The emperor originally wanted to take the man away and spare his life.
Who would have thought that the second prince's fierce and violent inner voice would be heard: "Yes, I am the son of Prince Lian, but that is because you are useless. Since you do not care about our old friendship, don't blame me for being ruthless."
The emperor saw with his sharp eyes that the second prince had pulled out his hairpin, revealing a sharp weapon, and rushed towards him: "I want to be the emperor, hold the tyrant hostage and make him write an edict of succession."
The next second, the second prince was kicked away in a mess.
The emperor was dumbfounded, looking at the person who was swinging his robe.
Shen Shoufu raised his eyebrows proudly: “Is the emperor okay?”
The emperor felt despised and said, "I am fine. Come, take this criminal away and sentence him to death."
The Second Prince collapsed in despair: "Father, please, for the sake of your kindness in raising me for over ten years, spare me."
"Get lost! I'm not as ungrateful as you." The emperor spat.
“Father, please spare my life! I will never dare to do that again, Father…” As the Second Prince was being led away, he cursed inwardly, using very foul language.

The emperor raised his eyebrows and watched him quibble.
Shen Shoufu continued: “It is God’s will that I assist the emperor and see the hearts of the people.”
"If that's the case, why can't I see through your heart?" The emperor narrowed his eyes threateningly.
Shen Shoufu followed suit: "Because I am loyal to the emperor and have no second thoughts, you naturally cannot read my mind."
The emperor was amused: "Hahaha, isn't Prime Minister Shen afraid of knowing too much and being killed to silence him?"
Shen Shoufu also laughed: "Your Majesty is wise and powerful, so he naturally knows that destiny cannot be violated. Besides, Your Majesty doesn't want to know whether the people around him are human or ghost?"
The two cunning men looked at each other, each with their own thoughts, and laughed out loud.
The emperor regarded the chief minister as a treacherous minister.
Shen Shoufu looked at the emperor, the dog emperor.
