Oiran son

East Palace.

"Prince, His Royal Highness King Ming sent someone to deliver it." An eunuch handed a letter to Zhu Chen with both hands.

After receiving the letter, he glanced quickly, saw Zhu Zihong who was sitting on the side looking over, and handed the letter over.

"What's your opinion?"

Zhu Zihong quickly read the letter in his hand, "Prince, do you really want to act according to the second brother's plan?"

"You don't agree?" Zhu Chen looked at the fourth brother who didn't have a strong sense of presence in front of him.

Zhu Zihong has always given people the impression that he is a nerd, and has never been involved in political and party disputes. Few people know that they have always been in touch in private, and many of his schemes have been written by this fourth brother.

However, after Zhu Chen was put on idle by Emperor Jing, Zhu Liaohong had rarely come to the East Palace until tonight, when Zhu Chen invited him again.

"Prince, why do you join hands with Second Brother to deal with Ouyang Chen? Do you also think that his existence will threaten your position as Prince?" Zhu Zihong asked sharply.

"No, I don't think Ouyang Chen will be my obstacle." The prince showed a sinister smile.

He teamed up with Zhu Xu not so much because he felt threatened by Ouyang Chen, but because he just wanted revenge.

If it weren't for Ouyang Chen, the Crown Princess would not have died, and he would not have almost lost his position as Crown Prince.

This revenge is not repaid, not a gentleman!

"However, I won't let that fellow Zhu Xu succeed!"

Zhu Xu wanted to use him to eradicate Ouyang Chen, and then enjoy the fisherman's profit, he would not let him do so!

Zhu Zihong showed a happy smile, "That's good, I thought the prince would be blindfolded by hatred. You can follow the agreement, but the prince can't get involved in persuading Ouyang Xiujie, you can only let the second brother's people do it." Do."

The prince and Zhu Zihong looked at each other, saw something in each other's eyes, and then smiled knowingly.

"I think so too. However, if I stand by and watch, the second brother will definitely not let me do what I want."

If at this time, if he shrinks back and does not make a move, Zhu Xu will stop, and everything he has done before will be in vain.

"Then put all the crimes on the second brother's head."

Inside the Dali Temple.

"General Ouyang, if you don't want anything to happen to Young Master Ling, you'd better sign this confession, otherwise, I really can't guarantee whether Young Master Ling and his wife will see the sun rise tomorrow."

Hearing this, Ouyang Xiujie suddenly opened his eyes, and glared at the man in front of him with a sinister smile.

"If you dare to move a hair on them, I will not let you go even if I am a ghost!" The man was so aggressive that the man subconsciously took two steps back, and felt that he was a little embarrassed by being scared, and cursed angrily.

"Don't let me go? Do you think you are still a general? Now you are just a prisoner. I can crush you to death with one finger!"

Ouyang Xiujie threw a contemptuous look over him, as if saying that if you have the ability, you will kill me, and if you have no ability, don't yell here.

The man couldn't hold back any longer, kicked General Ouyang Xiu, and started punching and kicking him.

"Tell you! Don't think that I dare not touch you. Even if I beat you to death, you will not die. The prince has already said that if you are sensible, I will spare your life and let your family go. Otherwise, Neither your precious son nor that coquettish wife will end well!"

Ouyang Xiujie was beaten until he vomited blood, but he resisted and didn't beg for mercy. He didn't get excited until he heard that they were going to deal with Ouyang Xuan's mother and son. He pressed against the wall, his bloodshot eyes exuding hostility.

"If you dare to touch them, I will kill you first!"

"No! Let me go! If you kill me, they will really die. Let go! As long as you are willing to sign the confession, your son and wife will be fine. The only person the prince wants to deal with is Ouyang Chen , your family is only affected by him, and he is not your own son, why kill your own son for someone else's son?"

The man was strangled almost to suffocation, his hands were waving wildly in the air, and he almost persuaded Ouyang Xiujie with his life.

Seeing that the man was about to die, Ouyang Xiujie let go of his hand and slowly backed away. His sharp eyes were directed at the man who fell to the ground.

"Let me sign to testify against Chen'er, that's fine, but I don't believe Zhu Xu, unless he can help me get a letter of pardon from the Holy Spirit, absolving our family of innocence."

The man coughed a few times, and when he regained his breath, he glared at Ouyang Xiujie fiercely, and said, "Wait for me!" before rushing out of the cell in embarrassment.

After the man left, Ouyang Xiujie slumped on the ground, holding his head in his hands, and muttering to himself.

"sorry......"

He knew that he would give in in the end, and would testify against Ouyang Chen as Zhu Xu wished.

But he really didn't want to do that.

Even if Ouyang Chen is not his own son, but how much effort he has spent on Ouyang Chen these years, the father-son relationship between the two is not fake.

Now, let him come out to testify against his proud son, who he brought up with one hand, how embarrassing is it for him?However, he couldn't help it.

"Chen'er, it's dad who's sorry for you, if anything happens to you, dad will definitely follow you..."

Suddenly, a burst of laughter sounded, interrupting Ouyang Xiujie's self-pity.

"Who!" Ouyang Xiujie raised his head abruptly, scanning his surroundings with sharp eyes.

"General Ouyang, meeting is worse than being famous. If Ouyang Chen knew that you betrayed him, he would be very sad." The voice came again, but Ouyang Xiujie still couldn't find where the man was.

"Who are you! Stand up and talk to me if you have the ability, why hide your head and show your tail?"

As soon as the words fell, a slender and straight figure flashed from the darkness.

"It's you?"

Inside the Ming Palace.

"Congratulations, my lord. Now that I have Ouyang Xiujie's confession, it's useless even if the Holy Majesty tries to protect Ouyang Chen." Qi Nian said with a smile.

Zhu Xu looked at Ouyang Xiujie's letter of forgiveness that his subordinate had just presented with a smile on his face.

"With it, I want to see how Ouyang Chen can stand up this time!"

"Report to the prince, Ouyang Chen has arrived at the gate of the city."

Suddenly, a soldier came in to report.

"It's finally here." Putting down the confession in his hand, Zhu Xu stood up and smiled at Qi Nian who was beside him.

"Aifei is in the mansion, just wait and see this good show."

After finishing speaking, he took a group of his men to meet Ouyang Chen.

Riding on the horse, Ouyang Chen looked at the city gate that was close at hand, with a blank expression on his face, neither the joy of returning home in triumph nor the worry of his father being imprisoned, making it difficult to see through his thoughts.

When they reached the gate of the city, Ouyang Chen looked at Zhu Xu who was coming towards him from a distance.

The two sat quietly on the horseback, their gazes colliding with sparks in mid-air.
