"Met a tiger?!" After listening to Emperor Jingfeng's words, Li Jinze's eyes widened instantly, and he finally understood why everyone looked at him so strangely.

He hurriedly explained, "Father, my son has been hunting before, and he has not encountered a tiger. During this period, I did send a guard back to the camp, but that was because the retainers had hunted too much prey, and our group was riding horses, so we sent someone to take some of the prey back first."

"As for any distress or any thing that is lost, it does not exist, and the son does not know it!"

Emperor Jingfeng's eyes were uncertain: "You said that you sent someone back to release the prey, but the guard who returned to the camp said that you had met a tiger, and the two of you have different words, who is lying?"

Gu Yunji knew Li Jinze and knew that it was impossible for him to lie about this kind of thing, maybe it was really as he said, he just returned to the camp after hunting normally, found that Emperor Jingfeng and the others were not there, and then led people to chase him, and he didn't know what happened in the middle.

From the perspective of Emperor Jingfeng and his party, all this is very wrong.

First, a guard said that the prince was hunting and met a tiger, and his whereabouts were unknown, so everyone went into the forest to search, but the prince was not found, but found the tiger first, and almost killed Emperor Jingfeng. Later, everyone found that the hunting ground fence was broken, and the appearance of tigers was not accidental, it was very likely that it was set up artificially.

At this time, the prince appeared unharmed, came up with a set of rhetoric that was completely different from what everyone knew, and claimed that he didn't know anything, which was too much of a coincidence.

Seeing that the prince didn't seem to have figured out the situation yet, Gu Yunji gave him a brief account of what happened.

After listening to Gu Yunji's words, Li Jinze's face changed, and he hurriedly knelt down towards Emperor Jingfeng: "Father Emperor Mingjian! What Erchen said is true, and there is no half-leave! If...... If the father still doesn't believe him, the son can confront the guard who met the tiger on the spot!"

Emperor Jingfeng didn't speak, only gave the flying fish guard next to him a look, and motioned for him to bring the guard over.

Flying Fish Guard had gone and returned two quarters of an hour later, and he was still alone.

Gu Yunji suddenly had a bad premonition, and sure enough, the flying fish guard said to Emperor Jingfeng: "Your Majesty, after his subordinates returned to the camp, no trace of the guards was found anywhere, and when his subordinates found him in the middle of nowhere, he had already committed suicide by taking poison."

"Poisoning and killing yourself?!"

Before Emperor Jingfeng could speak, Li Jinche had already screamed in shock, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

He glanced at the crown prince meaningfully, and said deliberately: "But it just so happened that the eldest brother of the emperor did not agree with this guard on the front foot, and he committed suicide on the back foot, and died in such a hurry, is he afraid of telling some ulterior secrets?"

If it is said that the suspicion on Li Jinze is only three points, now that this guard has committed suicide, there is no evidence of his death, and the suspicion of three points has become seven points, to say the least.

Li Jinze glared angrily at Li Jinche: "King Wu's words are heartbreaking! What is an ulterior secret? I acted innocently and frankly, and there was nothing unpleasant, but the guard, who committed suicide by poisoning himself for some reason, was clearly a ghost in his heart."

"Oh, not necessarily." Li Jinche snorted lightly, and his tone was quite sarcastic, "Taking poison and committing suicide may not mean that there is a ghost in your heart, it may also be suicide in fear of crime, after all, compared with the consequences of murdering your father and the emperor and the nine clans, it is much easier to commit suicide directly."

Li Jinze took a deep breath and tried to defend himself logically: "That doesn't hold up either! You know, the people who hunted with me today were all guards from the forbidden army, and I didn't know them before, I didn't even know who he was or what his name was, so how could I be secretly plotting with him?"

"According to your logic, I deliberately sent someone back to the camp to falsely report that I had encountered a tiger, and then lured my father here, so that the tiger who had been ambushed here in advance would come out and murder my father? But if you think about it, there are many coincidences, and the slightest deviation may not succeed."

"If I really want to murder my father, it will be in my best interest until he dies, but no matter how fierce the tiger is, it is only a brute, can I control who it bites or who it does not bite? There are so many people here, and all the guards of the forbidden army are elite, and it is impossible for a tiger to hurt his father."

The more Li Jinze spoke, the more angry he became, and his tone became excited: "I'm not a fool, I tried so hard to plan a murder that didn't succeed at first glance, just to take the suspicion on myself?"

Li Jinche sneered: "The emperor's eldest brother is really clever, you have analyzed the cause and effect so thoroughly, it can be seen that you have been prepared for a long time. Yes, the tiger is a beast, and you can't control who it bites, but this is a probability event, and if it hurts its father, it will be a great joy for you, Your Highness the Prince!"

"You!"

Li Jinze choked with anger, and his face turned red and said, "...... You are so aggressive, you have to push the suspicion on me, maybe you planned all this, just to frame me in front of my father!"

Li Jinche's face changed slightly, and he suddenly turned angry and said, "If you can't argue with me, are you going to pour dirty water on me?"

As he spoke, he turned to Emperor Jingfeng and said sadly, "Ask my father to be the master of his sons!" Erchen didn't do anything today, he has been by your side, and he has not slowed down since he was frightened by the tiger, and he doesn't want to be framed like this!"

Li Jinze also hurriedly said, "Father Emperor Mingjian! All this is really none of the business, the sons are loyal to you and filial piety, how can they want to harm you......

"Enough! Shut up!"

Emperor Jingfeng's breathing was disordered, and his head hurt for a while because of the noise, and he couldn't help but roar, which frightened the two of them immediately.

Little master, there is more after this chapter, please click on the next page to continue reading, the back is more exciting!

"The forest is full of snakes, insects, rats and ants, it's not a place for arguments, if you have anything to talk about, I don't want to listen to you quarrel here. As for the prince......

Speaking of this, Emperor Jingfeng paused, glanced at the prince with heavy eyes, and said, "Today, the hunting ground encountered a tiger, and the prince is difficult to get rid of suspicion.

As soon as the words fell, the two Flying Fish Guards stepped forward directly, clamped Li Jinze's arm, and twisted behind him.

Li Jinze was so anxious that he shouted, "Father! The retainers have been wronged!"

Gu Yunji and the other princelings were shocked when they saw this, and they also hurriedly knelt down and persuaded, "Please think twice, Your Majesty! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a prince with a noble status, how can he be imprisoned at every turn? If the news spreads, it will inevitably cause turmoil in the court, please retract your order!"

Under normal circumstances, if the prince makes a mistake, it is a small punishment and a big commandment, but in history, all the princes who are in prison are basically not far from being abolished.

The other ministers present also hurriedly knelt down and said in unison, "Please take back your majesty's order!"

Looking at the ministers kneeling all over the ground, Emperor Jingfeng's chest was depressed, and his voice was cold: "When did I say that I was going to put the prince in prison? It's just that they will send someone to take care of him and temporarily restrict his movements, so that they can deal with it when he returns to Beijing tomorrow."

「…… It's getting late today, so let's go back to the camp to rest first, and go back to the palace directly tomorrow morning." Within half a day, there were too many changes, Emperor Jingfeng was already recovering from a serious illness, and he had been holding on to his strength for so long, his face was pale, and his voice was getting weaker and weaker.

He staggered to his feet, and wanted to give the order to return to the camp, but suddenly his eyes were dark, and in the next moment, the whole person was planted.

The shouts of the people behind him came and went:

"Your Majesty!"

"Father—"
