Chapter 328 What crime does Prime Minister Su want to arrest me for?
The guards holding the halberds could not help but shudder when they saw Prince Yong's crazy look of resistance.
Shang Rong shouted in fear: "Quick! Hurry and grab him!"
I didn't expect that Prince Yong still had such strength at this time.
It took eight people working together to barely hold Zhao Minghong down. The golden crown on his head had already been tilted and his hair was disheveled.
His face was pressed hard against the cold bricks and stones, and the fire in his eyes was burning fiercely.
Confirm that Prince Yong's limbs were firmly pinned to the ground again.
Su Fengyue sneered, then stood up, walked around Prince Yong, and stepped on his shoulders.
The feeling of truly stepping on this noble family under your feet was so wonderful that Su Fengyue felt that the wound on his head no longer hurt.
"Your Highness, you are so stupid to attack me in my house. Don't you understand now? Not to mention being a woman, even your dignity, your status, and your power will soon become worthless."
Su Fengyue had a sarcastic smile on his face.
"I also want to thank you for telling me that the emperor has passed away. No wonder I couldn't find out anything about Zhaoyang Palace recently. It turns out that Zhao Mingyan is dead."
Duan Mingfeng is the emperor's confidant. With him guarding the palace, no news can leak out.
According to Xi Jin's news, the emperor's injuries were serious and he would not live long. Logically speaking, he could not survive for so many days.
It turned out that he had died a long time ago and his death was kept secret.
Prince Yong smiled even more mockingly than Su Fengyue, and he started to cough loudly.
The cough interrupted Su Fengyue's imagination and outline of the future.
Su Fengyue asked unhappily: "What are you laughing at?"
Zhao Minghong said nothing, just glanced at him sideways, and then laughed even more wildly.
Su Fengyue stepped on Prince Yong's head and said angrily, "I ask you, what are you laughing at? You are a poor fellow who is about to become a lost dog. What is there to laugh at?"
Zhao Minghong said hoarsely: "I'm laughing at you. Your death is approaching, yet you are still so complacent."
Su Fengyue said, "I see that you are still stubborn even when you are about to die. Take him to the woodshed and lock him up. No one is allowed to approach him without my order."
The guards dragged Zhao Minghong up from the ground, and Shang Rong was about to lead people down himself.
"The secret room in the woodshed has been discovered."
There was a voice coming from a distance, calm and indifferent.
When everyone looked over, they realized that a tall figure had been standing at the door, his face immersed in the shadow cast by the light.
Su Fengyue's right eye was swollen, and he squinted his left eye to see, but he couldn't see clearly as they were several feet away.
"Who is it?"
Shang Rong took a few glances before confirming the man's identity and said, "Master, he is a farmhand in the backyard of the mansion."
Su Fengyue was skeptical about what this man said.
"He said that the secret room in the woodshed was discovered? Why didn't anyone come to report it to me?"
He looked at the housekeeper, and Shang Rong shook his head, indicating that he was also unaware and had not received any news.
Su Fengyue asked: "Why did you come here alone? Where is the person guarding the firewood room?"
The farmhand said, "He's dead."
Su Fengyue couldn't sit still, so he stood up, walked a few steps closer, and stared at his face.
"Did you see who did it?"
The farmhand stood upright at the door and said, "I didn't see clearly, but it looks like someone from the palace."
Su Fengyue's forehead twitched with pain, and he said, "Come in and answer me."
The farmhand walked in steadily and stood in the room. He glanced at Prince Yong who was being held up by several people without stopping.
Su Fengyue said: "I think you are steady and capable, so I will transfer you to be the guard of the front yard. Tell me in detail what you saw."
The farmhand said, "When I went over, the door of the woodshed was wide open, and the secret room had been broken into. There were two men in black guarding the door."
After Su Fengyue thought for a moment, he asked again: "How do you judge that they are people sent by the palace?"
The farmhand said, "They said they were coming to search for evidence."
Su Fengyue's face changed drastically, and the wound on his right eyebrow was affected, causing him to hiss in pain.
His face was slightly distorted as he asked, "What evidence?"
The farmhand said word for word: "Evidence of collusion with Xi Jin and treason."
Su Fengyue's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he suddenly ordered: "Catch him!"
Except for the guards who were holding Prince Yong, the other eight people surrounded him.
The farmhand didn't seem to panic and just chuckled.
"What crime does Prime Minister Su want to arrest me for?"
He raised his hand to touch his ear, took off the human skin mask, and revealed a handsome face.
The servants in the palace had never seen the emperor, and did not know that the person in front of them was the emperor who was rumored to be "dead". However, they did not dare to act rashly because of the awe-inspiring aura he suddenly released.
Su Fengyue's gray eyebrows and beard trembled uncontrollably.
"you......."
"Yes, it's me." Emperor Wu Su said in a calm voice.
The emperor and his ministers stood opposite each other, which was different from the previous court rules. Tonight Su Fengyue stood at the top, while Zhao Mingyan stood at the bottom.
But momentum is never determined by position.
Emperor Wu Su stood with his hands behind his back, as if all the light around him had been sucked away by him.
"I came to your house specifically to look for Prime Minister Su. Why didn't Prime Minister Su welcome me and even ordered his men to arrest me?"
As he spoke, he walked over to Prince Yong who was being held down by the guards.
"What crime is the prince being detained for? Does Prime Minister Su know?"
As soon as Zhao Minghong saw the emperor's true face, his eyes suddenly became sore and red bloodshot appeared in them.
He turned his head away, not wanting his brother to see his embarrassed look at this moment.
"You guys, don't want to live anymore?"
Emperor Wu Su said this nonchalantly, and the four men who were holding Prince Yong began to sweat on their foreheads, and they were about to loosen their hands.
Shang Rong shouted, "Catch them all!"
The housekeeper said to Su Fengyue: "Master, don't worry about who he is, whether he is the emperor or a farmhand. Since he has come to our house, let him come alive and leave alive!"
Su Fengyue, however, stood there like a wooden chicken, without much reaction.
From the moment Emperor Wu Su appeared in front of him intact, he knew that he had lost.
All is lost.
From leaving the palace to worship his ancestors to returning to the palace seriously injured, all the illusions, including the olive branch thrown out by Prince Yong today, were meant to confuse him, make him let down his guard, and make him think that the country of Beili was already in his hands.
The man in front of me never fights a battle without preparation.
Since he dared to appear in front of him so openly, he must have left a way of retreat for himself and blocked his way.
Su Fengyue exhaled in sections, and it took a long time for him to finish exhaling.
"Why not let me guess why the emperor is interested in coming to the front hall of the Su family to reminisce with me late at night?"
His mind was still clear: "Because in the dark room, the emperor did not find any evidence of my guilt."
Su Fengyue folded his hands on his abdomen, the same posture he usually took when attending court.
"The things in the dark room are just some of my shady hobbies. I wonder which law of Beili I have violated?"
