Chapter 16 The Crown Prince Bravely Protects Qin Yu and Surprises Emperor Wei
Listen to Xiao Nan's words.
Qin Yu couldn't help but feel his innocence.
yes!
How could a prince who has lived in a deep palace for a long time and never left the palace even once a year know where he came from so many reasons.
Qin Yu thought for a while and said calmly: "There are many reasons such as exorbitant taxes, low food production, serious land annexation, etc. Let's just say that the people are living a hellish ordinary life."
Xiao Nan was shocked when he heard this and asked doubtfully: "Is ordinary life like hell as serious as you said!?"
Qin Yu said softly: "If His Highness hadn't seen it with his own eyes today, would you believe that there would be so many victims in Jinling City?"
"This..." Xiao Nan was speechless and was speechless for a moment.
Qin Yu turned to look at Xiao Nan and asked, "Do you want to be a good prince?"
Xiao Nan's eyes were solemn and he said without hesitation: "I didn't want to do it before, but I do now."
Qin Yu nodded slightly, "Then from now on, don't just listen to what Wei is like from other people's mouths, you have to see it yourself with your own eyes."
Xiao Nan listened thoughtfully and said thoughtfully: "Then what you mean is that seeing is believing and hearing is false?"
"Don't you understand this quite well?"
Qin Yu glanced at Xiao Nan suspiciously.
"Ha ha......"
Xiao Nan laughed happily, "Old Qin, they all say that I am stupid, but in fact I am not stupid at all!"
As he said that, he was a little worried and asked: "By the way, Lao Qin, what shall we say to my father later?"
Qin Yu said lightly: "Just tell His Majesty the truth about everything you saw and thought today."
Xiao Nan looked at Qin Yu doubtfully, "Is this possible?"
Qin Yu nodded and said, "It should be okay."
Xiao Nan pondered, recalling what happened today.
But no matter what, he would never implicate Qin Yu.
In fact, Qin Yu could tell Xiao Nan a lot more, but he was afraid that Xiao Nan wouldn't be able to digest it.
This guy's thinking is indeed a bit simple.
...
Qin Yu and the others had just entered the palace.
The carriage was stopped by Meng Zhan, Commander-in-Chief of Yulin Wei, "His Royal Highness, Prince Qin, Your Majesty, please come to Huide Hall."
Xiao Nan and Qin Yu got out of the carriage.
Xiao Nan turned to look at Chen Kui, "Take Qing'er back to the East Palace and settle down well."
"Yes, Your Highness." Chen Kui responded, and then drove away in a hurry.
Meng Zhan carried a horizontal sword at his waist and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, Prince Qin, please come!"
Later, under the leadership of Meng Zhan, Qin Yu and Xiao Nan headed towards Huide Hall.
Originally, Xiao Nan was a little timid.
But looking at Qin Yu, he became much stronger and had an inexplicable sense of responsibility.
He really regarded Qin Yu as a brother and wanted to protect him.
I don't know why, but Xiao Nan just feels that Qin Yu is very transparent and sensible, especially when it comes to his temper.
Lean less.
Qin Yu and Xiao Nan arrived outside Huide Hall, and were led into the hall by Fu'an, the chief steward of the imperial court.
As soon as I entered the palace.
A heavy sense of depression swept over me.
Emperor Wei was sitting on the futon, his expression gloomy and extremely serious.
The eldest princess of Taiping, Xiao Rou, was as indifferent as water, with slightly wrinkled eyebrows.
Queen Chen was sitting next to Emperor Wei, her face not very pretty.
Except for the three of them.
There are also Lu Yingcai, the crown prince, and Fan Junliang, the right servant of Shangshu.
Qin Yu could clearly see that the memorial on Emperor Wei's desk was probably written by him.
Snap!
Emperor Wei slammed the table angrily, looked at Qin Yu and Xiao Nan, and said angrily: "Qin Yu, do you know your guilt!?"
Xiao Nan just wanted to show off.
Qin Yu was the first to stand up. He was calm and bowed slightly, "I don't know."
When these words came to the ground, everyone was shocked.
Queen Chen's eyes were full of confusion.
There was confusion in Xiao Rou's eyes.
Lu Yingcai, the prince's master, had a calm old face from beginning to end.
Wei Huang was about to ask a question.
The minister's right servant shot Fan Junliang, stood up quickly, and coldly snorted: "Your Majesty, what the minister said is right, isn't it? Qin Yu was just lucky enough to write an essay on border policy last night, so where is his real talent and learning?
"
"Besides, those are all Qin Yaowen's words. Who knows if he wrote it and asked Qin Yu to pretend to be him!?"
"Wei Chen suggested that Qin Yu should be dismissed from his post first, and then we should thoroughly investigate the matter and find out what kind of evil intentions Qin Yu had to bring the prince to a smoky place like Jiaofangsi!"
Fan Junliang, a Shandong native, was a veteran of the former dynasty. He came from a scholarly family and was a founding hero of the new dynasty. He held a high position and had great power.
He and Qin Wenyao were extremely at odds with each other.
Qin Wenyao took the position of Minister of Household Affairs that he had left to his nephew.
The tea business of the Qin and Zhang family also competed with the Fan family's business.
So whenever he gets a chance, he will make trouble for Qin Wenyao.
Qin Wenyao was sent home by Emperor Wei two days ago, and Fan Junliang was among them who contributed to the situation.
The Fan family can be said to be the mortal enemies of the Qin Palace.
Xiao Rou's eyes were indifferent and she said slowly: "Fanda, the prince sneaked out of the palace. The whole story is still unknown. Why are you so aggressive?"
"But Mr. Fan, you are so well-informed that not a single move of the prince can escape your eyes."
Fan Junliang bowed hurriedly and said: "Elder Princess, you can rebuke me as much as you want, but you must not slander my loyalty!"
As he said that, he turned to look at Emperor Wei, his voice trembling, "Your Majesty, you should be able to understand my good intentions! I am doing this for His Highness the Crown Prince and for the future of Wei!"
The words just fell.
Xiao Nan took a step forward, protected Qin Yu behind him, glared at Fan Junliang, and said angrily: "You fart! What evidence do you have? Just talk nonsense here and slander Qin Yu with great eloquence. I think you are harboring evil intentions."
!”
"Why do you, Fan Junliang, come after me? How can you bully Qin Yu to be honest? I want to leave the palace, how can a small official like him stop me!?"
When he said this, he was filled with astonishment.
No one expected that Xiao Nan would stand up and confront Fan Junliang.
Emperor Wei looked at him in amazement and disbelief.
In the past, when facing Emperor Wei, Xiao Nan didn't say anything, he didn't even dare to breathe, he was tall and powerful, but he always looked submissive.
But today, Xiao Nan was so tough for Qin Yu.
What bothered Emperor Wei the most was that Xiao Nan looked brave, but always looked humble when facing him.
Xiao Nan was so tough today, but Emperor Wei was a little pleased.
Without majesty, how can we deter Wei in the future?
Listen to Xiao Nan's words.
Fan Junliang was stunned.
This was the first time he saw Xiao Nan speak so loudly in front of Emperor Wei, and he was at a loss for a moment.
Snap!
Emperor Wei stood up and shouted angrily: "What are you shouting for!? What I'm asking is Qin Yu, do you want you to talk too much here? If anyone says another word, get out of here!"
Seeing that Emperor Wei was angry, everyone stopped talking.
Fan Junliang also put out the fire instantly.
Immediately afterwards.
Emperor Wei turned to look at Qin Yu and asked again: "You took the prince to fool around in Jiaofangsi. Isn't that called a mistake?"
