Solitary pet

Chapter 256

Now that you have come, there is no reason to go back.All his life, he was used to obeying his mother's orders and pleasing his father and emperor. No matter how stupid he was, he knew that even if there were mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead, he had to come to the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

If you don't come, you will be disloyal and filial.Here, even if you can't get some love for the mother, you can at least know a thing or two about what the father thinks.

Li Fuquan sighed calmly, it seems that the prince's calamity today is inevitable.He turned around and reported to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, with a high-pitched and thin voice, but he didn't find it harsh at all. "Prince please see—"

The sage did not declare the prince to have an audience, but let him kneel outside the hall for an hour.

The prince knelt unconscious for a long time. He lowered his head and stared at the stone carved with a dragon in his sight. The dragon with its fangs and claws seemed to break out of the stone, making people feel tight in their chests.

The stars are moving overhead, and the rain that is about to fall is held behind the clouds and dissipates with the dark clouds for a while.The stars come out, but they don't know when they will be replaced by dark clouds.

The cloth was rustling, and a piece of red gauze came into view, "If you want to intercede, then leave early, don't say those useless words."

The prince was stunned, and looked up, the saint's rigid and majestic face was in front of him, he didn't know where he got the courage, and blurted out: "Father, please spare the mother!"

The cause of the incident was already understood on the way here. It was really hard for the mother of a country to say that the empress mother wanted to do such a troublesome thing in the palace, but she was caught by someone.It's just that this matter can be big or small, small ones can be resolved, big ones can be discarded, everything depends on the sage's thinking.

As for Shen Hao's side, the prince has no time to think about it.Whether he ordered it or not, the two brothers are going to come to this point.

The prince was thinking about it, when the sage suddenly said: "On the day when the daughter of the Mei family filed a complaint, I ordered people to investigate thoroughly, but I didn't want to find out that this absurd thing was just a drop in the bucket of the crime committed by your mother."

The prince plopped down on the ground, crawled forward, and hugged the saint's legs, tears came as soon as he said it: "Father, you must not believe the words of a villain!"

The sage looked down at him, with his back to the light, the prince could only ponder the expression on the sage's face at this moment from behind the hazy tears.

The sage didn't give him time to observe, he just kicked him away, and said with a sneer, "A traitor? The biggest traitor in this harem is your good queen mother!"

The prince was dizzy from being kicked, and his head hit the guardrail stone, bleeding faintly.

He remembered the fight with other princes for inkstones when he was a child.At that time, he was not yet a prince. He had just entered the Taixue to study, and the queen mother told him that everything should be ahead of others, so that his father would like him.So he studied as hard as he could, and he wanted to become the best person, to be praised by his father and master.

At the beginning, he was still able to rank in front of others, but gradually, he found that no matter how hard he tried, he was no match for other princes.Even the third brother, who was lazy and lazy to study, read a few words casually before the exam, and the comments he got were far better than his.

Are they too smart, or is he too stupid?The prince didn't dare to think about it, and he didn't dare to ask, he was afraid that if he said it, others would look at him.Sometimes, some things, as long as you don't say it, it's nothing.

He worked twice as hard as before, but in the end he could only achieve mediocre results.Far from being among the best.He could bury his head in his studies and be respectful to his younger brothers, even if he was on the verge of madness with jealousy.

Until one time, the father said that he wrote a good article, with the model of Confucius and Mencius, and rewarded him with a Nanshan inkstone.The Third Highness fell in love with him, and said he wanted it, so he begged him to give it to him. How could he be willing? What kind of person is the Third Highness?

The Third Highness thought, anyway, he is only five years old, and his eldest brother is eight years old, so he will definitely not care about him.But he didn't want to, that time, the crown prince beat his six-year-old little brother badly.

The prince shrieked and protected the inkstone in his arms, pouted and said to the sage who heard the news: "Aye, the third brother wants to snatch your inkstone for rewarding me."

The saint slapped him across the face.

The prince didn't care about the swollen face on the left side, and looked at his father who existed like a god in his heart in disbelief.

Why did the father beat him? It was clearly the third brother's fault!
The sage pointed at the prince and scolded angrily: "As an elder brother, you should set an example, how can you compete with younger brothers!"

The prince thought, maybe he was wrong this time.He is an elder brother, he should be modest.

The young prince accepted such a reprimand with his almost naive thoughts, until one time, he saw His Second Highness robbing the Third Highness's belongings.

The prince thought to himself, this time, the emperor will definitely teach his second brother the same way he taught him!

The sage asked the Third Highness to apologize to the Second Highness.

"As a younger brother, how can you compete with your elder brother? Be friendly and respect him."

At that moment, the prince understood that the justice of the father is not for everyone.In the next 20 years, he felt this unfairness almost all the time, but he couldn't cry out to resist.

The sage turned around and left a sentence without emotion: "From now on, the prince is forbidden to enter the East Palace and reflect on March."

At this moment, the prince suddenly didn't want to keep silent anymore.He shouted, with the greatest strength in his life, "Sage stay!"
