"A rebellion?"
This thought popped up in Wei Xiuyuan's mind.
But he quickly dismissed the idea, thinking the time was not yet ripe.
If the Tianlong Empire collapses, or if a special situation arises, such as discovering that the prince is a woman, his subordinates will support his rebellion.
It is difficult for the generals and soldiers to accept that he would lead a rebellion now.
"Looks like we have to go to Shengjing City."
Wei Xiuyuan thought to himself.
Of course he went to Shengjing City not to confess, but to file a complaint!
Before the news reached Shengjing City, he directly complained to Qin Zhentian, saying that other people had spread rumors and framed him.
It would be too passive for him to explain after the news got through. It would be better for him to turn passivity into initiative and file a complaint directly to the emperor.
"Father, are you going to Shengjing City?"
"Father, this is unnecessary. It's just a rumor. There are so many rumors out there. It's not worth your trip."
Wei Xiuyuan called over several of his sons.
Of course, these sons were not his biological children, but Wei Xiuyuan's.
The real Wei Xiuyuan died long ago.
"This time is different."
Wei Xiuyuan shook his head. "The guy who framed my father was very cunning. He chose a good time. The rumor will definitely spread widely."
"The rumors have spread like wildfire. I, your father, will definitely have to explain myself before His Majesty."
"Don't worry, everything will be fine. This couldn't have been done by Your Majesty. I'm afraid Your Majesty will have to treat me to a jar of good wine."
Wei Xiuyuan's sons nodded.
Soon Wei Xiuyuan left with a few personal guards. He was a powerful warrior at the level of a Martial Emperor, and it would not take him long to travel from his fiefdom to Shengjing City.
A few hours later, Wei Xiuyuan arrived in Shengjing City.
He went to the palace immediately.
"Your Majesty, Prince Wei requests an audience."
An old eunuch came up to Qin Zhentian and said respectfully.
Qin Zhentian's eyes flashed. What was Wei Xiuyuan doing here? Xiao Fan had said that Wei Xiuyuan might be a demon.
After confirming that Tiger General Xie Wenzhong was a demon, Qin Zhentian believed what Xiao Fan said even more.
All those that Xiao Fan said were demons, none of them were wrong so far!
"Please invite Prince Wei in."
Qin Zhentian spoke.
Wei Xiuyuan quickly came in front of Qin Zhentian and knelt down.
"Prince Wei, what are you doing?"
Qin Zhentian said in surprise.
Wei Xiuyuan is a prince, so he doesn't need to kneel even in formal occasions. He just needs to bow and salute. Now it is an informal occasion.
"Your Majesty, someone has slandered and framed me."
"I beg Your Majesty to grant me justice."
Wei Xiuyuan said angrily.
Qin Zhentian asked doubtfully, "Prince Wei, I haven't received any news that anyone has slandered you. What did they slander you about?"
Wei Xiuyuan said angrily, "Your Majesty, someone has slandered me as a demon."
"ah?"
Qin Zhentian was stunned for a moment.
Did Qin Xuan or Jiang Gan spread the news?
It is impossible for Xiao Fan to spread the news.
He had hypnotized Xiao Fan, and he believed that Xiao Fan would definitely not leak the information.
"Your Majesty, the bastard who slandered me also said that I attacked the Crown Princess. This news has spread throughout my fiefdom."
Qin Zhentian immediately understood that it was not Qin Xuan or Jiang Gan who leaked the news. It was most likely that someone deliberately spread the rumor.
Of course, this rumor is half true.
Wei Xiuyuan might really be a demon!
"Prince Wei, please stop being so rude. I see you've come all the way to Shengjing just to get my good wine."
Qin Zhentian said unhappily.
Wei Xiuyuan's expression changed in an instant. He chuckled and said, "Your Majesty, you have a keen eye. Your collection of spiritual wine is indeed quite good."
"With my cultivation level, it's difficult for me to get drunk with ordinary spirit wine. Your Majesty, if I drink a jar of your spirit wine, I'm sure I'll be completely drunk."
Having said this, Wei Xiuyuan stood up.
Qin Zhentian glared and said, "You still want to drink another jar? You wish. I don't have much wine left. Don't have such a big appetite."
"Your Majesty, half a jar is enough, right?"
"I have suffered a great injustice, and it is difficult to find out who framed me. I must drink more wine."
Wei Xiuyuan smiled awkwardly.
Qin Zhentian shook his head helplessly: "The news hasn't even come through yet, and you're already here. Do you think you need to do this?"
"There is still some trust between us."
Wei Xiuyuan coughed lightly and said, "Your Majesty, you trust me, but there are always villains who spread rumors in the court."
"Besides, this matter also involves the Crown Princess. I must go to the Crown Prince's Mansion and General Jiang to explain the matter."
Qin Zhentian waved his hand: "Forget it, you are a prince after all. How can you come to my house to explain yourself just because of a rumor?"
"I'll call the Crown Prince and General Jiang over to have a few drinks together tonight."
Wei Xiuyuan smiled and said, "That's very good. Your Majesty, Xiao Shidu is an excellent zither player. Could you please have him come over and play a piece for you?"
Qin Zhentian raised his eyebrows slightly.
Even if Wei Xiuyuan didn't say it, he would let Xiao Fan enter the palace to play. It would be better to confirm once again whether Wei Xiuyuan was a demon.
——It turned out that Xiao Fan discovered that Wei Xiuyuan was a demon during Qin Yuan’s funeral. There were many people there at that time, and the atmosphere might have been very mixed.
In the evening, Xiao Fan followed Qin Xuan into the palace.
"Your son greets His Majesty."
"Your humble servant greets Your Majesty, Prince Wei, and General Jiang."
Qin Xuan and Xiao Fan arrived at a warm room in the palace.
The warm rooms in ordinary people's homes are relatively small, but the warm rooms in the palace are not small. It is nice to eat in the warm room in winter when there are few people.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince."
Wei Xiuyuan and Jiang Gan also stood up and saluted.
