Chapter 183: Beaten

Zhao Chong was heartbroken, and looked at Xiao Xuanrui with great pity: "Rui'er, it is naturally understandable for you to do this, you have always been benevolent and generous, and the ministers naturally know your hard work." However, the people of the General's Mansion can't take it for granted, let you kneel here and don't care. All the people who guard the spirits and sacrifice, the people of the General's Mansion should set up a white shed for you and pave the futon...... "They ignore you like this, isn't this a blow to the royal family and the face of the saint? When the minister came in the morning, His Majesty was already angry...... Now, you have been kneeling here for a day and a night, and the wind and cold are so cold that even your iron body can't stand it. The disaster caused by Xiao Xuanyi, the people of the General's Mansion, why did they take their anger on Rui'er? I'm afraid, they don't want to anger you, Rui'er, but blame Your Majesty in their hearts......" Zhao Chong's words were not serious, and he rose directly to the emperor. The courtiers standing around whispered in agreement. They are all in the line of King Rui, and they are all looking forward to Zhao Chong, what is Zhao Chong's idea this time, how do they not know? The operation of the Right Prime Minister and King Rui is nothing more than an attempt to ruin the reputation of the General's Mansion among the people, so as to enhance the prestige of King Rui and the Zhao family. There were some people in the crowd who were planted by Zhao Chong, deliberately guiding the direction of the wind and inducing the people. "Lord Right is right, the people of the General's Mansion are blatantly despising the royal family...... King Rui is too good to speak, the death of General Zhenguo and the Yun family army, the responsibility is not on King Rui, the people in the General's Mansion are angry with King Rui, this is a bit too much, right? ”

"I'm afraid it's really like what the right minister said, it's not that he is angry with King Rui, but that he is dissatisfied with the emperor" "The emperor has punished Xiao Xuanyi, and Xiao Xuanyi also committed suicide in fear of crime, and His Majesty lost a son for this, which can be regarded as selflessness and justice." The dust has settled on this matter, what do the people in the General's Mansion want? Do you really want to force King Rui to death again and let His Majesty kill all his sons? ”

"Shhhh I heard that Your Majesty heard that Xiao Xuanyi died, and he is sick today and has been bedridden. ”

"In the end, it's my own son, Your Majesty is also flesh and blood, how can you not be sad."

"The General's Mansion really shouldn't have to make any more inches and persecute King Rui too much......" "That's it, that's it...... Now that the case has been tried clearly, it really shouldn't be held on......" Xiao Xuanrui lowered his head, listening to the whispers of those people, and a little dark smile appeared in his eyes. Zhao Chong sighed, and made a gesture to help Xiao Xuanrui get up: "Rui'er, get up, the General's Mansion is so rude to you, presumably even if you kneel here to death, they won't accept your affection." ”

"Your Majesty is sick now, and as a prince, you should enter the palace to serve the sick...... Loyal ministers should be appeased, but you can't lose filial piety. ”

Xiao Xuanrui knelt for a day and a night, which was almost the limit of his body. He didn't plan to continue kneeling, otherwise, his life would have to be confessed here. Now that his grandfather has laid a staircase for him, he naturally wants to go down the ladder. The emperor is sick and wants to enter the palace to serve the sick, this is the best step. Xiao Xuanrui raised his head and looked at Zhao Chong with a worried face: "Grandfather, is my father's condition serious?" Erchen is really unfilial, and he only learned about it now......" Zhao Chong patted the back of his hand: "It's too late to learn now...... Let's go to the palace to see Your Majesty. Your Majesty also feels sorry for you, you have knelt here for a day and a night, and your sincerity to General Zhenguo is enough......" Xiao Xuanrui's eyes were red, he nodded slowly, his legs and feet were weak, he leaned on Zhao Chong's body, and slowly stood up. "If it weren't for my father's illness, this king would still have to continue to kneel. Well, when General Zhenguo is buried, this king will come to the funeral again. ”

Perhaps he had been kneeling on the ground for too long, his legs ached like pins and needles, and he was about to fall to the ground again as soon as he stood up. Chu Ying hurriedly stepped forward and helped Zhao Chong, which stabilized Xiao Xuanrui's figure. The surrounding people watched that King Rui had endured such great suffering, and they all felt that King Rui lived up to the name of virtue...... For a while, King Rui's reputation unconsciously rose a lot. This bitter plan was not done in vain. The goal was achieved, and Xiao Xuanrui naturally would not stay and continue to suffer. Chu Ying helped him, and just as he was about to climb into the carriage, Xiao Tingyan put his hands behind his back and strode out from the mansion. "Imperial nephew, are you leaving? That's right, isn't this kind of suffering something that you, a prince, can bear? If you leave, the people in the General's Mansion will be able to relax. After all, you are the prince, what do you want to do, no matter how inappropriate others feel, they can't stop you. ”

"However, the words of the right minister just now are obviously misleading, and this king, as the fiancΓ© of the lord of Taiping County, has the responsibility to explain to you some specific situations."

Xiao Xuanrui's body stiffened, and he slowly turned to look at Xiao Tingyan. "What does Uncle Huang mean by this?"

Xiao Tingyan didn't even look at him, and even called Steward Yun to come over. "Steward Cloud, you explain to everyone what happened yesterday. Don't let people seize an opportunity to deliberately put a hat on the general's head. It seems that the General's Mansion has never disrespected the royal family, disrespected the emperor, right? ”

Steward Yun's eyes were red. He knelt on the ground and said slowly: "Yesterday, King Rui came to the door of the general's mansion, and knelt in front of the door without saying a word, saying that he wanted to atone for his sins and guard the general's soul. Although our fourth young lady didn't say anything at the time, she ordered the old slave afterwards to persuade the prince to let him ......go back." "The prince is so golden and noble, how can he guard the general's spirit, how can he spoil himself so much? The old slave came over to persuade the prince, and also asked people to arrange some care matters, who knew that the prince would not look at the old slave. The guards beside him also slapped the old slave for this. said that the old slave should not be nosy, this is the prince using a bitter trick to win the sympathy and pity of the public and win the hearts of the people. ”

"When the old slave heard this, where did he dare to ask again, so he had to pretend to be deaf and dumb, and let the prince kneel at the door of our general's mansion. He is a prince, what does he want to do, how can our little general's mansion be able to ask? Just now, the right minister said that the general's mansion treats the prince harshly, which is completely distorted by the facts. We want to take care of the prince, but the prince won't let it......" Steward Yun was extremely aggrieved, and couldn't help crying in front of so many people. For a moment, everyone's faces changed. This housekeeper is really strong, and he ruthlessly reveals King Rui's thoughts...... A bitter trick, a distorted truth, the people present, but those who have a little understanding, are gradually recalled.
