After Prince Jin left Jinfei's palace, he did not leave the palace to change his clothes. Instead, he went straight to the front hall to wait. He waited for nearly two hours and did not bring the Emperor here. Instead, he met the First Prince who had come to pay his respects.

His Majesty's movements outside the palace weren't considered secret. In addition, Grand Princess Yi and Mu Yunyao were accompanying him, so he didn't envy them and didn't intentionally hide it. Thus, the King quickly found out that the Emperor and Grand Princess Yi had gone to tasting tea.

He ordered his men to guard the door of the House of No Enmity. After realizing that the Emperor had the intention of leaving for the palace, he went to the Imperial Palace and came to see Prince Jin, who had been waiting for him for the past half day.

"Aiya, third brother, why are your clothes so disheveled?

" Don't you know how to arrange your appearance when you come to meet royal father?

"

I have seen big brother. On the way back, I heard that father was unwell, so I was very concerned about him. After returning to the capital, I did not bother to return to my house to change my clothes, so I directly went to the palace.

Wang Lin pursed his lips, a profound smile on his face:

"You should be worried. After all, it's not convenient for you to enter the palace after today.

"

Prince Jin's eyes darkened,

"Big brother, what do you mean by this?

" After you returned to the capital, did you not deliberately inquire about what had happened in this period of time?

"

"Look at me. Third Brother just said that when he heard that Royal Father was unwell, he rushed to the palace. It seems that he did not know that the begging for money in the capital had already …

"

royal father has ordered us to investigate.

"

Prince Jin frowned. He didn't know what was going on as he said,

"What begging for money? I don't understand what big brother is talking about.

"

"Third Brother's act of playing the fool is truly admirable. Seeing your expression, I almost believed that you were innocent.

"

"What are you talking about?

" Since this matter has already been found out by royal father, I'm not afraid of telling you in advance. In Jiangnan, you colluded with salt merchants to get rid of the salt tax and silver. Then you forged the account books and forged the official silver. You thought that you could blow up the riverbank and let the water flood the ships carrying the salt and silver get rid of all worries.

The tax money was delivered to the capital. If not for Imperial Father finding out something from those beggars, perhaps you would have been able to hide it from the world and embezzled the silver.

" King Jin squinted his eyes slightly, a dangerous glint flashed across his eyes:

"Big brother framed me with his white teeth, I will definitely seek justice in front of royal father later. As for my two uncles, I believe that they would occupy some of the land, but they definitely did not kill me …

With this courage, Big Brother ordered the Li Family to take action against them, framing them for being unscrupulous. The most important point is, where exactly are the taxes and taxes?

"Originally, Prince Jin didn't dare to be sure, but now that he has seen the King displaying his power in front of him, it seems like he has made up his mind. He has no way to expose this conspiracy, and this made him make up his mind in an instant. The 2 million taels of salt tax banknotes that were with his two uncles, must have been taken away by the Lee family.

" What do I know? You better not pick and bite at random, or else I will ask royal father to uphold justice.

" The King coldly snorted in his heart. He was clearly at the end of his rope, but the Prince Jin was still as hypocritical as before. With such a calm appearance, how much of a grievance did he think he had suffered?

Oh.

Just as the two were arguing, the guards greeted them with a salute, interrupting them.

"Greetings, Your Majesty. Greetings, Grand Princess Yi De …

"

The two of them quickly turned their heads and bowed when they saw the person who had walked over. Mu Yunyao held onto Grand Princess Yi De's arm as she jokingly spoke to the Emperor,

"Uncle, you don't know this, but in order to find a way to wrap the scissors with ice silk, I have spent a lot of time and effort. I don't know who bought the scissors, but the blade is exceptionally sharp.

When I find him, I'll punish him with half a month's worth of money …

"

It was obviously some trivial matter, but Mu Yunyao had a smile on her face when she spoke of it. It seemed like she had a different interest when she spoke of it, causing Emperor Ren to listen with relish. Just as he was about to speak of her, he saw the Emperor and Prince Jin standing at the foot of the steps.

Grand Princess Yi De stopped in her tracks.

"Your Majesty, the two children have come to pay their respects to you. Yunyao and I will be leaving first.

"

"Alright, Royal Sis, please slow down. Yunyao, take good care of your grandmother.

"

"Yes.

"

Waiting until Grand Princess Yi De and Mu Yunyao had left, the emperor swept a glance at the King and Prince Jin. His originally smiling expression turned cold as he said,

"We ordered the two of you to come back earlier. Today, I did not announce for you to enter the palace, but instead came together with me.

"

The two of them followed the emperor's footsteps and entered the great hall.

"Father, I've heard that you've produced an extremely particular kind of scented tea. I had someone buy some for you to taste.

"

The Emperor glanced at him in confusion.

"Then that's unfortunate. Today, I went to the Avaricious Restaurant to try some fruits and tea. I don't think that the taste is very good and I don't like it much.

"

The King looked slightly embarrassed for a moment, then smiled:

"This son specifically asked the Si Cha of Bu Wu Lou, and said that this kind of scented tea has the ability to concentrate one's energy, although its taste is not as good as those precious tea leaves that go to the palace, it's still good to drink a mouthful or two from it.

"

The emperor turned his head to look at Xu Li.

Xu Li quickly walked down and respectfully received the box from the Duke of Yu's hands. He then placed it on the side of the imperial table.

Seeing this, the King secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He turned to Prince Jin and asked,

"Third brother, why aren't you saying anything?

"

Seeing that the emperor's gaze was on him, Prince Jin took two steps forward and knelt on the ground. He bowed respectfully and said,

"Imperial Father, after I received your order, I did not immediately return from Riverside City. I disobeyed your order, so I hope that Imperial Father can punish me.

"

The emperor looked at the Jin Emperor with a complicated look in his eyes. After a long while, he slowly spoke,

"Your majesty, you may leave first.

"

The King, who had originally intended to watch a joke, was somewhat unwilling. He glanced at the Jin Emperor before slowly retreating.

The emperor stood up and walked down the steps. He didn't stop until he was in front of Prince Jin. Then, he raised his leg and kicked him down,

"Evil creature, do you know what you've done wrong?

"

King Jin was kicked to the ground, his face was filled with fear as he once again kneeled down before the emperor's feet.

"Royal father, this son really does not know what I did wrong. I actually caused you to become so angry. Please enlighten me, royal father.

" The emperor looked at him gloomily,

"I will give you one last chance. If you tell me everything, I might not let you off the hook. If you are still unrepentant, then don't blame me for not caring about the feelings of father and son we have shared for so many years!
