Chapter 173 Brothers

  The emperor didn't answer, so he looked at Li Ji so determinedly.

  The others were all bowing their heads, and the atmosphere did not dare to breathe.

  Hanzhang Palace fell into deathly silence.

  The emperor closed his eyes.

  If it were someone else who dared to say such a rebellious thing in front of him, he would have dragged the person out for a long time ago.

  But now he just took a deep breath, tried to suppress the turbulent emotions in his heart, and asked in a calm tone as much as possible.

  "Do you know what the crime of murdering the prince was?"

  Li Ji doesn't care much about authenticity.

   "Left and right are just death. Anyway, being killed by the prince is also death. It's better to let go, at least you can breathe out a bad breath before you die."

  The emperor was so furious at his fearless appearance.

  Zuo Ji was shocked when seeing the emperor covering his heart and frowning, he hurried forward to support the emperor.

  Zuo Ji helped the emperor pat his back, while instructing the little **** next to him.

   "Go get Ning Xin Dan!"

  The little **** hurried to open the cabinet and took out a small box from it.

  He held the box and ran to Zuo Ji.

  Zuo Ji took out a brown pill from the box, handed it to the emperor, and persuaded it at the same time.

   "Your Majesty, don't worry, the doctor's order has said that you must keep your peace of mind now, and don't get angry."

  After taking the medicine, the emperor felt that the pain in his heart was slightly relieved.

  He waved his hand.

   "You all retreat."

  Zuo Ji immediately retreated with everyone.

  Only the emperor and Li Ji are left in the house.

  Looking at the long jade young man in front of him, the emperor seemed to see himself when he was young.

  He sighed softly.

   "When I was young, I was just as energetic as you.

  If anyone dares to provoke me, I have to fight to the death with the other party, regardless of their identity.

  I did not suffer less for this.

  Fortunately, God's favor was good, and luckily, he was lucky enough to sit on the throne.

  But not everyone can be as lucky as mine.

  Do you understand what I mean? "

  Li Ji said: "The status of a minister is humble, and I dare not compare it with your majesty."

  Emperor: "There is no one else here. You don't need to care about your identity. Just treat me as an elder in your family."

  Li Ji: "Weichen dare not."

  The air fell into dead silence again.

  The emperor closed his eyes, and when he spoke again, his tone became severe.

   "I will ask you one last time, does the death of the prince have anything to do with you?"

  Li Ji did not answer and asked, “If the Weichen said it’s okay, would you believe it?”

  The emperor lowered his voice: "You only need to answer yes or no."

  Li Ji answered without hesitation.

"No."

  The emperor did not speak, and did not know whether he believed it or not.

  Li Ji continued.

  "Weichen did indeed kill the prince, but the Weichen did not have time to act on the prince in the future.

  If your Majesty feels that the Weichen is suspected of killing the prince, he can order the Weichen to be taken into custody. "

  The emperor felt a little pain in his heart.

  But he did not reach out to press his heart, but frowned at Li Ji, and said slowly.

   "I am willing to believe everything you say, but it is your duty to protect the prince.

  Now that the prince is murdered, this is your dereliction of duty.

  You get the twenty army sticks first, and then go back to the Zhaowang Mansion and think behind closed doors.

  Before the case of the prince’s murder is investigated, you cannot leave the palace for a step, nor can you see people outside the palace. "

  Li Ji answered calmly: "Weichen abides by the order."

  He waited for a while, and when he saw that the emperor had no other orders, he said goodbye.

  The emperor suddenly asked at this moment.

   "When you were murdering the prince, you thought he was..."

  Li Ji quietly waited for his following.

  However, after waiting for a long time, I couldn't wait for the following words.

  Finally, the emperor just waved his hand.

   "Finally, you can go."

  Li Ji arched his hands and walked out silently.

  After walking out of the Palace of Hanzhang, the sun shrouded him again, but he still did not feel the warmth.

  The unfinished sentence of the emperor just now, like a thorn, plunged into Li Ji's heart fiercely.

  Li Ji can hear the voice of others.

   Just now he clearly heard what the emperor said in his heart--

  "When you were murdering the prince, did you ever think that he was your brother?"

  Li Ji couldn't help but curled up the corners of his mouth and smiled sarcastically.

  What siblings?

   is just a bunch of bugs with dirty blood.

  What kind of blood relationship between the worms?

   is really ridiculous!

  At the entrance of Hanzhang Hall, there are already dragon riders waiting with military sticks.

  When they saw King Zhao coming, they all clasped their fists and saluted.

   "Master, please forgive me for offending my humble duty."

  Li Ji didn't say anything, turned around, turned his back in the direction of Hanzhang Hall, took off his coat, and threw it aside casually.

   "Hurry up, this king is still rushing home."

  The two flying dragon knights didn't say much, and immediately picked up the army sticks with thick forearms, and slammed them on the back of King Zhao.

  The stick hit the meat, making a heavy muffled noise.

  Wu Wang stood by and supervised.

  He felt pain just hearing this sound, but King Zhao didn't even frown.

  At the tenth time, a group of people hurried toward this side.

  Wang Wang fixed his eyes to see that it was actually the phoenix that the empress was riding on!

  He hurried forward to meet him, respectfully.

   "The slave-maid pays respects to the empress."

  The emperor was sitting in the car, her face was a little pale, her eyes were red, as if she had just cried.

  She ignored Wu Wang and looked straight at King Zhao.

  At this time, Flying Dragon Knight has hit the thirteenth.

   Wu Wang hurriedly explained when he saw this.

   "The king Zhao committed the crime of negligence because he failed to protect the prince, and the saint ordered him to be held accountable for twenty."

  The queen chuckled, her tone full of mockery.

   "The only son in this palace is gone, but the saint only fines him with a rod of twenty, which is too tolerant."

  Wu Wang didn't dare to answer the conversation, so he lowered his head hurriedly, pretending that he didn't hear anything.

  The queen stood up, and slowly got out of the car with the help of the court lady.

  She walked slowly in front of King Zhao.

  At this time, Li Ji had been hit to the nineteenth club, and only the last club remained.

  The clothes on his back have bleeding stains, and his brows are slightly frowned, but his body is still standing upright, like a sharp spear upright, no one can make him bend his waist.

  The queen said: "Stop."

  The two dragon riders stopped immediately and looked at the queen together.

  The queen looked up and down Zhaowang, her gaze seemed light and flirty, but it was poisoned, with a vicious meaning.

   "The son of the palace died tragically under the bandit, but you came back safe and sound. Even your legs have recovered."

  Li Ji's back is already bright red, but his expression is still calm and calm: "This can only show that I should never die."

  The queen pressed: "Does the son of this palace deserve to die?"

  Li Ji: "The prince's death has nothing to do with me. Even if you get angry at me, it's useless."

  The queen sneered, completely unbelieving.

Before Li Cheng left Beijing, she saw that her son wanted to do something against King Zhao.

  She tried her best to dissuade her, but Li Cheng agreed at that time and said she would not mess around.

   But with her understanding of her son, Li Cheng may not be able to do it.
