Waste prince: Why do you force me to be emperor?

Sima Jian's eyes were full of surprise: "Mei'er, you have made a breakthrough!"

Sima Mei looked arrogant: "Yes, father, I have finally broken through and entered that realm!"

"You can rest assured and let me protect Xiaolan!"

Sima Jian stared: "Nonsense!"

"Although the emperor hasn't issued a decree to marry you and the prince, everyone knows that the prince is eager to ask you to marry him, and he is constantly promoting this matter!"

"Of course the ministers who are attached to the East Palace are happy to see it succeed, and have been contributing to this."

"Therefore, eight or nine are inseparable, the emperor is about to issue a marriage decree!"

"Humph......"

A murderous look flashed across Sima Meifeng's eyes: "Everyone knows that the crown prince is lustful, because he likes my second sister and I's looks, and he also dragged my Sima family into his chariot to help him consolidate the position of crown prince."

"We are just a tool for him to fight for the throne."

"Father, do you really like him?"

Sima Jian had no expression on his face: "Do you think you have a choice as a father?"

Sima Mei's eyes brightened: "Daughter understands!"

Done.

Sima Mei turned around and walked out of the study, and said back: "Father is a minister of their Xia family, so you have no choice, but daughter has!"

"If there is a mistake, it is my daughter's fault and has nothing to do with the Sima family!"

Sima Jian stared at his daughter's back disappearing in a daze, and then a gratified smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "If you and Lan'er are men, everyone in this world can compete for it!"

"Never mind!"

"Blank paper, order the hidden guard not to stop the young miss from leaving home."

"Yes!"

The roof responded.

"Order the hidden guard to protect the safety of the eldest lady!"

"Yes!"

Only then did Sima Jian murmur: "Mei'er, after you go, do you want to seek freedom like your sister?"

The wind and snow started outside the door, as if answering the question of the prime minister of the empire.

Unfortunately, the wind language is difficult to understand.

Soon after.

The butler of Xiangfu ran into the study in a panic, and handed over a piece of paper: "Master, it's not good! Missy ran away from home!"

Sima Jian opened the white paper, on which was written: The world is so big, I want to go out and have a look, unfilial daughter, Sima Mei!

The expression on Sima Jian's face was difficult to understand, and he raised his eyelids: "Don't panic!"

"Spread this note and the fact that the young lady ran away from home to the entire imperial capital!"

The housekeeper's eyes lit up, he calmed down, and exited the study respectfully: "Yes!"

"Within an hour, it will be spread all over the imperial capital!"

......

In the palace, the imperial study.

A small stove is placed in the middle of the study, with hot water burning on it, dispelling the cold in the room.

Emperor Xia finished approving the memorial, put down his pen, looked at the door of the study and asked, "Old man, is there a letter from Xiaojiu?"

The old eunuch quickly replied: "Your Majesty, perhaps due to the wind and snow, Prince Huang's convoy traveled not far yesterday. They lived in Taohuawu outside the imperial capital last night. Great Barren State."

"Oh?"

Xia Di was full of doubts: "Did nothing happen in Taohuawu Castle last night?"

suddenly.

"Pfft..."

The old eunuch pleaded guilty on his knees: "Your Majesty, this old slave is incompetent, please punish me!"

Emperor Xia raised his eyelids: "Let's listen first."

"Yes!"

The old eunuch knelt on the ground and said: "Yesterday morning, when Prince Huang went out of the city to receive the wounded soldiers given by the prince, the old slave sent the spies of the Imperial City Division to follow him all the way, but when he followed in front of the city gate, the spies of the Imperial City Division were actually killed by someone. Unknowingly knocked out!"

"Last night, another spy from the imperial city spied outside Taohuawu Fort, but they were all silenced!"

"So, I don't know what happened in Taohuawu Castle last night!"

"This morning, another group of spies entered Wubao after the Prince Huang was on the road, and found hundreds of black-clothed killers' corpses hanging in the attic of Wubao. They were covered in scars and were no longer humanlike!"

"The Imperial City Division has found out that the worst of the hundred black-clothed killers are all third-rate fighters, and they are all famous and vicious killers in the Jianghu. Now they are all the prince's people."

"According to Huang Chengsi's speculation, the prince's men failed to attack last night, and were killed by the desolate prince!"

"what?"

Emperor Xia was a little surprised: "Xiao Jiu led a hundred wounded soldiers and killed a hundred warrior killers?"

The old eunuch said affirmatively: "Prince Huang and the convoy that set out today were not damaged at all, and all the prince's people died in Wubao. Therefore, the old slave guarantees with the head of the project that the prince lost."

Xia Di's eyes were full of doubts: "How did Xiao Jiu do it?"

The old eunuch shook his head: "The spies of the Imperial City Division were killed, and this old slave doesn't even know!"

suddenly.

Two strands of cold light shot out from Emperor Xia's eyes: "The crown prince dared to kill the spies of the Imperial City Department and make me lose my eyes and ears, what a brave man!"

The old eunuch was stunned: "Your Majesty, there is no evidence that these two incidents were done by the prince!"

"Humph......"

Emperor Xia snorted coldly, and interrupted the old eunuch's words: "The crown prince is yin and yang, and dispatched a hundred wounded soldiers to Xiaojiu. He didn't want the world and I to know, so he sent someone to beat the imperial city secretary unconscious at the gate of the city." Spy!"

"In Taohuawu Castle, in order to attack and kill Xiao Jiu, the prince naturally wanted to eliminate the surrounding spies, so he once again attacked the spies of the Imperial City Division!"

"Prince, even the people of the Imperial City Division dare to move now, it's really lawless!"

The old eunuch blinked, and tentatively said: "Your Majesty, do you want to send the crown prince to come to the imperial study to defend?"

Emperor Xia shook his head: "No need!"

"It was my oral order that the prince's ineffective handling of the snow disaster recently caused countless people in the northern part of the empire to freeze to death. Immediately shut the door at home and ponder over the mistakes, and think about the way to deal with the snow disaster. Without my order, he is not allowed to go out of the East Palace."

"Yes!"

The old eunuch understands!

Regardless of whether the two things were done by the prince, the emperor decided to beat the prince.

Ineffective control of snow disasters is the reason for beating.

If you want to add a crime, why worry!

but.

The old eunuch couldn't figure it out... Didn't the emperor want to use the crown prince's hand to kill Prince Huang?

Why is the prince grounded at this critical moment?

Emperor Xin, it's really hard to guess!

"Old man, is there anything else to report?"

The old eunuch thought for a while: "Your Majesty, there is another strange thing. Sima Mei, the daughter-in-law of Prime Minister Sima's family, ran away from home!"

"He said he wanted to go out and see the world!"

The corner of Emperor Xia's mouth curled up with a trace of unfathomable meaning: "Interesting!"

"Sima Jian, this old fox, what exactly do you want to do?"

"Old man, rearrange the masters of the Imperial City Department to watch Xiao Jiu and his party, and report in time if there is any situation!"

"Yes!"

The old eunuch hurriedly got up and left.

Only then did Emperor Xia mutter to himself: "It looks like some big fish have already taken the bait!"

"Bait, you can't die now!"

......

Prince's Mansion.

The prince was frantically smashing all kinds of expensive decorations in the hall, and roared ferociously: "Say, how could it happen that a hundred martial arts killers were killed by a hundred wounded soldiers?"

"You said everything is safe?"

"Come out and tell the prince what happened in Taohuawu Castle yesterday?"

"Does he know magic in Xia Tian?"

"Great Sage Envoy, if you cannot give me a satisfactory explanation, I will strip you naked here!"

"come out......"

At this time.

An extremely irritating figure appeared in the hall, and said slowly: "His Royal Highness, calm down, last night's raid was arranged hastily, so it failed!"

"Now, I have laid a net on the only way that the Prince of Desolation must pass. This time, he is doomed!"

The prince asked viciously: "What if it still fails?"

The hot figure said firmly: "I will give my body to the prince!"

"This time, we will win!"

"Believe me!"
