Riding the Pheonix Chapter 514: Question

How did things become like this?

The prince was still confused until he knelt before the emperor.

His plan was obviously perfect. He used King Yongxi's handwriting to trick Concubine Pei out, and he got King Xin to the meeting place.

Finally, bring the emperor over.

No matter what the truth is, the prince and his beloved concubine meet in such a remote place, which makes people suspicious.

In this way, he could kill two birds with one stone and eliminate King Xin and Concubine Pei at the same time.

Although there were some problems during the execution, Concubine Pei should not be with the emperor no matter what!

Contrary to him, King Xin was very happy at this time.

Seeing the way the prince looked at Concubine Pei, he already guessed what the prince wanted to do.

This is to make him bear the crime of molesting his concubine and make him be despised by his father!

Fortunately, I realized something was wrong in time and didn't let the prince succeed.

Although brothers fighting will definitely be reprimanded by their father, but compared with teasing Concubine Pei, what is it?

What's more, with the prince's intelligence, there must be loopholes in this matter.

He can endure it, but Concubine Pei will not tolerate it either.

After passing the current hurdle first, when Concubine Pei takes action, she only needs to fan the flames from the side, and she will see the prince shoot herself in the foot!

Maybe we can use this incident to make the prince lose his Sacred Heart and take the opportunity to ascend to the throne!

King Xin suppressed his excitement, looked honest, and bowed his head to listen to the instructions.

Wan Dabao brought the soup and said carefully: "Your Majesty, please drink some sobering soup to get rid of the alcohol smell."

The emperor stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to take it, but when he touched the soup cup, he suddenly became furious and swept it away with a wave of his hand.

The sharp sound of breaking porcelain was heard. The soup cup fell on the prince first, spilling all over him, and then rolled onto King Xin. All the remaining soup was poured out, and finally it hit the ground and broke into pieces.

The two of them didn't even dare to shake, and allowed the soup to seep into their clothes, making them wet all over.

The emperor's face was as dark as water, his eyes fell on the prince and King Xin, and he uttered two words: "Get out!"

In this situation, it was obviously impossible to ask the two princes to go out. Wan Dabao came to understand and winked at the chamberlain present.

The people who serve the emperor are all human beings, how can we not understand? It was gone in the blink of an eye.

Only four people were left.

The emperor, the prince, King Xin, and Concubine Pei.

The emperor looked at them coldly: "Which of you will speak first?"

The prince shrank under his gaze, quickly reacted, and leaned down, looking frightened: "Father, I am wrong!"

"Oh?" The emperor raised the corner of his mouth, not sure whether it was a sneer or a mockery, "Where did you go wrong?"

The prince said: "My son made two mistakes. One is that he should not drink alcohol without restraint, so that he loses his mind. The other is that he should not argue with his second brother. As an elder brother, he does not know friendship. I am very wrong. Please ask my father. Punishment!"

He seemed sincere. He lowered his head deeply. The hand on the ground pressed against the broken porcelain and blood oozed out. However, he did not dare to move a little and knelt down obediently.

He is quite clever now and knows how to avoid the most important things and take the easy ones. The matter of deliberately bringing Concubine Pei here must not be mentioned. If the plan fails, it can only rot in the stomach. If he mentions it, he will definitely be the unlucky one.

Mr. Fu once taught that if you do something wrong, you must admit it quickly. When something happens, the other party has actually already convicted you in his heart. The so-called opportunity to defend yourself is just the difference between a heavy sentence and a light sentence. Only by reflecting quickly enough can we win the chance of a lighter sentence.

On this matter, the emperor had already seen him scuffle with King Xin, so it was impossible not to admit his mistake.

The plan has not yet been implemented, and there is no evidence of the truth.

The only loophole is Concubine Pei, who has a fake note in her hand.

How could Concubine Pei take the initiative to say it? This is also her handle.

So, admit your mistake quickly and you can cover up this matter!

The emperor said nothing and looked at him condescendingly, with no intention of expressing his opinion.

The sweat on the prince's forehead slipped unknowingly. He thought about his words several times and felt that the problem was not big. However, the emperor's attitude made him unpredictable.

After a long time, the emperor finally said: "What about you? What should I say?"

He is looking at King Xin.

When King Xin got the chance to speak, he immediately bowed his head and admitted his mistake: "Father, this matter cannot be entirely blamed on the eldest brother. I am also at fault. I knew that my eldest brother was drunk, so I should have tolerated it a little. It was my son who couldn't calm down. I was so angry that I couldn't bear even a few drunken words, and actually started fighting with my brother. I know my mistake, please punish me!"

While he was frightened, he felt pity in his heart. How come the boss has learned to be smart? He used to hate admitting mistakes. Whenever this happened, he would always defend himself, but he didn't know that this would only have the opposite effect.

"You are now brothers and sisters. Why didn't you think of that just now?" The emperor's voice was lowered and suddenly raised, "Look at what you look like! A prince and a prince are actually fighting each other. I can't believe what I saw! If the courtiers see this, where will the royal family's face be put? Where will the court's face be put?"

After being scolded, the prince breathed a sigh of relief, lowered his body lower, and said in a sincere tone: "My father taught me a lesson, and my son regrets it."

King Xin also quickly bowed his head: "My son, too, I will definitely learn a lesson in the future and never do it again."

The emperor softened his tone and leaned forward slowly, as if his temper had already been expressed.

"Tell me, what happened? Why did you fight each other in that remote place?"

The prince felt relieved when his tone improved ~IndoMTL.com~ and replied: "Father, my son is too drunk, so I thought of walking around and blowing in the wind to sober up. Unexpectedly, I met my second brother on the way. , so I pulled him to enjoy the moon together, and we arrived here unknowingly. Erchen was a little confused before, maybe he said something inappropriate, but the second brother took it seriously, so... In short, it's all Erchen's fault."

The emperor looked at King Xin: "Is that so?"

King Xin replied: "That's true. It's just that I can't remember how the quarrel started. I just remember that I felt unhappy, so I argued with my eldest brother for a few words, but I didn't expect that my eldest brother would get angry and take action... ”

The emperor looked at this and that, with a sneer on his lips.

The confessions of the two brothers sounded consistent at first glance, but both of them blamed the other for the first attack.

The emperor did not have a fit. He took the tea poured by Concubine Pei and took a slow sip before saying: "This is interesting. Wangyue Pavilion is so remote. How could it be such a coincidence that you two brothers wandered there to enjoy the moon? Go? And here, by coincidence, someone came to report that the imperial concubine went to Wangyue Pavilion. Concubine, what about you, why did you go to Wangyue Pavilion?"

As soon as she finished speaking, all three pairs of eyes looked towards Concubine Pei.

Concubine Pei, who had been following the emperor with a low eyebrow, looked embarrassed when she heard this: "Your Majesty, should I talk to you alone about this matter later?"

The emperor was unhappy: "What can't you say in person? They can't explain it clearly, and you can't explain it clearly either, right?"

"This..." Concubine Pei was in a dilemma.

"Say!"

Concubine Pei sighed helplessly and took out a note from her sleeve: "I received this thing because..."
