176.Xia Ji's Troubled Times (16)

"My mother asked for that...... I'm embarrassed for you!" His mother's request interfered with his friend's future, and Xia Nan often felt guilty when facing the sheep's tongue. But he always felt that his mother had some reason why he couldn't say that.

Although I don't know the reason, I also think that Mrs. Xia's words have deep meaning. Maybe one day when I look back, Madame is actually helping me!" said the sheep's tongue with a hearty smile.

Xia Nan saw that he was so open-minded, and he had no resentment towards his mother, and his heart was warm. He took a jade pendant from his waist and handed it to the sheep tongue with both hands.

"This Liuyun Baifu jade pendant was brought to me by my father when I was a child. It has been with me for more than ten years. Now I give it to you, no matter what you do in the future, as long as someone comes to me with this jade pendant, I will do what I ask for, and I will never refuse. ”

The sheep tongue took this jade pendant, only to see that it was white and luster, the color was transparent, and it was carved with high-quality mutton fat white jade. Words and thoughts are gentlemen, and they are as warm as jade. Xia Nan's promise is not insignificant.

The sheep tongue solemnly hung this Liuyun Baifu jade pendant on his body, and at the same time took out a jade bi with a turquoise hanging color, stretched out his hands and respectfully handed it to Xia Nan.

"This is a jade bi in the hands of each of the descendants of our sheep tongue family, and it also has our words on it. Now for Childe. If you ask me for help with it one day, I will do my best. ”

Xia Nan took a closer look, and sure enough, he found two particularly small characters engraved on the inside of this jade bi - Shu Xiang.

Carefully placed in his inner pocket, Xia Nan arched his hand to the sheep's tongue and said, "Have a safe journey!" The forest is always open for you. ”

"Thank you, I'll definitely be back again. After saying that, he stepped on the horse's back and beat the horse away.

In the distance, more than a dozen centaurs were waiting for him.

"Uncle Xiang left?" Xia Ji waited for Xia Nan in front of Sima Mansion for a long time, and finally saw him slowly returning.

"Hmm!" Xia Nan nodded in response, "Mother, I have something to ask you. ”

"Let's go, go home and talk slowly. Natsuhime brought Natsuki to the Hall of Pleasure.

"What's the matter?" said Natsuhime, who took off her cherry pink cloak with dark patterns embroidered with blue silk, and then sat down on the sandalwood couch and whispered.

"Mother, I want to ask you, why don't you let Shu Xiang serve the Jin Kingdom? Is it because you want to bring him back?"

"Yes and no. What you just said is one reason, but the main reason is for his good. Natsuhime replied slowly.

"Good for him?" Xia Nan wondered.

"Well, if you're more specific, don't ask. It is inconvenient for the mother to say. In short, you just remember that your mother is for his good. ”

"Hmm!" Xia Nan secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He was not mistaken, though it was hard to say why.

"By the way, what do you think of the recent incident between Prince Wu and Yi Xing's father?" Xia Ji asked Xia Nandao intentionally.

She is facing many things now, and she is deliberately guiding Xia Nan to think. Xia Nan is already a serious Chen Guosima, and he must have his own judgment on things. After all, she is a woman, and it is impossible to be by his side all the time.

"What you are talking about is that the crown prince threatened to clear the king's side and kill Yixing's father, who hid in the palace for several months and did not dare to come out. In the end, the ceremonial father asked the king's will to remove the prince from the position of prince. Yixing's father announced the decree in front of the palace gate, and was shot in the left eye by the prince and cut off his left arm. After that, the king wanted to depose the prince as a concubine, but the prince refused to accept the decree. The two of them have lost both, and they are still facing each other?"

Natsuhime nodded.

The child felt that there was no direct conflict between the two of them. There were some contradictions between the king and the crown prince, that is, Gongzi Wu, but they broke out between these two people, and they still looked like they were dying. Obviously, there must be another reason for this. ”

Xia Ji bowed slightly, and continued to ask, "Then who do you think this person will be?"

Judging from the development of this matter, between the two of them, it was Prince Wu who took the lead in attacking. The slogan played by the prince Wu to attack Yi Xing's father was the Qing Jun's side, and it was obvious that the reason for the king's dissatisfaction with him in the past two years was attributed to Yi Xing's father. In other words, this person actually wanted to kill Yixing's father. He may have found someone to slander the prince and bewitch him.

As for why he chose the crown prince? Probably the prince is also the target of his weakening! I don't know who this person is. ”

Xia Nan analyzed step by step.

"I don't know who that person is, and he actually provoked the prince's brainless target against me!" shouted Yixing's father angrily and muttering to himself.

He told Chen Linggong that Taiziwu wanted to kill his father, and he persuaded him not to, but as a result, he triggered Taiziwu's murderous opportunity, and he must kill him first. Chen Linggong let him live in an abandoned courtyard in the palace - Zhixing Palace to save his life.

But Chen Linggong did not send people to encircle and suppress Taiziwu as he wished, but watched them fight. This is another point that Yixing's father can't figure out. When did Chen Linggong have a brain?

Now Yixing's father squinted, lost an arm, lost too much blood, and was lying on the bed in the inner hall of the Zhixing Palace, allowing a imperial doctor to bandage his wounds.

"What are you talking about, how are your injuries?" asked Xiao Su when he came to the temple at some point. She brought a group of black-armored guards with her, and they all stood in the doorway. Father Yi Xing was lying on the bed, not noticing.

"It's not good! Don't come here, be careful to scare you. "Father Yixing is afraid that Xiao Su will see him now and disgusted him, and he will not help him speak in front of Chen Linggong in the future.

He hid in the palace, but his clan and family were outside, and he must have been almost cleaned up by the prince. He also wants to use Chen Linggong's power to reorganize the family!

However, Xiao Su didn't care so much, and still stepped forward and asked the imperial doctor, "How serious is this injury?"

Yixing's father thought that Xiao Su was caring about himself, and he was complacent.

"Back to Niangniang, Master Yi has lost too much blood and can't move anymore. Otherwise, if the wound is pulled, it is easy to lose too much blood and die. The Imperial Physician replied honestly.

"Oh, I see, you go down!" said Xiao Su.

"Niangniang, I haven't finished bandaging this yet, and I haven't finished taking ......the medicine yet," the imperial doctor hesitated.

I continued. Leave the medicine box behind, I'm here!" Xiao Su said impatiently.

"Yes!" the Imperial Doctor had to silently retire. Before leaving, he returned and advised: "This medicine is more painful, but the effect is better......

"Talky!" Xiao Su shouted angrily, and the imperial doctor trembled, didn't dare to speak again, and quickly retreated.

"Come here, tie Master Yi to the bed, and prevent him from moving around and pulling the wound later. Xiao Su called out to a few people and fixed the father of Yi Xing on the bed with a cloth. And then drove all the people down.

"No matter what happens for a while, no one is allowed to come in unless I call you!" Xiao Su finally gave an order.

Yixing's father thought that Xiao Xu was going to give him medicine in person, let them do it, and felt that life was so happy.

"You bear with it!" Xiao Su said, looking at Yi Xing's father's wounds.

"Don't worry, even if it hurts, I won't shout. Father Yi encouraged her with a smile. Thinking that he could let the king's concubine bandage his wounds, Yixing's father felt that he was really the number one person!

Xiao Su showed a weird smile and pulled his subordinates hard.

"Ahh

"Ahh

"You...... Why?" no matter how stupid Father Yi Xing was, he knew that he was going to die. It's just that he is not reconciled, and he must ask to understand.

"Because your savior threatens me and my children. My children are the ones who will inherit the world of Chen Guo, and I will become the most noble woman of Chen Guo. There must be no stain on my son's bloodline. And your savings will always give people an opportunity to take advantage of them and use them to hit my children. Only when you die, can you be a hundred. ”

Xiao Fu explained expressionlessly.

"But didn't you say that I was the real father of this child?" Father Yi Xing glared at Xiao Su fiercely, his eyes split.

"How do I know which of you is the true father of the child? When you die, won't there be only one father of the child? He will always be the son of the king. ”

"So in the beginning, you were lying to me, right? You tricked me into helping you get rid of Xiao Liu'er, and then you managed to kill me. No one will have the ability to threaten you anymore. You did the Taizi Wu incident, right?"

"Yes, I was worried that you would see it! But you really trust me! I'm so ashamed!" Xiao Su said with a grin, not at all ashamed.

"The king doesn't seem to trust me so much, and he uses and guards against me, and it's also your fault?"

"Yes. If not, how can I drive you to a dead end!" Xiao Su stood beside Yi Xing's father, stroked his cheek with his hand, and said regretfully: "It's a pity!

"You slut!" Father Yixing's intact right hand somehow broke free. He suddenly exerted his strength, tugged at Xiao Su's dress tightly, and slammed her against the edges and corners of the bed.

Xiao Su will give birth in more than a month. At this time, I felt a pain in my stomach and cried out in pain. But because of what she had just commanded, no one came in to investigate.

I don't know how long it took, but Xiao Su felt that it was a long time. Father Yi Xing finally stopped moving. She dragged her aching stomach to the door.

"After the order, the prince bought the palace people to kill Master Yi, and I was accidentally affected. All the eunuchs and maids in the palace were not in a good position and were all executed. Xiao Su also left this sentence clearly before being carried away, which ruined the vitality of everyone here.

"Yes!" replied the group of black-armored guards led by Xiao Su when he came.

They were the guards she had borrowed after giving her all the treasures given to her by Chen Linggong.

Although Xiao Su was born prematurely, she still gave birth to a boy. It's just that due to the premature birth for too long, the child is very weak and needs to be cared for with special care.

But that's not a problem. There were people in the palace who took care of the children. Xiao Su was injured and lay on the bed to concentrate on recuperating her body.

Chen Linggong held his youngest son while counting all the crimes of the prince in the court, from disobeying himself to kidnapping other countries to cause a national diplomatic crisis, and then to disregarding his own grounding will and his father to fight in vain, and finally even entered the palace to assassinate his youngest son from being born.

Due to the previous disobedience to the decree of the crown prince, Chen Linggong directly sent someone to escort the prince to listen to the decree and put him in prison. According to Chen Linggong's idea, lock him up for a period of time, and then release him when he stops, and give him a small title. When the time comes, he will still be grateful to himself.

In fact, Chen Linggong didn't suddenly start hating Gongziwu. He only suddenly realized that Childe had grown up early in the afternoon. If he openly befriended his courtiers and recruited talents, wouldn't that be a challenge to his own rights? This is a problem that all kings and princes will have. It depends on how the parties solve it.

Xiaoxu's discord is not the reason why Chen Linggong hates Prince Wu. It just met his needs. But this, Prince Wu did not know. He blamed Yixing's father before, and now he blames Xiao Xu for giving birth to a son for Chen Linggong who can replace him.

Although Gongziwu was in prison, the old department of the Prince's Mansion still found Zhulin and asked them to get rid of Chen Linggong's youngest son for Gongziwu.
