Yuan Hao's expression changed, and he knelt on the ground and said: "Father, I have no son. I am loyal to my father and to Beichen, and the world can learn from it!"
Emperor Beichen snorted and said, "Then tell me, what is the relationship between that man named Xiao Ce and you? How dare he tell you such an important secret?"
Yuan Hao said: "Er Chen and Xiao Ce just met by chance. When he saw that Er Chen treated each other with sincerity, he revealed his true identity.
When Erchen learned that the young lady from the Duke's Mansion was the princess of Nanyue, he was worried that this was Nanyue's conspiracy, so he went around with Xiao Ce to get more information from him. This is how the two letters were obtained.
Father, the person who was disloyal to Beichen was the emperor's brother. He kept saying that he was using Xiao Jialan, but it was just a temporary measure.
I don’t believe that he and Xiao Jialan were just having fun, unless he kills Xiao Jialan with his own hands and proves his innocence!"
Emperor Beichen's eyebrows moved. He looked at Yuan Chen and said, "Prince, are you willing to prove your innocence?"
Yuan Chen was shocked, his father was forcing him to attack Jialan!
He said: "Father, I think it is more valuable to save Xiao Jialan's life than to kill her.
Xiao Chongjun, the new emperor of Nanyue, only has one sister, Xiao Jialan, and he regards her as a treasure. Keeping her can threaten Xiao Chongjun. If he is killed, Beichen and Nanyue will never have peace again. Please think twice."
Yuan Hao said: "Father, these are the excuses of the emperor brother. He has a deep love for Xiao Jialan. The so-called use is just a cover, and he just wants to save Xiao Jialan's life."
Emperor Beichen frowned, seeming a little confused.
Xiao Jialan said: "You can't even think of using me to blackmail my imperial brother. Even if I die, I won't let you get what you want."
With that said, she turned around and was about to hit the dragon column on the main hall.
Fortunately, Yuan Chen stopped her. He held her arm tightly, with anger in his eyes: "It's not that easy to die!"
Seeing this, Emperor Beichen softened his tone: "That's all, let's keep him here."
Yuan Hao frowned and said: "Father, it's okay to keep the person here, but Xiao Jialan, as a craftsman of Nanyue, confuses the Beichen Crown Prince, so we can't just let it go. It's better to send the person to the military camp to reward the soldiers and encourage them."
Morale, what do you think, Father?"
Emperor Beichen thought for a while, nodded and said, "Let's do it."
Yuan Hao was overjoyed, he didn't believe Yuan Chen could still do it!
Sure enough, when Yuan Chen heard that Xiao Jialan was going to be sent to the military camp to reward the soldiers, he couldn't help but angrily yelled: "Who dares to touch her!"
Yuan Chen drew out the soft sword on his body and protected Xiao Jialan behind him. He faced the person on the throne and said, "Father, why can't you let her go?"
Emperor Beichen slammed the table and scolded: "Yuan Chen, do you want to rebel? For a Nanyue woman, you pointed your sword at me. You let me down so much!"
With that said, he gave an order: "Come here and capture this traitor for me!"
Yuan Chen angrily scolded: "Let's see who dares to move!"
He looked at the person on the dragon throne with a serious expression and said: "Father, is your surname really so important in this world?
All you care about is the inheritance of your ancestors, and you have never thought about the life and death of the people.
You are sitting in this position, enjoying the honor and dignity. It is clear that your words can prevent lives from being destroyed, but you are in vain to care about their life and death.
You know Yuan Hao's ambitions, but you are still bewitched by him. If you don't believe in your son, you will regret it."
Emperor Beichen was furious. He said: "You are rebelling. You are really rebelling. Why are you still standing there? Why don't you capture him quickly?"
As soon as the guards rushed forward, Yuan Chen resisted with the sword in his hand.
Even though he was good at martial arts, he quickly fell behind because he had to protect Xiao Jialan with his hands and feet.
