Chapter 228
King Lie soon arrived at the maple forest.
Thanks to the fact that he had been to Prince Zhao's Palace more than once, he still had some impression of this place.
I know this place is very beautiful, especially in late autumn when the maple leaves turn deep red and the scenery looks very different.
Hehe, choosing this place, King Lie began to look forward to it along the way. This concubine Ji has a bad temper, but she is still good at choosing a place.
It is said that Concubine Ji’s ex-fiancé was a poor scholar?
When he got there, he would first write two poems and let Concubine Ji judge whose writing talent was the best.
By the way, he had once happened to take a look at the poems written by that scholar. They were similar to those written by ordinary scholars, quite mechanical and without much to recommend them.
She is not even as talented as the mere concubine in his mansion.
If the concubine Zeng in his house was a man, with her intelligence, she would definitely be granted a title of nobility and become a prime minister.
Of course, King Lie looked at Concubine Zeng from the perspective of a woman.
Men and women have different education since childhood. It is extraordinary for a woman to reach this level now.
While his mind was wandering, King Lie had already arrived at the maple forest.
He shook off the troublesome hem of his clothes and rushed in hastily.
"My little beauty, the king is here!"
King Lie soon arrived at the stone table.
"Xiao Mei... huh?"
He paused and looked at the brothers who were standing or sitting past him.
There was a young man tied up in front of the brothers, and everyone was looking at him.
King Lie took a tactical step back.
"Why are you here? I'm leaving first."
"Wait!"
King Zhao called him and said, "Fourth brother, please stay. Aren't you looking for the little beauty?"
He raised his finger and pointed at the tied-up man with dignity.
The man had a bruised face and nose, and was wearing tattered pink clothes. He was thin and had a greasy face. His hands and feet were tied, and his mouth was stuffed with someone's smelly socks.
After just one look, King Lie was disgusted.
"What kind of little beauty is this?"
"Oh?"
King Zhao looked at him with a half-smile: "Then Fourth Brother, you are not looking for him, but you are shouting 'little beauty' so loudly. Who is this little beauty referring to?"
"Why can't I say this? Even if I say it, you will be embarrassed, Third Brother."
King Zhao remained calm and unmoved: "I am not afraid of losing face, fourth brother, just go ahead."
King Lie smiled and said, "Third brother, you are so happy!"
He didn't hide it. It was obvious that the girl had deceived him. Couldn't he fight back?
"I'm not afraid that my third brother will know. It was Concubine Ji from my third brother's house who gave me a note.
This prince thought that the little beauty was useless to the third brother, so she fell in love with me, so she came here reluctantly. I also wanted to help the third brother. It was all out of kindness, and there was no other intention."
Everyone said "Pah" in their hearts.
Is it considered kind to cheat on someone?
That's very kind.
King Lie actively produced evidence, "Look, this is the note that the little beauty gave me, and it has this address on it. What else could it mean if it's not this?"
When the others saw the note, they were stunned.
King Lie looked at their faces, shook the note in his hand, and said jokingly: "Speaking of which, why are you here? Don't you have this note too?"
After he finished speaking, everyone looked very strange.
Don't say it, really don't say it.
They took out a similar little note from their sleeves, chests, sachets, and even hair crowns.
Not even a single word of the address has been changed.
Look at each other's notes.
Everyone: "..."
King Lie reacted quickly and looked at King Zhao angrily: "Well, Third Brother, you and that little girl deliberately tricked us to come here, right?"
All of a sudden, King Lie changed from a lustful man to a simple, pitiful person who was deceived.
The others didn't take out the notes at first because they felt guilty.
After all, they were about to cuckold King Zhao, so they only said that they met by chance, thinking that the beautiful girl was planning to date them secretly, and they didn't want to expose her.
but!
As soon as they came in, they saw a dirty man with his penis exposed, his fat thighs shaking, lying on the ground in thick leaves with a lewd smile on his face, making strange poses.
This scene was something that the princes and nobles, who had grown up in luxury and fine clothes, could not bear to see. It was so shocking that they beat the man up immediately.
Amid the man's cries, he ordered his men to tie him up.
After that, no one wanted to leave first, so the situation remained at a stalemate.
Now that everyone sees so many identical notes, what else is there to not understand?
They were tricked by that little beauty, and it was a case of using a knife to kill someone!
After hearing King Lie's accusation, everyone looked at King Zhao, the only calm and composed person present.
Shock!
You two teamed up to trick them into seeing your dick exposed!
"Third brother, you can't deal with this little thief, so you want to ask the brothers for help?"
"Third brother, if you need help with this, you should have told me earlier! I will help you if I can."
"There's really no need to be so mysterious. We, the younger brothers, have no obligation to take on Third Brother's business."
King Zhao raised his eyelids and took a look at the faces of these people: "When you first came in, I had already advised you to leave. Who listened?"
Everyone: “…” We just got here and haven’t figured out the situation yet!
As early as the beginning, he did not see Ji Yunqing, but saw a group of brothers born by his father. He knew that he had taken the blame for the Ji family again.
Looking at the whole mansion, only Ji was bold enough to use him to ward off disaster for himself.
This is not the first time, King Zhao is very calm.
When he saw the wretched man, he even thought to himself that it was a good thing that Ji did not try to be so arrogant.
Suddenly, there was some movement outside the woods.
"Oh, don't pull me, I don't want to go, go by yourself"
"Sister, the prince is in there, go and have a look. I also saw Ruirui. That silly kid was hugging another woman and calling her mother.
Who knows, one day in the future, the prince might give Ruirui to the newcomer to raise."
"How is this possible? Your Highness is not a brainless landlord. How could he do such a lowly thing?" Ji Yunqing tried his best to refute: "Don't make up stories about Your Highness."
"I'm telling the truth. The woman was wearing a pink dress and looked very delicate."
Everyone looked at the only man in pink.
The gaze includes observation and exploration.
"...Can this be seen as delicate?"
"Did we hit the wrong guy? In fact, this man is your hidden love interest, Third Brother?"
"Third brother, your hobby is too unique, isn't it?"
"If the emperor knew about this, I'm afraid he wouldn't agree with it!"
Everyone started calculating in their minds.
Which one is more refreshing: King Zhao liking men or King Zhao liking brothers?
Can you make the emperor unacceptable and make the ministers switch to others?
King Zhao's originally calm face became increasingly darker for some reason. He rubbed his throbbing temple and shouted in a deep voice, "Come in!"
