Chapter 237 The Second Prince Was Beaten
Emperor Yongtai scolded him loudly without leaving any affection.
Queen Tao seemed to be smiling, as if she was happy to see her eldest son suffer a defeat.
Looking at Xiao Chengwen again, he looked calm and did not feel any wavering because of the emperor's scolding.
He raised his head and looked at the emperor, "Does the father plan to kill officials from aristocratic families to vent their hatred?"
"You are presumptuous!"
Emperor Yongtai was furious.
What qualifications does Xiao Chengwen, the sick son, have to blame him?
A plague god who stays in the mansion to recuperate every day, get out.
He was furious, raised his hand and hit the sick son in the face.
Bang!
The slap is crisp!
The whole room was silent.
Even Empress Tao was surprised and did not expect the emperor to attack Xiao Chengwen in advance.
She looked surprised, "Your Majesty?"
Why did the emperor take action suddenly?
Is it because I was told that the heart is so painful?
He wants to liquidate the case last night and kill officials of the aristocratic family. Is it for the sake of the overall situation or for his own personal grudges? It is purely to vent his anger?
Ordinary people can act willful and recklessly for their anger.
The emperor cannot do this.
The emperor is willful, but something big will happen.
Empress Tao looked at Xiao Chengwen worriedly, "Erlang, you step down first! Wait until your father is in a good mood another day, you can come to the palace to pay your respects."
Emperor Yongtai was gasping for breath, his eyes as if he wanted to eat people.
All of his eyes were full of rage.
Xiao Chengwen stroked his cheek gently and lowered his head and smiled.
Surprisingly, my father was so old that he was still so powerful to beat people.
It seems that the father's health is really good.
He whispered: "The father beats his son, but he is responsible for it. The son is inappropriate in his words and deeds, so he should be beaten! However, some of the words he insisted on. This time, the father started a war with officials from aristocratic families and ordered the execution of General Situ Jin, which was wrong. Not only could he not solve the problem, but instead intensified the conflict. Last night's incident was a painful lesson after intensified the conflict.
Yes, it is very cowardly to take a step back and I can't swallow that breath. But, Father, you are the emperor, the co-lord of the world, and the head of the Great Wei Dynasty. You have to think about the Great Wei Dynasty! Continue to fight with the officials of the aristocratic family, can you kill me and I kill you really solve the problem? What if..."
"Shut up! Nothing happens!"
Emperor Yongtai was making a sound and was filled with anger.
Xiao Chengwen said anxiously: "Father, let this breath be held back for the time being, wait for the world to be peaceful and the situation eases, and it is not too late to settle the accounts after autumn. There is no need for the father to fight for a breath, and he can do it at this time. It's not necessary!"
"Get out? Come on, drag him down and don't allow him to enter the palace. I don't want to see him."
Emperor Yongtai roared angrily, almost with deep hatred, wishing to tear Xiao Chengwen apart.
Sun Bangnian was stunned for a moment, and came to his senses instantly. He waved his hand and quickly asked the palace servant to drag the second prince Xiao Chengwen down.
He also withdrew from his bedroom, and then whispered, "Your Highness, please say a few words! Your Majesty is angry and does not listen to any persuasion. Moreover, Your Majesty has ordered Jinwu Zheng Gang to execute all the officials of the aristocratic family detained in the imperial prison."
After saying this, he turned around and hurried back to the bedroom to serve him.
Xiao Chengwen was shocked.
My father wants to execute all the officials of aristocratic families detained in the imperial prison, and it’s over!
The contradiction will further intensify and greater disasters will occur.
The current aristocratic family is not a quail-like family that was suppressed by Emperor Zhongzong more than 20 years ago.
If aristocratic families are sinister and dare to falsely pass imperial edicts, they dare to provoke chaos in the world.
Today's aristocratic families are very brave and will control the rise and fall of the world.
We must find a way to prevent Zheng Gang from killing officials from aristocratic families who were imprisoned in the imperial prison.
Xiao Chengwen did not dare to stay in the palace, so he hurried out and ordered the coachman to rush to the imperial prison immediately.
pity……
He is late!
Zheng Gang, the Zhijinwu, is an action faction. He has already executed the emperor's orders as soon as possible, and does not even give him time to repent.
Looking at the corpses all over the ground, Xiao Chengwen's face turned pale.
He roared angrily, "Who asked you to kill the imperial officials?"
Zheng Gang of Jinwu stood up and said coldly: "I am following the order. Please do not interfere with Jinwu Guards."
Xiao Chengwen pointed at his nose, "You think you are doing things according to the order, you think you are loyal. Little do you know that if you cause great disasters, you are a sinner. If one day, the world will overturn, you, Zheng Gang, will be the first to be stripped of skin and bones to pay tribute to the dead heroes."
Zheng Gang's face changed drastically, "Second Your Highness, don't talk nonsense. Jinwu Guard doesn't welcome you, go out!"
Xiao Chengwen was extremely angry and said, "Followly, ignorant!"
Zheng Gang said angrily: "As your majesty's lackey, it is natural for me to do things according to the orders. I don't understand the general situation or the world. I only know how to obey Your Majesty's orders and be Your Majesty's most loyal young master. Not to mention killing a few officials from aristocratic families, even if Your Majesty asks me to kill the prince, I will not frown."
Xiao Chengwen laughed, "Okay, very good! I will wait and see, but I want to see what will happen to you, a lackey."
He left with his sleeves, so angry that his chest was about to explode.
After getting on the carriage, Eunuch Fei quickly took out the pills and swallowed them.
"Your Highness calms down! You don't have to worry about that idiot."
Xiao Chengwen smiled desolately, his face pale, and his chest felt stuffy.
He took a breath and said softly: "I am not angry about him, I am angry with myself. I have always regarded myself very high, and I always thought I could control the situation of the court. I am still able to guide the country in the dark. However, today's lesson told me that I am just self-righteous and deceiving myself. I can't even change my father's ideas and was driven out of the palace. What a failure. I can't do anything, I can only watch the situation deteriorate."
He sighed and shook his head repeatedly, really feeling discouraged.
He didn't believe it, and his father couldn't see through the situation.
He knew that going to war with officials from aristocratic families was the result of hurting the enemy by 800 and losing one thousand of himself, but he was still stubborn.
Why?
It’s just for the face of the emperor, to let out anger, to make the aristocratic family look good.
This behavior is like a short-sighted ignorant woman, who can only see the immediate interests, but not the long-term interests.
Wars are rising all over the world.
At this time, the aristocratic family needs to contribute their efforts to help with disaster relief.
Even if the aristocratic family has little effort, it is a hundred times better than hiding behind the scenes to support the rebels and causing chaos to the court.
Such a simple truth is impossible to understand.
Although he clearly needed the help of a noble family, he used the most cruel means to push this help out.
If you want to vent your anger and want to kill someone, you will have opportunities in the future.
Why can’t we wait a while, wait until the weather is calm and then settle the accounts after autumn.
Being powerless!
Deeply feeling of powerlessness tortured Xiao Chengwen's heart.
What made him even more angry was that Xiao Yi stopped his carriage halfway.
Xiao Yi's face was gloomy and full of murderous aura.
He stood outside the carriage and said solemnly, "I said that if anyone dies in the Dongping Palace, I will count it on you. Last night, twenty-one people died and nearly a hundred people were injured. I will count it on you."
Eunuch Fei was furious, "Young Master Yi, don't mess around. The incident last night had nothing to do with my Highness."
"It's okay?" Xiao Yi sneered, pointing at Xiao Chengwen, "You claim to be unparalleled in wisdom and plotting the situation in the world, and controlling the situation in the court. At that time, why didn't you say that the affairs of the court had nothing to do with you. This time, the situation was out of control, so you just cut off your relationship and say something had nothing to do with you. If it really had nothing to do with you, from the beginning, you shouldn't interfere in the government affairs secretly. You should do it step by step, and today's cause and effect, Xiao Chengwen is responsible. Don't try to cut off yourself."
Eunuch Fei still wanted to refute, but was blocked by Xiao Chengwen.
He faced Xiao Yi, "You are right. I had a responsibility for what happened last night. When the situation first began to deviate from the plan, I should have made a quick decision. However, because of all kinds of concerns, I missed the opportunity for the best remedy. Now, the situation is completely out of control, and I am powerless for the time being.
If there are dead people in the Dongping Palace, you will take all the responsibility on my head. I don’t blame you. If you have any tricks, I will continue. However, as long as I live for one day, I will press you tightly and guard against you, so you don’t want to stir up the wind and rain. Shi Wen, the Marquis of Pingwu, squatted in Yuzhou, dared to touch the north and the capital, so I cut his hand and killed you by the way."
Xiao Yi sneered and showed a sarcastic look on his face, "If you have the ability, you went to kill the culprit last night. Do you have the courage? You only dare to pick up the persimmons and pinch them, bully the soft and fear the strong, but that's it. But I will not always be weak. One day, I want you to pay the price for what you say today."
Xiao Chengwen smiled, "I won't give you the chance to grow up. You wait, I will kill you!"
"Okay, I'm waiting for you to kill me! But before killing me, you should think about how to kill the culprit last night."
"Don't worry. Your Highness is not you. You only dare to put the blame on me, but I have the courage to find the culprit. After all, you and me are the ones who really bully the weak and fear the strong."
Xiao Chengwen mocked him.
Xiao Yi sneered, "Don't worry about your pleasure, I'll wait for your actions. Don't let people look down on you!"
After saying that, he left by horse and quickly disappeared around the corner of the streets.
Eunuch Fei said angrily: "Xiao Yi's thief is simply disrespectful to His Highness. He should be punished for his death."
Xiao Chengwen waved his hand and signaled Eunuch Fei not to talk nonsense.
"Last night, the Northern Army received a fake imperial edict and was ordered to kill the royal family. Logically, the opponent should ask the Northern Army to give priority to killing clan officials who hold power. Why did they go to kill a group of princes who lost power? Did they admit the wrong mansion and kill the wrong person? Or did they do it specifically?"
"Will the master behind the scenes not care about who the person who died? Just kill someone?"
"It's still wrong. Think carefully about the location where the Dongping Palace is located. Even if you just kill someone, you should kill several other houses on the same street first, and finally it's the Dongping Palace at the end of the street. This is strange!"
