Shen Zhongkun said his beloved wife as his life, without saying a word, and slandering his junior sister was particularly serious, he hoped that these words could not only enter Xiao Xiao's ears, but also enter Xiao Xiao's heart, so that Xiao Xiao knew how ruthlessly he favored the unreasonable Chu Xun'er, and how much he didn't care about his former friendship.

Xiao Xiao had lost confidence in ruthlessness, and it was also expected that he would stand there without saying a word, she just sneered and did not defend herself.

The emperor listened to the words of the two parties, and his face suddenly turned angry.

Since the incident of King Zhongyi, the emperor's trust in the crown prince can be said to be incomparable, and at the same time, he has two points of guard against the ruthlessness of being found by King Zhongyi.

Although the emperor looks mediocre, he is actually shrewd in his heart, and he can't figure out how the loyal and righteous king, since he has already had the heart of rebellion, how can he find his own son before the rebellion and add one more enemy to himself. But the blood test confirmed that Ruthless was indeed his son, and there was no abnormality in being ruthless after the defeat of King Zhongyi, not to mention that with the prince's ability, if Ruthless really joined forces with King Zhongyi, the prince would have exposed him a long time ago, how could he tolerate King Yonghuai's side Fujin shouting at himself here.

On the one hand, the emperor doubted the intention of King Zhongyi to help him find ruthlessness, and on the other hand, he believed that ruthlessness was indeed his own flesh and blood, and had nothing to do with the rebellion. With such complex emotions, he is no longer as affectionate as before.

Now there is a dispute between the two parties, on the one hand, the prince he trusts, and on the other hand, the king of Yonghuai, who he is slightly suspicious of, of course he wants to protect the prince, but the stakes are very high, if the prince is not punished, I am afraid that he will not be able to convince the public.

Thinking of this, the emperor said to Shen Zhongkun with a gloomy face, "Since this incident happened in the prince's mansion, the prince and the princess are inseparable, and I must punish you to set the record straight, but I don't believe that my children will kill each other, so I ordered the prince to find out the truth within three days, and give me an explanation to King Yonghuai and his side Fujin, if the prince can't find out the real culprit by then, I will punish him severely." Now punish the crown prince and the crown princess to kneel outside the heart palace for two hours. Let's go home in two hours. ”

This matter is very important, and mutilating the royal heir is a major crime of killing the head, but the emperor simply let the prince and the princess kneel for two hours, as for the truth three days later, just like Chu Xun'er said, any cook and subordinate in the prince's mansion can be the truth, as long as the prince coerces and lures, they will say that they are derelict in their duties, and the emperor will not investigate deeply.

So the emperor's partiality is too obvious, but as soon as the emperor's golden mouth is opened, he will not allow others to disagree, even if Chu Xun'er is extremely aggrieved, he can only give up, not to mention that this is enough, this is what Chu Xun'er wants.

Shen Zhongkun and Xiao Xiao both knelt outside the Heart Cultivation Palace, it was a spring day, the sun was shining in the morning, Xiao Xiao and Shen Zhongkun were not mortals, plus their own martial arts skills, not to mention kneeling for two hours, even kneeling for two days and two nights, it was not difficult for them.

Xiao Xiao looked at Shen Zhongkun and said with a little uneasiness, "I have wronged you by being punished with me." ”

Shen Zhongkun looked at Xiao Xiao and shook his head, "I feel very happy." ”

"Happiness?" Xiao Xiao was puzzled.

Shen Zhongkun nodded, "We are husband and wife, that is, we should share weal and woe, not only to enjoy together, but also to suffer together." I was born as a prince, although such an identity is noble, but it is hard to guarantee that it will bring me some unexpected disasters, and there will be many times when I need you to accompany me in the future. I hope we can always get along like this. ”

Xiao Xiao smiled, this smile was a laugh from the heart, and Shen Zhongkun could distinguish it. In the past, when she smiled at herself, she was always perfunctory, and she didn't smile at her, but this time, there was brilliance from Xiao Xiao's eyes, and this brilliance was telling Shen Zhongkun, yes, I am willing to accompany you through thick and thin.

The two knelt for an hour or so, when suddenly the sky changed drastically, the clouds were thick, the wind was blowing, and there was about to be a heavy rain. Shen Zhongkun looked at the dark clouds in the sky, and secretly rejoiced in his heart, God really helped me, just thinking about kneeling for a few hours, but he didn't expect that there would be a heavy rain to add icing on the cake for himself.

Chu Xun'er took a sedan chair from Donghua Hall to the door of the Heart Cultivation Palace, and saw that the two were still kneeling, and sneered, "It's going to rain, does the princess need an umbrella?" If necessary, I can lend this one to the crown princess. As he spoke, the eunuch handed over an umbrella, the red umbrella seemed to be soaked in blood, and Chu Xun'er's provocative expression jumped on his face.

Xiao Xiao glanced at Chu Xun'er, then stopped looking at her, and looked directly at the Heart Cultivation Palace, "Thank you Princess Yonghuai, my body is not so weak, and the wind Lang can still withstand this." ”

Chu Xun'er glanced at the eunuch, and the eunuch took the umbrella back, she looked at Xiao Xiao and said, "I know that the crown princess is reluctant to use the umbrella, but I am afraid that there are those who don't know that there are many things to do, and come to send an umbrella to the crown princess, I will go in and ask my father for instructions, and no one is allowed to send an umbrella to the crown princess." ”

After a while, the emperor's edict came from the Palace of Nourishing Hearts, no one was allowed to approach the crown prince and princess, and no one was allowed to hold an umbrella for the crown princess.

Xiao Xiao looked at Shen Zhongkun and smiled bitterly, "This Chu Xun'er is also difficult enough, I thought she was a lady, but I didn't expect that she could be calculated like this." ”

Shen Zhongkun smiled, "You're wrong, it's everyone's ladies who can calculate." ”

When it was overcast, there was a cup of tea, and it began to rain, at first a drizzle like beads, and gradually turned into a downpour, and then the raindrops hit the body like a small whip.

Although the eunuchs and palace maids couldn't bear it, the emperor ordered that no one was allowed to approach the crown princess, and they didn't dare to come forward to send an umbrella.

Xiao Xiao and Shen Zhongkun knelt in the rain like that, the rain ruffled their hair, washing Xiao Xiao's extremely light outfit, but revealing a pitiful beauty.

Xiao Xiao's Kwai Shui has always been not very accurate, and this month it was six or seven days late, Xiao Xiao didn't care, and Kwai Shui didn't come until today. Xiao Xiao knelt in the rain for about half an hour and suddenly felt a faint pain in her lower abdomen, Xiao Xiao didn't take it to heart, she just thought that she might be about to come to Kwai Shui, and all the pain in her lower abdomen would fall.

After a while, this labor pain not only did not weaken, but intensified more and more, Xiao Xiao covered her stomach and finally couldn't help moaning, Shen Zhongkun heard Xiao Xiao moaning on the side, and immediately helped Xiao Xiao and asked with concern, "What's wrong with you?" ”

"I ...... My stomach hurts! ”

I saw that Shen Zhongkun's face was suddenly extremely solemn, his face was protruding, his voice was choked, and he held Xiao Xiao tightly with both hands, "Xiao Xiao,...... Blood ......"
