Chapter 218: The Emperor Admits Defeat
The Three Princes are coming back?
Chen Xiao's heart did not fluctuate.
What he was even more puzzled at the moment was that the prince of the country said that arsenic, didn't he send someone to Bai Lao to eat?
Chen Xiao frowned, and after thinking carefully, he looked at Zhao Xianjiu: "You are lying!" ”
Zhao Xijiu's face changed: "No!" ”
"You're lying, first of all, Hu Zhaoyi has already let you go under the knife from Bai Lao, so it's not just as simple as going to prison, it's impossible for her to let one thing be done by two people."
"It's not about me!" Zhao Saijiu said.
"That's you!" Chen Xiao is sure.
Zhao Xijiu snorted coldly: "If there is no evidence, you don't have to talk nonsense!" ”
Chen Xiao nodded when he heard this: "Okay, but ...... You still can't get away with it. ”
With that, Chen Xiao turned around and returned to the hall.
Zhao Saijiu came back, and the Ministry of Rites Shangshu said: "The fold has been written!" ”
Saying that, he looked at Chen Xiao, and Chen Xiao said, "Then hand it over, this kind of thing, the Ministry of Rites should take care of it!" ”
Zhao Xianjiu frowned, looked at Chen Xiao, wanted to say something, and held back.
In the end, he had no choice but to leave.
And the fold was also sent to the palace by the people of the Ministry of Rites.
This matter has come to an end for the time being, but only temporarily.
Because of Chen Xiao, at least he already knows the real murderer behind the scenes!
It is basically certain that it is the arsenic that Zhao Saijiu sent someone to Bai Lao to eat.
It's just that he needs affirmation and evidence for the latter matter.
As for Hu Zhaoyi, Chen Xiao is not in a hurry to trouble her.
Because, her son the Third Prince is coming back, when the time comes, this guy will find his own trouble, and Chen Xiao doesn't need to take the initiative!
In the afternoon, Bai Qingqing went back to prepare for the funeral.
Chen Xiao went to the Sifang Pavilion.
The battle between him and the emperor is not over.
Man Han, the prince of the Eagle Kingdom, was very happy when he saw Chen Xiao.
"Brother Chen, this prince is in a hurry, you say, Your Majesty has been delaying the marriage, what does he mean!"
Chen Xiao smiled: "Go to the palace to mention more?" ”
"This ...... Always go, I'm a little scared too! The prince of the Eagle Kingdom said.
Chen Xiao said: "Don't be afraid, I'll take you!" ”
So, Chen Xiao took the prince of the Eagle Kingdom into the palace and went to see the emperor.
In the imperial study, the emperor had a headache as soon as he saw the prince of the Eagle Kingdom.
The prince of the Eagle Kingdom said respectfully: "Your Majesty, I have been here for some days, I don't know...... Your Majesty wants to marry my Eagle Country...... How's it to be considered? ”
The emperor took a deep breath and glanced at Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao spoke: "Your Majesty, it's time for you to reply to the marriage!" ”
The emperor was angry and said, "Do you want you to teach me?" ”
"Then don't keep dragging it out, can this matter be rectified, you have to give someone a word to the prince of the Eagle Kingdom!" Chen Xiao said.
The prince of the Eagle Kingdom was stunned, looked at Chen Xiao, and thought to himself, brother, you listen to, dare to talk to your majesty like this?
He didn't dare to say that, he didn't expect Chen Xiao to dare, he couldn't help admiring Chen Xiao in his heart, and at the same time, he felt that this brother was so good and moved!
The emperor glared at Chen Xiao and said to the prince of the Eagle Kingdom, "You...... Want to marry that princess? ”
Chen Xiao said: "Didn't you say it last time, he fell in love with the Ninth Princess......"
The emperor's angry teeth itched, this Chen Xiao is too bastard.
He gritted his teeth and said to Chen Xiao, "Shut up! ”
The prince of the Eagle Kingdom glanced at Chen Xiao gratefully, and then said to the emperor: "I really want to marry the nine princesses of your country, please make your ...... fulfilled."
Chen Xiao looked at the emperor with a smile, with a look of wanting to see how the emperor stepped down.
The emperor was completely helpless at the moment, and he knew that the plan he originally wanted to design Chen Xiao to deal with the prince of the Eagle Kingdom could not be realized.
And if you don't reply to the prince of the Eagle Kingdom, it's really not good.
So, he threw in the towel!
"Alas...... The Ninth Princess is my most beloved daughter, so I have been thinking about letting her marry for a long time, and I am reluctant. ”
As soon as he heard this, the prince of the Eagle Kingdom was stunned: "Your Majesty, I can take her back to the Dragon Kingdom from time to time......"
"It's not realistic, I hope that Jiu'er can always be by my side......" the emperor said.
As soon as he heard this, the prince of the Eagle Kingdom knew that there was no play!
He was a little disappointed, but he still spoke: "Your Majesty, ask for fulfillment!" ”
The emperor was a little unhappy and said, "I, I really can't bear the ninth princess, so let's do you, other princesses, do you have a favorite?" ”
The prince of the Eagle Kingdom was stunned, where did he pay attention to the other princesses?
So he shook his head: "I ...... I just fell in love with the Ninth Princess, and the others ...... Didn't care about ......"
"Then I can't help it, I can't bear Xiao Jiu, and Xiao Jiu doesn't want to marry, so, Prince of Eagle Country, I'm afraid you ran for nothing this time!"
The emperor had no choice but to cut off the idea of the prince of the Eagle Country like this.
Originally, this should have been a problem he gave Chen Xiao, but he didn't expect that he would solve it by himself now, and he was angry to think about it!
The prince of the Eagle Kingdom was cold, and seeing that the emperor had made up his mind, he sighed helplessly: "So...... I understand...... Since I can't get married, then, I will leave the Dragon Kingdom and return to the Eagle Kingdom on the same day! ”
The Emperor nodded slightly, and snorted.
The prince of the Eagle Kingdom was very surprised, it stands to reason that at this time, the emperor should not say a word, although there is no marriage, but the relationship between the two countries is still good?
But the emperor didn't say, what does it mean?
It shows that the Dragon Kingdom is not willing to get along with the Eagle Kingdom with a low profile!
Thinking of this, he bowed slightly, turned around and left the imperial study.
Chen Xiao looked at the emperor with a smug expression.
The emperor's face was gloomy, he looked at Chen Xiao and said, "Count you ruthless!" ”
"Your Majesty, stealing chickens doesn't make you lose rice, right? Who told you to want to pit me! Chen Xiao said.
The emperor snorted: "Get out, I don't want to see you!" ”
Chen Xiao pursed his lips, then turned to leave.
Looking at the figure of Chen Xiao leaving, the emperor whispered: "Third child, you're coming back!" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, the third prince is said to be on his way back......" the old eunuch spoke.
"The cultivation of the third child, at least in the middle of the internal force realm, when he comes back, he will definitely not let go of Chen Xiao!" The emperor was vaguely worried!
The old eunuch lowered his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, will the third prince go directly to kill Chen Xiao......
"Possibly...... This matter needs to be avoided...... "The emperor has a headache.
One is his own son, and the other is the horse hand-picked by his favorite daughter.
The contradiction between this son and the prospective son-in-law...... He's really embarrassed!
sighed, took out the fold and continued to look, just glanced at it a few times, and let out a surprised voice:
"Huh? Several chief officials of the Ministry of Rites jointly impeached the prince of the country for sacrificial wine...... Chen Xiao found the prisoner in the Qinglou ......"
The emperor frowned, thinking to himself that this Chen Xiao, why did he have a conflict with Guozijian again?
He frowned and said, "Tomorrow morning, let Chen Xiao come too!" ”
The old eunuch nodded!
The next day, early in the morning!
Chen Xiao smiled and walked towards the main hall with the civil and military officials.
On the way, many officials were puzzled, what was Chen Xiao doing in the early dynasty?
Entering the main hall, in the huge hall, Chen Xiao was still standing on the outermost.
After a short time, the emperor went to court, dealt with some state affairs, and came up with a recital, saying:
"I have an impeachment here, all Aiqing, discuss it together!"
