The fingers in the box were cut off, and there were four fingers, namely the index finger and the middle finger.

Heaven and the emperor looked at these four fingers, almost immediately recognized that they belonged to his third son, and his heart suddenly turned, and his eyes closed tightly.

Seeing the emperor like this, the people standing in the hall of Qingming opened their mouth and said, "I can't find the specific situation in Prince Ping's mansion. The poison barrier given by heaven is very domineering. As soon as I go in, my channels are blocked. I can't use my internal power, and even it's very difficult to walk. My subordinates had to heal outside, and they didn't recover until three hours later. It is said that the fourth miss of the Bai family went in with her brother's kitchen knife ahead of time, and her third highness must have suffered some hardships in her hands. "

The old emperor sighed, "well, it's the white family's mercy to take his four fingers. I'm just a little uncomfortable... "He pointed to the box on the table." this is my son after all. No matter how big a mistake he made, it's also my son. I don't care. Only when he grows up, he has to bear the responsibility and price for what he has done. If he has no ability to do it, he can only bear the consequences after it is exposed. It is said that the royal family will survive the fittest. Indeed, the royal family needs the best children to sit on the throne. It is impossible for such clumsy means as Lao San to achieve anything. "

Then he looked at the man in the hall and asked, "tell me, what do you find?"

"Yes." As soon as the man bowed, "the news from the hall, the night of the destruction of the golden cave in Famen Temple, the people of the fourth royal highness and Tianci princess were just the deployment of the third Royal Highness, aiming to snatch money and kill the fourth royal highness and Tianci princess."

Heaven and the emperor frowned tightly together, "the third man? You mean that his intention that night was to kill Lao Si and a ran? Isn't it just ah ran? "

"Exactly. According to the subordinates' analysis, because the four princes are always close to the ninety-two princes, the four princes must be removed if they want to weaken the ninety-two princes. But that night the fourth highness went to help again, so he fell into the ambush of the third highness. As for the gifted princess, she should have fallen into the eyes of the third Royal Highness from the moment she found Famen Temple and become a sharp thorn that must be pulled out. But he certainly didn't expect that Princess Tianci's fighting power was so strong. Under the precise deployment, she couldn't catch people. On the contrary, she was defeated at the expense of her troops and finally ran away. "

Heaven and the emperor heard a dull hum, "you are too much of yourself! Even he didn't weigh up his own weight, so he followed the example of others who sent troops to encircle and suppress his own brother. It's just as well to chop this kind of thing. "

He picked and pulled the box in front of him, and four fingers were scattered on the ground.

But the old Emperor didn't want to look at the finger any more. One thing after another that the third son had done had cooled his heart, especially when he heard that he had to kill the fourth son.

The last thing he wants to see is that princes kill each other, so he doesn't have a prince until this age. Although it has been widely spread over the years that his favorite successor is Lao Shi, he has never admitted it himself. Although he did think that way, he did not dare to cultivate old ten as much as he did for the safety of old ten.

Everyone says that the royal family is heartless. Everyone says that the royal family has only monarchs and ministers, no father and son, only country and no family.

But he never wanted to. He always wanted to be a real home in the harem. So he would rather have empress Chen's bad temper than go to Zhaoren palace. Even if he quarrels every day, he is willing to accompany empress Chen to quarrel.

Because he thinks that is the best way to bring out the atmosphere of fireworks among the people, and most like the ordinary couple's daily stumbling. Of course, there's nothing wrong with it except that the smashed things are a little more expensive.

This is also the idea that emperor Tianhe's temperament changed when he got old. If he went back 20 years, he would not be like this. He would still linger in the imperial concubine or pick and choose among the flowers.

He always thought that maybe after the death of Lao Jiu Lao Shi's biological mother, he had a change. Later, he met Jiang Yue's mother, which made him even more worried. In fact, he didn't have much affection for Jiang Yue's mother, just because the woman and his sweetheart were sisters. They not only had close blood, but also had a face like 70%.

So he subconsciously added his thoughts and debts to Jiang Yue's mother.

The old emperor always thought that he attached great importance to feelings. No matter to his concubine or son, no matter what happened to him, he tried to think from the perspective of family as much as possible. His first thought is how to keep his son, how to make his so-called home not incomplete, not broken.

So at the beginning, the fifth schemed against baihecan, and he went out to beg for the fifth. Now the third is fighting against baihecan's brother, so he went out to beg for the third, and let baihecan spare the third's life.But his third son was still calculating his fourth son, and he went to kill his fourth son with his private soldiers. Isn't that hitting him in the face? Isn't this destroying his home?

"How many private soldiers are there in Laosan?" He asked the people in the hall, "how much have you mastered in recent years?"

The man replied: "the third Highness has 60000 private soldiers. The nearest private barracks to the upper capital has 30000 soldiers. The rest 30000 are at the border of Dezhen and gobu. According to the investigation in the hall, the third Royal Highness has been very close to Gebu in recent years. We once intercepted a letter from Prince Ping's mansion to the king of Gebu. Although it didn't involve the substance, we had to guard against it. "

Heaven and the emperor are furious, "son of a bitch! I should let a ran poison this villain and let Zhen Zhen cut this thing to death! What else can he not do to harm his brothers and collude with foreign enemies? I'm afraid that the ambush of Laosi was also to rob the hidden gold of Famen Temple to strengthen his private soldiers. Private soldiers and private soldiers. My tolerance and trust over the years have resulted in them keeping private soldiers outside one by one. What is the purpose of this? This is a rebellion! "

"Emperor, calm down." The man in the hall said again: "in fact, not only the private soldiers of the third Royal Highness attacked that night, but also the people of the Empress Dowager's side participated in it. However, he did not join hands with the three princesses, but joined hands with each other to attack the four princesses and Princess Tianci. It was a dangerous night. If it wasn't for the last ten, I'm afraid it would be... "

"I'm afraid Lao Si and a ran have to be folded there." The old emperor tired to say this sentence, after the heart filled with bursts of fear.

He can't be afraid. The feelings between Lao Si and Lao Jiu and Lao Shi are needless to say. A Ran is Lao Shi's fiancee. If these two people are folded in Lao San's hands, he can't imagine what will happen.

Old ten will kill old three. It's certain. What about after that? Lao Shi will not seize the throne or rebel, because sooner or later, the throne will be his, and the world will be his.

So he was not afraid of Lao Shi's rebellion, but he was afraid that Lao Shi would go the way of Lao Si. He was afraid that Lao Shi would become Lao Si after Bai He ran died. Looking at is alive, can speak, can laugh, but actually is dead, the heart is dead, the soul is also destroyed, the rest is just a walking corpse.

"Does the palace of hell know the news?" The old emperor asked, "have you found out the real murderer of Famen Temple?"

The man nodded, "Yama hall, we found out first, but we didn't do it. We just held the evidence in our hands."

"Why not start early?" The old emperor frowned and said, "once you have mastered the evidence, you will certainly take people. It's a capital crime to hoard private soldiers. Why did he miss the chance to execute the third man? "

There was a wry smile on the man's face. "Emperor, according to the analysis of his subordinates, the palace of hell doesn't want to tear his face. After all, it's the third brother of his ninth highness, so his ninth highness just blocked the private barracks, making the whole camp no longer have the ability to act. As for the third highness, maybe the ninety-two highness also want to give their third brother a chance! I didn't expect... "

"I didn't expect that the old man didn't want to be shameless. Instead of repenting, he made it worse." The old emperor sighed, "I'm afraid lin'er will not be able to suppress the hoarding of private soldiers after he knows this!"

After all, he will kill this son. He can go all out and plead with baihecan. But when this son hoards private soldiers and always prepares for rebellion and usurpation, he can't stay any longer.

He can only think that he is a father, he also has to think that he is an emperor. Before he wants to defend his family, he must defend his country. Any force that endangers the monarchy and territory has to be removed.

His eyes looked at the four fingers on the ground again. The man in the hall knew what he was thinking. He picked up the fingers and put them back in the box and sent them to the old emperor's desk.

The old emperor reached out his hand and gently fumbled up and down the four fingers. His mind flashed over and over again the appearance of the third son when he was young. I think of him personally teaching him to draw bow and shoot arrows, helping him to a pony, holding the child's hand and teaching him to write stroke by stroke, and sitting in front of the sickbed and wiping his forehead again and again when the child was sick and helpless.

Unfortunately, all he could think of was the child's childhood appearance and things, even when he was young. The best memories are left in childhood. What about growing up?

The old emperor's face was full of bitterness. He wanted to be a good father, and he was trying his best to be a good father, but what did his son give him back?

It is to hoard private soldiers, to seize his throne, to drive him down from the throne, or even to kill him.

The old emperor shuddered with fear.

"You go!" His voice was tired, and the whole person suddenly grew old. "Do it more quickly, don't make him too painful..."
