Chapter 2204: Chapter 2204: Naturally, We Must Drag Them Down with Us
He kowtowed to Emperor Ziyan, speaking with a steely face.
In his heart, he thought that once he saw the person who had accused him, he would definitely tear the accuser to pieces!
“Does anyone else need to tell
about this matter?” Emperor Ziyan furrowed his brows and questioned harshly.
Yin Lvqing was stunned for a mont, almost unable to grasp the aning in his father’s words.
What did that an? Could it be that no one had actually accused him? That Emperor Ziyan had summoned him to the palace and pinned everything on him was simply the Emperor’s own suspicion?
If that was the case, then he was truly… he was truly astonished.
“Father, your son is truly wronged, I really have done nothing of the sort.”
“You’ve done nothing?”
Emperor Ziyan eyed Yin Lvqing coldly, clearly disbelieving his words.
“Yes, Father, your son has not done those things,” Yin Lvqing quickly nodded in agreent.
“At the imperial tombs, your son was always on the nearby mountains tracking down the bandits’ traces, I simply had no ti to do such things.
Perhaps it was soone else, soone else’s doing. Just now, Father ntioned Fifth Brother, perhaps it was indeed his doing—this cannot be known for sure. Father, you cannot simply assu that your son has the audacity to blast the imperial tombs just because I’ve done a few wrongs in the past.
Father, why not summon Fifth Brother to the palace and ask him if he has done it?”
Of course, he knew even if Prince Niu had done it, just like him, he would never admit to it.
But at least it could help delay the ti, allowing himself to co up with a foolproof plan to extricate himself from this affair.
Heavens, he really hasn’t done anything!
“Tsk.”
Emperor Ziyan let out a scoff.
This ‘good’ son of his, truly thinks he can be so easily deceived.
“Do you really think your Fifth Brother would have the nerve to blow up the entire imperial tombs? Hmm?”
Yin Lvqing choked on Emperor Ziyan’s light and breezy voice.
Indeed.
Even he didn’t believe his own Fifth Brother, who always spat out whatever ca to mind when flattered, and constantly sought after won, could pull off such an act of blasting the imperial tombs.
Probably he doesn’t even know what a demonic body is?
But what he believes in his heart is one thing; how he should express himself in front of Emperor Ziyan is another matter.
At this mont, being innocent himself and struggling to protect his own position, how could he possibly defend Prince Niu?
Right now, he wished he could drag several brothers into the water with him, so that Emperor Ziyan would not focus on him alone over this matter.
And Prince Niu, obviously an ineffectual slob, still managed to receive Emperor Ziyan’s favor, which shows he has a place in Emperor Ziyan’s heart.
Such a person, at a critical mont like this, naturally needs to be dragged into the mire.
Not to drag Prince Niu into this ss would be a disservice to himself.
“How can Father be so sure that Fifth Brother wouldn’t do such a thing? Perhaps his foolish appearance is all an act?” he said with a struggle.
Emperor Ziyan: “…”
He almost wished he could crack open his son’s head right before him to see what was really in there!
If his Fifth Son was really just acting, then why would Yin Lvqing spend so much effort on him?
Or else, would Yin Lvqing treat a clever person as a fool and mock him for so long?
This obvious act of dragging others down with him, does he think everyone else is a fool, really not seeing through it at all?
