Chapter 251 Superior Skills
"What else did she say?" The emperor deliberately kept a straight face.
Eunuch Su hurriedly said, "The Seventh Princess also said that if a servant cannot kneel down or stand up properly when beside Your Majesty, it will make people laugh and bring shame to Your Majesty."
"He's quite eloquent."
The emperor glanced at Eunuch Su and said, "Alright, get up and call the second son in. I want to see what he has to say."
"Yes, slave, go right away."
As Eunuch Su got busy, he indeed became much more agile.
After everyone left, the emperor couldn't help but shook his head.
After a while, the second prince was brought in by Eunuch Su.
After the person came in, Eunuch Su tactfully retreated.
The Second Prince knelt down and kowtowed solemnly: "Father, I have something to report!"
Before the emperor could open his mouth, Eunuch Su re-entered and reported, "Your Majesty, Concubine Cen and Concubine Xie Hui are waiting outside, and they want to see you."
The second prince frowned, feeling an ominous premonition in his heart.
"Oh?"
The emperor was a little surprised when he heard Concubine Xie Hui: "What a coincidence! Why are you so anxious to see me today?"
Concubine Xie Hui has always been a cold-natured person, never fighting or competing.
Unless the emperor summons her, she will basically not take the initiative to see him.
what is it today?
No, is there really anything wrong?
The emperor thought for a moment and said to Eunuch Su, "Let them wait for a while. Let them go to the side hall to rest. I will summon them later."
"Yes, I'll go right away." Eunuch Su hurriedly retreated.
After everyone left, the emperor looked at the second prince and said, "If you have something to say, please say it quickly."
The Second Prince felt strange, but at this moment he didn't care about anything else. He hurriedly bowed to the emperor and said, "Father, your Majesty, your son's people have found something. Please take a look!"
The second prince then presented the memorial he had prepared earlier.
The eunuch beside the emperor took it and handed it to the emperor. The emperor opened it and frowned after reading the contents.
The second prince was waiting downstairs, and he had already begun to imagine how the emperor would praise him and how he would punish Lu Huaiyang.
However, the emperor threw the memorial directly at the second prince.
It is said that the emperor's health has not been as good as before, and his eyesight and hearing are not as good as before.
As luck would have it, it hit the second prince's forehead directly, making him dizzy and dazed, but he didn't dare to dodge.
The emperor said coldly, "You have nothing to do all day, so you just stare at your brother, right?"
The second prince was stunned and even more surprised.
The emperor shouldn't react like this!
The emperor stared at the second prince, his tone even colder: "I asked the seventh prince to do these things. What else do you have to say?"
"Ah?" The Second Prince was still a little dazed and looked at the Emperor in disbelief.
"Father, how could you possibly have asked him to do this? The Seventh Old Man has only been back in Beijing for a few days. Father, he is just a wolf with ulterior motives. You can't defend him like this. You can't let him deceive you!"
The emperor sneered and said, "His people are growing high-yield crops in Balipo, and the Ministry of Works has also reported it."
"The annual tax revenue hasn't decreased at all. The extra people are just his former subordinates, who were sent to me a long time ago."
"As for the other group that went on barter, their people took out our specialties, and in return they received foreign horses and furs. The items were reported to Lu Zhenghao of the Ministry of Industry, and they were already deposited into the national treasury. Tell me, what's the problem with this?"
"Hmm? Am I going to punish a capable, selfless, and filial son?"
The emperor became furious as he spoke, and threw a teacup and an inkstone at the second prince: "You bastards, don't think I don't know the stupid things you do in private and the people you support!"
"You are all so rich, have you ever been filial to me? Have you ever thought about the interests of the court?"
Not to mention Lu Huaiyang, even his daughter-in-law and grandson miss him every day.
No matter how big or small the matter is, he would give gifts here and there.
How much money from their private treasury would they have to spend to get such a precious thing?
What's wrong with making some money?
What's wrong with supporting some people!
The second prince was really confused now.
I wasn't stunned by the beating, but I was stunned by the emperor's words...
This Old Seven... has such a cunning mind and such sinister methods!
But...it shouldn't be like this!
Everything Lin Wannian said in the letter matched up perfectly.
His people have also secretly checked it and there is no mistake.
The seventh brother was so quick, he must have prepared everything long ago and informed the emperor in advance!
High!
He underestimated the seventh brother!
After a few years of hanging around, his methods have improved a bit compared to before.
"But you, he was injured in Xie Mansion yesterday. He is your man, right?" The emperor looked at the second prince and his tone became completely cold.
The Second Prince shuddered and looked at the Emperor anxiously: "Father, no, it's not me..."
"You still don't admit it?"
The emperor grabbed whatever was nearby and threw it. "Your worthless subordinates have already admitted it! Not only did you want to kill the Seventh Brother, you also poisoned him! You are so cruel! He is your own brother!"
"For my position, are you going to kill me too?!"
"Father, I am innocent. I did not do that. I dare not do that!"
The Second Prince was panicked and anxious: "I didn't poison you..."
He did send people, but he really didn't poison them!
grandma's.
Lao Qi is framing him!
"I know you don't admit it. The people from the Ministry of Justice have already asked about it!"
The emperor looked at the second prince coldly, his tone icy: "You have stayed in the capital for these years and have never suffered any hardship. You really don't know how to cherish this good life."
"When you sent someone to assassinate your own brother, you still had the mood to flirt with other women. You can't deny the affair with Minister Lin's daughter, right?"
"I, I..." The second prince stammered and couldn't answer at all!
The emperor looked at him and said coldly, "Get out of here! Your title of prince is revoked. Don't come to the palace this year! Get out!"
"Father, Father, you can't do this to me!" The second prince was really confused.
He looked at the emperor in complete disbelief, not knowing what to do.
This this……
He was clearly planning things with full confidence, but in the end his own title was stripped away?
Is this right? !
"Someone, drag him out!"
The emperor looked at the second prince and said in a cold tone, "Don't play tricks behind my back, hoping I don't know! Be honest, or you won't get anything done!"
As he spoke, the second prince was "invited" out by several eunuchs.
The hall fell silent.
After a while, the emperor said to Eunuch Su, "Please invite Concubine Cen and Concubine Hui in."
"Yes, slave, go right away."
After a while, Concubine Cen and Concubine Hui were invited in and both knelt before the emperor.
"I see you, Your Majesty!"
