Not to mention that Liu Xinning was thinking of danger in peace in the house, thinking about how to check and fill in the gaps.

Let's just say that Emperor Qingping in the palace watched the Queen Mother and Liu Xinning leave, and only then began to teach the four princes a lesson.

The four princes were trained, and the dejected ones just begged for mercy.

Emperor Qingping took a long time to speak, sat on a chair, drank tea, and rested.

"When the dynasty opens in the future, I will give you a title."

Before Emperor Qingping's words fell, the four princes immediately raised their heads, their faces full of panic.

"Father...... Father......" he pleaded bitterly.

The title of king is not titled, it is for all princes.

If the title is sealed, it means that it has been removed from the list of heirs to the throne.

The four princes didn't expect that because of such a trivial matter, they would directly miss the throne.

"You are my son. I don't dare to say that I know you very well, but I also know seven or eight points. You're just not smart. ”

Emperor Qingping softened his tone and spoke bitterly.

"Your mother is gentle and graceful, and she is very pleasing to my heart. Therefore, after the death of your mother, because of her, I also have mercy on you. However, this breeds your delusions. I thought, you're crowned, married, and adult, you should understand that you're not that material, right? But you are still being used to do such things? "The more Emperor Qingping said, the more angry he became.

"Erchen has no delusions...... Taken advantage of? ”

The four princes were so shocked by Emperor Qingping's words that they even forgot to refute them.

"There is no delusion, you deliberately approached Yi Shoufu's granddaughter, and the bewitched girl wants to marry you as his wife? Not being taken advantage of? You are more than six years apart from Zhaoyang, and you have no contact with Su Rili, how can you think about taking her as a concubine? Do you dare to say that this is an idea that you came up with? You dare to say that this design method is your pig...... Can you come up with that brain? Not only did they buy threats, but they also wanted to kill people...... Just now, Tai Gui came to say, your personal eunuch Pan Da heard that you confessed, so he also confessed. The palace maid who led Zhaoyang to Yingfu Palace and the eunuch who led the way were all going to be wiped out after they finished their work. He also admits that he is the one who bewitched you. ”

"It can't be exploitation. Xiao Panzi has been with me for fifteen years, and he will only think about me. The words blurted out by the fourth prince were to defend Pan Da, "It was the dereliction of duty of the guarded Gonggong Hu that would be broken." ”

Emperor Qingping closed his eyes.

Looking at Emperor Qingping's expression, the fourth prince suddenly turned over his taste, and it turned out that Panda wanted to take the blame for him. Xiao Panzi really treated him best.

He kowtowed movingly and pleaded: "Father, the son knows that he is wrong. However, Xiao Panzi wants to apologize for my guilt and ask his father to punish him lightly. ”

Emperor Qingping is wooden. I don't know whether to sigh at the love of the four princes for a while, or sigh that he is so stupid.

"Not demagoguery? Think about what Panda told you. ”

The four princes originally wanted to refute the words, but they couldn't help but think about it along with Emperor Qingping's thoughts.

Yes.

He is six years behind Zhaoyang, and even if he looks at Zhaoyang now, he is just a little girl and has no interest.

So why did he think of marrying her?

It was indeed said by Xiao Panzi.

Xiao Panzi said that now that his mother is deceased, his family is not visible, and he is really weak.

Xiao Panzi said that among today's nobles, Aunt Changle is the most favored by her father. If he can marry Zhaoyang, then Aunt Changle and grandmother will support him.

Xiao Panzi said that although he is married, if the idea is caused by the established facts, it is not impossible. When the time comes, I will go to the Queen Mother and the eldest princess to ensure that although Zhaoyang is nominally a side concubine, she is actually a flat wife, and it may not be impossible.

However, Xiao Panzi is the one who has been taking care of him since he was five years old. He regarded him as a brother and didn't want to doubt him.

"That Panda has already recruited. Someone found his brother's only son, and if he didn't listen to the arrangement, his Pan family would be doomed. ”

Emperor Qingping looked at the four princes whose faces were becoming more and more ugly, and added calmly.

When the fourth prince heard this, he couldn't help but sit down on the ground.

Last?

Xiao Panzi is a eunuch, if someone threatens Xiao Panzi's life, he may not listen.

But if it is threatened by future generations, he does not dare to guarantee it. After all, the little Panzi in the past deeply regretted that the Pan family had no queen.

The room was silent.

After a long time, the fourth prince who came to his senses spoke: "That...... Father, since it has been proved that someone has framed me, my punishment ......"

"Framed you? You are deceived by others. But these things, you both know and do them. You think, you're not wrong? ”

Emperor Qingping was almost laughed at angrily. What he said before didn't go into his ears?

The fourth prince shrank for a moment, thinking of what he had done, and did not dare to argue from this aspect anymore.

"Who did little Panzi tell me to frame? I always have the right to know, right? ”

"Napanda only received letters and tokens, but he didn't know who was behind them. Now, there is no way to find out for a while. Now that your punishment is set, take it seriously. Yi Shoufu is a loyal minister. Before the marriage was settled, he quietly came to see me and asked for my opinion. I thought that the woman was just one of his granddaughters, and it was better to be married. At least, for the sake of Yi Shoufu's face, Xindi can also let you live a smooth life. This is what I, my father, can do for you. ”

Emperor Qingping sighed and said kindly.

The fourth prince looked at Emperor Qingping's demeanor, listened to his warm words, and thought of the future planned for him, and couldn't help crying.

"Don't blame me. You have no literary and martial arts, no scheming and strategy, not to mention your brothers, even those ministers, you may not be able to withstand it. So, you don't want to think about that big position, just do a good job as the prince of peace. ”

"Son, son, thank you father."

At this point, the four princes can be regarded as really surrendering.

As a prince, how can you not think about that big position? It's just that he had ambitions before, but he didn't have that much ambition.

However, he was still instigated and almost hurt innocent people.

Thinking of this, the tears of the four princes flowed even more.

"If you know it's wrong, go and get punished."

After Emperor Qingping finished speaking, he signaled Tai Dajian to lead the four princes out to get boarded.

And he stayed in the imperial study, and the candlelight was not extinguished all night.

The four princes, who were reprimanded by the staff, were sent back to the Four Kings' Mansion overnight.

Lying on the bed, he soon learned that his personal eunuch Panda had committed suicide, leaving only words that could not be addressed to him.

Before he could be sad for too long, the guards in the palace came, closed the gate of the Four Kings' Mansion, and guarded the door.

The fourth princess, Concubine Yi, listened to the next person's advice in a panic, and couldn't help crying in front of the four princes.

"Don't be afraid." The four princes comforted the four princesses softly.

"Lord, I said it wouldn't work a long time ago. The concubine body is not to prevent you from taking a concubine, but what is the identity of the county lord of Zhaoyang. ”

Yi said while crying.

"I see. I won't take any more concubines in the future. In the future, these people in our house will be able to live a good life. ”

The fourth prince said wistfully. But after saying that, he felt relaxed again.

"This ...... What does that mean? Yi was both happy and surprised.

The fourth prince told him what happened in the palace.

Hearing that the fourth prince was not eligible for the throne, but she was able to get the promise of not adding new people, she didn't know whether to be sad or happy for a while.

"My father is right, I'm not smart. But how smart is the person who framed me? Now I can't find it for a while, but my father has intervened, and sooner or later there will be the day when he leaks out. He framed his own brother, and it was impossible for his father to pass on the throne to such a person. I just looked at it coldly, how long can that person be proud? The fourth prince said through gritted teeth.

Since he has been eliminated from the competition, he will live honestly and watch carefully.

He didn't believe that this thing would come to light one day.
