Chapter 99: The Scapegoat
With the Holy Emperor's questioning, the Empress's face also changed suddenly, a little more pale, but in the blink of an eye, it turned calm, pretending that nothing had happened.
The queen replied casually: "Your Majesty, I will hand over all the elixirs you gave to the Nine Emperors to Concubine Shu to manage!"
Concubine Shu is the mother of the five princes, the queen, as the master of the harem, is naturally the most powerful, all concubines want to live well, they must obey the queen's words, Concubine Shu is a dog by the queen's side.
The empress's seizure of the Nine Emperor Princes' elixir was naturally true, but how could the empress admit it in front of the Holy Emperor? In the imperial palace, it is not terrible to make mistakes, but what is terrible is that there is no scapegoat.
Therefore, the queen decisively pulled out Concubine Shu as a scapegoat, and put all the responsibility on Concubine Shu in one sentence.
"Concubine Shu, say, what's going on?" the Holy Emperor frowned and pointed the finger at Concubine Shu.
Concubine Shu walked out with a pale face at this time, and glanced at the queen, who sneered, meaning to ask for more blessings.
Concubine Shu instantly despaired in her heart, understanding that the queen was going to abandon her completely, if she didn't convict the queen, I am afraid it would be difficult to survive today.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Cheng knows that she is wrong, it is all the concubines who are greedy, so the resources used by the Nine Emperor Princes for cultivation are withheld, everything is the fault of the concubines, please punish the emperor. ”
Concubine Shu's heart was desolate, and she knelt on the ground and burst into tears.
"In this way, your withholding of the Nine Emperors' elixir is just personal greed, and there is no one behind you to instruct you!"
The Holy Emperor reminded him, and the meaning in his words was to confess the mastermind behind it.
It's a pity that Concubine Shu dared to tell the queen, and she admitted that she did it.
The Holy Emperor snorted coldly, so he immediately ordered: "How can this be reasonable, if you dare to deceive the king, it is a capital crime, but if you read that the fifth prince is an adult, I will exempt you from the capital crime, and from today onwards, Concubine Shu will enter the cold palace!"
When Concubine Shu heard this, the whole person fainted directly.
The fifth prince hurriedly helped Concubine Shu and pleaded with the Holy Emperor: "Father, please be kind and bypass your mother." ”
"Hmph, if you intercede for him again, I will abolish your position as prince!"
The Holy Emperor said coldly, so frightened that the fifth prince didn't dare to say more, and hurriedly picked up Concubine Shu, and glanced coldly at the ninth prince Gongsun Haoyi, his heart was full of anger, and he must pay back today's humiliation tenfold in the future.
"Can I solve the hatred in your heart with this method?" The Holy Emperor faced the Nine Emperor Princes, and his face showed a smile again.
Gongsun Hao was not happy or angry, he had long seen through the so-called family affection in the palace, but it was as light as white water. For so many years, the Holy Emperor had not necessarily inquired about the elixir, and today he returned with Qin Feng, and immediately made the Holy Emperor care about him so much, which is enough to show that among the royal family, they are all powerful people.
Gongsun Hao said: "How can there be hatred in the child's heart, today the father is willing to believe that the child is innocent and has not offended the imperial concubine, which is already a great grace." ”
"Haha, family, don't say a word, come, today I will take care of Haoyi and wash the dust for you, these years, I have suffered you. "The Holy Emperor's heart for the Nine Emperors is already very obvious.
The Holy Emperor is an old fox, knowing that the characters at the level of supernatural martial artists are very arrogant, instead of sticking a hot face to a cold ass, it is better to treat the Nine Emperor Princes well, so that the Nine Emperor Princes understand that the royal family is where he belongs, so that the Black Eagle powerhouse will naturally have a good impression of the royal family of the Ten Thousand Saints Dynasty, which is a huge benefit to the development of the dynasty in the future.
The eldest prince and the queen stood aside expressionlessly, watching the Holy Emperor act, and showing a fatherly smile to the Nine Emperor Princes, as if the Nine Emperor Princes were in person, and the others were all picked up.
The eldest prince gritted his teeth, he was angry and didn't dare to speak, he could only stare at the Nine Emperor Princes fiercely, he couldn't imagine that this Nine Emperor Prince, who had no background, would actually take shit luck and be accepted as an apprentice by a supernatural martial artist, God was really blind.
At this time, the Nine Emperors glanced at the queen and the eldest prince and the others very playfully, and their expressions were full of contempt, which made the eldest prince and the queen feel a sulk in their hearts, and they felt that they wanted to vomit blood.
"Ninth brother, don't think that you turned over today, there is a master of a supernatural martial artist, I can't cure you, kill you, there are countless ways, I believe that if you die, your master will not be able to see the general knowledge of a dead man!
The eldest prince muttered coldly in his heart, and began to plan how to kill the Nine Emperor Princes, and now he felt that the biggest enemy in front of him was the Nine Emperor Princes, with the Nine Emperor Princes here, his throne would definitely not be guaranteed!
......
In the end, the Holy Emperor rewarded the Nine Emperor Princes with an independent palace for the Nine Emperor Princes to live in.
The Nine Emperor Princes walked out of the viewing area with the Holy Emperor.
The martial arts meeting also ended, everyone dispersed and left, and the Roaring Sky Dog and Nuwa and others were also drowned out as the crowd dispersed.
The Nine Emperor Princes came to Qin Feng's side, bowed to Qin Feng, and called him Master, which surprised Qin Feng, who had originally said that he was a good man, but Qin Feng was very cooperative and too lazy to care about these small details.
Just now, he had heard the prompt sound of the system announcing that the lottery compass had been successfully opened, and he couldn't wait to leave and conduct the lottery at this moment.
Therefore, Qin Feng didn't have the slightest idea of wanting to talk to the Holy Emperor and chat nonsense.
"Welcome to the predecessors of Black Eagle, I don't know if the predecessors are willing to come to my palace as a guest, as the king of a country, I must do my part of the friendship of the landlord. ”
The Saint Emperor's attitude was very flattering, and the tone of his speech to Qin Feng was like a turtle grandson, after all, Qin Feng's strength was here, the Divine Martial Artist, for the Ten Thousand Saints Dynasty, was a mythical existence, indispensable, a Divine Martial Artist, enough to sweep a dynasty!
The Nine Emperor Princes stood aside, snickering in his heart, if the Holy Emperor knew that this was the son-in-law he wanted to abandon, I am afraid his expression would be very exciting!
But the current situation really makes people laugh!
"I like to be pure, so I won't join in the excitement, you can be happy at will! In the past few months, I will be in the Shadow Pavilion Inn, and the Nine Emperor Prince's current cultivation is not stable, so he needs to come to the Shadow Pavilion Inn every day, and I will personally guide him in his cultivation. ”
Qin Feng pulled the old man's voice and replied lightly. At this moment, seeing that the Holy Emperor was so polite, Qin Feng was also smiling under his mask, he took a closer look at his old man, and felt that this guy was really funny.
Qin Feng has been thinking, if he announced that he was Qin Feng, the seventh prince of the Heavenly Sword Dynasty, at this moment, hehe, it is estimated that this Holy Emperor will be so frightened that his teeth fall to the ground, after all, this guy looks down on him very much, and the greeting team sent at the beginning only has two guards and an old carriage, which shows what this old guy is about.
Thinking that the wedding would be held in more than ten days, Qin Feng felt that it was best to have a big costume at the time of the wedding! Now that his identity was exposed, the wedding day would not be fun.
He thought it through and planned to assist Gongsun Haoyi on the throne on the wedding day!
