Chi Xia was slapped in the face, tears rushed out instantly, and he covered his face and cried bitterly, "Your Majesty, the concubine has been by your side when you were the prince, and you are ...... actually beat the concubine for that slut, and the concubine couldn't live. ”

"Then die." The emperor said indifferently, then without looking at her, he turned around directly and walked towards the beauty.

Chi Xia's face turned blue and white, white and blue, knowing that it was useless for him to stay here, maybe he would be punished by the emperor, and after glaring at the beauty angrily, he stomped his feet and ran away quickly.

As soon as the ninth prince walked to the door of the main hall, he saw a figure rubbing himself away, he stopped, looked at the figure, and squinted his eyes thoughtfully.

"Lord Wang, you wait here, and let the slave go in and say goodbye." Xiao Anzi accompanied the smiling face and blocked the way of the Nine Princes.

He muttered in his heart, last time, he urged three times and invited four times, and the prince didn't want to come over, why did he send it to the door by himself today. His Majesty is still in it and the palace concubine can't figure it out, but he can't let the nine princes see it.

The Nine Princes put their hands behind him, smiled lightly, and said politely, "It's troublesome father-in-law, father-in-law will go by himself." ”

Faced with the courtesy of the Nine Princes, Xiao Anzi was flattered and turned around to report.

"Lao Jiu is here?" The Emperor frowned, then a hint of joy appeared on his face, "Please come in." ”

Xiao Anzi hesitantly glanced at the disheveled beauty on the couch, would it be inappropriate to let the Nine Princes see it like this.

The emperor noticed his gaze, thought for a moment, and said to the beauty, "You go down first." ”

The beauty replied delicately, put on her clothes, and left through another door. The emperor nodded very satisfied, this is called well-behaved, unlike Chi Xia, who was not bad at first, but then became more and more like a shrew, and now he has no eyes to see.

After the beauty left, the emperor himself tidied up, waved his hand and said, "Okay, it's okay, let Lao Jiu come in." ”

When the ninth prince came in, he first smelled a strong smell of fat powder, he glanced at it from the corner of his eye, and found that the couch was messy, and there were women's clothes scattered on it, and he immediately frowned, this imperial brother is getting more and more overplayed, do you think that after becoming the emperor, you can do whatever you want?

He was not very satisfied with this imperial brother, and now he was even more disdainful in his heart, but his face didn't show it at all, and he still saluted respectfully, "Brother courtier, see the imperial brother." ”

The emperor strode over, stretched out his hand to support the ninth prince, and said heartily, "Ninth brother, you have been gone for so long, the imperial brother wants to kill you, quickly, our brothers don't need these false courtesies." ”

The Ninth Prince smiled shallowly, "Brother Huang, the younger brother also misses you day and night. ”

The emperor pretended to be unhappy and frowned, "I don't think about me day and night and don't come back to see, this is all in the capital, and I have to urge you three times and four times, you don't look like you miss me." ”

The Ninth Prince lowered his head slightly in shame, hiding the cold light in his eyes, "Brother Huang doesn't understand, the younger brother thinks that you have a lot of opportunities and doesn't want to disturb you." ”

"You, you're just too polite, it's been like this since you were a child." In order to show his affection, the emperor deliberately pulled the ninth prince to sit down beside him, and asked with concern like a real elder brother, "Ninth brother, where did you come from, how have you been doing well all these years, have you been wronged?" ”

"Brother Chen's brother is very good, he goes around everywhere, and no one dares to bully his brother." Facing the emperor's questions, the nine princes answered them one by one, and at first glance, it really looked like a picture of brothers and friends. It's just that they all know that the undercurrent hidden under the calm has already been surging.

"That's good, that's good, Ninth Brother, you've been lazy for so long, and when you come back this time, it's time to help Brother Huang share some affairs." The emperor took the lead and couldn't hold it back, and quietly probed.

The Ninth Prince smiled bitterly and waved his hand, "Brother Huang, don't embarrass your brother, your brother left because he was impatient with these things, and you also know that his brother only wants to indulge in mountains and rivers, and will not deal with these important affairs of the court." ”

The emperor observed his words and found that the Ninth Prince was not like a joke, and he didn't seem to be interested in the affairs of the court, so he was very happy, but he pretended to be displeased and frowned, "You are my younger brother, and you have the same surname as me, how can you do nothing, so you have decided, don't leave when you come back this time." ”

"Brother Huang......" The Nine Princes seemed to be very embarrassed.

"I'm still your royal brother, isn't it? If yes, just listen to me and help me share my worries, ninth brother, you don't know, since I ascended the throne, I haven't had a good night's sleep for a long time. ”

"Why?" The Ninth Prince raised his eyelids in feigned surprise

The emperor sighed helplessly, "In this world, which thing does not need me to manage, which thing does not need me to ask, I am the first time to ascend the throne, and many old ministers are not convinced, alas." ”

The Ninth Prince carefully examined the emperor's expression and said worriedly, "The imperial brother didn't sleep well, his face was a little bad." ”

The emperor touched his face and took over the conversation, "Yes, people ask to see me every day in the middle of the night, and it's too difficult for me to get a good night's sleep." ”

After pondering for a while, the Nine Princes said tentatively, "Brother Chen heard that the traitorous party and traitors have not been completely captured so far, but the imperial brother is for this matter?" ”

In fact, the first emperor died very suddenly, and before that, a large number of officials in the capital were watching, and when the emperor suddenly announced the death of the first emperor and ordered people to go to the city to search for the rebels, they had no time to run, so the forbidden army was basically a catch.

The only ones who escaped were Xie Yutang and Chi Wan, who were also arrested last night. Thinking of this, the emperor's mood was extremely comfortable, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, "The traitors have all been caught." ”

"Congratulations to the Imperial Brother, congratulations to the Imperial Brother." The Nine Princes immediately stood up and congratulated the emperor.

The emperor smiled slightly, "It's also thanks to the emperor's brother, as soon as you come back, the last two traitors will be caught." ”

The Nine Princes' eyes widened in surprise, "There is such a thing, it can be seen that it is the emperor's brother Hongfu Qitian." ”

The Emperor laughed loudly, "You, this mouth is getting better and better. ”

The Ninth Prince was sure that Xie Yutang and Chi Wan had been arrested, but he still pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Since they have been caught, why hasn't the younger brother heard about the beheading of the traitor recently?" ”

"Because I haven't tried to kill them yet." The emperor took a sip of tea and said slowly.

"Why? Brother Huang and his ministers feel that it is better to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, otherwise there will be endless troubles. ”

Seeing the anxious appearance of the Nine Princes, the emperor smiled and said softly, "Don't worry, brother Huang, I won't kill them, I have my own plans in my heart." ”

The Nine Princes muttered disapprerovitously, "The younger brother doesn't know what the imperial brother has to worry about, but the younger brother only hopes that the imperial brother will not be harmed." ”

"No, they can't afford to make any waves, I don't want to kill them immediately, because I hate them so much that I want to slowly torture them to death." What the emperor said was an understatement, but the ruthlessness in his tone was so ruthless that even the Nine Princes could hear it.

He felt a pang in his heart, the emperor hated Xie Yutang and Chi Wan, then the two of them must have a hard time in prison, he had seen in the prison, those things that toss people are not something ordinary people can endure.

The Nine Princes were anxious, and their faces couldn't help but be a little confused.

"What is the imperial brother thinking?" The emperor obviously also noticed the other party's absent-mindedness, and asked inquiringly.

"The younger brother is thinking, the imperial brother is also excusable for this to do, that kind of person shouldn't let them have a good time, let them die easily, it's too cheap for them." Interrupted by the emperor, the Nine Princes were stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted and pretended to share their worries for the other party.

The emperor really ate this set, and personally poured a cup of tea for the ninth prince, "It's still the emperor's brother who understands me." ”

The two drank tea slowly, and the ninth prince thought of the next plan in his heart, he had to save the lives of the two first, as long as they stayed in the prison, he would always have a way to save people.

"Ninth brother." The emperor suddenly called out to the Nine Princes.

The Nine Princes raised their eyes slightly, and looked at each other with some doubts.

The Emperor looked sideways at him, and after a long moment, he chuckled, "Are you afraid of me?" ”

"Why are you afraid of Brother Huang?" The Nine Princes trembled in his heart, and asked calmly.

"I've put all my brothers in prison, aren't you afraid, you're next?" The emperor playfully rubbed the cup in his hand.

The Ninth Prince looked at the emperor seriously for a long time, and then shook his head firmly, "Brother Huang won't." ”

The emperor became interested and straightened up, "Why?" ”

"Because the younger brother didn't do anything wrong, the royal brother just punished those brothers who did the wrong thing, and it has nothing to do with the younger brother." The Ninth Prince shrugged his shoulders disappreciatively, and there was indeed no fear on his face.

The emperor's eyes lit up, and his voice became deeper and lower, "So, the ninth brother also thinks that those people are doing wrong?" ”

"Of course." The Ninth Prince nodded as a matter of course, his eyes full of trust, "I believe in the Imperial Brother." ”

Hearing this, the emperor finally showed a sincere smile, "Ninth brother, I didn't mistake you, you are really a good boy." ”

"The younger brother is not young anymore." The Nine Princes pouted unhappily, this gesture made it easier to win the emperor's trust.

And the emperor was happy in his heart, and he didn't care about his rebuttal, but just touched his head and said softly, "Here in me, you will always be a child." ”

The expression on the face of the ninth prince was shy, and he was actually vomiting in his heart, no wonder everyone, including the first emperor, looked at the wrong emperor, it turned out that he was so capable of pretending.

"Okay, but the younger brother still hopes that he can grow up as soon as possible, and then help the imperial brother."

"Silly boy, you're good enough to help me."

There was harmony between the two, and at this time, a minister asked to see him, and the emperor directly let him in.
