C205 Counterattack (17)

In the Hongfu Building.

"Didn't I tell you guys that you would listen to my commands? Why did you secretly place explosives on the altar? Did you know that the explosives detonated ahead of time and destroyed the entire altar? " Xuanyuan Qingtian rebuked angrily.

"Wait, wait. Your Highness, we actually agreed to follow your plan, then we naturally wouldn't do such a useless thing. How could we have done such a useless thing!" The man in black said unhurriedly.

"It's really not you guys?" Xuanyuan Qingtian asked suspiciously, his eyes full of distrust.

"What kind of expression is that, your highness? As a man, I will never admit what I did, even if I didn't do it." The man in black said.

Seeing that the black clothed man spoke so righteously and with such certainty, Xuanyuan Qingtian guessed that it was not done by them.

"Who could it be?" Xuanyuan Qingtian asked doubtfully.

"Looks like there are people who can't wait to make their move. Your Highness, you have to be careful. " The black clothed man reminded.

Ever since Magistrate of the Supreme Court accepted the case, she did not dare to relax even for a second and had been reviewing the case ever since. After many days of Magistrate of the Supreme Court capturing, torturing, and interrogating, they finally found out the truth.

In the imperial court.

"Your Majesty, the explosion of the altar two days ago, His Majesty sent it to the Magistrate of the Supreme Court to investigate. "But …" Magistrate of the Supreme Court wanted to say something but hesitated.

"Whatever you want to say, just say it." Xuanyuan Mo said.

"Your Majesty, this matter involves a lot of things. This humble subject is afraid …"

"If I tell you to say it, just say it. What are you afraid of? With me blocking for you, can it be that there's someone who wants to harm you?" "Speak." Xuanyuan Mo roared.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Magistrate of the Supreme Court Lord Chen said, "After this subject's great examination, this humble subject has found out that this explosive was done by a little eunuch who was working on the altar. According to the tone of the little eunuch, the little eunuch revealed that this was done secretly by the crown prince and wanted to blow His Majesty to death on the day of the Rites of Heavenly Worship and at the same time shift this matter to His Majesty the Battle-King."

When the Magistrate of the Supreme Court said this, all the officials were shocked. It was actually the crown prince who did this. Of course, the one who was the most shocked was Xuanyuan Qingtian. He finally understood that it had to be Xuanyuan Zhan. He must have wanted to seize his position as the crown prince, which was why he wanted to frame him.

"Father, this matter really wasn't done by your son. Your son didn't do it, so someone framed your son. royal father. " Xuanyuan Qingtian anxiously tried to explain.

"You said that you're innocent. Don't tell me that all our Magistrate of the Supreme Court are useless people?" Xuanyuan Mo was so angry that his entire body was trembling.

"Father, you must believe in this son. This son truly does not have one." Xuanyuan Qingtian hurriedly tried to defend himself, "It's him. Royal father, it must be him. Xuanyuan Qingtian pointed his spear at Xuanyuan Zhan and said.

Although Xuanyuan Zhan looked like he did not do anything angry on the outside, he was actually at the top of the plan. He had secretly schemed against Xuanyuan Qingtian and the rest. Now that the Crown Prince had pointed it out to confront him, there was naturally nothing to be afraid of.

Xuanyuan Zhan watched indifferently as Xuanyuan Qingtian pointed the spear at him, not saying a word.

"Battle-King, if the Crown Prince wants to confront you face to face, do you have anything to say?" Xuanyuan Mo said as he looked at Xuanyuan Zhan.

"Reporting to royal father, this son does not need to explain anything. Royal father has seen the way this son has been coming here today, and this son has been accompanying Dou Dou around the Wanluo Palace everyday. royal father knows about this, after leaving the palace, this son is at home. There have been no visitors to this house for the past few days, not to mention that this son has always been thanking guests behind closed doors and accompanied matriarch by his side. How could I possibly have the time to do other things? "

How could Xuanyuan Mo not know that Xuanyuan Zhan was telling the truth? He already knew what Xuanyuan Zhan was doing these past few days, and he had watched it all happen. He had originally wanted to leave the matter of the Rites of Heavenly Worship to the crown prince. Give the crown prince another chance. Who would have thought that his painstaking efforts would be disappointed by the crown prince?

Xuanyuan Mo was very disappointed with Xuanyuan Qingtian, "Servant, the Crown Prince is plotting against you, offending your superiors, committing treason and committing treason, send him to the clan's people's residence." Xuanyuan Mo said.

"No, royal father, this son really hasn't, it must be Xuanyuan Zhan. This son hasn't made a move yet, this son hasn't even done anything yet." Xuanyuan Qingtian accidentally blurted it out in a moment of panic.

Xuanyuan Mo looked at him in disbelief and asked, "So you really wanted to kill us and take us away?"

Xuanyuan Qingtian was shocked, "No, royal father and son don't, it's not like that."

"Someone, drag down this unfilial son of mine!"

"Yes sir!"

Xuanyuan Qingtian's eyes turned red, "Xuanyuan Zhan, if I knew earlier, I would have let you die at the border! I'll kill you just like I killed Second Bro back then! "You want to fight for the position of crown prince with me, right …" Xuanyuan Qingtian said hysterically, his mouth open wide as he recounted everything that happened in the past.

"Let him go!" As Xuanyuan Mo said this, he lost control of himself and walked down from the throne, looking down at Xuanyuan Qingtian condescendingly. As it turns out, not only did the crown prince himself want to harm his own father, he also didn't want to let go of his own brother for a long time now. So it was you who did the death of number two. I thought it was just an accident, but it turns out you were so vicious. You... "Cough, cough, cough."

"Your Majesty, Imperial Father …" In the midst of his panic, Xuanyuan Mo's anger reached his heart and he spat out a mouthful of blood before fainting.

"Someone, suppress the crown prince. Wait for royal father to wake up before making his decision." Xuanyuan Zhan ordered.

"Yes sir!"

After a moment, they hurriedly brought Xuanyuan Qingtian back to the sect people's residences, and then carried him back to his room.

On the dragon bed, Xuanyuan Mo slowly woke up. However, he found that Xuanyuan Zhan was alone, standing guard by his side. Sigh! This son of his had caused him too much shame, but he had never thought that in the end, he was the only one accompanying him.

Although all of the things that Xuanyuan Qingtian had done were matters and he had merely allowed royal father to see his true side, in the end, it was all part of his own scheme and caused Xuanyuan Mo's fury to surge, causing him to vomit blood. Thus, he still felt guilty in his heart.

"Father." Seeing Xuanyuan Mo slowly awaken, Xuanyuan Zhan walked forward to help him up, and handed the medicine in his hands over to him. Xuanyuan Mo drank the medicine handed over by Xuanyuan Zhan, and some of them laid back down.

"Battle-King, you can go down first. I want to be alone." Xuanyuan Mo seemed to have aged a lot at that moment.

"Yes." This son shall take his leave. royal father, you rest well. " Xuanyuan Zhan turned and left.

After expelling all the palace maids, Xuanyuan Mo silently laid on his bed and thought of Xuanyuan Qingtian. This son of his was his son that he had raised up in his palms since he was young. He had inherited his expectations, but he had never expected that his beloved son would actually do such a thing.

When he thought about his second son, he remembered that he had a gentle, refined and sweet smile. He had also liked his son a lot, but he had never thought that his love for his second son had actually become a panic in Xuanyuan Qingtian's heart, causing him to ignore the feelings of brotherhood and kill that gentle and refined child.

Ever since he was young, the reason why I have loved that child Second Brother is because he has a scholarly aura. It is because Second Brother did not have much desire for the throne that I was able to treat him well. Sigh ~ Xuanyuan Mo felt a wave of sadness in his heart. Closing his eyes, he fell asleep just like that.

In the Battle King Manor.

When Feng Yu heard about what happened today in the palace, he was extremely perturbed and anxiously waited for Xuanyuan Zhan to return. Until she saw Xuanyuan Zhan standing in front of him, completely unharmed, he could finally relax a little bit.

Seeing Feng Yu anxiously waiting for him in front of the door, Xuanyuan Zhan's heart was filled with warmth.

"Let's go back." Xuanyuan Zhan said as he held Feng Yu's hand.

"Do you know how dangerous it is for you to do this?" Feng Yu asked worriedly, as her fist landed on Xuanyuan Zhan's chest. Feng Yu's strength was not too great, so a punch on Xuanyuan Zhan's chest felt like he was smashed on cotton, and had no weight. Although she knew that Feng Yu was angry at him, Xuanyuan Zhan's heart still felt warm.

Inside Yan Fei's chamber.

When Yan Fei heard the news from the palace, he was shocked. No, my Tian Er would not do such a thing. " "I need to ask His Majesty. He can't treat my Tian Er like this, he can't."

"Empress. His Majesty has instructed me that without His Majesty's orders, you are not allowed to leave the chambers. " A palace maid bravely said.

"Scram!" Hearing the palace maid say such words, the women in Yan Fei's heart piled up, pushed aside the young palace maid and ran out the door.

Outside the emperor's bedroom.

"Yan Feifei, how could you leave the palace without permission?" Outside the palace gates, the Yan Fei was stopped by two guards. The emperor's chambers were just around the corner, but no matter what, he couldn't get through. Yan Fei felt bitter in his heart.

"Your Majesty, I wish to see you." Yan Fei stood outside the door and said loudly.

"His Majesty had said that he would not meet anyone. Yan Feifei, you should leave quickly. If His Majesty sees you leaving the palace without permission, he will punish you. " The guard said. However, it was true that his heart was extremely uneasy. If this unfavoured Empress were to enter, it would be hard to avoid His Majesty's wrath.
