Chapter 258: Zong Yuancheng, I can’t laugh anymore
Looking for Ji Chenchuan?
Zong Yuancheng yawned.
He didn't want to, but he couldn't persuade his mother, so he had to go.
Just as I found it, I saw this scene again.
"...What did you say? You want to plead for the eunuch's nine clans? Ji Chenchuan, do you know what you are talking about?"
The emperor was furious, and he was frightened when he heard it. Even Eunuch Lin beside him did not dare to step forward.
Ji Chenchuan said, "What he did has nothing to do with his nine clans."
"What do you mean by irrelevant? He dared to kill the guards around the Crown Prince right under my nose? How could I forgive him?"
Things have come to this point, Zong Yuancheng thought, he should shut up this time, after all, his father has said it, he is very angry.
But to his surprise, Ji Chenchuan not only did not stop, but asked a question in return.
"So, Your Majesty, do you think that your anger will cost the lives of your entire clan?"
Everyone gasped.
Eunuch Lin was so frightened that he quickly grabbed Ji Chenchuan and said, "Prince, please stop talking."
Not only did Ji Chenchuan say the same thing, he also added something else that was terrifying.
"Then Your Majesty, what is the difference between you and the Crown Prince?"
The prince caused the death of guard Liu because of his momentary desire for food, but what about him? Didn’t he also take the lives of nine generations of the other family because of his momentary anger?
What are the Nine Clans?
That is, for a person with the same surname, nine generations from the oldest to the youngest will all die, even the women who married out, their children, and the children of their children will all die.
These are the nine clans.
In other words, this lineage is completely gone.
Huang Ligou was already disgusting and deserved to die. Was his entire clan going to be wiped out because of this unlucky rat?
Among them, there are good, talented, and capable ones. Perhaps they are about to start their new careers and usher in a new life and happy moments. But are they all going to die just because of a person they have never met or even knew existed?
So is this fair to them?
"you?"
The emperor glared at the handsome young man in front of him, who was taller than him and had a sharp gaze.
Ji Chenchuan did not avoid it and let him see it generously.
The air became quiet again and the atmosphere became depressing again.
No one dared to move, and even their breathing became cautious.
They understood that whether Ji Chenchuan lived or died, and what the emperor would do next, all depended on this.
"Xiaochuan, you are still the same as when you were a child, very stubborn."
The emperor finally softened, and everyone could finally breathe freely after hearing this.
Good, good, Prince Ji’s life is saved.
Eunuch Lin secretly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
Zong Yuancheng's eyes flashed slightly, but he didn't say much.
"Oh, you kid, are you really not afraid of death?"
"Your Majesty, I am afraid, very afraid."
"Then why do you still want to go against me?"
"Because I know better than anyone that you are a wise ruler."
this?
The emperor's mouth twitched and he was speechless.
He didn't know how to respond to his words. What he meant was that if he really killed Huang Ligou's nine clans, he would be a tyrant?
"Xiaochuan, has anyone ever told you that you have a poisonous tongue?"
Ji Chenchuan raised his eyebrows. No, others only said that he had a sweet mouth, as if it was covered with honey. However, Lin Qingjun did say that he was very irritating.
"Alright, I'll do as you say. I can spare the nine clans, but not his parents. Don't try to beg for mercy anymore. This is my bottom line."
Others may not have to die, but those who gave birth to him and raised him must die, because Huang Ligou has offended his reputation, and he cannot be forgiven by just killing one person.
Ji Chenchuan didn't say anything.
Huang Ligou's parents may be good people, and what he did has nothing to do with them, but this is the world of imperial power, and the reality is cruel.
After giving the order, the emperor waved goodbye and left.
Eunuch Lin followed closely behind, but he turned around and glanced at the handsome man standing under the moonlight, who looked like an immortal, with a slight glint in his eyes.
No one in this world has ever changed the emperor's mind, not even the old master of the Ji Mansion. But he did it? It seems that he will have to respect this Prince Ji even more in the future.
"Come out."
Ji Chenchuan casually found a place to sit down.
This night was really tiring.
Zong Yuancheng walked out from the darkness uncomfortably. He sat opposite him without any image, with a frivolous look on his face.
"Oh, we've been discovered? However, it wasn't me who came here, it was my mother who asked me to come and take a look."
"Ji Chenchuan, do you know something? Tell me quickly, we have such a good relationship."
Ji Chenchuan curled his lips into a smile, which didn't reach his eyes, but was also very meaningful.
"Eleventh Prince, didn't you hear everything just now? You are so smart, why are you still asking me?"
Zong Yuancheng jumped up and down, "Who said I'm smart? Mother always said I was stupid and lazy."
Ji Chenchuan chuckled, "You can hide it from others, but you can also hide it from me? Eleventh Prince, don't say that you didn't do anything about the Crown Prince falling into the water? Not to mention, you haven't met Guard Li, and you didn't tell him this method?"
Zong Yuancheng.
I can't laugh anymore.
Ji Chenchuan sneered, "Guard Li is just a small guard. He wants to avenge Guard Liu, and he has many ways to do it. However, he has not taken any action in the past six years. This is not because the prince is too well protected, but because someone is suppressing him. Am I right?"
"Tsk tsk, this Guard Li, he's been used for six years, used as a pawn for six years and he doesn't even realize it?"
"The Crown Prince is also like this. He didn't even know about the guards who have been lurking around him for six years? Tell me, are they stupid? Or is the person who set up this trap too clever?"
"Noble Concubine Ning always thought that her son was hopeless. She had been meticulously paving the way for her son, but little did she know that her son was the one who hid the most."
Every word left Zong Yuancheng speechless.
Yes, who would have thought that the prince who was called a playboy was actually such a cunning man?
The night wind blows.
Lift up their clothes.
The two men sat opposite each other, neither of them spoke.
After a long time, Zong Yuancheng restrained his laziness and revealed his original sharpness.
"When did you find out?"
Ji Chenchuan shook his head and said, "I've always known this, not because I've discovered something, but because I know that anyone who comes out of the palace is not simple and cannot be underestimated."
Zong Yuancheng smiled bitterly, "So, when you were five years old and saw me for the first time, you knew my personality? Before you realized it, you had already decided that I was not simple?"
Zong Yuancheng thought that he had not done well enough and was exposed, but it turned out that it was not that he was exposed, but that he had never been a simple person in Ji Chenchuan's eyes?
Well, what can he say?
but.
"What do you want?"
Now that everything has been revealed and Ji Chenchuan knows his true identity, what does he want now to shut him up and prevent his secrets from being leaked?
