"Your Majesty!" A chamberlain from Shuiyue Palace quickly walked to the door of Shuiyue Palace and shouted loudly, "The fourth prince wants to see you!"
After he called out, there was no response from inside. He had to cast a look for help at the leader of the chamberlain at the door. The leader looked embarrassed, and he turned to look at the captain of the guard at the side inquiringly.
But the leader of the guard did not squint his eyes and had a cold expression on his face. The leader of the guard had no choice but to whisper to the guard: "Your Majesty fell asleep at the quarter o'clock this morning... Not to mention the Fourth Highness, the King of Heaven is here now. Not seen either!”
The chamberlain cursed in his heart: He didn't fall asleep until half a hour after playing in Ming Fei's Shuiyue Palace? ! In another hour, it will be early morning! What a foolish king! What a foolish king! With such a big thing happening right now, you still have such lustful thoughts!
However, although this chamberlain cursed and cursed in his heart, his face showed no expression. He had no choice but to retreat, and then trotted all the way to the Fourth Prince Zhao Lie who was kneeling outside the Shuiyue Palace and asked to see him, and whispered: "Fourth Prince Zhao Liexian was kneeling to see him. Your Majesty, Your Majesty is taking a rest and has not yet gotten up early..."
"Wake up early?" Zhao Liexian couldn't help but said angrily, "What time is it now? The sun is shining on your butts! You bastards must have deliberately obstructed it! Yes or no!!"
With that said, Zhao Lie first grabbed the servant's ear, causing him to scream.
The servant wailed with a mournful face: "Your Highness, even if I had the heart of a bear and a leopard, I wouldn't dare! Who in the world would be so slow as to not report the news about you!"
Zhao Lie pushed him away first and said angrily: "Then get out of here, I'm going in now!"
As soon as he moved, the imperial forest guards in front of the palace immediately stretched out their hands to stop him. The leader of the guards said respectfully: "Your Highness, you are not allowed to enter the palace without the emperor's order!"
Zhao Liexian said angrily: "Go away! I want to see my father, how dare you stop me?!"
This guard commander was none other than the one who wanted to take the blame on Li Chengfeng, but was beaten back by Zhao Feiyue. Although the whole incident was not found out later, he was demoted three levels in a row because of it, but Finally the job was saved.
Precisely because of this, the guard commander was particularly serious at this time. He knew that if he offended His Majesty again, his job as an official would be over.
Although with his family background and conditions, he would have enjoyed endless glory and wealth in his life if he were not an official.
But among the people sitting in this position, who doesn’t have any ambition at all? Who can bear the humiliation of being raped down like this
Although the rivers and lakes are big, people’s words are formidable!
The guard commander stared at Zhao Liexian seriously and said, "Your Highness, Fourth Highness, I'm offended! You are not allowed to enter the palace without the emperor's order!"
At this time, the imperial guards on the left and right behind him crossed their swords at the same time. Although they were not unsheathed, the power was coming towards them, which had a strong deterrent effect.
Zhao Liexian stared at him deeply, then took a step back. He turned around and grabbed the former chamberlain, quietly stuffed a banknote into his hand, and whispered: "Who is in the palace today?" On duty?"
The waiter pinched the banknote, felt the thickness and knew it was a five hundred tael banknote. He immediately felt that the pain in his ears was gone, and a smile appeared on his face involuntarily: "Today The other one is Eunuch Huang on duty..."
Zhao Lie whispered in his ear: "Go and report it again and tell Eunuch Huang that I have urgent matters to report to my father. If the matter is delayed, I will not be able to save him!"
The chamberlain's face suddenly froze and he looked embarrassed. At this time, Zhao Liexian said again: "If he reports to my father in time, I will thank you profusely afterwards!"
The servant thought for a while, gritted his teeth, nodded, and said: "Your Highness, Fourth Prince, please wait a moment and allow me to report again!"
The eunuch walked away quickly, while Zhao Liexian stood in front of the palace. His eyes wandered and he looked around. Although he stood upright and looked calm and composed, his clenched fists turned white with force. The tips of his fingers all showed the anxiety and impatience in his heart.
He knew that he had to see the emperor before the prince, so that he could take a preemptive strike!
But as the saying goes, whatever you fear will come!
Not long after, Zhao Liexian heard something he absolutely didn't want to hear at this time: "The prince is here!"
The prince was the supervisor of the country at this time, and he was the largest among the emperors. As soon as he came, everyone here knelt down, even the fourth prince Zhao Liexian had to kneel down.
But he just knelt down symbolically, waiting for the prince to let him level up at any time. After all, this was the etiquette when their brothers met in the past.
But this time, when he kneeled down subconsciously, he found that the prince did not stop him, but remained silent.
At this time, the fourth prince had to complete the etiquette, bow his head and kneel down, and he could not get up until the prince said he was level. This is called etiquette, and anyone who violates it will be attacked by a group of censors, and they will be beaten with words and writing until they are completely bruised!
Da Qi attaches great importance to etiquette and filial piety. As the fourth prince who aspires to compete for the throne, if he takes the lead and fails to abide by etiquette, he will basically withdraw from the competition for the throne.
After all, in any game or competition, if a participant does not abide by the rules of the game, he will definitely be eliminated!
Unless he himself is both a participant and a rule maker.
Zhao Lie lowered his head and waited for a while, but saw that the prince still didn't make a sound. Only the pair of climbing dragon cloud shadow boots stood motionless in front of him.
Although he didn't say a word, Zhao Liexian felt extremely terrible pressure!
After enduring this for a while, Zhao Liexian raised his head, stood up with a smile, and said, "Today is a coincidence. I didn't expect to meet my third brother here. Father..."
Before he could finish speaking, Zhao Hanqing stared at him with extremely gloomy eyes, and his voice became even deeper and angrier: "Who told you to get up?"
The smile on Zhao Liexian's face froze. He forced a smile and said, "What's wrong with Third Brother? He lost such a big temper. This is..."
Zhao Hanqing interrupted him very rarely, and regardless of the people around him, he sternly yelled: "Who told you to get up!!"
Zhao Liexian finally couldn't stand it any longer. His face darkened and he said, "Third brother, what should I say? I am also a prince. How can the dignity of the royal family be a matter of mood?"
Zhao Hanqing gritted his teeth and laughed angrily: "Oh? Do you still know the dignity of the royal family? It seems that you still have a trace of shame in your heart?"
Zhao Liexian said coldly: "What the third brother is saying, the younger brother can't understand!"
Zhao Hanqing gritted his teeth and said, "Don't you know what you did?"
Zhao Liexian sneered: "I have seen too many things that my brother has done. If my brother doesn't tell me, how will my brother know?"
Zhao Hanqing was furious. He took a step closer, and his usually quiet and gentle face turned murderous: "How can the people of Taiyang be blamed! You did such a thing that is outraged by both humans and gods and inhumane. You want to annihilate yourself from Daqi and annihilate yourself." In the world!"
Zhao Liexian also said angrily: "Brother, please be careful with your words! Even if you are the prince of the prison country, you cannot slander anyone!"
Zhao Hanqing said angrily: "What? Do you dare to do it or not? Aren't you always proud that you have the right to do it? You are ambitious! You have done something so outrageous and resentful, and you finally dare not admit it?"
Zhao Liexian calmed down at this time. He stared at Zhao Hanqing, took a deep breath, and said categorically: "Third brother, I, Zhao Liexian, am an upright man. I am absolutely selfless in everything I do. No malice! I will never deny that some things were done by me, and there are some things that were not done by me, so don’t even think about putting this shit basin on my head!"
Zhao Hanqing was furious: "You!! You are shameless and unreasonable!"
The two of them were nose to nose, and while the sparks were flying in the confrontation, a cry suddenly came from the palace: "Your Majesty summons the crown prince and the fourth prince to see you!"
The eunuchs, maids and guards around him all breathed a sigh of relief. The spark-filled confrontation just now really made their hair stand on end, fearing that they would be involved and harm Chi Yu!
But when they watched the two brothers enter Shuiyue Palace without looking at each other, they all knew that this time it was officially announced that the crown prince and the fourth prince had broken up!
Next, the battle for the inheritance will enter the most cruel and intense stage!
