Because the Gu family is involved in the major crime of rebellion, everyone in the Gu family may participate, so they must all be arrested and brought to justice. Now this matter has involved the three princes again, so the emperor ordered Jinyiwei to take people to the Three Princes' Mansion to search.

This search searched out the private prison that had been well hidden, and also found the bodies of Xiao's mother and son in the private prison.

Setting up a prison privately is not a trivial matter, and the third prince is in big trouble this time.

As soon as he thought of what he was going to face next, the third prince couldn't wait to screw off the heads of the group of rice buckets under his hands.

Before he finished venting his anger, someone from the palace announced that he had entered the palace.

After the third prince entered the palace, the emperor was not in a hurry to see him, but was dealing with the affairs of the Gu family and the king of Chu. The three princes honestly knelt outside the imperial study.

At this time, it was already late at night, and Concubine Liu Guifei had already fallen asleep, but when she heard that the third prince had been summoned into the palace and knelt outside the imperial study, she hurriedly got up and asked people to inquire what was going on.

After the palace people told her the news that the investigation had come back, Concubine Liu Guifei was so anxious that her eyes darkened.

This mushy thing! I told him before that I must not be angry and move Gu Xin'er, but I didn't expect him to promise so well that he would privately send someone to assassinate him!

Since you have done it, why not kill people at once, what's the use of doing those little actions! Not only did they fail to kill people, but they were caught by someone and dug such a big hole.

Originally, she was quite happy after knowing about the Gu family's affairs today, and felt that she had saved her energy to clean up Gu Xin'er, but she really didn't expect it!

Although the three Xiao mothers and sons are members of the Gu family, they died before the court convicted.

Set up a private prison, three lives, no matter which one it is, it is enough to make the emperor disgusted with the three princes.

The other party's move really wants to pit the three princes to death.

Concubine Liu Guifei didn't have time to think about whether this pit was dug by Xiao Jingchen or the Shen family, and she was only anxious about how to calm the emperor's anger.

After thinking about it, Liu Guifei had to ask someone to change her into plain clothes, rushed to the imperial study, and knelt side by side with the three princes.

She has been in the palace for many years, and she still knows the emperor's temperament very well. At this time, pleading or shirking and saying that he didn't know about things like that would only make the emperor even more disgusted, only by taking the initiative to admit his mistake and letting the emperor vent his anger first. As for the rest, I will slowly find a way to restore the image of the third prince in the emperor's mind.

In the end, it is the emperor's own flesh and blood, and there are so many years of love, the emperor will not really kill him.

The third prince looked at Liu Guifei who was kneeling next to him, and felt very guilty, Liu Guifei had been persuading him not to be impulsive first, but he couldn't swallow that breath. He thought that as long as he didn't make much fanfare, let people sneak into the Gu family to cause some accidents and kill Gu Xin'er, anyway, it was something that happened in the Gu family, and no one would suspect him. But he didn't expect someone to use this matter to trap him.

He knelt here and thought about it for a while, and finally put the suspect's target on Xiao Jingchen and the Shen family.

He calculated that Lin Ruan's matter failed, and they were not stupid, so they would naturally figure out what was going on. The Shen family has always protected their shortcomings, and Xiao Jingchen is also a temperament that must be retribution, so they may all cheat themselves.

Xiao Jingchen, the Shen family, are all waiting for this prince!

Liu Guifei saw that his expression was still full of unwillingness, so she reprimanded in a low voice: "At this time, you have the heart to think about that!" You still have to think about how to make your father and emperor get rid of you lightly! ”

The third prince gritted his teeth: "Mother, let's go, I'll take care of this matter myself." ”

Liu Guifei shook her head lightly, and her voice was two points louder: "Although this matter is your fault, I am also responsible for my mother." If I hadn't indulged and spoiled you too much, I wouldn't have allowed you to develop such a temperament. Therefore, I will also ask your father for sin, and from now on, I will accompany you to receive punishment for every mistake you make, until you really grow up and do not make mistakes again. ”

The third prince felt sour: "Mother concubine ......"

Liu Guifei said earnestly: "Emperor, when will you really grow up and not let me and your father worry about it?" Do you know how difficult it will be for your father to do tonight's events when they reach the previous dynasty? No matter how your father punishes you tonight, it is your responsibility, you are not allowed to have half a word of complaint, otherwise, I am afraid that my mother will not have the face to see your father in the future. ”

The third prince also understood Concubine Liu's plan at this time, and said with a choked voice: "Mother, the son knows that he is wrong, and the son will not complain about his father, this is all caused by the son himself, and it is the son's responsibility." Mother, hurry up, this matter is the son's fault, and the son bears it himself, even if he is degraded to the common son. ”

Liu Guifei covered her face and cried, "It would be nice if you understood these truths earlier." ”

The third prince turned around and kowtowed heavily to Concubine Liu: "Mother, my son is ashamed of your teachings and that of his father." ”

The conversation between the mother and son was not loud, but it did not prevent Xiao Jingchen from listening to it in the imperial study. Regarding the inner dialogue between the mother and son, Xiao Jingchen just wanted to roll his eyes.

Liu Guifei is really smart, and she actually used a bitter trick. As long as these words reach the ears of the emperor, the emperor will be angry and punish the three princes at this time, and he will forgive him soft-heartedly later.

Although the emperor couldn't hear the words of their mother and son clearly at this time, the palace was full of the emperor's "ears" and "eyes", and it was only a matter of time before these words reached the emperor.

Xiao Jingchen sneered in his heart, although this bitter plan is good, it depends on whether he is willing to let them play this strategy to the best level.

He has a lot of material for the three princes in his hands, and if he slowly releases it in the future, it will be difficult for the emperor to calm his anger.

After reading the confession that Xiao Jingchen brought up, the emperor slapped the table heavily: "This Gu family is really bold!" actually colluded with the King of Chu under my nose to deliver the message of the court for the King of Chu! And this King of Chu! I treat him well, but he has repeatedly coveted my throne, challenged my bottom line, and even had contacts with the Beidi country, no wonder the border passes have been repeatedly committed over the years, and countless manpower, material and financial resources have been lost. ”

The emperor's face turned pale, and he shouted: "Jing Chen! ”

"The minister is here."

"I order you to immediately lead the Jinyi Guard and the forbidden army to arrest the King of Chu, and if there is any recalcitrant resistance, you will be killed!"

Xiao Jingchen knelt down to receive the order, and then took the forbidden army token given to him by the emperor and exited the imperial study.

When I came out, I saw Liu Guifei's mother and son kneeling side by side in front of the door. is more deeply exposed, and the mother and son look a little embarrassed.

Xiao Jingchen left without squinting, and after walking a few steps, he heard the palace man behind him: "Guifei Niangniang, the third prince, the emperor announced that the two of you have entered the palace." ”
