Shocking! The Crown Prince and the Grand Tutor Got Together! – Chapter 07

Chapter 7 I’m going to make trouble!

The rich and heavy smell of ambergris hit him in the face and penetrated into Shen Zhejiang’s nasal cavity, causing him to frown slightly without leaving a trace.

Step in.

The place that I haven’t been to for ten years seems to be no different from before, but it seems to have changed too much. The memories of the past swept in along with the white smoke rising from the incense burner, and together with it, it dug up the blood stains hidden in the deepest part of Chenzhe River –

“My father did not collude with King Shen to rebel. I ask Your Majesty to see clearly.”

A heavy nod of the head.

For the first time in his life, the seventeen-year-old boy bent his proud back and knelt on the cold floor, in the shadow where no one could see him, his eyelashes trembling.

Beg for mercy for his father.

“The evidence is conclusive, Shen Zhiyuan has confessed to it, what else do you have to argue?”

Wu Kundi’s cold voice floated above his head. It was as light as a feather, but it felt like a thousand pounds pressing on Shen Zhejiang’s back.

“I beg Your Majesty to show mercy.”

“Give mercy?”

Shen Zhejiang felt someone approaching him and held his breath, as if a thorn in his back.

“Sparing your life is the greatest favor I have ever given you, Chen Zhejiang, you’d better not be ungrateful.”

What happened next?

The door was tightly closed. Shen Zhejiang, who was driven outside by the eunuch, scratched the crack of the door tightly, breaking his skin and staining it with blood.

Even if there was only a glimmer of hope left, he refused to give up.

But how could the young boy’s frail body fight against a group of people?

He watched helplessly as his fingers were pried apart inch by inch, as if the lives of more than a hundred people in the Shen family were slipping away in front of him.

In the end, I was unable to see my father for the last time, and there was nothing I could do to save him.

“Here they come?”

This voice brought Shen Zhejiang back to his senses and he broke out in a cold sweat.

Emperor Wu Kun, sitting on a carved wooden chair, overlapped with the high-handed man ten years ago. Shen Zhejiang bowed his head and said, “Your Majesty, I have seen you.”

Emperor Wu Kun hummed lightly and asked, “Do you know why I called you here?” Shen Zhejiang

replied, “I don’t know.”

Emperor Wu Kun frowned and threw the memorial in his hand directly to the feet of Shen Zhejiang, saying, “Pick it up and read it yourself.” Shen Zhejiang

picked it up expressionlessly, glanced at it briefly, and secretly felt relieved. It was just an impeachment that he had an intimate relationship with the Crown Prince, and was afraid that he had the intention of misleading the emperor to gain favor.

There was a reason for this. Xiao Zhinian rescued him from the river yesterday and was seen by the gossipy censors.

Shen Zhejiang closed the memorial, raised his eyes, paused and said, “I have nothing to say.”

Emperor Wu Kun did not expect him to admit it so frankly. He knocked on the table and said, “Anyone with a discerning eye can see that he treats you differently from others. Unfortunately, the prince is young and his mind is not stable enough. Sometimes he cannot see through good and evil, loyalty and treachery, and is inevitably tempted.” Shen

Zhejiang stood where he was, his fingertips began to feel cold, but his face remained calm: “I am wrong and have not fulfilled my responsibilities as a teacher. If Your Majesty wants to choose another teacher for the prince, I have no objection.”

Emperor Wu Kun snorted coldly: “If the prince had not specifically asked you to teach, do you think you could still have a place in the court?”

Shen Zhejiang said nothing.

“In the current secular ethics, you are already a criminal, and you are also the prince’s tutor. You don’t want the prince to be criticized before he has even established his foothold, and to bear the infamy for thousands of years.”

“…What does your majesty mean?”

“You are not young anymore. The eldest daughter of the military palace is still unmarried, and she is a perfect match for you. I will arrange a marriage for you, and choose a date for the wedding,” Emperor Wu Kun stared at Chen Zhejiang with a hawk-like, sinister look, “Let the prince give up this idea. When he is a few years older, he will understand my good intentions.” Shen

Zhejiang’s eyes widened slightly, and he was about to say something in resistance when something seemed to fall to the ground behind him.

“Bang!”

The door panel fell to the ground, creating a gust of wind that blew away the ambergris.

“Your Highness! His Majesty is discussing matters with Lord Shen, you cannot go in!”

“Get out! You old servant are so audacious that you dare to stop me!”

“Your Highness! Your Highness!”

Xiao Zhinian rushed in, and was relieved to see that Shen Zhejiang was intact. He breathed a sigh of relief, smiled at Shen Zhejiang and said, “Sir, so you are here. I have been waiting for you for a long time, and I thought you disappeared halfway. Fortunately, you are fine.”

Emperor Wu Kun was furious. He slapped his palm on the table, shaking the memorials piled on it three times, and said angrily, “Rebellious son! Get out! Can’t you see I am here?”

“Why are you yelling so loudly? I’m not deaf, I heard it,” Xiao Zhinian picked his ears, turned to Emperor Wu Kun and grinned, “I haven’t settled the score with you yet. What are you planning to do by taking my teacher away!”

Emperor Wu Kun was furious and cursed, “I’m your father!”

Xiao Zhinian was not to be outdone and replied, “I’m your uncle!”

The King of Yan Dynasty and the Crown Prince of Yan Dynasty openly challenged each other in the imperial study with glaring eyes. If this got out, the people would probably laugh their heads off.

The serving eunuchs were horrified and fell to their knees, wishing they could chop their ears off.

Shen Zhejiang grabbed Xiao Zhinian’s shoulder from behind and scolded in a low voice: “Your Highness, you must not be rude to the elders and the inferiors.”

Xiao Zhinian then restrained himself a little, like a wolf cub that was pacified. He turned to Shen Zhejiang and said: “I will listen to you, sir. Let’s go.”

As he said that, he was about to pull Shen Zhejiang away.

Emperor Wu Kun pointed at him and said, “Get back here!”

“Get out of here, get out of here, do you think I’m a polo ball?” Xiao Zhinian turned around and stood in front of Shen Zhejiang. He was obviously not as tall as the other person, but he didn’t allow others to get close to his territory. He raised his chin and asked, “What else do you want to say? Tell me quickly.”

Emperor Wu Kun was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. He was too lazy to compete with that rebellious son. His eyes flashing with flames shifted to Shen Zhejiang: “I have said what I want. You should go back to the mansion and prepare as soon as possible. I will ask the Astronomical Observatory to calculate an auspicious day.” Shen

Zhejiang’s lips trembled. The words that came to his lips again and again were swallowed back into his throat. He suppressed his anger and finally agreed.

“Your Majesty, I obey your order.”

“Your Highness does not allow it!”

They spoke almost at the same time.

Shen Zhejiang glanced at Xiao Zhinian, then turned around and walked outside quickly, disgusted with staying in this space filled with such a strong fragrance.

“Sir! Wait for me!”

Xiao Zhinian took a step and was about to chase him, but Emperor Wu Kun waved his hand, and Hai Sanqing understood and immediately brought the eunuchs to stop him.

“How dare you! Let me go! All of you get out of here! Sir! Sir! ”

Seeing Chen Zhejiang walking further and further away, Xiao Zhinian roared loudly, as if a young animal locked in a cage was struggling frantically, his eyes were bloodshot and he looked extremely helpless.

The wooden tables and chairs around were scattered all over the floor.

Emperor Wu Kun looked down upon the farce below and said in a deep voice, “Take him back to Yanqing Palace and keep a good look after him. Reflect on your words and deeds for me. The Crown Prince is not acting like a Crown Prince. It seems that I have spoiled you too much!”
