Chapter 106: If you lose, you have to admit it!
Hearing the old king's words, Shang Xiaomin's heart skipped a beat, and a trace of panic flashed across his face.
Although he was trying his best to maintain calm, his hands tightly grasped the armrests of the chair with such force that his joints turned white.
At this moment, he regretted letting Cheng Shengxuan wear the clothes of the palace guard.
I even regretted letting Cheng Shengxuan come with me.
This was really not a subtle change of mood, but it was not hidden from the second prince who had been staring at him.
Shang Xiaohui sneered in his heart.
So nervous?
There must be something wrong with this person!
He stared at Cheng Shengxuan closely and continued to attack.
"Why, you don't dare to take off the mask, is there something wrong in your heart?"
"Oh, I see, isn't it difficult to take it off?"
"Here, go help him! "
The guard beside him heard this and walked towards him.
Cheng Shengxuan sighed, his tone helpless.
"It seems that the second prince has a scar that must be revealed."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and slowly took off his mask.
"Don't..."
Shang Xiaomin's eyes widened, staring at his movements, and his whole body tensed up.
The next moment, he breathed a sigh of relief.
As the mask was slowly taken off, an ordinary face, with the left side burnt and pitted, was exposed in front of everyone.
"Hiss!"
"Ah——"
When a timid palace maid saw his face, she covered her mouth in fear and exclaimed.
Taking everyone's reactions into consideration, Cheng Shengxuan raised his hand and touched the ferocious left side of his face.
I have to say that the human skin masks made by Ange are quite lifelike.
At the same time, I was glad in my heart. Fortunately, I just hung up the phone. It would be terrible if An Luo saw this face.
“That’s not right!”
“It shouldn’t be like this!”
The second prince stood up suddenly, with a look of disbelief on his face.
If there is no problem, why is Lao Wu so nervous? !
Shang Xiaomin sat upright again.
"Second brother, the guards in my mansion have taken off their masks as you wished, what else do you want?"
"After all, I have saved you, is it too much for my second brother to force me like this?" "
Shang Xiaohui looked at him and asked, with anger in his tone.
"I'm being cautious, what's wrong?!"
"Presumptuous!"
The old king suddenly slapped the table hard.
glaring at the little eunuch who had just lost his composure.
“You are so unbecoming of an emperor, how brave you are! How can a meritorious person be laughed at by a servant like you?!”
He gave the head eunuch a look.
"Hurry up and drag this bitch out!"
The little eunuch hurriedly knelt on the ground, bang bang bang, and kowtowed several times.
"The Lord has mercy on me, I'm not a slave. The slave didn't smile. Lord, please spare my life!"
But the next moment, he was covered by the Forbidden Army and dragged down.
Seeing this scene, the two brothers who had been arguing just now suddenly became quiet.
The second prince looked livid, gritted his teeth, and sat back on the chair.
Of course he knew that his father was punishing the little eunuch on the surface, but in fact he was punishing himself.
He was too impatient.
Although the guard was suspicious, in front of everyone, it was true that he saved the father. He kept holding on to him, which was also a slap in the father's face.
The most important thing is that the father also had doubts, so he acquiesced to his aggressiveness.
But now that people take off their masks, there is really no problem.
Father is warning him that he has lost this round and he has to admit it!
The second prince looked at Cheng Shengxuan standing in the center with a gloomy expression, and then glared at Shang Xiaomin.
This time I’m giving you an advantage!
The old king held his forehead with one hand and leaned back on the chair again.
“What’s your name?”
Cheng Shengxuan lowered his head slightly,
“My subordinate Qiu Shen.”
“Qiu? It’s not a common one. Last name." The old king waved his hand.
“The guards in the Fifth Prince’s Mansion are rewarded with thousands of taels of gold, ten pieces of silk and satin, and a precious sword for their meritorious service in rescuing the driver.”
“Thank you, Lord.”
At this time, Two imperial guards escorted a palace maid outside the tent.
“To the Lord of the Kingdom, Xiao Xiao was ordered to go to find Concubine Xue’s personal maid, but found that this woman was sneaky and had a lot of jewelry and silver notes in her bag, trying to escape!
The palace maid hurriedly knelt on the ground.
"My Lord, spare your life, it was not the slave who did it. What happened to the little tiger really has nothing to do with the slave!"
She was really afraid of the little tiger.
The old king leaned forward slightly.
“What’s going on?!”
The palace maid trembled and spoke.
"It was Concubine Xue who found the tiger cub on the edge of the camp. The slave thought it was a kitten, so she took it back to take care of it."
I heard her mention Concubine Xue. There was a hint of impatience on the old ruler's face.
Hmph!
That vicious woman!
How much he loved her once, now he hates her so much.
After hearing this, and thinking of what Qingmu said before, Shang Xiaomin turned his eyes and glanced meaningfully in the direction of Shang Xiaohui.
"How could Concubine Xue go to the outskirts of the camp for no reason?"
Hearing this, the second prince's eyes dodge a little, and he lowered his head and remained silent.
“My slave, I don’t know.”
The maid bowed her head deeper.
Seeing her like this, Shang Xiaomin narrowed his eyes, with an inexplicable hint of threat in his tone.
"Really?"
"This matter is of great importance. If you don't report the knowledge, it is a serious crime of deceiving the emperor. How many heads do you have enough to chop off?!"
This The words made the maid tremble when she heard them, and she struggled to break away and pull her guards away.
"Wait a minute!"
"Slave, I have remembered!"
"Slave vaguely saw that the empress was talking to a man in purple. The two behaved intimately, but they said something, The servant really doesn’t know.”
“The man in purple?”
Shang Xiaomin glanced at the second prince with a half-smile.
"But what color is my second brother wearing?"
The maid looked up, quickly lowered her head, and stumbled.
"Indeed, it's a bit like it."
The second prince immediately patted the armrest of the chair and stood up.
“Lao Wu, what did you mean by what you just said?!”
Shang Xiaomin looked innocent.
"Second brother, don't worry, I'm just asking casually."
Shang Xiaohui gritted his teeth and stared at him.
Damn it!
I wanted to take the opportunity to drag Lao Wu into the water, but unexpectedly, he actually defeated an entire army by him!
Damn it, why did the maid see it? !
The old king looked unclear and lowered his eyes in deep thought.
Suddenly in my mind, on the high platform, Xue Fei's expression of joy when she heard that the second son had won, and her unabashed worry when her second son was injured...
< br>He looked stern and his eyes showed murderous intent.
“Come here, drag this bastard slave girl down and chop her down!”
"As for the second child, if you don't do things well, I will fine you a year's salary. Leave the affairs here to the fifth child, and you don't have to worry about it. Go back to the house and think about your mistakes behind closed doors. Without my will, you are not allowed to step out of the house!"
The second prince reluctantly bowed his head in response.
"My son obeys the order."
The old king rubbed his head with one hand and raised his hand to wave to everyone.
“I’m tired, everyone, please go out.”
The huge crowd left, and the tent instantly became quiet.
The old king was leaning on the large seat, his tired and old face darkened, and a violent storm was brewing in his eyes.
"My two sons, none of them can save fuel."
"If it weren't just the two of them..."
Later, the old king Not spoken out.
The chief eunuch who was waiting on the side lowered his head deeply, pretending not to hear, and even less daring to answer.
It’s terrible!
How can a slave like him listen to this?
But having said that, it seems that the king is not satisfied with both the second and fifth princes?
