[If the prince finds evidence, he will surely capture the King of Huainan soon.]
[The evidence proved that the King of Huainan had the intention of rebellion, but he was actually wrongly accused.]
Prince: ???
He doesn't believe it!
[Those evidences were also produced by the real eldest son of the King of Huainan. This guy and his brother switched identities and were sent to Dajing. He must be very angry.]
[Although the crime of deceiving the emperor is punishable by the execution of nine generations of the clan, in fact the old emperor did not really execute all nine generations of the clan, at most he executed three generations of the clan.]
[The real son of the King of Huainan could not swallow this breath, and felt that killing three clans was too easy for his parents, so he gave his parents a big gift, directly punishing the crime of killing nine clans. ]
Prince: ...
After hesitating for a while, he closed his eyes.
After all this time, it turned out that it was the real eldest son who did it.
The son framed the father, he deserved it.
The prince didn't sit in office for long before going back and telling the old emperor about it.
The real eldest son of King Huainan was surprised. He did not expect that the prince was so capable that he knew the whole story so quickly.
The old emperor looked at the Prince of Huainan's true eldest son with dignity without even getting angry.
"You have some skills. You are exactly like your father in cheating on his father."
"Although the King of Huainan has no suspicion of rebellion, he is guilty of deceiving the emperor. Although you have no real intention of rebellion, you are guilty of privately mining iron ore."
The old emperor paused for a moment.
"Considering the contributions and hard work of the King of Huainan over the years, you and your family should pack up and head north."
Although the real eldest son of King Huainan was drunk at the moment, his expression was very clear.
After hearing the old emperor's words, he responded subconsciously.
"Your Majesty, shouldn't you execute all three clans?"
People present: ...
Filial piety, it's really the greatest filial piety.
The real eldest son of King Huainan continued to pluck hair from the tiger's butt.
"Your Majesty, I have the intention to rebel, and you should kill all nine of my clans. However, considering that my father has served as a loyal follower of the emperor, I suggest that you kill only three of my clans."
The prince grabbed the snack from the eunuch next to him and started putting it into his mouth.
Then he whispered in the old emperor's ear: "Dad, it seems that he really wants his entire family to die out. Why don't we help him?"
The old emperor secretly stepped on the prince in annoyance, and then continued to speak to the real son of King Huainan.
"I know you have resentment in your heart."
The old emperor suddenly felt a headache. He wanted to strip Prince Huainan of his military power, but he did not want to kill all of Prince Huainan's family.
In recent years, the King of Huainan has been quite unfriendly to the imperial power, which has caused a thorn in the old emperor's heart.
In an important frontier area, he could only sleep peacefully if he placed someone he could trust in place.
"So I have given you some leniency, don't..."
[Maybe the other party doesn't want you to show any leniency at all. He is now thinking that it would be best if all his family members died. Tsk tsk tsk, I didn't expect that the real eldest son of the King of Huainan is such a shady guy.]
The old emperor glanced outside the palace, wondering when Shen Zhiyi had returned from the Hundred Flowers Banquet.
The eighth princess’ marriage was chosen so quickly?
[The old emperor, who has been an emperor all his life, cares most about his face. ]
[It may not be easy for the real eldest son of the King of Huainan to want his father to die. The King of Huainan was able to become a king of a different surname because he had made great contributions.]
The old emperor and the prince were thinking about it with a headache.
He did make a great contribution, saving his father (grandfather).
[However, in recent years, the King of Huainan only wanted to guard his own piece of land, so he was not very familiar with the old emperor. Hahaha, the other party thought that this was a way to protect himself, but in fact it made the old emperor very unhappy. ]
[What is this called? This is called it is very necessary to flatter the leaders in the officialdom. ]
[So the old emperor just wanted to find a reason to take away the military power of the King of Huainan, but who would have thought that this was a crime of deceiving the emperor, and his merits and demerits were offset, so exiling him to Ningguta was enough. ]
[As a result, there is a filial son in the family. These are all the bad karmas that he has planted. If he really dies, he can't blame the old emperor. ]
The old emperor clapped his hands excitedly.
Yes, he cared too much about the reputation given to him in history books.
But the King of Huainan did make a big mistake.
The crime of deceiving the emperor is worthy of death.
The old emperor, who suddenly realized the truth, ordered the killing of all the direct descendants of the King of Huainan without any hesitation.
The King of Huainan's true eldest son was particularly happy to thank the Lord for his grace.
This happiness comes from the bottom of my heart.
It looks weird no matter how you look at it.
"etc."
When the Eighth Princess was holding up her skirt and preparing to enter the Yanying Palace, she saw Shen Zhiyi standing at the door waiting, and simply pulled her in together.
"Father, you can't kill him."
The old emperor was full of questions.
"Old Eight, stop messing around and go back to see your man."
"This is my man."
The real eldest son of King Huainan looked at the Eighth Princess with confusion and shock.
Shen Zhiyi looked at the Eighth Princess with a look of shock and astonishment.
[What the hell, didn't the Eighth Princess want to try out marriage with the Marquis of Liu'an at the Hundred Flowers Banquet? Why did she suddenly fall in love with the eldest son of the King of Huainan? Could it be that the Eighth Princess wants to have her fill while looking at the pot for excitement? ]
The old emperor was speechless.
The Crown Prince came over and whispered in the Eighth Princess' ear, "Stop messing around. Why don't you apologize to your father?"
"I'm not kidding, father. I've made up my mind. I want him to be my groom!"
【Hahahahahahaha, the groom and the princess, hahahaha. 】
[What about the daughter of the Minister of Rites? You should write a storybook about such good material. The transportation must be well developed. If it is not well developed, I will not read it.]
After Shen Zhiyi finished laughing, he glanced at the real eldest son of King Huainan and commented for a moment.
[Well, his appearance is similar to that of the Sixth Prince Consort. No wonder the Eighth Princess is attracted to him. If he could be her groom, the Eighth Princess might not bother to compete with the Sixth Princess for a man in the future.]
After hearing what Shen Zhiyi said, the old emperor suddenly realized that keeping this kid alive would be beneficial to family harmony.
"Ahem, I think it's not impossible. Among the direct descendants of the King of Huainan, you will be demoted to a commoner, and the rest will be executed in the autumn."
[Hiss, why do I feel that the old emperor is a little too hostile to the King of Huainan? ]
The old emperor stood up from the dragon throne and was about to leave.
[I know, there are other reasons. I thought so.]
【Hahahaha, I didn't expect there would be such a thing. 】
Shen Zhiyi laughed until tears came out, but it made others feel itchy to watch.
The prince came over directly and looked at Shen Zhiyi who was still smiling silently, and he was anxious.
Stop laughing. Stop laughing.
What kind of private affair is going on between his father and the King of Huainan that he doesn't even know about!!!
