Oiran son

"Father! Please calm down!" Everyone knelt down, and the crown prince said to Zhu Xu.

"Please be a lesson to my father, Ouyang Xiujie has evil intentions and knows that he is doomed, so he just wants to bite us and get rid of the crime. There is no evidence to prove what he said, but there is conclusive evidence that he colluded with foreign enemies. Please, father Don't be deceived by him."

"Everything I said is true! Prince, His Royal Highness King Ming, man is doing it, and heaven is watching! You know whether what I said is true or not!" Ouyang Xiujie retorted sharply.

"Enough!" Seeing them arguing with each other, Emperor Jing shouted angrily.

At this moment, a burst of drumming sounded from outside the hall.

"Who is beating the drums to complain?"

Everyone was startled for a moment, and then someone realized that the sound of the drum came from the Dengwen drum placed on the tower.

Since Emperor Jing came to the throne, the number of times this Dengwen drum has been struck can be counted on two hands, and the last time it was struck was five years ago.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the person who was beating the drums on the tower was Ouyang Chen. He was outside with a pleading paper and wanted to sue the crown prince and His Royal Highness King Ming."

After a while, a guard came in to report.

The voice fell, and the hall was dead silent.

Ouyang Chen wanted to complain for Ouyang Xiujie, which was a matter of course, but he actually wanted to sue the crown prince and His Royal Highness King Ming, it would blow the sky.

The crown prince and Zhu Xu were also stunned. Isn't Ouyang Chen in prison? How could he suddenly appear outside the Golden Palace and sue them?

Emperor Jing glanced at everyone in the circle, seeing their reactions in his eyes, slightly raised the corner of his mouth, and ordered the guards.

"Bring him in."

After a while, Ouyang Chen, led by the guards, walked leisurely through the two lines of ministers, came to the center of the Golden Luan Hall, and bowed to Emperor Jing.

"Weichen, pay homage to the sage, and ask the sage to uphold justice for Weichen and his son."

Emperor Jing raised his hand, signaling Ouyang Chen to stand up before speaking.

"Ouyang Chen, you said you were going to sue the crown prince and Zhu Xu. What's going on? You should know the consequences of falsely accusing the imperial court's official?" The words were stern, but the tone was kind.

Ouyang Chen raised his head with firm eyes.

"I understand. When I led troops to attack Chongzhou City to suppress the vagrant uprising, General Ouyang was falsely accused of treason, and was threatened with the lives of my stepmother and younger brother, forcing him to confess his guilt. I want him to stand up and testify that I have colluded with Prince Yan to overthrow Xia.

In order to be able to stand here and expose their crimes in person, General Ouyang had to pretend to plead guilty and confessed to betraying Xia Guo.In fact, the people who really colluded with the Crown Prince of Yan Kingdom are the Crown Prince and His Highness King Ming!In order to cover up their crimes, the two of them framed Zhongliang, and asked the Holy One to return General Ouyang's innocence, so that the real sinners will get the punishment they deserve! "

"Ouyang Chen, in order to get rid of Ouyang Xiujie's crime, you are here to point a deer like a horse and spout blood!"

"Your father and son colluded with foreign enemies. The evidence is conclusive. You can't just say a few words here to clear it up! In order to get rid of the crime, you tried to slander me and the prince for collaborating with the enemy and traitorous country. It's ridiculous!"

The prince and Zhu Xu attacked Ouyang Chen one by one, just when they were about to call for the guards to drag him down, Ouyang Chen raised his right hand.

"This is the evidence that the crown prince and His Royal Highness King Ming colluded with the crown prince of Yan Kingdom, please learn from me."

Everyone looked over in unison, and their eyes fell on the cloth wrapped in Ouyang Chen's raised right hand.

After getting Emperor Jing's consent, Yao Shuangxi walked quickly to Ouyang Chen, took the cloth wrap from his hand, walked to Emperor Jing again, and handed the cloth wrap to him.

Emperor Jing opened the cloth wrapping, revealing two letters inside.

He quickly read through the two letters, the more he looked, the more ugly his face became. Finally, he threw the letter on the ground, and his sharp eyes swept over the prince and Zhu Xu.

"It's really my good son, I'm not dead yet, you can't wait to carve up my country!" A voice full of anger echoed in the hall.

"Please, Your Majesty, calm down!" Everyone knelt down again, the crown prince and Zhu Xu had astonishment on their faces, as if they didn't understand why Emperor Jing was so angry.

The prince gritted his teeth, stepped forward to pick up the letter on the landing, read it quickly, and his face turned pale.

This letter was written to him by Prince Yan. It said that he was only willing to send troops to take Xia Kingdom for him. Afterwards, he would give the other party ten cities as a reward.

Zhu Xu saw that the prince's face changed drastically after reading the letter, and he couldn't help but pick up another letter and read it. The content in it was similar to what the prince had read, and his back immediately felt cold.

"Father! This is a lie. My son has never made such an agreement with Yan Guo's prince. This is all because of Ouyang Chen's frame for me. Please learn from my father!"

"The seal on it is the seal of the prince of the Yan Kingdom. Do you want to say that the prince of the whole country has wronged you? What good does he do?" Emperor Jing sneered.

"This must be the trick of Prince Yan. He framed me and my second brother. The purpose of him is to make us Xia Guojun and his subjects suspect each other and make a mess, so that we can take advantage of it!"

"That's right, father, this is Yan Kingdom's trick to annex our Xia Kingdom, you must not mistakenly believe in the plot of traitors, let your relatives hurt your enemies quickly."

Ouyang Chen sneered, "That's strange. The two of you used the so-called evidence before, and kept saying that the evidence was convincing, saying that General Ouyang colluded with foreign enemies and betrayed the country of Xia. Why now it's the turn of the two highnesses, just say this Is it all a trick of the Yan Kingdom, the purpose is to drive a wedge between the monarchs and ministers of the Xia Kingdom?"

The prince and Zhu Xu glared at Ouyang Chen with resentment, wishing to crush him, but thinking of the current situation, they had to grit their teeth and say.

"General Ouyang's situation is the same as ours. It was all a trick entrusted by Prince Yan. Prince Yan learned that General Ouyang is a rare general in our Xia Kingdom. In order to separate his father from the general, he deliberately planned to frame him. Please learn from the father and emperor."

"What do you think?" Emperor Jing looked at everyone in the audience, expressing that he wanted to hear their opinions.

All the ministers looked at me and didn't know what to say for a while.

His mind turned quickly, and he could see at this moment that Emperor Jing was dubious about whether the prince, Zhu Xu, and Ouyang Xiujie were wronged, but he deliberately wanted to favor Ouyang Chen.

Why do you say that?I didn't see how kind Emperor Jing's tone was when he spoke to Ouyang Chen, but when facing the prince and Zhu Xu, his tone was much colder.

But it's understandable when you think about it. Anyone who knows that his son covets his country will not like him very much.

The current situation is clearly that Ouyang Chen wants to clean up his father's crimes, and he does not hesitate to drag the prince and Zhu Xu into the water.

If Ouyang Xiujie is found guilty, the prince and Zhu Xu will not be able to get along. On the contrary, as long as Ouyang Xiujie is fine, the prince and the prince will be fine.

No matter whether the prince and Zhu Xu won the emperor's heart or not, they were still princes and the emperor would not kill them. Therefore, there will only be one conclusion to this matter.
