Chapter 50 Severe Punishment of the Crown PrinceYun Shu hooked his neck and walked towards their own tent with a smile: "Do you want to eat the hot pot I told you about before?" "eat!" As expected, Yun Chuhuan no longer worried about Emperor Xuanwu's reward. He had actually been madly attracted to hotpot when Yun Shu first mentioned it, but he just didn't have the courage to say it out loud at that time. After waiting for Yun Shu to bring it up again, Yun Chuhuan immediately became active: "Then should we go to the cook's tent and bring back the pot first? Is this hot pot pot the same as an ordinary pot? " “It’s not quite the same.” Yun Shu hesitated for a moment: "Although an ordinary pot can be used, if I must say, a tripod is more suitable." "tripod?"
Yun Chuhuan scratched his head. He has always tried to use the best things within his ability no matter what he has done since he was a child. Since Yun Shu said that hot pot is better cooked in a cauldron, he directly ruled out the option of an ordinary iron pot. "I think the people in the kitchen don't have a tripod. My mother and I didn't bring any this time... Now I have it!" Yun Chuhuan's eyes lit up: "I remember that when I first arrived in the morning, when my mother ordered the palace maids to pack up, I walked around and saw a tent dedicated to storing various sundries. We can go look there!" "Okay!" Yun Shu agreed happily. The two men had nothing to do, so they simply went to the tent in person. Just as Yun Chuhuan said, there were a lot of miscellaneous items piled up in this tent. The further you went inside, the more dust there was on the items. One can tell at a glance which items were thrown in today and which have been forgotten here for many years. "Fifth sister, look at this!" With his sharp eyes, he discovered a not-so-big porcelain tripod with cloud pattern in a gap. Relying on his small size, he crouched and squeezed in. Yun Chuhuan excitedly took out the beautiful cloud-patterned tripod: “This should work, right?” "Porcelain tripod? It's a little small, but it's okay!" Yun Shu nodded. On the other hand, Emperor Xuanwu had already let the prince leave. The two assassins were taken away for interrogation, but there would definitely be no results for a while, and there was a high possibility that no results would ever be obtained. After all, those two men were obviously specially trained assassins.
Emperor Xuanwu sat at the table with a gloomy expression, and suddenly said: "Go and find the eldest prince for me." "Yes." Li Dehai retreated from the tent in fear. He didn't even dare to think deeply about what it meant for the emperor to look for the eldest prince at this time. About half an hour later, the eldest prince arrived. He looked like he had hurried back after receiving the news while hunting. He had not yet taken off his light armor, and when he entered the tent, he even had a hearty smile on his face. "Father, you suddenly summoned me here. Is it..." "Kneel down for me!" The sudden shout from Emperor Xuanwu made the eldest prince's expression change instantly. He fell to his knees with a thud, his eyes filled with panic that could not be concealed: "Father, did I do something wrong?" "Stop pretending to me!" Look at the expression of this eldest son. He looks so sincere! If he hadn't already known the truth, I'm afraid he would have been able to hide it today! Emperor Xuanwu was so angry that he picked up the paperweight on the table and threw it at the eldest prince. The eldest prince was startled and subconsciously turned his head away. boom! The paperweight hit the ceramic incense burner behind him heavily. Ceramic fragments were scattered all over the floor, and one of the fragments even splashed onto the back of the eldest prince's hand, leaving a long bloody cut. But the eldest prince didn't care about this minor injury at all at this moment. He hit his head on the ground in panic: "Father, please calm down. I really don't know what I have done wrong!" "You still dare to be stubborn even after all this!" The moment the paperweight was thrown out, a trace of panic actually flashed through Emperor Xuanwu's heart. Fortunately, the eldest prince dodged it. Emperor Xuanwu had just breathed a sigh of relief, but when he heard the other party's words, which showed no trace of guilt, he immediately became furious: "Okay, you don't admit it, right? Then I ask you, where is the white 'divine deer' that you secretly asked someone to find a few days ago?" My father actually knew about it! The fear in his heart reached its peak at this moment, and the eldest prince closed his eyes fiercely: "I know I was wrong!" Murdering the crown prince is a serious crime and he cannot admit it.
and so…… The eldest prince slowly stood up and said with a pale face: "I was just too scared. I was afraid that I would lose to the prince in the autumn hunt and make you disappointed in me. That's why I secretly asked someone to find a 'divine deer' and pretend that I had caught it in the autumn hunt. After the disappearance of the 'divine deer', I have been living in fear every day, fearing that you would know about this. I was somewhat relieved in my heart, relieved that the 'divine deer' was missing, and I couldn't deceive my father anymore..." Confess a small sin and deny a large one. His eldest son is very clever. It seems that he was sure that he did not have sufficient evidence. Or maybe he knew that even if he had evidence in his hands, he would not really be cruel to this bastard unless the prince was harmed. "Are you still very proud?" Emperor Xuanwu stared coldly at the eldest prince kneeling in front of him, and suddenly sneered: "Come here, pass on the order! General Cheng Weihan of Ningyuan was planning to collude with the eldest prince to deceive the emperor and was immediately thrown into prison. Shu Fei was not strict in educating her children, so she was demoted to Shu Bin. The eldest prince was dismissed from his post in the Ministry of War, fined for three years, and ordered to go to Longhua Temple to pray for Tiansheng for half a year! " "Father!" The eldest prince was horrified. General Ningyuan Cheng Weihan was his uncle, and being stripped of his position and thrown into prison was already a painful loss for him. My mother's demotion was a humiliation. And removing him from his post in the Ministry of War and sending him to Longhua Temple to pray for Tiansheng was clearly an attempt to keep him away from the court for half a year! The old foxes in the court are like spirits. If he really had been away for half a year, how could he have the capital to compete with the prince when he came back! Unexpectedly, Emperor Xuanwu punished the crown prince so severely this time when he was fine. The eldest prince was so panicked that he wanted to plead for himself again. But Emperor Xuanwu was determined to teach him a lesson this time and did not give him any chance to speak: "You should be thankful that Xiaowu and Laoliu are here today, as they have messed up your plans by accident. If something really happened to the prince today, I would not let him off so easily! " Spare me lightly... Haha, my father actually thinks this is a light punishment! The eldest prince was completely desperate. He slowly bowed his head and said dejectedly: "Thank you, Father, for your grace!" (End of this chapter)
