Chapter 1138 Escaped!
"Actually, Weichen's suggestion is that you have just ascended the throne, your majesty, and the late emperor has just passed away. If the second prince is dealt with now, some people may gossip." Lin Chen said seriously.

When the others heard Lin Chen's words, they all lowered their heads and thought for a while.

"Actually, before my father passed away, my father once told me that after I ascended the throne, I must not kill any prince." Zhan Xi said, looking at the three people in front of him.

"The emperor is right. When the late emperor passed away, he did explain that none of the late emperor's sons should be left behind. Even if there is a prince who really committed a crime, he cannot take his life." At this time, a person walked in from outside the hall.

When the people in the hall saw the person who came in, they all respectfully shouted, "Prince An (uncle emperor)."

Prince An smiled at them, "You continue to discuss, just pretend that the king is not here."

These people naturally dare not do this, although this Prince An seems to be powerless in this court.

But their prestige still has a great influence in this court.

"Uncle Huang, you are here, please take a seat." As soon as Zhan Xi finished speaking, a eunuch moved a stool for Prince An immediately.

Prince An quickly waved his hands, "No need, Your Majesty, the old minister is still in good health, it doesn't matter if you stand up."

"Uncle Huang, what do you think we should do with the second brother? The second brother has committed such a serious crime. If he is completely acquitted, even if I agree, most people in the court will not agree." Zhan Xi asked Prince An for advice with a troubled expression on his face.

Prince An stroked his beard and thought for a while, "Actually, this matter is not difficult to deal with. We can do it like this. Although the first emperor had a decree, we cannot kill any prince, but we can imprison him. The second child committed a crime. If such a big matter is not punished, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the people outside."

"Imprisonment?" Zhan Xi murmured Prince An's proposal just now.

Suddenly, Zhan Xi's eyes lit up, he looked at Prince An and asked, "Then Uncle Huang, how do you think we have a method of imprisonment?"

"Didn't the first emperor just pass away recently? When the late emperor's body enters the mausoleum, at that time, the tomb needs someone to guard it, so send the second child there." Prince An said with a faint smile on his face. road.

"This is a good way, seventh brother, oh, no, it's the emperor, the emperor, the emperor's uncle's method is fine, I think we can just follow the emperor's uncle's method." Zhan Hao had a satisfied expression on his face. Looking at Zhan Xi with a big smile.

Zhan Xi thought for a while, then nodded slightly, "Okay, then just do what Uncle Huang said about this matter."

Just as Zhan Xi finished speaking, a eunuch suddenly ran in from outside.

Zhan Xi frowned, and looked at the eunuch who suddenly ran in with displeasure, "Who told you to come in, didn't you see that I was discussing things with the ministers?"

The eunuch who ran in had a frightened expression on his face, and he stammered, "Go back, go back to the emperor, Mr. Si, the head of the criminal department outside the palace, please see me."

Zhan Xi let out an "oh", then glanced at Hao Ren and the others. "Master Xuansi, come in."

Zhan Xi looked at the eunuch kneeling in the center of the hall and said.Seeing that he was not scolded, the eunuch breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately replied, "Yes."

After a while, the Lord of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs came in.

"Master Si asked to see me, why?" Zhan Xi looked at Master Si who hurried over and asked.Lord Si knelt on the ground with a plop, "Your Majesty, I'm guilty, I didn't take good care of the Second Prince and let him escape."

Zhan Xi, who was sitting on the dragon chair, immediately stood up from the chair he was sitting on when he heard Mr. Si's words.

"Master Si, what do you mean by this sentence? How could the Second Prince escape? What are you people from the Ministry of Punishment for?"

Lord Si looked guilty, "I'm guilty. This morning, when the guards from the Ministry of Punishment went in to deliver food to the second prince, they found that the second prince was not in prison. There was a secret passage inside. I guessed that the second prince escaped from there. "

"It's such a big matter that your Ministry of Criminal Justice only now knows about. The people in your Ministry of Criminal Justice are really nice." Lin Chen looked at Master Si expressionlessly.

Master Si lowered his head, his forehead was covered with cold sweat. "Have you sent someone out to look for it?" Zhan Xi took several deep breaths until he was sure that he was not so angry, then he looked at Master Si who was kneeling in the center of the hall and asked.

Mr. Si immediately replied, "We have already sent people from the Ministry of Criminal Justice to look for it, but there is no news yet."

"Your Majesty, I should also send some people out to look for it." Li Shi suddenly stood up and said to Zhan Xi respectfully.

Zhan Xi glanced at Li Shi who stood up, and remembered what Li Shi usually did, so he immediately agreed, "Okay, Master Li, you must do your best to find it, and you must bring the rebel Zhan Zun back to me." .”

Li Shi answered loudly, "Yes." After answering these words, Li Shi quickly turned around and left the palace.

"What are you still doing here? Your Ministry of Criminal Justice is not looking for someone. What are you doing standing in front of me? I tell you, if you can't find the Second Prince, all of you in the Ministry of Criminal Justice should be more careful." Zhan Xi said angrily. Turning red, he roared while staring at Master Si who was kneeling in the center of the hall.

Master Si stood up with trembling legs, lowered his head, and hurriedly responded. "I know, I know, I will send someone to look for it now."

After saying this, Lord Si saluted Zhan Xi, then stumbled out of the palace.

Because of this bad incident, the original good atmosphere was washed away.

"Uncle Huang, what should we do now, my second brother has escaped." Zhan Xi looked at Prince An.

Prince An sighed, "Oh, this second prince is really confused, now that everything has been settled, where is he going to escape to, all this imperial land belongs to the Dayong Dynasty, he is really Too confused." Prince An shook his head and sighed.

"Your Majesty, if the Second Prince is captured this time, he will be put directly in the prison of the Clan Mansion, and he will never come out." Prince An looked at Zhan Xi sadly.

All the people present took a deep breath when they heard the decision made by Prince An.

This punishment sounds like nothing, but when implemented, it is a punishment that makes life worse than death.Living in that kind of dark and damp prison all year round, with the **** facing the surrounding walls, that kind of feeling makes people feel more uncomfortable than death.

Regarding the punishment proposed by Prince An, no one present raised any objections.

It is equivalent to indirectly agreeing to Prince An's punishment.

A country cannot live without a king for a day.After sending Yongdi's body into the imperial mausoleum, within two days, Zhan Xi ascended the throne under the witness of civil and military officials, and changed his country name to Hui.
