Hou Yibai is definitely a very special existence in Dayan, and many times, he can be regarded as a stand-in and spokesperson for Emperor Zhengming, and his words represent the words of Emperor Zhengming.

Hou Yibai made great contributions to Emperor Zhengming when Emperor Zhengming was competing for the throne, and he was also Emperor Zhengming's most loyal supporter and most trusted person.

Even Emperor Zhengming's trust in him surpassed that of the princes.

He is also one of the few people in Great Yan who has been made a marquis, and in addition to the royal family who may get a prince, only the duke is higher than him.

And the Duke is not something that can be sealed by anyone, he has almost reached the pinnacle that a non-royal member can achieve.

The Shenwei Battalion in his hands is known as the most elite unit in Zhongjing, responsible for the security of the palace and Emperor Zhengming, and has a pivotal position in Zhongjing.

Such a person suddenly came to Suizhou Island, and Ji Shaohong's people were shocked.

"Master Hou, you ...... How did you get here? ”

Ji Shaohong's subordinates said, and they couldn't speak smoothly.

Hou Yibai said: "I have something to see Minister Ji, please help me pass it on." ”

When Ji Shaohong's subordinates heard Hou Yibai's words, they immediately turned around and knocked on the door, shouting inside: "Minister Ji, Master Hou has something to see you." ”

In the room, Ji Shaohong was drinking with Murong Qi to celebrate.

After Murong Qi learned that the second prince and the eldest prince were successfully plotted by him and fell into the quagmire, he quietly came to Suizhou Island and personally presided over the overall situation.

Murong Qi is very satisfied with the current result, even if he can't convict the second prince and the eldest prince and pull them down, at least this time it has had a great impact on the reputation of the eldest prince and the second prince, in the competition for the throne, he has gained a very big advantage, and it can even be said that the eldest prince and the second prince have basically lost the qualification to compete with him.

He smiled and had a drink with Ji Shaohong, and was about to tell Ji Shaohong to strive to maximize the results of the battle, forcing me and the stubborn stone to involve the eldest prince and the second prince, when he heard the voices of his subordinates outside, he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart at the moment, and asked in a low voice: "Shouldn't Hou Yibai, that old horseman, be by my father's side?" How did you come to Suizhou Island? ”

Ji Shaohong also frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Now that the eldest prince and the second prince are caught in this turmoil, he must have come to Suizhou Island this time for this matter." ”

What Ji Shaohong said is actually equivalent to nonsense, Hou Yibai has the important responsibility of protecting Emperor Zhengming, and he will not leave Emperor Zhengming easily, but now he has come to Suizhou Island, naturally because of this incident.

Murong Qi whispered: "I'll avoid it first, you talk to him and see what he says." ”

Ji Shaohong said: "Yes, the third prince. ”

Murong Qi immediately put down the wine glass, stood up, entered the bedroom, and closed the door, but he didn't close the door tightly, leaving a gap, lying behind the door and peeking through the crack in the door.

After Ji Shaohong entered the bedroom with Murong Qi, he stood up and opened the door, as soon as he saw Hou Yibai outside, Ji Shaohong squeezed out a smile on his face, and greeted hypocritically: "Master Hou came to Suizhou Island, why don't you call me, I'll go to meet Master Hou." ”

Hou Yibai smiled and said, "Minister Ji is not polite, I came to Suizhou Island this time to talk to Minister Ji about something." ”

Ji Shaohong sighed and said, "Master Hou, please." ”

Hou Yibai immediately walked in the door, Ji Shaohong closed the door, and asked Hou Yibai to sit on the sofa in the living room.

Hou Yibai walked over and sat down, but saw two wine glasses on the table, one of which only had a small half glass of wine left in it, obviously someone was drinking here just now.

Hou Yibai, as the chief guard of Emperor Zhengming, shoulders the important responsibility of protecting Emperor Zhengming, and has long practiced the ability to perceive the details.

Murong Qi's slight negligence was soon discovered by Hou Yibai.

Ji Shaohong saw Hou Yibai's gaze staying on the wine glass that the third prince had just drunk, and secretly screamed in his heart, now that the eldest prince and the second prince are involved in this turmoil, the third prince appeared on Suizhou Island for no reason, it is difficult not to be suspicious.

Hou Yibai immediately quickly retracted his gaze, smiled at Ji Shaohong, and said, "Minister Ji, was there a guest just now?" ”

Ji Shaohong smiled and said, "There was indeed a guest just now, but he had already left, and he hadn't had time to accept it yet." Master Hou just said that he had something to talk to me about, but he didn't know what the matter was? ”

Hou Yibai said with a smile: "Actually, it's nothing, I heard about the eldest prince and the second prince in Zhongjing, and I felt very uneasy, so I came over to take a look." ”

Ji Shaohong said: "The Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people, I am also very embarrassed about this matter, the eldest prince and the second prince are suspected of colluding with gang members and participating in large-scale armed fights, the impact is extremely bad, and now the outside media are reporting, we can't help but handle it impartially." ”

Hou Yibai said with a smile: "Minister Ji said that the eldest prince and the second prince participated in the fight that day and colluded with the community, I don't know if there is any evidence?" ”

Ji Shaohong said: "Now the case is still in the process of trial, and it is not possible to draw a conclusion for the time being. ”

Hou Yibai said: "Minister Ji's duke is selfless, both the saint and the queen are appreciative, and before I left Beijing, the queen also praised Minister Ji personally." ”

Ji Shaohong said with a smile: "I do things but I want to be worthy of my heart, and the queen's praise is ashamed." ”

Hou Yibai heard Ji Shaohong's words, sighed, and said: "But there is an old saying that the law is nothing more than human affection, and Minister Ji is selfless in handling cases, I appreciate it more, but I still hope that Minister Ji can consider the feelings of the saint and the queen when handling the case, and it will be better." ”

When Ji Shaohong heard Hou Yibai's words, he understood that Hou Yibai wanted him to stop, so he smiled and said: "We should naturally be considerate of the feelings of the saint and the queen, but this case has a great impact, and I also have a lot of pressure." ”

Hou Yibai said: "We understand Minister Ji's difficulties, and we don't dare to hinder Minister Ji's office, but this case can't be dragged on forever, so it's best for Minister Ji to close the case as soon as possible." ”

Judging from the current situation, it is difficult for Ji Shaohong to seize the handle and convict the eldest prince and the second prince in a short period of time, so putting pressure on Ji Shaohong can also force Ji Shaohong to give up the pursuit of the eldest prince and the second prince and settle this turmoil.

This time, the incident on Suizhou Island caused a lot of shock in Zhongjing, especially the royal family.

Emperor Zhengming received the news and knew that the son of the eldest prince was also dead, so he was furious on the spot, fainted, and his physical condition became worse and worse.

The queen was also so angry that something almost happened, the prince's infighting, almost every generation will happen, and tragedies continue to be staged, just like a spell attached to the royal family.

In the end, the queen had no choice but to arrange for Hou Yibai to come to Suizhou Island in person, so that Hou Yibai could come forward and settle the incident.

After all, now that two imperial grandsons have died, the queen doesn't want both sons to go to prison because of this incident.

Hou Yibai himself is more inclined to the eldest prince, so he naturally wants to settle this matter.

When Ji Shaohong heard Hou Yibai's words, he said some words on the spot, and said with a smile: "I keep Hou Ye's words in mind, please rest assured that Hou Ye, I will definitely find out as soon as possible, and return the innocence of the two princes as soon as possible." ”

Hou Yibai snorted, and then said: "I heard that Lord Mo is also involved, and I and Lord Mo are also friends, I don't know if Minister Ji can make it convenient and let me see Lord Mo?" ”

When Ji Shaohong heard Hou Yibai's words, he was embarrassed and said, "Master Hou, this is not in accordance with the rules." ”

Hou Yibai smiled: "How about selling me a favor?" ”

Ji Shaohong looked at Hou Yibai, thought about it again, and felt that it was difficult to refuse, after all, Hou Yibai's identity was extraordinary, even the third prince had to sell his face, and said at the moment: "Hou Ye said it too seriously, okay, I'll let people arrange it, but I hope Hou Ye won't be too long, let me embarrass me." ”

Hou Yibai said: "Minister Ji rest assured, it won't be too long." ”
