Chapter 252 The Emperor Angrily Rebuked the Third Prince
Why can we tolerate Chen Xiao but not the third prince?
This shocked the third prince.
In other words, what did you do to the emperor?
While he was shocked, he was also a little scared.
When the emperor saw that he didn't speak or was in a hurry, he waited quietly.
The third prince was silent for a moment and spoke:
"Father, if my son did something wrong, please...Father said it straight!"
"I'm asking you now?" the emperor frowned.
"This... I don't know!" the third prince spoke.
The emperor snorted: "Do you really don't know, or pretend to be confused? You know it in your heart!"
The third prince lowered his head, but was still silent!
The emperor said unhappily:
"Okay, then I will tell you. The reason why I can tolerate Chen Xiao and indulge Chen Xiao is because Chen Xiao never does anything that harms the people and insults the court.
He has his own bottom line and his own reason when doing things. This truth can convince anyone and make it impossible for me to be really angry with him from the bottom of my heart!”
The third prince continued to remain silent. The emperor looked at the third prince and continued:
"But what about you? What about your bottom line?"
The third prince buried his head very low.
The emperor said: "At the beginning, you avenged your mother and went against Chen Xiao. I can understand, but what did you do?
If you use the Ministry of Revenue to rectify the matter of not being able to get money and food, you are forcibly blamed on Chen Xiao. As a prince, don’t you think it’s ridiculous that you did this?"
The third prince's head is even lower!
"You can't steal a chicken and lose a lot of rice, but you're cheated by Chen Xiao. Are you happy? I know this more than anyone else, but I just don't want to help you because you deserve it!"
Taking a deep breath, the emperor shook his head: "Not to say these, I will just say the key points. Do you admit that the prefect of Shunning Prefecture and Chen Xiao were doing the same thing? Is it your instructing?"
The third prince was shocked and said, "Father, son minister... no... no..."
"Third brother, do you think I am a fool..." The emperor was a little angry!
The third prince was so scared that he said: "My son is not afraid, father, son... I was confused for a moment, please calm down!"
"Ha, I still say the same thing, you are the prince. But what did you do? In order to get against Chen Xiao, you actually hindered him from disaster relief. Do you know that you are indirectly harming those people?
Do you know you are doing stupid things? Are you doing something wrong with Chen Xiao? You are doing something wrong with the country, the people, the court, and the me!"
The emperor almost yelled out the last few words, and he smashed a teacup suddenly, which scared the third prince's heart almost jumped out!
The emperor calmed down his mind and continued:
"Fortunately, Chen Xiao has the ability to easily solve your trick, and did not cause much suffering to the people in the disaster area, nor did it expand its influence.
Otherwise, it is really because of your selfishness that there will be problems in disaster relief in the disaster area. I will not be stupid enough to blame Chen Xiao, I will cut you down!"
The old eunuch was shocked. He rarely saw the emperor get so angry, and he was a little at a loss at this moment!
The third prince was so scared that he was completely confused.
To be honest, he never thought it was so serious!
"Father...Father, my son knows that he is wrong, he knows that he is wrong...I'm sorry, my father..."
The emperor snorted coldly: "I'm sorry? You're sorry for yourself. In addition, you should thank Chen Xiao for not being selfish and justly solving the disaster relief problem.
Otherwise, if he deliberately does not complete the disaster relief task because of your targeting, he will bring the prefect back to the court to prove you. Then how can you afford this crime of destroying disaster relief and the survival of one or two million people?"
The third prince was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
"Oh... why did I give birth to a group of sons like you? One is stupider than the other, all are fools, all are fools!" The emperor cursed angrily!
The old eunuch whispered: "Your Majesty calms down, the dragon body is important..."
"Yes, my father, I know that my son is wrong. I am willing to punish him according to my father..." The third prince was already scared.
The emperor snorted: "Of course I will punish you. Please let me know. From now on, you are not allowed to leave the palace. Stay for me in your mother's attic. After a while, I will be the king of you. You... Get out of the palace for me and open the palace by yourself!"
The third prince suddenly looked up and wanted to say something, but... he felt his throat was blocked and he couldn't say it!
In the Dragon Kingdom, there is no special situation when the prince was conferred the title of king.
First, when you are old, it's time to be crowned king.
Second, he has a strong ability. The emperor wants to be the king of him and acquiesced to go out and expand his power.
Third, the emperor did not like this prince and did not want to see him. He sent him out of the palace and made him king!
However, so far, among the emperor's sons, only the eldest and second princes have been crowned kings.
The eldest prince went to the northern border a few years ago and guarded the border. He had very strong abilities. He was obviously the result of the emperor's importance.
The second prince has been in the south, and there are many disasters in the south. He replaced the court and managed disasters in various places, and was also very capable. It was self-evident that he was named king at the time because of his ability.
As a result, when I arrived at the third prince, I did something wrong. The emperor was the same as when he drove him out of the house. Can that be the same?
If the standards for being a king were so different from that in the beginning, then how could we compete with the eldest prince and the second prince for the yellow throne in the future?
"Father, my son knows that he is wrong. I want to serve my father in the palace. Don't drive my son out of the palace..."
The third prince knew very well that it would be difficult for him to win favors from the emperor because he was angry.
Therefore, he would rather continue to be in the palace, at least in front of the emperor, and slowly improve the emperor's attitude.
But the emperor did not let him continue to say it, waved his hand and said, "I am very disappointed with you, so let it go. Go down, go find Chen Xiao and apologize to him!"
"father……"
"roll!"
The third prince was so scared that he didn't dare to say much, so he kowtowed and left quickly.
Although I was very dissatisfied, I dared not ignore the emperor's words, so I could only look bitter and prepare to find Chen Xiao.
At this time, the Seventh Prince emerged from somewhere.
"Brother Three, what's wrong with you? He's frowning?"
The third prince took a deep breath: "Get out!"
"What's wrong with you? You feel uncomfortable when Chen Xiao comes back? Oh, did you think of him stunned your money? Alas, I understand, after all, I can be considered as cheating me of more than 200,000 taels of silver."
The third prince gritted his teeth: "Get out..."
"Brother Three Emperors, tell me the truth, how did you solve the money problem?"
The third prince clenched his fists, even though he was a half-brother, he wanted to kill this idiot!
But he held back and headed out of the palace!
"Brother Three, where are you going?" asked the Seventh Prince.
"Tell me, or I will follow!"
The third prince was so angry that his body was trembling. He couldn't say that he would apologize to Chen Xiao, right?
Think about it and said, "My money...is borrowed..."
The Seventh Prince: "Hahaha, I knew you borrowed it too."
The third prince thought that this matter was over and was about to leave.
