The prince couldn't help but be curious. He knew Du Ruhui's character well, and his relationship with Li Shimin was also very comparable.
So his status is higher than some royal descendants. What detours does he need to make?
After hearing this, Du Jiachen pursed his lips tightly, as if he didn't feel comfortable speaking.
But he knew that this was a test for him by the county king. The county king must have a grudge against Du Ruhui for impeaching him. If he refused to speak out, it would prove that he was unwilling to join the county king's service.
How could he give up this opportunity, and Du Ruhui's impeachment of the county king was almost no secret, so he just said it.
However, you still have to pretend, because after all, it is treasonous for the adopted son to argue about the rights and wrongs of the adopted father behind his back.
"Originally, as an adopted son, students cannot say anything, but it is indeed wrong for the adopted father to do this.
If the student tells the truth, can the prince forgive his adoptive father?
Students are willing to work as cows or horses for the prince!"
Du Jiachen said it sincerely and even raised his voice at the end.
After hearing his few words, the prince was so surprised that he even stopped holding his fan and clapped his hands again and again.
Awesome! As expected of Du Jiachen, he not only expressed his true feelings for his adoptive father, but also expressed his loyalty to him as the prince. As long as he didn't say "I don't want to hear it," then no matter what he said, it would be equivalent to acquiescence.
Receive Du Jiachen.
The prince's admiration was not hidden at all, and his tut-tuts never stopped.
Du Jiachen couldn't help but straighten his back when he saw the prince praising him so much. He knew that the prince must be very touched by his filial piety, and then he would appreciate his loyalty!
But the prince was a little confused, why should he forgive Du Ruhui?
Could it be that Du Ruhui's wrong path has something to do with him?
Muchuan and Fang Cheng naturally knew that Du Jiachen's words could not be truly believed by the county prince, and they could still tell whether the prince's eyes were sarcastic or truly appreciative.
"Your Majesty has been having troubles. Don't you want to hear what's going on?"
Muchuan saw that the prince's hands kept clapping, and he couldn't help but remind him.
"oh?
I didn’t want Mr. Du to have the reputation of betraying his master, so I didn’t listen.”
The prince suddenly came to his senses, but what he said made Du Jiachen almost vomit blood.
"Your Majesty, students, students don't care about reputation, students just want"
Du Jiachen was very anxious. This was completely different from what he thought!
Muchuan resisted the urge to laugh and stopped Du Jiachen, who was so excited that he almost stood up.
"Don't worry, Mr. Du. The prince won't listen. I wonder if I am lucky enough to listen?"
Muchuan said with a smile.
Du Jiachen pursed his lips. Isn't it the same? He couldn't whisper in Master Mu's ear and not let the prince listen, right?
It was really difficult to change the prince's attitude towards him.
Forget it, at least Lord Mu gave him a step. As expected, it was difficult for people in the royal family to speak. Only officials like his adoptive father were easy to speak.
"It's like this. My adoptive father was deceived by others and listened to the slander. He actually prevented the prince from going to court. This made the student very ashamed. Everyone knows what kind of character the prince is, but my adoptive father actually..."
Muchuan smiled on his face and complained crazily in his heart. Was he trying to plead for his adoptive father?
This last half sentence clearly condemns the adoptive father!
The prince also raised his eyebrows, knowing that Du Ruhui would not do anything particularly sorry for him.
Sure enough, all that can be said is this nonsense.
The prince was indeed very angry about this matter. He felt that his relationship with Li Shimin had been insulted.
But these old men also reminded him that he should not be too dazzling in the court, otherwise he would not even know how he died.
Du Ruhui was just doing business with him, so why would he have a life-and-death feud with Du Ruhui over this matter?
"Yes, it is true that there is such a foster father. I wonder what Mr. Du plans to do?"
The prince raised his eyebrows and glanced at Muchuan, Master Mu, please learn and use this trick!
Without telling the complete story, no one knows whether "such a foster father" is a compliment or a derogation.
Du Jiachen's subsequent words became much smoother after hearing Muchuan's words. He once again thanked Muchuan in his heart.
"The students want to kill their relatives for justice!"
Du Jiachen said with an emphasis.
The prince's jaw almost dropped. Muchuan's hand holding the tea trembled, and Fang Cheng even rubbed his ears. He felt that he was hallucinating.
"You want to kill your adoptive father?"
Muchuan tried to keep his tone as calm as possible.
Just for this matter, in order to seek refuge with the county king, he would even kill his foster father?
Although he knows little about Du Ruhui, who doesn't know that Du Ruhui attaches great importance to Du Jiachen, his adopted son, and those who can take care of him will definitely take care of him, even more carefully than his own son.
Isn't this Du Jiachen too cruel?
Du Jiachen smiled after hearing Muchuan's words. This smile was that of a gentle and gentle young man.
"Master Mu, that's not what the student means. What the student means is that the student will always keep an eye on the adoptive father's actions. If the adoptive father does something to disgrace the prince again, I will inform the prince in advance so that the prince can take precautions."
Muchuan immediately laughed and said, considering Du Jiachen, how could he take the normal path of having a frank conversation between his adopted son and his adopted father.
If the love between father and son is truly deep, shouldn't the adoptive father be allowed to stop?
Wouldn't this help protect the adoptive father better?
Unfortunately, in Du Jiachen's case, not only would he not persuade his adoptive father not to be an enemy of the county king, but he would also encourage his adoptive father to do more things to be an enemy of the county king, so that he would have more meaning as an intelligence agent.
.
It turned out that he wanted to stay with his adoptive father and be a good son, and enjoy the image of a noble son that his adoptive father could give him.
He also wanted to board the prince's ship so that the prince would look at him differently.
He has a good abacus and his calculations are crackling.
"Brother Du, don't you have a good relationship with your adoptive father?
Why don't you just tell him that the prince already knows, and that as long as he doesn't do anything to disgrace the prince again, the prince won't blame him?
Wouldn’t this be better for Mr. Du?”
Fang Cheng said doubtfully, he was really doubtful.
Fang grew up in a merchant's family and knew very little about the darkness of officialdom and the malice of human nature, so it was difficult for Fang Cheng to understand things that Muchuan and the prince could immediately figure out.
In Fang Cheng's eyes, Du Jiachen was able to say this because he must have taken advantage of his relationship with his adoptive father. If he said that he had no feelings, the prince would not accept the emotional card. After all, having no feelings meant that Du Jiachen was a white-eyed wolf and would not say anything.
Du Ruhui is bad.
So even if he is fictional, he has to be fictional, but since he is very emotional, shouldn't he do something that is truly beneficial to his adoptive father?
Otherwise, how can I convince the prince to believe him?
Unfortunately, what Fang Cheng doesn't know is that some people are using emotions as a guise to do emotionless things.
Du Jiachen's face turned pale after hearing Fang Cheng's words. Apparently he didn't expect that someone would be so stupid that he couldn't hear the true meaning of his words.
"Brother Fang, I, I don't know how to deal with my adoptive father and he refuses to listen to me, so I made this move."
Du Jiachen stumbled and stumbled before he thought of a word that could barely pass the test.
Fang Cheng frowned and said nothing. He always felt that Du Jiachen was lying.
