Chapter 14: Retraction
Who knew that when the emperor heard this, he didn't laugh angrily, "You are so bold that you actually asked me to explain clearly?" Do you know that it's been a long time since anyone has dared to speak to me like that. β
Zhu Ajiao tilted her head and said, "So what? Hum. β
Li Yuankang had already walked over at this time, and suddenly, with a "poof", he knelt down in front of the emperor.
"Please forgive your father, your son is not filial, because he is afraid of the concubine, so he can only pretend to be stupid, so as to attract his father to come." Li Yuankang said, "However, the sons did not have the intention of deceiving their father. β
"Oh, I see, you're not really stupid." Zhu Ajiao deliberately made a fuss.
Li Yuankang and the emperor have obviously ignored Zhu Ajiao.
"What? Why are you afraid of the lady? The emperor's two thick eyebrows frowned.
"Father, because, Erchen saw very clearly last night that the person who drugged Erchen was Shufei Niangniang!"
It turned out that Li Yuankang was about to rest last night, when Concubine Shuniang suddenly came over with ginseng soup, saying that she wanted to make up for Li Yuankang's body.
Li Yuankang took a few sips out of affection, and felt that the taste was a little different, so he didn't drink it and put it there.
was suspicious in her heart, and later Concubine Shuniang filled another bowl of soup and insisted that Li Yuankang drink it.
And when serving the soup, Li Yuankang inadvertently saw Concubine Shuniang secretly drugging it.
Of course, Li Yuankang only put the bowl of soup in his mouth, and when the lady left, he vomited it and didn't drink it. But he also knew what the lady was going to do to him.
The emperor was skeptical, "Since you suspect that Concubine Shu did it, why didn't you expose her on the spot?" β
"Concubine Shu is the adoptive mother of her son, even if she has no feelings, she will not harm her son, after all, if her son is good, Concubine Shu will follow suit. Even Erchen didn't understand, why was she obsessed with harming Erchen? Therefore, Erchen suspected that behind the Shufei Niangniang, there was a hidden mastermind behind the scenes, and a big secret was hidden, and Erchen didn't dare to act rashly, so he pretended to be stupid to avoid her first, besides, his father hadn't been to see Erchen for a long time, and Erchen only dared to say this when he saw his father, because only his father could really protect Erchen! Li Yuankang shed tears as he spoke, saying it so touchingly that the emperor was moved.
Even Zhu Ajiao almost believed that what Li Yuankang said was from the bottom of her heart!
But Zhu Ajiao also understood when she thought about it.
Where is Li Yuankang a man who is easy to cry, he is just showing the emperor.
The emperor has not seen Li Yuankang alone for a long time.
Since the death of the empress, there seems to be an invisible estrangement between the emperor and Li Yuankang, and the relationship between the father and son has become weaker and weaker.
The Son of Heaven does not lack sons, what is lacking is a son who can be liked by the Son of Heaven.
Therefore, Li Yuankang could only use tears to gain the emperor's love again.
Sure enough, the emperor came over and personally helped Li Yuankang up, "You get up, you are the crown prince, you are my good son, you should not be afraid of an imperial concubine." You shouldn't cry like this for such a trivial matter. It's also strange that I rarely care about you. β
Li Yuankang stood up and said: "Father and Emperor Hugh blame himself, everything is the fault of his sons." β
Zhu Ajiao found a place to sit down, listening to the father and son, constantly blaming each other, and her ears heard the calloon.
"Yuankang, Concubine Shu was poisoned, did you really see it with your own eyes? It stands to reason that with my years of observation of Concubine Shu, Concubine Shu will definitely not be such a vicious person. The Emperor sighed and said.
"Father, it is true that the sons and daughters witnessed it with their own eyes, I am afraid that what Concubine Shu did to her father before was all a disguise, and she also asked her father to be the master of her son's kindness." Li Yuankang was going to cry again.
Zhu Ajiao exclaimed in her heart, yes, this prince's brother acts more like her.
"Okay, I know, I'll look it up. However, for your safety, I have decided to restore your fiefdom. "The emperor himself knows that the reason why some people in the harem look down on Li Yuankang and murder Li Yuankang is not because Li Yuankang has never been liked by the emperor and is not taken seriously.
Even in the past, Li Yuankang had a dispute with the emperor for the sake of the people's porridge, and the emperor was angry and took away Li Yuankang's fiefdom, leaving Li Yuankang with an empty title of prince, and even removed the guards of the East Palace, not allowing Li Yuankang to leave the East Palace for a long time, leaving Li Yuankang to fend for himself.
So much so that others feel that there is an opportunity to take advantage of the opportunity to take the position of the crown prince.
This time, Li Yuankang pretended to be pitiful, but it inspired the emperor's pity.
After all, it's his own son. It's still a motherless child.
The emperor was already guilty in his heart.
It's just that it was because Li Yuankang always contradicted the emperor before.
Now that Li Yuankang didn't contradict the emperor, and he cried so pitifully, how could the emperor not pity him?
Therefore, he returned all the things he had taken in the past to Li Yuankang.
Then the emperor was leaving, "I'm afraid you're tired these days, you can rest first, I will go to see the Queen Mother first, and you will keep a wake with me tonight." β
"Yes, Father." Li Yuankang's face was still stained with tears.
"Uncle Emperor, goodbye." Zhu Ajiao smiled and waved her hand.
Li Yuankang pursed his lips, with a look of disgust on his face.
The emperor smiled and said: "Yuankang, she, but the fiancΓ©e designated by the Queen Mother to you, you have to treat her well, don't dislike her stupidly." β
Li Yuankang glanced at Zhu Ajiao and reluctantly responded: "Yes, congratulations to my father." β
The emperor is gone.
Zhu Ajiao patted Li Yuankang's hand and said with a smile: "Brother Prince, you are really good, you played a fool before, and now you play a pitiful worm, what do you want to play next?" β
"You don't speak, no one treats you as dumb." Li Yuankang glanced at Zhu Ajiao coldly, turned around and sat on the bed, picked up a book and read it, and didn't want to pay attention to Zhu Ajiao at all.
Zhu Ajiao also stuck over and sat next to Li Yuankang, "Brother Prince, what's so good about the book?" Where do I look good? β
Li Yuankang remained motionless.
Zhu Ajiao's voice rose, "Brother Prince, I didn't expect you to be a villain who will take revenge!" β
"Can you be quiet, how can I take revenge?" Li Yuankang finally raised his head.
Looking at each other, Zhu Ajiao blinked, no, although his gaze was too oppressive, but Zhu Ajiao couldn't be defeated!
"I saved you, how can you ignore me? Do you want to start and give up? "Zhu Ajiao is right.
Li Yuankang said angrily: "When did I say that I ignored you?" I just want to read quietly for a while now. Well, in that case, I won't look at it. β
