The prince is very cruel

"This bitch!" Yuan Xiang cursed in a low voice, looking unhappy.

Guan Ning was so scared that he quickly covered Yuan Xiang's mouth, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. It was indeed mean, but he couldn't say it out loud in this situation.

"Hmm? My beloved, what happened?" The old emperor said, touching Zhenfei's hand.

One is a white-haired woman who is so old that she can hardly walk, and the other is a beauty in her thirties, in the prime of her life, with fair skin. That picture perfectly illustrates the charm of power.

"Your Majesty, I was just out for an outing when I heard a commotion. I rushed over to see what was happening, and I saw this man assaulting twenty eunuchs."

"The Imperial Palace is the seat of the Son of Heaven, commanding great power and authority. How could such a violation of decorum and national law be tolerated? I tried to dissuade him, but he not only refused to listen, but went even further, assaulting the eunuch and cursing me."

As she spoke, she choked with sobs and buried her head in the old emperor's chest. If you didn't know, you would think she had suffered a great injustice.

Such a green tea, such a villain who complained first, Yuan Xiang was so angry that she wanted to refute on the spot, but Guan Ning held her back with one hand.

"What are you doing? She falsely accused you!"

"I'm going to expose her!" Yuan Xiang lowered her voice and struggled hard. She didn't care who it was, but she would take care of Guan Ning. She had a kind of courage that was ignorant of the immensity of the world and like a moth flying into a flame.

Guan Ning was at a loss for words and simply pressed her to death.

The old emperor is not a foolish ruler. He is very cunning and smart. How could he not guess what is going on? He is just pretending.

Even if he believed what Zhenfei said, it would be impossible for him to handle the matter impartially, because the emperor always puts his own interests first.

At this time, the old emperor looked over.

"Guan Ning, is this true?" His voice was slightly displeased.

"Your Majesty, it is like this!"

"I can testify!"

"I can testify that everything Concubine Zhen said is true!"

"Your Majesty, please make the decision for us. Look, he knocked out all my teeth. Hitting me is fine, but offending Concubine Zhen is extremely disrespectful!"

The eunuchs rushed over all at once, kneeling on the ground and crying, especially the fat eunuch who directly hugged the old emperor's legs.

"fart!"

Yuan Xiang couldn't hold it in any longer and shouted, "Your Majesty, they are the villains who filed the complaint first!"

"It was Concubine Zhen who sent them to embarrass Guan Ning first!"

This voice was very loud.

The eunuchs' faces turned pale and they all looked at Concubine Zhen.

The old emperor looked at Guan Ning calmly: "What's going on?"

Guan Ning grabbed Yuan Xiang and stepped forward, saying, "Your Majesty, that's not the case. It has nothing to do with Concubine Zhen."

When these words were spoken, many people thought they had misheard. Yuan Xiang's eyes widened. Why was he speaking for the enemy?

But what no one saw was that a hint of satisfaction flashed in the depths of the old emperor's eyes.

Guan Ning continued, "Just now, it was these eunuchs who came forward and made things difficult for me. Later, I did use inappropriate words and offended Concubine Zhen. I apologize to Concubine Zhen here, and I hope Your Majesty will punish me."

After hearing this, Yuan Xiang became furious. How could he admit his guilt?

She was so excited that she wanted to help defend him, but Guan Ning gave her a stern look and she stopped immediately.

"So that's how it is. It's these cunning slaves who are causing trouble."

"I allow Guan Ning to enter and leave the palace freely. How dare you make things difficult for him? Are you turning a deaf ear to my words?" The old emperor said coldly. A chill directly covered the entire imperial garden, causing the flowers on the branches to shrink a lot.

Twenty eunuchs were horrified: "Your Majesty, this is not true!"

"not like this!"

"We didn't give the prince any trouble, he was the one who beat us!"

"Drag him away and beat him to death with sticks!" The old emperor didn't listen at all and gave the order directly, killing people as if they were killing a chicken.

Guan Ning was slightly startled. He didn't expect that he would kill directly. Is this the way an emperor treats people?

"Yes!" The imperial guards immediately stepped forward to drag the man away.

"Do not!!"

"Your Majesty, please listen to my explanation!"

"Empress, save me, Empress, save me!" The eunuchs screamed for help frantically, their fingers leaving grooves in the ground, but they were still dragged away mercilessly and eventually became victims of the old emperor's power politics.
