Mo Sichen glanced at the man indifferently and said coldly, "Surrender yourself, Your Highness?"
"You're talking nonsense! I didn't do it! I didn't do anything!" The man was immediately excited when he heard that he had surrendered. "I didn't assassinate my father! I'm the crown prince, the future heir to the throne. How could I possibly do something as treasonous as assassinating my father?"
Mo Sichen looked at him with his eyes slightly narrowed, his voice carrying a hint of sarcasm and indifference.
"Oh? Then tell me, why did you disappear from the palace in the middle of the night when the emperor and his entourage left the palace the day before? And why did you appear here in black last night?"
Mo Sichen approached step by step, questioning word by word.
His voice was very cold, so cold that it made people feel like the cold wind was scraping against their bones, as if they would be frozen to death in the next moment.
"I didn't try to assassinate my father. I was just worried about his safety. Who knows..."
"That's enough!"
Prince Mo Sichen actually tried to quibble, so he was scolded immediately.
"Your Highness, I urge you to stop being so stubborn. If you truly didn't do it, then why did those so-called assassins, after a night of heating up, insist that you were the one behind it?"
After saying that, he took something out of his sleeve and threw it in front of him.
It was a parchment scroll, densely covered with the names of the assassins and the blood seals of each person. The most important thing was that there was also Li Yuanche's own personal seal on it.
It can be seen that it was intercepted a long time ago.
Those people were indeed sent by Li Yuanche, but what Li Yuanche didn't expect was that his people were being followed all the way.
And when he just arrived here last night, Mo Sichen sent people to intercept him and knock him unconscious.
Li Yuanche blurted out when he saw the thing in front of him, "How did this thing end up in your hands?"
Seeing this, the old emperor couldn't help but frown. He had always thought that Li Yuanche was an unpromising mediocre person with no ability or ambition.
I never expected that he would do such a heinous thing and even dare to kill the king!
This is simply outrageous!
Li Yuanche really touched his bottom line this time.
"Good for you, Prince!"
The old emperor was furious and picked up the teacup beside him and threw it at Li Yuanche.
Li Yuanche dodged and the teacup fell to the ground with a loud bang, breaking into pieces.
"You rebellious son, how dare you hide?"
Seeing this, the old emperor became even more angry and picked up a pillow beside him and threw it at him.
This time Li Yuanche did not dodge and was hit head-on by the pillow.
The old emperor was panting, his chest heaving violently.
He was so angry that he wanted to execute Li Yuanche immediately to vent his anger.
Li Yuanche knelt on the ground with bright red blood flowing from his forehead, but he didn't care at all.
After a long time, he looked up at the old emperor, his eyes vicious and full of resentment.
"Yeah, so what if I did it?"
"You...you rebellious son..."
Li Yuanche suddenly burst into laughter, "Hahahaha... That's right, it was me who did it, I just want to kill you! Hahaha..."
"How dare you! How dare you be so presumptuous... cough cough..."
The old emperor became more and more excited as he spoke, and suddenly he started coughing violently, his face turning red.
His eyes were red, as if blood was about to come out, which showed that he was very angry.
"emperor!"
Li Zhongyi hurriedly supported the old emperor and helped him calm down, "Your Majesty, please calm down. Don't let your anger damage your health!"
The old emperor took a deep breath, endured the pain in his chest, and shouted: "Rebellious son! You rebellious son! You are unworthy of being a son..."
Seeing this, Shen Wangshu also stood up and walked over quickly, showing a worried look, "Yes, Your Majesty, you must take care of your health."
However, the old emperor was still very angry with Li Yuanche, the crown prince, and pointed at Li Yuanche with trembling hands.
"You actually even treat your own father like this... You really disappoint me!"
Li Yuanche laughed heartily upon hearing this. "Hahaha, you're disappointed? What is there for you, an old man, to be disappointed about?"
"I am also your son, but have you ever cared about me in the past twenty years? If I hadn't reached the age of marriage, you would have forgotten me!"
Li Yuanche became increasingly agitated, nearly mad at the end. "Besides, what right do you have to be disappointed?! What father in the world would do something like you, forcibly marrying his own son?"
After saying that, he pointed at Shen Wangshu who was standing next to the old emperor, "And her! Do you think she stayed by your side willingly? Isn't it because she submitted to your tyranny?
If you didn't have this power, do you think she really loves you?"
Li Yuanche's words were like a bolt from the blue, leaving the old emperor burnt on the outside and tender on the inside.
"Asshole! Shut up!"
The old emperor was so angry that he was shaking all over. He never knew that his son would become like this.
"Your Majesty, please don't be angry. If you get yourself sick from anger, you'll just be giving others what they want."
After saying that, Shen Wangshu turned to look at Li Yuanche and said coldly, "Your Highness, first you committed treason and assassinated the emperor, which is unforgivable. Now you are trying to sow discord between me and the emperor. This is truly disappointing!"
"Chen Wangshu, stop pretending!"
Li Yuanche snorted with disdain, "If you hadn't framed me in the first place, how could I have resorted to such a despicable act?"
