Chapter 9: A Lesson for the Eight Princes
The Eighth Prince was about to leave satisfied.
"Prince, here!"
Suddenly, there was a shout from a eunuch.
Ye Xin, supported by the guards, strode over.
The surrounding palace people and guards all knelt on the ground.
"Brother Chen, meet Your Highness."
"Minion, meet Your Highness."
The eighth prince and Liu Jin could only step forward to salute.
Ye Xin glanced at the Eighth Prince, and then his gaze fell on Liu Jin.
"Liu Jin, how many years have you been on an errand call for celebrants?" Ye Xin asked lightly.
He didn't say no courtesy, Liu Jin knelt on the spot and didn't dare to get up, and replied:
"Back to Your Highness, since the emperor is in power, the slave has been in the celebrant for twenty-three years."
Liu Jin replied proudly.
Ye Xin's expression was indifferent and he said:
"It's been more than 20 years, and I still don't know the rules."
Liu Jin retorted without thinking:
"Your Highness, you have been wronged. The slave worked as an errand in the celebrant and never went wrong. His Majesty personally praised the slaves a few years ago as the most well-behaved. ”
"Wronged?!"
Ye Xin stepped forward, sneered and raised his foot and kicked it in Liu Jin's face.
This kick is strong and heavy.
Liu Jin was defenseless, wailed, covered his face and lay on the ground on his back, blood meandering down.
The bones of his face were broken, and the pain that pierced his heart made Liu Jin so angry that he lost his mind.
"Your Highness! Why are you doing that? ”
"You're just a minion!"
Ye Xin said coldly:
"Lone was entrusted by his father to supervise state affairs, and the holy decree was clearly written, and the major affairs in the military palace were handled by Lone with full power, and he saw Lone as His Majesty in person. Kick you a minion, and you dare to question?! ”
Liu Jin's eyes were resentful, he looked at Ye Xin, and said hatefully:
"Your Highness wants to take out your anger on the minions, and the minions have nothing to say. But the slave is personally appointed by His Majesty, and he is deeply trusted by the court, and His Royal Highness wants to fight and kill for no reason, and the life of the slave is naturally nothing, but His Royal Highness always has to give the queen and the prime minister an explanation! ”
Liu Jin's impression of Ye Xin is still stuck in the previous impression of cowardice and incompetence.
As long as the powerful prime minister is mentioned, the prince must be frightened.
However.
"Do you think that Lone cares about the discussion between the prime minister and the queen? What's more, you're just a minion, and in their minds, the weight is far from enough! ”
After speaking, Ye Xin's eyes were full of murder.
"Someone!"
The great eunuch Feng Bao immediately came out of the crowd and bowed to his orders.
"The minions are here."
Feng Bao is the eunuch who holds the seal of the celebrant eunuch, and Liu Jin is also the eunuch of the celebrant eunuch, how can he not understand when he sees this?
Liu Jin shouted:
"Feng Bao, it's you! You betrayed me! ”
Feng Bao didn't even look at him, he just listened to Ye Xin's instructions intently.
"Drag it out, and the rod will be punished to death!"
Liu Jin's face was like ashes.
Only then did he realize that Ye Xin really wanted to be ruthless, and it was not too easy to pinch him to death, he was always just a eunuch and a minion.
"Eighth Prince, Eighth Prince, help!"
Liu Jin knew that he was scared, and asked the Eighth Prince for help in horror.
The eighth prince could only bite the bullet and say:
"Your Royal Highness, no matter what Liu Jin says, it is all His Majesty's personal seal, he has been in the palace for decades, and he has no merit and hard work, so he killed him like this, I'm afraid that there will be discussions in the court where my father and the emperor..."
As the Eighth Prince spoke, he saw Ye Xin's cold gaze staring at him.
He was inexplicably weak-hearted and kept his mouth shut.
The next moment, Ye Xin asked:
"You also grew up in the palace, and you are an old man in the palace, you should know that without the permission of your father, anyone who enters the ceremonial supervisor without permission and checks the chapter is a felony of great rebellion!"
The Eighth Prince's face turned pale, and he stammered and explained:
"No, it's not."
"I don't have it. I'm just, just curious, and want to learn how to deal with the ...... of the government."
was so frightened by Ye Xin that his head was a mess, and the Eighth Prince didn't want to say it casually.
Liu Jin, who was lying on the ground next to him with a bloody face, heard it and almost didn't believe his ears.
How could the Eighth Prince say that? Give people the handle.
"Learn to deal with government affairs?"
Ye Xin was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect the Eighth Prince to be so stupid, and soon, he raised his voice:
"Learn to deal with government affairs?"
"Are you saying that you want to replace your father and me, the crown prince of the prison country, and prepare in advance?"
Only then did the Eighth Prince realize how stupid he was.
What made Liu Jin even more stunned happened.
The eighth prince was flustered, and he knelt down on the spot with a puff, and said with a sad face:
"Your Highness, I'm not, I don't have ......"
"Really? Stay out of the way! ”
Ye Xin sneered, turned his head and instructed Feng Bao:
"What are you doing in a daze? Still hands-on? ”
Feng Bao hurriedly beckoned a group of brocade guards and dragged Liu Jin away like a chicken.
The blood on Liu Jin's face flowed to the ground, leaving a long trail of blood, and he struggled desperately:
"Your Highness, spare your life. The slave is also a last resort, the minion, don't dare anymore. ”
Ye Xin didn't seem to hear it.
After a while, there was a rhythmic sound of boards outside, as well as Liu Jin's wail.
At this time, the eunuchs of the celebrant had all knelt at the door, and they were terrified to see the scene in front of them.
Liu Jin, who has always been the master of ceremonies covering the sky with one hand, dragged out and beat him to death with a few words from His Royal Highness the Prince.
None of them dared to lift their heads, and their bodies trembled like a sieve.
For fear that the prince would look at him unpleasantly again, he would die again.
"Feng Bao." Ye Xin indifferently ordered:
"Among the celebrants, who is not Liu Jin's comrade, make a list for Gu to see, a slave has left, and there are a lot of people on top!"
"The minions obey."
Feng Bao replied respectfully.
Some of the people who were watching the ceremony were panicked, and some were happy.
The celebrant is about to change.
A eunuch who was sentenced to prison was inevitably liquidated and his henchmen were inevitably liquidated, and a lot of vacant seats were made up for others to fill in.
Then, Ye Xin glanced at the people with joys and sorrows, waved his hand and said:
"Let them disperse."
Without waiting for some people to beg for mercy, and some excitedly chanting Chitose, the brocade guard quickly dispersed the surrounding palace people.
Not far from Ye Xin, only the trembling Eighth Prince remained.
"You're scared?"
Ye Xin paced in front of the Eighth Prince and asked softly.
Before the Eighth Prince could speak, Ye Xin raised his hand and slapped the Eighth Prince in the face with a snap.
On the white and tender face of the Eighth Prince, five red finger prints instantly appeared, and his face was high and swollen.
The Eighth Prince felt a moment of dizziness, and his whole brain short-circuited for a moment.
"You and Gu are half-brothers, and Gu doesn't want to have a bad reputation as fratricidal, but you have to be interesting, don't take what you shouldn't take. The rules are decent, and the rich prince who protects you for a lifetime. ”
Ye Xin looked at the Eighth Prince coldly, his gaze was like a knife:
"But if you have thoughts that you shouldn't have, the end will be extremely miserable!"
