famous eldest daughter

Chapter 403 Sequential
The discussions that Xiao Yu just made were just casual remarks. His purpose was the three-court trial mentioned later.

As long as the emperor is willing to nod and agree to these three trials, no matter what the outcome is, Xiao Duo will never be able to be crowned emperor in this life.

A prince who makes the emperor lose face has long lost his status in the heart of the emperor. Without status, any efforts he makes will be in vain.

But at this time, Xiao Duo's "royal face" about using his tricks blocked the road to the interrogation of the three halls. His mind was racing, and Gu Yuqing was confused. Xiao Yu should have expected such a result. Why? Would do such a hasty thing.

He couldn't help but raise his eyes and look towards Xiao Yu, only to see Xiao Yu looking down at Xiao Duo with a murderous sneer in his eyes. That smile contained the certainty that he was bound to win.

Gu Yuqing's heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly realized Xiao Yu's true purpose.

The three-court trial... knowing that Xiao Duo was guilty, he deliberately threw out this three-court trial. It seemed that he wanted to cut off all Xiao Duo's opportunities, but in fact... his real purpose was to take advantage of Xiao Duo's fear and want to Let him refuse it himself.

Sure enough, as soon as Xiao Duo finished speaking, Xiao Yu sneered, "Second Emperor Brother confessed in such a hurry, could he be feeling guilty?"

Xiao Duo's face was full of pain and sorrow, "I don't know whether you were instigated by others or what, but you were able to say such words to instigate my father. It is really a waste of my father's love and care for you. The three courts will interrogate you, not to mention what it does to me. , if this matter is brought to light, how will your father’s face be saved!”

"Father's face?" Xiao Yu sneered, "The second emperor brother is thinking of father's face at this moment. Then when you sent the Tianque disciples from the Jianghu gang to intercept and kill Gu Yuqing and I who had narrowly escaped from the flash flood, did you ever think about it? Exceed my father’s face!”

Xiao Yu's voice was full of clank and aggressiveness, completely different from his usual bohemian attitude.

Xiao Yi's lowered eyes couldn't help but move slightly.

Suddenly hearing Xiao Yu's words, the Emperor's heart was suddenly shaken, and his poisonous gaze was like a knife, shot at Xiao Duo.

Xiao Duo was horrified. He immediately held a breath in his heart and couldn't lift it up. He gritted his teeth and forced himself to calm down. The corners of his eyes couldn't help but tremble. "You're talking nonsense. What's Tianque? What's a Jianghu gang? You're talking nonsense! If you want to be punished, No need to worry!"

Try your best to look like a person who is innocent.

It's just that Xiao Duo never expected that Xiao Yu would mention Tianque himself, but he couldn't suppress the unguarded panic in his heart.

"Am I talking nonsense?" Xiao Yu leaned back slightly, his face as cold as ice, "If I'm talking nonsense, it's because Lord Gu is talking nonsense. I got all my words from Lord Gu. .”

"Gu Yuqing and I disappeared that day. Mr. Gu was impatient and led his people to search around. If it weren't for the sudden appearance of countless Tianque disciples on Longyang Mountain, they would not have attracted Mr. Gu's attention. If not, I'm afraid that Gu Yuqing and I have long since died in the wilderness."

"In this way, Gu Yuqing and I survived the catastrophe thanks to the large number of Tianque disciples!" Xiao Yu laughed at himself, "If their people hadn't been swarming all over Longyang Mountain, Lord Gu would not have been able to survive. Just noticed the clues.”

Xiao Yu spoke up and down, while Xiao Duo's facial muscles trembled with his words.

"There is no basis and no evidence. What a Lord Gu said, are you going to impose this trumped-up charge on me?" Xiao Duo tensed the last chord in his heart and said: "Although you are favored by my father, , but I am also Father’s biological son after all, do you think that because of your few words, Father will punish me for offending me!”

Xiao Yu shook his head, "Let's leave it aside as to whether I favor or not. However, it is true that I am my father's biological son. As for whether you are or not, that is unknown."

"Xiao Yu!" Xiao Duo said angrily, gritting his teeth, "Stop talking nonsense."

However, the corners of Xiao Yu's mouth raised slightly, showing a smile, "I can remember the words that he said in front of all our brothers in prison when King Duan was defeated that day." As he spoke, Xiao Yu Yu raised his eyes slightly and looked towards Xiao Yi, "I remember it clearly. I think the Third Emperor Brother has not forgotten it either."

The look in Xiao Yi's eyes trembled, and he raised his eyes in a flash, but everything was calm, and he just said: "I remember correctly, Prince Duan must have said that in front of everyone, one of our brothers, he was the civet cat for the prince, the method is similar to the way he used to change the pillars of Gu Hou My legitimate son."

As his own words sounded, Xiao Yi had a strong premonition that Xiao Yu seemed to know of He Wenyue's existence, and said these things intentionally, but it was just foreshadowing why Wenyue's appearance.

Although he was confused, this situation was not harmful to him, so he naturally had to cooperate.

The things Xiao Yi thought about flashed through Gu Yuqing's mind.

If Xiao Yu hadn't already known about He Wenyue, then there must be someone beside Xiao Yu who had been planted by Xiao Yu.

Otherwise... It has only been a few hours since I handed the news to Xiao Yi. In order to ensure that the matter is foolproof, according to Xiao Yi's temperament, naturally he will not leak the matter at all, but how could Xiao Yu know about it? .

Looking at Xiao Yu again, Gu Yuqing felt more and more unfathomable about him.

Just because of today's incident, Xiao Yi may have noticed his usual uneducated attitude, and his situation in the future will only become more dangerous.

Xiao Yi and Xiao Yu's words one after another aroused the ever restless suspicion in the emperor's heart to violently attack him again.

What King Duan said in prison that day, although he kept telling himself afterwards, was just a deliberate instigation by King Duan. He kept telling himself that he must not be fooled by him, causing father and son to turn against each other, and leading to regrets. However, the doubts in my heart are like thick fog, lingering.

Now, this matter was brought up by both Xiao Yi and Xiao Yu, and their tone was clearly directed at Xiao Duo.

If it is said that Xiao Yi did it deliberately, the emperor would still believe it, but Xiao Yu... Thinking of his usual rascal appearance, the appearance of not seeking to make progress, the emperor could not imagine what kind of tricks Xiao Yu was using.

The atmosphere in the Imperial Study Room suddenly condensed as this matter was mentioned.

Xiao Duo was about to speak in defense when the heavy wooden door was pushed open with a creak again. The white-faced little chamberlain leaned in again, took a careful look at the situation in the room, and said: "Your Majesty, His Highness the Ninth Prince asked to see you. He said yes. I have something important to report."

Since the last incident at Chenxiang Pavilion, the emperor's attitude towards the ninth prince Xiao Ke, who had been neglected by him for many years, has slightly improved. Hearing this, he only frowned slightly, but did not directly reject him like before.

"Let him in!"
