The second prince knelt for a long time and couldn't stand it for a long time, plus he was sued by the villain of Yongshun Hou first, and he fainted under the anger of the poisonous and ruthless mouth.

Waiting to be moved to the warm pavilion in the hall, it didn't take long for him to wake up leisurely, lying down and confused for a moment, and when he remembered what happened just now, he looked up and saw Emperor Tianqing sitting not far away, and he was directly red-eyed.

"Father."

The second prince struggled to roll over from the couch and rolled down, and when he fell to the ground, he knelt on his forehead and touched the ground, "The son is guilty, it is the son and the minister who did not do his duty as a son and a minister, so that the cousin misunderstood such a thought, it is the fault of the son, and I beg my father to punish him." ”

Emperor Tianqing's words that he originally wanted to scold angrily were blocked by him asking for guilt first, and said with a cold voice in his calm eyes: "You are guilty!" ”

Rong Guangsheng was also frozen to a stiff face, but he was not treated as well as the second prince, and he still knelt after being called into the palace.

At this time, seeing that Emperor Tianqing had the intention of condemning the second prince, he hurriedly knelt a few steps forward and slammed his head on the ground: "Your Majesty, this matter has nothing to do with His Royal Highness, it is really a fool." ”

"That beast was poured a few pots of wine, and I don't know who pouted to say such a big rebellion, it is the unkindness of the godson of Weichen, but this matter has nothing to do with His Highness, His Royal Highness has not been in Beijing for several years, and Weichen has not been involved in military and political affairs for a long time, and His Royal Highness has only respect for the prince and His Majesty, and he does not dare to have the slightest disobedience, and I hope His Majesty will investigate clearly!"

Hearing this, Emperor Tianqing looked at the two kneeling on the ground.

If the two of them defended a few words, he might still be angry, but the second prince directly pleaded guilty, and Rong Guangsheng did not have the slightest intention of protecting Rong Dai, which made his anger in his heart ease a little.

The second prince has indeed rarely stayed in Beijing for so many years, and he did not come back until the end of last year, and he has been very obedient and has not been involved in the court for nearly a year since he returned to Beijing.

Feng Yuan looked at Emperor Tianqing, his expression was slightly dark, and his eyes couldn't help but deepen.

This Rong Guangsheng seems to be a military general rude, but in fact, he is very delicate and deep, and only one or two words of kung fu can reverse Emperor Tianqing's mind, he hung his head and stood quietly beside him, while Emperor Tianqing spoke: "Rong Dai spoke wildly in public, what do you think should be done with this matter?" ”

"Father......" The second prince turned pale, as if he wanted to intercede for Rong Dai.

However, although there was pain in Rong Guangsheng's eyes, he still said in a deep voice: "If you insult Your Majesty with foul language in public, that evil animal will not be able to atone for its sins even if it dies a hundred times, and the ministers and the Rong family can't tolerate him and insult the beasts of the Rong family's ancestors, but this time the matter is really strange." ”

"Wechen sent the rebel to the family temple for self-reflection two months early, and ordered him not to leave the family temple for half a step, if no one helps, those women will never be able to enter the door of the family temple, although my Rong family does not say that the family style is upright, but if no one helps the evil animal come up with an idea to deter the servants, they will never dare to deceive the rebel to let the rebel do such ugly things."

Rong Guangsheng's eyes were full of grief and indignation,

"My Rong family has been loyal to His Majesty for many years, and the second prince has never been disobedient, but some people bewitched Rong Dai and made him have such a love between us and His Majesty's monarchs and ministers, father and son."

"Rong Dai's crime is unforgivable, and he really deserves to die, but Wei Chen really doesn't want to be the wronged person, and I beg Your Majesty to issue an order to strictly investigate this matter, return the Rong family, and return the innocence of the Second Highness."

He slammed his head on the ground and fell to his knees for a long time.

The second prince's eyes were red, and he knelt on the ground and said with a pale expression: "Erchen has just been away from Beijing for too long, and he wants to return to Beijing to accompany his father for a while. ”

"Ask my father to let people find out about this matter, and let the sons know who is so intolerant of the sons, and when the matter is over, the sons will stay away from the capital, and the princes will not come back for a day if they do not ascend the throne, so that no one will suspect that the sons and daughters have the heart to covet the throne......"

Feng Yuan pulled the corners of his mouth, these two princes are really black-hearted.

He was afraid that he saw that Emperor Tianqing was suspicious of him, and he not only used retreat to protect himself, but also put the contradiction on the prince in a word.

Emperor Tianqing is young and strong, what throne does the crown prince ascend?

Sure enough, Emperor Tianqing's face suddenly sank: "What nonsense, you are the prince, how can you never return to Beijing?!" ”

The second prince pursed his lips and showed sadness, his red eyes and pale face looked extremely pitiful.

Emperor Tianqing was a little relieved when he saw his appearance, and said with a slight expression: "Okay, I know that you don't have such a mind, and among your brothers, you are the only one who does not admire power the most." ”

"Father's ......"

The second prince's tears rolled down, and he couldn't help but cover his face with his sleeves.

Emperor Tianqing softened his heart even more: "You get up first." ”

The second prince knelt for too long, his knees were already frozen and stiff, and he staggered and almost fell when he got up.

"Rong Dai is young and rampant, easy to be picked upon, since you say that this matter is strange, then you will leave it to you to investigate, just for the sake of justice, let Zhan Changdong and the Metropolitan Procuratorate help you, and wait until the investigation is clear to give me an explanation."

Rong Guangsheng lowered his head when he heard this: "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

Emperor Tianqing turned his head to Feng Yuan and said, "Go and pass the decree to let Zhan Changdong enter the palace." ”

Feng Yuan nodded: "Yes, Your Majesty." ”

Emperor Tianqing seemed to gently appease the second prince for a few words, and he was not too embarrassed Rong Guangsheng, but when the two came out of the palace, their faces were more ugly than the other.

I don't know when the snow fell on a sunny day for a few days, and the snowflakes that were obviously weightless fell on their bodies, but they hurt the flesh of the two.

The second prince knelt and injured his leg and walked hard, and his knee hurt so much, although it was better for Rong Guangsheng to kneel less than him, but it was not so easy to kneel in the ice and snow, when the two supported each other and walked forward, both the guards and the inner servants in front of the palace were only standing quietly, and even the palace people they met were all bowing their heads, and no one dared to step forward to help.

"Uncle." The pitiful look on the second prince's face had long since faded, and he only looked gloomy, "Father is still suspicious." ”

Rong Guangsheng's eyebrows were also full of heaviness when he twisted his eyebrows.

His Majesty has always treated the second prince kindly, and he is different from other princes.

His Majesty is jealous of the crown prince, and most of the three princes and the fourth prince are used to weigh the court situation, but the second prince died of illness early because his biological mother was a favored person of His Majesty, and the second prince has been away from the capital for many years, and deliberately abandoned the father-son relationship between the royal dignity and humility and he is particularly close, His Majesty treats the second prince very seriously.

If His Majesty really did not suspect as he said, he should have let someone drive or carry a sedan chair to send the second prince back, or leave him in the palace and ask someone to look after his legs, instead of knowing that the second prince knelt and injured his legs and let the two of them leave the palace at this time, this is not a very long distance, and it is undoubtedly torture for people who knelt and injured their legs under the cold.
