Chapter 165 The Prince Falls Out of Favor(1/2)
"Please, Father, have mercy!"
"The Shen family may have been wronged. This matter has become known to everyone. Someone must have done it deliberately."
"Besides, grandpa..."
"Shut up!"
In the Taihe Hall, she has a bun on her head, a slate green robe, and a white jade pendant hanging on her waist. Her eyebrows are slightly childish, and she looks twice like the eldest prince of Emperor Dingkang, Jian Yuanyou.
The hoarse voice of a man defended and begged the Shen family.
Personally, it is understandable that he said a few nice words to his grandfather out of concern.
However, what the Shen family committed were not ordinary small mistakes, but heinous crimes of murder, arson, robbery, and the destruction of the foundation of the country.
Yu Gong, he is the prince of the Dazhao Kingdom, and he is the legitimate prince born in a dignified palace. In the face of the righteousness of the family and the country, he must first distinguish between public and private affairs, and make good and evil known!
Unfortunately, he didn't!
His far-fetched remarks also made Emperor Dingkang furious.
It was obvious that the emperor's anger overwhelmed this seventeen-year-old boy.
His body trembled slightly, he clenched his hands and hid them in his sleeves, gritted his teeth and resisted the fear without bowing his head, with a childish look on his face with a bit of stubbornness, just like that, he was holding the royal pen on the dragon chair with a furious look on his face.
Emperor Dingkang stared at him condescendingly and looked at each other.
"Pa..."
Seeing his stubborn and innocent look, Emperor Dingkang was furious, with evil eyes in his eyes. He threw away the cinnabar brush in his hand, stood up and came down from the top.
Eunuch Guan, who was waiting on the side, was so frightened that he didn't dare to take a breath, so he just stood quietly with his head lowered.
"He is indeed the grandson of that old thief Shen Qianhai!"
"Okay... very good!"
"I have raised a good son for the Shen family!"
Emperor Dingkang came pacing, stood two or three steps away, stared down at Jian Yuanyou's head and sneered.
Such words made Jian Yuanyou feel cold all over his body, his heart beat faster, his legs and feet felt weak, and he felt panic for no reason.
It was only then that he realized belatedly that he had actually angered Jun's father!
Moreover, it made him hate himself!
"Father...Father, please calm down!"
"I have absolutely no intention of doing so. I just feel that this matter is very suspicious..."
"A lot of doubts?"
The eldest prince, who was finally panicked, knew very well that he could not make Emperor Dingkang dislike him no matter what.
In a panic, he spoke again, but before he could finish his sentence, Emperor Dingkang asked back with an unprecedented coldness. The direct question made him sweat profusely and his face turned to dirt.
"snort!"
Emperor Dingkang looked at the eldest son in front of him carefully with stern eyes.
The more he looked at her, the more disappointed he became, and the more disgust he felt in his heart.
This disgust was not only because of the young man in front of me, but also because of what the Shen family and Queen Shen had done.
In this world, if there is love for the house and the crow, naturally there will be hate for the house and the crow, and the roots are involved!
"I underestimate you!"
After staring at the eldest son in front of him for a long time, Emperor Dingkang sneered again.
This voice was sarcastic, full of disdain and indifference, making the eldest prince's straight back even bend.
He tortured himself over and over again, was what he just said really wrong?
Is the Shen family really that heinous?
He has no answer!
But I know very well in my heart that I must never speak good words for the Shen family again!
"You are young, but your ambition is not small!"
"You think there are a lot of doubts, but are you questioning me?"
"Still dissatisfied with me as the emperor?"
Emperor Dingkang's eyes were cold and ruthless, and he bombarded him with a series of questions, which made the boy tremble and shake, and finally he sat crookedly on the ground.
"Father...Father, forgive me..."
"My son...my son has absolutely no such intention..."
"My son..."
The eldest prince, who was panicking in his heart, wanted to defend himself, but he didn't know what to say more effectively when he opened his mouth.
Coupled with Emperor Dingkang's overwhelming momentum, his whole body was shaking like a sieve, his face was as pale as paper, his tongue was stiff and knotted, and his heart was so messed up that he could not utter a complete sentence.
"But you think you are very capable and want to make decisions for me?"
"I don't dare, I don't dare..."
Emperor Dingkang asked again aggressively, causing the eldest prince Han to stand up from his feet and hurriedly get up and kneel on the ground, kowtow and deny.
"I think you are very brave!"
Emperor Dingkang's eyes were full of coldness and ruthlessness. He shook his sleeves vigorously and turned around and walked towards the imperial case.
He stepped forward and picked up a stack of memorials on the imperial desk, then turned around and stared coldly at the eldest prince who was lying on the ground with his forehead on the ground, already trembling and uneasy.
"Since you care so much about the Shen family, then take a look at these evidences first!"
"Pah——"
Emperor Dingkang finished speaking in a cold voice. Eunuch Guan was just about to step forward to deliver the memorial to the eldest prince. Before he could move his feet, several memorials were thrown out, hitting the eldest prince's head and then scattered around his ears.
Come on.
The hard bamboo slips on the outside of the memorial made the eldest prince’s head hurt, but he still lay down respectfully with his forehead pressed tightly, not daring to have any abnormal reaction.
"Pick it up and read it to see what good things your good wife has done?"
"Let's see if there are any other doubts?"
"Let's see if I have wronged them?"
Seeing the eldest prince lying motionless, Emperor Dingkang became even more angry and pointed at him and shouted angrily.
As for the eldest prince lying on the ground, his body was visibly shaking, and he no longer dared to have any other thoughts except panic, let alone disobey Emperor Dingkang.
"yes--"
He tried hard to calm down his emotions and answered respectfully, then straightened up and stared at the memorial in front of him in a daze.
Emperor Dingkang in front also stared at him with cold eyes.
"Look, let me take a closer look!"
Seeing the eldest prince staring at the memorial on the ground motionless, Emperor Dingkang seemed a little impatient, and then he shouted and urged.
The flustered eldest prince was startled by the angry shout. He quickly leaned forward to pick up several memorials and opened the top one to read;
'Shen killed twelve innocent people and occupied their fertile land...'
The first thing that catches the eye is this line of eye-catching words. Below it is a dense list of countless evil deeds. Even the time, place, and witnesses are noted in detail.
In an instant, the eldest prince's heartbeat quickened, his mind became dizzy, and his mouth became dry.
The panic in his heart and a trace of luck made him unable to continue reading, so he closed the memorial with force, and then opened the second one;
'Shen made weapons privately and...'
Forging weapons privately is a serious crime that will lead to the annihilation of nine tribes!
The eldest prince, who had only glanced at it, was so frightened by these words that he trembled. He even lacked the courage to continue reading the other evidence.
Then, he closed the second memorial with trembling hands.
The evidence listed in these two memorials alone is enough to kill the Shen family several times, let alone several other memorials!
This completely subverted the eldest prince’s understanding!
He closed his eyes tightly in fear, his hands holding the memorial were trembling, and he had no courage to read any more!
Yes!
He was completely scared!
Seeing him like this, Emperor Dingkang's eyes were full of disappointment, and then turned into deep disgust!
"Read it all!"
As if he was not going to let go of the nearly collapsed young man in front of him easily, Emperor Dingkang ordered him with the majesty of an emperor.
