The rumor of the Heavenly Stone's crime will take at least half a month to spread back to the temple, and any sooner will be unbelievable, but the Emperor will need Qiaosong to give the results of his observation and divination in two days.
If Lord Qin's conclusions are overturned, what consequences the holy wrath will lead to, no one can predict.
Many officials in the court know that Lord Qin is the party of the Grand Prince, and if the Grand Prince intercedes, it will not be able to get away with it.
A group of the Grand Prince's party, including the Chief Minister, sent letters through various secret channels within two days, requesting the Grand Prince not to intervene.
The officials were not aware that Lord Qin was instructed by the Grand Prince, nor could they think of a reason for the Grand Prince's sudden opposition to the construction of the Shu Road, but if the Grand Prince interceded, the Emperor's suspicions would surely spread to the Grand Prince's head.
Qin Zhaoxuan himself didn't want the Grand Imperial Prince to step in to protect himself.
When the Grand Prince told him the reason for not repairing the Shu Road, he simply couldn't agree.
Even if this matter was really serious enough to cause a small-scale public grievance, the Grand Prince should not have intervened.
Sooner or later, Shu Road should be repaired, only can not be repaired in such a hurry, the emperor does not touch this wall, do not know the power, it would be better to let nature take its course and let him repair.
It wouldn't be worth it for the Grand Prince to offend the Emperor over this.
Qin Zhaoxuan is a good official, and he also cares about the people, but his idea is to look at the big picture.
The people are suffering from the project, just for a while, if the eldest prince offended the emperor, so that Tong Fei have the opportunity to make trouble from, then the people's future suffering can be a lifetime.
The Grand Prince, though still young, never let the officials down.
Qin Zhaoxuan didn't understand why he was determined to dissuade the emperor this time, and in order to keep the Grand Prince out of the way, he could only dribble into the muddy water.
Has done the worst, a court cane to beat the crippled and disabled may be, but the emperor is not likely to kill him.
For one thing, he was a priesthood official of the Chintian Supervisory Authority, and for another, there was this taboo against killing for a project before a big one.
Just as if it was for the sake of the people to preserve the future bright ruler, Qin Zhaoxuan calmly waited at home to be tortured, completely cutting off communication with the Grand Prince.

The Grand Prince was sitting on pins and needles in the Eastern Palace.
The late summer evening is not too hot, the temple's ice kan is open, but the beads of sweat on his forehead are still constantly crossing his cheeks and nose tip, the usual refreshing dark vermilion black striped regular clothes, his back is wet with sweat.
The palace maids waved bushels of fans for their master with all their might, not realizing that at this moment, the Grand Imperial Prince's hands and feet were cold.
Qiao Song should be reporting the observation results to the Emperor at this moment.
Although this person is not the party of the great prince, but there is no other backstage, as a matter of fact, do not dare to offend Qin Zhaoxuan.
Qiao Song gave the observation results certainly do not dare to defy the holy will, how to say the words round, both sides do not offend, it depends on the ability of Qiao Song.
The Grand Prince was afraid that he was incapable of doing so and was only concerned with his father's end.
The sun is gradually hidden in the west mountain, the palace lights one after another, finally a eunuch quietly pushed the door in to report, the report of Qiao Song's report word for word to the great prince said.
Once the Grand Emperor closed his eyes, he slowly made it to the coffee table and took a deep breath.
Pretty much as expected.
Qiao Song said that his initial divination results were the same as Lord Qin's, and then he happened to discover that during the stay of the Fluorescent Star, one star was missing from the Lianzhu Orbit, which showed that there was an omission in the results of the divination test.
Conclusion: This astrological sign is not a great evil, Lord Qin may have misread it for a moment, and the Shu Road can be repaired.
To say so, one is to give Lord Qin's "mistake" to find an excuse, implying that he is not instructed, and secondly, can also cater to the emperor's meaning, also can not be offended at both ends.
Qiao Song set himself aside, only expecting the emperor not to hold Qin Zhaoxuan responsible.
However, the next day at three o'clock, the spies reported: the emperor took Qin Zhaoxuan, led the court cane twenty.
Before Lord Qin was escorted to the Noon Gate, what all the officials prayed wouldn't happen, still happened - the Grand Prince went to the Palace of Nurturing Heart to plead for mercy for Qin Zhaoxuan.
Prince pretended to hear only Qin Zhaoxuan discourage the repair of the Shu Road, the reason for pleading for mercy is that "before the construction should not be caned to blame the Divine Magistrate of the Qin Heavenly Supervision".
The Emperor hadn't said anything, and when his eldest son had finished, he raised his head, his eagle-like sharp gaze slanting at the eldest prince, and let out a cold laugh.
The fine sweat on the corner of the Grand Prince's forehead slowly slid down, but his face remained calm and self-conscious, his eyes downcast and nodding.
"Jinan ah, I always hear Chongshan say that you are excessively harsh on him." The emperor said the third prince's private complaint as a joke: "But I think you're right to manage, that kid should be managed, to be managed properly, you, as a big brother, should have the appearance of a big brother."
"Thank you, Father Emperor, for your understanding." The Grand Imperial Prince arched his hand in response.
"Now, is not because of my connivance, you kid this tube heaven and earth heart, more and more wild up? Heh, the son tube old son ......" the emperor sat back behind the dragon case, right hand clenched fist pressed on the zhengzuo, picking eyes a stare at the big prince, low and ruthless said: "Against the sky."
The eldest prince lifted the hem of his coat and knelt down, "Father rest his anger! My son is just worried about the taboo being committed before the project, and the word will spread out that it will disrupt the order of the Ministry of Works!"

Xue Yao fed the last box of Wanted yesterday, and this is really the end of the mountain.
The old father couldn't face the bright expectant gaze of the little chubby cub.
He had thought before that when Wanted was finished, he would go buy milk himself and mix it with cane sugar, and even though there was a difference in taste, he could barely muddle through.
But yesterday evening to go to the market around, only to find that the people of the capital city rarely have the habit of drinking milk, everyone is tea-based, the general market simply can not buy milk, drink the family are not sold to the public.
The palace does have cows that specialize in milk production, but that's not often used.
Ancient royalty drank human milk, thinking it was more nutritious than cow's milk, and specialized in milk producers, more than cows.
No wonder the little chubby boy likes drinking Wantz so much. The milk flavor of human milk is lighter than cow's milk, and even if it is blended with sugar, it is still far inferior to the taste of Wantz.
Xue Yao refreshed the mall three times a day, but he never saw Wang Zai on the shelves again.
The only other time I came across milk was when I cashed in a serving of Monk's Sour Milk because it was a good deal and a better value.
As a result, the seventh prince was not used to the flavor of yogurt, and after sipping a mouthful, he turned away from his bun face and refused to drink it, so Xue Yao could only keep it for himself.
At this moment, Xue Yao was in front of the food mall, ready to finish tapping the last refresh opportunity.
Put your hands together and say "Wanted Milk" three times, reach out and point--
Still no Wanted milk!
Xue Yao was frustrated.
Looking up and tapping the food secondary mall, the interface popped up again with the opening requirements, which were 150 whitewash points and a main quest to open the second chakra.
Desperate.
Xue Yao glanced blearily at the whitewash point balance in the lower right corner: 47.
Can't help but let out a poverty-stricken sigh.
Just then, an alarm suddenly blew up in the mental space!
[System tip: The host interfered with the plot line, causing the decent official Qin Zhaoxuan to be injured, according to the level of injury and the proportion of responsibility, deducting the host's whitewashing points by 12, please continue to work hard.]
Xue Yao: "????"
Who's hurt? Qin what? He doesn't recognize it at all! What kind of broken system is this!
Low and behold, 35 whitewash points left.
Xue Yao's heart ached so much that he couldn't breathe, and he hadn't spent more than ten huge points in so many days of frugality.
It took half a day to calm down, on second thought, this unheard of officer was injured, it couldn't be that something happened at the Grand Prince's place, right?
Xue Yao wasn't in the mood for shopping at the mall anymore, and waited worriedly until the next day, intending to go to the Green Vault Temple after school to ask for news.
It turned out to be bad news in the schoolhouse.
The Fifth Prince said that his elder brother was grounded by his father yesterday and was not allowed to go out for a month.
The Grand Prince was chastised by the Emperor like no other in history.
Xue Yao's heart went cold, eager to understand the situation, he could only get words out of the Fifth Prince's mouth.
Where does a nine year old child know exactly what happened, after all is said and done, the fifth prince only knows that his father has been in a bad mood lately.
The three young emperors were all afraid of their father and sat in rows to study why his father's dragon face was displeased.
The Fifth Prince said, "The day before yesterday, the master selected several copies of the words that our brothers and sisters had proclaimed, and gave them to Father to have a look, could Father be thinking that our words are too ugly?"
The Sixth Prince shrunk his head sheepishly, "Fifth Brother writes extremely well, but I'm far from it, I must have made Father unhappy."
The Fifth Prince turned his head and patted the Sixth Brother's shoulder, "Your writing has improved quite a bit from last month, it must not be because of you."
The Seventh Prince lifted his little fat hand, patting Sixth Brother as his older brother had done, and giving a judgment filled with personal grudges, "It's Third Brother."
Xue Yao: "......"
The one with the worst handwriting is you yourself, Your Highness!
You wake up fat boy!
Several young emperors were not interested in playing around, they all sat in the gazebo talking about their father.
There were very few things that the Seventh Prince could interject himself into, so he was taken by Xue Yao to catch butterflies in the small garden for a while.
While cooling off at the stone table under the tree, Xue Yao started poking the little chubby cub's little belly again.
He's been poking and prodding relentlessly for two days now.
In the original, the Seventh Prince was kicked half an inch below the umbilicus after opening up the Ren and Dudu Chakras, and Xue Yao poked at the same position, but didn't dare to push too hard.
The little chubby cub was usually accustomed to being pinched all over his body, and didn't notice any abnormalities in Silly Yao Yao's demeanor.
His Highness was so focused on nibbling on the milk puffs that he cold dry-heaved and spit milk bubbles out of his mouth.
Xue Yao hurriedly retracted his sinful claws and pulled out a handkerchief to wipe the little fat cub's mouth.
"Is everything alright your highness?"
The seventh prince looked up at him with a blank face, his left hand scratched the small belly that was poked and itched, and afterward suddenly became unhappy, stomped his little chubby legs, tilted his head to indicate that Silly Yao Yao pinched his own face, don't pinch the belly, it's hard!
After that, if he tapped his belly again, the little chubby cub would let out a warning little whine, and Xue Yao could only stop.
But the situation of him poking and spitting on the seventh prince has been caught by the little eunuch who secretly followed and went back to tell the prince's personal grand palace maid.
The big palace maid dared to be angry and dared not say anything, their little prince is different from other babies, once upon a time they don't really recognize people, except for Princess Shih, and no one is close to them, and I don't know what kind of ecstasy has been fed to this little companion, and every day they are willing to nestle in one place with him.
A few days ago, Xue Yao took a leave of absence, and the young prince lost his temper a few times in four days.
Weekdays is originally a milk on the good behavior, those days on the contrary, a drink of milk to remember Xue Yao, stomping the little fat legs, want them to "give the master to take out", that is, to hand over the palace maids that little companion readers.
One day, His Highness actually ran out of sight and was later assisted back by Xue Yao, which is really evil.
After listening to the little eunuch talk about Xue Yao's odd behavior of poking the little prince's stomach, the palace maid was a bit suspicious and had to go back and report to Yi Qiu.
In the evening Xue Yao accompanied the little fat cub back to the Green Dome Hall, the Shi Fei is no longer in the hall, the palace maid told him to come back another day.
Usually Shi Fei is not he can sit in the flower hall and wait, Xue Yao suspected that this court lady deliberately make things difficult, but there is no way to get out of the palace at this time will not be able to get in, can only be cheeky to rely on not to go.
But the palace maid never had a good face, so Xue Yao could only toughen up his attitude, bragging that it was His Highness the Seventh Prince who wanted to tell him a story in the evening, and had specially ordered him to stay in the Green Vault Hall.
The courtesan's face was suddenly startled, and she bowed her head in a crouching salute.
Xue Yao thought she was saluting herself, and in his afterglow, he noticed that the palace maids in the room were all bowing their heads toward the door, and only then did he turn around to look-
The Seventh Prince stood in the doorway holding a muppet, staring at him with a puzzled expression.
Xue Yao: "......"
It was over, and the little chubby cub didn't want a story read to him at night!
"What brings Your Highness here?" Xue Yao looked embarrassed.
The Grand Palace Maiden had already greeted the young prince one step ahead of her, deliberately condescending to him, "Your Highness is going to tell Second Prince Xue a story at night?"
The Seventh Prince tilted his head to look at Xue Yao and suddenly tilted his little mouth, revealing a smug, bad smile.
Silly Yao Yao really wanted His Highness to tell a story!
Xue Yao was tense, not knowing what this little fat cub was badmouthing ......
"Yao Yao." The Seventh Prince snapped.
"Huh?" Xue Yao was very vain.
"You and Milk wait obediently." The Seventh Prince condescendingly accepted Silly Yao Yao's demand, "Master speaks, you listen."
Xue Yao: "......"
He didn't say he was going to take the milk with him for the story ah hello!
Wake up, fatso!
The milk is all gone for you!
