After the marriage was severed, I fled with my golden finger to protect my mother

Chapter 255 The Second Prince Pretending to Be Crazy and Stupid

"Your Highness, Second Prince, you cannot come in. His Majesty is discussing something with His Highness, the Crown Prince. It is not appropriate for you to barge in..."

It sounded like Eunuch Xing was trying his best to stop it, but what he said seemed to be adding fuel to the fire.

Qi Siyuan's eyes flashed, it seems that this Eunuch Xing cannot be kept.

The reason why we didn't touch him before was that we wanted to use him to expose the dark hand behind him. Now that that woman Xu Linzhi has said that Prince Lian will stage a coup, there is really no need to keep this bastard.

"Get out of my way, I have something urgent to discuss with my father..."

Sure enough, after Eunuch Xing's obstruction, Qi Siyu outside raised his voice even higher, as if he was determined to come in.

There was a lot of noise outside. The emperor was already upset about the border affairs, and now he was even more angry. He immediately grabbed the teacup on the table and smashed it towards the door of the hall.

It was a coincidence that Qi Siyu just pushed open the door of the hall, and the teacup flew past his forehead and hit the door frame next to him, splashing broken porcelain pieces all over the floor.

"Father..."

Qi Siyu didn't expect the emperor to be so angry today, so he stood there not daring to move, but secretly looked at Qi Siyuan with his eyes.

"Tell me, today I want to see if you have something so serious that you need to force your way into the Yangxin Palace and disturb the conversation between your father and brother."

The emperor could not escape the emperor's attention. His face immediately darkened and his majestic eyes stared at him.

Although he was not very clear about what this kid was planning, it was very annoying that he always pretended to be willful and ignorant in front of him.

"No... I just wanted to see you, Father. I came here several times during the day and you..."

"That's enough! How come I, an emperor, need to tell a prince like you where to go?"

Before Qi Siyu could finish his stumbling words, the emperor interrupted him with an angry shout, pointed at him with a trembling finger and cursed:

"Tell me, why do you come to see me in broad daylight?"

The emperor's questioning made Qi Siyu's face turn pale. He silently took two steps back and turned his gaze to Eunuch Xing who was standing aside.

"Oh, Your Majesty, let's calm down first. Don't let your anger get to your health. Let's drink some hot tea first..."

Eunuch Xing received Qi Siyu's gaze and immediately picked up the teapot beside him and poured another cup of tea for the emperor.

"His Highness came here today because he is worried about your health. Please consider his filial piety and don't be angry with him."

Eunuch Xing had been with the emperor for many years, and the emperor liked him very much in his daily speech and actions. Therefore, when he spoke, the emperor would give him some face.

Qi Siyuan watched silently from the side. It was interesting, really interesting.

The second prince who was ruthless but pretended to be crazy and stupid, the eunuch Xing who was secretly doing things to get along with everyone, and the current emperor who was easily influenced by others...

Even though Eunuch Xing and Qi Siyu acted very well, Qi Siyuan didn't even need to check to know that the reason why Qi Siyu came over at this time was because Eunuch Xing deliberately sent someone to notify him to come over.

All he wanted to do was to interfere in his own affairs, but he was already a step too late. The emperor had just handed him the military token as proof and told him to just take care of the arrangements.

With the help of Eunuch Xing, the emperor's anger soon subsided. After scolding Qi Siyu a few words, the matter was over.

Qi Siyuan didn't care about these. He responded casually with a few words and left with the military token in his arms.

Holding the warm military token tightly in his hand along the way, he suddenly felt a surge of ambition and passion in his heart.

Why not take this opportunity to go to the border and try your luck?

Anyway, the emperor is still in good health and can manage the government with ease. If he stays in the capital, he will only be treated as a thorn in the eyes of some people.

If the two brothers started fighting, it would only benefit outsiders in the end. Wouldn't that make others the fishermen who would reap the benefits?

But even if he wanted to go to the border, he had to get rid of the rebellious Eunuch Xing before leaving.

Thinking of the evidence he had found before, Qi Siyuan called someone in, gave him a few instructions, and then sent him out.

Soon, a big news broke out in the palace, saying that several important ornaments were lost in the palace. After a search, they actually found several royal items in Eunuch Xing's room.

Speaking of which, Eunuch Xing was an old man close to the emperor, and normally no one would check on him. But this time the lost items were so important that a large-scale search was launched, and who knew that Eunuch Xing would be found out.

Not only that, they also found a lot of things in his room that should have been in the emperor's private storehouse. This left him speechless and unable to express his grievances.

Of course, except for the treasure that served as an introduction, all the other things were things he got from the warehouse when he took advantage of the convenience.

Eunuch Xing knew that the situation was not good, but he was unwilling to admit his guilt. He immediately cried to the emperor, saying that someone disliked him and deliberately used tricks to frame him.

"Wuwuwu... Please, Your Majesty, please help me. I am an old eunuch without a family or friends. What use do all those worldly possessions have for me? I can't just wait to take them to my coffin..."

This made sense, and after some thought, the emperor sent someone to investigate the matter thoroughly.

If you don't check, you won't know. Once you check, you will be shocked to find that Eunuch Xing has been selling many valuable things to others over the years, whether they are royal treasures, palace ornaments, calligraphy and paintings, and ancient books, all of them have been sold.

The shop had long been controlled by Qi Siyuan's men. In order to clear himself of the responsibility, he immediately betrayed Eunuch Xing without saying a word.

The emperor actually believed that Eunuch Xing was wrongly accused and had tried to comfort him with a few words. But when the truth was finally revealed, it was like a slap in the face for the emperor.

If the emperor had not valued him over the years, who would take him, an old eunuch, seriously? Now that he was disliked by the emperor, naturally everyone would turn against him.

Then more secrets of Eunuch Xing were exposed, such as accepting bribes, leaking the emperor's whereabouts, and using his power to bully concubines in the harem... Every one of these things would be enough to chop off the heads of his ancestors for eighteen generations.

Of course, the emperor was not a tyrant, and the old eunuch Xing Gonggong could not find his eighteen generations of ancestors, so he had him dragged out and beaten to death.
