Chapter 85 You Disappointed Me Too Much

It's not that those people have no way to deal with the fourth prince, but firstly, this is still a prince after all, and secondly, the matter has already been exposed to the emperor, and now everyone knows it.Instead of going all out to rescue Liu Dequan, it's better to let Liu Dequan shut up and keep the rest of the Liu family.

When the emperor and the fourth prince were confronting each other, Prince Zhongshun beside him was secretly crying in his heart.

Although he was also involved in this matter, it doesn't mean that he can really dictate to the fourth prince in this matter.As a well-known idle prince, he was able to escape and survive the general election to win the heir apparent, and even become the idle prince who is trusted by the current emperor, not because of his boldness, but because of his carelessness and carelessness. .

So when the atmosphere was stagnant, Prince Zhongshun laughed.

"Oh, it's not necessarily a bad thing for the fourth child to be famous... But it's almost time to eat, the emperor must be considerate and considerate of me, I have to go back first. Hey... My concubine has been really serious lately. Stick me tight..."

The more absurd Prince Zhongshun is, the more relieved His Majesty will be.

He restrained the solemn expression on his face, smiled and looked at Prince Zhongshun, "You, you have liked rouge and gouache since you were a child, but now you are even more stuck in the powder pile!"

Prince Zhongshun grinned, "Brother Huang said yes, but a man, isn't this the good thing? Besides, I have never had any great ambitions. It is enough to lie on the lap of a beautiful woman when I wake up and drunk. A beautiful thing that no one else can ask for!"

The emperor was immediately amused by him, and shook his head, "Forget it, I won't keep you anymore, go back to your beauty's lap!"

Prince Zhongshun immediately felt relieved when he heard this sentence, and hurriedly ran out of the palace after a few funny words.When he returned to his mansion, he escaped from the stagnant atmosphere in the palace just now, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Even though he always stays idle and doesn't care about government affairs, after this incident, Prince Zhongshun has to agree with the views of the other officials in the court.

It seems that his imperial brother...has no intention of helping the fourth prince to take over the throne.

Even if Prince Zhongshun really has no ambitions for that position, Prince Zhongshun has always known that he is worth a few pounds, and he still remembers the cruelty of taking the heirloom back then. people can do it.But having no ambition for that position doesn't mean that Prince Zhongshun doesn't pay much attention to the current princes.

After all, he is living a good life now, and even if he can't live better in the future, he doesn't want his life to be worse.

So even if you don't have the merits of the dragon, you have to choose to have a good relationship with the future emperor in advance, right?

When Prince Zhongshun was enjoying the pampering of his concubine, he was still thinking about the scene he saw today.In short, the fourth prince can be excluded from his list... The remaining princes, the first prince and the second prince seem to be the two most likely to win, and the others... have to watch and see... …

And after Prince Zhongshun left, the eunuch who was trembling and didn't know whether to come in also breathed a sigh of relief, and softly reported, "Your Majesty, it's time for you to eat."

The emperor glanced at the fourth prince who was still kneeling, and snorted coldly.

"Pass the meal."

Since he didn't call Rong Yuan to get up, Rong Yuan naturally couldn't get up, and could only kneel on the ground without saying a word.The surrounding eunuchs and court ladies didn't dare to say anything when they saw it, they could only act as if they didn't see the fourth prince who was kneeling aside, carefully serving the emperor's meal.

Until the emperor finished his meal, Rong Yuan on one side was still ignored by him and knelt on one side for a full hour.

The emperor didn't say anything, and the people around him didn't dare to speculate on the holy will, so Rong Yuan knelt from the early morning to the sunset.

It wasn't until the emperor approved the paperwork for a day that he turned his eyes back to the kneeling Rong Yuan, with no emotion on his face, "You still don't understand what you did wrong until now. Is it?"

Rong Yuan's knees were already numb, and he didn't react when he heard the emperor's question, and he didn't reply until a while later.

"Reporting to the Holy Majesty, my son... I don't know..."

His words immediately made the emperor dissatisfied, "It's really a good sentence!"

The emperor walked up to Rong Yuan and looked down at Rong Yuan, "Ask yourself, what is the reason why you rashly surrounded and arrested Liu Dequan? You said in front of me before that you wanted to find out the behind-the-scenes behind Liu Dequan's body. Black hand, so I don’t want to scare the snake for the time being, I agreed and suppressed the news for you, lest Zhongshun hear the wind and urge you, but what about you now?”

As soon as these words came out, Rong Yuan was speechless.

"Now that you have captured Liu Dequan and everyone in the court is paying attention to this matter, what are you going to do?"

At this moment, Rong Yuan only felt that the numbness from his knee had spread to his whole body, making him unable to move.

"My son... I want to find out from Liu Dequan who is behind the scenes..."

"what!"

His words were interrupted by the emperor in an instant, "How much time do you think you will have to find out who is behind the scenes when the dynasty is in turmoil? Now all the officials from Zhongshun to Baiguan are staring at you. They all want to Let Liu Dequan die, do you know why?"

Rong Yuan fell silent, staring straight at the terrazzo under his knees, without speaking.

Seeing him like this, the emperor couldn't help but sighed, "Fourth brother, you really disappointed me!"

The emperor saw that Rong Yuan's body swayed unconsciously when he said these words, and felt uncomfortable.After all, he was the son brought out by himself, so he finally took a step back.

"I only give you three days. Within these three days, no matter whether you have found any clues or not, after three days, Liu Dequan will be executed by the Meridian Gate!"

Hearing these words, Rong Yuan kowtowed deeply to the emperor with a hoarse voice, "My son... thank you, Your Majesty!"

He retreated from the side hall step by step, and walked out of the imperial city with trembling legs. At the gate of the imperial city, looking at the afterglow of the setting sun in the sky, he let out a deep breath.

Rong Yuan could understand what the emperor meant, Liu Dequan seemed to be in his hands now, but Liu Dequan's life... was not in his hands.

"grown ups……"

Seeing Rong Yuan coming out, the feather guards who were waiting outside surrounded him, Ah Jin directly supported Rong Yuan's arm to let him recover.

"Ah Jin, take me to see Liu Dequan."
