Hearing Ji Qirui's frame, Yan Lai was stunned for a while, as if he didn't expect that he would be involved, so he hurriedly explained, "What does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince mean by this? What do you think and do, where can the lower officials influence? What's more, the lower official didn't know about this at all, and your highness didn't mention it, how could the lower official bewitch you?" His voice was loud, and he wanted Zuo Huarong inside to listen to it sincerely, so as not to be deceived by Ji Qirui.

And no matter what Yan Lai's explanation was, Ji Qirui still insisted and said, "When the matter comes, you still have to quibble. Didn't you want to ask for merit in front of Your Majesty to give this kind of idea to this prince? It's all to blame for Prince Ben who was confused for a while, and actually believed your nonsense. You have achieved your goal, and you want to push Prince Ben to the forefront, but it is really a good calculation. But now that your plot has been revealed, don't quibble."

The confrontation outside moved Zuo Huarong in the room, and for a while he didn't know which of the two of them was true or false, knowing that it would be futile to argue like this, so he got up and pushed the door open.

Seeing this, Ji Qirui also gave up arguing with Yan Lai, and stepped forward and still didn't give up and said: "I also hope that Lord Shilang will be aware of this matter, this prince doesn't know that Yan County's order will really abandon the people, originally just said that he wanted to find a good place to settle these people, but he blamed this prince for being confused for a while, and actually listened to his nonsense, causing this irreparable situation, which is really the prince's fault."

As he spoke, he looked extremely remorseful, as if what he said was true.

Not to be outdone, Yan Lai explained for himself: "Lord Shilang, please be aware of everything, what the lower officials have not done and what they have said will never admit it, no matter how others oppress them." He looked at it intentionally or unintentionally, and the look of being wronged was not an illusion.

Zuo Huarong didn't know what to do properly, so he could only say to the two people, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, Yan County Order, this official has already written a letter to report this matter to His Majesty, and I believe that Your Majesty will definitely find a better idea to solve this matter. Therefore, I also hope that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Lord Yan will not act impulsively when His Majesty's will has not come."

In this case, it is not good for Yan to be unforgiving, and the pure person will leave with self-purification. And Ji Qirui's expression was complicated, as if he didn't want others to see the abnormality, and left in a hurry.

Two days later, the emperor's decree was sent non-stop.

The holy decree did not have too much content, but it was an instruction to summon Ji Qirui back to the imperial capital and ask Zuo Huarong Quan to take full charge of disaster relief, and other things were not mentioned.

Yan Lai escaped by luck but couldn't relax, after all, when Ji Qirui returned to the imperial capital and saw the emperor, it would be easy to pull himself into the water, and it would be even more troublesome at that time. Therefore, at such a time, it is necessary to think about how to deal with it.

And Ji Qirui thought that the emperor wanted to praise him, but when he returned to the emperor, he opened his mouth and said angrily to himself, "Look at the good things you have done! But I really lost all my face, and I asked you to share my worries and care about the people's suffering, and that's what you did?"

With that, he slapped the table angrily, his brow furrowed.

It can be seen that the emperor was extremely disappointed with what Ji Qirui did.

But Ji Qirui was not afraid of death and said, "Erchen doesn't know why my father is so angry and angry. That's why the sons have the audacity to ask Your Majesty?" Now all he can do is swear to the death and not admit it, because then the emperor can't do anything about himself without evidence in his hands. More money

I didn't expect him to want to quibble at this time.

The Emperor looked at him with hatred and continued, "What kind of evidence do you want? Do you want me to stand by your side now and tell you everything you have done? Do you dare to say that you didn't do this?" When the emperor knew what Ji Qirui had done to deceive himself in order to make a show, he was a little incredulous at first, but Zuo Huarong would not be groundless, so he was so angry.

Angry that the person who took the trouble to cultivate himself deceived himself so easily, then it is unknown what he will do next time.

Pointing at Ji Qirui's nose, the emperor couldn't say a word for a long time, and finally he sat on the chair in disappointment and knelt in front of him

But Ji Qirui, who didn't admit his mistake, said, "Go down, if there is no will from me, you are not allowed to come to see me!" He really didn't know what to do and face them, especially this kind of thing.

Ji Qirui, who didn't stay here, got up and didn't go back to his home, as if he was slandered.

Because staying here will not dissipate the emperor's anger, but will make his dislike for himself even deeper, so he plans to go home.

After coming back, he was surprised to find that his maternal grandfather, Xiao Jianyuan, Xiao Xirou's biological father, would appear here. I thought that he was already so old, and he was physically inconvenient, if it wasn't for something important, he would definitely not have taken the time and effort to come.

"Grandfather, how did you get here?" Ji Qirui hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

When Xiao Jianyuan heard this, he didn't beat around the bush and said, "I heard that you were sent by Your Majesty to rectify the disaster, but something happened. Otherwise, Your Majesty would not be in such a hurry to recall you back to the Imperial Capital, but is there such a thing?" Although he has not asked about the government for a long time, and he doesn't care about Ji Qirui's position as the crown prince on the surface, but in fact, there are his eyes and forces everywhere in the court, and it is easy to know these things.

If it weren't for Ji Qirui's mistake this time that would threaten his own position as the crown prince, and the reputation and prestige that the Xiao family has accumulated in the court over the years, he would not have dragged his old body here, just to give Ji Qirui ideas and clean up the mess.

Hearing this, Ji Qirui knew that he couldn't hide what he had done from them, and only Xiao Jianyuan could help him at the moment, so after some hesitation, he had no choice but to tell Xiao Jianyuan the ins and outs, and he didn't dare to hide it at all, for fear that it would affect the ideas he gave him and his luck in the future.

Xiao Jianyuan also thought that it would not be successful to let Ji Qirui go to relieve the drought at the beginning, but he didn't expect that he was so bold that he did it on his own without consulting anyone. No wonder it will attract His Majesty to make a big move, and his position as crown prince is not guaranteed.

If he was the emperor, he would not have given Ji Qirui a chance to reflect, maybe he had already found a reason to remove him, lest he continue to make mistakes again and again.

But even if Ji Qirui's mind and actions are no longer on the table, no matter how wrong they are, he is also his grandson and the only descendant of his daughter. It is also the foundation for the prince's party to gain a foothold in the DPRK and increase its power greatly, so he has to help no matter what.

knew that Xiao Jianyuan would never let himself go, so Ji Qirui stepped forward and begged before Xiao Jianyuan could speak, "What do you say should be done about grandpa? The grandson has completely lost his knowledge of what to do. If this continues, I'm afraid my grandson will become the target of everyone." When the time comes, the emperor will depose himself as the crown prince.

"Now you have to insist that it was the official who instigated you to do this, even if he explains, don't let go. Even if Your Majesty is a little dissatisfied with you now, you are still the famous crown prince. So you think, as long as you bite the bullet, everyone will think that you are right, who made you the prince? And he has a small county order, even if he wants to say anything, he will not be able to return to heaven at that time."

As soon as these words came out, Ji Qirui suddenly agreed with each other, and sure enough, he still had a good heart.

But soon he said with a sad face, "Grandfather, what if this method doesn't work? Now my father refuses to see me, and even if he does, I won't allow me to open my mouth, what should I do?" Because of this, what can they do even if they wear out their mouths?

"What are you afraid of at this time? Just do what I say. As for the rest, what if you think about it?" Xiao Jianyuan, Xiao Jianyuan looked at him and said helplessly.

Next

Ji Qirui completely obeyed Xiao Jianyuan's words and returned to the outside of the emperor's study, just like he thought, the emperor still refused to see him. So while he was unprepared, he said loudly, "The son is wronged, and I hope the emperor can see the details. When the time comes, the clues will be found, and the sons will have nothing to say." He is so sincere, it really makes people feel that he has been wronged. But what the truth is, he still knows.

I don't know if this method really worked, study

The door was suddenly pushed open, and Shu Rong looked at Ji Qirui in front of him and said indifferently, "His Royal Highness the Prince, Your Majesty has summoned you. Come with me quickly, and don't delay Your Majesty's current mood." After that, he led Ji Qirui to the emperor, and immediately retreated.

"Sons, see father." Ji Qirui knelt down and said.

At this time, the emperor was reviewing the chapter, and he only glanced at Ji Qirui's arrival, and after a long time, he remembered that he was still here and said, "Get up."

"Yes." Ji Qirui endured the sore knees and replied respectfully.

"I guess you came to find me because of what happened yesterday, right? Didn't I tell you that this is the cause of your own planting, and that whatever fruit it bears, you must accept it gladly? You say that you yourself have been bewitched by villains, but the final choice is on you. If you don't have enough willpower, you will let others take advantage of it and let others manipulate you."

Although he was really angry at what Ji Qirui had done, he was still a little soft-hearted as a cultivator for so many years and wanted to beat him.

Ji Qirui said these words in his left ear and out of his right ear, after all, he was able to come to protect his position as the crown prince, and he didn't care about anything else, so he would follow what the emperor said.

"Yes, Erchen knows that he is wrong. I also hope that my father can show my sons a clear way, so that they don't make mistakes again and again." At this time, he was most concerned about his own fate.

The Emperor had apparently not only begun to think about this question anymore, and when these things were revealed, he began to slip away from here for him.

After a while, the Emperor said, "I see that you are impetuous, easily deceived by slander, and caused by uncertainty. So this time, you don't have to help Zuo Shilang, just go to the place where the Nine Emperor Princes were exiled, so that you can eliminate your impetuousness. It can also allow you to see more of the local people's conditions, know what you should do, and learn more from your ninth brother, so as not to make this kind of mess again." This is also for his good, after all, if this matter spreads, the prince's reputation will be ruined.
