Chapter 1583 Two Princes
Zhang Gaoyi slowly entered the palace first. His steps seemed steady, but he was actually a little nervous.
The third prince and the sixth prince looked at each other, and it seemed that in this brief eye contact, they both sensed a subtle hint of guilt in each other's eyes.
Then, as if driven by some invisible force, they hurriedly followed Zhang Gaoyi and walked into the palace gate together.
The eunuch beside the emperor seemed to have the ability to predict the future and seemed to have known that they would enter the palace today.
At this moment, he stood quietly outside Chengqian Hall, his eyes deep and calm.
When he saw from afar the two figures, one in front and two behind, walking slowly towards him, his originally calm face twitched slightly, and the subtle movement of the corners of his mouth seemed to reveal some of the ripples in his heart.
After the three men knelt down respectfully, the eunuch did not dare to delay for a moment. He turned around and walked quickly into Chengqian Hall, anxiously reporting the situation outside to the emperor.
Not long after, he hurried out of the palace again and shouted loudly: "The emperor summons the third and sixth princes to see him!"
The voice was loud and majestic, echoing throughout the palace.
Zhang Gaoyi silently looked at the two princes in front of him who were pretending to be calm on the surface. They were still kneeling there obediently, with a complicated expression in their eyes.
As the two princes slowly stood up and walked into Chengqian Hall with slightly stiff steps, the eunuch then walked over slowly.
"General, please get up first. The emperor asked you to wait a moment." He said softly.
Zhang Gaoyi slowly stood up after hearing this, nodded to the eunuch, and forced a smile of gratitude on his face, "Thank you for your hard work, eunuch..."
Having said that, he felt vaguely uneasy in his heart, as if he had a premonition of what was about to happen.
Just when he was about to say something else, suddenly, a deafening roar of rage came from Chengqian Hall. The sound was like rolling thunder, which made people's eardrums hurt.
When the eunuch heard this, his face instantly became solemn. He hurriedly said, "I'll go and take a look. Don't let the emperor get too excited. The imperial physician has repeatedly warned us about this!" After that, he hurriedly walked towards Chengqian Palace.
Zhang Gaoyi looked at the eunuch's departing back and sighed inwardly, wondering what kind of situation he would face next...
The emperor first summoned the third prince and the sixth prince with a gloomy face, and specifically ordered Zhang Gaoyi to wait patiently outside. What he was thinking in his heart was that he did not want Zhang Gaoyi to see the two princes' dusty and miserable appearance when he was scolded by him.
In the majestic imperial study, the emperor slammed the dragon table with a sound that seemed to shake the sky, and then shouted loudly: "You two rebellious sons are so bold that you dare to secretly make moves among the imperial guards that I rely on the most. Are you planning a rebellion?"
When the Third Prince heard this, his face suddenly changed. He quickly knelt on the ground, his eyes full of fear and grievance. He eagerly explained, "Father, I am really wronged! There must be something fishy about this matter. It is definitely not what you have heard."
Upon hearing this, the Emperor's eyes widened with anger, as if they were about to spit fire, and he roared, "Unjust? The evidence is right in front of us, and it is irrefutable. How dare you argue here? Do you think that I am really blind because I am old? I am still sitting on the throne, and you dare to have such evil intentions. You are really stupid to the extreme!"
The Sixth Prince was so frightened that his whole body was shaking violently. His voice was trembling a little. He said carefully: "Father, please calm down. I know I was wrong. I will never dare to do such a rebellious thing again."
He asked someone to deliver the message to people outside the palace. He had done this before. It shouldn't be so serious!
However, the emperor simply refused to listen to any of their explanations and continued to curse angrily: "I worked so hard to raise you, but how could I raise a son like you who is so selfish and will do anything for that insignificant power? Where do you spend your time thinking? You actually came up with such a despicable method as using drugs. Who do you want to use it on? Do you want to use it on me? If so, then you might as well force the emperor to abdicate. In that case, I might even look up to you. But what you are doing now really makes me extremely disappointed!"
After saying this, the emperor took a few deep breaths, the anger on his face still there, and his majestic aura seemed to cover the entire imperial study.
After hearing this, the two princes’ already pale faces turned even uglier than death.
Poison? This is such a huge injustice! How could they do such a stupid thing?
You know, everything the emperor eats every day has to go through a strict poison testing process. How could they not know the pros and cons and easily take the risk of sending something potentially deadly to the palace?
"Father, we really didn't do this. There is absolutely no such thing! Not to mention sending poison. I hope you can investigate it clearly and make sure we are clear of all charges!"
The third prince shouted almost at the top of his lungs, his eyes filled with fear and helplessness.
The Sixth Prince lowered his head, not daring to look the Emperor in the eye. He just kept muttering to himself, "I dare not. I was confused for a moment. The poison has nothing to do with me..."
The emperor looked at his two sons in this state, his anger grew stronger, and his face instantly turned as dark as ink.
He pointed at them and angrily cursed, "Confused? Do you think I really know nothing and can't see your thoughts? The Imperial Guards are my most trusted confidants, and they are an important force for me to control the entire court and the country. How dare you try to interfere? Are you trying to usurp the throne and start a rebellion?"
At this time, the two princes were already trembling with fear, and the fear seemed to completely drown them like a tide.
At this moment, they finally deeply understood the despair and helplessness that the Fourth Prince had felt when he suffered the same treatment in the past.
In just one or two months, the three of them were punished one after another.
Each blow of the iron fist hit their hearts like a heavy hammer, making their inner fear more intense, as if disaster would befall them again in the next moment. Now they know that there is no hope for that position in the future.
They began to regret what they had done, regretted being too anxious, and regretted why they were caught in such a dilemma, but everything was irreversible and they could only silently endure the emperor's anger and punishment.
The emperor cursed for a long time, and his anger seemed to be spreading over the court like a rolling dark cloud, and his anger was still not gone.
