Chapter 244 Naked provocation
At this time, in the sky prison, the dark cell was being tidied up. The torches around the walls were burning brightly, and the cell was brightly lit. A gorgeous bed was placed in the cell, which looked out of place here.

Xue Shao lay lazily on the bed, enjoying the service of the two maids.

"Second Young Master, come on, open your mouth!" Yingying thoughtfully stuffed the fruit into Xue Shao's mouth, leaning forward, revealing a faint spring color, which made Xue Shao's hand become unsteady, if it weren't for his abdomen She was still injured, so he could probably take care of Yingying in this dungeon.

Yanyan massaged his hands on the inside of the bed and shouted with anger and resentment: "Second Young Master! Why don't you look at this slave?"

"Look, you are all my treasures! Let me see them all!" Xue Shao extended his salty pig's trotters to Yan Yan again.

The three of them were laughing and playing on the bed, their moves becoming more and more bold.

At the same time, the emperor, who was visiting privately incognito, left the palace and went to Dingguo Palace accompanied by Dekang.

Duke Dingguo's Mansion, like Duke Anguo's, were both founders of the dynasty. The difference was that Duke Anguo's Palace was passed down to Duke An's generation and gradually declined. However, Duke An was arrogant and did not realize the problem.

The Dingguo Duke's palace is not as prosperous as in the early years, but this generation of Dingguo Duke is well aware of the truth that flowers never bloom for a hundred days, and is worried that the emperor will be jealous of the family's excessive power, so he has always been cautious in his words and actions and kept a low profile.

The old lady in Duke Dingguo's palace is the daughter of the princess. In terms of seniority, the emperor calls her "aunt". Now that the old lady is seriously ill, the emperor is worried and always comes to visit once or twice a month.

Duke Dingguo Shen Zhangwen received the news early and was waiting outside the mansion with his eldest son Shen Yuzong and second son Shen Yuxing.

When the emperor's carriage appeared in sight, the three people immediately stepped forward to greet it, "I pay my respects to the emperor. May the emperor be blessed and safe."

"Everyone, get up!" With Dekang's help, the emperor got off the carriage and walked straight to the steps.

A group of people entered the mansion. Different from the luxurious style of Duke Anguo's mansion, Duke Dingguo's mansion was solemn and simple, without too many ornaments. Naturally, there was no need to worry that the emperor would feel uncomfortable after seeing it.

The old lady was obviously very happy to learn that the emperor had come, but she was also very worried, "The emperor has so many things to do, how can he leave the palace so often and delay political affairs!"

The emperor didn't take it seriously, with a gentle and calm expression, "If my aunt is worried that I will delay my political affairs, it is better to recover as soon as possible. If my aunt is well, I can also review the memorial with peace of mind."

The old lady sighed repeatedly, "I also want to get well soon, but I'm getting older! There will come a day when I can see things openly and there's nothing I can't let go of!"

"Mom! Don't say depressing words!" Dingguo Gong quickly reassured him, "I'll let Yuzong and Yuxing talk to you about the outside world later. Don't you still want to see the cooking competition? How will you go out if you don't recover soon? "

The old lady laughed dumbly, "I just said it casually! You guys took it seriously!"

The emperor pondered for a moment and said: "If my aunt wants to watch it, why not arrange the cooking competition in Duke Dingguo's mansion? The martial arts training ground in the mansion is large enough, and my aunt can also join in the fun."

Duke Dingguo was stunned for a moment, frightened, and knelt down to thank him.

The old lady was flattered and eagerly stopped her, "There's no need to spend so much money on me!"

The emperor slowly shook his head, "I am the only elder left with my aunt, and I should be filial. Even if Geng Yang finds out, he will agree. As long as I take care of my aunt, I don't need to pay attention to others."

The emperor stayed in the old lady's courtyard for a while, and after carefully asking about the old lady's diet and daily life, he got up and left.

Duke Ding saw him off, and as soon as the group walked outside the door of the mansion, they saw Xue Chen kneeling there, his thin body seemed to be broken by the wind and snow.

The emperor subconsciously darkened his face and frowned, "Who is coming?"

Xue Chen kowtowed, "Xue Chen, the prince of Duke Anguo, pays homage to the emperor. Long live the emperor. Long live the emperor."

When the emperor heard the words "An Guogong", his face became a little darker, and it was obvious that his anger was still lingering.

Duke Dingguo looked on and was horrified. He couldn't figure out whether Xue Chen had taken the wrong medicine and actually came to his house to block the emperor. Was it because he thought Duke An's mansion wasn't chaotic enough recently? "Why are you here?" The emperor's voice was unhurried, and his face was neither sad nor happy, with no emotion visible. The more he looked like this, the more oppressive he felt.

Duke Dingguo stood on the edge, feeling like a storm was coming. He wanted to rush over and drive Xue Chen away, at least far away from his home. He didn't want to be affected.

Xue Chen didn't know what Duke Dingguo was thinking. He kept his head on the ground. Hearing the sound, he immediately replied: "Your Majesty, the humble minister is incompetent and cannot dissuade his father. He can only kill the family out of justice. Please move to the dungeon and take a look."

Duke Dingguo was stunned and couldn't recover for a long time.

The emperor remained calm and asked Dekang to change direction without saying a word.

Duke Dingguo didn't want to follow him, and he didn't want to follow him. He also thought that the emperor left the palace for his mother. If something went wrong outside the palace, Duke Dingguo's mansion would be angry, so he quickly asked the housekeeper to arrange for guards to follow him.

A group of people came to the Criminal Department dungeon.

The jailer guarding the gate was a little tired at first, but when he saw the sign displayed by Dekang, he was so frightened that his legs went weak and he knelt down. He was about to salute loudly, but Dekang immediately covered his mouth.

"Don't say anything, or I'll kill you!"

Under Dekang's threat, the jailer did not dare to say anything, but his body was shaking more and more.

The emperor knew there was something wrong inside at the first glance and hurried in.

When he went down to the dungeon, he happened to witness a lively drama.

Although Xue Shao injured his abdomen and couldn't do strenuous activities, his vitality was not injured. He couldn't bear it after being teased by Yingying Yanyan for a few times, so he actually asked two maids to do that to him in the dungeon.

The image was so impactful that Duke Dingguo, who was following him, was frightened, "Is this a dungeon or a prison courtyard? Do you, you people, still have an emperor in your eyes? It is simply a crime that deserves death!"

Duke Dingguo pointed at the jailers and was so angry that he was shaking all over.

Xue Shao and Yingying Yanyan were also so frightened that they crawled off the bed.

The emperor stared at the cell leader, "Tell me, who means that?"

He didn't believe that a prison boss would dare to make such an arrangement.

The cell leader was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. He knelt on the ground and did not dare to hide anything, "This is what Lord Shangshu meant."

"Cao Zhiheng! Haha! It's really good!" The emperor turned and left angrily.

There is only one thought in Lao's mind - it's over! It's all over!
Xue Chen followed the emperor out of the dungeon.

The emperor turned back suddenly, his cold eyes falling on him, as if looking at a dead person.

Xue Chen immediately knelt down and said, "Wei Chen deserves to die!"

"That's damn good!" The emperor gritted his teeth and his cheeks bulged. "Xue Chen, do you know what your doing this means to Duke Anguo?"

"I know! But Wei Chen can't do anything!" Xue Chen cried with grief, "Wei Chen persuaded his father that what happened to his second brother was obviously his own fault and had nothing to do with Uncle Guang En, but my father listened to Instead of persuading him, he forced Wei Chen to teach Uncle Guang En a lesson and stand up for his second brother.

Wei Chen's mother was so angry that she fell ill, but his father forcibly ordered his mother, who was lingering on the sick bed, to go to the palace to give Yucai Ren a banknote to support her.

My father doesn't care about my mother. As a son, I can't just watch my father abuse my mother. Moreover, my father is wrong. I really can't let him make mistakes again and again, pushing Anguo Duke's mansion into the abyss. Wei Chen is also desperate. , this is the only last resort. The emperor wants to fight or kill, but all the ministers admit it! "
