The fire in the Qin Palace was surging, attracting attention than any lantern. At the same time, almost all the people in the capital were looking around the direction of the Qin Palace. Those who were close enough could hear Wang Dian's crazy laughter, and those who were far away ran to the streets or climbed to the walls, trying to see more clearly.

Jingzhao Yin and the night patrol guards were both alarmed and rushed to the Qin Palace one after another. Ordinary thieves set fire and arrested him, but the one who set fire tonight was the King of Chu. Jingzhao Yin, Lord Qian, hesitated until Prince Shou brought the unconscious King of Chu to the carriage. Lord Qian gritted his teeth and bent over and asked King Shou: "Prince, how should the officials explain to the emperor?"

Zhao Heng stood in front of the carriage with his back facing away from the Qin Prince's Mansion, his face hidden in the darkness, only his side face was illuminated by the fire, sometimes bright and sometimes dark.

"The King of Chu is in a coma, and will return home for the time being. There will be a conclusion on the morning court tomorrow."

The voice was cold and calm, but with the prince's innate majesty, Lord Qian silently retreated behind after he got the words.

Eunuch Kang walked over with Feng Zheng who was sobbing in a low voice.

Zhao Heng avoided his sister-in-law and waited for her sister-in-law to get on the carriage. He whispered to Eunuch Kang: "Your Highness, why did it happen?"

Eunuch Kang knelt on the ground and described everything that happened in the Chu Palace.

On the Mid-Autumn Festival night festival, two dolls, and just a few words, Zhao Heng realized that his brother had been plotted by others.

"Go to the palace to meet the saint and explain it truthfully." Zhao Heng said coldly. After saying that, he turned over and escorted his brother and sister-in-law back to the Chu Prince's Mansion.

Eunuch Kang followed Lord Qian from Jingzhao Yin into the palace in a dilemma. Emperor Xuande naturally had received the news long ago and saw the fire above the Qin Palace with his own eyes. He was watching outside, looking out with his hands behind his back. The eunuch Wang En stood behind him, and the guards in front of him were also silent.

Eunuch Kang, Lord Qian was brought over. Lord Qian only stated who set fire and King Shou's interference. Eunuch Kang knelt down and kowtowed in tears: "Your Majesty, the prince is wronged. Tonight, the prince and the princess took two young masters to enjoy the moon. It was fine, but no one deliberately set fire in the garden to worship the emperor's uncle..."

When Emperor Xuande heard this, he also guessed that something was wrong. But at this moment, Emperor Xuande had no intention of exploring who was trying to stimulate his son. Emperor Xuande only knew that his son was crazy again because of the emperor's uncle, and this time it was even more trouble. The King of Chu burned the Qin Palace and worshiped the emperor's uncle loudly. The whole capital knew about it. I guess the reputation of the King of Chu's loyalty will be revealed tomorrow.

The King of Chu values ​​love, so what is the emperor who has deprived his younger brother of the throne?

Someone deliberately reminded his son that it was true, but if the son had not resented him and hated him in his heart, the fire in the Qin Palace would not have been burned.

Once, twice, three times... Emperor Xuande could not remember how many times he indulged his son, and was disappointed and sad again and again. Now, his heart was as calm as water, and there was no turmoil at all. In fact, when he was angry before, he was unwilling to give up. He was not willing to be able to compare with an uncle in his son's heart. Now, as long as he recognizes this, he will not be angry and just think that he has raised a son in vain.

Without saying anything, Emperor Xuande returned to the bedroom alone.

Chu King's Mansion.

Feng Zheng held Brother Sheng who refused to go to bed and was standing beside the bed. Both the mother and the mother were crying quietly. Zhao Heng was originally guarding one side, but later he couldn't hear the cry of his sister-in-law and nephew. He turned around and walked behind the screen, stood with his back to the other side, frowned. It was almost the third day, and Eunuch Kang poked his head at the door. When Zhao Heng saw it, he walked out silently.

"Prince, everyone in the mansion has been tried. A total of six are suspected. They were sentenced, but they refused to plead guilty." Zong Ze reported in a low voice.

Zhao Heng could not trust anyone in the Chu Palace now, so he sent his confidants to investigate the matter thoroughly.

"Continue to judge and leave a living mouth." Zhao Heng said in a deep voice.

"Yes." Zong Ze received the order and lowered his head and retreated. Zhao Heng watched his subordinates leave. Suddenly, he heard the voice of his sister-in-law coming from the inner room. He quickly turned back to the inner room, and walked quickly, worried that his brother would hurt his sister-in-law and nephew.

"Prince?" The man on the bed opened his eyes. Feng Zheng instinctively pulled Brother Sheng behind him and blocked him. Then he called out worriedly with his swollen eyes, nervously observing the change of her husband's expression.

The King of Chu was a little dizzy and looked at his wife blankly. When he heard the footsteps, he slowly turned his head and saw his younger brother frowning and walking over. Facing his younger brother's complicated gaze, the King of Chu finally remembered, remembering what had happened in the past six months, and what he had done tonight. Pain, regret, confusion, and all kinds of emotions came to his heart. The King of Chu finally looked at his wife, and an apology smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Prince..." Seeing that her husband had never forgotten her, Feng Zheng burst into tears and rushed over and leaned on him.

"Father..." Brother Sheng cried all night, his voice hoarse, and he followed his mother. The King of Chu sat up, hugged one in one hand, hugged it tightly, and apologized in a hoarse manner: "It's my fault, I'm worried about you."

Feng Zheng and his mother burst into tears.

Zhao Heng lowered his eyes and prepared to go out to avoid it first.

"Third brother." The King of Chu held his wife and son. Yu Guang saw his younger brother leaving, and he suddenly shouted.

Zhao Heng paused his feet, and his black eyes looked at his brother without waves, without any harshness, but the King of Chu felt extremely guilty. He was the brother, but his brother had fucked so much and had suffered from flesh and blood. Knowing that the night was getting deep, the King of Chu sincerely advised: "It's getting late, the third brother should go back first, don't worry your brother and sister."

Zhao Heng did not move and frowned: "In the palace..."

The King of Chu smiled self-deprecatingly, and noticed that his wife's shoulders were stiff in her arms. The King of Chu patted her gently and said to his younger brother calmly: "I hurt people, I release fire, and if my father wants to beat and punish me, I am willing to be punished. The third brother lives with his younger brother and sister with peace of mind, and no longer has to worry about your elder brother. If you live a peaceful life, I don't have to worry about anything anymore."

Zhao Heng knew that his brother would not die, and his father even saved his life and would never take his brother's life. However, at this time, his brother said in a tone of telling him about his life and death. Zhao Heng could not stand it. He suddenly turned sideways, stood with his back to his brother, and raised his head slightly. Seeing his younger brother like this, the King of Chu moved his mouth, but he couldn't persuade him, and said quietly: "I'm sorry to you, my elder brother."

My younger brother advised him countless times, but what he said was right. He couldn't let go and couldn't help but let go, and let him down.

Zhao Heng closed his eyes and said for a while: "There are some people tonight who deliberately provoked them. My elder brother insisted... I forgot to set fire and forgot to leave the house. Maybe I could escape the crime by chance." The father knew his brother's crazy. As long as the brother continued to pretend to be stupid and pretended to forget everything tonight, the father's anger may not hold him accountable because his brother did it because he was unintentional.

Feng Zheng listened and even swallowed her husband, saying, "Prince, you can't remember what happened after the fire in the garden."

Brother Sheng didn't understand what his father and third uncle were saying. He raised his head, a five-year-old boy with tears in his eyes, clear and innocent.

The King of Chu touched his son's head and asked with a wry smile: "Brother Sheng, do you want your father to lie and deceive the emperor and grandfather?"

Brother Sheng blinked in confusion: "Why do you want to deceive the emperor's grandfather?" His mother said that the lying child is not a good child.

The King of Chu smiled and said softly: "The father caused trouble and made the emperor and grandfather angry."

Brother Sheng turned his head to look at his mother, and Feng Zheng's tears rolled silently, but he did not interfere with the father-son dialogue.

"Father will admit his mistake, but if the father admits his mistake, the emperor's grandfather will forgive you." Sheng Ge'er said seriously. When he was in the palace, he broke the emperor's grandfather's tea bowl, but the emperor's grandfather did not punish him. In Sheng Ge'er's eyes, the emperor's grandfather was a very loving old man.

The King of Chu held his son to his lap, hugged him and asked, "Then, if the emperor and grandfather refused to forgive his father, he would punish him, and Sheng Ge'er would also be punished with his father. Is Sheng Ge'er afraid?"

Brother Sheng cried and hugged his father in tears, tears fell down one by one: "Don't punish the father, the emperor and grandfather are not punished..."

"You just say you are afraid of being punished with your father." The King of Chu asked while holding his son's little face.

Brother Sheng shook his head, not afraid, he was only afraid that the emperor's grandfather would take him to the palace and not allow him to see his father.

The eldest son was filial and sensible. The King of Chu was relieved. He looked to his wife's face and asked silently. Feng Zheng understood what her husband meant, wiped his tears, and looked at him with attachment: "I will accompany the prince if he wants to do whatever he wants to do. Wherever the prince is going, I will go with the prince." As long as the husband remembers her and her sons, she will not be afraid of anything.

"Good wife." The King of Chu pulled the woman he had chosen into his arms, hugged her tightly, kissed her head, and then looked at his younger brother who was a few steps away.

Zhao Heng's eyes were full of complexity.

The King of Chu looked relaxed, hugged his wife and son and said to his younger brother, "Third brother, since my cousin died, I have never been as down-to-earth as I am today. I have done everything I can to my cousin and uncle, and I have made a clear conscience from now on. I have let my father down and let my father down and I have failed my father's love and expectations. I am not worthy of being his son. If I continue to pretend to be sick and deceive my father, I will feel uneasy. Really, I would rather my father punish me. The heavier he punishes me, the happier I feel. Your sister-in-law doesn't blame me, the only thing I am ashamed of is you."

Zhao Heng didn't want to listen, so he memorized it again.

The King of Chu smiled and advised: "Go back, my brother and sister must be waiting."

"Brother, have you decided?" Zhao Heng asked slowly, his voice hoarse.

The King of Chu immediately said, "Well, how can I pass by comfortably? The palace is not suitable for me." He would never be able to do the principles my younger brother told him.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Heng lifted his foot and left, and disappeared in an instant at the door of the inner room.

The next morning, before dawn, all the civil and military officials were lined up outside the hall. Before the King of Chu arrived, everyone's eyes fell on the side of the civil ministers, and were standing behind King Rui. Zhao Heng lowered his eyes and stood quietly. King Rui and King Gong asked him about the condition of King Chu. Zhao Heng remained motionless and spoke without saying a word, ruthlessly alienated, as if the statue of King Shou carved in jade.

"Your Highness, King Chu, is here!"

The eunuch behind him heard a loud news, and everyone turned around. Even Zhao Heng turned sideways in a complicated mood.

At dawn, it was about to be bright. In the dim morning light, the King of Chu strode in a black princely dynasty suit, with a handsome face and a majestic spirit, ignoring the strange look of civil officials and generals, and walked closer and closer, nodding to his younger brother, King Shou, then walked to the forefront of the general, put his hands in front of him, and looked up at the front of him.

Behind the King of Chu, there was a silence.

Why was the King of Chu crazy and why he set fire? All civil and military officials knew it well. A prince who was particularly favored by the emperor and a prince who firmly occupied the position of crown prince had repeatedly angered the emperor for such anger. Some people regretted that the King of Chu was embarrassed by the great responsibility, some mocked the King of Chu for his ignorance, and some were gloating. However, facing the tall figure of the King of Chu who stood up like a mountain, those men who claimed to be smart and sleek could not help but feel a little admiration.

How many people in the world can see clearly the throne? Throughout history, many heroes have fought for the dragon throne and forgotten their affection. But today there is a prince in the Great Zhou Dynasty who despised the throne exchanged for the blood of his relatives. He would rather give up the throne and fulfill his friendship. It is sad, lamentable, respectable.

The righteousness of the King of Chu who seemed to admit his guilt and actually did not regret it, wiped out the last hint of unbearableness in Emperor Xuande's heart.

In the morning court, the King of Chu took the initiative to admit that he was disrespectful to the order, arson, and arson, and spoke nonsense. He had all the evidence and evidence. Emperor Xuande destroyed his relatives for justice, deprived him of the title of Prince of Chu, and demoted him to a commoner. The whole family was sent to Junzhou to settle the place, and he could not return to the capital without an imperial edict. The King of Chu kowtowed the head and ordered him to be ordered, King Rui, King Shou, King Gong and the civil and military officials of the court knelt down and begged the emperor to take back Cheng's orders and keep the King of Chu's family in the capital.

Emperor Xuande refused and left the court with anger.
