Chapter 321 The letter of surrender that year

"Your Majesty? Your Majesty?"

Emperor Yong felt vaguely that someone was calling him. He slowly opened his eyes, and what he saw was Huang Pei's face full of tears.

"Huang Pei?"

"Your Majesty!"

Huang Pei shouted and cried with joy.

Emperor Yong was in a daze, and when he looked up and saw the familiar bed curtains, he realized that he had returned to the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart.

"How did I come back?" Emperor Yong asked in a hoarse voice.

As soon as he talked about this, Huang Pei's tears rolled down instantly.

As the Grand Duke next to the Holy Emperor, his current behavior was really against the rules, but he was so afraid that he was trembling all over!

He returned to the palace from Huguo Temple to answer his orders, but when he returned to the Yangxin Hall, he did not see the Holy One. The guard at the door said that the Holy One had gone to the imperial prison.

When he heard this, his heart skipped a beat.

The Holy Spirit must have gone to jail to interrogate Jinzhu at this time.

However, the Holy Emperor's dragon body is not in good condition now, and the reason has not yet been found out. He really can't bear any stimulation.

When he hurried to the imperial prison, he found that all the guards were guarding outside. When he asked, it turned out that the Holy Emperor wanted to conduct a secret trial and no one was allowed to observe.

He asked again how long it had been since the Holy Spirit entered the house, and the guard replied that it had been at least two-quarters of an hour.

He suddenly felt something bad in his heart and boldly shouted a few words of "Holy Lord" at the door of the interrogation room, but the only response was Jin Zhu's ferocious laughter.

He suddenly panicked, pushed the door open and went in, only to see the Holy Lord lying on the ground, with a pool of blackened blood in front of him!

His legs softened almost instantly, and he shouted "Holy Majesty" in his mouth, feeling that half of the sky had collapsed!

When Jinzhu saw them coming in, his expression was distorted and he couldn't stop laughing.

"Hahaha, the Dog Emperor is going to die. He is reaping the consequences. He deserves it! He deserves it haha!"

When Huang Pei relayed all this to Emperor Yong, Emperor Yong's eyes were dull and he nodded slightly.

Huang Pei wiped the tears from his face, and then Emperor Yong's voice floated over.

"Is everything destroyed?"

Huang Pei was stunned for a moment, then nodded quickly, "Your Majesty, they were all destroyed. My servant burned them myself."

Emperor Yong nodded again when he heard the words and lay quietly on the couch without saying a word.

Huang Pei couldn't stand it anymore, so he suddenly took a few steps back, knelt beside the couch and kowtowed heavily, not daring to stop.

"Your Majesty, I beg you, I beg you. Please call the imperial doctor to take a look! I beg you, Your Majesty!"

Emperor Yong turned his head and saw Huang Pei's red forehead at a glance.

After all...it's still Huang Pei...

"Stop knocking and declare."

When Huang Pei heard these words, his heart finally dropped to the ground, and he staggered out and ran out, shouting: "Xuan Yuyi!"

After Zou Qi left Beijing, the left and right hospital judges took charge of the imperial hospital. Their medical skills were only inferior to Zou Qi's, and they were also very good.

Huang Pei led the two of them to the couch, and Emperor Yong reached out his hand in a very cooperative manner. After taking turns to take his pulse, the judges on the left and right discussed in a low voice.

Upon seeing this, Huang Pei hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "How is it?"

The two court judges knelt in front of the couch, looked at each other and nodded at the same time, and then the left court judge spoke:

"The Holy One is in his prime, his body is healthy, his pulse is stringy and long, but there are signs of stagnation of Qi and sluggish emotions."

"We should focus on soothing the liver and regulating qi. Once the qi is relaxed, we can then regulate our mind and we should be fine."

Huang Pei felt anxious when he heard this.

The Holy One has vomited blood several times, and his right hand can't stop shaking. How could it be just depression?

"Two court judges--"

"That's it, step back."

Emperor Yong's slightly lazy voice cut off Huang Pei's words.

After hearing this, the two court judges respectfully stepped back, but Huang Pei was so anxious that he could not sit still.

quack! He is indeed a quack!

"Your Majesty, it's better to summon Dr. Zou back to Beijing urgently!"

Emperor Yong slowly retracted his arm. At this time, it seemed that the emperor was not in a hurry and the eunuch was in a hurry.

"Huang Pei, you are confused. I sent someone to summon Qiao Zhongguo the day before yesterday, asking him to take his second son back to Beijing quickly. Zou Qi naturally came back with him."

Huang Pei thought of Dr. Zou's old bones. If he were allowed to travel day and night, he would probably die of exhaustion before he even entered the capital.

But he was still worried in his heart. The Holy Dragon Body was a big deal!

At this time, Emperor Yong suddenly sat up.

Upon seeing this, Huang Pei hurriedly came to help him, but Emperor Yong suddenly grabbed his wrist.

Huang Pei raised his head and met Emperor Yong's dark eyes, and couldn't help but feel shocked.

"Your Majesty?"

Emperor Yong's voice was low and he said with a stern face: "Huang Pei, you are the only one who dares to tell me the truth. Tell me, have I changed?"

Huang Pei couldn't hide his panic and asked uneasily: "Your Majesty, what do you mean?"

Emperor Yong let go of Huang Pei's hand and leaned on the pillow with a calm expression.

"Huang Pei, tell me, where have I changed in the past ten years? And when did I start to change? Tell me everything."

"Don't worry, I told you to say that. I won't take your head."

Huang Pei really couldn't figure out Emperor Yong's thoughts now, but he was 100% obedient to Emperor Yong. In fact, there were some things he wanted to say for a long time, but now he simply changed his mind.

"Your Majesty, you have changed."

"From my perspective, you have changed since you received the surrender letter and portrait written by the Jade Concubine."

Everyone thought that the letter of surrender from the Northern Kingdom was sent when General Qiao arrived at the capital of the Northern Kingdom.

Not really.

The Jade Concubine was prepared for a rainy day, and the letter of surrender she wrote in her own hand was even delivered to the desk in the imperial study room earlier than the news of General Qiao's arrival at the city.

The formal letter of surrender issued by King Shang Jincheng, the late king of the Northern Kingdom, was handed over as a last resort after General Qiao had besieged the city for several days and when the Northern Court was really unable to sustain itself.

what does that mean?

This means that General Qiao has only reached the halfway point of his attack, and Concubine Jade has already glimpsed the defeat of the Northern Kingdom in advance.

But the Northern Court will not look back until it hits the southern wall, and will fight to the end.

The Jade Concubine could not persuade her father and brother, so she wrote a surrender letter in her own hand, ceding land to pay compensation, offering her sincerity, and begging the Holy Emperor to withdraw the troops.

At the end of the letter of surrender, it was said that if the Holy One insisted on breaking through the gate of the capital of the Northern Kingdom, as a princess, she should sacrifice herself for the country to maintain her loyalty.

To this day, Huang Pei can still recall the emperor's expression when he saw the letter of surrender and the portrait.

Even as a disabled person, when the portrait was displayed in front of him and he saw the heavenly and human appearance of the Jade Concubine on it, he couldn't help but feel in a trance.

The Holy One walked around the long desk and came closer to the portrait, raised his hand to caress the immortal face, and murmured:

"Such a celestial figure is rare in the world, and even more rare is someone who is brave and resourceful, cautious in making choices, and has the courage of a strong man to cut off his wrist."

"In this case, I really want to meet this Princess Yuliu."

Huang Pei could probably guess a little bit of Emperor Yong's thoughts at that time.

After all, General Qiao is brave and good at fighting, but the Northern Kingdom has long been defeated.

After getting the beauty, if the Northern Kingdom is still dishonest and finds a reason to destroy them, it will be really easy.

But who could have expected that after the Holy Emperor met the Jade Concubine, he would be fascinated and obedient, as if he was a completely different person!

What followed was exclusive pampering, connivance, and even allowing the princess of a foreign country to conceive a dragon heir. In the end, the emperor and the queen were alienated and the prince was weak, creating the chaotic and irreversible situation today!

Young emperor, he is ambitious and arrogant, thinking that he has control over the country and people's hearts, but in the end, he makes mistakes step by step, until everyone betrays his relatives and shakes the country!

Chapter 322 If it's the other way around, so what!

Huang Pei really risked his life this time, recounting every unexpected behavior of Emperor Yong from the time he received the surrender letter and portrait.

He knelt beside the couch, his voice full of respect, but he never flinched in the slightest.

Emperor Yong sat on the couch and listened very carefully.

When he heard that the queen led the concubines to kneel outside the Yangxin Hall for a day and a night, begging him to deliver the child in Concubine Yu's belly, Emperor Yong couldn't help but close his eyes.

His expression fluctuated several times, full of confusion and vague realization.

After Huang Peizhen counted it carefully, he discovered that so many ridiculous things had happened in the past ten years!

The more he talked, the more frightened he became, when Emperor Yong suddenly stood up.

"Your Majesty?"

Huang Pei thought that Emperor Yong couldn't bear to listen.

However, Emperor Yong shook his head and signaled Huang Pei to continue, and he walked barefoot to the jade table.

When Huang Pei saw this, he exclaimed, "Your Majesty!"

Emperor Yong seemed as if he hadn't heard anything, his expression was condensed, and he picked up his pen and started writing.

----

In the evening of that day, Qiao Zhongguo finally received the emperor's order, ordering him to take the second prince back to the capital as soon as possible!

Qiao Zhongguo's spirit suddenly lifted, he was finally here!

He turned his horse around and came to the second prince's carriage, asking the envoy to repeat Emperor Yong's will.

The second prince opened the curtain, his face was still pale, but his expression was extremely calm.

"Since it is my father's wish, I would like to ask General Qiao not to worry about this palace and just return to the capital at full speed."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Zhongguo respectfully accepted the order, but when he left, his eyes couldn't help but focus on the second prince's face.

The second prince noticed Qiao Zhongguo's gaze, raised his head and smiled faintly at Qiao Zhongguo, and then lowered the car curtain.

When Qiao Zhongguo saw this, he murmured in his heart.

This second prince is really amazing. He must already know what is waiting for him in the capital, but he still remains calm.

In the past few days, many attendants came and went in front of the second prince.

Qiao Zhongguo knew what the second prince's plan was, but as a minister, he had no reason not to allow the prince to see his attendants.

Fortunately, he had already sent the news of Uncle Zhou's visit back to the capital. I think Boss and Jiaojiao had an idea.

Qiao Diyi came back last night. He was ordered to intercept Uncle Zhou on the way, but he failed as expected.

Without him, the number of people who escorted Uncle Zhou along the way was far beyond imagination. It really fulfilled Qiao Zhongguo's previous guess that there were people from the second prince along the way!

Qiao Zhongguo came to the front of the team and said a few words in a deep voice. Then the slow motorcade suddenly accelerated and rushed to Beijing as quickly as possible!

The storm is really coming!

----

The next day, Qiao Tianjing visited Duke Dingguo's mansion with Qiao Jiaojiao in his arms. The reason was that the silly second son who was out there had given him a letter from his master!

Duke Dingguo's palace has been very busy recently. Although the ceremony and ceremony of the prince's wedding were all held in the palace, the princess's family was not at all vague about it.

Although the specifications of the Crown Princess's dowry were all made in the old style, Mrs. Xiao was still very nervous, comparing them several times, and was so busy that she couldn't even touch the ground.

When Qiao Tianjing arrived, he was personally received by Xiao Hongda, Duke of Dingguo.

The two sides exchanged some polite words, and Qiao Tianjing winked. Xiao Hongda understood and led Qiao Tianjing into the back room.

"Dalang, what message did your father send back? This is an inner room. There are people guarding it all around, so there will be no worries. You just say it's okay."

Qiao Tianjing first put Qiao Jiaojiao down, and then with a "boom", he knelt down directly to Xiao Hongda!

Xiao Hongda was startled and hurriedly leaned over to help him.

"Da Lang, what are you doing!"

Qiao Tianjing did not stand up. He raised his head and said sincerely:

"Uncle Xiao, my father has said in front of Dalang several times that he and you are as close as brothers. You are the second father to me, Erlang and Jiaojiao."

"Dalang acted presumptuously today because he wanted to ask Uncle Xiao to save our Qiao family!"

Xiao Hongda's expression changed drastically after hearing these words.

"Although the situation in the DPRK and China is not very clear now, how can it shake the Qiao family? Da Lang, did something unexpected happen to your father? Tell Uncle Xiao quickly!"

Qiao Tianjing came here with great determination.

Dad always said that Uncle Xiao was his brother with a different surname, and neither of them would hesitate to trade their lives.

Now that the second prince is about to return to the capital, Qiao Tianjing must also speed up his pace!

He raised his head and spoke solemnly of everything that had happened recently, including the "truth" about the second prince's life experience and the possible portrait plan!

"Uncle Xiao, this is the truth. Da Lang came here firstly because he wanted to discuss the portrait with Uncle Xiao, and secondly..."

Qiao Tianjing hesitated a little, but before he could say anything, Xiao Hongda raised his hand and touched the top of his head.

Qiao Jiaojiao was originally just quietly acting as a backdrop, but now, when she looked up and saw the look of relief and sigh on Xiao Hongda's face, she knew that she and her eldest brother had come to the right place!

[As expected of Uncle Xiao, Uncle Xiao has already seen clearly what my eldest brother has left unfinished. 】

"Da Lang, Lao Qiao is lucky to have you as his son!"

Xiao Hongda murmured, looking at Qiao Tianjing with particularly gentle eyes.

"Get up quickly. Uncle Xiao already understands your hard work."

Xiao Hongda took Qiao Tianjing's hand and exerted slight force. Qiao Tianjing did not dare to be rude and stood up in a hurry.

He felt grateful in his heart and wanted to bow to Xiao Hongda again, but this time he was stopped by Xiao Hongda.

"Da Lang, your concerns are right."

"Your Highness... Your Highness is kind and generous, and I am respectful and happy in my heart. However, if we don't take precautions, more than ten years later, the fear of the Holy One may still happen to Your Highness again."

"This is-the king's heart is unpredictable."

Speaking of this, Xiao Hongda's face was full of emotion.

"Qianlan becomes the Crown Princess, and the Xiao family and His Highness are completely tied together. Whether in the eyes of His Highness or in the eyes of everyone in the world, Uncle Xiao's heart will naturally be devoted to His Highness, and there is no doubt about it."

"But your Qiao family is different..."

Having said this, Xiao Hongda patted Qiao Tianjing's shoulder heavily.

"Don't worry, Da Lang, Uncle Xiao will take the lead in this matter!"

When Qiao Tianjing heard this, he couldn't express his gratitude.

"Uncle Xiao, the complexity of this matter is far beyond imagination. Perhaps under the circumstances of that day, we had to risk the world's disapproval--"

Xiao Hongda raised his hand to stop Qiao Tianjing from talking anymore.

His handsome and mature face is full of understanding, and he still has the iron blood and fortitude developed on the battlefield.

"Dalang, being able to fight without losing blood is naturally the best."

"But if we really can't do anything, whether it's for the sake of my Xiao family, for the ambitions of Lao Qiao and I, or for the sake of all the people in this world -"

"Forced to have a baby, so what? If it's the other way around, so what!"

"No matter what, this world of Great Yong cannot fall into the hands of the thieves from the North!"

【hiss--】

Qiao Jiaojiao looked at Xiao Hongda's tall figure. At this moment, her scalp was numb and her blood was boiling with excitement from these words!

Chapter 323 Everyone is here

Xiao Hongda's courage and love for justice far exceeded the imagination of Qiao Tianjing and Qiao Jiaojiao. This visit to Dingguo Duke's Mansion can be said to be extremely smooth.

Now that everything is said and done, we can start the precise layout!

"Uncle Xiao, that portrait--"

Qiao Tianjing only opened his mouth, and Xiao Hongda took over naturally.

"Let's just go with the flow, otherwise I have no reason to enter the palace that day."

【hiss--】

Qiao Jiaojiao's eyes widened.

My scalp is numb again!

It's so easy to talk to smart people! Open your mouth and he can see the words coming out of your throat!

[Now that everything has been sent from the head, even if Uncle Zhou doesn't stuff the portrait into Duke Dingguo's mansion, we have to come out on time, hehe...]

Xiao Hongda thought for a while and then said: "Da Lang, we need to clear this matter up with His Highness and the Queen. Only then can we all work together to make it final!"

Qiao Tianjing nodded happily, "It turned out that I reported it to His Highness after I got Uncle Xiao's approval."

The two discussed some more details, and Qiao Tianjing stood up and left.

Before leaving the house, Qiao Tianjing thought for a moment, then pulled Qiao Jiaojiao and kneeled solemnly to Xiao Hongda.

"Uncle Xiao, please don't refuse. Please accept Da Lang and Jiao Jiao to pay their respects."

Xiao Hongda was willing to come forward, so he took the biggest risk. Even in the imperial study room, he had to be the first person to stand up!

Once it fails, it will be irreversible, and even the reputation in this life will be stained.

Xiao Hongda's lack of hesitation made Qiao Tianjing feel apologetic.

Xiao Hongda couldn't help but feel soft when he saw Qiao Tianjing kowtowing to him upright, and even Qiao Jiaojiao was kneeling in a decent manner.

"You don't have to be like this, Da Lang. The Xiao family and His Royal Highness have already advanced and retreated together. Uncle Xiao will stand out for his own sake."

"On the contrary, your Qiao family has worked hard in every possible way. If it succeeds, this first-class honor will fall on Uncle Xiao."

"Don't you think it's a pity, Dalang?"

Qiao Tianjing looked calm and shook his head.

"Uncle Xiao, Dalang is not doing these things so that the Qiao family can get ahead and become famous."

"Da Lang uses the tactics of a counselor. When necessary, he will not refuse any conspiracy. However, Da Lang always keeps in mind the loyalty taught by his little father."

"If these plans can help the Yong Dynasty get a wise king, allow the people to live in peace, and allow my father's ambition to be rewarded, the prince will not be obsessed with power and position, and will not be greedy for credit. As long as the family is safe, it will be enough."

"Thank you very much, Uncle Xiao, for what Dalang has said. Uncle Xiao is so righteous, and Dalang is in awe of him."

Xiao Hongda couldn't help but be moved when he heard this.

It wasn't until Qiao Tianjing hugged Qiao Jiaojiao and left that Xiao Hongda took a breath of air!

That reckless old man, Lao Qiao, is really smoking from his ancestral grave, and he actually gave birth to such a good son!

Dalang is a boy who is surprisingly upright, he is really like a dragon or a phoenix among men!

Ahhhh!

He was so jealous that he was beyond recognition!

Erlang!

After Erlang came back, he taught him hard, and after he was done, he took him home and became his son-in-law!

With half a son-in-law and Erlang together with that tomboy Qianyue, wouldn't he be able to make a good son?

When the time comes, the young couple will be dragged out to the battlefield to kill the enemy. Thinking about it, he will be so proud!

OK OK!

Ok, deal!

----

Time passed by quickly due to the busy work of several people.

Two days later, Xiao Hongda sent a message to Qiao Tianjing that Uncle Zhou had "succeeded"!

He "extremely accidentally" made a mistake, and Uncle Zhou immediately saw the opportunity and stuffed the portrait into a box.

The box was "specially" marked and will be delivered to the East Palace in the next two days.

Xiao Hongda even thoughtfully made a drawing and asked Qiao Tianjing to copy more of it.

Qiao Tianjing didn't expect that there was a portrait in the envelope, so he opened it in front of Qiao Jiaojiao.

Qiao Jiaojiao:! ! !

【ah! Yu Liu! It's really beautiful! 】

[Back then, everyone said that Yu Zhaoyi looked like Yu Liu, but now when I look at it, it turns out there is still a difference! 】

[The person who looks most like Yu Liu in the world is indeed the second prince! 】

Qiao Tianjing was so frightened that he crumpled the portrait into a ball and held it in his hands!

It's over, my little girl's eyes are dirty!

Qiao Jiaojiao couldn't help but feel a little funny when she saw Qiao Tianjing's nervous look.

[The ancients were conservative after all. In fact, this painting is not explicit. 】

[However, it's hard to imagine what Uncle Zhou's mood was like when he asked people to draw these portraits. Tsk tsk, such a despicable method would probably disgust them first! 】

Seeing that Qiao Jiaojiao didn't pay too much attention, Qiao Tianjing immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

He wants people to drive the portrait out immediately. If the second prince still wants to use this to slander the prince, let him humiliate himself!

----

Two days later, the time came to May 12th, and there were only three days left before the prince's wedding.

And today, Qiao Zhongguo finally took the second prince to the last station outside the capital!

This time Qiao Zhongguo escorted the second prince back to Beijing. He would not return home for a while, but would go directly to the palace to answer his orders.

Therefore, the group should take a short rest at the inn, change their clothes, tidy up their appearance, and prepare to meet the Holy Spirit!

Qiao Tianjing got the message and was waiting here with Qiao Jiaojiao early.

Qiao Jiaojiao couldn't hide her excitement and was looking forward to it all the time.

After waiting for more than an hour, I finally saw a motorcade speeding towards us from a distance. The leader was so tired but still couldn't conceal his majestic and handsome appearance!

Qiao Jiaojiao's eyes turned red and she wanted to speak loudly, but her throat was extremely sore.

She arched forward, and Qiao Tian carefully put her down. Qiao Jiaojiao couldn't help but take a step forward and ran towards the convoy.

"Daddy!"

"Second brother!"

The childish voice was buried under the sound of horse hooves, but Qiao Zhongguo had already seen his little heart!

It's Jiaojiao!

At this moment, all the people on the road who were returning home were comforted and released. Even a fierce man like Qiao Zhongguo couldn't help but have red eyes!

With a kick of his feet, he flew down from the horse, strode forward to meet her, picked up Qiao Jiaojiao, and held her high above his head!

Qiao Jiaojiao almost flew!

Her eyebrows were crescent but her words were choked with sobs, and she shouted happily:

"Daddy! Daddy is back!"

Qiao Zhongguo's heart softened, and he immediately held Qiao Jiaojiao in his arms, his heart screaming non-stop.

Qiao Diyi came from behind. He was darker and thinner, but his cheerful smile did not change at all!

Qiao Jiaojiao immediately shouted: "Second brother! Jiaojiao misses you so much!"

Qiao Diyi opened his arms to welcome him, and embraced Qiao Jiaojiao in Qiao Zhongguo's arms.

"Little sister, second brother misses you so much!"

Qiao Tianjing didn't step forward, but when he saw the three of them hugging each other, he couldn't help but have wet eyes and a gentle face.

At this time, the motorcade approached. The second prince opened the curtain and stepped out of the carriage, his eyes fixed on Qiao Tianjing.

Qiao Tianjing felt something, raised his head, looked at the second prince, and immediately bowed respectfully.

The second prince walked up to Qiao Tianjing, his voice was deep, but there was an unknown smile on his face.

"Dalang, I haven't seen you for a long time. Zhufeng... I appreciate your care."

Qiao Tianjing was not frightened at all, he smiled and shook his head.

"Your Highness, the humble minister is just doing his job at all times."

"Da Lang is here to welcome His Highness back to the capital."

The stage is set up, the actors are all present, and finally - it's time to start!

Chapter 324 Weird Pulse Condition

At this time, Qiao Zhongguo came to the second prince with Qiao Jiaojiao in his arms and reminded him respectfully:

"Your Highness, please change your clothes quickly. I will take you into the palace to see the Holy Emperor immediately."

Upon hearing this, the second prince moved his eyes away from Qiao Tianjing's face and nodded slightly.

Just before entering the inn, he suddenly raised his eyes and looked at the way to the capital.

Before Uncle Zhou left, he specifically made it clear that he could wait for him in the dark after he finished working on the portrait.

Because if the life experience is really exposed, all the old friends of the mother and concubine will be affected, and the father may also be arresting Uncle Zhou.

Uncle Zhou was right not to show up now.

But... based on his understanding of Uncle Zhou, since he couldn't come to pick him up in person, Uncle Zhou would definitely send someone to inform him of the progress of Yi Yiyi's portrait, instead of being like this... no news.

Could it be that even Uncle Zhou...

The second prince frowned, turned around and walked into the inn.

Things have developed to the point where they are today, and it is already a desperate move. Whether it is yes or no, the imperial study room will soon find out!

Qiao Zhongguo also wanted to change into court clothes, so he took Qiao Jiaojiao and Qiao Tianjing into the guest room of the inn.

Qiao Tianjing used every opportunity to find out what was happening, and while Qiao Zhongguo was changing clothes, he told everything about everything that had happened in the capital recently, including his and Jiaojiao's plans.

When he learned that Xiao Hongda had agreed to Qiao Tianjing's request without hesitation, Qiao Zhongguo's belt-tying hand suddenly paused, and then he sighed softly:

"Lao Da, Lao Da, after all, he is my dead brother!"

Hearing this, Qiao Tianjing whispered, "So Dad, just stand behind Uncle Xiao when the time comes. Don't-"

Qiao Zhongguo waved his hands seriously, "No need to say more, dad understands everything."

Let's regard the future predicted by Jiaojiao as the past life. In the previous life, Qiao Zhongguo had a string of loyalty to the end, which ultimately led to the destruction of the Qiao family. This lesson was already too painful.

If he had to do it over again, he would not change his original intention, but he was no longer the foolhardy man!

The three children are all promising. Could it be that he, the father, is holding them back?

Seeing that Qiao Zhongguo seemed to be in a heavy mood, Qiao Jiaojiao quickly came out to liven up the atmosphere.

"Dad, Jiaojiao will also come to the palace. Xiaosi and I are together!"

"If the situation is urgent, just call Daddy and Jiaojiao will be here soon!"

The frost on Qiao Zhongguo's face suddenly melted when he heard this, he hugged Qiao Jiaojiao and rubbed her gently.

"Jiaojiao is a little lucky star. With Jiaojiao here, daddy is full of energy!"

Qiao Diyi couldn't help but feel disappointed when he saw that everyone had made arrangements and he was the only one without a task.

"Brother and little sister, have you forgotten me?"

Hearing this, Qiao Jiaojiao and Qiao Tianjing looked at Qiao Diyi at the same time.

Brother and sister: (─‿─)

Qiao Diyi: (|||❛︵❛.)

Why did he laugh so sinisterly all of a sudden? It made his scalp numb.

Qiao Tianjing stepped forward and patted Qiao Diyi on the shoulder, and said with a meaningful expression: "Second brother, there is something I really have to do with you!"

Qiao Diyi: (*Ő౪Ő*)Wow!

Must he? Is he so important now?

"What's the matter? Brother, tell me quickly!"

Qiao Tianjing hugged Qiao Diyi, and the two brothers murmured in the corner for a long time.

Qiao Tianjing's expression was impeccable, but Qiao Diyi opened his mouth and scratched his head, obviously shocked.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Qiao Zhongguo gently put Qiao Jiaojiao down.

Qiao Jiaojiao took Qiao Zhongguo's hand and said with a smile: "Dad, mother and sister-in-law have already prepared wine and food at home, waiting to welcome you and your second brother!"

"Daddy will definitely get what he wants when he goes here, it's final decision!"

Qiao Zhongguo saw Qiao Jiaojiao's determined expression, smiled and nodded, feeling very confident!

Soon, Qiao Zhongguo took the freshly dressed second prince onto the carriage and headed straight to the capital!

When Qiao Jiaojiao returned to Qiao Mansion, the fourth prince was already waiting here.

"Sister Qiao!"

Qiao Tianjing handed Qiao Jiaojiao to the fourth prince and said earnestly:

"Your Highness, Jiaojiao is entrusted to you. Please take good care of her."

The fourth prince solemnly nodded his promise, and then the two little boys, one tall and one short, hurried to the palace.

Qiao Tianjing watched Qiao Jiaojiao leave with heavy eyebrows and a lot of emotions.

All things are done, now it depends on which side destiny is on!

----

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

Huang Pei stayed by the couch, his eyes now glaring with bruises. It was obvious that he had not slept well in the past few days.

Emperor Yong was lying on the couch and stretched out his wrist. Doctor Zou was kneeling on the ground to diagnose his pulse.

As soon as the motorcade arrived at the inn, Imperial Physician Zou didn't even have time to take a breath before he was dragged into the palace by the imperial guards who had been waiting there.

Unfortunately, Imperial Physician Zou appeared in front of Emperor Yong at such a young age with a disgraced face.

At this time, he lowered his eyes slightly, his eyelids were twitching, and his expression was not good.

Huang Pei was almost worried, but he didn't dare to disturb Doctor Zou, so he pinched the back of his hand in anxiety.

As soon as Zou Qi withdrew his hand, Huang Pei immediately asked quickly: "Mr. Zou, how is your Majesty?"

Emperor Yong slowly sat up and looked down at Dr. Zou.

At this moment, Doctor Zou's heart was already filled with turmoil!

When he felt his pulse for the first time, he only felt that the Holy Spirit had stagnation of Qi.

Considering the second prince's life experience, Imperial Physician Zou still secretly complained in his heart: Which man can still swallow such a sigh of relief after knowing that he has been cuckolded?

These are all minor problems! Just look at it and it will be fine!

He was about to stop, when he suddenly felt something strange, and he felt it carefully.

This feeling was incredible. He actually found that the Holy Master's pulse was intermittently weak, as if his vitality was declining and his blood and vitality were deficient!

But when the pulse weakens to the extreme, it will suddenly strengthen, rapid and powerful, and the cycle goes back and forth, which is extremely weird!

When Huang Pei saw that Doctor Zou looked ugly, he immediately couldn't stand still and hurriedly urged: "Mr. Zou, you are right!"

Zou Qi saluted Emperor Yong on the couch and truthfully reported his findings.

When Huang Pei heard this, his world was spinning.

He knew it! He knew that there must be something serious wrong with the Holy Dragon's body!

Emperor Yong's reaction was unexpectedly calm, and there wasn't even the slightest wave of emotion on his face.

When Zou Qi saw this, he had a ridiculous idea in his heart.

"Your Majesty, do you already know what's going on? In my opinion, this weird pulse condition is really rare. I'm afraid -"

At this time, there was a knock on the door of Yangxin Hall. The father-in-law outside the door had already received the instructions, and now he reported loudly:

"Your Majesty, His Highness the Second Highness and Master Qiao are waiting outside the imperial study."

Emperor Yong frowned slightly when he heard this, lowered his head and asked in a deep voice: "Zou Qi, do you have a way to suppress this pulse condition?"

Zou Qideng immediately showed a confused look on his face, "Your Majesty, medical ethics emphasizes applying the right medicine to the condition. Now that the root cause has not been identified, I dare not--"

"That's all."

Emperor Yong stood up from the couch and interrupted Zou Qi's words.

Huang Pei hurriedly came over to help him change his clothes, but he hesitated several times.

Emperor Yong looked at it with deep eyes and said lightly:

"Huang Pei, don't forget what I told you a few days ago."

Huang Pei was shocked and hurriedly lowered his head in response.

Emperor Yong strode out of the Yangxin Hall and headed straight for the imperial study.

Time to - meet the dick.

Chapter 325 Qiao Zhongguo's delicate heart

When Emperor Yong arrived, he immediately saw the prince, Tan Hanchi, Qiao Zhongguo and the second prince waiting at the door of the imperial study.

His eyes swept over everyone one by one, and when they landed on the second prince, he couldn't move away.

Huang Pei followed beside him and felt that Emperor Yong's footsteps suddenly paused and then accelerated suddenly.

He was confused, but when he raised his head, he saw Emperor Yong walking in front of the second prince.

"See Father, Your Majesty."

"Get up."

Emperor Yong's voice was low and full of majesty.

The second prince noticed the black brocade robe in front of him, and inevitably felt a wave of emotion in his heart.

He stood up slowly, raised his head and looked at Emperor Yong, smiled and whispered: "Father, my son is back."

When Emperor Yong saw this face, he was in a trance.

The moment he saw the second prince, he couldn't help but miss Yu Liu, as if the memories about Yu Liu that had gradually faded during this period suddenly became vivid again.

"Sheng Lang, you will never forget Yu'er, right? Yu'er... Yu'er is so reluctant to leave you."

"Fate is so funny, Sheng Lang. Why am I the princess of an enemy country? Why can't everyone tolerate me..."

"Shenglang, don't blame them, don't blame the queen, the queen... Yu'er understands her, she is doing it for the Yong Dynasty, and for you, Shenglang..."

The scene of Yu Liu's death suddenly flashed through his mind, and Emperor Yong felt heartbroken again.

At this moment, the attachment and renewed love for the Queen began to fade away again.

"Your Majesty, I am reporting to you."

Qiao Zhongguo stood aside and saw Emperor Yong's eyes falling on the second prince's face. He couldn't help being shocked and hurriedly spoke to calm Emperor Yong's mind.

Didn't the Holy One already know the second prince's life experience?

Although it has not been finally verified, isn't this enough to shake the Holy Emperor's love for the second prince?

Emperor Yong was brought back to his attention by Qiao Zhongguo's loud voice. His whole body was slightly shaken, and a clear light flashed in his eyes.

"Come in, everyone."

Emperor Yong strode into the imperial study and immediately looked at the hidden compartments on the wall.

The prince looked calm, without showing any emotion on his face.

The second prince followed behind him. He who was originally doubtful at first relaxed his eyebrows and showed wonder in his eyes.

Mother concubine...

After everyone took their seats, Qiao Zhongguo knelt down in the hall first to plead guilty.

This time the escort was not effective. He had already sent a letter of sin back to see how Emperor Yong would deal with it.

Emperor Yong's face was grave, but he was first concerned about the second prince's injury.

Hearing this, the second prince knelt down beside Qiao Zhongguo, with a hint of sob in his voice, and said sincerely:

"Father, my son's injury has almost healed. This incident happened suddenly. Mr. Qiao cannot be entirely blamed. Father, please give me a lighter punishment."

"I just didn't expect that this trip would be so dangerous. I was afraid...I was afraid that I would not be able to return to the capital and fulfill my filial piety in front of my father!"

As the second prince spoke, his originally pale face looked increasingly weak, his eyes were red, and he kowtowed heavily.

Qiao Zhongguo: (;¬_¬)

Okay, okay, this is how you act, right?

"Holy Lord!"

Qiao Zhongguo suddenly howled violently, shocking everyone!

Huang Pei: "..."

He hadn't slept well in the past few days, and he was still distracted just now. Master Qiao's voice almost scared him away!

Qiao Zhongguo kowtowed and shouted at the top of his lungs:

"The humble minister is also scared, for fear that he will not be able to come back and continue to be loyal in front of the Holy Master after entrusting his life to Papi Ridge!"

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

Emperor Yong: "..."

Is this Qiao Zhongguo crying here?

"Okay, Qiao Aiqing, you didn't do a good job escorting me on this trip, injured your second child, and delayed your marriage journey. You really deserve to be punished."

"Everyone knows about the marriage. Now that something has happened, I can't hide it. I will issue an order in the afternoon to punish you for your inability to escort. Are you convinced?"

After all, Emperor Yong had not forgotten his original plan. It was time for Qiao Zhongguo's reputation among the people to drop.

"As for what Aiqing said about resigning, he just said that he was afraid that he would not be loyal to me. Is this resignation just an excuse made up by Aiqing to get away from guilt?"

Qiao Zhongguo didn't expect that even though he was being clever, he actually contradicted himself.

Fortunately, he was very thick-skinned, and he said without blushing and without a beating heart: "Your Majesty, I did not do my job well and even hurt the second prince. I really have no face to appear in front of your Majesty every day!"

"I cannot be a loyal minister to the Holy One, but I will still do my best to share the Holy One's worries."

"When I returned to the capital this time, I heard about the horrific incident of protecting the country at the inn. I was really heartbroken! There are so many children and teenagers, can they only live in ignorance all their lives?"

Speaking of this, Qiao Zhongguo's eyes really turned red.

"Your Majesty, I can't help but think in my heart, if I can't show my ambition in the court, I should do something to correct these young people."

"The above are all my words from the bottom of my heart, and there is absolutely no false sentiment!"

When the prince heard this, he couldn't help but feel the same way as Qiao Zhongguo.

That day, he followed Huang Pei to Huguo Temple. Before leaving, he made a special trip to see those young people.

Their eyes were dull and lifeless, and their bodies were covered in scars. They really looked like zombies, but the children were full of hatred for them and were always on guard, waiting for an opportunity to escape.

When he saw these pictures, his heart felt like a knife!

Mr. Qiao has great righteousness in his heart, and he is able to bring out this matter so appropriately. He is really kind-hearted!

Emperor Yong indeed sighed.

At this time, the prince took the initiative to stand up and said in a gentle voice: "Father, the people's anger over this matter has not stopped. We should investigate it thoroughly and root out this group of thieves!"

Having said this, the prince turned to look at the second prince, "Second brother, it's not that the emperor is targeting you intentionally. The person behind this plot is an old friend of the Jade Concubine. I wonder...have they looked for you?"

The second prince knew that this matter would become one of the causes of trouble, and had already thought of countermeasures on the way. At this time, he looked disgusted.

"Brother Emperor, you have a benevolent heart and your ambition is for the common people. How can my second brother judge the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain?"

"My second brother has also heard about this incident. It is really shocking! But while my second brother is heartbroken, he feels even more sad and angry."

"The mother-in-law came alone to get married, so that the two countries can have a good relationship! The mother-in-law has a great heart. Even Uncle Zhou said that the mother-in-law always taught them to be kind to others and not to harbor hatred."

"Who would have thought that they would actually ignore the last wishes of their mother and concubine and do such an unscrupulous thing!"

Having said this, the second prince bowed his hands to Emperor Yong and said righteously:

"Father, I have never seen those masterminds. I implore my father to call them here now. I want to question them face to face!"

When he returned to the capital this time, everyone showed a calm expression on his face. He was still not sure whether his identity had been exposed!

In particular, there has been no news from Liuyun for a long time. I don't know whether it is because there is no movement in the palace, or because the entire Chonghua Palace is under control.

Therefore, he simply went with the flow and called Aunt Rou out for a meeting. With just a few clues, he could make a judgment!

If this time it was just about the Hokoku Temple, he would have many ways to get out unscathed, and there would be no need to risk everything and show his trump card!

Chapter 326 Fighting with Yu Liu behind the second prince

Emperor Yong did not refuse.

He seemed to have become that "good father" again, who was extremely forgiving and indulgent to the second prince.

Soon, the sound of clanging iron chains was heard, and everyone turned around to see an embarrassed woman with her head hanging down, being dragged into the royal study room by two guards.

As soon as the guard let go, the woman lay softly on the ground.

She couldn't help but let out a muffled groan, and suddenly raised her head to look at the dragon chair. A cold light of hatred burst out from her eyebrows. It was Jin Zhu!

"Emperor Dog! Why aren't you dead yet?"

"Insolent!" Huang Pei immediately shouted to stop.

At this time, a purple figure stood in front of Jinzhu.

Jin Zhu immediately took a sip of saliva and looked up at the person with a sinister smile.

However, when her eyes touched the second prince's face, her whole body trembled and she suddenly froze.

"Princess...Princess..."

At this moment, Jin Zhu almost thought that he had returned to the original time and met the young princess.

Jin Zhu couldn't help but wet her eyes, and her tears couldn't stop flowing down.

She knew that the princess had long since passed away, and the only person in the world who looked so similar to the princess was His Highness.

Jin Zhu had never met the second prince. She and Aunt Rou had been hiding in Huguo Temple. When they took the initiative to contact Uncle Zhou, for the sake of caution, only Aunt Rou came forward.

Jin Zhu relied on her loyalty to Yu Liu to do her best behind the scenes.

"Your Highness..."

Jin Zhu murmured something, and suddenly remembered that she had spit on the second prince just now, and immediately turned pale as if she had made a huge mistake.

She stretched out her hand to wipe it for the second prince, but as soon as she raised her hand, the second prince took a step back.

Jin Zhu was startled at first, and then suddenly realized that her next performance was related to whether His Highness could escape the crime, so he must not be careless!

At this time, the second prince also felt shocked.

The captured mastermind was not Aunt Rou!

The second prince only met Aunt Rou once, and she was much older than the woman in front of him.

And this woman should be the Jinzhu mentioned by Aunt Rou!

What about Aunt Rou?

Could it be that Aunt Rou escaped? Or committed suicide?

So has his life experience been exposed?

The second prince frowned slightly and couldn't figure it out for a while.

It seems that the only thing I can do is ask the golden beads in front of me!

"Who are you?" the second prince asked coldly.

When Jin Zhu saw the second prince's attitude, he immediately understood the second prince's plan.

Your Highness is right to do this, and you should cut off your relationship with her now!

But she couldn't act too indifferent, otherwise she would be suspected of deliberately trying to take out His Highness.

It was revealed naturally, mixed with half truth and falsehood, and it will surely make His Highness sit back and relax.

Thinking of this, Jin Zhu's face showed joy and emotion, and she spoke loudly:

"Your Highness, Your Highness, you have grown so big. This slave is Jinzhu, the eldest maid beside the princess!"

"When you were born, my slave even touched your hand!"

As soon as Jin Zhu opened her mouth, she had just the right measure, and the second prince knew that she was a smart person.

Sure enough, all the people left behind by the mother-in-law must be used!

"Jinzhu? I seem to have heard Uncle Zhou mention it."

The second prince tilted his head, pretending to be surprised, but soon he looked angry.

"Since you are the eldest maid beside my mother-in-law, you should understand my mother-in-law's thoughts. Why did you go against my mother-in-law's last wish and stay in Huguo Temple to kill the children?"

"Are you the only person taking the lead in this matter, or is there another mastermind!"

Jin Zhu's expression changed slightly when he heard this. Is Your Highness asking Aunt Rou?

When mentioning Aunt Rou, Jin Zhu was also confused.

At that time, most of the people in the hall were affected. She and Aunt Rou escaped from the disaster by not having a meal because they were talking to that bald donkey Yuanyou.

A sudden change occurred, and she and Aunt Rou knew that something was not good, so they simply decided to let her contain the possible enemies here, while Aunt Rou went to kill all those children!

It doesn't matter if they are cruel or ruthless, if one more person dies in the Yong Kingdom, they will have one less enemy in the Northern Kingdom!

As a result, no news about Aunt Rou was heard until she was captured.

When she was brought into the palace this time, everyone seemed to regard her as the mastermind. She suspected that Aunt Rou might have escaped!

After all, if Aunt Rou committed suicide, she should be mentioned.

Thinking of this, Jin Zhu was extremely pleasantly surprised. As long as Aunt Rou was alive, she would be a great help to His Highness!

Therefore, when Huang Pei and Emperor Yong came to question him one after another, she both bit her to death that the mastermind was herself!

Now it seems that His Highness also wants to know about Aunt Rou.

Jinzhu thought for a while and cryptically hid the answer in his answer.

"Your Highness, this slave wants to avenge the princess! The original sin of all this is the dog emperor. The princess was so young, how unjust her death was!"

"This slave is not willing to give in!"

"So when everyone decided to return to their homeland, I didn't want to leave! Even if I risked my life, I would tear off a piece of the Dog Emperor's flesh!"

The second prince felt enlightened when he heard this.

So, Aunt Rou escaped?

It seems that Jin Zhu did not reveal his life experience, otherwise he should have mentioned it in his words just now.

So, his life experience is not known to others?

The second prince's mind was racing, and he refused to miss any flaw or possibility.

It was either the imperial brother or the Qiao family who destroyed the farm. After several confrontations, he felt that the Qiao family was more powerful.

Assuming that it was the Qiao family who rushed into the farm, would there be any reason for the Qiao family to hide Aunt Rou?

The second prince had doubts in his mind and did not dare to relax.

That trump card can only be used once, and it must be killed with one strike, otherwise he will have no chance of turning around!

"Stupid! I would never have imagined that there would be a villain like you beside my mother-in-law!"

"You are evil-hearted and your crimes cannot be punished. You should atone for the sins of those children who died!"

Jinzhu was determined to die, but now if he could remove the princess and His Highness, he would feel that his death was a worthy one, so he had no resentment in his heart.

"Your Highness! You...you..."

Jinzhu trembled, his face full of disbelief, and then cried loudly:

"Princess, princess, only this slave will remember your grievances, only this slave will remember you!"

When Qiao Zhongguo saw this, he was secretly amazed.

Sometimes even he couldn't help but marvel that the Qiao family was not only fighting against the second prince, but also against Yu Liu who was behind the second prince!

Even a maid next to Yu Liu had such courage and courage, and her speech was impeccable!

No wonder he had already arrived at the city and was tricked by Yu Liu. Her plan was really terrifying!

The biggest gain from destroying the Huguo Temple den this time was to save those innocent children. The other was to arouse public outrage and make it extremely difficult for the second prince to ascend the throne!

Fortunately, they didn't put their hope of completely overthrowing the second prince in this matter, otherwise they would have failed again!

Thinking of this, Qiao Zhongguo looked at the prince calmly.

When should we reveal the story of our life experience?

The prince's eyes moved slightly, but before he could speak, there was a sudden noise outside the imperial study room.

Huang Pei frowned suddenly, and immediately went out to inspect before Emperor Yong was angry.

After a while, Huang Pei walked in with a pale face and a stack of paintings in his hand.

Emperor Yong raised his eyebrows. What could have frightened Huang Pei into being like this?

Huang Pei's feet were so weak that he knelt on the ground with a plop and said in a trembling voice:

"Your Majesty, someone... someone from the palace... saw some paintings from the East Palace, and now... they are presented to Your Majesty."

Huang Pei said, quickly glancing at the prince.

It's over! It's over!

How could the prince be so careless and be plotted against? If the emperor saw the painting, he would be furious!

Chapter 327: Father, son and minister are wronged!

After hearing this, everyone looked at Huang Pei.

The second prince's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and his expression brightened slightly. It seemed that Uncle Zhou had indeed succeeded.

"painting?"

Emperor Yong frowned slightly, glanced at the prince, and said in a deep voice: "Come forward."

There was some "surprise" in the prince's expression, and he took a step forward unconsciously.

Huang Pei didn't even dare to get up. He gingerly placed the pile of paintings in front of him, took out the top one, gritted his teeth and opened it violently!

The content of the painting comes into view, which is a beautiful woman half-leaning on the beauty couch. Her clothes have been lowered to her arms, and the hazy gauze covers her body, outlining her exquisite curves.

The woman raised her head slightly, with a confused expression, but her slightly raised eyes looked outward, as if looking straight into the heart of the viewer.

What is unbearable to look at is that there are yellow stains on the body of the woman in the portrait, which are extremely suspicious marks.

When everyone in the palace saw this scene, they all gasped!

Because this face is clearly that of the deceased Jade Concubine!

"Mother...mother concubine..."

The second prince murmured, his face turned pale, his thin body swayed, and he almost stopped standing.

Jinzhu on the ground turned around when she heard the sound. When she saw the person in the portrait clearly, her face was distorted and she let out a sharp and crazy scream!

"Ah!!! You beasts! How dare you...how dare you taint the princess like this! I'll kill you!"

Amid Jinzhu's crazy scream, Emperor Yong slowly stood up.

Qiao Zhongguo raised his eyes and saw that Emperor Yong's face was red, his eyes were bulging, and the veins on his forehead were beating visibly to the naked eye.

Emperor Yong's chest heaved violently. He opened his mouth, then suddenly leaned over and threw everything on the case towards the prince!

"Obstacle! You evil obstacle!"

Emperor Yong roared, and when he looked at the prince, his eyes showed a hint of scarlet.

The inkstone was the heaviest, and it was thrown directly onto the prince's thigh with great force, making a muffled sound.

The prince didn't even frown, he just stared at Emperor Yong deeply.

His father was furious and looked at him with eyes that didn't seem like he was looking at a son, but more like looking at his enemy!

Father, you didn't even ask if your son had anything to say.

I am the crown prince of a country, but now you are calling me evil in front of everyone...

Yeah--

The prince's eyes were dark, and the deep emotions flashed away.

The next moment, he knelt down with a "thud" sound, his face full of panic, and he shouted: "Father, I am wronged! I have never seen these portraits!"

"These days, the East Palace is busy with my son's wedding, so it is inevitable that some omissions will be made. This is someone trying to frame me!"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Yong's anger subsided slightly, and his rationality returned vaguely.

Just now he saw the unbearable scene in the portrait, and his anger and disgust broke out at the same time. He almost didn't have time to think before he was ignited.

That's right, this matter... this matter cannot be judged arbitrarily.

Emperor Yong thought like this, and tightly grasped the jade case in front of him with both hands.

His hands started shaking again!

Seeing that Emperor Yong was showing signs of calming down, the second prince immediately knelt down heavily, with tears on his face and his voice hoarse:

"Unjustly accused? Framed?"

"Brother Imperial, your position as Crown Prince is extremely stable. You are favored by your father, the Queen, your mother, and your Queen, and you are protected by Sir Qiao and other capable ministers. Who has the courage and ability to frame you?"

"My mother-in-law has passed away long ago. Although she is an enemy country and a princess, she cannot tolerate such contempt and trampling!"

"Father, as a son of a human being, it is a huge regret that I do not have the opportunity to serve my mother and concubine. Now, no one will be allowed to insult my mother and concubine!"

"Please ask my father to give justice to my mother and concubine! Otherwise, as a human son, I can only die to show my will and protect my mother and concubine's innocence!"

The second prince said, his eyes never looking at Yong Emperor, but staring straight at the corner of the jade case, with the intention of killing him.

Emperor Yong's head was pounding, and he felt a heat surge in his chest, almost bursting out of his throat.

He lowered his eyes to look at the second prince. In a trance, the second prince seemed to have turned into Yu Liu, kneeling in the palace and shaking his head at him in despair and sorrow.

Emperor Yong's face turned red. He looked at the prince suddenly and realized that the prince coveted jade and did such dirty and obscene things. He ignored the principles of human ethics. He was extremely hateful and unworthy of being the crown prince of a country!

Qiao Zhongguo had been watching Emperor Yong, and when he saw Emperor Yong looking at the prince with a fierce expression, he couldn't help but feel frightened.

Strange, so strange!

Just now His Highness the Crown Prince made a few rebuttals, and His Majesty had obviously come to his senses. Why did the Second Prince's words completely influence His Majesty's judgment?

He has been assisting the Holy Emperor for so many years, and the Holy Emperor has done a lot of foolish things, but the emperor still has his mind.

Otherwise, he would not have treated him equally with kindness and power. While retaining him, he also made it clear that he would be punished.

This... Could it be that the Holy Master's obsession with Yu Liu has reached such a crazy level that he really wants to fulfill Meng Guxue's prophecy that "the father will kill the father and the son"!

"Prince...Prince, what else do you have to say! Do you want to say that the second brother is so heartbroken that he used his mother and concubine to frame you!"

The prince suddenly raised his head when he heard this. Even though he had been mentally prepared, his heart was still completely cut open at this moment.

Father has made a choice...

Even though the second brother's life experience has been aroused, the father still chose the second brother.

At this moment, the prince raised his lips and even wanted to laugh.

What Meng Guxue said was indeed true, my father... could indeed be ruthless enough to kill him!

However, he is no longer the cowardly and incompetent prince with extravagant hopes as predicted by Meng Guxue!

"Father, the Jade Concubine is indeed a treasure in your eyes."

"But in the eyes of my son, she is a scheming enemy princess who prevented her father from expanding her territory, disrupted the former harem, and even made her mother suffer."

"If my son says this, will my father still think that my son covets the Jade Concubine?"

This was the first time that the prince disobeyed Emperor Yong. He knelt on the ground, straightened his back, looked calm and spoke firmly.

Emperor Yong's angry brows showed a hint of disbelief. He raised his hand and pointed at the prince, his arms shaking slightly.

Everyone thought this was a sign of Emperor Yong's anger. Only Huang Pei knew that the Holy Emperor was ill again!

He stood up suddenly, trying to ease the tit-for-tat atmosphere between Emperor Yong and the prince, but Emperor Yong had already spoken coldly:

"Okay, the prince has been kind and obedient for so many years, but today he made me see my true nature again!"

"Come here! The prince is disobedient and covets the palace concubine. He is filthy and chaotic--"

"Your Majesty!"

Huang Pei's face turned pale and he spoke out quickly at the risk of beheading!

The emperor's words are as heavy as a mountain, and some words cannot be changed once they are spoken!

Emperor Yong was slightly shocked when he heard the sound. The moment he paused, the second prince burst into tears and shouted in a trembling voice:

"Please ask my father to make the decision for my mother and concubine!"

Under the persuasion and persecution from all directions, Emperor Yong felt a splitting headache!

He opened his mouth, his voice cold and trembling.

"The prince's filth in the harem is an unforgivable crime! Today--"

"Your Majesty! Duke Dingguo held a sign outside the palace and asked for an audience. He shouted - it's urgent!"

At this time, a little eunuch rushed over with a token in hand, knelt outside the hall and shouted loudly!

Chapter 328 After you sing, I will appear.

There was an old system in the Yong Dynasty.

The general of the Hussars was leading his troops outside, holding in his hand a hundred thousand emergency tokens given by the Emperor himself, so that when the battle situation became urgent, he could go directly to the imperial front without having to report at all levels.

When Xiao Hongda resigned as General of the Hussars, Emperor Yong was grateful for his service in guarding the border for more than ten years, so he deliberately did not take back the token to show his favor.

At this time, Xiao Hongda presented the token, saying that he was in urgent need and Emperor Yong must see him!

Seeing this opportunity, Huang Pei hurriedly rushed to Emperor Yong's side and said quickly:

"Your Majesty, the ancestral rules are upheld. This urgent order of 100,000 people must be received as soon as possible!"

Emperor Yong shook his head and swallowed the rest of his words.

He waved his right hand, "Xuan!"

The second prince frowned, it was almost!

Duke Dingguo is the quasi-father-in-law of the emperor's brother. When he comes here at this time, what will happen...

The second prince was worried and had a vague premonition.

Because according to the original plan, this portrait was most likely transmitted from the Dingguo Palace to the East Palace.

Could it be...

Duke Ding Xiao Hongda arrived so quickly that the second prince could even imagine Xiao Hongda striding down the palace road with his hems flying.

Because when he appeared in front of everyone, there was already sweat on his temples.

"I am here to see you, Your Majesty!"

Xiao Hongda came to the palace and bowed respectfully.

He raised his eyes and glanced at the situation in the palace, and secretly glanced at Qiao Zhongguo, knowing that his timing was just right!

In fact, he had already boarded the carriage waiting outside the palace, but if the second prince hadn't made a move yet, his rash appearance seemed deliberate.

Dalang had already arranged for a young eunuch to deliver the message. I heard he was someone close to the fourth prince and he would send the message when the time came.

He was completely at ease with Dalang, so he sat quietly and waited for more than half an hour. As soon as he received the message, he immediately handed over the 100,000 emergency tokens!

Emperor Yong lowered his eyes. During the short period of waiting for Xiao Hongda, his mood finally calmed down.

At this moment, he glanced at the second prince and then at the prince, feeling as if he was almost torn apart as his emotions surged.

He secretly clenched his fists under the case and said in a deep voice: "Xiao Aiqing, do you know that one hundred thousand emergency tokens is not a piece of cake? If you have anything important to do, please report it as soon as possible!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Hongda immediately reached into his arms and took out a neatly folded piece of paper.

He raised the paper high above his head and said in a solemn voice: "Back to the Holy Spirit, today when I was counting the eldest daughter's dowry, I accidentally discovered this thing and immediately felt chills all over my body!"

"The dowry of the prospective crown princess is to be sent to the East Palace. I can't imagine how much criticism and slander His Highness the Crown Prince will receive if this thing appears in the East Palace."

"Therefore, I made my own decision and used a hundred thousand urgent orders, just to see the Holy One immediately!"

As soon as Xiao Hongda said this, Huang Pei's whole body suddenly became energetic!

Could it be...could this be the prince's plan?

Thinking of this, Huang Pei hurriedly bypassed the long case and came to Xiao Hongda. He carefully took the paper and slowly unfolded it facing Emperor Yong.

The next moment, a portrait similar to the one presented by Huang Pei just now appeared in front of everyone!

The second prince closed his eyes slightly when he saw this, and understood everything instantly.

Sure enough...

He originally thought that Uncle Zhou had succeeded, but it turned out that this plan had been seen through by the other party, and they actually used a trick to trick him!

However, that was one of the clever tricks left by his mother-in-law. Even he had never thought of such a dirty idea before, so no one should have expected this move.

Why...why opponents always see through his plans strangely, as if they are predicting the future...

The prophet!

As soon as these four words appeared, the second prince instantly thought of Meng Guxue who went to Nanli Country for marriage.

When they were leaving that day, he asked Meng Guxue if she could tell him Zhufeng's ending if she could predict the future.

He really wanted to know Zhufeng's whereabouts, but it was also the last time he tested Meng Guxue.

Meng Guxue really didn't have any scheming intentions. She chose to answer his questions lightly, but she forgot to deny his hypothesis.

Among all the people present, the only one who could come into contact with Meng Guxue, and even make Meng Guxue open her heart without any defense, was the one who saved her life - Qiao Zhongguo!

Thinking of this, the second prince suddenly turned his head and his eyes fell directly on Qiao Zhongguo!

This is why he has been trying so hard to get rid of the Qiao family. The Qiao family has become the biggest stumbling block for him to ascend to the throne!

How could the imperial brother have fought against him to this point without the support of the Qiao family?

Qiao Zhongguo noticed the second prince's gaze, his face remained calm, but he was secretly amazed in his heart.

Did this make him figure it out? Really smart!

At this time, Xiao Hongda was still continuing to exert his strength!

"Your Majesty, I don't know what kind of thief has such sinister intentions, but when you think about the thief's motives, it's simply horrifying!"

"He is trying to use this dirty trick to seduce Your Majesty and His Royal Highness the Prince and his son, and even make His Majesty make an irreversible decision in anger!"

"Please, Your Majesty, order an investigation to uncover the culprits, and restore the innocence of His Highness the Crown Prince and his ministers. This is also to seek justice for the Jade Concubine!"

The last sentence directly blocked the second prince's mouth.

Didn't he just keep clamoring to make the decision for the Jade Concubine? Now their demands are the same!

The second prince sneered. The confrontation just now caused him to openly quarrel with the prince. Now that this matter has been brought up, there is no reason to let it go easily!

"Since Duke Dingguo is the quasi-father-in-law of the emperor, he is naturally towards the emperor. This time, my mother and concubine were humiliated for no reason. Who knows whether it is--"

"Your Majesty! I want to see your Majesty!"

There was a loud noise outside the imperial study room again, and it was very urgent.

Emperor Yong raised his eyes and looked outside the palace. At this moment, he had vaguely guessed the truth about the portrait.

The anger that had aroused just now had completely disappeared at this moment. He looked at the prince and the second prince sitting down, and realized very clearly that neither of them were simple.

In this game, even he, the king of a country, was caught up in it, calculated and pulled.

He tilted his head slightly, glanced at the hidden grid on the wall, and let out a low breath.

No one knows what thoughts are surging in Emperor Yong's heart at this moment.

Huang Pei is a smart person. At this moment, he has figured out the context of the whole thing. When he saw the prince's side, you sang and I came on stage, he was full of excitement.

He lowered his head slightly and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, from the sound of the voice, it seems that the person outside the palace seeking to see you is Concubine Jing."

Emperor Yong nodded, "Xuan."

There were foreign ministers in the palace, so Huang Pei hurriedly stepped forward to make arrangements. Before Concubine Jing entered the palace, he asked his servants to set up a screen.

As soon as Concubine Jing entered the palace, Gulu immediately knelt down and shouted: "Your Majesty! This is incredible, the harem is turned upside down!"

"The palace servants found a piece of filth in my concubine's palace today. It is simply unsightly!"

The second prince's eyelids twitched suddenly, and the next moment, there was another sound outside the palace.

"Your Majesty, the queen, Aunt Mei, is holding a painting and begging to see her!"

"Your Majesty, Zhou Zhaoyi holds a painting to ask for an audience!"

"Your Majesty..."

Huang Pei: (•́⍛•̀; ≡ •́⍛•̀;)

God, this old man is going to have his hands full!

Chapter 329 The second prince's life experience is questionable

Concubine Jing was extremely reluctant to come.

She was so disgusted with Yu Liu that she felt uncomfortable holding her paintings, let alone the dirty paintings in her hands!

She entered the palace only half a year earlier than Yu Liu. At that time, the Holy Emperor was new to her. She was looking forward to conceiving a dragon heir every day, so that she could fully establish herself in the palace.

As a result, as soon as Concubine Jade came, the Holy Emperor did not go anywhere, but stayed in the Golden Jade Palace all day long.

However, Concubine Jade is someone who plays hard to get. She always has a cold face, but she is also good at playing tricks. Today she met her by chance in the Royal Garden, and tomorrow she dances in the Chunhua Garden.

Seeing that even the Queen had to temporarily avoid the spotlight, she felt extremely aggrieved.

She also played a trick on that day, taking advantage of the fact that the Holy One had hit a snag with Yu Liu, and dragged the Holy One into Chunhua Palace in vain. After a few glasses of wine, she finally rolled onto the bed with the Holy One.

Her belly was also up to par, and she actually got pregnant after that day!

She was so proud that she even went to the Jinyu Palace to show off. On the same day, Yuliu was also diagnosed as pregnant, and she was pregnant earlier than she was. She was so angry that she had a stomachache at night.

Fortunately, the imperial doctor was summoned in time that night, and he only said that it was fetal gas, and it would be fine after two days of treatment.

Later, she discovered that her belly was larger than normal. When she called the doctor, she discovered that she was actually twins!

She was overjoyed and carefully waited until the baby was almost full term, but Yu Liu had already given birth to the second prince before her.

What happened next was not pleasant, and I don't know if it was because she had had fetal contractions. Once the twins were born, the daughter was fine, but the son was so small that he couldn't even cry.

When Yu Liu was out of confinement, she pretended to visit her once, and she almost vomited her to death!

If Jing'er hadn't gotten the message today that this matter was not simple and told her to make trouble in front of the Holy Lord, she wouldn't have bothered to come!

As a result, at this moment, when she heard that Aunt Mei, who was next to the Queen, came, Zhou Zhaoyi came, and Miss Lin also came, she was so happy!

Who is so "evil" and spreads Yu Liu's dirty paintings all over the palace? Isn't this embarrassing?

The second prince seems to be in the palace at the moment?

Relying on the emperor's lingering love for Yu Liu, he had a much better life than Jing'er.

From what Jing'er said just now, it seems that this matter is aimed at the prince, and I'm afraid it has something to do with the second prince.

laugh--

If the second prince really shot himself in the foot, she would be ashamed of him!

At this time, Aunt Mei also walked into the hall and knelt respectfully behind Concubine Jing.

As soon as the portrait in his hand was taken away by Huang Pei, Grandma Mei spoke loudly:

"Your Majesty, this servant is sending a message for the queen. As the master of the harem, such filth appears in the harem. The queen is deeply ashamed."

"This happened strangely. I have been thinking about it for a long time. I am afraid that because of the recent doubts about His Highness's life experience, someone heard the news and made trouble, so she set up this trap."

"My Majesty, please beg Your Majesty, in order to restore peace to the harem, as soon as possible find out the doubts about the life experience of His Highness the Second Highness, and also to restore the innocence of the late Jade Concubine!"

Aunt Mei's words are clear and clear, and her words stir up a stir!

Concubine Jing on the side was shocked when she heard this!

━Σ(ﾟДﾟ|||)━

ah?

Did she hear it wrong? Isn't it Jing'er who is rumored in the palace to have doubts about his life experience? How did he become the second prince?

The Second Prince was shaken all over, and the speculation that had never been confirmed since entering the palace was finally settled at this moment.

Sure enough, this--is the fatal blow prepared by the imperial brother for him!

Now it seems that Aunt Rou is probably forced to confess. The reason why even Jinzhu doesn't know where Aunt Rou is is because he wants Aunt Rou to be the last resort to defeat him!

At this time, Qiao Zhongguo looked "shocked" and whispered in a very "uncalm" voice, immediately confirming the matter!

The empress has a pure heart, and her every move is like a thunderous blow. Naturally, he, Lao Qiao, has to cooperate well.

According to the information Dalang gave him, the question of the second prince's background has not been made public.

The Holy One only found out about the matter when he "accidentally" dug up the Liufuzi while investigating rumors about the third prince.

The Empress did this, firstly, to solve the problem of the portrait for Her Highness the Prince, and secondly, while they were all around, she deliberately revealed the matter and forced the Holy One to thoroughly investigate the second prince's life experience in front of everyone!

After all, with His Majesty's love for the second prince, it is very likely that he will confront the second prince secretly after they all leave.

In this case, they would not be able to perform a blood test!

If the Holy Emperor was deceived by the Second Prince again, they would have completely missed the opportunity.

Therefore, the Queen's move kills two birds with one stone, which is indeed wonderful!

Xiao Hongda had already promised Qiao Tianjing not to let Qiao Zhongguo get too far ahead, so he picked up the conversation in time.

"What? This nanny, you just said that there are doubts about the second prince's life experience? This, this, this... this is simply the most ridiculous thing in the world!"

Aunt Mei is the Queen's personal nanny, so she is naturally smart and answered the call immediately.

"Whether it is yes or not, you will know once you check it, and you will be clear once you check it! I believe that the Holy Emperor will definitely report it to the Duke and will not let the royal bloodline be confused in the slightest!"

When the conversation came to this point, the prince also stood up.

"Father, the queen's words are reasonable. The portrait issue caused a lot of commotion, but now it seems that it turned out to be aimed at the second brother!"

"The Qing Dynasty has since purified itself. This sentence was given to me by my sons and ministers just now, and now it is given to my second brother and the Jade Concubine."

"I believe that the Jade Concubine was sincere in her surrender back then and will not bring shame to the Yong Dynasty and the Northern Kingdom at the same time. I also ask my father to investigate thoroughly!"

Xiao Hongda immediately agreed: "Please ask your Majesty to conduct a thorough investigation!"

Upon seeing this, Qiao Zhongguo immediately followed.

The second prince's breathing quickened slightly, knowing that he had to use his trump card after all.

According to Uncle Zhou, his life experience is indeed false. If Aunt Rou's confession is added, he may not be able to stand up.

Now I can only wait for the right time and make a desperate move!

Thinking of this, the second prince tensed his body slightly. The wound on his left shoulder stung instantly, and it was obvious that it had not completely healed.

Just right...

The second prince's eyes were gloomy, and he suddenly knelt down heavily, looking at Emperor Yong in disbelief, and said with great shock:

"Father, what are they talking about? My son... Is there any problem with my life experience?"

Emperor Yong closed his eyes slightly. He was really sick. After sitting for a while, he felt extremely tired.

No matter what, let's see how far it will develop today!

With his thoughts at this point, Emperor Yong suddenly opened his eyes and said coldly:

"Second brother, someone in the palace secretly said that Concubine Jade betrayed me and that your biological father is someone else!"

"The blood of the royal family cannot be confused. Today we will distinguish the right from the wrong. If you have any grievances, feel free to argue in a moment!"

"If this matter is true, I will naturally follow the rules of my ancestors and give an explanation to the world! Give an explanation to the Queen!"

When the second prince heard this, he showed no fear on his face, and replied righteously: "My son, I believe in my father, and I believe in my mother and concubine. Everything is decided by my father!"

Emperor Yong no longer responded to the second prince, but turned to look at Huang Pei.

Huang Pei understood this and was excited and scared at the same time. He shouted outside the palace:

"Come here, take Liufuzi and Zhou Liu into custody!"

Chapter 330 That idiot is him

Suddenly hearing Uncle Zhou's name, the second prince couldn't help but secretly change his expression.

Uncle Zhou was indeed caught!

But who is this Liufuzi? And why has Aunt Rou never been mentioned?

Soon, the two people were escorted up.

Uncle Zhou has not been punished yet, but he looks a little more embarrassed, but he is still in good spirits.

Seeing the second prince standing in the palace from a distance, Uncle Zhou suddenly became angry, his heart full of worry and uneasiness.

After he returned to the capital, he began to paint the portrait without conscience.

The East Palace was just as His Highness expected, even though it was preparing for the wedding, everything was still intact.

So he turned his attention to the unsuspecting Duke Dingguo's palace. Sure enough, he found a flaw and stuffed the portrait into the dowry that would be sent to the East Palace in the next few days.

But at this moment the prince is still standing well...

Is it because the portrait has not been exposed yet, or is it because the Dog Emperor is partial to the prince and has just let the matter go?

Uncle Zhou couldn't think of an answer, so he could only calm down and didn't dare to show any panic.

After he arranged the portrait, he was caught by Emperor Yong's people when he was returning to the inn.

He was horrified and guessed that Chu Rou might not have been able to resist the torture and revealed His Highness's life experience!

Thinking of this, Uncle Zhou gritted his teeth and felt extremely hateful!

Chu Rou, Chu Rou, why are you so weak-minded? It's in vain that I, Zhou Liu, boasted in front of His Highness, saying that we would never betray the princess and His Highness!

He had been arrested for three days, and he expected to be severely tortured, but in the end, neither the Dog Emperor nor Huang Pei came to look for him once.

Now he understood clearly that he wanted to wait for His Highness to return to the capital and confront him in person!

That's fine! He would like to ask Chu Rou why she leaked the secret!

Compared with Uncle Zhou, Liufuzi was much miserable.

The whippings I received a few days ago were not treated. Some scabs formed on their own, while others festered.

He limped inside and glanced up when he entered the hall. When he saw the prince standing on the left side of the hall, his eyes suddenly shrank and he no longer dared to look there.

We have come this far, we must not reveal any flaws!

Jinzhu on the ground turned around and saw Uncle Zhou, and shouted in his heart that something was wrong.

She didn't know where the news about His Highness's doubts about his life experience came from, but Zhou Liu had to grit his teeth and protect His Highness with her!

At this time, Uncle Zhou and Liufuzi were kneeling in the hall.

When the prince saw Liufuzi's miserable state, he clenched his hands under his sleeves.

Huang Pei asked Emperor Yong for permission. After receiving Emperor Yong's approval, Huang Pei walked up to Liufuzi and raised his voice:

"Liufuzi is the young eunuch of Chonghua Palace, and he is an important witness!"

"Liufuzi."

Huang Pei leaned over and called out softly.

Liufuzi trembled and hurriedly raised his head, revealing a face with festering wounds.

Huang Pei sighed incomprehensibly, and then said coldly: "Tell me everything you said that day, word for word!"

Liufuzi immediately leaned to the ground and spoke in a trembling voice:

"Yes! The reason why I know that His Highness the Second Highness has doubts about his life experience is... because he heard Uncle Zhou's secret words!"

"That day slave..."

Liufuzi continued intermittently, telling the "truth" that he had recalled countless times.

Uncle Zhou looked puzzled at first, why Chu Rou was not there, but a young eunuch from Chonghua Palace became an important witness.

When the word "Uncle Zhou" came out of the little eunuch's mouth, he trembled all over and subconsciously wanted to shout slander.

However, when Liufuzi told him word by word the scene where he paid homage to Di Zaiying that night, and even the time and the content of his secret words were exactly the same, Uncle Zhou seemed to have been struck by a bolt from the blue, and his whole body was shaken. Dai was stunned.

Until Liu Fuzi finished speaking, Uncle Zhou was still in a state of semi-dementia, as if he had taken root in the ground.

How...how could it be him!

Was he the fool who revealed His Highness's life experience and caused all this crisis?

Uncle Zhou suddenly trembled. At this moment, it seemed as if the sky was about to collapse. His heart was beating violently, his blood vessels and meridians were congested, and his whole body was about to explode!

It's him! It's him!

It's not Chu Rou, he is the sinner!

Uncle Zhou was trembling all over, and he didn't even dare to raise his head to look at the second prince standing aside.

The second prince looked stunned, equally shocked, even completely unexpected!

It turns out...it turns out that this hidden danger was buried so early. It turns out that it was Uncle Zhou...

Jin Zhu was also dumbfounded. Her face was dull and she couldn't come back to her senses for a long time.

She never imagined that the knife that was stabbed at His Highness was handed to the enemy by Uncle Zhou himself!

idiot! This idiot!

If he hadn't been given Ruanjin San, Jin Zhu would have wanted to pounce on him and bite off a piece of Uncle Zhou's flesh!

Di Zaiying died because he was willing to do so and because he did not overestimate his own capabilities. Why should he be sacrificed to him? Why sacrifice him in the palace!

Even if you are just burning paper money, why are you so uncontrollable and can't you just keep your mouth shut!

She had long felt that Di Zaiying was a stumbling block to the princess. His strategy and courage were not worthy of the princess at all, and he would only be a drag on the princess!

That time, when Zhou Liu and Liu Xi sent Di Zaiying to the palace, she took an opportunity to reprimand Di Zaiying severely.

For the sake of the princess, there is nothing she Jinzhu dare not say!

If Di Zaiying really loved the princess and was really good to her, he should not have entered the palace this time, and he should even have completely cut off any relationship with her!

The princess had Di Zaiying in her heart, otherwise she would not have indulged in that night, but that night left endless troubles!

"Zhou Liu, what do you have to say?"

Huang Pei's face was grave. He believed Liufuzi's words in his heart.

At this time, Uncle Zhou's legs were trembling and trembling. He couldn't breathe out from his chest, and his eyes felt black every time he opened his mouth.

"Uncle Zhou, what's going on?"

The second prince's voice suddenly sounded, extremely calm.

Uncle Zhou instinctively followed the words, and when he saw the second prince's face that was so calm that there was almost no wave, his rationality finally came back a little.

His whole body was still convulsing uncontrollably, but he could already shout: "It's unfair! This is simply an unjust injustice!"

"What's Di Zaiying? I don't know this person at all!"

"This dog slave... This dog slave was created out of nothing. Just because Na Di Zaiying is from the north, he put this label on the old slave!"

"It's true that the old slave is from the Northern Kingdom, but now the old slave serves His Highness wholeheartedly and has absolutely no different intentions!"

Uncle Zhou finally calmed down as he spoke.

He deserves to die. After this incident is over, he will definitely die to apologize to His Highness!

But he can't panic now, otherwise he'll just bring it upon himself!

So what if Liufuzi heard what he said? He could totally beat him up if he said it was unfounded!

"This dog slave is hiding in Chonghua Palace with ulterior motives and fabricating such evil words. I'm afraid someone is behind it and wants to bring down His Highness the Second Prince!"

"Please, Your Majesty, please investigate and clear His Highness's innocence!"

When Uncle Zhou said this, he went against his conscience and bowed deeply to the dog emperor whom he hated deeply.
