When the prince found out that Emperor Gan had heard his mumbling, he was so frightened that he fell to his knees with a thud.
Seeing this, Long Musi lowered his head and curled the corners of his mouth. He didn't expect that the prince would be as supportive as ever. It seemed that the pressure on him would be much less in the future.
"Boss, you are so cruel, you really make me proud!" Emperor Gan stood up angrily, walked to the prince, and kicked him.
He had always known about the rumors inside and outside the palace, saying that the third son might not be his son, but in order to give the third son more experience, he turned a blind eye.
He didn't expect that his acquiescence would actually embolden these people. Now the prince even dared to say such words in front of him. It was really inappropriate.
"Your Majesty, I made a mistake in speaking. Please forgive me." The prince knelt on the ground in fear and trepidation, not even daring to raise his head.
"It was a slip of the tongue. Why do I feel that you are sincere?" Emperor Gan squatted in front of the prince and looked at his panic-stricken look.
"Father, Father, I really just made a slip of the tongue." The prince looked up secretly, and when he looked up, he saw Emperor Gan squatting in front of him. He was so scared that he fell to the ground.
He had never imagined that Emperor Gan, who had always stood and looked down at him, would one day squat in front of him and look at him.
When Emperor Gan saw the prince like this, there was great disappointment in his eyes. He had originally thought that no matter how bad the prince was, he was still his eldest son, born to the Empress Dowager.
Sooner or later he would become a qualified crown prince, and he personally selected two excellent whetstones for the prince, but he didn't expect that the result would be like this.
The two whetstones were excellent, but the prince, who was the knife, didn't shine at all.
I originally thought that the prince was just trying to hold back and pretend to be stupid, but after repeated inquiries, I discovered that the prince was truly useless.
"If you want to sit firmly on the throne of the crown prince, you need to be strong yourself." Emperor Gan patted the crown prince's face with his hand, sighing.
When the prince heard what Emperor Gan said, he seemed to be thinking about something, then he quickly stood up and knelt in front of Emperor Gan again.
"Your son will follow the teachings of the emperor, father." The prince bowed and glanced at Emperor Gan's expression.
"Hmph, you're useless! Get out of here!" Emperor Gan's face twitched when he saw the prince's sneaky behavior, and he waved his hand at the prince in annoyance.
"Yes, I'll take my leave." The prince was delighted when he saw Emperor Gan let him go, but he became obedient again when he saw Emperor Gan's face darken.
Long Musi glanced at the prince with a half-smile. Seeing his useless look, sometimes he really didn't understand why his father wanted to hand over the throne to the prince.
Is it just because of the title of eldest son? Or is it because of the Nan family's great power?
"Instead of making fun of the crown prince, it is better for him to reflect on himself." Emperor Gan's words rang faintly beside Long Musi.
When Long Musi heard what Emperor Gan said, his body stiffened. He withdrew his gaze from the prince's back and looked at the floor in front of him again.
Emperor Gan felt somewhat uncomfortable when he saw Long Muse like this. He didn't expect that Long Muse had no reaction at all to what the prince had just said.
For a moment, Emperor Gan didn't know whether to feel relieved or angry.
Just when the atmosphere between Emperor Gan and Long Musi was cooling down, Eunuch Quan came over to Emperor Gan and whispered a few words.
After listening to this, Emperor Gan nodded to Eunuch Quan and turned his gaze back to Long Musi.
"The second brother is useless, and the crown prince is still a fool. Third brother, you have to work hard." Emperor Gan's eyes were deep, and there was a hint of complexity on his face.
When Long Musi heard what Emperor Gan said, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes. It sounded as if these words were meant for him, but it would be great if it was really like that.
"Your Majesty, you are joking. The Crown Prince is the heir apparent, and your brother was just confused for a moment. Your son and I will definitely assist the Crown Prince wholeheartedly in the future." Long Musi kowtowed respectfully to Emperor Gan.
"Well, go down." When Emperor Gan heard what Long Musi said, there was no reaction on his face, he just nodded.
Some things only need to be mentioned briefly. How much Long Musi can understand is his son's own business, and it is not his business to interfere.
"Yes, your son will take his leave." When Long Musi heard what Emperor Gan said, a hint of sarcasm flashed in his eyes, then he bowed, stood up and left.
As a father, he is truly worthy of being an emperor. Even for his own children, he would give them one plan after another.
It seems that if he had directly expressed his agreement to his father with joy just now, the result would not have been very good, especially now.
The Crown Prince and his second brother would definitely be punished, but in the end, he was the only one who escaped unscathed among the three.
Emperor Gan saw that Long Musi's figure finally faded out of his sight, sighed, and sat on the railing beside him.
"Hey, your majesty, please be careful of your body." Seeing that Emperor Gan was so careless, Eunuch Quan quickly stepped forward and supported Emperor Gan.
If he fell backwards, Emperor Gan would definitely fall into the lake, and then there would be chaos.
"You're the only one making such a fuss." Emperor Gan snorted in displeasure, but he didn't push Eunuch Quan away. "Big Companion, you're still too honest, unlike that old bastard Xu Li who flatters."
"If it were that old bastard, he would definitely sit on the railing with me and even praise me for being in a good mood." Emperor Gan scolded with a smile.
Xu Li must have some extraordinary qualities to be able to gain his special favor. Even Emperor Gan himself sometimes felt very comfortable even though he knew Xu Li was just flattering him.
Especially, every time the old bastard gets in the mood, he has more fun than me, so I have to be careful every time, lest this old bastard kills me.
Then he would have to collect the old bastard's body and then be scolded endlessly by those censors.
"Your Majesty is right. Prime Minister Xu certainly knows what Your Majesty is thinking. Every time Prime Minister Xu is here, Your Majesty can't stop smiling." Seeing that Emperor Gan was happy, Eunuch Quan also boldly teased Emperor Gan.
Although the words were a bit presumptuous, they were true, not to mention that Emperor Gan was in a good mood right now.
"Otomo, you old fellow, you also know how to tease me." Emperor Gan laughed out loud.
But as he laughed, tears began to flow from the corners of Emperor Gan's eyes. This was the person who won his heart deeply, yet was still willing to serve the country and the people. But in the end, he personally ordered the massacre of the entire clan.
He is truly an absolute tyrant, and he is not worthy of the loyalty of that old bastard Xu Li.
"My dear friend, I regret it. I really regret it." Emperor Gan smiled and turned to look at Eunuch Quan, his face already covered with tears.
