The tyrant's father, Xiao Tianjiao, the most tyrannical treasurer in the whole dynasty

Chapter 136
Regarding Di Jiang's order, they seemed not to have heard them, they did what they should do, Di Jiang wanted to protect Mu Wan'er, so they arrested Di Jiang together.

Dijiang is the crown prince, so what about the master of the East Palace?

The crown prince is not as tall as the emperor of Chu.

In the state of Chu, the Emperor Chu is the one who stands at the pinnacle of power and holds the power of life and death.

If the crown prince dares to disobey the order of the Chu emperor and insists on confronting the Chu emperor, then they will also arrest the crown prince.

Di Jiang was caught in front of Chu Huang together.

In the high hall of the Ming Hall, Chu Huangping retreated to the left and right, facing Di Jiang and Mu Wan'er who were kneeling on the ground with their backs.

The moment Mu Wan'er saw that she was being brought in front of Emperor Chu, she felt a little breathless, and her small body was trembling all the time.

This Emperor Chu gave her a really bad feeling.

Although her father was also called a tyrant, he would kill someone if he disagreed.

However, her father did not have the sinister and evil spirit of Emperor Chu, nor would she give people the feeling of being too scared just by approaching without saying a word.

There was always a voice in her mind telling her that this Emperor Chu should not be messed with and should be avoided.

She shrank her body, shrinking back with a bit of fear.

After Di Jiang noticed it, he pulled her into his arms, and whispered to her in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Jiu Jiu, don't be afraid, with Brother Di Jiang around, no one can hurt you."

The voice next to her ear was calm and firm, just like in Yu Country, Taohuawu, under the wine cellar, surrounded by wolves above her head, and there were many crises. Brother Dijiang also spoke to her in this tone, so that she would not be afraid .

This brought some courage to Mu Wan'er, and calmly faced the predicament in front of her.

Mu Wan'er leaned against Di Jiang's arms, feeling the warmth of the embrace in front of her, her nervous mood gradually calmed down.

She nodded slightly, and replied to Di Jiang in a low voice, "Okay!"

In Dijiang's memory, except for the time under the Taohuawu wine cellar, the little girl had never been so scared, so scared that even her voice was so weak and low.

Di Jiang couldn't help thinking of the time when in Yu Country, no one dared to bully the little girl, and the little girl always spoke loudly and confidently.

That little girl is what she really should be.

It's his bad.

The little girl came all the way to see him, but he couldn't even protect the little girl.

He took a deep breath in shame, then looked at Emperor Chu who was standing with his back to him, and said, "Father, please let go of my son's righteous sister!"

These words touched the limit in Emperor Chu's heart.

Chu Huang Youyou turned around and looked at Di Jiang who was holding Mu Wan'er.

He didn't smile like he used to. At this moment, his face was tense, as if thinking of something bad, he frowned.

There was still a bit of emotion that Di Jiang couldn't understand between his brows and eyes.

What exactly is disappointment?Still don't know what to think of, suddenly there is an explosion of surprise in my heart, it looks very contradictory, Di Jiang really can't understand.

He simply didn't look at it, he hugged the little girl in his arms tightly, just like it was many years ago.

After a while, a question came from above.

"Do you have to protect this girl?"

Emperor Chu walked up to Di Jiang and asked Di Jiang.

Di Jiang had a bad feeling in his heart, but he didn't know what was wrong, he just nodded and said: "She is Erchen's righteous sister, and Erchen should protect her!"

"Sister-in-law?" Ha ha!
The Emperor of Chu laughed loudly. After laughing for a long time, he said, "Di Jiang, you are the most honorable Crown Prince of our Chu Kingdom! How dare you recognize the Princess of Yu Kingdom as a righteous sister?"

Is it the title of princess of Yu country again?
Now Di Jiang dare not hear anyone call Mu Waner the Princess of Yu Kingdom, because in Chu Kingdom's territory, this title will only bring Mu Waner an unexpected disaster.

He subconsciously wanted to refute Emperor Chu, telling Emperor Chu that Mu Wan'er was not the princess of Yu Kingdom, so that he could get away with it and protect Mu Wan'er well.

However, the voice of Emperor Chu was so sure, it can be seen that he had received reliable information before he said this.

What he retorted was meaningless, it was just a waste of words.

Di Jiang didn't say anything, he held Mu Wan'er's hand tightly.

The Emperor of Chu said again: "Aren't you afraid of being impeached by all the ministers, saying that you are suspected of colluding with our enemy of Chu State, Yu State?"

There is indeed a possibility of impeachment!
Emperor Chu's concerns were not without reason.

But Di Jiang said without changing his face: "The one who cleans himself will be cleared!" He is not afraid.

Emperor Chu was very disappointed with Di Jiang's response. He flicked his sleeves fiercely, and said again: "A good one cleans himself up, Jiang'er, you are really my good son."

As long as people live in this world, they must understand that people's words are scary.

The relationship between the ministers and workers in the court is intricate. If Di Jiang is really suspected of colluding with the enemy country, what is the difference between explaining that the clearer is self-clearing, and putting it badly?
People want to see evidence and facts.

There is no evidence for everything!

Emperor Chu was furious at Di Jiang's light answer. He put his hands behind his back, paced back and forth, and looked at Di Jiang a few times. The more he looked, the more angry he became, and his steps became faster and faster.

"Brother Di Jiang?" Mu Wan'er became more and more uneasy because of this, she called Di Jiang in a low voice.

Di Jiang put his arms around her hand, patted her on the back, and said, "Jiujiu, it's okay, don't be afraid."

After hearing Di Jiang's comforting words, Emperor Chu stopped, pointed at Mu Wan'er, and asked, "Even if you lose the crown prince because of this, Di Jiang, will you still protect her?"

"........."

Dijiang didn't answer right away.

It wasn't that he didn't know how to answer, or that he didn't know which one to choose between Mu Wan'er and the crown prince, and it was difficult to choose.

He was thinking about another question.

Why did the emperor suddenly ask such a question?
He is no longer a child, and has basic judgment on things. Even if he wants to protect Mu Wan'er regardless, he will not lose his position as the crown prince.

After all, he has a bargaining chip in Yu country for the prime number of years.

For him personally, being a hostage in Yu State for many years may be suffering, heartache, and unspeakable humiliation... But as far as Chu State is concerned, he sacrificed himself to achieve his family and country, and his enduring humiliation is a great achievement.

If he hadn't been in Yu State for many years and brought a peaceful environment for the development of Chu State in these years, how could Chu State develop rapidly?How did you get to where you are today?

The entire court, the Emperor Chu and his ministers were aware of this matter.Therefore, his crown prince position cannot be easily shaken, and no one would think of shaking it.

Emperor Chu suddenly said that?Obviously he wanted to take this opportunity to shake his crown prince position.

Is that why he doesn't like him being a prince?

Thinking of this, deep sorrow emerged in Di Jiang's eyes, and he choked up and said, "Father, I have always wanted to ask you something."

What are you talking about?
