My father is Emperor Wu of Han, how can I be different from him?

Chapter 75 General

Before Liu Ju smashed his face with the chessboard and just before the confrontation, the emperor's oral order was: the prime minister will reflect on his mistakes behind closed doors for three months, and the crown prince will be confined to his room for five days.

however.

The Crown Prince has put the Prime Minister's life and death in danger. All the people who were supposed to listen to his orders have fallen. How can the oral order be conveyed?
However, the eunuch did not lament for too long, as the Prime Minister's Mansion was adjacent to the Weiyang Palace, and the conflict there soon reached the ears of the emperor.

And then……

"Lawless and reckless!"

Inside Chengming Hall, the emperor put one hand on his waist and pointed at the prince with the other, and shouted, "That's the prime minister, the third minister! Who gave you the courage?"

"Absolutely lawless!"

The prince who was pointed at was punished to kneel down again...

Same situation, same expression, even Liu Ju's reaction this time was more justified than that night of the 'haunted' incident.

"I am right!"

"The Prime Minister framed me first, and now you don't allow me to fight back?"

Now that he had been beaten, he must not lose heart or become cowardly. Liu Ju straightened his back, showing no fear at all, and poked back.

"Can revenge be taken after nine generations? Even after a hundred generations!"

"This is what the Grand Tutor taught me. My father also taught me to learn this. I must avenge my enemies. If anyone gave me the courage, it was my father!"

When Liu Che heard this, his eyes suddenly widened, his hand pointing at Liu Ju trembled uncontrollably, and he spoke eloquently.

What a silver tongue!
The emperor was angry, but the prince didn't finish his words.

"As for Li Cai, he was the prime minister and one of the Three Dukes, while Liu Xian was the crown prince of Wu and a member of the royal family! How could my grandfather kill him with a chessboard?"

"I am just a fool and I am just imitating my ancestors!"

"Anyway, I'm right!"

Before he finished speaking, the furious Liu Che threw the pen holder off the imperial desk and said, "You think you are right to commit a crime in the street?"

"You're right?"

"It's all my fault, my fault!?"

The palace maids in the hall were silent as a mouse, and the eunuch who walked in from outside the hall saw this and began to walk slowly.

I wanted to wait until His Majesty's anger subsided before reporting, but unexpectedly, Liu Che had already glared at me and said, "If you have something to say, just tell me whether the Prime Minister is dead or not!"

Uh……

The eunuch ordered the dawdling footsteps to continue forward, and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, the Prime Minister's condition is still unknown. I came here to inform the Right Internal History Ji An to request an audience."

"Said to be……"

"It is said that they want to impeach the prince for his reckless behavior."

After hearing this, Liu Che's face turned green with anger. He stared at the eunuch and said harshly, "Go ask him for me, is he so anxious?!"

"Only Ji An is a capable minister, a loyal minister, and a minister of remonstrance?"

"Can you wait!?"

"Yes, yes." The eunuch responded quickly and ran out of the hall to pass on the message.

As it turned out, the Right Secretary of the Interior listened to the emperor's words and was willing to wait outside the palace for a while.

In a blink of an eye, the eunuch came into the palace again to report, not about Ji An, but: "Your Majesty, the Prime Minister has woken up and his life is safe!"

This statement came out.

Liu Ju, who was kneeling as punishment, immediately had a thought in his mind: "How hateful! I suffered because of my young age!"

No one else would know the prince's regret. When the emperor heard that the prime minister was not dead, his angry expression eased a little and he sat back on the dragon couch.

He stared at the kneeling prince for a long while, his face still angry, and ordered the eunuch: "The prince is young and willful, and the prince's tutor is incompetent in teaching him."

"Tell Shi Qing to come and apologize to the Prime Minister in person!"

The eunuch responded respectfully and waited for a while. When there was no further news, the old eunuch asked tentatively, "Your Majesty, is that all?"

Hear the words.

Liu Che looked at him seriously and said, "How about I take off my crown, carry my staff, and personally go to apologize to the Prime Minister?"

“…No, no, no!”

Being stared at by the emperor's calm eyes, the eunuch was suddenly startled and broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly shut up and waved his hand to leave.

After this person left, Liu Che waved his sleeves and drove all the palace maids out.

When there was no third party, the anger on the emperor's face disappeared like magic, and the look he gave the prince also changed from anger to a hint of blame.

"Thank goodness you still have some brains. You just taught Li Cai a lesson and didn't kill him..."

"Hehe, you even know how to use a chessboard!"

Once you say this.

Liu Ju knew that he had made the right bet.

If the eunuch was here, he would probably point out that the prince didn't just want to teach him a lesson when he took action, he was clearly aiming to kill him!

But he was away, so the prince had free rein.

"That's right!" As he spoke, Liu Ju stood up and patted his knees. "Before I took action, I thought it over carefully!"

"Humph."

Liu Che sneered again, "What are you thinking about? How can you take advantage of the late emperor? How can you borrow courage from me?"

In response, Liu Ju could only show his white teeth and give a bright smile.

Naturally, we have to pull the tiger skin of Emperor Jing, and we also have to figure out the temper of the current emperor. What is the emperor's temper?
As for Liu Che.

The prince learned that someone was framing him. Even though the Grand Tutor, Junior Tutor, General, General of Cavalry and others gave him advice late at night, the prince did not take any action.

Instead, it will disappoint him as the emperor!

In the emperor's mind, weakness and incompetence are equal...

Of course, the prince's counterattack was a little bit extreme and really beyond his expectations, but fortunately he did not lose his mind.

"Oh, a chessboard!"

Liu Che was obviously upset about these two words, and he muttered, "Since the Prime Minister took the initiative, your crooked logic is acceptable. I will not bother with you anymore."

"But remember one thing..."

At this point, the emperor's satisfied expression faded, and he said solemnly: "As the crown prince, you must abide by the rules everywhere. If you act recklessly once, it can be said that you are willful and reckless."

"Twice, three times!"

"When……"

Without the emperor's father's warning, Liu Ju knew when to stop and immediately said seriously, "Don't worry, father. I know."

Ok.

Seeing that the prince was sensible, the emperor nodded. Only then did the expression on his face become lively, and he looked at Liu Ju with a playful look.

"You made a commotion in Changning Palace in the morning, and then found your way to the Prime Minister in the evening. You reacted pretty quickly."

"Haha, it's just so-so."

Liu Ju laughed it off as usual, "I can't compare to my father's keen insight."

The emperor looked at him with a meaningful look and was about to say something about "father-son love", but unexpectedly, at this moment, a stammering voice was heard outside the palace.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty."

"You Neishi can't wait any longer. He said that if you don't meet him, he will come in on his own..."

Liu Che's face immediately fell.

When he roared in the hall before, he was shouting for the people outside to hear him. There was the great deed of the previous emperor, the prince followed suit, and the prime minister was not dead.

It would be said that since the emperor had already shouted so loudly, any sensible ministers should have retreated long ago.

but.

Ji An has never been a man who knows what's interesting!

This old official who served as the prince's groom when Liu Che was still the crown prince was really tough and strong!
The emperor did not let Ji An in and walked out of the hall on his own. Then, a quarrel was heard outside the hall.

An old voice said: "The prince is so reckless that he dares to commit murder in the street. If he is not punished, where is the law of the country?"

The emperor said patiently: "The prince acted on impulse, and he is under house arrest for a month!"

"Gone?"

The emperor was angry and said, "The prime minister was also at fault first, so you can't blame anyone else."

The old voice understood something from this sentence and immediately said, "Your Majesty, do you mean that the Prime Minister has indeed framed the Crown Prince?"

"In this case, I, the old minister, will also impeach Li Cai for being unworthy of his position!"

The emperor was silent for a moment:
"……roll!"
