Chapter 499: It's all in vain again
Xiao Chengxuan's face turned pale.
He had already been demoted to a commoner, and his father still spoke such harsh words. He didn't dare to imagine what kind of outcome would be waiting for him next!
"Your Majesty! I am really being wronged! You——"
Concubine Ru finally reacted and begged: "Your Majesty, please calm down! There must be a misunderstanding! How could Chengxuan do such a thing? He would not--"
"Shut up!"
Emperor Mu Wu suddenly shouted,
"Anyone who dares to plead for him again will be guilty of the same crime!"
Before Concubine Ru could say anything, Emperor Mu Wu had already spoken in a stern voice: "Concubine Ru, if you don't discipline your children strictly, you will be demoted to a talented lady and banished to the cold palace from today!"
Concubine Ru couldn't believe what she heard. She opened her eyes wide and the color drained from her face.
However, Emperor Mu Wu refused to even look at her.
He had forgiven this mother and son many times before, but they refused to change their ways. It was really too much!
Originally he wanted to give Xiao Chengxuan a chance, but everything that happened recently really disappointed him!
He had placed high hopes on his son and had raised him personally for many years, but he never expected that he would turn out to be such an ungrateful person!
He has ulterior motives and a sinister mind!
Who knows when he will set his sights on this dragon throne!
There was deathly silence in the hall, leaving only a bone-chilling chill.
“And you!”
Emperor Muwu pointed at Xiao Chengxuan and spoke sternly.
"You have committed a grave sin and committed treason! You will be exiled to Yizhou! You will not be allowed to set foot in the capital for the rest of your life!"
The wrath of thunder is nothing more than this.
Even Chen Songshi, Tang Zhongli and others who were present were shocked and looked stunned.
They were aware of Emperor Mu Wu's previous favoritism towards Xiao Chengxuan, otherwise they would not have all entered the palace today. However, they did not expect that the final result would come so quickly.
Xiao Chengxuan felt cold all over and his mind went blank.
There was only one thought left in my mind - it's over!
Even when he was demoted to a commoner, he had never felt such deep despair. After all, as long as he was still in the capital, there was still hope for his comeback.
But after just a few days, he was exiled again! He was never allowed to enter the capital for the rest of his life!
——This completely cuts off his path!
From now on, all this wealth and glory has nothing to do with him anymore!
Xiao Chengxuan opened his mouth, but couldn't even utter the words to beg for mercy.
However, at this moment, Emperor Mu Wu suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest!
He covered his chest in pain, and soon closed his eyes and fell backwards.
Eunuch Li, who was serving on the side, was the first to notice something was wrong and immediately rushed forward:
"His Majesty!"
…
Ye Mansion.
Ye Chutang slept in for a rare time. Just as he got up and was about to make some tea, he was hurriedly summoned by someone from the palace.
Seeing the anxious look of the person coming, Ye Chutang's eyelids twitched slightly, and he had a feeling that something was wrong.
She wanted to find out something, but they all kept silent. Ye Chutang realized that the matter was more serious than she thought, so she tactfully stopped asking.
Silence all the way.
It was not until he arrived at the gate of Qianyuan Hall and saw Chu Qiyuan, who had arrived earlier with a serious expression, that Ye Chutang's guess had been confirmed by about 70%.
The palace was heavily guarded. In addition to Chu Qiyuan, there were also several imperial doctors gathered here.
Everyone had a sad face and the atmosphere was extremely tense.
"Miss Ye Er is here——"
When the palace maid sang, Chu Qiyuan and the other imperial doctors all looked over here.
Ye Chutang finally saw Emperor Mu Wu, whose face was as pale as gold paper in the hall.
She suddenly had a headache.
——Well, it’s all in vain again.
