Liu Shangshu ordered: "There is a person in the Criminal Department, who is proficient in various punishment methods throughout the ages, and he will be called again tomorrow, and Bao Zhun'er will make the prince happy." ”

The prince came out of the water prison in a rage and wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, "Look at me tightly, you can't let this person die before I do it." ”

"Yes, the lower officials will ask someone to watch it." Liu Shangshu ordered to arch his hand.

The prince breathed a sigh of relief and walked up the steps.

Liu Shangshuling glanced at the dying people in the water prison, thought of his calm and relaxed appearance when he was killed, and thought of his calm and calm appearance in the palace before the trip to Liangzhou, and thought of the way to and from Liangzhou, their plans were repeatedly foiled, and they lost their wives and soldiers, and Liu Shizhong's triumphant look......

Looking at Pu Yangxuan's tragic situation again, he suddenly felt extremely happy in his heart!

Tomorrow, I want to take a good look at how the prince tortured Pu Yangxuan.

He raised the corners of his lips, without the tree of the King of Chu, what is the point of Liu Shizhong going against him? Do you want to wait for other young princes to grow up? I'm afraid that at that time, the crown prince had already sat firmly on the throne and had been stable for many years.

He breathed a sigh of relief, motioned to the jailer to lock the door, and then followed in the footsteps of the prince.

Tranquility returned to the water prison, and those who had been held here for years were still staring with demented eyes, not even moving their eyeballs, except for the occasional blink of an eyelid.

Suddenly, there was a rustling sound from a dark corner, and the two men walked out into the firelight, the jailer indifferent to their presence.

Looking at the blood on the water, one of them spoke: "Tsk, this is called the heart of a human-faced beast, right?" His Royal Highness the Prince, who has always been gentle and approachable, still has such a brutal side. ”

"You can only see one or two under this ground."

The jailer opened the cell door, and one of them walked in, untied the ropes, carried the man tied to the stake to the stone path, and dragged him out of the water prison.

He leaned down and tore open his blood-stained midcoat, the scars crisscrossing it sent chills down his back.

Although these scars are not enough to kill people, they are also painful.

"It's too ruthless, it's really too ruthless, you see, above the water, there is almost no good place."

"So, it's time for another one."

"Hmm."

The next morning, as soon as the officials finished saluting, Liu Shangshuling immediately jumped out and bitterly stated the various crimes of the king of Chu, and the excitement of the emotions made people think that the king of Chu had committed a major crime of rebellion!

As soon as he finished speaking, many officials immediately echoed and asked the emperor to give the king of Chu death to calm the people's hearts.

Liu Shangshuling first observed the emperor's face, he seemed to be thinking, his eyes looked fixedly at the fold in his hand, and then he looked around, so unexpected, and then found that Zhongshuling was not there.

I thought I had expected this for a long time, so I didn't want to face it, right?

Looking at Liu Shizhong again, he lowered his eyes, his eyes looked at the ground, and there was no expression on his face.

He smiled in his heart, I'm afraid I'm going to cry where no one is, right?

In the midst of a petition, the crown prince stood up unhurriedly and said sadly: "Your Majesty, although the consequences of the King of Chu's dereliction of duty are very serious, please remember that when he did not assist too much of the court, he was too young and unfamiliar, and spared the death penalty of the King of Chu!" ”

Liu Shangshu ordered: "The king of Chu is deeply sinful and does not know how to repent, so it is not appropriate to give him a chance." The prince's intercession for the king of Chu is really touching, but his sins can only be paid for with death! ”

The prince said: "However, this is the first time that the king of Chu has committed a crime, or he should be exempted from the death penalty to show the emperor's mercy!" ”

"What about the people who died of the plague, and how can the boiling grievances outside be quelled?" Liu Shangshuling said coldly: "The trip to Liangzhou still proves that the King of Chu is not able to do anything, but he still has to take the credit for repairing the canals and dams, which shows the bad heart of his heart!" ”

The officials chanted again.

The emperor closed the fold, "In this case, the king of Chu, Puyang Xuan, should be punished for his dereliction of duty, and I will not shield and tolerate him because he is the heir of the royal family, and live up to the expectations of the people in the world." Therefore, I decreed that he should commit suicide. ”

When the prince heard this, his blood immediately boiled, and he felt every hair on his skin shouting, and he couldn't wait to rush to the cell of Dali Temple immediately!

Liu Shangshuling led hundreds of officials to chant "Emperor Shengming".

Liu Shizhong glanced at Liu Shangshuling with a smile, and was aware of it, and Liu Shangshuling raised his eyebrows at him provocatively.

Let's take a look, even if Pu Yangxuan is the eldest son of the emperor, the emperor will not think of the father-son relationship at all!

"Liu Aiqing," the emperor looked at Liu Shizhong, "I will order you to send poisoned wine to the prison." ”

When the prince and Liu Shangshuling heard this, they became unhappy at the same time.

Liu Shangshu ordered: "Your Majesty, continue to leave this matter to the ministers, right?" The dungeon of Dali Temple is dark and damp, and I am afraid that it is not good for people of Liu Shizhong's age. ”

Liu Shizhong didn't speak.

The emperor said: "Liu Shangshuling has worked hard for a day and a night, it is really not easy to find out so quickly, it is better to go back and rest early." ”

"......" Liu Shangshuling pouted secretly, did he look tired? It is the minister's duty to share the emperor's worries. ”

"I've already said it, does Liu Shangshuling want me to retract my previous words?" The emperor looked at Liu Shangshuling expressionlessly.

His heart suddenly tightened, and he didn't dare to argue anymore.

The meaning of those words was as if if if he had argued a few more words, and the emperor would have taken back even the words of death.

He avoided Liu Shizhong's gaze a little embarrassed, and did not look at the prince.

If Liu Shizhong personally sent Pu Yangxuan on the road, it would be very painful, and this pain would entangle him to death.

Thinking about it this way, he was also relieved, anyway, Pu Yangxuan's death was already irreparable.

"Go ahead, Liu Aiqing." The emperor spoke again, "It's better to break it early." ”

"Yes, I obey." Liu Shizhong made a move, and then withdrew from the main hall.

Liu Shangshu ordered: "Your Majesty, the minister suggested that a notice be drafted immediately, and when the king of Chu is in power, it will be announced to the world immediately." ”

"Hmm." The emperor nodded.

The prince looked at the emperor, Liu Shangshuling, and then at the entrance of the hall, opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say, so he could only look at Liu Shangshuling and signal him to say something more.

Liu Shangshuling pretended not to see it.

The prince was a little annoyed, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he could only think about going back and finding something to teach Liu Fangshi a lesson.

At this time, other officials came out to play important matters, and the matter of the king of Chu seemed to have been revealed, and the emperor still listened to the courtiers with a blank face.

The prince felt that he had become an ant on a hot pot, and he couldn't stand properly on the hall, and his face turned red unconsciously.

The emperor suddenly glanced at him and asked, "Is the prince thinking about his brother?" ”

The prince hurriedly responded: "Your Majesty, my son wants to send his eldest brother on his last journey...... "It's a big deal to wait for Pu Yangxuan to drink the poisoned wine, and then send the old thing in Liu Shizhong away, doesn't he still have the opportunity and time to torture Pu Yangxuan?"

The emperor sighed, "Such a brotherly ......"

Liu Shangshu winked at the prince vigorously, the emperor didn't care about the love of father and son at all, the prince was still talking about brotherhood at this time, it would make the emperor unhappy!

The prince didn't think so much for a while, and looked at his father with a sincere face.

The emperor nodded, "He is my eldest son, and I should go and see it too." ”
