Chapter 58: Giving the Title
Although it was hidden, the sharp-eyed minister still saw what was written on it, and the eyes of the officials who saw it widened, and his heart was full of sighs, and the people who couldn't see it whispered and asked quietly, what was on the painting that made the second prince have such an expression. The person who was asked had no choice but to lip shape, but he didn't dare to make a sound, and the person who guessed by the lip shape also gasped.
No wonder Your Majesty is so angry, a good birthday banquet, a picture scroll actually scolded Your Majesty from a dragon to a worm, no one would be angry, let alone offend the might of the Son of Heaven! Everyone sighed, the future of the second prince is afraid that it will be wasted.
"See? So what's written on it? Emperor Cheng Xuan pointed at his second son, who was not in the air, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and his hand in the air smashed it over with a wine bottle.
Qi Yin immediately knelt down, shouting that he was wronged, he pinched his thigh fiercely, and cried out of tears, "Father, the son really doesn't know." The sons only thought about sharing their father's worries all day long, and finally waited until their father's birthday, just wanting to smile at their father. Who knew that such a thing was encountered, but this was not the original intention of the son. ”
He lowered his head even more, and wiped the tears and snot of his crying on the brocade robe, "What Erchen is looking for is indeed a real painting, how much effort did it take to find it." It's just that Erchen is loyal and honest, maybe he was framed, otherwise how could he give the same gift as his fifth brother? ”
Hearing this, Emperor Cheng Xuan's eyes showed some essence, and his heart turned, and he was a little skeptical, could it be true that what Lao Wu said?
When Luo Rao heard Qi Yin say this, she stared straight at him, the hatred in her eyes was hard to hide, and the nails in her hands were embedded in her palms. The second prince is really a good skill, the black can be said to be white, what is loyal and honest, so where did those lonely souls of the Shen family come from.
She was about to stand up, but Helian Xi held her down at the right time, shook his head at her, and said don't worry. Luo Rao suddenly remembered where she was, and she nodded. Some are unwilling, but it seems that they can only look at it like this, and they must not involve Wuliang Mountain.
Qi Lian stepped forward and said solemnly: "Second Emperor Brother, you have to make it clear, you said that you bothered to find paintings, and there must be some basis." It is not a matter of great hardship for others to find it, but you can't imply that the real painting that others find is taken from you. Maybe the second emperor brother was just deceived, if so, as long as you make it clear where this painting came from, wouldn't it be clear at a glance? When the time comes, you can find someone to confront you and reveal the truth, and you can also ask him what his intentions are? ”
"It's a very good law." Emperor Cheng Xuan nodded and praised, "Second brother, just tell me how you found this painting." ”
"This ......" Qi Yin stammered, he didn't know how to answer, because he got this painting from the Shen family. If he recruits the Shen family, His Majesty will be able to know about the Shen family's murder by sending someone to investigate, how can he recover it at that time, it is by no means such a simple matter as not getting a good title, if the end is good, he will be idle at home, if the end is not good, maybe he will be demoted to a concubine.
But if he didn't recruit the Shen family, how should he answer, how to pick himself out?
With a cold sweat on his forehead, he said in a slurping voice, "Father...... The emperor ......, the sons...... These things were all ordered by the ministers to be done, and I really don't know where they got them. At that time, it just happened that one person sold it at a high price, and Erchen's subordinates bought it, but now I am afraid that they will not be found. I didn't think about it so much at the time, but I didn't know that I would meet ...... Something like that. ”
"Brother Erhuang said this, but he can't prove himself." Qi Lian looked innocent, "This person who sells paintings can't find it, so you can't just pull someone over and say that you are innocent." When the second emperor brother said this, it was equivalent to not saying it. What's more, the emperor's congratulatory gift, the imperial brother said that it took a lot of effort before, but now he said that he didn't know anything about it, which was really contradictory. ”
Qi Lian's last sentence was loud, "The Second Emperor's Brother Committee is really suspected of deceiving the Holy Lord." ”
Qi Yin lowered his head, bowed his body, still kneeling there, his narrow eyes were full of hatred, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Father forgives the emperor, the son just didn't think it through, not intentionally, son retainer...... Erchen ....... ”
Emperor Cheng Xuan's eyes when he looked at Qi Yin had completely changed at this time, with suspicion, was everything before this child pretended? said that he didn't care about the title, but secretly he even calculated himself. How can the king of a country tolerate this, since he wants to be titled like this, well, he will be fulfilled.
"Yin'er, you should marry a concubine in a year, before that, stay in the mansion, think carefully about how to think about things, and don't go out again before marrying a concubine." In this way, this can actually be regarded as grounding Qi Yin, and he can't participate in political affairs.
"The crow feeds back, the lamb kneels to suckle, and since you don't know, learn from them."
Emperor Cheng Xuan's words were like hitting Qi Yin's face, and he felt even more pale, and he actually let himself learn like a beast, is this scolding himself for not being as good as a beast? His eyes were full of gloom, Qi Yin thought to himself that this time it could be regarded as planting, who set him up?
Is it the fifth? Is it the Shen family? Or is it Luo Rao, who was accepted as a disciple by Wuliang Mountain?
Or ...... Both?
Hmph, he's really honored to be able to make such a big deal out of them. A Shen family, dying and struggling, now there is no one left, and in the end he will have to be calculated. What a damn one! They should have been sent to the west earlier, and they were all to blame for that group of waste, who couldn't do anything well, and let people take advantage of the loopholes.
As for Lao Wu, he didn't target himself on weekdays, and he actually set himself up at a critical moment, so he didn't believe that it was a coincidence that he sent the same gift. The iron must have been calculated a long time ago, but he has been confident for so long, and he has been proud for so long, but in the end he is just a chess piece for someone else's plan.
Just as Qi Yin was immersed in the humiliation of being regarded as a clown jumping beam, Emperor Cheng Xuan opened his mouth: "Come on, draft the will." ”
Hearing this, Qi Yin raised his head suddenly, should his father not want to ......, don't be at this time, if he intends it now, it will really be difficult for him to turn over in the future. Although he had expected it countless times at the banquet, at this time his father was angry, how could it be as good as he had thought before.
Emperor Cheng Xuan was about to open his mouth to say the content of the proposed decree, but Concubine Li hurriedly ran in, looking like a pear blossom with rain, and saluted, "Your Majesty, you have to be clear." Yin Er has always been the most sensible and filial, and he will never do such a thing, he must be framed. ”
Seeing Concubine Li, Emperor Cheng Xuan suddenly felt a headache and scolded: "Go back quickly, this banquet is where you should come." ”
He stood up, his bright yellow dragon robe became more and more tall, flicked his cuffs, and finally said the content of the holy decree: "Second son Qi Yin, Feng Eagle King." In the future, you should also learn from them what filial piety is. ”
After saying this, Emperor Cheng Xuan still left with his sleeves in his breath.
Hearing this title, Qi Yin, who was kneeling, sat down all of a sudden, and said in his heart...... It's over, it's all over.
