Chapter 65 The emperor is very angry

Royal Palace.

Royal study.

This is Wang Xue's second time here.

When she first came here, she was only six or seven years old.

At that time, she was still a child who sat aside and watched her father play chess with the emperor.

Now that she came here again, it was because of herself.

Thinking about it is also embarrassing.

"Be quiet later, don't talk when you are not asked to talk."

This is what the old prince told her before they came in.

Wang Xue smiled, then nodded in agreement.

The father and daughter came to the imperial study room. Besides the eunuch, there was also a middle-aged man in a golden dragon robe and a young man in a python robe in the room.

The former just stood there, giving people a feeling of calmness and prestige.

Compared with the former, the latter is much inferior.

Aside from being short and short, his face also gave people a very ordinary feeling, like an ordinary character who would disappear if thrown into the crowd.

The former, of course, is Wang Chengmin, the current emperor of Daliang Kingdom.

The latter is the fifth prince Wang Xuanqi whom Wang Xue has always disliked.

"The old minister has seen the emperor."

"The courtier has met the emperor."

"Get up." The emperor turned around at this moment, revealing a Chinese character face with majestic attributes.

Then the emperor's eyes fell on Wang Xue who was behind the old prince, and said in a flat tone: "It's been seven or eight years since I saw you, you girl is now slim and beautiful, and you look even more beautiful."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment." Wang Xue said hastily.

The emperor waved his hand, and then walked up and down the room, and said as he walked: "I heard before that the daughter of Cheng Junwang is arrogant and domineering, and she doesn't care about the consequences, but now it seems that it is not true. .”

As he said that, he came to the old prince, reached out and patted the old prince's shoulder, "Wanli, your daughter is not simple, it is not easy to have the world in mind at such an age."

The old prince hastily bowed and said: "Your Majesty, you are flattering me. The little girl is ignorant and has done some things that shouldn't be done. Don't blame me."

The emperor chuckled, "Blame? Why should I blame your daughter? You must know that the matter of the slums has always been on my mind, and it has long been a heart problem. Now that the girl Xiaoxue has helped me get rid of this heart problem, It's too late for me to be happy, so why blame me?"

The old prince nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, what the emperor said is true, but there is indeed something wrong with what the little girl did, so..."

"Oh? Is there? Why don't I think so? Why don't you tell me what's wrong?"

The old prince's breathing was stagnant, and just as he was about to speak, Wang Xue immediately bowed his head and cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, this matter is indeed lacking in what I have done, but my intention is good, and I just want to help those poor people live a better life." Days later, I never thought that this was originally the job of the fifth prince. If the courtier had known earlier that this matter was related to the fifth prince, she would have informed the fifth prince before doing it. But now that the courtier has done something good, but people I feel like I stole the achievements of the fifth prince for nothing, which is really wrong, but the so-called ignorant is not to blame, so I ask the emperor to forgive my daughter's mistake."

The emperor didn't expect Wang Xue to say such a thing, and he was taken aback for a moment.

The old prince turned his head sideways and kept winking at Wang Xue, but Wang Xue didn't seem to notice, and finished what he wanted to say in one breath.

"Hmph! You also know that you have robbed me of the prince's work, but how do I feel that you have not felt that you have done anything wrong? Or, you know that it is my errand and you did it on purpose? Wang Xue, what are your intentions?" The fifth prince Wang Xuanqi's strange voice sounded, and his words were full of ridicule and dissatisfaction.

Wang Xue raised her head slowly, looked at the Fifth Prince, and said in surprise: "So you are here, Fifth Prince, and I didn't notice you before. You must have hidden yourself too well."

"What did you say?"

The fifth prince stared, but before he could continue, Wang Xue continued: "Fifth prince, I think you have misunderstood. Although you are in charge of the slums, it is really because of poverty, starvation, and freezing all year round. There are often dead people, and it doesn't look like someone is watching them!"

"And if someone is really in charge, there probably won't be many deaths there, don't you think so?"

The fifth prince's face turned pale, and he hurriedly shouted: "What nonsense are you talking about! Why didn't the prince care about it! It's obvious that you interfered without authorization, otherwise... otherwise, the prince would have sent someone to renovate the place!"

"Oh? Is that really the case?" Wang Xue was puzzled and said, "But if I remember correctly, it has been several years since the emperor entrusted you to deal with it. Dare I ask what kind of preparation the fifth prince has made? How many years are needed?"

After a pause, Wang Xue continued: "Even if you really have plans, why have you ignored those people all these years?"

"You are simply talking nonsense! This prince does not have one."

"enough!"

Before the fifth prince could finish speaking, the emperor interrupted him.

For a while, the room became quiet, and Wang Xue also lowered her head again and said nothing more.

The emperor glanced at the fifth prince coldly, and snorted coldly: "It's a shame that I trust you so much, but look at what you have done these years? How much do you have for the money I took from the treasury?" Are the points spent on those common people? If I don’t ask, do you think I’m blind or dumb?”

The fifth prince's face was pale, his knees softened, and he simply knelt on the ground, "Father, are there any ministers?"

"Nothing? Is there nothing to do?" The emperor's face became even more ugly.

He walked straight up to the fifth prince, threw a stack of memorials on the table beside him to his head, and said angrily: "You really think I don't know what you have done in the past few years? All these memorials are It was you! It was I who suppressed it and didn't let the matter develop!"

"Now that Xiaoxue has helped you do something you didn't do, why don't you thank him well, and why are you still saying some stupid things here! I'm going to be mad at you!" Speaking of anger, the emperor raised his foot and slammed Kick the fifth prince to the ground.

The fifth prince was so frightened that his face was as pale as paper, but he didn't dare to neglect him in the slightest. He hurriedly knelt down again, his head almost dropped to the ground.

"Your majesty, please calm down. Although the fifth prince is at fault for this matter, he cannot be entirely blamed. Maybe the fifth prince really has a plan, but it is really wrong for the daughter of the old minister to make a sudden move. Therefore, the emperor, why not?" Please don't blame the fifth prince too much." The old prince hurriedly stood up to smooth things over.

Wang Xue curled her lips, but said nothing.

Seeing that the old prince gave the steps, the emperor followed the trend.

He snorted, "Things without brains, I think I'm making some small moves behind my back, so I don't know, I'm not too old to see anything! Although this incident is over, the mistakes you made are not worth it. Forgive easily, come on!"
