Chapter 434: Being targeted by the rebels
"That's right. After all, a lot of news in the court comes to us from the four kings."
"It's normal for Master Pang to be afraid."
Pang Qingyun broke out in a cold sweat, he knew it would be like this.
The old emperor's eyes darkened again, and Pang Qingyun was frightened.
The Second King continued:
"Back then, the young master of Grand Tutor Pang's family was in trouble. The Four Princes had their hand in this, as well as the aunt whom Grand Tutor treated as his mother."
"Mr. Pang Da is very lucky and has a good life."
The second king's speech was like cutting Pang Qingyun's flesh with a blunt knife.
All of Jin'er's misfortunes were caused by his stupid father!
Those who harmed Jin'er were all the people he treated as honored guests and protected wholeheartedly!
How stupid he was that he never doubted these people!
"Master Pang, don't you find it strange? Ever since you brought your aunt back home, your wife's pregnancy has been sealed."
"And it's not just the eldest son who has suffered misfortune, even the second son of your family has suffered misfortune several times."
"The persecution only stopped after word spread in Kyoto that your second son was uneducated and unskillful."
"Think about what this is all for!"
"Did your aunt's legitimate son leave behind a son? Did your aunt ever tell you that she wanted to adopt that child into your family's name?"
Pang Qingyun's heart had completely turned cold.
The child was the same age as Che'er. At first, he did think of adopting the child under his name because of his aunt's crying.
Since his wife firmly disagreed, he gave up the idea.
But he treated the child as his own, just like Jin'er and Che'er, and the child was very mediocre.
He spent a large sum of money and owed many favors to have the child become a disciple of a great scholar of the time.
Three months ago, the child went on a long journey with the great scholar to visit his old friend and has not returned yet.
"It's a good thing that Grand Tutor Pang resolutely refused to adopt one. If he had, the two young masters of the Pang Mansion would have been killed long ago."
"Because they were in the kid's way."
"That child is not from your Pang family, but from the fourth child."
"The bloodline of the Li royal family."
"The reason why your wife has never conceived a child is also due to the actions of your aunt and the fourth son."
"It's a waste that Lord Pang was so open and honest with them, yet they almost caused him to lose his entire family lineage."
Pang Qingyun was struck by lightning, and Shen Zhao could see that his body was shaking.
When she thought of the scene when she and her father and brother went to Beijing and met Pang Yunjin, she couldn't help but sigh that this person was too miserable.
If she hadn't saved Pang Yunjin back then.
A god-like person like Pang Yunjin is probably going to rot there.
How could Master Pang withstand these blows one after another?
Now someone told him that his son's misfortune was caused by him, which hurt him more than cutting his flesh.
"Master Pang, are you confused? You clearly protected your two sons very well, so how could they suffer misfortunes one after another?"
"That's because those who harmed them were relatives whom Master Pang treated with all his heart. They were well aware of everything you arranged."
Every word the two kings said made Pang Qingyun feel like vomiting blood.
Because everything he said was true.
Jin'er and Che'er were often assassinated. He once thought that they were his political enemies, but he didn't expect that it was all the work of his supporters.
The old emperor's eyes changed several times as he looked at Pang Qingyun.
In this case, this idiot is quite pitiful.
I will not pursue him for now.
After provoking Pang Qingyun, the second prince turned and looked at the emperor very humbly.
"Brother, I have confessed everything I should confess. Please forgive me for being forced into this situation."
The old emperor looked at the second prince with sharp eyes.
Indeed, he said everything he should and shouldn't have said. If that's the case, why should I keep this beast around?
The tragic fate of him, his ninth brother and his mother was caused by this beast and his mother.
If it weren't for them, the three of them, mother and son, would never have fallen to the point of almost dying tragically.
The old emperor was just about to order the death of the second prince.
Chen Zhao hurriedly spoke to stop him:
"Your Majesty, I have something to report."
The Second Prince did not tell the Emperor anything about that mysterious family, nor did he tell the Emperor how dangerous those people left by the Xuanyuan clan in Nanchu were.
And that mysterious villa.
As well as Xuanyuan’s unique bloodline and special token.
If we rely on them to search and find that villa.
According to the second prince's description of the villa.
They were afraid that they would never find the location of the villa in their entire lives.
Even if we find the mountain, reaching the top and breaking through the layers of traps and poisonous miasma would be extremely difficult.
The Second Prince’s life is not worth taking now.
The old emperor frowned and looked at Shen Zhao.
"What do you want to say?"
I wonder if this brat would ask him to spare his life again.
This beast cannot be kept alive!
"Your Majesty, since the Second Prince has confessed everything, I beg Your Majesty to spare his life."
Upon hearing this, the Second Prince looked at Shen Zhao with appreciation.
As expected of the famous Chu Mutton, his sense of justice is overflowing!
The old emperor glared at Shen Zhao angrily when he heard this.
Shen Zhao continued with a stiff upper lip:
"Your Majesty, the Second Prince just promised to help you find the Xuanyuan family. Why don't you give the Second Prince a chance to redeem himself for his crime?"
"The Xuanyuan clan comes from overseas. Searching for someone in the ocean is like looking for a needle in a haystack."
"Since the Second Prince knows the Xuanyuan clan so well, His Majesty, sending me and others to accompany the Second Prince in his search would save both time and money."
"I believe that the Second Prince has reformed and will not let down the majesty's generosity towards him."
The Second Prince looked at Shen Zhao with satisfaction. If you can talk, just talk more. He loves to listen.
The Second Prince looked up and down at Shen Zhao.
It seems possible to use him to deal with the boss.
The Second Prince had beautiful ideas, but he didn't know that his plan was known clearly by Shen Zhao.
Use her to deal with the emperor?
Perhaps she could use the same trick to gain the Second Prince's trust and find the Xuanyuan clan's base in Southern Chu.
The old emperor pondered Shen Zhao's words. He and his ninth brother had been searching for the Xuanyuan clan for more than twenty years but had never found them.
It’s not that they haven’t sent people out to sea to search, but the sea is much more dangerous than the land they are on.
Of the ships and people sent out, only half returned, and not a single team brought back any news.
"Since Prince Zhong has pleaded for you, I, considering your remorse, will allow you to atone for your sins. I will send a team to accompany you in your quest to find the Xuanyuan clan."
The Second Prince's favorability towards Shen Zhao increased a little.
"I thank Your Majesty for not killing me."
As long as he is alive, he has a chance to bring down the idiot boss.
Hasn't he heard that if you don't get rid of the roots, spring will come again!
Doesn't he know that you can't let the tiger go back to the mountains or kill it all?
How stupid!
