Chapter 226 Evil Intentions
Chapter 226 Evil Intentions
At this time in the imperial study.
"Your Majesty, Prince Ping has arrived."
The eunuch Wei Quanfu, the chief steward of the imperial court, was whispering respectfully beside Emperor Xuanhe.
"Humph!"
"Brainless thing!"
When Xuanhe Di Jiang Xuanqing heard this, he put down the memorial in his hand heavily, with no expression on his face. He had known from the secret guards why the seventh brother came here a long time ago.
"Let him in."
"Yes!"
Wei Quanfu gave an instruction to his disciple Deyuan who was waiting at the door, and then waited respectfully beside Xuan Hedi.
After a while, King Ping walked in, looking as if he had suffered a great injustice.
However, he still saluted the current emperor Jiang Xuanqing with proper etiquette, not daring to make any mistakes.
"My son, I will meet my father."
Emperor Xuanhe looked at his son who was kneeling below him with a miserable and aggrieved look on his face. He did not ask Jiang Yu to stand up, but just asked calmly, as if he knew nothing.
"Didn't you just go out this morning? Why are you here again?"
"Your Majesty, I beg you to make the decision!"
When Jiang Yu heard this, his eyes turned red and his tone of voice was filled with tears.
"What's the point of a real man crying like that? You don't have the courage of a royal heir at all!"
Emperor Xuanhe frowned when he saw him like this. He actually looked down on the Seventh Prince. It was because of the audacity of the foot-washing palace maid that he came into being.
Now Jiang Yu himself is not motivated, mediocre, cowardly, and immediately starts to teach him a lesson.
When Jiang Yu, who was kneeling below, heard this, his eyes were cold and ferocious as he stared at the ground, but he still replied respectfully and timidly.
"Father's teachings are true, son. I will remember them carefully in the future and not bring disgrace to the royal family."
"But regarding today's matter, I beg Your Majesty to have mercy on me and make the decision for me!"
Emperor Xuanhe looked at his son who was quite respectful, then at the memorial in his hand, and after a while he began to ask.
"What is it that makes you, a prince, behave like this?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yu quickly told everything that happened today. He did not add too much exaggeration, but just cried while speaking, which gave Xuan and Di a headache.
"Father, that Qiu Meng is so audacious that she tried to confuse the royal heirs."
"Su Youan is even more rebellious, and he even speaks nonsense, nonsense..."
"Why are you hesitating? Speak!"
Emperor Xuanhe naturally knew what treasonous words Su Youan had said before, but now he needed to say it through the mouth of the seventh brother.
"Yes, Father, that Su Youan is making a fool of himself by saying that he will make this son of yours live a life worse than death once my second brother ascends the throne!"
"I was born stupid and was horrified to hear this. I beg you, Father, to make the decision for me!"
Jiang Yu didn't know whether his father, who was extremely cunning, knew about this, but it must have touched his sore spot.
So not only did he speak with sincerity, but he also acted with trepidation.
"Snapped!"
Emperor Xuanhe seemed to have heard such words for the first time, and he threw the document in his hand down in anger.
"His Su family is so bold!"
"How dare a child like you confuse the royal bloodline and even dare to criticize my country!"
Wei Quanfu, who was standing aside, listened at the end with his head lowered, glanced at Xuan Hedi's expression calmly, and then whispered something in Xuan Hedi's ear, which was quite timely.
"Your Majesty, Su Youan and Qiu are kneeling outside the palace. Prince De and Prime Minister Su have already entered the Suzaku Gate and will soon reach the Shuntian Gate."
"Bring Su Youan and Qiu in. I want to take a closer look and see what gave them such courage."
Although Emperor Xuanhe knew about this before, he was still very unhappy at the end. Su Youan or the Su family was challenging his authority.
It can be seen that he was never taken seriously on weekdays!
Jiang Yu, who was kneeling below, was trembling with fear, his whole body was shaking, looking cowardly and sad.
After a while, Su Youan and Qiu Meng were brought in.
"I, Su Youan, pay my respects to His Majesty. May Your Majesty be well and safe."
"I, Qiu, pay my respects to His Majesty. May His Majesty be well and safe."
Emperor Xuan He looked at the two people who were prostrating themselves on the ground and paying their respects. Their clothes had been slightly tidied up, but some traces of their previous debauchery could still be seen.
Upon seeing this, Emperor Xuan He was obviously angry, his face was full of anger, and his voice was majestic and oppressive.
"Su Youan, you are so brave, your Su family is so brave!"
All the servants around, including Wei Quanfu, quickly knelt down one by one.
Su Youan, who was lying below him, crawled even lower, his whole body shaking. He was truly frightened, realizing for the first time that he seemed to be in real trouble.
"Your Majesty, calm down!"
"Calm down! You want me to calm down today, but you want my throne tomorrow!"
The imperial study was filled with people kneeling on the floor. After hearing these words, they were instantly frightened into silence.
"Your Majesty, please calm down! Please take care of the dragon's health."
After a while, Wei Quanfu felt that Xuan and Di's breathing rate had slowed down a little, and then he spoke worriedly.
Emperor Xuanhe glanced at Wei Quanfu who was kneeling beside him and suppressed the anger in his heart.
Then Deyuan came to report that Prime Minister Su and Prince De wanted to see him.
"Proclaim"
The two men came in and bowed, observing the current emperor's expression calmly.
I noticed that there was something unclear in his eyes, and although there was anger on his face, I couldn't tell what he was thinking.
Emperor Xuanhe looked at the Prime Minister kneeling below him, and his increasingly outstanding son, and asked with a hint of anger in his tone:
"It's good to have you, my dear Lord Su. You are truly capable, this old man. Not only did you have the audacity to confuse the royal bloodline, but you also spoke wildly and presumptuously about the ownership of the throne beneath me."
"Su Baiqian, I want to ask you, is this the result of your constant teaching and harboring evil intentions?"
"Your Majesty, you are wronged. This rebellious son is immoral and has caused such a disaster. His Royal Highnesses Prince Ping and Prince De have been implicated. This is the fault of this rebellious son. I hope Your Majesty will atone for his sins!"
Prime Minister Su looked at his rebellious son kneeling beside him, and after listening to Emperor Xuanhe's questions, he cried out in injustice.
"But Your Majesty, although I may be foolish, I absolutely have no intention of disobeying you!"
"I, an old minister, have spent half my life in the political arena, and I only want to be loyal to Your Majesty and seek benefits for Dayu. I, and the Su family, have never had any other thoughts. I hope Your Majesty will understand!"
"I hope Your Majesty will calm down. Everything the Prime Minister has done for you and the country of Dayu is witnessed by all. I believe the Prime Minister has absolutely no intention of being disloyal."
Seeing this, Prince De Jiang Che, who was kneeling beside, panicked and forgot what Feng Ziyi had told him before. He couldn't help but speak up to plead for his grandfather, the prime minister.
As soon as he said this, everyone present had different expressions. Prime Minister Su Baiqian's heart skipped a beat and his face tightened.
After hearing Prince De's plea, Emperor Xuanhe's face, which had been expressionless to begin with, now showed clear signs of anger.
"Calm down, all of you, calm me down. You are all acting like neither a king nor a minister, and all of you have your eyes fixed on my throne!"
"I'm not dead yet! Are you all so impatient?"
"puff……"
After Emperor Xuan He finished cursing, his chest suddenly tightened, his face turned pale, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
"His Majesty!"
"His Majesty"
"Mr. Xuan!"
……
The entire palace was suddenly in chaos...
