Chapter 526 Look at Me if I Don't Kill Him!
The next morning, the prince took out the dossier presented by the Ministry of Punishment at the small court meeting, and publicly revealed the matter of the king of You Luo Yunxuan buying the murderer.
The five cabinet ministers were shocked.
The person who reacted the most at the scene was British King Luo Yechen. He never wanted to bribe the killer to assassinate him, but it was his second brother.
Although he usually doesn't deal with his second brother very much, it's not to the point of life and death!
Luo Yechen was furious, if Luo Yunxuan was here, he would have to put him on the ground and beat him to death!
He stepped forward, righteous indignation.
"Royal father, the second brother hired a killer to assassinate the son. This matter must not be taken lightly. I beg the father and the son to be the master of the son!"
The emperor's face sinks like water.
He looked at the prince coldly, and after a long time said, "Prince and King Ying stay, and everyone else will step down."
The five patriarchs were all human beings. Knowing that the emperor did not want to let the scandal spread, they all retired and left.
When the outsiders were gone, only the father and son were left in the discussion hall.
Seeing that the royal father still didn't speak, Luo Yechen couldn't help it, and said eagerly.
"Before the second brother is far away, we quickly send someone to stop him. We must ask him to explain the assassination, otherwise Erchen will not be able to swallow that breath!"
The emperor said coldly: "What kind of explanation do you want? Do you still want me to kill King You to avenge you?"
Luo Yechen was stunned.
He subconsciously said: "Second brother did something wrong, shouldn't he be punished?"
Emperor: "Even if there is a penalty, it's still our housework. The Crown Prince just stabs this matter out without my permission. Do you want everyone to see our royal jokes?!"
At the end, his tone has become extremely stern, and his eyes looking at the prince are like knives, sharp and sharp.
Luo Qinghan lowered his eyes: "I just want to give justice to the eldest brother."
Luo Yechen opened his eyes slightly, feeling extremely moved.
It turned out that the prince did all this for his big brother.
The emperor sneered: "Don't say it in such a high-sounding manner, you just don't believe that I can handle this matter fairly, and deliberately make it a big deal, forcing me to choose between King Ying and King You. I dare to calculate, do you still have this father and emperor in your eyes?!"
Luo Qinghan seemed to be greatly stimulated, his eyes gradually turned red, and his voice trembled.
"It turns out that in the eyes of the father, Erchen is such a villain who will do anything to achieve his goals."
He laughed at himself, his smile pale and bleak.
"Since the father has determined that the son's mind is impure, even if the son's explanation is in vain, the son has nothing to say. The father can punish the son whatever he wants, and the son will never complain."
After he finished speaking, he knelt down and looked like he was giving up on himself.
Luo Yechen couldn't take it any longer, and knelt down with a thud: "Father, all this is because of the son and the minister, it has nothing to do with the prince, the crown prince does all this for the sake of the son, and the father will punish the son if he wants to punish him. Lord!"
The emperor looked at the two sons kneeling in front of him, and his face became more and more ugly.
What he most wanted to see was the unity and harmony of his sons.
But what he was most afraid of seeing was the unity and harmony of his sons.
In the past, he could use the eldest prince and the second prince to check and balance the prince, but now the second prince is far away and can't come back in a short time.
The prince's opponents are disappearing one by one.
The balance carefully created by the emperor was broken.
He closed his eyes, took a slow deep breath, and tried to suppress the deepening depression in his heart.
After a long time, he spoke slowly.
"You don't have to do this, I am not only the emperor, but also your father, I will not let you suffer grievances and ignore it. This time, King You did something wrong, and he is sorry for you, but he has left Shengjing, and I will call him again. Coming back may cause unnecessary speculation from outsiders. So, King Ying, you lead someone to chase King You, and you will flog King You for twenty whips instead of me as a punishment."
For Luo Yechen, just twenty whips is too cheap for Luo Yunxuan, at least one hundred whips should kill him!
But Luo Yechen could see that this was the biggest concession that the emperor could make.
If he has an inch, the father may let him go and blame him for being unreasonable, and then it will be his fault.
Luo Yechen could only respond reluctantly: "My son, I will obey the will of the emperor."
Luo Qinghan said in a low voice: "My son did all this, not to force the father emperor to do something to the second brother, the son just wanted to take this opportunity to tell everything, so as to avoid the relationship between the eldest brother and the second brother. There is another estrangement. My son may be a little impatient and ill-considered in doing things, and I hope that the father and the first emperor will forgive me."
He took the initiative to give the steps, and the emperor walked down the steps.
"It's hard for you to take pains. Just now, I said too much. Don't take it to heart."
The tense atmosphere just now calmed down.
The relationship between the father and son seems to have returned to harmony.
After walking out of the council hall, Luo Yechen finally couldn't bear it anymore, and complained to the prince,
"The father is too partial to the second brother. The second brother made such a big mistake, and he was only given twenty whips."
Luo Qinghan said lightly: "Elder brother, please be careful, since the father has made a decision, we sons can't make irresponsible remarks."
Luo Yechen pouted, disdain for his upright and serious look.
Luo Qinghan: "When are you going to go out of the city to chase the second emperor?"
Luo Yechen said as a matter of course: "Of course, the sooner the better. After I catch up with him, let's see if I don't kill him!"
Luo Qinghan: "Gu Heng said that King You's car disappeared on the way. No one knows his whereabouts now. You'd better be careful when chasing him."
Luo Yechen was surprised: "Missing? When did it happen? Why didn't I know?"
Luo Qinghan didn't answer and walked away.
Luo Yechen called him several times, but he couldn't stop him, so he could only turn around angrily and leave.
After leaving the palace, Luo Yechen immediately called Qi and the horses and chased in the direction that King You left.
Luo Yechen was still skeptical of the prince's words, until he personally checked along the way, and he really couldn't find the trace left by King You, so he had to face the reality——
King You really disappeared!
Luo Yechen didn't continue to search blindly, he scattered all the servants he kept under his hand,
"Usually, this king serves you delicious food and drink, but now it's finally time for you to serve this king. No matter what method you use, this king only needs one result, and it is the whereabouts of King You! As long as anyone among you can help This king will reward you with three thousand taels of silver for accomplishing this!"
