The second prince's liver pain was so painful, but he had no choice but to do anything!

Obviously, Chen Xiao was sure of the second prince and did not want to expose what happened last night.

That's why, in such a public manner, deliberately embarrass the second prince.

The second prince has no way of doing this.

He could only try his best to endure his inner anger.

At this moment, under the rhythm of Chen Xiao, almost everyone paid attention to the scars on the second prince's face, and the emperor was no exception.

The emperor looked at the second prince and said, "Second, raise your head and let me take a look!"

The second prince slowly raised his head helplessly and the emperor took a closer look.

The second prince had a scar on his face, which was obviously beaten by someone else.

At that moment, I couldn't help but frown and said in a deep voice:

"Second, you are the prince, why are you still beaten? Who beat him? What a courage!"

If you beat a royal family and still have a dignified prince, you will basically have to be beheaded.

If Chen Xiaoan is given such a crime at this time, it will definitely be the best!

But the second prince understood even more in his heart, if it were Chen Xiao who beat him.

After asking, the things he did will be exposed!

Not to mention anything else, assassinating the imperial court's official is enough to make him lose favor with the emperor and will also keep all officials away from him.

In addition, it is somewhat embarrassing to be beaten, let alone being beaten by Chen Xiao!

Therefore, he was already mentally prepared to hide this secret.

But at this time, Chen Xiao spoke again:

"Yes, the second prince, this beating of the royal family is a serious crime. You must tell me and punish this guy who despises the royal family heavily."

The second prince couldn't help but thrust his face.

He couldn't help but glance at Chen Xiao and thought to himself: You are so shameless.

Of course, this sentence cannot be said, and can only slander in my heart and hate Chen Xiao extremely deeply.

When the emperor saw that the second prince did not speak, he frowned and said:

"What, second brother, I'm asking you!"

The second prince looked up helplessly and said:

"Father, Erchen got drunk in the palace yesterday. He fell a few times on the way back. Some scars appeared on his face. It was not because he was beaten, which made his father worried. Erchen really felt sorry."

When the emperor heard this, he said in confusion: "How come he fell down on his face?"

The ministers around them also showed doubts, and they didn't really believe in the second prince's words!

The second prince bowed and said, "Father, when I returned to the mansion last night, I was really drunk. I fell several times while walking in the garden. Not only was there any injuries on my face, but also on my body, so this was really just an accident."

Chen Xiao said at this time, "No, Second Prince, you are too careless. How could you fall in your back garden while walking? I was really careless."

The second prince looked at Chen Xiao and said, "What Mr. Chen said is that I am really careless and I believe there will be no more in the future."

Chen Xiao smiled: "Is that so, then you have to pay more attention from now on. Don't make a scar on your face again? It would be a bit embarrassing to say it on this hall, hahaha."

The second prince also forced a smile and said:

"Thank you, Lord Chen, for reminding you that such incidents will never happen again in the future."

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Chen Xuan has a very meaning to target the second prince!

But the second prince seemed to have difficulties, and he was talking to Chen Xiaoshi on the surface.

However, the second prince was unwilling to say more about this matter, and the emperor seemed not ready to ask more questions!

Of course, the ministers didn't know what to say!

Here, the seventh prince couldn't help but turn his head away and showed a knowing smile!

Others may not know, but as a veteran, he can see it at a glance!

He was sure that the second prince must have suffered a loss with Chen Xiao.

He could even guess that the wounds on the face and the injuries on the body of the second prince were definitely from Chen Xiao’s hands!

Chen Xiao is a typical person who is cheap and acts good-looking.

If the second prince's scars had nothing to do with Chen Xiao, Chen Xiao would definitely not stand up and talk about it with such relish, based on the seventh prince's understanding of Chen Xiao.

In fact, even the Seventh Prince can see this. So what if he is as smart as an emperor, he can't see it?

This is also the reason why he didn't continue to delve into it. He understood Chen Xiao and understood that Chen Xiao would not beat the second prince for no reason!

Therefore, there must be clues about this matter. It is difficult to ask in public. Giving the second prince a step, giving Chen Xiao a step, and giving the royal family a step.

Thinking of this, the emperor took the initiative to open up the topic and took out several memorials in his hand and talked them in a focused manner.

The content of the memorial is nothing more than disaster reports in some surrounding areas, border governance, and management issues of cities sent by the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom.

There are some trivial matters. After all these matters were discussed, it was already noon.

When the emperor left, he asked Chen Xiao to stay and have dinner together.

In the eyes of the ministers, it was just that the emperor wanted to keep his future son-in-law for a meal!

But in Chen Xiao's opinion, this is not the case.

He knew that the emperor must ask him about the second prince!

As expected, I said I was having a meal, but I went to the Imperial Study Room.

After entering the imperial study room, Chen Xiao licked his face and said:

"Didn't Your Majesty say you should use lunch? Why did you come to the Imperial Study Room? Wouldn't it be a good idea to eat here?"

The emperor glanced at Chen Xiao, snorted and said:

"You beat my son again, and you still want to eat? Do you want to eat the board?"

Chen Xiao smiled awkwardly and said, "This is really something that I can't hide from you. With you, I don't even have the intention to argue."

The emperor snorted and said, "You can't be vague here with me. Tell me, what's going on?"

Chen Xiao stood up honestly and said:

"Last night, after the dinner, I was intercepted by the second prince on the street. He asked me to help him...you know!"

"But I wasn't very willing to get involved in these things, so I refused. Such rejections have happened several times, but he didn't seem to give up.

Last night, his attitude was very firm. If I didn't want to help him, I would have to die, so I let his subordinates kill me.

I had to resist, so I beat the second prince. Your Majesty, I should be right from my perspective."

The emperor's frown slowly stretched a little, saying:

"In this way, it became a trivial matter for you to beat him, but his approach seems to me not wise."

Chen Xiao smiled and said, "If he knew that I told you about this, he would definitely regret hiding this morning. After all, you know everything, but he suffered a loss!"

The emperor snorted and said, "With your personality, I took the initiative to provoke this in the morning court today. Isn't it obvious that you beat him? You are so good at taking advantage of it, it's really common for you to behave yourself."

Chen Xiao smiled awkwardly and said, "Your Majesty, can we have a meal?"

The emperor had no choice but to say, "The imperial kitchen is ready. By the way, I asked you to go. I want you to check the Arsenal Department!"

Chen Xiao also remembered and said, "Your Majesty, why do you doubt this Arsenal?"
