Chapter 78 The Prince and the Prince

After listening to the third prince's explanation, the emperor asked, "Wen Yu left the palace?"

Eunuch Xia looked at the emperor and said: "Yes, the Second Highness is not staying in the palace today, so I told the servants in the afternoon, I was too busy and confused, and I didn't report to the emperor in time, please forgive me."

The emperor waved his hand and looked at a lady next to the queen. She was the wife of a third-rank official and the queen's distant cousin. She also ran to tell the queen that she saw the second prince and the third prince in this side hall The prince had a quarrel, which led the emperor to come here. Who would have thought that the two princes had never been here before.

She was so frightened that she fell to her knees and stammered, "My wife is ignorant, maybe, maybe I have admitted the wrong person."

The queen immediately chimed in: "It's quite possible. After all, Yaqin usually stays at home with her husband and children, and doesn't come out of the door, and doesn't walk in the door. Wen Yu is rarely in Shengjing, so it's normal not to recognize her."

"I don't recognize it? If I don't recognize it, I can just say it's him? She doesn't recognize it. Could it be that so many people don't recognize it?!" Hearing this far-fetched statement, the emperor suddenly became angry, and questioned the queen and her cousin .

The woman kept shouting: "My wife knows I was wrong!"

The queen was calmer and said: "This room was prepared for Wen Yu in the past. I don't know who is here to take a nap today. There are so many people here, and I don't know to come out to show my face. Does Yaqin look at it? The people in this room, so you mistakenly think it is the second prince?"

"Yes, yes..." Guessing that she didn't hear what the queen said specifically, she only knew that at this time, only the queen could help her.

The third prince smiled wryly, and said: "Sixth Emperor's younger brother was too drunk today and passed out. He is resting inside at this time. When the son entered, he was not very sober. I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to come out to pay his respects to the emperor and the queen."

When the queen heard it, she immediately laughed and said: "It turned out to be a misunderstanding, and Yaqin is really right, making a fuss out of a molehill."

"My slave has something to report." Seeing the emperor glanced at him, Eunuch Xia immediately continued: "This room has always been reserved for His Highness the Second Highness, many people know about it, but this afternoon, His Highness said that he will not stay overnight , the servant was surprised. Naturally, others might not know about it. However, because I asked the Second Highness in the afternoon, no one should come to decorate this room. But at this time, tea and snacks are available. It can be seen that today's matter, Not necessarily a misunderstanding."

"I'm afraid Xiao Xiazi is overthinking. She prepares every year. It is estimated that the subordinates just prepared according to the practice of previous years." The queen said coolly.

"The person who cleans this house is personally appointed by the servant every year, and the snacks and tea to be prepared are also ordered by the servant in advance. However, this year, the servant did not send anyone over." Eunuch Xia clearly informed the queen.

The third prince thought to himself that everything about the second emperor had to be taken care of by the celebrities around the father himself. It seems that the father's love for the second emperor is extraordinary, and he should be more careful in the future. However, now is not the time to think about these things , the third prince also spoke at the right time: "Just now, I heard the maids talking about the unbearable groans in this room. I was afraid that something might happen to disturb the palace, so I came to have a look. There are only the drunken sixth emperor and his brother." The maid who was close to me thought it was the maid who was gossiping, and was about to go back when she met the emperor father and the queen mother, perhaps, it was really a deliberate act."

"It's not the two of them, it could be someone else. Brother Sanhuang, has he searched the room? It's not necessarily a case of hiding." Even the emperor came over, and the others would naturally not lag behind. It was the fifth prince who spoke at this time.Seeing this, the attendants around the fifth prince immediately got into the room, and after a while, they found the two eunuchs tied up in the closet.

It was obvious that the ropes were made of torn clothes on their bodies, and they were not tied firmly, but they didn't move. One of them was so frightened that he was crying and didn't make a sound.Eunuch Xia saw that the two people had been acupunctured, and immediately stepped forward to untie their acupuncture points.

Feeling able to speak, one of the eunuchs hurriedly complained, saying: "The two slaves are handymen in the front hall. Tonight, I suddenly met a handsome strange man who was dressed gorgeously. He asked about the resting place. The slave thought it was a house. The young master brought us here, but who knows, he tied us up as soon as he entered the door, and asked the emperor to be the master of the slaves!"

When everyone heard this, they were shocked. Could it be that an assassin got in? !Some people looked around nervously, and some panicked and wanted to find guards to escort them.

At this moment, the second prince arrived, without looking at anyone else, he walked straight up to the eunuch who was talking, and said, "I'll give you another chance to tell the truth, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

The eunuch was trembling all over, not daring to raise his head, and tremblingly said: "Everything I said just now is true."

The second prince kicked him aside, the eunuch vomited blood, he didn't know if he was dead or alive.

The emperor felt the hidden anger in the second prince, and didn't care about the second prince's unreasonableness at all, and asked, "Do you know what happened?"

"What's the matter, I'm afraid it depends on what the people behind it think!" The second prince said to everyone, "Today's event, there are not a few participants. Later, Wen Yu will definitely visit the door in person. At this time, it is better to let Have a great year everyone."

When the emperor heard it, he probably knew what the second prince was thinking, and said: "In this case, I will leave this matter to you. It's nothing serious, so you don't need to report it."

"Yes, father." The second prince replied casually without turning his head.

Hearing the second prince's reply, the emperor got up and drove back to the imperial garden. Before leaving, he said: "On New Year's Eve, it's better to go back as soon as possible to watch the new year."

As soon as the emperor left, many spectators also dispersed, ignoring the sixth prince lying in the room, only the third prince, the fifth prince, Mrs. Yaqin and a group of court ladies and eunuchs were still here.

The third prince and the fifth prince glanced at each other, and they both saw the doubt in each other's eyes. Their second brother has always been just a idler. Today, there are two princes present, and they actually entrusted him to handle the matter. No need to report back?They want to see what this second brother is capable of!

When the people were almost gone, the second prince's aura suddenly changed. He moved his feet slightly, pointed at another eunuch with his toes, and asked coldly, "Where are you?"

"Forgive me, Your Highness, I don't know, I don't know, I really don't know!" Before he finished speaking, the eunuch did not escape the fate of being kicked.

The fifth prince sneered: "This man has been tied up, how can he know where he is? The second emperor brother's method of catching the assassin is really clever!"

"Fifth Prince, you are wrong. The grassroots are not assassins, but they were 'invited' into the palace by someone with a heart in a dark way." Shu Jing had been here for a while, but he was just far away. There is no way to justify people's framing, and things are getting more and more tense.
