The Crown Princess is reborn and returns to subvert the world

At this time, Emperor Li Kang was like a sickly old cow, sinking on the large bed without any energy.

Eunuch Guo was a little worried, "Your Majesty, you haven't eaten for a whole day."

After a long moment of silence, Emperor Likang raised his heavy eyelids and looked at Eunuch Guo.

"Guo Ziyi, do you also think that I have failed as an emperor?"

Eunuch Guo stepped forward and said, "The emperor has worked hard and devoted himself to the Great Holy Dynasty. Others don't know it, but this old slave can see it."

"But that Xue Huaien, he said that I am not worthy of being the emperor!"

"Isn't there a misunderstanding? Moreover, the princess has already gone to deal with the matter. I believe Mr. Xue will understand the whole story."

"I hope so." Emperor Li Kang said lazily.

Ever since he knew that Tian Qiquan was mining iron ore and forging weapons to raise private soldiers behind his back, he felt as if his hands and feet had been removed, and he no longer even had the thought of survival.

When my father was on the throne, because other princes were seeking the throne, there were inexplicably a lot of suspicions, precautions, and even calculations between father and son, and between brothers.

Until he finally took that position, in order to protect the Six Emperors, he was sent to Fengyu County.

But the Sixth Emperor actually thought that he was bullying him, and secretly felt resentful.

The plan for so many years was to drag him down from that position.

Moreover, he also deliberately arranged for Lady Lan to be around him so that he could raise a son for him.

Thinking of these, Emperor Likang became even more upset.

"How long has Jixiang been gone?"

"It's been an hour."

Emperor Li Kang stood up slowly, "If Xue Huai'en dares to harm Jixiang, I will have him tied up!"

The anger on his face inexplicably increased a lot, "A prefect, who gave him the courage to accuse me of my right and wrong."

"Come on, follow me to the front hall!"

Just as Emperor Likang was about to leave, Jixiang hurried in with Xue Huaien.

"Father, Mr. Xue has something to tell you." Jixiang said as soon as he entered the door.

Emperor Li Kang turned his eyes to Xue Huaien.

Xue Huaien's face looked very ashamed at this time. He took a step forward and knelt down in front of Emperor Li Kang.

"Your Majesty, I am guilty!"

"Huh, what's your crime?! You care about the people and the world, but you worry more than I, the emperor!"

"I don't know that King Duan united with the people of Jiyue Villa to rebel!"

Emperor Likang was startled and looked at Xue Huaien suspiciously, "You don't know he wants to take my throne?!"

"Then why do you close the city gate tightly and say you want to celebrate the new emperor's coronation?!"

Emperor Likang's eyes were sharp in an instant, and he shot at Xue Huaien like a knife.

"The general guarding the city, Han Sanjin, is here, so don't even think about denying it!"

Xue Huai'en kowtowed, "Your Majesty, please investigate clearly. I really don't know about this."

"Wei Chen closed the city gate. I have explained to you before that the people in the city are living a hard life and refugees from outside are pouring in. Wei Chen closed the city gate to prevent the number of victims from continuing to increase!"

Emperor Likang narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Father, Mr. Xue did not lie to you. My daughter-in-law has randomly asked several people in the city. It is true as Mr. Xue said, the people's life is difficult, and things like selling children for rice and girls happen from time to time."

"Moreover, the victims from outside came into the city to rob the people in the city of food, and even broke into the houses to rob. Mr. Xue came up with this strategy."

Emperor Likang looked steadily at Xue Huaien who was kneeling in front of him, "Xue Huaien, is everything you said true?!"

"If I have deceived the emperor, please take my Xue Huaien's head to express your anger!"

Things really changed suddenly, and the tired and lazy feeling in Emperor Likang disappeared in an instant.

"Pass Han Sanjin!"

Eunuch Guo immediately sang outside, "Pass Han Sanjin!"

Soon, Han Sanjin entered the hall accompanied by Tian Muyu.

"The last general pays homage to the emperor!" Han Sanjin knelt down on one knee and gave a military salute to Emperor Li Kang.

Emperor Li Kang did not let Han Sanjin get up. "General Han, you said that the gates of Jinling City were closed because there was an event to celebrate the new emperor's coronation in the city, and you were afraid that too many outsiders would enter and cause riots. Do you still remember?!"

Han Sanjin was startled and looked at Xue Huaien who was kneeling on the ground next to him.

"Master Xue, isn't this what you told me?"

Xue Huaien was angry and glared: "When did Xue say this to General Han?! General Han was stationed outside the city, and Xue only found out about it when King Ning entered the city this morning!"

Han Sanjin was anxious, "How could you, Xue Huai'en, talk nonsense like this in broad daylight? If you hadn't sent someone to my camp to request, I would have been stationed outside Yangzhou City!"

Emperor Likang blushed as he watched the two arguing, feeling calm and composed.

I didn't want to stop him at all.

However, Jixiang saw that neither of them admitted that he was the one who intercepted the emperor's entry into the city, so he stepped forward and said.

"Since neither of the two adults deliberately prevented the emperor from entering the city, General Han, tell me, was it Mr. Xue who personally went to your camp to ask you to lead troops to garrison outside the city?"

Han Sanjin shook his head.

"Since Mr. Xue didn't tell you personally, then you can't say that Mr. Xue told you to do this. I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding here."

"Yes, General Han, if you say I asked you to come here to garrison, then hand over the person who sent you the message and let me confront him face to face. But in the end, did I ask you to come here?"

Seeing that Xue Huai'en was confident, Han Sanjin was a little unsure.

He touched his head in annoyance, "I'm not familiar with that man either. He rushed into my camp on horseback, saying that Mr. Xue was in urgent need of help."

"I never sent anyone to contact you!"

"We have our own soldiers defending the city, why do we need to ask your garrison for help?!"

"Besides, it's just to intercept the victims outside the city, so I don't need to use officers and soldiers!"

Xue Huaien denied it again!

Everyone looked at Han Sanjin.

Han Sanjin looked incomprehensible, "Who framed me like this?!"

Emperor Likang finally saw something strange, and his expression on Han Sanjin became better.

"Since General Han didn't intercept me on purpose, I won't hold him accountable."

Hearing what Emperor Likang said, Han Sanjin knelt down on his knees and kowtowed to Emperor Likang three times.

"General, thank you very much, Your Majesty, for not killing me!"

"I won't kill you, but I didn't say I won't punish you!" Emperor Likang looked at Tian Muyu.

"Since you have brought your troops here, don't go back again."

"Prince Ning, I have handed him over to you. From now on, all the soldiers led by Han Sanjin will be under your command. In addition, we must find out as soon as possible who gave him the message to come outside Jinling City to stop me. ?!”

"Yes!" Tian Muyu agreed.

"And Mr. Xue, I have indeed never seen you go to Shu, but I will go to the city for a walk in the next two days. If it is true as you said, I will find a way to help you solve the matter."

Xue Huaien was so grateful that he said, "I would like to thank the emperor on behalf of the people of Jinling City. Long live the emperor!"

"However, you must stand on the same line as me! If I find out that you have any involvement with Prince Duan, not to mention losing your position as prefect, your life will also be lost!"

Xue Huaien kowtowed to the ground, "I, Xue Huaien, swear to the death to follow only the emperor!"

Emperor Likang waved his hand for both of them to go down, then turned to look at Jixiang, "Jixiang, do you have a way to solve the food problem in the city?!"
