The original owner, as the eldest son of the East Palace and the grandson of the emperor, has always been deliberately cultivated by the emperor or the crown prince to contact the cousins of the rest of the palace.

This is a good thing for the emperor himself to win the support of the clan, and for the clan, is it not a good opportunity for his heir to marry the emperor in the future.

Whether it is Empress Duan or the kings, they are all happy to see the closeness of the emperor's eldest grandson and their own heirs, and this itself is also an intangible political asset that only the emperor's eldest grandson can obtain.

Not to mention that Huang Fuying was originally the oldest of the emperor's grandsons, and his personality was extremely cheerful and open-minded under the deliberate cultivation, and he did not get along well with his cousins.

If by the time the palace banquet was about to start, Zhu Di had already gotten into a mess with a group of radish heads, and even happily told Queen Duan that the brothers would have a meal together later.

The third prince King Jin is a slightly dull young man, but Princess Jin is one of the best wrecks among the daughters-in-law of the heavenly family, and immediately teased and raised her eyebrows: "Yo, this is going to be a separate table to eat?" Would you like to give you a few jugs of wine? ”

Zhu Di immediately waved his hand: "I can't help it, my mother will beat me when I'm drunk!" ”

Everyone laughed for a while, and then went to the Xianyang Hall for a banquet under the leadership of Empress Duan.

Zhu Di had something in his heart, so he kept paying attention, and when he reached the Xianyang Palace, he raised his eyes to look, but saw that the seat belonging to King Qin was still vacant, and he had a vague realization in his heart, turned his head and only did the unknown, and continued to play backgammon with a few cousins.

And everyone in the hall is very different, and they are not limited to the number of etiquette, they go to talk and laugh, and their voices are loud.

To put it mildly, after all, it has only been a few years since it was noble, and most of the princesses are married to the families of military generals who fight the world with the emperor, and there are only a few people like Princess Yan who are rich and rich, that is, the princes in the palace, and how many are both civil and military?

If you really want to see the heritage and honor of the royal family, it will take two more generations, but as for the present, it is not necessary to be strong.

The bustle continued until the emperor and the crown prince were seated, the chamberlains sang loudly, and the crowd was aroused after bowing down, and they looked around to realize that there was no one in the hall.

The second prince of Qin.

If this is the princess of any family, it will be enough, if it is the prince who is in the back of the tooth order, it will be enough, who called that person the king of Qin!

He is under the East Palace, and there is such a big vacant position, who will not see it?

Princess Yan's eyes fell on the vacant seat, and then recalled what her mother-in-law had said earlier, her expression moved slightly, and she couldn't help but glance at her husband.

Princess Jin also felt strange and said in a low voice: "Strange, didn't the queen mother say that Brother Qin and her father are in the same place?" ”

King Jin was at a loss, "Huh? After a while, he noticed that the seat next to him was empty: "Brother Qin didn't come?" ”

He asked his princess in surprise: "Didn't the queen mother say that Brother Qin and his father are in the same place?" ”

Princess Jin: "......"

Princess Jin grabbed something from the fruit bowl in front of her and stuffed it into him: "The prince eats the fruit." ”

King Jin said slowly: "Oh, good. ”

He gave her half more: "You eat too." ”

There were not a few people who found out about this, and it was not that no one wanted to ask questions, but the emperor did not have the opportunity for everyone to speak, so he waved his hand and ordered a banquet, and then the sound of dancing and music began, and the palace people rushed in and brought over the meal that had been prepared long ago.

When the enlightened people saw this, they knew that the emperor had no intention of talking about other things, so they stopped, while those who were not enlightened would not think so far at all.

Zhu Di had already eaten half-full at Queen Duan's place, but he was not hungry at this time, and while taking care of a few young cousins, he intermittently cared for Zhu Yunwen for a few words, and the rest of the time he scattered his thoughts on the kings in the palace.

The original owner had some contact with the kings, but in the end, what it really was, he had to observe for himself.

This palace banquet continued the customs of the past, not emphasizing etiquette and religion, but only talking about family life, until the emperor stopped his chopsticks and let out a long sigh after the wine was halfway through.

Empress Duan and the crown prince then stopped their chopsticks.

When the rest of the people saw this, how could they not obey ?

Princess Jin lowered her voice and reminded her husband: "Don't eat it!" ”

King Jin was puzzled, "Huh? After looking around, he couldn't hide his surprise: "Why don't you eat it?" ”

Princess Jin glared at him: "Shut up!" ”

King Jin: "...... Oh. ”

He also put down his chopsticks.

The main hall gradually returned to silence, and only the voice of the crown prince reached everyone's ears: "Father, what's the matter?" It's good, but sighs. ”

The emperor, who didn't want to look at the crown prince all the time, rarely refuted his feelings: "What can I do?" It's just that I'm worried about you bunch of unsuccessful things! ”

When everyone heard this, they all changed color, and the prince was even more stunned: "Father, but what did the son do wrong?" ”

The emperor did not answer directly, but sneered: "What did you do wrong? What can you do wrong? You're right, I'm the only one! ”

Having said this, how can the crown prince still deal with it, and immediately knelt down to ask for guilt, and the crown princess, as his wife, naturally followed.

And when the kings saw this, where could they still sit still?

Wu pressed his knees.

The crown prince said earnestly: "The son is guilty, and it is really ...... to provoke his father to be so angry."

"That's enough, shut up!"

Before the emperor could finish speaking, he angrily overturned the table: "You think I don't know? What I say is better than what I sing, and I have long been looking forward to making room for you when I die! ”

Such a severe accusation instantly expelled the warmth of the previous family feast.

The crown prince was shocked when he heard this, and the rest of the people were even more terrified, only Empress Duan said softly: "Your Majesty, calm your anger, don't frighten the children......"

The emperor immediately turned his anger on her: "Don't you know what the rebel has done? How can you still say such things! ”

Queen Duan was speechless and sighed.

But the crowd heard it in a fog.

And the emperor obviously didn't plan to play dumb riddles with them, and directly revealed the correct answer: "Don't you feel that there is one less person today?" Don't want to know where he's gone?! ”

He laughed twice, and his expression was cold: "I'll let people take that beast!" ”

With a wave of his hand, a guard dressed in the uniform of the pro-military governor's mansion escorted a person close and forced him to kneel on the ground.

At first, everyone saw that this person's hair was scattered, and the white shirt was stained with blood, which was extremely miserable, and in some places even exposed the white bones.

But it was Princess Jin's sharpest eyes, and after seeing the faces of the people who came, she was shocked and lost her voice: "Brother Qin?!" ”

As soon as the words landed, she subconsciously covered her mouth and looked at the emperor in shock.

The rest of the people in the hall were even more earthy: "Qin, Brother Qin? ”

"How so?!"

Mo said that it was them, and even Zhu Yunwen was shocked.

Looking at King Qin's posture, it is obvious that he was tortured, and he also lost half his life.

Who doesn't know that the old man has always cherished his blood—what must he do to make the old man ruthless and make him like this?

However, Zhu Di understood a little bit in his heart.

The crown prince was the first to kowtow and said, "Father, what did the second brother do wrong to make you so angry?" After all, it's your own flesh and blood, you ......"

The Emperor interrupted him again in a fit of rage: "Did I let you speak?!" Do you know what this beast has done?! ”

The crown prince and everyone in the palace paused together, but they heard the emperor snort coldly, and Sen Sen said: "He forced Gong'e in the inner palace, without a father and a king, and colluded with my chief attendant to plot against him!" I haven't died yet, I want to be the emperor? Damn brute, dream! ”

The emperor, who was over fifty years old, still had a sturdy physique comparable to that of a young man, and although he was already an old man according to the concept of most people today, there was no twilight in him, but a kind of vitality that was becoming more and more divine, almost cruel.

At the end of his sentence, he looked around and said in a cold voice, "Get up." ”

Everyone was shocked by the accusations of King Qin that the emperor said before, and they were taken by the emperor's expression at this time.

At this moment, I heard a clear sound fall into my ears, and it was the sound of drawing a knife!

The emperor took the sword from the waist of the attendant nearby, cut off a corner of the table on one side, and scolded sharply: "Stand up for me!" ”

The crowd stood up tremblingly.

The emperor's expression was cold, and the dragon and tiger stepped down the jade steps, and said murderously: "One by one, come over to see what happens to those who are disobedient to me and intend to seek my power!" ”

He stood in front of King Qin with a knife in one hand, and a gloomy shadow naturally fell behind him: "Prince, start with you!" ”

Chapter 154

This change came suddenly, but everyone was stunned on the spot, not to mention that the King of Jin had always been slow, and even a clever person like the Princess of Jin was stunned.

You must know that King Qin is the second prince of this dynasty under the crown prince!

How noble is this?!

Not to mention that the emperor has always valued bloodline and spoiled his children and grandchildren, in the past, the clan had it, and it was just a punishment of three glasses of wine, but today the king of Qin has committed what a heinous crime, so that he has been severely punished and embarrassed to this point?

Even the queen and the East Palace interceded for her, but they were so ruthlessly refuted in front of everyone, and even the emperor was out of his words, so he had the meaning of doubting the East Palace......

Everyone was terrified by this, and when they saw the emperor personally lifting the knife in front of King Qin, his expression was cold, his face was hideous, and he was even more frightened.

Just as he was stunned, he heard the emperor shout at the prince again: "What are you rubbing? I can't call you?! ”

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help lowering their heads, and the prince obeyed the order, walked down the steps quickly, and stood beside the Qin King who was being detained: "Father and emperor forgive sins, how dare your sons have such disrespect?" ”

The emperor sneered: "You'd better be." ”

Then he waved his chin at the guards beside him: "Hand your saber to the prince." ”

The guards obeyed the order.

The prince was a little stunned and took the saber in his hand, and he didn't know why for a while.

But he saw the emperor sneering and said: "You are also a person who has read the books of sages and participated in the revision of the great laws of this dynasty, if someone intends to murder his own father, what should he be guilty of?" ”

The crown prince vaguely guessed the emperor's plan, and his voice couldn't help but tremble a little: "Harming the father with a son is within the ten evils, according to the laws of this dynasty, 'disobeying the heavens and destroying the etiquette is the king's law'......"

"Very well," the emperor smiled at this, and then asked, "a rebellious man, who has no king and no father, but does he still have a brother?" ”

The prince was speechless, and after a few moments, he said with difficulty: "Naturally, Erchen does not have such brothers. ”

The Emperor said again: "Very good. ”

Then he said categorically: "You come forward and stab him to show that you have severed your brotherly affection with him, and you are also filial to your father!" ”

When the words landed, there was a gasping sound from all sides, and there was no shortage of people who were trembling.

The crown prince immediately knelt down: "Father, the second brother has admittedly had, but it is really ...... to do this."

The emperor interrupted him angrily: "Where do you have any second brother?" It's Qin Shu people! ”

He didn't give the prince a chance to continue to persuade and argue, so he took a knife in one hand and shouted: "Such a beast without a king and a father, you still treat him as a brother, where do you put my father?" Don't be verbose, come up and stab him! ”
