123, Prince Zhu Ciyan made a bet, and Wu Sangui grabbed the letter on the spot
After hearing Zhu Cilang's words, everyone present was stunned.
Wu Sangui's study?
This does sound like a hidden secret place, but the problem is...
Why is Zhu Ciyang so sure?
Wu Sangui thought of it and said seriously: "Why should the Prince of Crown Prince use this method to delay time? If the Prince of Crown Prince feels that searching the minister's study can find something that is not good for him, then it may only disappoint the prince."
Chongzhen also looked at Zhu Ciyang with some confusion and said, "Yun'er, are you sure?"
Zhu Cilang had a serious expression and said seriously: "Father, I actually knew that the Secretary Wu was investigating some things about Mr. Wu two days ago. Since he wanted to investigate Mr. Wang, it would be reasonable for Mr. Wang to investigate him in turn?"
Chongzhen couldn't help but pause. Although Zhu Cixuan's principle seemed a bit wrong, logically speaking, it was completely fine.
Zhu Cilang continued to speak: "I didn't have any hope at first. After all, even the people from the East Factory can't leave now. However, when I went to the Prince's personal army to select, I accidentally learned from someone that there was a very secret thing in Wu Shangshu's study, which is enough to prove that Wu Shangshu was slandering his sons!"
Wu Sangui couldn't help but say, "Impossible! It's definitely this person who is slandering Weichen, and he also asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to call this person. Weichen is willing to confront him in person!"
Zhu Cilang smiled and said, "You think I am stupid? If you really confront you, that's what you'll delay."
The two couldn't argue for a while.
Zhu Cilang will definitely not give in, and Wu Sangui also knows that everyone is breaking up now, and success or failure will naturally not give in.
Seeing the two arguing, Chongzhen felt a headache and hesitated for a moment.
Zhu Ciyang is his son and successor, but Wu Sangui gives Chongzhen the feeling that he is also a loyal minister. Which side should we believe in?
Zhu Cilang was too lazy to continue arguing with Wu Sangui, so he said very simply: "Father, if the Erchen did not find evidence in Wu Sangui's study, then the Erchen is willing to admit all the accusations against the Erchen and ask the Emperor to replace the Prince Erchen!"
Zhu Cilang directly threw out a bomb and used the position of the prince as a bargaining chip.
It's systemic, it's so tough!
When Chongzhen heard this, he was indeed shocked, and the balance in his heart began to turn towards Zhu Cixuan.
In this world, who would joke about the position of prince? That would be the emperor in the future!
Chongzhen finally made up his mind and said, "Since that's the case, then all the Qing family will accompany me to the Wu Qing family's mansion to see it. This matter will always have a result today!"
Wu Sangui was a little panicked and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, this is definitely the prince's delaying strategy. Please think twice!"
There are many secrets in Wu Sangui's study. After all, under normal circumstances, the study is the most private and heavily guarded place, so he doesn't need to worry about others running in.
But now if you really find something for Zhu Cilang, Wu Sangui will be very passive.
However, since Chongzhen had made a decision, he naturally would not regret it. He waved his hand and said, "No need to say more, just make a decision, let's go!"
Everyone set out in a carriage.
Zhu Cixuan and the British Duke were in a carriage. The British Duke said with some concern: "Your Highness, can you really catch Wu Sangui's handle this time?"
Zhu Cilang smiled and said, "Don't worry, Duke, since I dare to say that in front of my father, I will naturally be responsible."
The British Duke nodded, then snorted, and said, "I didn't expect that Wu Sangui is really brave and dared to slander His Highness the Crown Prince in public like this. When this matter is over, the old minister must mobilize the officials he has made to study hard and let him get out of the capital!"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Cixuan's smile became stronger and stronger: "Duke, why wait until this matter is over? This time, I will let Wu Sangui know what a tiger's beard is inconvenient to touch!"
As the saying goes, revenge is not overnight. If you want to do it, just kill it on the spot!
Half an hour later, the imperial guard arrived at the Wu Mansion.
Wu Xiang, the owner of the Wu Mansion, also rushed to the door of the mansion to greet him: "I have met Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince, and You All."
Wu Xiang was a little flattered.
Chongzhen glanced at Wu Xiang, and a disgusting expression flashed across his face that was not easy to be noticed by others.
It was Wu Xiang who ran away more than ten years ago, which not only caused all the elite troops of the Ming Dynasty to lose, but also caused Zu Dashou to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, causing very heavy losses to the Ming Dynasty.
Every time I see Wu Xiang, Chongzhen seems to see the tens of thousands of unjust souls who died tragically crying!
Chongzhen calmed down and said lightly: "Wu Qing's family, I came here mainly for your son's business. Take us to Wu Shangshu's study room to take a look."
When Wu Xiang heard this, he was a little confused. He subconsciously glanced at Wu Sangui and found that Wu Sangui's expression was also quite solemn.
Wu Xiang's heart was thumping, and he couldn't help but say carefully: "Your Majesty, did the dog son commit something?"
Wu Xiang actually knew that Wu Sangui was planning some kind of big action these days, but Wu Sangui didn't look down on this father from the bottom of his heart, so Wu Xiang really didn't know the real inside story.
Chongzhen said slowly: "You can lead the way."
Wu Xiang had no choice but to lead the way, and he had to be scared along the way.
Zhu Cilang followed Chongzhen with steady steps.
A little behind, several ministers who were closer to Zhu Cixuan were also whispering.
Li Banghua approached Fan Jingwen and whispered: "Master Fan, what do you think about this?"
Fan Jingwen looked around and confirmed that no one else could hear it, and then replied softly: "I feel that the prince is in big trouble this time."
Li Banghua was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Looking at this, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seems to have controlled some of the secrets of Lord Wu."
Fan Jingwen sighed and said, "The real secrets are hidden in my heart. How could someone find them? If something really happens later, I will just keep the crown prince as the chief minister of the cabinet and work with the British Duke to save His Royal Highness."
After hearing this, Li Banghua's expression became more and more serious.
While speaking, Wu Xiang, who was walking in front of the road, had already stopped and said respectfully to Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, here is the Dogzi's study in front."
Chongzhen looked at it and found that Wu Sangui's study was still very quiet, with flowers and grass, and the environment was beautiful, which was very suitable for office and discussion.
Chongzhen glanced at Zhu Cixuan behind him and said slowly: "Yan'er, it's your turn."
Zhu Cilang nodded when he heard this. Without saying too much, he pushed the door and entered the study.
Seeing this, Wu Xiang was shocked and wanted to speak, but found that even Wu Sangui didn't speak, so he closed his mouth again.
Just as Zhu Cilang stepped into Wu Sangui's study door, the system's voice sounded at the right time.
"Congratulations to the host for completing the sign-in. The check-in task is triggered: Please open the agency at the marked place, and take out the secret letter from it and make it public."
After the system sounded down, Zhu Cilang's eyes suddenly seemed to be attracted by something, and involuntarily landed in an unobtrusive corner in the study.
"It seems that it's here." Zhu Cilang smiled, but was not in a hurry to go, but opened all the doors and windows first.
In this way, the people outside the door could see Zhu Cilang's every move in the room.
Then, Zhu Cilang walked to the place prompted by the system and reached out and pressed it.
Wu Sangui looked at Zhu Cilang's movements and his expression suddenly changed drastically.
Zhu Cilang pressed only a button, but it seemed to hold Wu Sangui's fatal hole!
With a click, a small drawer of the mechanism popped out.
Zhu Cixuan looked at the drawer and found that there was nothing inside, just a letter.
Zhu Cixuan took the letter and walked out of the room.
Wu Sangui suddenly howled: "No!"
The next moment, Wu Sangui rushed towards Zhu Cilang, and was as powerful as a mad tiger, instantly snatching the letter from Zhu Cilang's hand.
Then, Wu Sangui stuffed the letter into his mouth, chewed it hard, and then swallowed it hard.
Everyone obviously didn't expect this to happen and were stunned.
Wu Sangui swallowed the letter paper with great effort and felt relieved.
Now, there is no need to worry about the leak of the content of the letter.
He looked up at Zhu Ciyang, feeling a little happy. His Royal Highness, isn’t I going to win this time?
However, Wu Sangui did not see any frustrated expression on Zhu Cilang's face.
Zhu Cilang smiled slightly and took out another letter like a magical trick.
"Shangshu Wu, do you want to eat this letter?"
Wu Sangui was stunned on the spot.
Zhu Cilang laughed and looked at Wu Sangui with contempt.
With this old routine, do you really think I am not prepared for it?
What Wu Sangui ate was actually a piece of paper that Zhu Cixuan quietly walked off his desk.
The real letter was immediately put into the portable space after Zhu Cixuan got it. It was not until Wu Sangui snatched away the empty paper that Zhu Cixuan took out the letter again.
Just tease you, just play!
Zhu Cixuan put the letter in Chongzhen's hands: "Father, please take a look."
When Chongzhen looked at this scene, he obviously understood something. He didn't say anything anymore, so he picked up the letter and read it.
Wu Sangui's body trembled and he collapsed on the ground.
He knew very well what the letter was, it was written by Dorgon, the assistant to the Qing Dynasty!
If I saw it for Chongzhen...
Sure enough, as Chongzhen looked at it, his face suddenly changed.
Chapter completed!
