But recently, Emperor Hongyuan's behavior was getting more and more excessive.
Yesterday, he received a secret report that Emperor Hongyuan was infatuated with immortal pills. His temper became extremely violent and paranoid.
If the palace servants were careless, they would be beheaded by him.
At the same time, he took advantage of his absence to secretly kill Magistrate Zhang, Tian Zhang, and others.
The Empress also asked Su Changxiao to use witchcraft to frame Princess Royal. Fortunately, Princess Royal had already made arrangements, so she was not framed by them.
These people were so vicious and ambitious. They killed his parents, and now they want to kill him without leaving him a way out.
How could he sit and wait for death and be trampled on? He would never let Chu fall into the hands of such evildoers.
Speaking up to here, he slowly cupped his hands towards Jiang Ning. "Presumably, when Daren heard about these things, Daren is also very angry. Daren also sympathizes with the common people's suffering. Wang knows that Daren is the pillar of the country, and you care about the common people. That's why I came to see Daren. For the sake of the people, this King hopes that Your Excellency can lend this King a hand. "
Hearing this, Jiang Ning's face suddenly turned pale.
He sighed heavily, and his face was full of embarrassment. "This official knows that Prince is wholeheartedly devoted to the common people. You can't bear to see the foundation established by the late Emperor be destroyed in the hands of evildoers. But this official is just a small provincial governor. I don't care about those things anymore. If I can't help Prince, please find someone else. "
Chu Xuanchen said, "Wang already expected Daren to say this. Does Daren have any difficulties?"
He could see that Jiang Ning wanted to rely on him, but he didn't dare.
Jiang Ning's forehead overflowed with cold sweat, and his body trembled. "To tell you the truth, Prince. At that time, this official was young and impetuous. For the sake of the late Emperor, I was demoted by Emperor Hongyuan. This official had three sons, and two of them were killed. Since then, the family has been plagued by disasters, and my career has been bumpy. Later, this official found out that my two sons were assassinated by Emperor Hongyuan. Fortunately, Muyu was weak and sickly, so he was raised in the countryside and escaped the disaster! "
"Later, this official felt that the Emperor would not let Muyu go. She took the initiative to submit a memorial to the Emperor, admitting her wrongs and surrendering to him. Only then did he spare Mu Yu. Otherwise, how could Mu Yu become the top scholar and enter the Hanlin Academy? This lowly official did not want Mu Yu to enter the official career and enter the officialdom, but he has a chivalrous heart to serve the country. He couldn't bear to see the people suffer, so he swore to study hard, hoping to enter the court and become a good official who would make decisions for the people. "
"He has a stubborn personality. This lowly official couldn't do anything to him, so I let him take the scholarly examinations. This lowly official thought that he would fail the exam, but who would have thought that he would actually become the top scorer. Now that he's in the limelight, if the Emperor finds out that you and I are in contact, Mu Yu will definitely be killed. Your Highness, right now, this lowly official has old and young to take care of. This lowly official is burdened with the lives of more than ten people in my family. I really don't dare to get involved in these matters. I ask for your understanding. "
He had heard that Hongyuan Emperor did not want Mu Yu to become the top scholar. However, Mu Yu was knowledgeable and knowledgeable. When he was discussing politics in the main hall, he surpassed the other students by too much and received the praises of all the examiners.
Only then did the Hongyuan Emperor choose him as the top scholar under pressure.
Although Mu Yu was now the top scholar, he did not have the Emperor's heart. He was being watched by the Emperor and was on guard against him. Every step he took was like walking on thin ice, trembling with fear.
Relying on The Emperor of Li was too risky.
He had so many loved ones to protect, so how could he put them in the middle of a whirlpool?
Even though he could see that Chu Xuanchen was a genius who cared about the world, he did not dare to get involved with him.
