly. They even breathed carefully, fearing that they would be the next target.
"Your Highness, what happened?" There were tears in the princess' eyes, which was a true reaction to being hurt by the beating.
But when she spoke, there was no trace of anger in her voice, instead she was flattering, "Did I do something wrong to make the prince angry?"
She blinked and tears fell, but there was no hatred in them, only affection.
Prince Shun calmed down a bit, sat down and said, "What happened to the Changning Marquisate? My brother has come to me, how did you do it?!"
The princess clenched her hands violently, she was even angrier than when she was slapped by the prince just now!
She asked why the prince suddenly got angry at her for no reason, it turned out it was because of the matter at Changning Marquis' Mansion!
"It's all Shen Ruoyan's fault. She taught these two good sons. Xian'er just taught Song Huaian a little lesson, but they both insisted on showing off. I only gave them a small punishment, but she wanted to make it known to everyone. It's really hateful!"
"I don't care what she does or what you do. This matter has become too big and has made my brother unhappy. You should think about how to deal with it yourself!"
Prince Shun is too lazy to care. He can't manage the palace properly all day and keeps causing trouble outside. He is really as stupid as a pig!
If it weren't for the fact that she is still of some use to her mother's family, I would have wanted to replace this princess long ago!
"Your Highness, calm down. I understand." The princess stroked his chest and coaxed him to calm down. "Those lowly people outside are shallow-minded. They just follow what others say and don't have their own brains at all."
She smiled and didn't take it seriously. "Isn't it just a rumor? Once I spend some money to hire some people, I will be able to turn the situation around."
Money makes the world go round. No matter what happens, as long as you have power, is there anything that can't be solved?
Prince Shun glanced at her with dissatisfaction in his eyes, "Spending the Prince's Palace's money?"
The princess quickly shook her head, "No, no, no, since it was caused by me, I will naturally solve it myself."
Her dowry was generous, so all this was not a problem.
If people knew that a princess lived like a dog in front of the prince and even had to use her dowry to cover the huge expenses of the prince's mansion, they would probably laugh so hard that their teeth would fall out!
But one is willing to fight and the other is willing to be beaten. The princess is really deeply in love with Prince Shun, comparable to Shen Ruoyan back then.
However, her deep affection was only for one person, while her tyranny and cruelty were directed towards everyone!
"Come on, find the storytellers in the city and have them tell the stories according to the book given by this princess! If they tell the stories well, there will be a big reward! If they don't tell the stories well, you will have to take care of their skins!"
The palace acted quickly, and storytellers across the city had their doors knocked on that night.
Even if some of them were not found, as long as they showed up in a teahouse to tell stories, they would be immediately targeted, and then - threatened or bribed!
As a result, the wind direction in the city quickly changed.
The stories told by the storytellers were all consistent. Although none of them pointed the finger at the palace, the book given by the princess put all the blame on the Changning Marquisate. How could it be believed?
The people have heard so much before, and now you tell them that everything before was wrong and what is now is right?
They are not fools, they have brains.
It becomes clearer what is right and what is wrong.
After Shen Ruoyan knew about this, she not only did not panic, but she also asked people to add fuel to the fire, helping the princess to make the fire burn more and more fiercely.
Since she is so smart, she wants to use this method to frame others and cover up the truth.
Then, I must lend her a helping hand——
Otherwise, how can you enjoy the show?
