Chapter 97 Confrontation

"No..." Shu Dianhe never joked, especially when it came to business, and said: "I also asked Zuo Gonggong, and learned something about what happened in the court after we left the capital."

After that, Shu Dianhe told Xuancheng everything Zuo Huai had told her in private, including why the prince was grounded.

The cold wind from outside penetrated into the house, and the candles flickered. Xuancheng was taken aback: "Brother Prince...how could the father do such a stupid thing?" She was in a mess and didn't know how to react for a while.

"Isn't that something only a subjugated king can do?" she said, swallowing hard.

In the whole world, only Xuancheng dared to speak so bluntly.Even if the ministers in the court wanted to dissuade the emperor with this obvious truth, they could only express it in a secretive manner.

"I'm worried, this is a trick set by someone with a heart, the purpose is to seek personal gain." Shu Dian and Su Rong said.

Throughout the ages, no matter whether it is the emperor or the common people, people who delusional to live forever have almost never had a good end.

What's more, Shu Dianhe has studied medicine since he was a child, and has read countless medical books. It is nonsense to talk about immortality and endless life.

She said she was worried, but she was almost certain in her heart that there must be someone with evil intentions standing behind the emperor.

"Who could it be?" Xuancheng's eyes were sharp, wishing to find out that person and ask him why he did this.

Shu Dianhe shook his head and sighed, she doesn't know now.

"Is it true that letting father go on like this will harm his body?" Xuancheng asked cryptically, having bad thoughts.

"Looking at the current appearance of the father, he should be taking a pill containing Hanshi powder. This medicine can be a good prescription for curing diseases when taken in a small amount. The blood in the heart expands, the mood is irritable, irritable, crazy..." Shu Dianhe Yue said, his voice became deeper and deeper.If the king of a country turns out to be what she said, one can imagine what will happen afterwards.

Xuancheng took a deep breath, and regardless of the fact that it was late at night, she angrily wanted to go into the palace to find out about her father.

Shu Dianhe stopped her, and persuaded her: "Father is angry now, and he can't listen to anything, otherwise the crown prince and those censors will not be blamed." At this time, any dissuasion may become fuel to the fire.

"Then what should we do? We can't just watch my father..." Xuancheng stomped his feet angrily, anxious, not understanding why his father was so confused.

"We have to wait for the right time for this matter." Shu Dianhe was also worried, and there was no rush for this matter, so he could only try to reassure Xuancheng: "Let's see if father is just fascinated by ghosts for a while."

After two or three words of persuasion, Xuancheng gradually calmed down. She couldn't trust Shu Dianhe any more, so she naturally believed that Shu Dianhe could solve all difficulties.

At least my father is fine now, everything is in time.

Xuancheng, who has always been optimistic, has the attitude that all bad things will get better. After lying on the bed, the thoughts in his head are gradually quelled by exhaustion. When he was drowsy, he suddenly heard a sigh in his ear.

The person who persuaded himself not to think about it was more worried than his own daughter. Xuancheng pretended to be asleep and turned around unintentionally, hugged that person's head, and let the two of them cuddle up close. After a moment of hesitation, Xuancheng felt that He hugged his waist back.

Even if there is only a piece of dead wood floating under the body at this time, as long as the son-in-law is by her side, she will never be afraid.

Xuancheng rubbed his forehead lightly against the other party, and fell asleep.

Shu Dianhe just swore in front of Xuancheng to take the matter on her shoulders, but she didn't have much confidence to persuade the stubborn emperor, but she had to say that to appease Xuancheng.

From her point of view, even if the culprit is found out, and the emperor, taking history as a mirror, would wish to live forever, would he turn back?The only way to maintain the present is to do everything possible and obey the destiny.

"Officials above the fourth rank will stop their salaries, and officials below the fifth rank will be held accountable."

Three days later, Lu Meng dealt with those imperial officials who offended him with thunderous means.

There were more than a dozen people who died because of the imperial staff. The palace was stained with blood, and the screams resounded through the hallway.The ministers who were lucky enough to escape the catastrophe kept their mouths shut, and no one dared to object to the emperor's actions.What's more, after seeing the tragic situation that day, like a poultry whose courage was broken by thunder, he directly asked for sick leave from the official department, curled up at home, and shivered.

When the prince heard the news, he was furious and spit out a puddle of blood. The servants of the Eastern Palace were frightened and frightened, they hurriedly helped the prince to sit down, called the princess, and quickly went to the imperial doctor.

As soon as the prince finished reassuring the princess, she was fine and her throat still smelled of blood, so Lu Meng sent someone to send an edict to see him.

"Prince, he..." There were tears in the corners of the crown princess's eyes, she was frightened by the prince vomiting blood just now, she wanted to tell the middle official who came to pass the edict that the prince was not feeling well, and she might not be able to go face to face with the saint.

The crown prince stopped her before she finished speaking, stood up as if nothing had happened, and said: "Gu will go with the father-in-law to meet the emperor father."

The Zhongguan who didn't know the previous situation looked at his pale lips, thin cheeks, and the appearance of crumbling dead leaves, and asked: "Why is the prince's face so ugly? Or, the servant will go back and report to the emperor first, and the prince will come later?"

The crown prince waved his hand, and ordered the people to go down to prepare for expulsion.The concubine's persuasion was fruitless, and she could only watch him leave the East Palace.

The prince arrived in front of the Taiyu Hall, tidied up his clothes, took the herbal tea from Zuo Huai that was just about to be delivered, and walked in with a steady demeanor.

As soon as he stepped into the hall, Lu Meng caught a glimpse of him.When the prince came to his side and asked him to drink tea, he pretended he didn't hear it at all, and continued to review the memorial indifferently.

Without his permission, the prince followed the etiquette and could not get up on his own. He could only maintain the posture of bending over and serving tea with both hands.

This posture is extremely excruciating, even a strong and healthy person, his arms will tremble involuntarily after a while, let alone a prince who is already weak.

In order not to lose his dignity, the prince gritted his teeth and froze his body.

When the crown prince was sweating profusely, Lu Meng raised his eyebrows and pretended to ask, "When is the crown prince coming?" He still didn't intend to drink tea.

It was obvious that he had been waiting for a long time, but the prince could only answer: "It's just arrived."

Lu Meng nodded casually, and asked: "Do you know what happened a few days ago?"

"know."

"What does the crown prince think about admonishing the platform to force the palace?"

Not allowing the crown prince to answer, Lu Meng set the tone firmly: "I think they deserve death for their crimes."

The prince couldn't say anything more, but he had no choice but to acquiesce in his father's punishment of those loyal ministers.

The reason why Lu Meng was so ruthless to the ministers was to show his attitude to the prince and let him know where to stop, but he didn't know that after the prince understood what he meant, his teeth were cold and his heart was cold, and he didn't know his father in front of him any more.

"Does the prince admit his mistake?"

The prince braced his back so as not to let his weak body fall down, and said sincerely: "My son admitted his mistake."

Seeing that the prince was so obedient and obedient, Lu Meng thought that he had changed his mind. He nodded in satisfaction, put down his pen, and was about to pick up tea. He looked down at the prince and asked, "What's wrong?"

The prince's throat rolled dryly, and he said: "My son made three mistakes..."

"The three mistakes?"

"The first mistake is: as the prince, he didn't discover the treacherous villain beside the father in time, which caused the father to go astray. The second mistake was: he didn't remonstrate the father with death before the father went astray. The third mistake was : As the emperor's elder brother, he failed to control his younger brother well..." The prince blurted out and said firmly.

"Enough!" The expectation in Lu Meng's eyes disappeared little by little, and turned into a frightening chill, and he said loudly from his throat: "Are you happy because you want to make me mad?" The teacup in his hand fell to the ground, the sound of broken ceramics echoed throughout the hall, the tea exploded on the carpet, and the tea powder splashed.

Zuo Huai and the soldiers outside heard the commotion, hurried in to check the situation, but were reprimanded by Lu Meng and kept silent.

The prince knelt down on the ground, but his back was straight, and he raised his head and asked: "My son is not filial, and has repeatedly disobeyed the father, but has the father forgotten what he once said to the son?"

"There is nothing to be seen, nothing to be seen, nothing to be seen, so a gentleman should be cautious of his independence. The people of the royal family are the objects to be imitated by the world, and every word and deed affects the people's livelihood and interest of the people in the world, so you will be the prince in the future. You should be cautious in your words and deeds, and behave properly..." This was what Lu Meng personally said to him when he was crowned as the crown prince.

"...I have kept my father's words in my heart and used them to restrain myself. I never dared to forget them, but now my father..." He murmured, unable to continue.

A son cannot discuss the faults of his father, and a minister cannot discuss the faults of the emperor. He is both a son and a minister, and he cannot exceed the etiquette.

Lu Meng turned his back, not wanting to follow his memory.

Regardless of the consequences, he went all out and said directly: "I don't want to see my father make mistakes again and again, please turn my father back!" He kowtowed deeply and begged.

Lu Meng turned around suddenly, and said coldly: "Who gave you the courage to talk to me like that?"

The crown prince got up and said with a pale face: "Father was bewitched by the monster, and sons and ministers are sons and ministers, they should have the responsibility and duty to make father sober..."

Lu Meng sneered, seeing the crown prince's sluggish expression, he wished he could kick him up, and said angrily, "Look at your depressing appearance now, how can you still have the demeanor of a crown prince! How dare you accuse me?"

Some remonstrances from the bottom of the heart, but still can't persuade his father, the prince's death is nothing more than sorrow, his almost bloodless cheeks are stained with the ashes of despair, and he smiles with grief.

What is a prince?The prince is just a joke in brocade clothes.Sitting in this position is like being grilled on a burning coal. Whether you do something wrong, say something wrong, or sit wrongly, even if you just wear a hat that is slightly skewed, you will be criticized by all the officials and scolded by your father.

He has never been able to get the affirmation of his father, and now he is still rejected, since that is the case, what else can he say?
