Chapter 197: The Disaster of Innocence

Looking at his sons kneeling in a circle, Emperor Jingming kept his face calm for a while and was silent.

Always give them some time to reflect!

Several princes were even more confused.

What did my father do when he called them all here? Looking at this posture is certainly not praise.

But they didn't do anything bad, at most they heard that Lao Qi ran to Shuntianfu to complain, and they despised and ridiculed them behind their backs.

While the drums were beating in the hearts of all the princes, Emperor Jingming finally spoke: "What have you all done today?" ”

The princes looked at each other.

It's a bit scary for my father to ask in such a general way.

Emperor Jingming's gaze fell on the eldest prince.

The eldest prince smiled bitterly in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Erchen has been in the palace all the time, and after breakfast, he went to the garden for a walk, and then read a book for a while. ”

Emperor Jingming looked at the crown prince.

"Erchen has been in the East Palace, and I went to the garden for a walk after breakfast, and I also read a book for a whileβ€”β€”"

Emperor Jingming interrupted the prince's words: "What about other than these? Didn't do anything special? ”

A drop of sweat trickled down the prince's forehead.

No, he just met a palace maid with a good posture in the garden early in the morning, pulled people to sleep in the flowers, and his father still had to make a big deal about it?

"Huh?" Seeing that the prince did not answer for a long time, Emperor Jingming frowned.

When the prince thought of Jin Liangwei, he extinguished his confused thoughts, and said vaguely: "Erchen...... I talked to a palace maid and ......"

"Poof." I don't know who couldn't help laughing, and the princes hurriedly lowered their heads.

Emperor Jingming was so angry, he really didn't think about the assassination of Lao Qi on the prince, after all, the prince was the prince, and he didn't get involved in the group fight, so he couldn't do anything about it.

I never expected that the prince would be so ridiculous and lustful!

Resisting the impulse to attack immediately, Emperor Jingming looked at the third prince: "The third child, what about you?" ”

The biological mother of the third prince has a humble status, so she has developed a cautious and cautious temperament, and when she heard this, she replied: "Erchen took Brother Fu to ride a few laps in the martial arts arena in the mansion. ”

Emperor Jingming was interested when he heard it: "Uh, does Brother Fu already know how to ride a horse?" ”

The other princes pouted secretly.

The third child will be clattering, but unfortunately the mother concubine is a palace maid, and no matter how hard she is, she can't be tough.

"Just starting to learn."

Emperor Jingming nodded.

There is finally a reliable one, except for the prince, he actually doesn't have high requirements for his other sons, just don't do anything wrong.

Next, Emperor Jingming asked the four princes again, and the five princes all finished their drafts, but Emperor Jingming skipped him and asked the six princes and the eighth princes.

The heart of the five princes suddenly went up and down.

Why did his father bypass him? With his understanding of his father, it is unlikely that it is because he is relieved that he will be left to the end to clean up-

Sure enough, when Emperor Jingming asked all the other princes, his face suddenly sank when he looked at the five princes: "Tell me what you did today!" ”

When the others heard this, they looked at the five princes with wrong eyes.

After a long time, the culprit was Lao Wu.

"Erchen, Erchen didn't do anything." The five princes were nervous, and their minds went blank.

Yu Jin knelt in the corner, a sneer overflowing from the corner of his mouth.

He said that for the time being, if you can't get people who are worried about Ah Xiang, it's not bad to collect some interest first.

"Didn't do anything? Then why did you appear near Bird Alley on Qingtong Street? ”

The fifth prince was stunned for a moment.

What Qingtong Street Bird Alley? He obviously went to the vicinity of Dongpingbo Mansion.

"Say!"

Emperor Jingming's cold drink frightened the five princes and blurted out: "The son doesn't have it." ”

Emperor Jingming became even more angry when he heard this, and his original two points of suspicion became five points: "Are you still pretending to be stupid at this time?" Are you a brocade guard? ”

The fifth prince was extremely wronged: "Erchen really didn't go to Qingtong Street Bird Hutongβ€”β€”"

Wait, Bird Alley is a little familiar.

The eyes of the five princes subconsciously turned, and they inadvertently swept to Yu Jin, who was not far away, and was stunned for a moment, and then his face changed.

He remembered that the place where Lao Qi settled was there, and after coming out of the Zongren Mansion, he also sent someone to inquire, thinking of finding an opportunity to clean up that kid fiercely.

Emperor Jingming looked at the fifth prince full of disappointment, and said lightly: "Today, the seventh child was assassinated near his home, have you heard?" ”

"Erchen heard about it." All the princes said one after another, and the eyes that looked at the five princes were more subtle.

The fifth prince reacted after realizing it: "Father, the assassination of the seventh brother has nothing to do with the sons!" ”

Why is it bad luck to meet that kid? The fifth prince subconsciously looked at Yu Jin.

Yu Jin rolled his eyes and smiled at him.

The fifth prince's head buzzed.

It's over, he can't even wash it by jumping into the Yellow River today.

Looking at the fifth son who didn't admit himself, Emperor Jingming was angry: "I just asked why you appeared there!" ”

If he really wants to find out, how could he let Jin Liangwei take over the matter, the fifth child doesn't have a brain!

"Erchenβ€”" The fifth prince opened his mouth, unable to find a suitable excuse for a while.

Of course he can't admit that Lao Qi was assassinated for such a big crime, he didn't do it in the first place, who knows which good person is doing the right thing for heaven, but he can't tell the truth when he thinks about the noble girl of Bofu.

"Erchen...... It's just idle and nothing, and I went to see the Yongchang Bofu for funeral. ”

Seeing Emperor Jingming's tense face, the fifth prince hurriedly explained: "I don't know if my father has heard that Yongchangbo and his wife died on the same day, and the sons think it's quite unusual, just-"

"Enough!" Emperor Jingming couldn't bear to interrupt the words of the fifth prince, "From today on, you will be grounded in the Lu Palace's mansion for three months and fined one year's salary!" β€œ

"Father, the son is wronged, the son can swear to the sky, and he will never send someone to assassinate the seventh brother!"

Emperor Jingming resisted the urge to raise his foot and kick the five princes away, and reprimanded: "Idiot, if you dare to kill each other, do you think it's just this punishment?" ”

The other princes shook their heads secretly.

Thank you for being so stupid and let them get scolded less.

"Remember, this is a punishment for not cultivating your virtues! Someone in someone else's family dies unexpectedly, not only do you not sympathize but also go to see the strange, is this what a prince should do? ”

"Erchen is wrong." The five princes were depressed, and there was a feeling of disaster falling from the sky.

"And you!" Emperor Jingming's gaze slowly swept over the faces of his sons, and his face sank like water, "Be cautious in your words and deeds, be gentle and frugal, brothers and brothers, don't forget these qualities!" ”

"The sons and daughters obey the teachings of their father."

The princes understood that what kind of prudence and prudence, gentleness and frugality were nonsense, and brothers, friends and brothers were the purpose of being called over today to punish and kneel.

Father suspects that one of them will harm Lao Qi, and he will be honest after beating them in the future.

It's a disaster!

This thought came to the minds of all the princes, but when they saw the five princes crying with sad faces, they felt relieved again.

There is still a comparison, compared to them, the fifth child is obviously the key suspect of his father.

"Let's all go down, the prince stays!"

At this moment, the mood of the princes was a little better.

Well, as long as the prince is unlucky, they will be relieved.

Prince: "......" is not good for the year, he will go to incense one day! Read the latest chapters, stay tuned
