Gu Ruojiao on the other hand used a cruel trick to make the palace people understand that no one could offend this palace maid next to Xiao Chengyu, including the eighth princess.
The eighth princess had a nightmare that night after she returned, and then she fell seriously ill. After the illness, she felt hazy and screamed crazily when she saw something red.
The old emperor also invited many masters for this purpose.
But both the master and the imperial doctor said that the eighth princess acted like this because she was frightened.
As for why they were frightened, everyone knew who was responsible.
But no one dared to say it clearly.
But if you don’t talk about the old emperor, don’t you know?
"Yu'er, you know about your Eighth Emperor sister, right?"
Xiao Chengyu lowered his eyebrows.
Today the old emperor was rarely serious, and he was not accompanied by his concubine.
But judging from his exhausted face, there must have been a lot of trouble last night.
There was a hint of contempt in Xiao Chengyu's eyes.
Seeing that he didn't speak, the old emperor didn't take it seriously. He just said: "You are the prince and will be the emperor in the future. What you want is just a matter of words. There are some things that you must know how to let go of and don't let unnecessary things hold you back."
Stay with you."
The meaningless thing in the old emperor's mouth was naturally Gu Ruojiao.
Xiao Chengyu remained silent, holding the tea cup and rubbing his fingers on the rim of the cup.
He was obviously a half-grown child, and he didn't even say a word, but he gave people an inexplicable sense of oppression.
Even the old emperor, who had been in power for a long time, couldn't help but feel a sense of being suppressed.
He frowned slightly.
This is a sign of the superior's displeasure.
But Xiao Chengyu never expressed any expression.
The old emperor couldn't help but emphasize his tone: "As the prince, I don't want you to focus too much on having fun."
He mistakenly thought that Xiao Chengyu only had children's feelings for Gu Ruojiao.
The old emperor said: "As for the palace maid, she beat the eighth princess, which caused the eighth princess to suffer from hysteria. She just handed her over to Si Zhengsi to beat her to death with a stick."
Hearing this, Xiao Chengyu smiled.
It was clearly a warm laughter, but it made people feel a hint of coldness.
The palace servants waiting nearby could not help but shudder.
"Father, are you caring about your son?" He raised his eyebrows slightly.
The window sill was half open, but most of his body was hidden in the darkness, his head was slightly lowered, and he looked docile and kind-hearted.
The old emperor was old after all, and the indifference in his laughter could not be detected at all.
The old emperor: "I am also doing it for your own good. If I torture and kill a palace maid because of a little palace maid, it will never be good for you if word spreads about it."
He added: "Besides, the majesty of the Heavenly Family cannot be violated. What the little palace maid did, even being quartered by five horses is not enough to compensate for the crime she committed."
"Really?" Xiao Chengyu chuckled indifferently.
The old emperor just thought he was having a child's temper: "You are still young. When you reach a certain height, you will understand that as long as you want, everything on this loess can be yours, including people."
"But Erchen only wants her now, only her."
The old emperor frowned in displeasure upon hearing this.
He had said both good and bad things, but he still didn't know how to adapt and hand over the palace maid!
The old emperor said displeasedly: "Yu'er, don't be confused..."
But I heard Xiao Chengyu say: "What my father said is that the majesty of the Heavenly Family cannot be violated. If I can't get what I want and can't protect the people I want to protect, how can I be able to take the position of my father in the future.
"
The old emperor knew that he was speaking forcefully: "Nonsense! That little palace maid hit the princess! How could she let it go so easily? If the news spread, what majesty would the Tian family have? Have her killed now!"
