"Although she does not live in the capital, it is her mother Sun's wish to stay in Anyuan Town. What's more, in the other courtyard in Anyuan Town, she has always lived without worries about food and clothing, unlike in the palace, where she lives in a shabby house. , I can't even eat!" Xia Zhihe secretly resented that no one had the nerve to dislike anyone!
As for the meaning of the so-called Sun family, in his opinion, Sun family has long been a handful of loess. Isn't it his own decision?
"I don't know where this shabby house came from? Since the princess is married to me, she naturally lives in the main house with me. Could it be that I also live in a shabby house?" Wu Zechen looked at Xia Zhihe coldly. , "Master Xia, do you look down on me or the royal family?"
Today's Prince An has changed from his taciturn and indifferent appearance in the past. He and Xia Zhihe are going back and forth without giving in to each other, as if they are in a stalemate.
Just when Xia Zhihe was about to continue to speak back and fight back, he suddenly received a cold look. He suddenly came back to his senses and almost forgot the most important thing!
Thinking of this, when he looked at Prince An again, Xia Zhihe's eyes had changed from a bit of uncertainty at the beginning to determination!
Prince An kept asking the topic around and around him, thinking that something must have happened to the eldest daughter! Otherwise, how could Prince An, who had always been taciturn, get into so much trouble with him?
Thinking like this, Xia Zhihe immediately ignored what Prince An said just now and pointed to the key point: "I will ask Prince An today, how is the princess doing now?!"
"Very good." Wu Zechen seemed to have returned to his original demeanor of cherishing words like gold. He simply said three words and said no more.
"Since it's so good, why don't you let me meet you?"
"I have just said that I am afraid that you will poison her again."
"Then if the princess is allowed to come to this palace and meet with me in public, Prince An won't have to worry, right? I can't possibly poison my own daughter in this palace in front of the emperor!" Xia Zhihe became more and more sure, Bu Bu pressed forward.
"The princess's lingering poison has just been cured and she still needs to rest. It is not advisable to leave the house and walk around." Wu Zechen remained unmoved and refused with a calm expression.
Xia Zhihe looked like he was gnashing his teeth in annoyance, but there was a hint of joy in his heart: "Then I will ask the emperor to send an imperial doctor to the palace to check the princess's pulse. Is this okay? The princess will do it in front of me. This father is vomiting blood and is in a coma, why can’t I even confirm the safety of my own daughter?”
"No, I won't allow it." Wu Zechen refused simply and rudely, not even bothering to say anything else on the scene this time.
"Prince An! Don't bully me too much! She is my direct daughter, why don't you allow me to see her?!"
"She is my king's princess."
"Why are you doing everything possible to prevent me from seeing her? Is the princess really fine?" Xia Zhihe suddenly looked at Wu Zechen with suspicion on his face.
"Nature is fine."
"Since everything is fine, why don't you allow it? The princess vomited blood and fell into a coma in front of so many people that day. After you took the princess away, there was no news about the princess. Could it be that something unexpected happened to the princess?"
Xia Zhihe gradually showed a look of horror as he spoke, suddenly turned around and knelt on the ground, crying to the emperor in tears, "I beg the emperor to make the decision for me! My eldest daughter must have been poisoned by Prince An!" Otherwise, why would Prince An prevent Wei Chen from seeing his daughter in every possible way?! Although poor Wei Chen's daughter was granted a marriage by the emperor, not only did she not live a good life after marrying into the palace, but now her life is in danger! "
Xia Zhihe cried with blood and tears, attracting the help of many ministers on the spot. They all accused Prince An of being cruel, bloodthirsty and ungrateful. He not only violated the emperor's imperial marriage, but also poisoned the royal wife, the second-ranked member of the imperial court. The direct daughter of a high official is simply unforgivable!
How can such a cruel and cruel person be worthy of being an official of the imperial court? How can one deserve to hold military power? How can such a person reassure the emperor and the people?
So after repeated criticisms, many ministers knelt down and begged the emperor to convict Prince An, and advised the emperor to take back the military power to ensure the stability of the Zhou Dynasty!
Being besieged by so many ministers one after another, Prince An Wu Zechen did not say any more words. He just stood quietly with slightly lowered eyes as if he did not hear the sounds around him at all, allowing these ministers to criticize him.
Seeing Prince An's reaction, more and more ministers joined in the condemnation and remonstrance, and all of them asked the emperor to convict Prince An.
Among these ministers, some were sent by certain forces to interfere, and some followed suit in order to please certain people. But no matter what the purpose of these people was, the emperor sitting at the top was very happy to see this. situation.
He hesitated for a moment, and when he saw that the ministers below who were denounced were getting more and more passionate, he frowned and looked at Prince An with a stern expression, and everyone could see the anger on his face.
"Prince An, look at the trouble you made. How can you still behave like a member of the royal family? What happened to the princess I gave you?"
"I have been guarding the border for seventeen years and have not allowed barbarians to occupy my city once. I think I have displayed the style of a royal member very well."
Wu Zechen said such words with an indifferent expression, which made the emperor so angry that he tightened his grip on the throne, but was unable to make any rebuttal, because...
Prince An Wu Zechen is well-deserved for his title as God of War! Even worse than Prince Lao An!
Prince An's current prestige is all based on winning battles and accumulating military exploits time and time again. It is precisely because of this that the military power of the entire Western Army is so firmly in his hands.
Soldiers respect the strong! And Prince An made all the soldiers admire and admire him!
The emperor did not expect that Prince An would say such words back to him. He was so angry at the moment that he had no choice but to avoid the matter and asked again: "Then what happened to Princess An?!"
"nothing."
"Since there is nothing to do, let her come to the palace to see me! This is the imperial decree!" The emperor meant what he said. If he didn't bring the person up, he would be resisting the decree.
The emperor knew that Prince An mentioned military exploits. Perhaps this matter today would not be able to completely seize the military power of the Western Army. After all, the life of a mere Princess An was not enough to compare with more than ten years of guarding the borders of the Zhou Dynasty. , but how could he accept such a good opportunity today? No matter what, you have to bite off a piece of meat!
"The emperor really wants her to come?" Wu Zechen suddenly asked.
"Yes! Dehai! Send someone to Prince An's Mansion to take the princess into the palace!" The emperor gave the order in a cold voice, and Dehai, the personal eunuch, immediately took the order and left the hall.
They thought it would take some effort, but what everyone didn't expect was that not long after, there was movement outside the hall.
"Princess An has an audience!"
