In the main hall, the emperor sat on the dragon chair and said to the prince: "I heard that you tortured and killed a slave yesterday? Su'er, do you have a debate? ”

As soon as these words came out, the ministers in the hall were silent.

The crown prince bowed his head: "The son is only a small punishment......

The emperor said: "A little punishment? You know that your little punishment will kill him, you know? I have a kind heart, how can there be such a cruel heir as you. ”

This reprimand was already very severe, and the prince knelt on the ground for a long time and did not dare to speak.

Taiwei Yan took a step forward and said, "Don't be angry, the old minister has something to play." ”

The emperor snorted coldly, glared at the prince, and then said to Taiwei Yan: "There is a book." ”

Yan Taiwei bowed: "Since the flood of the Yellow River, the people have struggled to make a living, and the land is barren everywhere. Should the emperor open a warehouse and release grain to help the people? ”

The emperor said: "The Taiwei is right, then tell me, who is the most appropriate person to handle this matter?" ”

Captain Yan smiled and said, "There is only one person in the court who can take on this heavy responsibility. He paused for a moment and continued: "The prince is kind-hearted and will be able to take on this important responsibility. ”

The emperor said: "Kind-hearted? The captain is a false praise. Su'er only tortured and killed a slave yesterday, where can it be regarded as a benevolent house? It was not appropriate to leave this matter to him. ”

Yan Taiwei said: "The prince once opened a warehouse with Prime Minister Nalan to release grain, which shows that he is kind-hearted. Although the prince caused the death of the slave, it was an unintentional mistake, and besides, it was the prince who the slave collided with first, which really can't be blamed on the prince. ”

The prince hurriedly echoed: "Taiwei Yan is right, it was the son who the slave rushed into first, so the son did this to him." ”

The emperor held his forehead and said to Captain Yan: "Since this is the case, then let Su'er go." ”

The officials were in an uproar, they didn't expect that the emperor would prevaricate this matter so easily, this is really an open and honest way to find the prince under the steps.

When King Jin heard this, he was immediately unhappy, got up and said: "Father, if Taiwei Yan says so, then I can also go, I have done all the good things he has done, and I have done a lot of what he has not done." Father, you may not be biased towards the second brother. ”

The emperor said: "Lan'er, I am not biased towards your second brother, I am biased towards the crown prince, do you understand?" ”

King Jin was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "Yes, Erchen knows." ”

The prince said proudly: "The son will not disappoint his father." He paused and said defiantly: "I won't let Brother Lan down." ”

King Jin snorted coldly and sat down silently.

The emperor also ignored the open and secret struggle between the crown prince and the king of Jin, and announced that there was a book to start playing, and there was no book to withdraw from the dynasty. All the officials played one after another, so they were not busy.

After this incident, the king of Jin hated the prince even more.
