"Whether Your Majesty is truly angry or not, why should I kneel?" Xu Tianze slowly swallowed the food in his mouth and then looked at Emperor Gan. "Besides, didn't Your Majesty just tell me that?"
"What did you say?" Emperor Gan took over Xu Tianze's words. He really met Xu Tianze once, and Xu Tianze gave him a surprise.
With the blood of Old Man Song, he should be good at martial arts. He grew up under the education of that old bastard Xu Li, so his strategy must be good. He can be considered a promising talent.
"Didn't Your Majesty just say that there is no need to bow, so there is no need to bow?" After Xu Tianze said this, he picked up another dish with chopsticks and was not moved at all.
Xu Tianze sighed silently in his heart. It seemed that his sense of taste really had no feeling at all. These delicious dishes tasted like chewing wax.
As for Emperor Gan's questions, Xu Tianze was not afraid at all. Maybe he would panic before facing them, but when he was in the situation, he became calmer.
Although Emperor Gan slammed the table, there was no anger on his face. It was just that the emperor's emotions were often accompanied by rewards and punishments, and people could lose their heads if they were not careful.
That's why everyone is so sensitive. Serving the king is like serving a tiger, but this is not just a saying.
"Hmph, you're such a smooth talker." Emperor Gan snorted in annoyance, but he put the dish that Xu Tianze had picked up with his chopsticks in front of him.
"Get up, everyone." Emperor Gan looked at his three sons who were still kneeling on the ground, took a closer look at the second prince, and then asked them to stand up with a lack of interest.
The three princes looked up and saw that Emperor Gan's face had returned to expressionless state, then they stood up and sat back on the chairs.
After the scene ended, Emperor Gan was the first to pick up his chopsticks and start eating, and the other princes also prepared to continue eating.
The attendants who followed the surrounding princes wanted to come forward to serve food to their master, but were stopped by Eunuch Quan with a wave of his hand.
"One by one, you haven't learned much about the rules, but you have learned how to enjoy life." Emperor Gan mocked his son, and then looked at Xu Tianze who was leisurely picking up dishes without any reaction.
"Xu Tianze, among these three, which one do you think is the best?" Emperor Gan looked at Xu Tianze with a dim light in his eyes.
As soon as Emperor Gan said this, the three princes paused, then looked up at Xu Tianze, waiting for Xu Tianze to speak.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince has been rumored to have had an affair in the Third Prince's mansion, which has tarnished his life." Xu Tianze glanced at the Crown Prince and pointed it out without any hesitation.
As soon as these words were spoken, the prince's face turned gloomy and he silently stuffed another mouthful of food into his mouth.
"Hmph, you're such an idiot. You've wasted the crown prince position I gave you." Emperor Gan looked at the prince with disdain, feeling deeply that it was not worth it for him to establish the prince in the first place.
"What about the other two?" Emperor Gan looked at Xu Tianze with amusement in his eyes.
You have to know that these two have a closer relationship with Xu Tianze. If Xu Tianze's evaluation is biased, there will be trouble later.
When Xu Tianze heard what Emperor Gan said, his eyelids twitched. He looked at Emperor Gan's somewhat gloating expression and felt helpless.
Without even turning his head, Xu Tianze knew that Long Muse and the Second Prince were definitely staring at him intently, waiting for his evaluation of them.
"The Third Prince has treated me very well. From leaving Shangjing City to the Xu family's turnaround, I can say that if it weren't for the Third Prince, I wouldn't have been able to get this far." Xu Tianze objectively evaluated the situation between himself and Long Musi.
He naturally understood his own strengths and weaknesses. It could be said that from the beginning to the end, Long Muse had given him great convenience, but in the end, the two people's paths and ideals diverged.
When Long Musi heard Xu Tianze's words, he looked at the second prince proudly. He knew that he looked different in front of Aze, and he definitely occupied a certain position in Aze's heart.
When the second prince heard Xu Tianze's words, he just lowered his head, but did not show any inappropriate behavior.
"Oh?" Emperor Gan looked at the Second Prince meaningfully, then glanced at Long Musi who was a little too proud of himself.
"What about my second son?" When Emperor Gan continued to ask Xu Tianze this time, his face was expressionless.
Emperor Gan really had no interest in Xu Tianze's words of trying to mediate. He wanted to make the two of them unhappy, but he didn't come here to listen to Xu Tianze's words of trying to mediate.
"Second Prince?" After hearing Emperor Gan's words, Xu Tianze turned to look at the Second Prince who lowered his head and gently patted his shoulder.
The second prince felt Xu Tianze's movements, raised his head and looked at Xu Tianze in a daze. Although there was no expression on his face, his eyes were already a little red.
Xu Tianze smiled at the Second Prince to show his comfort, then turned to look at Emperor Gan: "Your Majesty, I never comment on the good or bad of the people I like."
As soon as Xu Tianze said this, the prince was so shocked that he forgot to continue chewing the food in his mouth, and the bowl in Long Musi's hand fell directly to the ground.
As the other protagonist in the conversation, the second prince had a look of shock in his eyes when he heard Xu Tianze's words, and then he hurried to observe his father's reaction.
When Emperor Gan heard what Xu Tianze said, although he already knew it from the beginning, he was still a little shocked when it was said directly to him.
"Jiang'er, do you know what he just said?" Emperor Gan turned his head to look at the second prince and had no intention of paying attention to Xu Tianze.
"Your Majesty, I know. I also have this intention." The second prince kowtowed to Emperor Gan, and when he raised his head again, there was determination in his eyes.
Xu Tianze had already said it, so he naturally would not back down.
Emperor Gan looked at Xu Tianze without any expression of anger. After all, if it really happened because of something like this, he would beat the Second Prince and Xu Tianze to death.
I think the two of them would not have lived under my nose for so long. It’s just that private matters are private, and it’s different when they are brought to the surface.
"The royal family cannot have such scandals. Aren't you afraid that I will execute you secretly?" Emperor Gan gestured to the guards beside him and drew his sword.
Then he put the knife on Xu Tianze's shoulder, wanting to see Xu Tianze's reaction.
"Father!" ×2
Long Musi and the second prince quickly knelt on the ground and moved towards Emperor Gan. In the silence, there was only the sound of clothes rubbing against the ground.
"Your Majesty, of course not. After all, I am still of some use, right?" Xu Tianze cupped his hands, without a trace of fear or panic on his face.
After all, the chess game set up by Emperor Gan, the old Duke Zhenguo, and Xu Li still requires him as a crucial chess piece to operate.
"Have you figured it out?" Emperor Gan narrowed his eyes, raised the sword in his hand, and looked at it in front of his eyes.
