At the beginning, the little prince Beili and his mother were crazy about each other.

The emperor was very angry.

"Your Majesty has arrived!"

Just as Xiao Jingxia was complaining, he suddenly heard a voice coming from outside the house.

He immediately winked at the five people, and the five people understood and groaned in pain on the bed.

Xiao Jingxia was ruthless and used his fingers to open the blood marks on his face caused by Xiao Ruolin's sword energy, and blood seeped out instantly.

Wu Yong saw this scene, and he couldn't say anything in the face of Xiao Jingxia's self-mutilation.

But he made a decision in his heart, that is, no matter what happens in the future, he must not provoke the Ninth Prince.

As soon as Emperor Mingde stepped into the inner courtyard, he heard the wailing of several people.

He stopped and snorted, "It's really difficult for them. They can make such a powerful voice, so they must be seriously injured."

Jin Xuan lowered his head and responded, "Maybe they are really seriously injured. Your Majesty, why don't we go in and take a look first?"

"I want to see how badly an eight-year-old child can hurt them!"

After speaking, Emperor Mingde took a big step and walked inside.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Old Nine, who was pale, bloodless lips, and full of scars on his face.

"Father..." Xiao Jingxia said weakly.

After seeing Emperor Mingde, the other five people immediately stopped wailing and knelt on the ground respectfully and said, "Your Majesty!"

Emperor Mingde waved his hand, then walked to Xiao Jingxia and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"

Xiao Jingxia felt warm in his heart and coughed twice. The handkerchief that covered his saliva was stained with some blood.

He deliberately unfolded the handkerchief to let Emperor Mingde see the blood on it clearly.

Emperor Mingde was indifferent to this, as if he hadn't seen it.

Xiao Jingxia showed a relieved smile on his face again, and said: "Father, I am fine now, but I heard that my thirteenth brother was taken to the Dali Temple. I dare to ask for my thirteenth brother to reduce his punishment because he is still young and ignorant."

"But the injuries on your body are all caused by him. How can I let him off easily when he is disrespectful to his elders and lawless?" Emperor Mingde pretended to be angry.

Xiao Jingxia supported himself and leaned against the head of the bed, covering his chest with his right hand, and said with a look of grief: "Father, although all my injuries are caused by my thirteenth brother, I don't blame him. Who made me his ninth brother?"

Then he sighed again: "I should explain it clearly to my thirteenth brother. After all, he has not had sex yet, and it is normal for him not to know these things. It's all my fault that I made it difficult for you."

Xiao Jingxia looked self-blaming, and the five people beside him were stunned.

This was the first time they saw the Ninth Prince's acting skills. If they had such acting skills, wouldn't they have fooled their old man to the point of leaving nothing behind?

"I'm sorry for your wronged you." Emperor Mingde patted Xiao Jingxia's back, and a stream of true energy in his palm slowly seeped into his body.

"Father, this is what I should do." Xiao Jingxia smiled slightly.

He thought he was disguised very well, but in the eyes of Emperor Mingde, all this was full of flaws.

Several people had been sent to the Imperial Hospital for a long time. It stands to reason that the imperial physicians had already treated their wounds, but the scars on the face of the Ninth Prince were somewhat conspicuous.

But he did not point it out, but silently retracted his palm and winked at Jin Xuan.

Jin Xuan nodded, then stretched out his hand to the five dudes, and said with a smile: "Please, everyone!"

Facing the smiling face of Eunuch Jin Xuan, the five dudes trembled and felt cold on their backs.

No matter how stupid they were, they knew that the other party was ordering them to leave.

The few people did not dare to delay, and fled after respectfully bidding farewell to Emperor Mingde.

Jin Xuan could not help but sneer, thinking in his heart that these playboys were not too stupid.

He bowed his head slightly, then left the room, and closed the door before leaving.

Facing the empty room, Xiao Jingxia inexplicably felt a little uneasy.

At this time, Emperor Mingde slowly stood up: "Old Nine, my father has a doubt, I hope you can help my father solve it."

"Father, please speak." Xiao Jingxia responded immediately.

"Why did Xiao Shisan appear outside the palace, and why did he happen to run into you, and finally happened to have a conflict with you, don't you think that all this is too coincidental?" Emperor Mingde frowned slightly.

"Yes, this is indeed too coincidental, but I heard that Thirteenth Brother likes to run outside the palace, maybe this is also a reason." Xiao Jingxia smiled.

It was almost winter, but he felt that his body was secreting sweat and was sweating profusely.

"Do you think someone deliberately lured him over to provoke a fight between you two?" Emperor Mingde continued.

Xiao Jing

Xia quickly denied it: "How is it possible? Looking at the whole world, who dares to make trouble in Tianqi City? I'm afraid he doesn't want to live."

"Is it really like this..." Emperor Mingde stared at Jiuzi.

For some reason, Xiao Jingxia always felt like he was seen through.

He almost gritted his teeth and answered: "Father is too suspicious."

Emperor Mingde shook his head, his face became deep, and his eyes could not see what he was thinking.

After Xiao Jingxia said that, his momentum changed, and he became like a stone lion, majestic without anger.

"Old Nine, do you know why only the second, sixth, and seventh sons of my thirteen children were crowned kings?" Emperor Mingde said lightly, his tone was particularly cold.

"I don't know." Xiao Jingxia shook his head quickly, but he felt inexplicably panicked.

Emperor Mingde's eyes fixed, and he spoke slowly: "The second son Chong'er, was gifted since childhood, diligent and studious. A serious illness took away his eyes, but he still stood firm in the white clothes, staying in the court without being stained by dust, not knowing the people in front of him but knowing the world's affairs."

"The sixth son Chuhe, a man like a jade forest, a person like a jade flower, knowing the ways of the world but not being worldly, aloof but warm-hearted, and full of heroic spirit. In the entire Xiao royal family, only the King of Langya can be compared."

"The seventh son Yu'er, everyone knows that he is famous "You are a playboy, but do you know why I made him king?"

Faced with his father's series of words, Xiao Jingxia racked his brains but couldn't understand what his father wanted to say, so he answered again: "I don't know."

Emperor Mingde explained: "Because he knows how to disguise, does things without reservation, does not leave himself any loopholes, and can kill with one move."

"I will learn from my three brothers, and one day I will be the pride of my father." Xiao Jingxia smiled.

Emperor Mingde shook his head: "They have a common characteristic that you will never learn."

Xiao Jingxia was a little unconvinced.

However, the next second, Emperor Mingde's eyes shocked him.

"They will not be as stupid as you!" Emperor Mingde shouted angrily, his eyes full of disappointment.

At the same time, in the prison of Dali Temple.

Shen Xiduo looked serious, looking at Xiao Ruolin who was bound by shackles in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "Thirteenth little prince, you have the right to remain silent, but everything you say will be used as evidence in court!"

Facing that serious face, Xiao Ruolin couldn't help laughing: "I have remained silent, where can you find evidence in court? And His Highness is His Highness, why add a little?"

Shen Xiduo slammed the table and glared: "Thirteenth prince, this is the Dali Temple, not a place where you can act wild. If you continue to disobey, I will torture you!"

As soon as these words came out, several Shaoqings behind him were ferocious and immediately showed the torture instruments to scare Xiao Ruolin.

"Qiaodou sack!" Xiao Ruolin shouted.

Faced with unfamiliar words, Shen Xiduo was confused, he turned around: "Sack? Where is the sack."

"Sir Shen, in this Tianqi City, how should this attempted rape be sentenced?" Xiao Ruolin smiled slightly.

Hearing the word "rape", Shen Xiduo, who hated evil most on weekdays, slammed the table again and said angrily: "Shen hates rapists the most in his life. Anyone who commits rape should be cut off and fed to wild dogs! Finally, he will be killed!"

"Sir, the law doesn't seem to stipulate that rapists should be sentenced to death? And the Dali Temple doesn't seem to care about such cases." A young Shaoqing behind him said.

"Huh?" Shen Xiduo turned around and pulled the Shaoqing's collar: "New here? Are you trying to ruin my reputation?"

The other Shaoqings retreated one after another, fearing that they would displease Shen Yanwang.

But the newcomer took out the law book from his arms, turned to a certain page, and said honestly: "Sir, look, it really doesn't say it here."

Shen Xiduo slapped his law book away and roared: "I have the final say in the Dali Temple. Even if the emperor comes, I can ignore him. How dare you ruin my reputation?"
