"Okay, let's go back together." Seeing what he said, Qin Su stopped insisting.
"good."
Several people sat back on Wang Qinggai's car and walked towards Qindu together.
In the car, Qin Mian's face was filled with frost and his heart was full of anger.
Originally, Qin Cheng was quite happy to become a vassal, but he didn't expect that an oral decree from his father was issued yesterday, asking him to write the ancestral system in the East Palace for a day.
I kept writing until late at night, and then I finished it hastily. In the morning, I braved the cold wind and endured the sleepiness to see Qin Cheng off. Unexpectedly, there was another sarcastic comment.
At this moment, he hated Qin Su and Qin Cheng very much.
"Hmph, one day I will make you pay..."
"boom."
"law."
"Bold, don't you have eyes?"
A violent shaking caused Qin Mian to hit the edge of the car.
"What's going on?" Qin Mian said angrily, holding his forehead.
"Your Majesty, a commoner fell while carrying swill and disturbed the war horse."
"Asshole."
Qin Mian pushed open the car door, and a pungent smell rushed straight into his nose.
"vomit."
He felt nauseated, retched subconsciously, covered his nose and looked angrily.
A middle-aged man in rags knelt on the ground and looked at them in horror.
The two barrels of green swill next to them had all been spilled on the road, exuding a strong stench.
"My lord, please forgive me. I didn't do this on purpose."
"Untouchable, take him down and punish him."
Qin Mian glanced at him with disgust and then returned to the car.
"Go back to the palace."
"promise."
"Sir, please spare my life!"
"Grass people don't dare to do it anymore."
"Ahh..."
A miserable scream of pain spread far away.
And this scene happened to be seen by Qin Su behind him.
In the early morning, Qin Heng lay on the bed, feeling cold all over, dizzy, and his nose was completely blocked.
After coming back yesterday, I gradually felt unwell, as if I had contracted a cold.
Tap tap tap
Zhang Long walked in with long strides.
"Meet the Eighth Prince."
Qin Heng opened his hazy eyes and asked softly: "How is it?"
"As expected by the Eighth Prince, the Second Prince sent someone to kill the man last night."
"Have everything been taken care of? They won't be found on us, right?"
Qin Heng endured his headache and asked worriedly.
Zhang Long shook his head: "No, that person is just a gambler. He doesn't know who we are, and I told him to fall down on purpose. At most, he will get a beating, and nothing will happen."
"Okay, have you got the money you gave him back?"
"Get it back."
"Okay, don't worry about the rest. Wait until the news passes and find a way to send some money to his mother. Be careful not to give too much or expose it."
"promise."
"Go down and pay attention to the situation in the court." Qin Heng closed his eyes and waved his hand.
"Eighth Prince, do you want to invite the imperial doctor? Are you like this?"
Zhang Long couldn't help but ask softly when he saw the uncomfortable expression on his face.
"No, wait until the court is over before asking for the imperial doctor." Qin Heng shook his head.
"promise."
Zhang Long responded respectfully, then turned and walked out.
At the same time, all the ministers in Emperor Qin's palace were waiting for Emperor Qin's arrival.
Some people had raised corners of their mouths, some had sad faces, some had calm faces, and some were gloating.
But Prince Qin Mian was sweating in this cold morning.
He stood uneasily and looked at Qin Su next to him with a smile on his face.
"The Emperor has arrived."
A trumpet sounded.
All the ministers immediately put away their expressions and looked towards the rear of the palace with respectful expressions.
Tap tap tap
The sound of footsteps sounded, and Emperor Qin walked out calmly.
"I will see you, Your Majesty."
Emperor Qin walked to the dragon chair, turned around and sat down, and said solemnly: "Everyone loves you."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
All the ministers stood up and bowed their heads.
"All ministers report."
Zhao Gan shouted an announcement.
As soon as he finished speaking, Taiwei Wu Jian came out from behind the second prince on the right, raised his hands and said, "Your Majesty, yesterday the prince ordered his guards to commit murder in the street, resulting in tragic deaths. Now the news has spread throughout the entire Qin capital."
coming.
The ministers' hearts trembled and they all secretly said.
Qin Mian stiffened, lowered his head, held his breath, and did not dare to look at Emperor Qin.
Emperor Qin narrowed his eyes and did not blame Wu Jian for overstepping his duties. He just looked at Liu Ji and asked, "Does Liu Aiqing know about this?"
Liu Ji glanced at Wu Jian and walked out: "Go back to your majesty, I know this."
"His Royal Highness sent the fourth prince to leave the capital yesterday. When he returned, a commoner disturbed the prince. Therefore, the prince ordered the guards to punish him. Unexpectedly, the attack was too harsh, causing the civilian to be seriously injured and died late at night."
Emperor Qin glanced at Qin Mian, looked at Zheng Yuan, and spoke again: "Has Zheng Aiqing sent someone to investigate?"
Zheng Yuan twitched the corner of his mouth, took a deep breath, and walked out.
"Back to Your Majesty, I have sent someone to investigate. Then... the civilian did die of external injuries."
After saying that, he quickly lowered his head, feeling a little helpless.
He couldn't hide this kind of thing even if he wanted to. It had already spread in the city, so he could only tell the truth.
"Prince, what do you want to say?"
Qin Mian's body trembled and he quickly knelt on the ground: "Back to my father, I really didn't know that the guard was so aggressive."
"The commoner used swill to disturb the emperor yesterday. This was against the dignity of the royal family, so I ordered the guards to punish him. Who knew..."
As soon as these words came out, the prince's party ministers secretly applauded in their hearts.
These words completely pushed me away. If I did this, it would be considered lax at best.
Emperor Qin also nodded secretly, looked at the other ministers, and asked: "My beloved ministers, what do you think?"
As soon as Emperor Qin finished speaking, Feng Changma Ji came out and said: "Your Majesty, the royal family is inviolable. The prince should have done his job in upholding the majesty of the royal family. It is natural for him to order the guards to punish him. However, the guards' excessive orders led to the death of Emperor Qin. The offender will die, which can be said to be a lack of strict control."
"I believe that the crown prince should balance his merits and demerits."
When the ministers heard this, their mouths suddenly twitched.
As expected of Minister Jiuqing, what he said was accurate. If the public opinion hadn't been too big and he had been thicker-skinned, the prince would still have merit.
Wu Jian glanced at him coldly at this time.
"Your Majesty, I think what Lord Ma said is wrong."
"Since the founding of the Qin Dynasty, the country has been governed by royal principles. The prince is the crown prince of the country. He should be both benevolent and virtuous, rather than acting with power. As far as I know, the prince did not clear the way in advance, so the common people did not intend to infringe on the royal family. majesty."
"But the prince did not manage things with virtue and directly ordered his guards to commit murders in the street. On the contrary, it undermined the dignity of the royal family, the prestige of the Qin Dynasty, and the prince's virtue."
"And as the prince is not strict with his subordinates, let me ask you, if such trivial matters are like this, what will happen to the major affairs of the country in the future?"
"I sincerely ask your Majesty to consider this carefully."
After the Dianke Kong Yu finished speaking, he knelt down on the ground and forced him to do so politely.
The ministers next to them had fallen into a state of sluggishness.
Even Emperor Qin's eyes jumped when he heard it, especially the last sentence of careful consideration.
What is he thinking about?
Change the prince?
Or a heavy penalty?
At this moment, Wu Jian and Qin Su wanted to hold Kong Yu in their arms and kiss him.
