He quickly looked at his father and saw that there was no unnecessary expression on his face. He knew that his father was prepared this time and that he was rash this time and should not have been so impatient.
But what's the point of saying all this now? He loses.
"Come here! Capture the emperor and take him to the clan house to await his fate."
As soon as the emperor spoke, the surrounding imperial guards moved instantly, the surrounding soldiers were controlled instantly, and Cheng Xixiang was also captured.
"Father! I know I was wrong. I know I was wrong."
Cheng Xixiang only then realized that begging for mercy, no matter if it was useful or not, as long as he could soften the emperor's heart, he would have a chance to turn the tables. He didn't think he was wrong. As a son of the royal family, the ultimate goal was to get the throne.
As a result, he shouted for a long time, but the emperor didn't say a word, and Cheng Xixiang was dragged away like this.
"Take the Qi envoy away. I need to discuss the compensation for this matter with the Emperor of Qi."
The emperor looked at the Queen of Qi and Jun Chenxi, frowning for a long time before speaking.
"yes!"
The Royal Guards also took the two men away. Before Jun Chenxi left, she kept staring at Li Xiaochen with an expression of disbelief. If you didn't know, you would think that Li Xiaochen was bullying her.
When everything returns to calm, the farce of tonight will be over.
"Okay, all of you have been frightened today, so go back and suppress your fear. There will be no morning court tomorrow, so go home."
The emperor spoke to everyone in a deep voice, but his tone was not as sharp as before.
When the emperor's son was taken away, he was completely devastated. He was not as cold-hearted as he had been before. After all, he was his own son. Even if he had paid little attention to him since he was young, the emperor still felt uncomfortable when the son wanted to usurp his father's throne.
"I'll take my leave!"
"I'll take my leave!"
When the crowd saw this, they also knew that the emperor was in a bad mood, and seeing that there was no danger, they all left.
Lin Yuxin and Zhao Hanya also wanted to say goodbye and leave, but they were seen by the emperor, who interrupted them directly.
"Lin Yuxin, please stay. I have something else to talk to you about. Madam Lin can go back first. I will send someone to send Lin Yuxin back."
The emperor said.
"yes!"
Seeing that the emperor had spoken, Zhao Hanya had no choice but to agree. Before she left, she glanced at Lin Yuxin, reminding her not to say the wrong thing.
Lin Yuxin nodded frantically. She wouldn’t do that. She would be a good boy.
[My mother is gone. I wonder why the emperor kept me here? He wanted to give me some money. If not, that would be a bit too much. I still want to sleep. It's so late. Can't we talk about it tomorrow?]
Lin Yuxin smiled and sent Zhao Hanya away, and immediately complained about the emperor in her heart.
Zhao Hanya, who had just walked out of the hall, almost missed a step and fell, luckily Lin Shixiao reached out to help her!
His sister is too active in her mind, and even he, a grown man, can hardly stand it, let alone his mother.
Next time I have to remind my sister to talk less and do more.
When almost everyone had left, even the empress was sent back to Kunning Palace by the emperor.
"You come with me."
The emperor looked at Lin Yuxin and Li Xiaochen who stayed behind and said.
Then, the two followed the emperor all the way to the imperial study.
After serving the emperor, Eunuch Liu waited on the side. The emperor sat at the desk without saying a word. He looked at the two of them for a long while before speaking:
"Li Xiaochen, tell me about this incident!"
"Your Majesty, I got the news that Jun Chenxi was one of the envoys from Qi this time. I was afraid that the woman would do something weird again, so I went to check it out. As a result, I found that there was indeed a problem, so I took precautions in advance."
Li Xiaochen told the truth respectfully, but he didn't tell Lin Yuxin the part she knew.
"I was saying that you sent a message last night saying that there would be something interesting happening today, so I was careful. I was really careful! But I was surprised. She is so obsessed with you. Wouldn't it be easier if you married her? You are not a child anymore. You should get married and start a family."
The emperor looked at Li Xiaochen with disgust at the end of his speech.
Lin Yuxin also looked at Li Xiaochen with a gossipy expression.
[Yes, yes, you are all old men here, why don’t you get married? ]
"Xiao Chen, tell me honestly, do you dislike women?"
The emperor thought about it and finally asked. After being brainwashed by Lin Yuxin today, he felt that Li Xiaochen might really like boys.
[Wow, even the emperor has started to doubt it, it seems to be true? Li Xiaochen actually has a homosexual fetish? ? Hahaha! ]
Lin Yuxin lowered her head, her shoulders shaking violently.
Emperor: Can you be quieter? I can hear you!
"Your Majesty, I have a crush on someone, and it's not a man!"
Li Xiaochen glared at Lin Yuxin and replied through gritted teeth.
"Oh? Whose money is it? Tell me and I will help you with your advice."
When the emperor heard that Li Xiaochen had a lover, he immediately became excited.
Li Xiaochen is the son of his savior, Li Changyin. When he was in the most difficult times, Li Changyin protected him and accompanied him, acting as both a brother and a father to him.
However, during a fight for the throne, Li Changyin died to save him. At that time, Li Xiaochen was only 18 years old. He watched Li Xiaochen grow up, and later when Li Xiaochen grew up a little, he went straight to join the army.
After five years of great achievements, he lost his whereabouts in a war and was not found until several months later. By then, he was covered in wounds and almost beyond rescue.
After that, for some reason, since he would lose half his life if he got injured, he would not let him go to the war, and against all odds, he was directly appointed as the regent.
Li Xiaochen also competed for favor and helped him deal with many matters in the court, which was very handy for him. He treated Li Xiaochen as his own son.
"That person doesn't know yet. I want to wait!"
Li Xiaochen replied vaguely without saying who it was.
The emperor got angry when he saw him like that.
"I don't care. You are already twenty-five years old. You must find me a wife."
The emperor gave him a final ultimatum.
[This Li Xiaochen likes a woman? ? Am I wrong? But who is so unlucky to be liked by him? That icy face, his words are full of ice, is it because he thinks his life is not long enough! ]
Lin Yuxin watched the conversation between the emperor and Li Xiaochen, and began to complain in her heart again.
Li Xiaochen suddenly knelt on the ground and said to the emperor:
"Your Majesty, I want to ask you, I am indeed old enough, and since I have someone I like, I beg Your Majesty to grant me marriage."
The emperor was a little uncomfortable when he saw Li Xiaochen suddenly asking for permission so sincerely, but he quickly reacted and asked curiously:
"First, tell me which family this girl belongs to."
Seeing Li Xiaochen asking for permission so solemnly, Lin Yuxin became even more curious about whose gold had been chosen by the lively King Yan, and she stared at Li Xiaochen with wide eyes.
Li Xiaochen suddenly raised his head and gave Lin Yuxin a meaningful look, which made Lin Yuxin's hair stand on end, and she immediately had a bad premonition.
Sure enough, Li Xiaochen was heard saying:
"I like Lin Yuxin and Lin Fu's daughter, and I beg the emperor to grant me marriage!"
"what????"
Lin Yuxin really couldn't help herself this time and screamed out, her eyeballs almost popping out.
