The old hoarse voice came far into the Yiqing Hall.
This is the voice of King Huainan.
After a while, a chamberlain hurriedly came in and reported: "Your Majesty, Mr. Sheng has been killed by a guard. King Huainan fainted. The prince of Huainan vomited a mouthful of heart blood and also fainted."
Witnessing the death of his most cherished and beloved eldest grandson with a stick was a fatal blow to the old and frail King Huainan. After this fainting, I wonder if he can still wake up safely.
On the other hand, the Prince of Huainan is in his prime. Not to mention vomiting a mouthful of blood, even if he vomits ten mouthfuls, his life will not be affected.
Emperor Jianwen's expression was cold and unmoved: "I ordered people to carry the father and son in. Let the imperial doctor come and rescue them. If they cannot be saved, let them be buried together!"
As soon as these words came out, Xie Mingxi and Sheng Hong breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.
No matter whether King Huainan can survive this calamity or not, from today onwards, the Palace of Huainan King has completely lost its Sacred Heart, and there is no possibility of turning over.
The happiest thing in the world is to see your enemy die with your own eyes.
Xie Mingxi has never been a kind-hearted person, Sheng Hong is also used to life and death, and at this time, he only feels happy.
The secret joy and excitement in the third prince's heart was no weaker than that of Xie Mingxi and Sheng Hong.
After this heavy blow, the fourth prince's strength was greatly damaged. More importantly, Emperor Jianwen also became suspicious of the fourth prince. This was the most fatal and terrifying blow to the fourth prince!
In the battle for the throne, the fourth prince has been completely at a disadvantage!
…
Soon, Prince Huainan and his son were carried in.
The unlucky imperial doctor was called into the Yiqing Hall again.
Compared with Master Ding and his son who were left with only one breath left, the situation of Prince Huainan and his son was much better. One suffered from excessive excitement and grief and fainted, and the other vomited blood from his heart.
The two imperial doctors each applied acupuncture, and within a moment, Prince Huainan had a reaction.
"Axuan!"
Before the prince of Huainan opened his eyes, he called out to his son first. He shouted again and again. His voice was full of sorrow and mourning. Unfortunately, no one in the Qianqing Palace sympathized with him.
The Prince of Huainan opened his eyes, his eyes were blank and unfocused. After a long time, he burst into tears.
The King of Huainan on the side did not know whether the acupuncture was effective or he was awakened by the deafening cry. In short, he also opened his cloudy eyes.
Two tears fell from the corners of King Huainan's eyes.
The sight of his back, covered in blood and flesh, was a hundred times more painful than cutting his flesh and gouging out his heart!
That was the eldest grandson he had raised with his own hands, the eldest grandson who had placed countless high hopes on him! Suddenly he was killed by a stick, his death was so sudden, so unprepared...
"King Huainan!" A familiar voice rang in his ears: "Sheng Xuan stole three crossbows from the Ministry of War and secretly planned to assassinate the seventh prince. Do you know about this?"
This cold and condescending voice belonged to the Emperor Jianwen.
He has lost his eldest grandson! He must not lose the entire Huainan Palace again!
King Huainan woke up from his endless grief, struggled to get up, and knelt in front of Emperor Jianwen, crying: "Your Majesty, I am guilty!"
"I failed to teach my children and grandchildren well. Ah Xuan was young and energetic. He had a grudge against the Xie family because of the incident in Yongning. He regarded the seventh prince's concubine as an enemy, and therefore vented his anger on the seventh prince."
"I had doubts about the assassination of the Seventh Prince on his wedding day. However, I asked him several times, but Ah Xuan refused to admit it. So I took a chance and thought that he really was not responsible for the incident."
"I never expected that he would be so bold as to do such a heinous thing behind my back!"
"The emperor and his subordinates saw this scoundrel killed with a stick. I think there is real evidence. I am really ashamed of the emperor and have no shame to see him again."
King Huainan was repenting and crying at the same time, looking really pitiful.
The Crown Prince of Huainan was not hopelessly stupid. Hearing King Huainan cry like this, he had no choice but to get up tremblingly and kneel beside King Huainan. However, he couldn't hold back a single word, so he just cried along with him.
…
This King of Huainan!
He is indeed an old fox with more eyes than the sieve! He has reached the end of his rope and can still behave like this. It seems that it is impossible to catch all the Huainan Prince's Palace today.
Emperor Jianwen looked a little relaxed.
Xie Mingxi felt quite regretful and winked at Sheng Hong calmly.
Sheng Hong understood the idea and nodded slightly. Then, under the gaze of everyone, he stepped forward and said loudly: "Father, Sheng Xuan has been killed with a stick. The bad breath in my son's heart has also dissipated.
"
"Don't blame those who don't know. Furthermore, the Huainan Prince's Palace and the Tian Family have the same origin, and they are also blood relatives. Please spare the lives of the Huainan Prince and his son!"
Everyone: "..."
very good!
He first took Sheng Xuan's life, and then stepped forward to be a good person and "intercede" for Prince Huainan and his son. These methods were more cruel than hacking someone with a long knife.
Sure enough, Prince Huainan and his son couldn't stop crying. They wanted to express their gratitude, but they couldn't say it out loud. They were choked there.
Emperor Jianwen, on the other hand, admired the generosity of the seventh prince Sheng Hong. He nodded and praised: "Such a kindheartedness is the magnanimity of a prince."
Damn your princely demeanor!
Prince Huainan cursed in his heart, wishing he could jump up immediately and chop the culprit who killed his son into millions of pieces.
Huainan Wang Shengsheng swallowed the bad breath in his heart and squeezed out a trace of gratitude that was uglier than crying: "Thank you for your generosity, Your Highness."
Sheng Hong sighed, with a look of compassion on his face: "According to the laws of Daqi, anyone who assassinates the prince will be punished by the three clans. Fortunately, I am safe and sound, and my father was particularly merciful and did not convict the Huainan Palace."
"If you want to thank me, then thank your father well. If my father hadn't been so kind, the Huainan Palace would have been filled with blood today, and no one would be spared."
In this world, there is still such a thing as kneeling down to express gratitude to the enemy who killed one’s own grandson?
Yes, there really is!
The king of Huainan burst into tears, kowtowed three times and knelt down to thank Long En.
The Prince of Huainan also kowtows to express gratitude.
This is the supreme imperial power! Not to mention killing their own sons and grandsons, even if they are now rewarded with a glass of poisonous wine, they still have to express their gratitude before drinking the poisonous wine. Otherwise, they are resentful and have not received the emperor's favor.
Disaster for the family!
The gloomy mood in Emperor Jianwen's heart finally dissipated a little at this moment, and he said coldly: "Since the Seventh Prince has interceded for you, I will let the Huainan Palace go today."
"You, father and son, take Sheng Xuan's body back to your home and bury it yourself!"
"The title of King Huainan is no longer hereditary. When King Huainan dies, the title will be taken back. The palace of Huainan Prince will also be taken back to the imperial court."
"King Huainan, I spared you the last dignity because of your loyal service for decades. I hope you will cherish your blessings and live the rest of your life well! Don't waste the dignity I gave you."
