Liu Shangshu was confused.

The emperor, who gave his son to death so easily, and didn't care about the love of husband and wife at all, what happened at this time?

The prince was also a little flustered.

Although a reasonable explanation can be given for beating Pu Yangxuan, he still feels that he can't let the emperor go to the prison to take a look.

What if he saw Pu Yangxuan being beaten so badly, and suddenly felt sympathy?

After all, at this moment, he suddenly remembered to go to see his son who was about to die, what the emperor was planning, who could have guessed?

The crown prince and Liu Shangshuling glanced at each other, and no one dared to act rashly.

The other officials did not dare to say a word.

The temple fell into an awkward silence for a moment.

A hint of amusement appeared in the emperor's eyes, "Why don't you persuade me not to go to that kind of place?" ”

The corners of Liu Shangshuling's mouth twitched a few times, "The emperor is in good health, just like a young man in his twenties and thirties, so naturally he doesn't have to be as cautious as Liu Shizhong." ”

"yes, yes."

Liu Shangshuling was really tired of the emperor's very strange tone of saying the words "yes, yes", and he always felt that there was a sarcasm in it.

However, he can't have any objections, even if he is a high-ranking official of Shangshu.

The emperor said: "Let's get here this morning." He got up and shook his robe, "I'm going to change my clothes, the prince and Liu Shangshuling will wait for me, and we'll go together later." ”

The crown prince and Liu Shangshuling had no choice but to respond: "Yes, the emperor." ”

Some of the officials left quickly, leaving the Cai faction to look at the crown prince and Liu Shangshuling.

"Nothing could go wrong, would it?" Someone asked.

Liu Shangshuling waved his hand and said forcefully: "The King of Chu deserves it, and the emperor personally ordered him to die, what can be the problem?" ”

The prince secretly tugged at Liu Shangshuling's sleeve and motioned for him to come aside to speak.

"Hurry up and go back to your yamen, don't you have to do anything today?" Liu Shangshuling shouted, Liu Shizhong and Zhongshuling were not there, naturally he was the only one who was the boss of the officials, and he could shout as much as he wanted.

There was a faint look of anger between his eyebrows and eyes, and everyone hurriedly slipped away.

In the palace, only the crown prince and Liu Shangshu were left, and the two looked around and hid behind the curtain.

"I don't feel right...... the prince simply expressed his worries, "If my father sees Pu Yangxuan's miserable appearance, will he question that he is too ruthless and blame you?" Will someone from Dali Temple see me, recognize me, and tell my father that I came yesterday? ”

Liu Shangshu ordered: "His Royal Highness the Prince, the lower officials beg you not to think too much and be calm, otherwise the emperor will definitely see the clues, but will suspect that you have a problem!" ”

His tone was fierce, and the prince shrank his neck in fright.

Liu Shangshuling coughed dryly, "The matter is a foregone conclusion, so don't scare yourself by yourself." ”

"Good ......" The prince took a deep breath and calmed down.

Liu Shangshuling was afraid that he would not feel at ease, so he comforted him again, "Isn't the lower official also here, and he will be thoughtful for the prince." ”

"Alright then......" the prince nodded.

Liu Shangshuling glanced at the prince and said quietly: "Moreover, after the matter is done, the prince can also do some things he wants to do by the way......

The prince's eyes lit up, "By the way, I don't know if Liu Shizhong will notify Princess Chu to collect the body......"

Liu Shangshu ordered: "The king of Chu and the princess have a deep relationship, and when they learn the news, they should rush to Dali Temple, will they ...... then?"

He didn't make his words clear, the prince himself knew it.

At that time, the prince can use the excuse to help collect the body and send the princess of Chu back. The woman who is sinking in grief and pain needs warmth and comfort the most, so the prince can take the opportunity to take the princess of Chu.

The prince had a foolish smile on his face, rubbed his hands, and couldn't wait to go to Dali Temple, but those nervousness and uneasiness were thrown out of the clouds.

The two came to the outside of the main hall, and after waiting for a long time, Gonggong Ning came to inform them that the carriage was waiting outside the Changle Gate.

They hurried over, and the two carriages, the emperor was naturally on the palatial car in front, and the one behind them was shabby and dilapidated, but the two didn't say a word and got into the carriage.

After waiting for a while, the carriage drove towards the imperial city, crossed the long road, and came to Dali Temple.

At the gate of Dali Temple, except for the people guarding the door, there was no half of the figure, and it was quiet in all directions.

The emperor did not show any dissatisfaction with the lack of greeting, and the gatekeeper led the way diagonally in front of him, and everyone went straight to the prison.

The crown prince said softly: "Didn't Liu Shizhong notify Princess Chu to come over?" ”

The gatekeeper said: "Princess Chu is not in Dali Temple. ”

"Did you not notice, or did you not want to come?" The prince asked again.

The gatekeeper said: "Liu Shizhong sent someone to the Chu Palace. ”

"Princess Chu has been living in Dongshi recently, not in the Chu Palace!" The prince shouted dissatisfiedly, "Fool. ”

The emperor glanced at him obliquely, his eyes were faint, and there was no emotion.

But the prince was shocked.

Liu Shangshuling said slowly: "Send someone to the East Market to have a look." Princess Chu is the wife of the king of Chu, so she should come and see it. ”

Saying this, he remembered that Princess Chu was the eldest daughter of Duke Wei, but the emperor had not yet arranged for Princess Chu. Or is the emperor and Wei Guo just and dissatisfied with this marriage, and will make other arrangements for Princess Chu?

He looked at the prince.

The prince shrunk like a quail.

The emperor said: "Since someone has been sent, the Chu Wangfu can't find anyone, and he will definitely go to Dongshi, don't worry about it anymore." ”

The prince simply replied "yes".

The group came to the prison, and Liu Shizhong and Dali Siqing finally came forward.

"Your Majesty, the King of Chu has not yet drunk the poisonous wine, is there anything else to explain?" Liu Shizhong asked.

The emperor said: "Just look, there is nothing to say." ”

The crown prince and Liu Shangshuling glanced at each other, and silently followed the emperor into the prison.

Pu Yangxuan was lifted from the dungeon to the cell near the gate, spacious, clean and bright, not quite like a place to execute people.

The prince looked around, and saw Pu Yangxuan wearing a white middle coat, sitting cross-legged in the center of the cell with his eyes closed, and when he heard the sound of footsteps, he slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were cold and calm, and he seemed to have indifferent to the question of life and death.

Seeing the emperor, Puyang Xuan changed his sitting to kneeling and saluted the most noble man in the Great Zhou.

The emperor looked at his eldest son without any expression, and the strange father and son looked at each other quietly.

The prince's face changed.

Yesterday, he beat Pu Yangxuan severely, why can he sit here safely now, how can he easily change his posture and salute his father?

What's more, he doesn't have the slightest scar on his face!

Obviously, he was beaten yesterday and his face was covered in blood!

The prince's body trembled slightly.

What kind of demon and monster is Puyang Xuan, who can make him heal from his injuries overnight?!
