If you want to come, Sima Cheng also knows.

So Wei Wang said that he didn't want to escape.

It was from the heart.

"Everyone be careful."

Sima Jiao wasn't sure if there would be any assassination along the way.

He stared at his men and searched for the bodies of the two dead assassins.

As a result, nothing was found.

Sima Jiao was a little disappointed.

He was suspicious.

Who are these people?
I didn't seem to have encountered this group of people in my previous life.

Even King Sima Cheng of Wei wanted to kill him.

The people behind it should have a lot of background.

Those who dare to do so.

Sima Jiao couldn't think of who it would be.

After this assassination.

Everyone was cautious along the way.

Sima Cheng stayed in the carriage most of the time.

Ten days later.

The convoy finally returned to the capital.

Sima Jiao looked at the majestic walls of the capital.

Quietly heaved a sigh of relief.

He did not return to his residence.

Instead, he went directly to the imperial study to see the emperor.

"Father, my son has something important to report."

Emperor Hong Xuan saw Sima Jiao.

Very happy.

He hasn't seen his son for some time.

But look at Sima Jiao's dusty appearance.

Distressed and confused.

What is so important.

As a prince, he came here without even having time to wash up.

"Tell me, what's the matter."

Emperor Hong Xuan asked seriously.

Prince looks serious

Emperor Hong Xuan's heart also lifted.

"The person I'm going to Yangzhou to track down this time is the emperor's brother Sima Cheng."

Sima Jiao told Emperor Hong Xuan about Sima Cheng's collusion with the salt gang in Yangzhou to sell private salt.

The more Emperor Hong Xuan heard this, the more he frowned.

"Afterwards, I followed the emperor to Jianzhou..."

Sima Jiao didn't hide anything about the silver mine either.

Emperor Hong Xuan listened to Sima Jiao's words.

Sitting on the chair with furrowed brows.

"Father, what my son said has human and physical evidence."

"No lie at all."

As long as there is a need, Sima Jiao can show evidence at any time.

Emperor Hong Xuan glanced at Sima Jiao in front of him.

Only now did he understand.

Why is the prince unwilling to say anything before leaving.

I just insist on going to Jinling Weifu for a private visit.

It turned out that his goal was Sima Cheng.

Emperor Hong Xuan admitted.

If he knew in advance.

Perhaps he would not agree to let Sima Jiao investigate.

"How dare King Wei do this!"

Emperor Hong Xuan thumped the table with his right hand.

In his heart was intense anger towards Sima Cheng.

"Go pass on to King Wei."

Emperor Hong Xuan said coldly to the eunuch beside him.

Wei Wang followed the eunuch to the imperial study in panic.

As soon as he entered, he saw Sima Jiao standing aside.

Emperor Hong Xuan looked unhappy.

His face was ashen.

He hadn't had time to speak yet.

Emperor Hong Xuan patted the table heavily.

"Nizi, don't kneel down yet."

King Wei knelt down hastily with a plop.

"Say, what did you do in Yangzhou and Jianzhou?"

Emperor Hong Xuan was furious.

He didn't want to see brothers killing each other.

But I don't want to see my own son planning to fight for the crown prince.

Privately sold private salt to mine silver mines.

If King Wei is not his son.

It was already pulled out and chopped.

Sima Cheng had never seen the emperor so angry.

He dare not hide.

I had to talk about things in Yangzhou and Jianzhou.

Sima Cheng is actually very clear.

Even if he doesn't say it.

Father Huang must have known what happened from Sima Jiao.

After speaking.

Emperor Hong Xuan looked at Sima Cheng with a gloomy face.

In the imperial study room, the quiet needle drop can be heard.

Although Emperor Hong Xuan was furious.

He didn't expect Sima Cheng to do so many things behind his back.

But even so.

He also had no intention of killing his son.

"I'm tired, you two go back first."

Emperor Hong Xuan waved his hand wearily.

Let Sima Jiao and Sima Cheng leave.

"Sima Jiao, are you satisfied now?"

Just left the palace.

Sima Cheng stared at Sima Jiao with hatred.

"Emperor brother.

"You figure it out."

"It doesn't matter if it's Yangzhou or Jianzhou."

"I didn't force you to do those things."

"You did it yourself."

In fact, Sima Jiao was not satisfied.

He knew very well that Emperor Hong Xuan would think about the love between father and son.

Be open to Sima Cheng.

It's just hard to say to what extent.

According to the law.

What Sima Cheng did.

It is not enough to die once.

Two days later.

The emperor's personal eunuch went to Wei Wangfu to pass the decree.

The emperor dismissed all the official positions of King Wei.

Only the name of a prince remained.

All the soldiers in the mansion were also taken away.

From now on, you are not allowed to leave the capital.

King Wei listened to the eunuch read the imperial decree.

hit hard.

The whole person fell to the ground decadently.

It's over, it's over.

Before going to Yangzhou.

He still has a lot of power in his hands.

Now the office is gone.

The government soldiers are gone.

There is only one prince whose name sounds nice.

And still can't leave the capital.

He is completely out of touch with the crown prince.

Sima Cheng has been calculating for many years.

But it ended like this.

He hates and regrets now.

Ninggong will be on the other side.

Mr. Gong heard the emperor's punishment of Sima Cheng.

Shocked.

"No, isn't this about Cheng'er's life?"

Mr. Gong can't take care of a lot.

She has followed the rules for decades.

Strictly abide by one's duty.

But not this time.

She is going to save her son.

Mr. Gong went directly to the outside of Zichen Palace.

There was a lot of snow in the capital a few days ago.

It's freezing outside now.

The biting cold wind was howling.

The nobleman knelt outside Zichen Palace.

"Your Majesty, please take it back."

"Cheng'er is the emperor's son."

She hoped that the emperor could see that she hadn't caused trouble for many years.

Sima Cheng can be spared.

"Your Majesty, you can't help it."

"Miss."

"It's so cold you'll freeze."

The nobleman shook his head.

The emperor did not spare Sima Cheng for a day.

She never got up.

The maids were helpless.

Mr. Gong just knelt upright outside Zichen Palace for several hours.

Whether it is a eunuch or a palace maid to persuade.

Neither worked.

Later the queen heard the news.

Also went outside Zichen Palace.

He saw Mr. Gong kneeling on the ground trembling.

His face was pale and his lips were purple with cold.

"My lord, why are you bothering?"

Empress Ruan wanted to help the nobleman get up.

The nobleman shook his head.

Pulled the queen's hand away.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to persuade me."

"Cheng'er is at fault."

"It's not that bad."

Mr. Gong cried while talking.

"Your Majesty, please let Cheng'er go."

Empress Ruan heard what Mr. Gonggui said.

He sighed heavily.

She heard about the things Sima Cheng did.

"Your honor."

"Actually, the emperor has shown mercy."

"Whether it's mining silver in private."

"Still selling private salt."

"It's all capital crimes."

Being a prince is a death penalty.

But living crimes are inevitable.

"The emperor did not exile King Wei, nor did he make him a nobleman."

"It's been very kind."

Empress Ruan felt that the nobles were fascinated by the authorities.

"You want the emperor to spare King Wei."

"Could it be that you want to force the emperor to delegate power to King Wei?"

"That's a private salt and silver mine!"

Empress Ruan glanced at Mr. Gong speechlessly.

Fortunately, the emperor cared about the relationship between father and son.

Otherwise, how could it be possible for the King of Wei to stay in the Palace of the King of Wei and live a quiet life.
