Chapter 251 The final reminiscence
"Princess Chu, please don't deceive yourself. You should know very well that King Yun and King Wei came here unexpectedly not entirely because of the prince and father's intention to rebel, but because of the Lingnan corruption case!" Mrs. Xuanpinghou said at the right time. He stabbed her heart with a knife: "When the prince embezzled the money for the construction of the Lingnan river embankment, I was not with the prince, nor did I participate in it. It was you, Princess Chu, who stayed by the prince's side day and night. I don't believe you didn't know what the prince had done. What?"
"..." Princess Chu's face turned pale.
They were husband and wife, and even though the prince had never told her in detail, as his pillow, she knew some things more or less!
Mrs. Xuanpinghou saw the changes in her expression: "You knew that what the prince had done, once it was revealed, would inevitably affect the entire Chu Palace, but you did not dissuade her. Now that you are in this situation, you can't help it." Who do you blame?”
Mrs. Xuanpinghou has a certain attitude. The mother and daughter are not having a good time, and no one can hope to have a good time!
"As a wife of the imperial concubine, even if I try to persuade the prince, he may not listen. And even if this matter is exposed one day, the emperor will definitely spare the lives of everyone in the Chu Palace for the sake of brotherhood. , but it would be good if your father and the prince’s conspiracy succeeds, but if it fails, our entire Prince Chu Palace will lose their lives!” At this point, Princess Chu looked at their mother and daughter with an increasingly unkind look: “You and yours. My daughter and the entire Prime Minister’s Palace are a complete disaster!”
"It's obviously the fault of you, mother and daughter, and the entire Prime Minister's Palace, but now you want to blame the princess. Isn't it too shameful for you?" Concubine Zheng accused angrily.
"That's right! It's obviously your fault, so you can't even think of shifting the responsibility to your mother and concubine!" Duguhan agreed.
"In my opinion, mother and daughter just need a lesson. A good beating will make them behave!"
……
Faced with their words and unkind glances, Liu Qing'er and her daughter swallowed their retorts hard.
Now, almost all the female relatives of Prince Chu's residence are locked up in this room. If they speak rashly again, who knows if they will actually take action?
But at this moment, the disparity in their numbers forced them to choose to swallow their anger!

Outside.
The guards who listened to their quarrel sneered with disdain.
"These women are really funny. They have fallen into this situation. Shouldn't the culprit be the King of Chu who has wolfish ambitions? They don't blame the King of Chu, but they are still biting each other here. It's really funny! "One of the guards couldn't help but complain.
"Who says it's not!" Another guard agreed, and then said nonchalantly: "Never mind them! Make as much noise as you like, as long as no one is killed!"
"makes sense!"
-
a few days later.
Liu Qing'er and her daughter had walked all the way to the capital. The shoes on their feet had long been worn out, and their hair hung loosely on both sides, covering their pale and thin faces. At first glance, they didn't look like a lady at all. , said he was a beggar on the roadside, I’m afraid some people believed him!
The common people who heard the news first were waiting on both sides of the road with rotten vegetable leaves, rotten eggs and other things in their hands. After seeing the figures of King Chu and others, they immediately threw the things in their hands towards them without hesitation. They threw it hard.
"A prince with a fiefdom is actually greedy for the money used to build a river embankment. He is not afraid that someone with more money will crush him to death!"
"A person with a black heart would not be afraid of being crushed to death by money. He would like to have as much money as possible!"
"Heart-hearted people like them should be beaten hard, preferably directly to death!"
"Yes! It should be smashed hard to seek justice for the innocent people in Lingnan who died tragically!"
……
The surrounding people were excited, shouting and cursing, and throwing rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs in their hands.
The guards who were escorting King Chu and others were so frightened that they subconsciously stayed away from the prison car, for fear that they would accidentally cause disaster to the fish pond!
When did King Chu and others, who had always been pampered and pampered, receive such treatment, they subconsciously held their heads and wanted to dodge. However, they were trapped in the prison car at the moment and had no room to dodge. They could only be forced to endure their chaos. Smash and curse!
Being hit by a rotten egg again, King Chu's eyes became scarier. If looks could kill, I am afraid that the people on both sides of the road would have been cut to pieces by him!
Half an hour later...
After sending Princess Chu and others to the heavenly prison, King Chu, who was briefly cleaned of dirt, was escorted by the guards to Dugu Fan and Dugu Wei.

After entering the capital, the moment he saw the complete absence of swords and swords, and the broken eaves and broken walls left behind, the hope of a comeback that King Chu had cherished along the way was completely shattered!
So much so that at this moment, even after being cleaned up briefly, his face was still ashen!
"Father wants to see you!" Dugu Fan said bluntly without any nonsense.
When King Chu heard this, he came to his senses in a daze: "Winning king or losing bandit, my brother wants to see me now, is it because he wants to see my joke?"
"Uncle Emperor, from the moment you started thinking about things you shouldn't have, you were already a joke!" Dugu Wei sneered unceremoniously.
"..." King Chu's eyes were sharp.
"What? Uncle Huang is angry?" Dugu Wei asked knowingly: "It's a pity that the things that can make Uncle Huang angry are still behind! Uncle Huang, please be gentle, lest you accidentally die of anger, which will not be worth the gain. "
"..." King Chu heard this, took a deep breath, and suppressed the frustration and anger in his heart: "...Didn't you say that Brother Huang wants to see me? Let's go!"
Duguwei raised his eyebrows.
Got it!
Knowing that you can't get any advantage from him, you still know how to change the subject!
Consider him sensible!
Two quarters of an hour later...
The King of Chu was escorted outside the imperial study.
Eunuch Fu, who had been waiting for a long time, hurriedly took three steps forward and said, "You two princes have had a hard time traveling all the way. Your Majesty wants you to go back home and rest first!"
"Father, you want to meet your uncle alone?" Dugu Fan frowned slightly, with a hint of worry in his eyebrows.
"King Huiyun! The emperor said that he and the King of Chu have not seen each other for many years, and he wants to have a final talk of brotherhood with the King of Chu!" Eunuch Fu respectfully replied.
Hearing this, Dugu Fan glanced at the shackled King Chu, but said nothing more.
"Remember to protect your father!" Dugu Wei warned worriedly.
"Don't worry, King Wei! Even if I risk my life, I will definitely protect the emperor!" Mr. Fu said fairly.
Duguwei nodded.
Eunuch Fu nodded to them again, and then waved to the two guards escorting King Chu, gesturing for them to follow.
The two guards immediately escorted King Chu and followed him towards the imperial study.
