Episode 17
When Xiao Jingrui learned that Zhuo Qingyao was injured in the assassination of Shen Zhui, he burst into Xie Yu's study angrily and asked his father why he was a loyal minister and what he was a loving father? He accused him of not doing the right thing.Xie Yu became angry and slapped him away.Xie Yu and Zhuo Dingfeng saw Jin Rui's fierce opposition and began to guard against him.
In order to increase the prince's guilt, King Yu sent people to create an accidental explosion in a private artillery workshop, blowing up 64 houses, killing 121 people and injuring more than 100 people. The scene was horrific.Mei Chang Su ordered Li Gang to find out whether it was King Yu, and then rushed to the scene of the explosion.At this time, King Jing had already taken out tents and quilts to place the refugees.He sighed and said: Shen Zhui has found out the fact that the prince used the private artillery workshop to make huge profits, and the emperor will give his approval soon.Who would have thought that such an accident would happen! Mei Changsu replied sadly: This is not an accident, it is man-made!
King Jing was angry at King Yu for disregarding human life, and then suspected that this was Mei Changsu's plan.Being misunderstood by her friends made Mei Changsu angry, but unable to argue, Nihuang stood up to defend him.Prince Jing knew that he had wrongly blamed Mei Changsu and apologized to him.At this time, the servant of Prince Jing's palace asked for instructions on what to do with the military resources used to resettle the victims.Prince Jing was about to report to the Ministry of War as required, but was stopped by Mei Changsu.Mei Changsu asked him to deliberately make mistakes and attract the troops to join him, so that the emperor could know that after the explosion of the private artillery room, the prince and Prince Yu only fought for power, while Prince Jing was busy stabilizing the situation and appeasing the people, but remained silent.
Although the Concubine Yue was angry that the prince was greedy for profit, she had to deal with it for him.She asked the prince to find the censor to interfere with him, and then took on all the charges, so that the suspicious Emperor Liang would shift his focus to the party struggle and leave room for handling.Sure enough, although Emperor Liang was furious, he did not abolish the East Palace. He only ordered the prince to move to Guijia Palace for self-examination. During this period, he was not allowed to participate in court affairs.
As expected, the Ministry of War was instructed by the prince to accuse King Jing of misappropriating military funds and failing to report them.Prince Jing admitted his mistake and said he was too busy and forgot about it.Instead of convicting him, Emperor Liang praised him for his decisiveness in dealing with difficulties.
Mei Changsu personally designed, repaired and renovated the Su residence garden.He chose a good day and invited all his friends to visit the garden.King Yu came uninvited with Qin Banrui.During the dinner, Mei Changsu deliberately asked Xiao Jingrui, pretending to be concerned about Zhuo Qingyao's condition, which aroused Xia Dong's suspicion.After thirty years of drinking, the atmosphere was warm.Mei Changsu proposed to play a game: last night he hid the bamboo slips and music score - Guangling San - in the garden, and whoever found it first would give it to him.Xia Chun is a music fanatic, and Yujin is eager to try it. Several groups of people quickly spread out in the garden to search for it.Mei Changsu saw that Qin Banruo wanted to look for him but restrained himself, and took the initiative to suggest that she also go into the garden to look for him.
