Soon after the black-robed man left, the jailer who was stunned outside slowly woke up.

"How did I fall asleep?!"

The jailer was startled at first when he saw that he had suddenly fallen asleep, and then saw that there was no one around, so he quickly got up and went into the prison to inspect, and when he saw that everything was normal in the prison, he calmed down and walked outside, and happened to bump into several jailers who had been patrolling outside.

"Is there something in there?" the cell boss asked in a deep voice.

The man who fell asleep just now hurriedly shook his head: "It's okay." ”

"It's good to have nothing to do, in the past few days, things have happened one after another in the court, and King Xiang is locked up in this prison, you must not be careless, otherwise if something goes wrong, all of us will not be able to save our heads, understand?"

"Understood. ”

After everyone responded in unison, the man waved them down to their respective duties, and the man walked inside, until he stood in the innermost part and saw that King Xiang was still safe, he looked at King Xiang who was locked up in the Tianzi cell with a somewhat complicated expression, and then shook his head and turned to leave.

-------------

Xiao Minyuan listened to the words of the jailers outside and dispersed, and even saw the eyes of the cell boss who looked at him with pity and sympathy, he stood alone in the cell, silent for a long time, and then turned to look at the cell behind him.

Although he was imprisoned, because he was not sentenced and he was still a prince, the inside of this cell was much cleaner than in other prisons.

Behind him was a fairly tidy bed, with a layer of moisture-proof hay on the ground, and when people walked on it, the soles of their feet made a "creaking" sound when the dead grass broke, and Xiao Minyuan was silent for a moment, he just walked to the bed with a blank face and sat down, but his mind was always the two words that the man said just now.

What does Emperor Yongzhen want?

His mind kept echoing the words of the man before he left, thinking about the things that Emperor Yongzhen had done over the years, and his attitude towards them, princes and courtiers.

Emperor Yongzhen has never been a person who will easily trust anyone, even if it is their own sons, he will never let them continue to grow up, let alone let them threaten his imperial power.

Over the years, whenever there is any prince who has too much power, he will start to suppress it, and his attitude towards these princes has always been ambiguous, except for Xiao Yuanzhu, who lives in Yiyuntai and no longer shows up in the outside world all year round, Emperor Yongzhen has not shown obvious likes and dislikes and favors to others.

He seems to value everyone, and gives them hope that they will climb up by any means, but he seems to value no one, and he has never made it clear that he intends to make anyone the prince, sit and watch them fight for that position, and sit and watch them continue to plot and kill each other for the throne.

Such a person, what he wants is really a situation of father's love and filial piety, brotherhood and friendship?

What he still wants, it's just that the court is stable, the throne is safe, what he wants is everyone's obedience to him, and the power to always be high up and control everyone's life and death.

Xiao Minyuan stretched out his hand and put it in front of him, his fingers curled slightly, and a smile slowly appeared on his face, which had been bloodless because of the words of the previous person.

Is it to be born after death?

My father, if the situation you want is broken, if the balance between the court and the middle is lost, if the ambition of the eldest and fourth is so big that you feel threatened......

Will you be willing to put me in jail?

-------------

On the morning of the second day, several people in the court suddenly jointly impeached King Xiang, saying that he had secretly met with courtiers, raised government soldiers, and even colluded with the army to privately open minerals in Yaotai, Guanquan and other places, meddle in salt transportation, and accumulate money to bribe officials. Before the matter was over, there was a royal history accusing Cai Yan and King Xiang of conspiring to disregard people's lives and privately withholding military salaries to disrupt military discipline, the court and China were boiling for a while, as if everyone wanted to put King Xiang to death.

Emperor Yongzhen was forced to poke by the sudden appeal of a large group of people, and after he retreated with a calm face, as soon as he stepped into the harem, someone hurriedly came to report, saying that the queen found that the death of Concubine Zheng was not an accident, but the palace concubine, she ordered someone to replace Concubine Zheng's fetal pills, not only killed the imperial heir in Concubine Zheng's womb, but also killed Concubine Zheng and the child together.

Emperor Yongzhen, who had just retired from the main hall, was stopped on the way back to the imperial study, and his whole body exuded a chill, and even his eyes were full of anger.

"Your Majesty, the queen said that Concubine Li is the mother of King Xiang and the lord of the first palace, and the mother doesn't know what to do, so she specially asked the slave to consult the holy will and hand over the concubine to the holy judge. ”

The eunuchs in the queen's palace knelt in front of Emperor Yongzhen, and although his words were respectful, Emperor Yongzhen clearly felt a trace of excitement from him.

What is he excited about?

Excited to be able to remove Li Concubine for his master, or can he be excited to completely cut off Queen Xiang's way back because of Li Concubine's fault?

The former dynasty and the harem actually attacked at the same time, wanting to put King Xiang to death.

Did they really think he was stupid, or did they think he was so stupid that he dared to fool him like this?!

The eunuch didn't seem to feel the anger on Emperor Yongzhen's body at all, and seeing that Emperor Yongzhen didn't speak, he said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, I don't know what to do with Concubine Li?"

"Disposition?"

Emperor Yongzhen said expressionlessly: "How about killing directly with a cane, especially as an example?"

The eunuch hurriedly raised his head, obviously did not expect that Emperor Yongzhen would directly order Concubine Li to be killed, he had three points of surprise in his eyes, but when he touched Emperor Yongzhen's eyes, he suddenly realized that something was wrong, he quickly kowtowed and wanted to beg for mercy, but Emperor Yongzhen didn't give him this opportunity at all, and spoke out directly.

"Come on, drag this person who chews his tongue and slanders the palace concubine down, and beats him to death with a stick!"

"Your Majesty!!"

The eunuch was so frightened that his face was like earth, and he kowtowed in a panic: "Your Majesty spares your life, Your Majesty spares your life, the slave is on the order of the queen's mother, the slave did not slander Concubine Li, Your Majesty ......"

Chen An saw that the more words that Emperor Yongzhen spoke, the more gloomy his eyes became, he hurriedly stepped forward and slapped the eunuch in the face, pulled the cloth towel to block the man's mouth, and said angrily to the person next to him: "Don't you have long eyes, keep this dog slave talking nonsense and staining His Majesty's ears, and don't drag him down!"

A group of people around hurriedly stepped forward and dragged the little eunuch down.

And the little eunuch didn't understand until he died, what exactly did he anger Long Yan.

There was a wind blowing around, and the clothes on the clothes of Emperor Yongzhen were fluttering.

Chen An stood by for a while, then took the cloak from the hand of the little eunuch standing and serving next to him, stepped forward, put it on the shoulder of Emperor Yongzhen, and whispered: "Your Majesty, why be angry about such a minion's nonsense, although the sky is good now, but the spring is cold, Your Majesty still has to be careful of the dragon body." ”
