The little cannon fodder kept releasing melons, and people lined up to eat melons

Huaiwang Mansion...

Xiao Tianyi, who was beaten with a stick 30 times, was carried by two servants, one on each side, and walked behind King Huai.

Xiao Qingyan, who had just stepped into the palace, suddenly turned around and slapped Xiao Tianyi hard.

Blood instantly flowed from the corner of Xiao Tianyi's mouth, which showed how powerful Xiao Qingyan was. Princess Huai, who was already distressed about her son's injury, exclaimed and wiped the corner of her son's mouth with a handkerchief in pain.

Because the female members of the family did not go with the emperor and the ministers at that time, Xiao Tiance was the only one who knew the inside story besides Prince Huai.

"Kneel down..."

Xiao Tianyi, who was covered in wounds, knew he was in the wrong, and knelt down with difficulty with the help of two servants...

Xiao Jiayi and Xiao Noning were so frightened by this scene that they were at a loss what to do. When the princess saw that her son was not only beaten but also had to kneel down, she immediately refused to do it...

"Why is the prince so angry? Can't you just talk it out nicely?"

"Why don't you ask what this evil creature did? It's immoral and disgusting, and he is simply a scum of the world..."

Xiao Qingyan was scolding with spit flying everywhere and his face turned red. The princess, who didn't understand what was going on, couldn't stand it anymore.

"How can the prince insult my son like this? He is also the prince's son, isn't he? Even if he did something wrong, you can just talk to him nicely..."

"This rebellious son is in this situation because of your indulgence as a mother. As a prince, he never studied hard and practiced diligently. Whenever I wanted to teach him a lesson, you always stopped me and protected him. Now his fate as a prince has come to an end..."

Xiao Qingyan glared at the princess. The princess thought he was unreasonable and was about to refute her, but was stopped by her second son...

"Mother, I really don't blame father. It was really my eldest brother who went too far today... He and Mr. Fei and Mr. Fei's concubine were having an affair in a side hall of the imperial palace... They were caught on the spot by the emperor and the ministers..."

Xiao Jiayi's mouth has grown so big, I can't tell!! Big brother is playing very colorfully...

Although Xiao Noning looked down on his elder brother's actions and felt that they were immoral, he remained calm and did not show any sarcasm.

The princess was petrified? What did Ce'er just say? Yi'er? The palace? And Fei Yanwen and the other two?

"Yier, you are really confused? Why would you do such a treasonous thing in the palace for no reason?"

The princess finally understood why Prince Huai was so angry. This time Yi'er really went too far.

"I didn't do anything. Song Chengzhou framed me..." Xiao Tianyi's eyes were full of hatred.

"Brother, the second son of the Marquis's family also said that the woman was Fei Yanwen's concubine. If he wanted to harm you, how could he bring the second son Fei's concubine to the palace?"

Xiao Tiance pretended not to understand. He knew that the crown prince Xiao Tianyi was doomed by the emperor. Now Xiao Tianyi wanted his father to change his mind, so he didn't mind giving him another blow.

"Do you know why the emperor convicted you without even asking you a single question? Just as Ce'er said, the emperor thinks this is just an excuse you want to deny..."

Seeing that no one believed him, Xiao Tianyi had no choice but to reveal all of their and the prince's original plans.

The princess never thought that the prince was involved in this matter. Now this matter cannot be investigated further. This is a dead end. Both promiscuity and playing tricks under the emperor's nose are unbearable...

"Brother, if you really want to destroy Song Chengzhou, there are plenty of opportunities. Why do you have to do it at such an important occasion as the palace banquet?"

Xiao Jiayi complained a little. Her elder brother had lost face in front of the emperor. Would this affect her marriage with the prince? She hated her elder brother so much! He was so stupid and foolish. He had the nerve to frame others. It didn't matter if he died, but he also brought trouble to her and the reputation of the palace...

"Look... even Jiayi, a girl, knows her limits. I think all those books you read have been wasted."

Xiao Qingyan's eyes were full of disgust. How could he have given birth to such a stupid son?

"Father, please calm down and don't get yourself in trouble. My eldest brother is still injured! The most important thing now is to let the doctor take a look..." Xiao Noning comforted softly.

"Your Highness, Yi'er was framed this time. Please forgive him considering that he has been injured so badly!" The princess also pleaded.

"Yes! Father, although my elder brother made a mistake this time, he is not as the ministers say..."

Xiao Tiance's subtext is that although we know that Xiao Tianyi is not really having an affair with Fei Yanwen, all the ministers in the capital believe that Xiao Tianyi's absurd behavior tonight must be more than one time.

"No one is allowed to beg for mercy... No one is allowed to find a doctor for him. From today on, he is confined to Ting Haoxuan and is not allowed to take a single step out of his house without my order..."

Prince Huai no longer paid attention to anyone and walked away directly...

How could the princess bear to see her child covered in wounds and not receive medical treatment? She immediately ordered someone to carry Xiao Tianyi back to Ting Haoxuan, and asked Nanny Gui to take her token to invite the imperial physician...

Xiao Tiance felt that the stars tonight were brighter than usual. It was a pity that he couldn't enjoy a drink with such a beautiful view...

Minister of Works Fei Fu...

Fei Jiheng slapped his kneeling son several times, and his brothers did not dare to speak for fear of bringing bad luck to their father.

When Mrs. Fei saw her good grandson being beaten, she kept shouting for him to stop.

Li held her husband's hand and said, "Master, please be merciful. Wen Ge'er is still injured!"

"Don't stop me today. I will beat this rebellious son to death to avoid bringing shame to my Fei family..."

Fei Jiheng became more and more angry as he spoke, and kicked him fiercely. Fei Yanwen was kicked to the ground, causing Madam Fei and Li to exclaim repeatedly...

Li helped her second son up and complained tearfully: "Master, why did you do this? Even if Wen Ge'er made a big mistake, you shouldn't have been so cruel?"

Mr. Fei was afraid that his grandmother and mother would anger his father, so he just told them the whole story...

Madam Fei stepped back in shock, and said angrily: "Brother Wen, have you lost your mind? How can you mess around with Prince Xiao in such an important place as the Imperial Palace?"

"Brother Wen, is what your elder brother said true? Do you and Master Xiao take it seriously? Seriously..." Li was unable to speak.

"Tell me! Who gave you the courage to bring a woman to the palace banquet? Why did you hide it from us..."

After Fei Jiheng calmed down, he realized that this matter was strange. When did this rebellious son take a concubine? Why didn't anyone know that he brought a concubine to the palace for a banquet?

"Father, Qingyin entered the palace disguised as my personal maid..."

Fei Youwei knew she couldn't escape, so she had to kneel down and admit her mistake.

"Tell me everything clearly, what is going on. If you two dare to hide anything, don't blame me for not thinking about the relationship between father and son..."

Fei Jiheng Jiheng didn't expect that even his daughter would be involved in this matter. They are all really great.

"Father, I don't know what my second brother wants to do. He just asked me to find a way to bring Qingyin to the palace banquet. I was unwilling at first, but my second brother said that this was the plan of Prince Xiao and the Crown Prince. If I don't do it, it will make the Prince and the Crown Prince unhappy, so I have to obey!"

Fei Youwei revealed everything she knew. She didn't know that the prince asked her to bring people to the palace banquet to do something like this! !

"Why does this matter involve the prince? Rebellious son, explain it to me clearly..."

Fei Yanwen looked dead silent. He had nothing to hide. He had talked with the Crown Prince and the Prince about everything, including the two times he had failed before, and the purchase of Qingyin from the Paradise Pavilion. He had confessed everything...

"Stupid, extremely stupid. I have always told you to study hard and stop thinking about crooked ways. What benefit can you get from that except hurting others and yourself? If you are incompetent yourself, don't blame others for being excellent..."

Fei Jiheng never wanted to get involved in any party disputes. He believed that as long as he was loyal to the emperor, his Fei family would not be involved in any disputes. Who would have thought that this rebellious son would dare to have contact with the prince? Isn't this putting his Fei family on the fire?

"Father, are we just going to let this go? My second brother was harmed so badly this time!"

The person who spoke was Fei Jiheng's eldest son. The emperor had cut off Fei Yanwen's career as an official, which meant that his second brother could only be an idle person from now on.

"We have to admit this matter whether we admit it or not. If we admit it, at most it will be that this rebellious son is excessively licentious. If we don't admit it and investigate further, let alone the crime of scheming against the Marquis' Mansion, as long as the Crown Prince is involved, do you think the Queen and the Grand Tutor will let our Fei family go? Moreover, Marquis Song has just won a victory. At this critical juncture, if the people knew that my Fei family schemed against the Marquis' son, do you think our Fei family would still have a chance to survive? And don't forget the Duke's Mansion and Concubine Chen. So let alone us admit this matter, even Prince Huai will admit it. He must know which is more important."

The more Fei Jiheng spoke, the more silent the people present became. Everyone knew that this was the best outcome.

"Alas! For the Fei family, this is the only way. Li, take Wen Ge'er back to the house to recuperate!"

The whole family was silent...
