    "Chen Shubao, look at you. You don't look like the crown prince of a country. As a prince, you idle around all day and don't do your job. Instead, you fight with others over a woman. How can you behave like this?"

    At this time, Chen Shubao had disheveled hair, disheveled clothes, and even some black spots at the corners of his eyes. He looked like a gangster after a fight in the market. There was no majesty of a prince. Chen Xu became angrier and more disappointed as he looked at it.

    "What kind of woman is it that makes you so obsessed with it that you lose your mind and don't care about the overall situation? I want to meet her." Chen Xu snorted coldly and shouted loudly: "Come on, take that woman  Bring along all those who injured Zhou envoys."

    Following Chen Xu¡¯s order, it didn¡¯t take long for chaotic footsteps to sound from outside the palace. Then a woman in white with her head lowered and a middle-aged man in green were escorted by a group of warriors into the palace.

    "Kneel down."

    Under the rough push of the warrior, the woman in white and the old man in green suddenly staggered to their knees. The former couldn't help but let out a low cry, his voice as clear and sweet as pearls.

    Chen Shuling couldn't help but let out a sigh. For some reason, this woman's figure looked familiar to him, and her voice also sounded familiar.

    Chen Xu looked solemnly at the two people kneeling in the hall, and said with sullenness in his cold voice: "What a wretched maid, raise your head and let me see what you are capable of, to make the prince so fascinated.  Get carried away."

    "Yes, Your Majesty." She responded timidly, and then the woman in white slowly raised her head, revealing her pretty face hidden under her hair.

    This woman in white has exquisite facial features and no flaws, her skin is as white and delicate as gelatin, and her figure is slender and graceful. Although she looks a little anxious at this time, there is still a touch of cold pride and elegance between her eyebrows. Paired with a white skirt, she looks  Like the snow lotuses swaying in the wind on the snow-capped peaks, they are graceful and independent.

    "Snow lotus,."

    When he saw the face of the woman in white, Chen Shuling's eyes widened in shock, and he even couldn't help but cry out, why did Xuelian go to the Prince's East Palace? Is she really Xuelian?

    When Chen Xu saw the face of the woman in white clearly, he was stunned for a moment, but he only came to his senses for a moment, and sneered: "She has a charming face, no wonder it can confuse all living beings. Since the disaster happened because of you, then  It ends with you. From now on, you are the slave of Li Yuan, the envoy of the Zhou Kingdom, and he has the final say in life and death."

    "Wait a minute." Before Chen Xu finished speaking, Chen Shubao suddenly raised his head and said dissatisfiedly: "Father, Xuelian is originally a son of my son. Li Yuan does not know the inferiority of others, and his words and deeds are shameless. He has repeatedly spoken rudely to his son. He despises our country so much.  It¡¯s fine if my father didn¡¯t drive him out of Jiankang, but now why did he reward him with snow lotus? Doesn¡¯t this make people think that I, Chen, are afraid of him, the Kingdom of Zhou?¡±

    "Shut up." Chen Xu was furious and scolded: "You are so ignorant. Even if the people of Zhou were rude first, you can tell me that you are the one who asked you to take action without permission. Now the Qi State has strong soldiers and horses, which is the largest country in our country."  Enemy, the envoys of the State of Zhou are here just to discuss the plan of conquering Qi. If you cause us to be at odds with the State of Zhou for the sake of a woman, you will be truly unforgivable."

    Before Chen Shubao could argue, Chen Xu shouted angrily: "Ling'er, send this woman to the Zhou Dynasty envoy, and then ask the imperial doctor to diagnose and treat his injury."

    "Your Majesty, I am Xue Lian, save me." Just when Chen Shuling was still a little dazed, the woman in white suddenly looked at him, her pear blossoms were wet with rain, and she cried sadly,

    Hearing this, both Chen Xu and Chen Shubao were stunned. They looked at Chen Shuling with wide eyes. Chen Shubao frowned and said worriedly: "Xuelian, what's wrong with you."

    However, Xuelian didn't even look at him. She looked straight at Chen Shuling with hazy tearful eyes and cried bitterly: "Your Majesty, Xuelian has done all the things you asked Xuelian to do. I just want to accompany the prince and guard him. I don't want to  Go and serve that pervert Li Yuan, Your Majesty, please save me and don¡¯t abandon Xuelian, Your Majesty."

    Xuelian looked so pitiful at this time, and her sad and helpless words made people feel even more sympathetic.

    "Ling'er, what on earth is going on?" Chen Xu frowned like a monk two feet tall, his eyes flashed coldly as he looked at Chen Shuling, who was at a loss.

    "My son and I don't know either."

    "I don't know." Chen Xu was very dissatisfied with Chen Shuling's answer. His voice could not help but rise a little higher. His face was as sinking as water. He looked at Xuelian majestically and said, "Woman, don't cry anymore. How did everything happen so quickly?"  If you summon me truthfully, if there is any prevarication or deception, I will cut you into pieces with a thousand swords and kill your nine clans."

    A flash of fear flashed across Xue Lian's face, and her crying stopped abruptly. She glanced at Chen Shuling with some sadness and help, and then she said solemnly: "I told you that the little girl's name is Xue Lian. She is Shi Xing."My beloved concubine sneaked into the prince's east palace ten days ago on the prince's order. Today's conflict between the prince and the state of Zhou was deliberately instigated by the little girl.  "

    "You're talking nonsense." Before Xue Lian finished speaking, Chen Shuling shouted in a mixture of shock and anger: "When did I ask you to do this? What is your origin as a woman? Why do you want to speak nonsense and slander me?  Come and tell the truth quickly, otherwise I will make your life worse than death now."

    Chen Shubao stood up suddenly, looked at Chen Shuling with an angry face, and said coldly: "Good brother, I think I have done nothing to offend you, but why do you want to frame me like this?"

    "Brother Prince, I misunderstood. I don't know this woman at all. How did the frame-up begin? Could it be that some young man with ulterior motives wanted to sow discord between you and me, so he deliberately framed her." Chen Shuling defended and glared at Xue Lian.  , scolded sternly: "Bold thief, why don't you tell your origin quickly? Do the people behind the scenes really want to be punished by this king?"

    Hearing this, Xue Lian was shaken all over, and she collapsed to the ground as if she had lost her soul. She looked at Chen Shuling with sad and resentful eyes, and smiled sadly: "My lord, how can you be so cruel and heartless, even if you don't want to  Snow Lotus has become your queen, why would you abandon her like a pair of worn-out shoes?"

    As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the hall was shocked, especially Chen Shubao, who was even more furious and roared loudly: "Chen Shuling, I didn't expect that you are so despicable and insidious, harboring evil intentions, and it is true that you want to seek the throne. No wonder the rebellious Sima Fu has never been able to quell it, but you did it so easily  Annihilate them, I¡¯m afraid the so-called traitor is yourself.¡±

    "You don't want to slander me." Chen Shuling was shocked and angry, and even more frightened in his heart. He stared at Chen Shubao with red eyes and said, "I don't know this woman at all, but she insists on framing me. I'm afraid she is under your instructions.  Well, as a prince, you are mediocre and think that I threaten your power, so it is understandable for you to resort to this vicious plan."

    "It's a joke. As a prince, I have a legitimate right to inherit the throne. How can I be afraid of you?" Chen Shubao sneered and snorted disdainfully, and then said to Chen Xu: "Father, Chen Shuling framed the prince, and his treasonous intentions are clearly exposed.  I also hope that my father will order severe punishment to correct the course of the government."

    "Father, I have a clear conscience, and I hope my father will see clearly." Chen Shuling was so angry that he could only ask Chen Xu for help.

    Chen Xu¡¯s face was extremely ugly, his breathing was disordered and heavy, the muscles in the corners of his eyes were beating crazily, his eyes were round and scary,

    "Chen Shuling, I ask you, do you really not know this woman?" Chen Xu's voice was very low, but everyone could hear the irrepressible anger in it.

    Chen Shuling swallowed, his eyes a little averted, and whispered: "I don't know."

    Chen Xu asked Xuelian again: "Xuelian, are you really the concubine of King Shixing?"

    "Back to the emperor, Xuelian was originally a singer at Lichun Garden in Xiangzhou. Thanks to His Highness King Shixing's mercy, I was able to escape from the sea of ??misery."

    With just this sentence, all Chen Shuling's defenses seemed feeble, and the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became oppressive. Everyone couldn't help but hold their breath and did not dare to make a sound.

    Chen Xu closed his eyes in pain and disappointment. It took a long time before he opened his eyes again. His cold eyes looked down at Chen Shuling and said, "Ling'er, you disappoint me so much. Come on."

    "No, Father." Chen Shuling was so anxious that he knelt on the ground, quickly crawled to Chen Xu, hugged Chen Xu's legs, and cried anxiously: "Father, I admit that I know this woman, but  I dare to swear on that day that I will never instruct her to harm His Highness the Crown Prince. If I say anything false, I will be struck by lightning from the sky and die without a burial place."

    Seeing the sincerity and pleading on Chen Shuling's face, Chen Xu's expression couldn't help but soften slightly, and he frowned and fell into deep thought. From the look on his face, what Chen Shuling said was true, so why on earth did Xuelian want to frame her for being kind?  As for Chen Shuling, could it be that all this was planned for a long time, and the person behind it was Chen Shubao?

    Thinking of this, Chen Xu couldn't help but look at Chen Shubao. The latter's face was still angry, and there was no sense of gloating in his expression. This made Chen Xu even more confused.

    ¡°Tsk,.¡±

    At this moment, a deep voice sounded, and then several exclamations were heard from the palace: "Protect the Emperor."

    Chen Xu was startled and was about to dodge, but his legs were hugged by Chen Shuling. When he struggled, a black light penetrated his chest in his horrified eyes.

    "uh-huh."

    "Father, what's wrong with you?" Chen Shuling was shocked and looked at Chen Xu who looked in pain and asked,

    "Your Majesty, those who want to achieve great things must be ruthless and decisive. Today's matter has come to this, we can't just sit back and wait for death." At this moment, a cold voice sounded, and the Qing Yi who appeared with Xue Lian appeared.Unexpectedly, the young man had arrived behind him. He was holding a silver hairpin in his hand, and stabbed Chen Xu in the face fiercely.

    "Pfft."

    Before Chen Shuling had time to stop him, the silver hairpin pierced Chen Xu's chest, and an arrow of bright red blood suddenly spurted out and sprinkled on Chen Shuling's face, making his chaotic brain suddenly wake up.

    "Chen Shuling assassinated the emperor and committed rebellion. He committed a heinous crime. All the guards quickly killed him on the spot." At this moment, Chen Shubao suddenly shouted loudly. The warriors in the palace were stunned, and then they rushed towards Chen Shuling with shouts.

    "You, you" Chen Xu covered his chest with one hand and pointed at Chen Shubao behind the crowd. His face was filled with pain and anger. His mouth was wide open. Before he could finish speaking, he fell down in anger. His eyes were staring.  You have to go round,

    He finally knew that it was not Chen Shuling who killed him but Chen Shubao. But as the prince, why did he do this? Chen Xu didn't understand until his death.
