"I have received many gifts from the Emperor."
Empress Xian looked around and talked about something else. Only after she finished speaking did she notice that half of the sugar figure in Yu Yiluo's hand was missing.
She looked anxious, mistakenly thinking that Yu Yiluo had eaten the candy man when she was not paying attention.
"Your Majesty, who gave Luo'er the sugar figurine?"
When the emperor saw Concubine Xian examining Yu Yiluo's mouth, he understood why she asked this question.
He raised his hand and touched his nose. "The third brother gave it to me. The candy man is for me to eat, not Luo'er."
Yu Yiluo was still wondering why her mother wanted to look at her mouth, but she understood instantly after hearing this.
She immediately puffed out her cheeks and glanced at the emperor.
[Now you know how embarrassing it was. I almost had to take the blame for you, and it made my mother worry.]
[He clearly doesn't like candy, yet he ate so much in one go. I really wonder if the tyrant did it on purpose.]
emperor:"……"
There was indeed some deliberate element in it, but this sugar man is really sweet.
Empress Xian glanced at the emperor in surprise and spoke softly to Yu Yiluo.
"Does Luo'er like candy?"
Yu Yiluo smacked her lips and nodded.
[I like it, but it has no teeth, so annoying.]
Empress Xian pinched her little face lovingly, and told Hua Rui to grind up the candied crisps sent by Jin Ting'an and soak them in water to satisfy Yu Yiluo's craving.
at the same time.
A mansion in the capital.
"Master, the Prince of Yueqing will be interrogated tomorrow. Do you need me to make arrangements?"
The man in black glanced at him and asked, "What's going on with Yao Kang?"
When the subordinate finished telling the news he had gathered, the man in black suddenly tightened his grip on the teacup, and his knuckles began to turn white.
He looked at the teacup in his hand and was silent for a while before loosening his grip on the cup.
"It seems that we won't be able to watch the excitement openly tomorrow."
Prince Yueqing is really useless. He is completely unaware that the emperor is monitoring his every move. I wonder if he has only grown older over the years without growing smarter.
He originally wanted to wait for Yao Kang to successfully enter Beijing, so that he could take advantage of the situation and take advantage of the situation.
That's how the Prince of Yueqing wanted to use him back then. He could just use his own methods to get back at the king and restore his identity at the same time.
It seems that the plan needs to be changed now. We need to find another suitable time to restore our identity, preferably after the death of Prince Yueqing, so that there will be no evidence.
By then, even if the emperor doubted the truth of his words, he would have no definite evidence.
…
The next day.
Civil and military officials and several princes gathered in the Golden Palace, and everyone was whispering about the Prince of Yueqing.
After the emperor carried Yu Yiluo into the Golden Palace, everyone stopped talking, straightened their court robes, and knelt down to salute.
"Everyone, get up."
The emperor sat on the dragon throne, glanced at the ministers below, and finally his eyes fell on Lord Du.
"Master Du, have someone bring in Prince Yueqing."
Soon, Prince Yueqing was brought in.
He shook off the guard who was pulling him, and looked at the emperor sitting on the dragon throne with a mocking expression. The gentleness he had pretended in the past was gone.
"Brother Emperor, I have already warned you. Do you really still want to disobey our father's will?"
Yu Yiluo looked at the entrance of the palace and complained in his heart.
[The Prince of Yueqing has appeared, why hasn't Prince Duan appeared yet? Doesn't he want to restore his status?]
[This shouldn't be the case. Today is such a great opportunity. I can both restore my identity and witness the death of the King of Yueqing.]
Several people who heard this voice at the same time were extremely surprised.
Prince Duan and several other princes planned to rebel, but the conspiracy was exposed and they were ordered to be executed by the late emperor. How could he still be alive?
The Fourth Prince was originally a little sleepy, but his sleepiness was awakened when he heard Yu Yiluo's inner voice.
He raised his hand to cover his mouth and yawned, looking at the Third Prince standing next to him, eager to tell him what he knew.
After thinking about it, the Fourth Prince gave up the idea. This was a secret between him and Luo'er and could not be told.
The few people who were shocked by Yu Yiluo's inner voice finally came to their senses, and Yu Yiluo's inner voice sounded again.
[Could it be that he lost his way after not returning to the palace for too long, or perhaps he overslept?]
[It seems like it started a little early. If it weren't for the Tyrant, I'd probably still be fast asleep.]
emperor:"……"
[Logically, Prince Duan should now appear, blame the rebellion on Prince Yueqing, and then restore his status.]
The ministers below were a little confused when they saw that the emperor did not speak for a long time.
Did the Emperor regret it? What's the point of having a will to interrogate him?
"Yes, I did lock Yao Xuan up, but that's because she has mental problems. I don't need you, my royal brother, to interfere in my family affairs."
Prince Yueqing kept silent as he thought the emperor had no rebuttal, and the word "smug" was almost written on his face.
[Stupid, you better tell me now, or you won't have the chance to tell me later.]
[You're still so rampant even though you have nowhere else to go.]
【It seems that there is still a way out. 】
The people who heard the inner voice became alert. Could it be that someone else came to the Golden Palace to rescue Prince Yueqing?
Then Yu Yiluo blurted out a sentence.
【Hehe, there's still a dead end. 】
emperor:"……"
Several princes: "..."
"You instigated Yao Kang to rebel. Is this considered your family affair?"
The Emperor glared at Prince Yueqing and said, "The will was not written for you to use so recklessly to kill people."
Prince Yueqing looked at the ministers around him who were silent, and he wished he could go up and pry open their mouths.
These people don't care about the imperial will or the like. He said that since he has the imperial will in his hand, they shouldn't advise the emperor to think twice. Why are they all silent?
The ministers did have this idea in their minds, but they did not dare to persuade him.
The emperor was determined to do what he wanted to do, and it was useless for them to persuade him.
They had already experienced the emperor's stubbornness in the matter of assessment, and now they didn't want to experience it again and cause themselves trouble.
It doesn't matter what the Prince of Yueqing and the Emperor do, they can just watch from the sidelines.
"Isn't Yao Xuan still alive?" Prince Yueqing sneered, "I don't take human life lightly. But you are the emperor, so naturally what you say is what you mean."
The emperor raised his eyebrows and ignored him, "Bring the person up here."
"Your Majesty, you must save me. It was you who ordered me to kill the mayor of Changshan County and take away the silver allocated by the emperor."
The two men knelt on the ground and cried as they were brought in.
Prince Yueqing's expression changed. "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Your Highness," the two men tugged at the hem of his robe again, "I was trying to follow your instructions, but the murder of the magistrate and the silver were not mine."
When they arrived, someone had already done everything, but no matter how they said that the matter had nothing to do with them, the Third Prince and General Jin did not believe them.
Upon hearing this, the ministers who were originally watching looked at Prince Yueqing.
Why is the Changshan County case involved again? No wonder the emperor is not in a hurry to mention the matter over there. It turns out they can be tried together.
"This king does not know you."
Prince Yueqing did not expect that the two men were so spineless that they denied everything he had told them.
"Your Majesty, everything we said is true."
The two men knelt on the ground and kowtowed continuously.
