Chapter 497: True Colors Exposed

Seeing Emperor Showa angrily scolding them with an ugly face, Fusheng was naturally worried about his body, and hurriedly knelt down to Emperor Showa's lap, constantly pleading: "Your Majesty, the old slave and Commander Xiao are all Your Majesty's people, and everything they do is for Your Majesty; The old slave knows that His Majesty really loves His Royal Highness the Prince, so he has high hopes for His Royal Highness the Prince, but the old slave thinks that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a very assertive person, as long as His Majesty gives him a little guidance, he will know what he should do. ”

"And Commander Xiao, he grew up with your own hands, you know best what kind of person he is; This time, it is not his fault that Commander Xiao has made repeated mistakes in handling the affairs of Chu Shizi, but please also ask Your Majesty to give him a chance to atone for his sins for the sake of being loyal to him over the years; Your Majesty, if you think about it carefully, Commander Xiao is really excusable, even if he has no great achievements over the years, but he has never made a big mistake, if you really decide to abandon him, the old slave can assert that you will definitely regret it in the future. ”

Regret? How dare this old thing say he will regret it?

Emperor Showa stared at Fusheng with tears in his eyes, this old minion who used to be an old slave who had told him a face, now he dared to teach him a hard lesson, didn't he? These people thought that he had become a waste and was about to be buried in the loess, so they began to despise his decision and began to disobey him, didn't they?

Emperor Showa looked at the blessing life that was kneeling on the ground and kept begging for his blessings, but instead of giving birth to a soft heart of pity and softness in his heart, he became more and more irritable; He hated these minions and subordinates who gradually began to disobey him, and hated the feeling that his chest was about to tear when he was emotional.

He felt that he had become the state he was in today, and that everything was to blame on his decaying body; If he was still in the prime of life, how would these minions dare to say a 'no' to his orders?

After all, he's old, dead, and dying, so these people don't take him seriously, do they?

Emperor Showa felt that he had never felt so painful in his heart as he did now, he envied Xiao Gang who was kneeling on the ground, envied his youth, and envied him for having such a healthy physique; If he can run and jump like Xiao Gang, and do whatever he wants, who would dare to disobey him?

Emperor Showa gritted his teeth angrily, looked at Fusheng who was pleading, his eyes flashed with cruelty, and said: "Fusheng, for the sake of your many years of service, I don't care about you in general; But I don't want to keep this dog. ”

As he spoke, Emperor Showa pointed at Xiao Gang angrily, and said coldly and ruthlessly: "Back then, I raised him to let him do things for me by Ling'er's side, and now, he has feelings for Ling'er, if he is allowed to continue to stay by Ling'er's side, he will only spoil my good deeds, a useless dog that has betrayed, what is the use of me asking him to do it?" Do you know what happens to waste? It is to be discarded; The moment his mission failed, he should have known that he would have such an outcome. ”

Speaking of this, Emperor Showa looked at Xiao Gang, a ruthless smile hooked on the corner of his mouth, and asked: "Xiao Gang, Manager Fu thinks you are excusable, now, you come to tell Manager Fu, should you die?" ”

Xiao Gang knew that he had always been a dog for others to send in Emperor Showa's heart, but when this kind of words were really said by Emperor Showa, he really realized what it meant to be desperate and heartbreaking; In fact, in his heart, he respects the Son of Heaven in front of him very much, so even if he betrays the prince and asks him to do something he doesn't like, he will do his best.

didn't expect that after doing so much, he was still a dog in his eyes who could be discarded at any time; Since it is a dog, where does it have the right to control its own destiny.

Over the years, he should really thank him, at least, the person in front of him, let him live this dog to be in his twenties.

Xiao Gang kowtowed deeply towards Emperor Showa, and the tears that had been rolling in his eyes also slipped heavily from his eyes with this movement.

He understood the meaning of Emperor Showa's words, and his voice choked up: "The guilty minister deserves death, and he asks the emperor to give him death." ”

"Commander Xiao!" Fusheng shouted Xiao Gang with a trembling voice.

After hearing Xiao Gang's words, Emperor Showa raised his white eyebrows, looked at Fusheng, and said, "Did you hear that?" I didn't persecute him, he did it all of his own free will. ”

Fusheng's body suddenly fell to the ground, and the dust that he had been holding in his hand also fell to the ground; He looked at the emperor in front of him with lost eyes, and he slowly realized that he really didn't know him anymore.

Did he really take him for a fool? How could he not hear the despair and pain in Xiao Gang's tone and the coercion and despicability in the tone of his high-ranking emperor.

It's changed, it's really all changed! All the people have begun to change beyond recognition.

Emperor Showa looked at the two people who didn't dare to struggle in front of him anymore, and then he breathed a sigh of relief; Yes! Look at that! He just wants everyone to see and feel, in this world of Great Wei, he is the master of all things, a god who overlooks the world, he will not allow anyone to dare to say a word in front of his decision, if someone does this, it is a provocation to the power of his Son of Heaven, and he will definitely pay the price.

Just when Emperor Showa was complacent, leaning on the table behind him to support his fat body and couldn't laugh a few times, a clear and gentle voice came from the door of the hall.

"What did you just say? Xiao Gang, are you your father's person? ”

Hearing this voice, the three people present were all shocked, especially Xiao Gang, who was kneeling on the ground, and Emperor Showa, who was standing on the side, both of them looked at the man who walked in from the door of the hall in surprise.

Zhao Ling showed an expression of disbelief, looking at Xiao Gang who was kneeling on the top and Emperor Showa with an ugly face, he opened his mouth, but he didn't know where to start.

Because, the words he heard while standing at the door of the temple just now were too shocking to him, if everything he heard was true, then, all these years, has he been living under the surveillance of that person? His every move, and even his decisions, are subject to him?

Compared with Zhao Ling's shock, Xiao Gang was even more shameless, he didn't expect this day to come so soon, and he didn't expect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to know his true identity under such circumstances; Thinking of the prince's trust and sympathy for him over the years, he really has no face to face the prince; At this moment, he really wanted to take out the saber at his waist and wipe his neck, and apologize for his sins with death.

As for Emperor Showa, he quickly rolled his eyes, speculating on how much Zhao Ling had heard their conversation, and if he knew everything, then how would he explain it; But if he was fortunate that Zhao Ling only heard a little bit of content, how could he hide it.

However, Zhao Ling's next words made the plan in Emperor Showa's heart completely empty.

"Father, what happened to Chu He, including Zhou Yanran's death, is it all related to you?"

Although this is a question asked by Zhao Ling, Emperor Showa knows that he can't hide it anymore, this son of his is too good, sometimes the more he hides it, the more he can expose more horses and feet in front of him, rather than embarrassing justification, it is better to admit it directly.

Emperor Showa sat down on his knees, looked at Zhao Ling, whose face was indistinguishable, adjusted his mentality, squeezed out a kind smile on his face, beckoned to Zhao Ling, and said, "Ling'er, come here, my father will tell you everything, okay?" ”

This time, no matter what Emperor Showa called Zhao Ling, Zhao Ling stood motionless, but looked at his father in front of him with unfamiliar eyes, as if he was knowing him for the first time.

This kind of Zhao Ling made Emperor Showa unhappy, but soon, he suppressed the displeasure in his heart, and he told himself that the more he had to deal with it calmly at this time, otherwise, everything would be wasted.

"Ling'er, you have to believe that your father has a hard time doing all this, and the reason why your father is doing all this is because of you and for your good."

Zhao Ling listened in surprise to Emperor Showa's incomprehensible words, what is it called for his good? What do you mean by doing this for him?

Could it be that he killed Zhou Yanran for him? Blaming Chu He is also for him? Watching him run around for this case, and being played around by him like a fool, is it also for him?

Zhao Ling suddenly thought of something, raised his eyes, and looked at Emperor Showa with a compelling expression: "The drowning of Zhu Cheng and the assassination of Luo Cheng were also arranged by my father, isn't it?" ”

Listening to Zhao Ling's questioning, Emperor Showa felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart, did this child come to question his father for the sake of these unrelated people?

Sure enough, the sons are all raised by others, and right now, this rebel son is not just for some inconsequential people to doubt and criticize him as his biological father.

Emperor Showa was also faintly angry, looked at Zhao Ling, who was standing in the distance and refused to approach him, and said coldly: "Yes, not bad." Zhou Yanran was killed by me, I just knew that Chu He was innocent, but I still ordered someone to put him in prison, as for that guy and Luo Cheng, they became like this, and I sent someone to do it; Ling'er, you know what you're going to do to me with all this? What can you do with me? Child, don't be stupid and naΓ―ve, I am the Son of Heaven, and whatever I do is right; Even if it's to kill someone, or to frame someone; Do you understand? ”

Zhao Ling looked at Emperor Zhaohe's unfamiliar face, he really couldn't believe that the man talking to him in front of him would be his father, he always thought that his father was a mediocre but very warm person, and he would not rely on the power in his hands to do something criticized; Now it seems that his thoughts, as well as his previous understanding, are really too simple and ignorant.

He has never really known his father, never.
