Chapter 286 Doubt

Concubine Hui lowered her eyes slightly, and the calculation in her eyes disappeared in a flash. It's not that she doesn't know how to do many things, it's just that she doesn't want to do them, but now, for her son, she can do anything!

"Your Majesty, be careful, the road is not smooth, be careful!"

"How can I be so squeamish? Even my concubine doesn't dislike the difficulty of this road. Could it be that a man like me is not as good as a concubine like a woman?"

"Your Majesty, how can this be compared? You are the Ninth Five-Year Honor, how can a concubine's feet be as important as yours?"

Dongfang Lie laughed loudly, "Hui'er, as expected, you should go out more often. You never liked to say such things before."

"Your Majesty Nengbo smiled, and the concubine is very satisfied. Besides, the concubine was indeed a little dull before. Your Majesty doesn't go to my place very much these days. I was thinking, is it because I am too boring, so I thought Maybe change it a little bit."

Concubine Hui's calmness moved Dongfang Lie very much. A woman can change her original personality for herself, just to be able to spend more time with herself. How could he not be moved by this?
"Hui Er, don't worry, I also neglected you a few days ago, but after returning to the palace, I will definitely..."

Concubine Hui reached out her hand to stop Dongfang Lie's words, "Your Majesty, the concubine did not say those words to embarrass your majesty. As long as your majesty leaves some space for the concubine in his heart, the concubine will be satisfied. Whether you will accompany me or not in the end, you and I don't care." It's an old couple, so you don't need to pay so much attention, but Sister Su He is young after all, just at the age where she loves to play and play, and I'm afraid His Majesty needs to bother to accompany her!"

"You..." Dongfang Lie's tone was a little helpless, but he could also hear that he was in a good mood.

The two walked while talking, and when they came back to their senses, they walked directly to the gate of the prison.

Dongfang Lie was taken aback for a moment, and then Concubine Hui laughed and said, "Really, I came here unknowingly, Your Majesty, let's go back quickly, it's been so long, I think the carriage should have been repaired!"

Dongfang Lie nodded slightly, and was about to leave when he saw several common people kneeling in front of the jailer guarding the prison.

"My lord, please my lord, please let me see my son. Although he has committed a serious crime this time, he died so inexplicably, it is considered a crime."

An old man kowtowed while crying, and the rest of the people also kowtowed for mercy.

The jailer said expressionlessly: "Go, go, cry and get away, don't get in the way here!"

"My lord, I heard that my son and the others were killed. Couldn't it be okay to collect their bodies?"

"Where did you hear that, let's go! Stop talking nonsense here."

"My lord, you won't let us in. Could it be that my son was really killed? My God, why did he die suddenly in the sky prison? Anyway, we have to go to trial? What is this made of?" Evil!"

The jailer's face became more and more ugly, "Get out of here quickly! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude to you!"

The few people had no choice but to support each other and leave.

Dongfang Lie was suddenly interested. Concubine Hui pulled his sleeve, "Your Majesty, let's go."

Dongfang Lie shook his head, signaled her to be calm, and immediately took two steps forward, asking the jailer directly, "What happened?"

The jailer was upset when a man came suddenly. Although he was well dressed, he didn't have the mind to answer. He waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Don't ask nonsense questions! What do you do? Maybe you are with them."

Dongfang Lie frowned, and just about to get angry, Concubine Hui took a step forward, took out a few pieces of silver from her side, and stuffed them into the hands of the jailer, "Brother, we are just curious for a while."

The jailer weighed the amount of money, although he felt that these people were a bit stupid, but the money should not be for nothing, so the jailer pointed at the common people: "Did you see those people?"

Dongfang Lie nodded, and then the jailer continued: "Their sons were all imprisoned in the sky prison because of the arson case. Speaking of which, those arsonists are also considered unlucky. I heard that they were just punks on the street. Later, someone urged her to set the fire on fire, let’s set it on fire, and set fire to the restaurant of His Royal Highness Sixteenth, almost burning down the prime minister’s mansion together.”

"This matter... ahem, it's really sensational, so what happened later? Didn't the emperor entrust this matter to the prime minister?"

"That's right! It's true that it was handed over to the prime minister, but last night, this group of people had their necks cut for no reason, and they died a terrible death! What's even more strange is that this matter was suppressed for no reason."

"Suppress it? By whom?"

Dongfang Lie frowned tightly, his heart was full of unhappiness!

The jailer pointed to the sky, "Who else? I heard it's someone from above!"

Seeing Dongfang Lie and Concubine Hui still standing there, the jailer said impatiently: "Okay, okay, I've told you about this, hurry up and go!"

Dongfang Lie was still in deep thought, Concubine Hui hurriedly dragged him back, Dongfang Lie didn't say much, but he was already as happy as when he came here before.

"Your Majesty...Your Majesty don't need to worry about these things, we are out to play today, aren't we?"

Concubine Hui looked at Dongfang Lie with concern, which eased his expression a little, but the words he heard outside the prison also made Dongfang Lie a little suspicious of the prince in his heart.

He knew his son, the time for the competition between the crown prince and the sixteenth prince was coming to an end, but at this time, the restaurant in the sixteenth was burned down. He thought it was an accident, but he was caught by the prime minister on the spot. Just when these people were about to be tried, they were silenced again!
No matter how you look at it, there is the shadow of the prince Dongfang Yi.

Knowing the son is like father, Dongfang Lie knows his sons very well, especially the prince. Although he has mostly ignored the behavior of the other party these years, it does not mean that he is not clear about the cruelty of this son, but he It has always been done cleanly, and no one has caught the handle.

The more Dongfang Lie thought about it, the angrier he became!I also became more and more displeased with the prince in my heart.

Dongfang Lie and Concubine Hui returned to the carriage together, but he was no longer in the mood to play, he said with a gloomy expression: "Concubine Hui, I still have something to go back to the palace, if you want to go to Qingguang Temple, I will send someone to see you off You go back."

Concubine Hui sighed, "Your Majesty, the concubine actually just wants to be alone with you. As for Qingguang Temple, the concubine will find another opportunity to go. Your majesty's state affairs are more important."

Dongfang Lie nodded and said: "Alright, so let's go back to the palace together!"

Dongfang Lie and Concubine Hui went back together, and announced the prince Dongfang Yi into the palace at the same time.

In the Xuande Hall, Dongfang Lie was sitting on a chair in the middle of the hall, and at the bottom of the high steps was kneeling the crown prince Dongfang Yi who had just been proclaimed into the palace.

Dongfang Yi lowered his head, his expression could not be clearly seen from the drooping eyebrows.

"Nie Zi! Do you know your mistake!"

"My son, I don't know where my mistakes come from?"

"Bastard! Could it be that I have to catch you with my own hands before you will admit it? You think you are doing it in secret, but don't you know that there is no impenetrable wall in this world?"

Dongfang Yi kowtowed heavily, "My son is dull, I don't know what my father said?"

"you……"

The old emperor was so angry that he couldn't even speak out!

Dongfang Yi still had a serious face and said: "Father, I don't know where Father heard the gossip about my son, but it is true that my son has never done anything out of line! These days, in order to earn money, my son After running around, I realized that it is not easy for my father to be in charge of the world, I thought I would invite my father to sit in the restaurant of my son today, but I never thought that my father would misunderstand my son so much."

Dongfang Lie didn't calm down when he heard the words, but felt that Dongfang Yi was getting more and more slick, which made people very disgusted!

"I'm here to ask you, do you know that the Taotie Tower was burned down?"

"This minister naturally knows, not to mention that in the early court, didn't the emperor already arrest the thief who burned down the sixteenth brother's restaurant?"

"Then do you know that just last night, those people were all silenced!"

Dongfang Yi looked surprised, "How could this be? Aren't these people imprisoned in the prison?"

The emperor sneered, "I'm also very curious, when will my sky prison become the assassins' own garden, come and leave whenever you want!"

Dongfang Yi's expression suddenly changed, "Father, you are not suspicious of my son, are you?"

"So what? Apart from you, I really can't think of anyone in the court who is so capable!"

Dongfang Yi didn't say a word when he heard the words, he just knocked his head heavily on the ground, bloodstains appeared on his forehead soon, it was shocking, his handsome face was full of sadness, it seemed that there was a little grievance.

"Father, if you want to take the name of the crown prince from my son, you can issue an imperial decree and declare it to the world. My son will never blame my father, but now, my father will wrong me because of some rumors. Father, is it true that in your heart, your son is so unbearable?"

Red blood slid down from Dongfang Yi's forehead, making his entire face paler and more fragile, and those romantic peach eyes were full of grievance and pain at this moment.

For a while, the old emperor was confused. Could it be that he guessed wrong?

Dongfang Yi was still kowtowing, but after a while, the marble floor where he kowtowed was already covered with blood, which made people panic.

The old emperor waved his hand, "Okay, okay, don't act wronged, it seems like I bullied you."

"If the father doesn't trust my son, I'm willing to be crushed to death here!"

Dongfang Lie was okay when he heard this, is he threatening himself?Immediately his expression changed: "If you want to die, I will definitely not stop you!"

Dongfang Yi's expression changed, and his downcast eyes were full of fierce light.

"What's going on here?"

Just when the atmosphere was tense, a soft voice with a bit of a smile sounded from the door, and then Dongfang Yi saw Suho fluttering in Yiyin.

The old emperor frowned slightly, "Aifei, why are you here?"

Su Ho's eyes looked at Dongfang Lie affectionately, with a glint of water, slightly pursed his lips, and his long eyelashes trembled slightly, as if a string of teardrops would fall when they fell down.

"Your Majesty doesn't want to see your concubine?"

Su He moved lightly, and put the tea in his hand on the table next to the old emperor, "Your Majesty, this is the soup made by my concubine for you, even if your majesty doesn't want to see my concubine, you can't treat my body badly, right?" ?”

While speaking, Su Ho put down the soup, turned around and was about to leave, but those eyes were already glistening, which made people's heart flutter.
