"People are gone?"

The emperor frowned when he heard Wei Zhongzhong's reply, and then asked: "In that case, then send someone to chase him back quickly. We can't let him continue to act nonsense!"

"Here!"

Wei Zhongzhong cupped his hands and backed away, then went to give the order, but his heart became colder and colder. He couldn't understand that the emperor's words sounded like reproaches, but in fact he picked them up high and dropped them gently.

It stands to reason that those important ministers are still standing opposite, and the tears on Sikong Wang Xu's old face have not yet dried. According to the emperor's past habits, he should have scolded him like a storm first. After all,

This time, not only important officials of the imperial court were involved, but two courtyard manors were also demolished by the prince!

As a result, when the emperor arrived, he just casually ordered people to recover the prince.

However, even though his thoughts were running through his mind, Wei Zhongzhong did not dare to show it, but instead quickly passed on the order.

The others were also average, and no important ministers were seen speaking out. Even the real person involved, Sikong Wang Xu, remained silent, as if he was really waiting for the emperor to make a fair decision.

However, at the end, after receiving further information, the emperor simply gave instructions: "Since Du Mo was fully involved in what happened today, we might as well let him lead the troops and hurry up to recover them for me.

, if we really go to the Northland and something happens, we will be in trouble."

As soon as the order was sent out, several important ministers looked at each other and understood the emperor's intention. Naturally, they didn't say anything more. Even Wang Xu just sighed and left quickly, citing his poor health.

When they arrived at home - this was naturally not the original Sikong Mansion, but another residence of the Wang family in the city. It occupied a large area and was surrounded by many people almost every day, hoping to find opportunities here.

climb.

But today, the place is extremely deserted, with not even a trace of the vendors and lackeys on the surrounding streets.

Wang Xu walked down from the carriage and saw the scene in front of him. He just sighed and was not surprised. In the political arena, it is normal for people to walk away. Although he was not considered walking away, he could

There is no shortage of well-informed people in Jiankang City. After learning about the crown prince's deeds and knowing the emperor's methods of dealing with things, some people can't help but think too much.

"My lord, the prince is shameless! He is arrogant and unscrupulous! There will be disaster! Don't get so angry!"

The steward who came to greet him saw Wang Xu tremblingly walking down and saw the haggard look on his face. He immediately went over to comfort him. However, before he could say a few words, he was interrupted by the old Sikong himself.

.

"There is no need to say these words anymore. Now that the Holy One has made a decision, even if we take action, it will be useless. The most urgent thing is to find out first what my unsatisfactory son has done to cause such a situation.

movement!"

Having said that, when Wang Xu really learned about his son and how miserable he was, he immediately desperately mobilized his connections and finally met Wang Xingke.

After seeing his son lying with a pale face in the corner of the dark house, Wang Xu couldn't help but burst into tears.

"My son..."

At this moment, all his complaints and anger were thrown to the back of his mind, and only his heart felt for this little boy.

Wang Xingke opened his eyes in a daze, and when he saw his old father, he immediately became energetic, then looked ashamed, and then his eyes were evasive.

When Wang Xu saw this, he regained a little clarity in his heart, so he asked: "Tell me honestly what you did without telling me. Although the prince has a ridiculous reputation, looking at what he did when he was patrolling in the south,

The city is also very deep, and there are many hidden things in the past. Since he has found you, there must be a reason for him to be in such a situation."

When Wang Xingke heard this, he just cried out in pain and did not dare to say anything.

When Wang Xu saw this, he still sighed and continued: "You are my son, and my blood is in your blood. You have done something wrong. Everyone in the world despises you, so how can a father abandon you? But if you don't

To be honest, even if you have a desire to protect yourself as a father, how do you know where to put your efforts?"

"Father..." Tears welled up in Wang Xingke's eyes, and he finally hesitated and explained intermittently what he had done.

Wang Xu became silent as he listened. Finally he shook his head and sighed: "You are confused!"

Wang Xingke felt even more ashamed.

Wang Xu looked at him and said: "Do you think your father said you were confused because you colluded with Beidi? Wrong, since you colluded with Beidi, you shouldn't hesitate. Since you have decided to do it, at least you have to do it.

Make sure the benefits are clear, but from beginning to end, do you know what you can get? As for the prince, his people, you either don't move. Since you want to move, how can you use those people in the world?"

His tone was calm and he didn't seem angry.

"In short, you don't have to ask about this matter anymore. Since it involves people from the North and the prince knows about it, it is difficult to solve it. If it were normal, the father would have no choice but to retreat and plead guilty, report to his old age and return to his hometown.

But things are different now. When the prince went north, whether it was a pretense or he really had some trump cards, he ultimately took a dangerous move..."

Saying this, Wang Xu stood up tremblingly.

"This time of disaster, our Wang family is in trouble. Even if we can get away with it for a while, we will definitely be held accountable later. The best situation is just to resign quietly. Logically speaking, my father should take the opportunity to retreat, but you look like this.

I can't say..." He couldn't help but gritted his teeth after all, "As a father, I want to seek justice for you! Could it be that those two martial arts practitioners are still comparable to you?"

After saying this, he didn't stay here long and left in a hurry.

This place was used for house arrest. The environment was ordinary, but it belonged to a prison. Even though Wang Xu had a special status, it was difficult to treat him too much. When he left, the officials and subordinates around him breathed a sigh of relief.

Soon, Wang Xu died of old age and asked for an edict to return to his hometown.

When the emperor saw it, he refused without even looking at it, and then spoke to comfort him.

Wang Xu took the opportunity to admit his mistake, and said that there was a misunderstanding between him and the prince, and he wanted to resolve it, so he recommended his nephew to work under the prince's door.

When the emperor heard this, he laughed and immediately made up his mind.

But there is still a problem at the moment——

The prince has not recovered it yet.

"Since your nephew Wang Chong is originally from a criminal background, has a lot of experience, and has good skills, then you might as well take someone with you to go with Du Mo and bring back my troublesome son, and you don't know who he is.

Now we’re there.”

Following the emperor's order, the matter was quickly settled.

Wang Xu's nephew, Wang Chong, was even called to the secret room of his home alone, where he gave instructions and revealed a lot of information——

"Three days ago, the prince left. Now news comes from the front line that the prince has crossed the border and entered the territory of Dongzhao. Therefore, if you go there this time, you will definitely step into it. Then Du Mo has speculative intentions. This

Otherwise, he is just patrolling the capital, and he is already quite a military commander, so why would he risk entering the territory of the Northern Dynasty? He will be an obstacle to you on this trip, so you have to weigh it carefully as to how you can use your strength."

Wang Chong has an ordinary appearance and an ordinary temperament, but when he heard this, he was neither humble nor arrogant. He responded: "Uncle, don't worry, my nephew has returned from studying skills and inherited thousands of years of practice. Even if the prince is gone, he will never come back!"
