Chapter 779 Who is Suspected
Long Lihui, who was about to go back to the tent for a nap, was shocked when he saw prince was holding Cai Mushi in his arms. He would never believe that the two of them had no affair.
Not only did he see it, but others saw it too.
After all, the person involved is the crown prince. Furthermore, the crown prince recently intends to take a concubine. Furthermore, Cai Mushi has previously been known to be a fickle person, so it is not surprising that these two people behave like this.
Although it is not uncommon, there were still many people who watched the fun and talked about it.
Someone asked Long Lihui: "Prince, what do you think about this matter?"
Long Lihui snorted and laughed: "What do you want to see? Eavesdrop?"
Everyone laughed.
Inside the tent, the attendant saw the prince carrying a girl in his arms and left tactfully.
"Your Highness, I think this matter needs further consideration." Cai Mushi said in a low voice.
She had never expected that the prince would want it at this moment.
The prince threw her on the bed and immediately began to untie his robe.
"Many people saw me carrying you into the tent. Even if you leave now, do you think you can still explain yourself?" He laughed, "Cai Mushi, you have no way out."
He hates it most when women play tricks on him.
I've been rejected by her once before, so I won't let her go easily this time no matter what.
After saying that, he threw himself onto the bed.
Cai Mushi's heart sank, knowing that she had no way out at this moment. She thought for a moment and simply climbed onto the prince's neck.
"Will Your Highness give me a title?"
"Of course." The prince tore open her clothes.
Although Cai Tingzhou is not the prime minister of the cabinet now, he is still the prime minister.
To give face to Cai Tingzhou, one must naturally give Cai Mushi a reputation.
She is just a concubine. As long as she can win over other forces, her role can be maximized.
Besides, if a woman comes to you on her own initiative, it would be a waste not to sleep with her.
After saying that, he started to bite her.
Cai Mushi stopped him and asked, "When will Your Highness give it to me?"
"Today I will ask the emperor for advice. Are you satisfied?"
The man bit her lip.
At this moment, Cai Mushi was still pushing him, her mind racing.
Many people had just seen her being carried into the tent by the prince. Even if they did not do anything, it was clear to outsiders that something had happened.
Besides, the incident between her and Dong Kuang had caused a big uproar and her reputation was damaged.
Now that she had the opportunity and the promise, she no longer hesitated and began to cater to the man.

In October, the autumn wind is bleak.
The emperor returned to the palace and, with a frown on his face, let the imperial physician apply medicine and bandage his arm.
There was clearly nothing wrong with the prince touching the bear, but when he touched the bear, he was bitten immediately.
If your arm is bitten by a bear, the worst consequence is that you will lose the entire arm.
If the right arm could not be saved, for an emperor, he would not be able to review memorials in the future. Who would benefit the most?
After thinking for a while, he ordered the eunuch standing beside him: "Old Song, have Fu Ciyi and the others returned to the capital?"
"Does the emperor want to summon you?" Eunuch Song asked, bowing.
"The four young men who caught the giant bear, as well as the young lady from the Fu family, must all be summoned to the palace."
"Yes, old slave, go right away."
Eunuch Song stepped back.
After leaving the bedroom, Eunuch Song called three young eunuchs and went to the Fu, Yan and Pang families respectively.
"If they haven't returned yet, you guys should wait and make sure they come to the palace to see the emperor as soon as possible."
"Yes, Master." The young eunuchs said yes and left.
-
Fu Ciyi and others had already returned home, and when someone from the palace came to deliver an oral order, they followed it and entered the palace.
The emperor met them in the imperial study.
"You're back quite early." He smiled kindly, "Do you know why I was in such a hurry to find you?"
He glanced at them as he questioned them.
Seeing that the four young men were silent, he said to Yan Funing, "Young lady from the Fu family, you speak."
"When the Emperor asked me for painkillers, he said he would reward people based on their merits. Could this be the case?"
"You are quite brave." The emperor laughed again, "Before that, I want to know if there is anything wrong with the enclosure these past two days?"
"Fu Ciyi, you speak."
Fu Ciyi raised his hand and bowed: "The horses prepared by the royal family were probably tampered with. On the first day, someone fell off the horse. On the second day, the situation continued."
The emperor frowned: "Is this true?"
Pang Gaozhuo clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, this is true. The day before yesterday, my sister broke her arm, Prince Chi broke her leg, and today, Prime Minister Cai's son seemed to have fainted."
Yan Xinghe also said: "Many other people were injured as well. Because the injuries were not serious, no one took it seriously. Now that I think about it, there is something wrong."
Yan Bojian pointed at the scratch on his face and said, "Your Majesty, look, this is what I got from falling. I almost ruined my handsome face."
The emperor smiled when he heard this, but he stopped smiling in a moment and turned his head to order someone, "Go check."
Someone immediately took the order and left.
He came back not long after and reported: "Your Majesty, some of the horses that came back with the carriage did show signs of tampering."
"Are there any traces?"
"Some horses' hooves have been pried open, and some horses were probably fed croton seeds, and are now suffering from diarrhea."
Hearing this, the emperor's face darkened.
You have to know that the horses that came back with him were all his fine horses. His horses had been tampered with, and the horses still left in the paddock must be even worse.
What is frightening and chilling is that if he, with his old body, were to go hunting, the consequences would be disastrous.
He placed the teacup in his hand heavily on the table and said, "Who do you think is the most suspicious?"
Fu Ciyi said: "Anyone who wants to stand out in the hunting grounds is suspected."
The emperor asked with great interest, "Minister Fu also caught the bear. So, does that mean he is also a suspect?"
"I am arguing from the surface of the case. The person who caught the bear can get the most attention during the hunting period, so he is naturally suspicious. Those who did not catch the bear but had such motives are also suspicious. Of course, since the four of us can point out problems that others have not mentioned, it can be seen that our suspicion can be cleared."
"I understand."
The royal children and the children of aristocratic families went to the enclosure. The children of aristocratic families basically had one guard for each family, while the royal children brought more followers.
Among them, the prince brought the most people.
It can be said that the prince did a lot of homework in order to catch the bear.
His determination to win, coupled with the fact that he was bitten by a bear...
This prince is not up to the task!
If the prince is like this, then the candidate for the chief minister of the cabinet cannot be chosen from the prince's party.
"You four young men are quite skilled. I have asked you about your abilities when you caught the bear. Tell me, who made the greatest contribution to catching the giant bear?"
Yan Bojian bowed and said, "Your Majesty, it is indeed not easy to catch a giant bear. It requires not only skills and strength, but also wisdom. Among the four of us, Lord Fu has made the greatest contribution, followed by Lord Yan, then General Pang, and finally me."
The emperor raised his eyebrows and looked over Fu Ciyi and Yan Xinghe. These two had protected him earlier, and he already knew their abilities.
His eyes finally settled on Pang Gaozhuo: "Tell me, is what Yan Bojian said true?"
"That's true." Pang Gaozhuo nodded.
"it is good!"
The emperor laughed out loud.
