Chapter 196: Protecting the Fourth Prince with a Gold Medal
"Brother Four Emperors, I didn't expect you to care about my mother-in-law."
"Haha, she is thinking about your brother, don't be wrong."
After Dongfang Yao finished speaking, he glanced at the emperor who was already livid. Twenty-two years ago, the sixth prince's concubine was being favored. Not only did she frame her concubine with tricks, but she also colluded with several concubines to talk about their dreams.
I saw myself killing the emperor with a sword.
He actually believed such lame words, and angrily sent himself to a temple on the mountain, saying that he wanted to get rid of his innate hostility...
"Naughty son, if I don't punish you today, I'm afraid the whole court will not accept it. Someone, drag me out and beat you..."
Dongfang Tianqi's words interrupted his memories. He looked at the angry and trembling man above, and the corners of his mouth curled up.
"Father, you should grant your son a death, so that we can all feel at ease."
"you……"
Dongfang Tianqi stood up awkwardly and pointed at him, his face turned pale.
"Father, since my fourth brother wants to die, then you will grant him his wish." Dongfang Zhe was the first to kneel down.
"Your Majesty, what the second prince said is right. The fourth prince has deceived the emperor and has no intention of repenting. Just now, he even made wild remarks in the court, insulting you and the Jade Concubine. His crime is punishable by death."
After Prince Fu said a lot of words, he also knelt on the ground.
"Father, please restore the innocence of my son, my mother-in-law," the sixth prince also knelt down.
"Your Majesty, please issue an edict..." All the ministers in the hall knelt down.
Dongfang Tianqi looked at the man standing upright in the court hall, the expression on his face not changing at all, and a trace of pain flashed in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, please issue an edict..."
The sound rang again, and at this time a eunuch hurriedly walked in:
"Your Majesty, the young master of the Shentu family, Shentu Shao, is asking for an audience."
Dongfang Tianqi's expression softened for a moment, and then he said: "Xuan."
"The emperor has a decree to declare that Tu Shao will be the king's king."
Announcements sounded one after another, and Shen Tushao quickly appeared in the court. He glanced around and his face became solemn.
"The common people Shentu Shao bows to the emperor, long live the emperor."
"Plain body."
"Your Majesty, the common people have something to report to the Emperor." Shen Tushao did not stand up, but knelt on the ground with one knee.
"explain."
Seeing that Dongfang Tianqi kept glancing at Dongfang Yao, Dongfang Tianqi's expression softened a little.
Shen Tushao immediately took out the gold medal from his arms:
"Your Majesty, this is the gold medal given by the late emperor. The common people are willing to use the gold medal to protect the fourth prince. He has not deceived the emperor, nor has he the slightest intention of rebellion..."
"Master Shentu, my fourth brother has deceived the emperor. He once vowed to be an idle king and not care about anything, but he quietly built the Orchid House to get information from the court officials."
Shen Tushao glanced at Dongfang Zhe and interrupted him lukewarmly:
"Second Prince, the common people haven't finished speaking, why do you have to interrupt so hastily? Moreover, even if you want to question me, it will be the Emperor's question. When will it be your turn?"
Dongfang Zhe felt the cold gaze on him and immediately knelt down to apologize.
The corners of Shen Tushao's lips curled up in a cold arc, and then he said:
"Your Majesty, Lanhuafang was originally the property of my Shentu family and has nothing to do with the fourth prince. He had a reason to lie to the second prince last night."
The solemnity on Dongfang Tianqi's face disappeared and he asked in a deep voice:
