Chapter 23: Meeting an Old Flame

It didn't take long for Cheng Shu to run back in disgrace, kneeling on the ground with some trepidation: "Go back to Your Majesty, go back to the Sixth Prince, stop worrying about the prince······ It's gone. ”

"Gone?!" Pu Yangyu's first reaction was that something might have happened to Xing Ruoyou, so he was ready to chase him out without saying a word.

Pu Yangxuan over there pretended to be surprised: "Sixth brother, this person happened to appear before the Ten Thousand Flowers Festival to meet you, and happened to see through the assassin's such a mysterious assassination plan, he wouldn't be in the same group as the assassin, right?" ”

"Stop worrying is not such a person!" Pu Yangyu was very annoyed by Pu Yangxuan's slander, and wanted to stop worrying, but the emperor who was sitting on it said:

"Yu'er, Xuan'er is not unreasonable, this person's origin is unknown, although it cannot be concluded that it is related to the assassination, but it cannot be blindly credulous."

Pu Yangyu had to bow his head: "The child must follow his father's teachings." ”

It's not that he doesn't want to resist, but he knows that the more he argues at this time, the more conducive it will be for Puyang Xuan to lead the spearhead to him or stop worrying, so he has to take the lead in changing the topic: "Father is right, the top priority is to find out who the assassin is instigating, block the news to the outside world, and let the Wanhua Festival continue." ”

"If this is a big event, we should let the Imperial Forest Army escort my father and queen mother back to the palace and protect all the adults and their families to return to the palace safely, how can we continue the Ten Thousand Flowers Festival," Pu Yang Xuan disagreed with Pu Yang Yu's suggestion, "If you act as the Sixth Emperor Brother said, and there are assassins attacking, what should I do?" ”

"I'm afraid they won't come again!" Puyang Yu crossed Puyang Xuan and bowed to the emperor, "Father, if you return to the palace at this time, although you can avoid a possible crisis, it will make the behind-the-scenes commanders think that our Great Wei Kingdom is greedy for life and afraid of death, and it will only continue to invade in the future." ”

Pu Yangxuan also took a step forward: "Father, the sons and daughters think that the sixth emperor brother is doing this out of a moment of righteousness, and he can't do it!" ”

As soon as he exited, some civil and military officials on the side immediately stepped forward to support him.

But Pu Yangyu is not alone, and many ministers have also stood up to support his opinion.

For a time, the original battle of words between the two brothers evolved into a war of words between civil and military officials.

After two hours of heated debate, the emperor made a compromise choice - the final location of the Wanhua Festival was set in the imperial palace, and the time was tomorrow.

In this way, the emperor and empress and others returned to the palace safely under the escort of the Imperial Forest Army, and the civil and military officials returned to their respective mansions.

The inn that Xing Ruoyou had chartered before was about to change into women's clothes, and a familiar petite figure crashed in through the door, and when he saw her, he was stupid for a while, and then flew towards her, hugging her thighs and starting to cry.

"Laugh······ Xiaoxiao, can you let me go first? Xing Ruoyou was shaken so that his legs were sore, and he couldn't help it.

Xiaoxiao let go of her hand embarrassedly, sobbing intermittently: "Miss, when the slave saw that you were pulled away by that villain, she couldn't look for you everywhere, and she didn't dare to go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Today I heard that I don't know why the Ten Thousand Flowers Festival will continue to be held in the palace tomorrow, but I didn't see you, I guess you went back to the inn first, and then immediately ran back, I didn't expect it······ I didn't expect you to really come back, scared the slave to death, woo woo ······"

"Okay, okay, I'm not coming back, good, don't cry." Xing Ruoyou patted Xiaoxiao's back funny, a certain light suddenly flashed in his head, and he turned his head to look at Xiaoxiao, "You just said that the Ten Thousand Flowers Festival will be held in the palace tomorrow?" Aren't all the people returning home now? ”

"Yes, Miss, let's go home quickly." When Xiaoxiao came, he was worried that if he didn't find Xing Ruoyou, he didn't know how to explain when he returned home, but fortunately, God opened his eyes and his master came back intact.

Who knew that Xing Ruoyou said: "No, you can't go back now, you hurry up and change your clothes first, let's go to the Donglai Inn." ”

Donglai Inn?!

I can't laugh anymore, that's where my master and His Royal Highness King Yan used to make appointments!

The two changed into a new set of clothes and came to the Donglai Inn with a gauze hat, Xing Ruoyou really saw one of Puyang Xuan's personal guards, and entered the secret room under his leadership, while Xiaoxiao stayed outside.

As soon as he entered the door, Pu Yangxuan greeted him anxiously, holding his soft and boneless hands, and smiling with his eyebrows: "Ruoyou, I knew that you would definitely come today." It's brilliant that you can think of having a strange woman wear the dress I gave you to deliver a message to my personal guard. ”

The "strange woman" in his mouth is the two who were hypnotized by Xing Ruoyou two days ago.

Xing Ruoyou gently withdrew his hands without a trace, and turned his face away: "His Royal Highness King Yan, please respect yourself, Ruoyou has a marriage contract now." ”

Obviously it was a rhetoric that put aside the relationship, but it sounded like a strong refusal, Pu Yangxuan's eyes were full of pity, but he couldn't bear to resent her wishes, so he just looked at her for a moment, with sentimentality: "Ruoyou, you have always known the sincerity of this king, let you marry ······ It's really helpless. This king promises you that he will live up to you in the future! ”

Xing Ruoyou tried hard to control himself not to laugh, making his expression more and more sad: "I'm afraid that at that time, Ruoyou's body of a broken flower and a willow will not be able to enter the eyes of His Royal Highness King Yan at all." ”

"This king won't care! If you are good, you have to believe in this king! Pu Yangxuan was a little anxious, turned her face over and looked at him, word by word, "When I reign in the world, there will be a place for you in the harem!" ”

Puyang Xuan's oath was enough to make countless women in the Great Wei Kingdom willing to be convinced and die for it, but the punishment only felt disgusting.

Even if she can be sure that Pu Yangxuan has true feelings for the original owner, but the other party let her sacrifice for the world, it is enough to see that the original owner is just one of the chess pieces he uses to win the world, at most it can be regarded as a chess piece that he likes very much.

But there are times when the chess pieces are counter-used, Xing Ruoyou has tears in his eyes but does not cry, stares at Pu Yangxuan for a moment, and suddenly wants to kneel, but he is pulled up by one hand, with thin anger: "What are you doing?!" ”

"Your Royal Highness, you and I both know that if you go here, there will be more luck and less luck, and there will be strange poison in the body by the queen's mother, and you will be worried about your life at any time." As he spoke, Xing Ruoyou choked up.

Pu Yangxuan was distressed: "Don't worry, this king will definitely urge the queen mother's people to give you the antidote in time every month, and will never let you have poisonous hair." ”

Punishment Ruoyou did not follow: "But if you are in the palace of His Royal Highness King Xuan, it is quite inconvenient to enter and exit, in case you can't get the antidote to the strange poison on time in any month, wouldn't it······ Since then, he has been separated from His Highness forever. ”

Hearing this, Pu Yangxuan's expression also became solemn, and after a while of silence, he seemed to have made a lot of determination, and then said: "Don't worry, this king will find a way to let the queen mother give you some more antidotes in case you need them." The queen mother is not an unreasonable person, and she will definitely agree. ”

Xing Ruoyou nodded softly, smug flashed in her eyes, she was finally able to get an extra antidote to alleviate toxicity, and she was one step closer to developing an antidote······
