Chapter 268: I like to sell well when I get cheap
The second prince is certainly angry and has a liver ache, but he is helpless!
Obviously, Chen Xiao was the second prince and didn't want to expose what happened last night.
That's why he deliberately embarrassed the second prince in such a large public.
The key second prince has nothing to do about it.
He could only try his best to endure the anger in his heart.
At this moment, under the rhythm of Chen Xiao's pass, almost everyone paid attention to the scars on the face of the second prince, and the emperor was naturally no exception.
I saw the emperor look at the second prince and say, "Second brother, raise your head and let me take a look!" ”
The second prince slowly raised his head helplessly, and the emperor took a closer look.
The scars on the faces of these two princes were obviously whipped by others.
At that moment, I couldn't help frowning, and said in a deep voice:
"Second child, you are the prince, why are you still being beaten? Who hit it? What a guts! ”
Beating a child of the royal family is still a dignified son, and that is a felony is basically to kill the head.
If Chen Xiao'an is charged with such a crime at this time, it must be the best!
But the second prince understood more in his heart, if it was Chen Xiao.
Then when asked, the things he did will be exposed!
Not to mention anything else, assassinating the officials of the imperial court is enough to make him fall out of favor with the emperor, and it will also make the officials respect him.
In addition, it is somewhat embarrassing to be beaten by yourself, let alone being beaten by Chen Xiao!
Therefore, he was mentally prepared to hide this secret.
At this time, Chen Xiao spoke again:
"Yes, second prince, this beating of the royal family is a serious crime, you must say it, and punish this guy who despises the royal family heavily."
The second prince's face couldn't help but twitch.
He couldn't help but glance at Chen Xiao and thought: You are really shameless.
Of course, this could not be said, but could only be slandered in my heart, and I hated Chen Xiao very much.
Seeing that the second prince did not speak, the emperor frowned and said:
"Why, second brother, I asked you!"
The second prince raised his head helplessly and said:
"Father, the son was drunk in the palace yesterday, and he fell a few times on the way back, and there were some scars on his face, not because he was beaten, which made his father worry, and the son really didn't want to go."
When the emperor heard this, he said suspiciously: "Why did you fall on your face?" ”
The surrounding ministers also showed doubts, and some didn't quite believe the words of the second prince!
The second prince bowed down and said, "Father, when I returned to the palace last night, I was really drunk, and I fell several times while walking in the garden. It's not just the face that hurts, it's the body as well, so it's really just an accident. ”
Chen Xiao opened his mouth at this time and said: "No, second prince, you are too careless, how can you walk and still fall in your back garden, but you are really careless." ”
The second prince looked at Chen Xiao and said, "What Lord Chen said is that this king is indeed careless, and I believe there will be no more in the future." ”
Chen Xiao smiled: "Yes, then you can pay more attention in the future, don't make a scar again, it will be a little embarrassing to say it in this hall, hahaha." ”
The second prince also forcibly squeezed out a smile and said:
"Thank you Lord Chen for reminding me, there will never be such an incident in the future."
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this Chen Xuan has a lot of meaning for the second prince!
But the second prince seemed to have a hard time, and he was polite to Chen Xiao on the surface.
However, the second prince is reluctant to say more about this matter, and the emperor doesn't seem to be ready to ask more!
Naturally, the ministers are not easy to say!
Inside, the Seventh Prince couldn't help but twist his head away, revealing a knowing smile!
Others may not know, but as a person who has come over, he can see it at a glance!
He was sure that it must be the second prince who suffered a loss here in Chen Xiao.
He could even guess that the injuries on the faces and bodies of the two princes were definitely from Chen Xiao's hands!
Chen Xiao belongs to the typical existence of being cheap and obedient.
If the scars of the second prince had nothing to do with Chen Xiao, with the seventh prince's understanding of Chen Xiao, Chen Xiao would definitely not stand up and talk about it so much.
In fact, even the Seven Princes can see this, what about being as shrewd as the emperor, can't see it?
This is also the reason why he didn't continue to dig deeper, he knew Chen Xiao, and understood that Chen Xiao would not beat the second prince for no reason!
Therefore, there must be clues to this matter, it is not good to ask in public, give the second prince a step, but also a step for Chen Xiao, and a step for the face of the royal family.
Thinking of this, the emperor took the initiative to open the topic and took out a few copies of the recital in his hand and talked about it emphatically.
The content of the excerpts is nothing more than the disaster report in some surrounding areas, as well as the management of border passes, as well as the management of the cities sent out by the southern Xinjiang country.
In addition, there are some trivial things, and after all these things are discussed, it is already noon. Recommended ReadingTV//
When the emperor left, he asked Chen Xiao to stay and eat together.
In the eyes of the ministers, it was just that the emperor wanted to leave the future colt for a meal!
But in Chen Xiao's view, this is not the case.
He knew that the emperor would definitely ask him about the second prince!
Sure enough, he said it was dinner, but he went to the imperial study.
After entering the imperial study, Chen Xiao licked his face and said:
"Didn't Your Majesty say lunch? How did you get to the Imperial Study? Wouldn't it be nice to eat here? ”
The emperor glanced at Chen Xiao, snorted and said:
"You beat my son again, and you still want to eat? Do you want to eat the board? ”
Chen Xiao smiled awkwardly and said, "I really can't hide anything from you, in your place, I don't even have the mind to quibble." ”
The emperor snorted in a nasal voice and said, "You can't be vague here, let's say, what's going on?" ”
Chen Xiao stood honestly and said:
"Last night, after the dinner, I was cut off by the second prince on the street. He asked me to assist him...... You get the idea! ”
"But I didn't really want to get involved in these things, so I refused. There have been a few times with such rejections, but he doesn't seem to be giving up.
And last night, he was very adamant, and if I didn't want to help him, I would be dead, so I let his men kill me.
I could only resist, so I beat the second prince, Your Majesty, I did this, it should be right from my point of view. ”
The Emperor's frowning brow slowly stretched a little, and said:
"In this way, it has become a trivial matter for you to beat him, but he did it. It's not wise in my opinion. ”
Chen Xiao smiled and said, "If he knew that I told you about this, he would definitely regret hiding it this morning, after all, you know everything, but he suffered a dumb loss!" ”
The emperor snorted and said, "With your character, didn't you take the initiative to provoke this incident in the morning court today, didn't you clearly want to tell me that you beat him?" It's really not uncommon for you to get cheap and sell well. ”
Chen Xiao smiled awkwardly and said, "Your Majesty, can we eat then?" ”
The emperor was helpless and said: "The imperial dining room is being prepared, by the way, I didn't let you go, I wanted you to check the Arsenal Division well!" ”
Chen Xiao also remembered and said, "Your Majesty, this Arsenal Division, why do you doubt it?" ”
