Chapter 137 Confrontation
Even Shen Mubai himself paused for a moment before screaming.
He was afraid that he would fall, so he reflexively grabbed the pig's ears.
Unexpectedly, this made the sow even more frightened. She ran faster and rushed around.
Seeing that the pig was about to crash into the wall, Shen Mubai screamed in fear, pulling the pig's ears and shouting.
“Help!”
It was also at this time that Emperor Rongcheng's men rushed in.
However, when they saw this scene, they were all stunned and too shocked to say a word.
******
Wanhe Hall.
Shen Mubai was "carried" back.
His clothes were torn and his face was disheveled. He was lying on a modified sedan chair with a look of despair on his face.
Moreover, after he came in, the entire hall was filled with a strange smell.
A smell similar to animal feces mixed with a fishy smell.
This made Gu Jingchun quietly move to the side, trying to stay as far away from Shen Mubai as possible, for fear that he would be stained with this smell.
After Shen Mubai was put down, he immediately struggled to crawl forward a few steps, and then spoke with a crying voice.
"Father, please make the decision for me!"
Emperor Rongcheng did not expect that Prince Rui would come back in this state. He stood up in surprise and walked down worriedly.
"It's all right, what happened?"
"How did you get yourself into this state?"
Emperor Rongcheng walked in front of Shen Mubai and was about to lean over, but he smelled the stench on Shen Mubai's body, his body paused, and he couldn't help but take a step back.
Shen Mubai looked around, first pouted at Concubine Hui in grievance, and finally set his eyes on Shen Hechuan.
"Father, the prince is harming me!"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Rongcheng glanced at Shen Hechuan indifferently, retreated back to sit on the dragon throne, and then asked another question.
"oh?"
"The prince harmed you?"
"Then tell me how His Royal Highness the Crown Prince harmed you?"
Hearing this, Shen Mubai immediately took a deep breath, ready to tell Shen Hechuan's crimes in one breath.
For example, Chen Hechuan secretly replaced Gu Jingchun with the pig, causing him to be attacked by the pig. Not only did he lose all his face, but he was also in great pain.
However, when he opened his mouth, he suddenly stopped and couldn't say a word.
Shen Mubai was really confused by the sow.
He actually said this without even thinking. If he really told this to Emperor Rongcheng, how would he explain it if Emperor Rongcheng asked him why he stole the bridal sedan?
Isn't this blocking all your retreat routes?
Seeing that Shen Mubai didn’t speak, Emperor Rongcheng couldn’t help but ask again.
Only then did Shen Mubai endure the pain in his buttocks and sit down, bowing respectfully.
"Father, when I was out today, I was accidentally attacked by a wild boar and got injured.
"I was so angry that I lost my temper and said something that I didn't think right. It has nothing to do with Your Highness the Crown Prince. I hope your Highness will forgive me and Your Highness the Crown Prince will not mind."
Hearing this, Shen Hechuan turned around indifferently, with a smile on his lips, and said something to Shen Mubai.
“Of course I don’t mind.
However, judging by your reaction today, I guess the wild boar you encountered today was quite large, otherwise, how could you have gotten yourself into such a mess? "
Hearing this, Shen Mubai's face turned pale and blue. Even though he hated him to death in his heart, he could only pretend to smile in front of him.
“Your Highness, I’m worried, but it was just a moment of carelessness on my part that allowed that wild boar to take advantage of me.
Now, his clothes are just a little dirty, and he is not seriously injured.
After Shen Mubai finished speaking, Emperor Rongcheng was relieved to confirm that he was fine.
He looked at Shen Mubai, and then continued, “What a coincidence, someone said today that it was you who wanted to harm His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.”
Shen Mubai raised his head and looked at Emperor Rongcheng in disbelief.
Emperor Rongcheng looked at Gu Jingchun.
Only then did Shen Mubai follow Emperor Rongcheng’s gaze and look at Gu Jingchun.
But just this one look made him take a step back in disbelief, sit directly on the ground, and shout in disbelief.
"Why are you here?"
Gu Jingchun looked at Shen Mubai and spoke timidly:
"Your Highness, Prince Rui, I have already told His Majesty everything you have done. Now, don't even think about using me to threaten His Highness the Crown Prince."
Shen Mubai was completely confused at the moment, and without thinking too much, he spoke reflexively:
"What's the point of telling His Majesty? You..."
When he said this, he suddenly realized something, paused, and turned abruptly to look at Emperor Rongcheng.
"Father, I don't know what this girl means."
"He clearly wants to frame Yu Erchen."
Emperor Rongcheng had already understood when Shen Mubai opened his mouth that this matter must be related to him, so he snorted coldly.
"Miss Gu said that you brought people to impersonate the Crown Prince and forcibly took her sedan chair away."
Shen Mubai looked at Gu Jingchun in even greater shock when he heard this.
I thought, how could he know his plan?!
However, it is true that he robbed the bridal sedan, but he did not hold Gu Jingchun hostage.
After all, who would have thought that there was a pig in the sedan chair!
Therefore, Shen Mubai quickly shook his head and refused.
"No, no, no, Father, that's not the case. I didn't do anything like that. Not only that, I haven't even seen her today, so how could I hold her hostage?"
Shen Mubai kept shaking his head.
Concubine Hui on the side kept looking at Shen Mubai worriedly.
She didn't know why, but she suddenly had a bad feeling.
At this moment, Emperor Rongcheng gestured to Li Ce, who had been kneeling on one side to investigate, to speak respectfully.
"Your Majesty, I have investigated the scene of the bride kidnapping today, questioned the surrounding residents, and examined various traces, including wheel tracks. Ultimately, all the evidence points to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Rongcheng frowned slightly.
Concubine Hui and Shen Mubai breathed a sigh of relief.
Especially Shen Mubai, if he hadn't lowered his head now, he would probably have been about to burst out laughing.
Even if he prepared a pig for him, he would still be punished by Emperor Rongcheng in the end.
He was now looking forward to seeing how Emperor Rongcheng would punish her.
It would be great if we could just depose him from the position of crown prince.
In this way, he would be the legitimate crown prince of Dacheng. In the future, he would want to see who would dare to say that he was not as good as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
However, Li Ce continued:
"However, through various clues, I have discovered that these evidences are suspicious."
"After many rounds of comparative investigation, we finally discovered that this group of people were acting suspiciously. We followed their trail and unexpectedly discovered that His Royal Highness Prince Rui was among them."
"and……"
Li Ce said while looking at Shen Mubai hesitantly.
Upon seeing this, Emperor Rongcheng immediately warned: "And what!"
