When Zhao Beicheng was brought before Emperor Xianzong, Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang also brought Yu Ziming to the Mingguang Palace.
All the palace maids and eunuchs in the Minguang Hall were sent to the Ministry of Punishment by Emperor Xianzong because they had lost their master. All the people serving in the Minguang Hall at this moment were those who used to serve Emperor Xianzong.
When Yu Ziming looked at the people around him, he didn't recognize any of them, so he clung to Gu Xinglang and refused to let go.
"This kid seems to like you very much," Yu Xiaoxiao said to Gu Xinglang.
Gu Xinglang looked at the Sixth Prince, who was skinny and small, but had a big head, and said, "Your Highness is too young. Is it really okay for him to go to the Sun Execution like this?"
"All of you get out," Xiao Wei turned around and ordered the palace servants and eunuchs who were serving nearby without waiting for Yu Xiaoxiao to speak.
The palace maids and eunuchs saw that Yu Xiaoxiao did not respond to Xiao Wei's words, which meant she agreed, so a dozen or so palace maids and eunuchs hurriedly retreated.
Xiao Zhuang whispered, "The eldest prince is only eleven years old, and the other princes are not that old."
Yu Xiao: "What's wrong with being small? Everyone will grow up one day."
Xiao Wei looked at Xiao Zhuang like a traitor and said, "Are you sympathizing with the Sixth Prince?"
Xiaozhuang looked at Xinglang, which meant that this person was the first to sympathize with the Sixth Prince.
"We are incompetent," Gu Xinglang raised his hand and touched Yu Ziming's head, whispering, "If we can keep Fengtian safe, why would His Majesty send the Sixth Prince to be executed?"
"The guy in the building is going to kill you, but you're still thinking about him?" Yu Xiaoxiao was shocked. What kind of feeling was this? She really didn't understand.
"The emperor was simply deceived by treacherous ministers," Gu Xinglang told Yu Xiao word by word.
Yu Xiaoxiao scratched her head. If the emperor had a little intelligence, could he be deceived by the treacherous ministers? "What you said is not right, you..."
"Princess, here are some pine nuts," Xiao Wei interrupted Yu Xiaoxiao, ran to a coffee table, brought a plate of pine nuts, and said to Yu Xiaoxiao: "Princess, have some pine nuts."
Yu Xiaoxiao could recognize that this was a type of dried fruit, but she had never eaten it before. Her attention was instantly diverted, and she asked, "Is this delicious?"
Xiao Wei pulled Xiao Zhuang to eat with Yu Xiao Xiao, and considerately handed the plate of pine nuts to Gu Xinglang. They should eat more and talk less. These two masters may not be able to talk about the same things in daily life. Talking about family, country and the world? Xiao Wei shook his head. Why should people make things difficult for themselves?
Gu Xinglang peeled pine nuts for Yu Xiaoxiao and asked her, "How did you get to the Zhao residence?"
Yu Xiaoxiao savored the flavor of the pine nuts. She had heard that dried fruits are rich in carbohydrates, vitamins, and trace elements. Even though they were so small, they tasted really delicious when eaten.
"Princess?" Gu Xinglang handed a few more peeled pine nuts to Yu Xiaoxiao's hand.
Yu Xiao: "Xiao Liu wants to go play with his cousin."
Gu Xinglang, Xiaozhuang and Xiaowei had nothing to say. Why did they feel wronged by the beating Zhao Beicheng received?
Zhao Beicheng was in the reading pavilion at this time, and he said to Emperor Xianzong: "Your Highness Princess brought Your Highness Sixth Prince to the back garden, and wanted to play with my son."
Gu Xingnuo felt that this might be the truth.
Xianzong was furious again and asked, "You said it was Linglong who brought Ziming to your house?"
Zhao Beicheng said, "Yes, I saw with my own eyes Her Royal Highness the Princess and His Highness the Sixth Prince walking in the back garden of the mansion."
"Evil son!" Zhao Qiu Ming thought it would be best if his son died, so he tried to use suicide to soften Emperor Xianzong's heart, but this bastard came to add fuel to the fire!
Zhao Beicheng said, "Father, what happened? Didn't His Majesty take the Princess and the Sixth Prince to the palace? Why did Luo Yangling want to arrest us?"
Xianzong was furious. How could this false accusation be directed at him? !
Zhao Qiuming was dumbfounded. His son was so stupid as to blame the emperor for his mistakes? When did the emperor go to Zhao's house?
Gu Xingnuo said from the side: "Young Master Zhao is really good at joking. The emperor has been in the palace all the time."
Zhao Beicheng felt that his brain was a little confused. If it wasn't Emperor Xianzong, then who brought the princess and his nephew to the Zhao Mansion?
Zhao Qiu Ming got up from the ground, ran to his son, slapped him hard, and said, "You bastard!"
Zhao Beicheng was beaten by his father until his lips were broken and bleeding. He covered his cheek and said, "What did I do wrong?"
Zhao Qiu Ming's hand hurt from hitting him, and he shouted to his son, "You bastard, you are so bold that you secretly took the Sixth Prince out of the palace. You damned bastard! How could you have such a thought?"
What? Young Master Zhao was shocked. Was he the one who took the Sixth Prince out of the palace?
"Your Majesty," Zhao Qiu Ming turned around and knelt down before Emperor Xianzong again, saying, "It is my fault for failing to teach my son. I shall be punished by death!"
Zhao Beicheng looked up at Gu Xingnuo.
Gu Xingnuo looked at Zhao Beicheng with cold eyes and said, "Young Master Zhao is indeed very skilled in martial arts, as he was able to take the Sixth Prince away from the Imperial Palace without permission."
“I, you…”
"Master Zhao," said Master Gu, "The Prime Minister has already pleaded guilty, what are you still trying to argue about?"
Zhao Beicheng stuttered for a long time, then suddenly came to his senses, rushed in front of Emperor Xianzong, and said, "Your Majesty, I did not take the Sixth Prince out of the palace privately!"
Xianzong asked, "How did the Sixth Prince get to the Zhao Mansion? Can my Sixth Prince fly by himself?"
Zhao Beicheng pointed at Gu Xingnuo and said, "It must be the Gu family that harmed our Zhao family!"
Gu Xingnuo looked at Zhao Beicheng with pity. Gu Xinglang fell into the hands of such a guy. Young Master Gu really felt sorry for his little brother.
Zhao Beicheng thought about it, and then said to Emperor Xianzong: "Your Majesty, it must be the princess. It must be Her Royal Highness the Princess who took the Sixth Prince out of the palace." Yu Linglong was trying to frame the Zhao family. Zhao Beicheng turned around and said to Zhao Qiuming anxiously: "Father, I really saw that it was Her Royal Highness the Princess who brought the Sixth Prince into the palace."
Gu Xingnuo said, "Mr. Zhao reeks of alcohol, are you trying to get drunk on purpose?"
"Gu Xingnuo!" Zhao Beicheng looked at Young Master Gu and gritted his teeth.
Gu Xingnuo knelt down in front of Emperor Xianzong and said loudly, "Your Majesty, the princess went to the Zhao Mansion just because she heard that the Sixth Prince was missing."
"You're talking nonsense!" Zhao Beicheng wanted to fight with Gu Xingnuo.
"Your Majesty, the Sixth Prince saved the Seventh Prince, and the Princess is grateful to the Sixth Prince," Gu Xingnuo said to Emperor Xianzong, "How could she do such a thing as secretly taking the Sixth Prince away from the palace?"
Xianzong could understand what Gu Xingnuo said. If Yu Ziming couldn't go to Zhuri, maybe the person who went to Zhuri would become Yu Ziyi again. Unless Princess Linglong was crazy, how could she let Yu Ziming escape?
"Your Majesty, it's really the princess..."
"Shut up!" Emperor Xianzong shouted at Zhao Beicheng, "You're still pushing the blame on my daughter? Come on, drag this bastard out and beat him up!"
