Chapter 942: Cheeky
It is indeed irrelevant, one is the eighth prince of a supreme minister, and the other is the leader of the two demon sects, these two people who are 108,000 miles apart inexplicably make Xiao Zhang think together.
If you want to talk about appearance, the appearance of the two is very different, if you want to talk about the voice, the two are also very different, the only factor that can make Xiao Zhang associate the two together is that the two people have an extremely similar temperament, a temperament that cannot be described in words.
Xiao Zhang was pondering, but was slapped on the back of the head by the eighth prince and woke up.
"You stinky boy, this king talks to you, and you dare to be absent-minded. "The Eighth Prince is obviously joking.
Xiao Zhang immediately bowed and saluted, and smiled apologetically: "Please forgive the Eighth Prince." ”
"Well, it doesn't matter. This king is not a narrow-minded man. The eighth prince said with a smile, and then saw the Lan Xiang on Xiao Zhang's back, "Oh, my little niece, how are you hurt?"
Lan Xiang smiled slightly and said, "It's not injured, it's just that I lost my strength." ”
Instead of being sad, the eighth prince nodded and said, "It's okay, the girl's family, what kind of cultivation do you cultivate, let's prepare to get married." ”
Then, the eighth prince suddenly remembered something, and said: "I said the emperor, you are not authentic, the two heroes returned, but you did not give a seat, it is simply chilling!"
Only then did the emperor remember, and immediately beckoned Wei Zhong outside to prepare two soft couches and place them in the study.
Xiao Zhang carefully put Lan Xiang in the soft collapse and sat down, but he himself did not sit, ready to give it to the Eighth Prince, he felt that the Eighth Prince, more and more like San Siro.
The eighth prince smiled and excused himself, and at this time, Wei Zhong came in again to report: "Your Majesty, the Prime Minister and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ask to see you." ”
The smile on the emperor's face suddenly disappeared, and his voice cooled: "What are they doing here?"
Wei Zhong said: "I just said that there is something important to start." ”
The Emperor sighed helplessly and said, "Let them in." ”
"It's really disappointing, this king has taken a step first. The eighth prince looked very unhappy, and after speaking, he turned around and left the imperial study.
A moment later, Huang Guozhong and the crown prince walked into the imperial study, and when they saw Xiao Zhang, their eyes looked like they were about to eat Xiao Zhang, but it was only for a moment, after all, in front of the emperor, they couldn't show too much emotion.
The emperor was very unhappy, and asked in a cold voice: "The prime minister suddenly asked to see him, what is the matter?"
The emperor only mentioned Huang Guozhong in his words, but he directly ignored the prince, which is enough to see that the emperor is extremely dissatisfied with the prince now.
The prince was embarrassed, his face was purple and black like an eggplant, and the muscles on his cheeks were tense, obviously clenching his teeth.
Huang Guozhong could naturally hear that the emperor's tone was full of unwelcome, but as an old fritter in the officialdom, he still behaved very self-contained: "Back to Your Majesty, when I heard that Princess Lanxiang had returned victoriously, the old minister couldn't help but be overjoyed, so he couldn't help but come to congratulate." ”
"Oh? The emperor sneered, "Xiang'er returned without notifying anyone, how did the prime minister know?"
Huang Guozhong was speechless for a moment, he couldn't say that his eyes were all over the soul capital, right? After a long time, he said: "It was the old minister's house slave who saw Princess Lanxiang on the street, so he reported it to the old minister, so the old minister ......."
"Okay, okay, let's talk about something. The emperor's face was full of impatience, "Today is my family matter, so I won't bother the prime minister." ”
Huang Guozhong's face was red and white, as the prime minister of a country, the emperor has always given him face, but today he was cold and cold, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
"Your Majesty. Huang Guozhong gritted his teeth and said, "The old minister was only excited for a while, but he unexpectedly displeased His Majesty, and hoped that His Majesty would forgive him." ”
The emperor didn't pay attention to Huang Guozhong anymore, but picked up the teacup on the table, as if he wanted to drink tea, but he just admired the tea leaves slowly stretched in the teacup, which was an obvious eviction order.
Huang Guozhong obviously understood this detail, but he had no intention of leaving, but lowered his head and began to admire his uppers, as if to check the uppers for dust.
At this time, the crown prince finally mustered up the courage, stepped forward and bowed and said, "Father, the emperor ......"
"There is only His Majesty here, and there is no Father. The emperor said coldly.
The prince trembled, was silent for a moment, and said, "Your Majesty, the minister heard that Sister Xiang'er has returned to Beijing, so he came to congratulate him. ”
The emperor didn't raise his head, continued to admire the tea leaves in the teacup, and asked, "Is it also the house slave who saw Xiang'er and reported to you?"
The crown prince was already sweating on his forehead, but he had to bite the bullet and say, "No, it was the minister who saw Xiang'er with his own eyes." ”
The emperor put down the teacup, sighed and said, "The two of you have learned the news of Xiang'er's return to Beijing, and you have come to congratulate you together. If nothing else, let him step aside. ”
The eviction order has been issued to this point, even if the guest is thick-skinned, I am afraid that he will not have the face to stay, but these two people seem to have no skin and no face, and they just don't leave.
Finally, Huang Guozhong broke the silence and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has a few questions to ask Deputy Head Xiao. ”
As if not hearing, the Emperor picked up the teacup again.
Xiao Zhang smiled coldly and said very unceremoniously: "The two of you are really not thin-skinned, Your Majesty has issued several eviction orders, you can still stand here, admire, admire!"
Huang Guozhong's anger had been suppressed for a long time, and after Xiao Zhang's anger, he finally couldn't stop: "Xiao Zhang, how can you speak here? You just have to answer the old man's question, hum, I'm afraid, you won't be able to laugh after a few questions." ”
Xiao Zhang naturally knew that Huang Guozhong was not holding back his pee, so he said: "Your Majesty has already said that today is a family matter of the royal family, and you can find me again in private if there is anything." ”
Huang Guozhong sneered: "Today's matter is finished today, and the old man's question must be asked to you in front of His Majesty, so that you can give advice without reservation." ”
Xiao Zhang sighed, but did not speak, looked at the emperor, waiting for the emperor's attitude.
At this time, the crown prince was not to be outdone, and said: "Xiao Zhang, this palace also has a few questions for you, and it happens that today in front of His Majesty, I can ask them more clearly." ”
"Smack!"
Suddenly, there was a crisp sound, and I saw that the teacup in the emperor's hand had turned into powder, Huang Guozhong and the crown prince were suddenly frightened, and involuntarily took a few steps back.
The Emperor clapped his hands lightly, and then began to slowly clean up the scraps from his hands, and said, "Today's business is done today, and it is well said." Let's get started, I'm listening. ”
