The emperor was guarding Ruyi in the Ruyi room, and the queen persuaded him several times: "Your Majesty, go back and sleep peacefully." ”

The emperor was unmoved, and said, "If the queen is tired, go back to Kunning Palace by herself." ”

The queen saw that the emperor was tough, so she had to retire.

When the queen left, the emperor held Ruyi's hand and said affectionately: "Ruyi, do you know my affection for you?" I've had a crush on you for a long time. I thought that Butterfly Luck was providential, and tonight could promote my mandarin dream, who would have expected such a thing. Ruyi, I believe that you are innocent, there must be something else hidden in this matter, Ruyi, when you wake up, you will tell me the truth, and I will definitely make the decision for you......"

The emperor muttered to himself, stretched out his hand and gently stroked Ruyi's cheek, this thirteen-year-old girl's skin was blown and broken, white and red, how tempting!

It's a pity that it was injured.

The emperor's hand caressed the gauze tied to Ruyi's forehead, and there was a slight blood stain oozing from the gauze, as if stepping on the snow to find plums, and the emperor felt distressed for a while.

"You stupid woman! Wouldn't it be nice to tell me any grievances? How can you do such an extreme thing? If you have three long and two short, how about being called me? You must know that if you break your wishes, it hurts my heart......"

The emperor confessed, and the voice of the eunuch came from outside: "Your Majesty, the four princes want to plead to the emperor!" ”

The emperor said in disgust: "What is the matter, let him wait until he wakes up tomorrow." ”

The eunuch said: "But the four princes are still kneeling in the imperial study, saying that they will ask the emperor for guilt tonight!" ”

When the emperor heard the word "please sin", his heart trembled.

This Xiu'er probably wants to tell him that today's events have nothing to do with Ruyi.

Hopefully he'll hear that answer.

The emperor got up and covered the quilt for Ruyi, and said, "I'll listen to what Xiu'er has to say, and then I'll accompany you." ”

The emperor left the Ruyi room and returned to the imperial study with the eunuch.

In the imperial study, Ji Yunxiu knelt straight and straight, and when she saw the emperor walking in, she hurriedly kowtowed: "Father!" ”

The emperor ignored him, strode to the back of the bookcase and sat down, waved his hand to the eunuch, and said, "Go down!" ”

The eunuchs hurriedly retreated and closed the door of the imperial study.

Ji Yunxiu looked up at the emperor, and the emperor could no longer see the shadow of his former loving father on his face, but a dignified and majestic king, even with a hint of hostility, although it was close at hand, it had a sense of being far away in the sky.

The emperor said: "What does Xiu'er want to say with me?" ”

Although the emperor still called him "Xiu'er", Ji Yunxiu obviously felt that there was no longer the intimacy of the past, and he was very mixed in his heart.

"Erchen...... The son wanted to talk to his father about today's events. ”

"Okay, I'm going to ask you about today!"

The emperor looked at Ji Yunxiu, his eyes emitted a cold cold light, and it cut straight into Ji Yunxiu's heart like a sharp sword.

"Today's events, is Ruyi innocent?" The Emperor asked bluntly.

Ji Yunxiu was stunned, although the emperor threw out a question, but the answer seemed to be hidden in every word of this sentence.

The answer that the emperor wanted coincided with the best of both worlds given by Hua Wanwan, and at least half of it was the same, that is, to ensure that everything was right.

Ji Yunxiu looked at the emperor tremblingly, and felt sad in her heart, how could his father fall in love with the woman he liked?

He likes Ruyi, that is, the son fights with the father, the minister fights with the king, how can he have a chance of winning?

Now he doesn't want that chance at all, he is afraid that he will not be able to protect himself.

To protect himself, but also to keep his wishes, Hua Wanwan said that he is a man, he must be responsible, and he must take on something for the woman who gave up his life for him.

In the eyes of the emperor, as long as he takes responsibility for her, he doesn't want him to protect himself, and Hua Wanwan wants him to protect himself while letting him take it.

At this moment, Ji Yunxiu thanked Hua Wanwan in her heart.

Ji Yunxiu said: "Today's matter, Ruyi is indeed wronged, and it is burdened by his sons......"

When Ji Yunxiu said this, the emperor's tense heartstrings suddenly relaxed, and he smiled with relief: "Xiu'er, you, you, how can you ......?"

"Erchen is unintentional!"

Before the emperor was about to say the punishment decision, Ji Yunxiu hurriedly defended herself, according to Hua Wanwan's instructions: "The son is unintentional, the son is an unintentional mistake, the son is by mistake into the clean room, the son does not know that Ruyi is in the clean room, so father, please forgive your father!" ”

Deliberately saying that it is unintentional, and saying that trespassing is a mistake, this is the best of both worlds.

The emperor frowned and looked at Ji Yunxiu in disbelief: "How could Xiu'er break into a place like a clean room?" ”

The emperor naturally didn't believe it, but Ji Yunxiu couldn't help the emperor not believe it, he said: "Not only the father is unbelievable, but the son himself is also unbelievable, the son is like a headless fly who accidentally broke into the clean room, the son doesn't know that Ruyi is in the clean room, the son doesn't know that today is the day of the father and the wishful joy, the son is indeed an unintentional mistake, father, you know about the son, the son is by no means such a frivolous person, father, you have hurt the son for many years, you know the son of the son!" ”

The emperor looked at Ji Yunxiu's pitiful appearance, and remembered that Ji Yunxiu was indeed his most trusted and favorite prince over the years, and he was his good helper in governing the country, and he really didn't look like a prodigal and frivolous person, so he couldn't help but feel compassion.

"Today's incident, so you and Ruyi are innocent?"

"Father, sons, and Ruyi are all innocent, it is the blessing of the father, the luck of the father! If the queen mother is here, it is inconvenient for the sons to say these words, but there are only the father and son here, and the sons and sons are relieved to boldly plead with their fathers. Father, think about it, Ruyi is immediately the person on the side of the father, and Erchen is the prince, if there is a bad scandal between Erchen and Ruyi, who will hurt the most? Is it the father? It is not a pity to die as you wish, or to die as your son, but what about you, father? It is inevitable that people will be laughed at behind his back, and his father's reputation will be damaged, but fortunately, no more people know about the clean house now, if his father makes a decision tonight, starting tomorrow, his father's reputation will not have any impact! ”

Ji Yunxiu made a lot of statements, and despaired in his heart while talking, yes, he had already given up Ruyi, for the position of the prince, for the sake of power, he gave up his beloved woman, and pushed the woman to his father with his own hands.

Ji Yunxiu could almost hear the sound of her heart dripping blood.

And the emperor looked at Ji Yunxiu, and felt that his words were very reasonable.

"Xiu'er, it's too late, you go back to the Pingwang Mansion to rest first, my father has his own judgment on this matter."

Ji Yunxiu knelt for a long time, and when he got up from the ground, his knees hurt hotly and his body swayed, so he bowed to the emperor and withdrew.

The next day, when Ruyi woke up, the palace was calm and unwavering, and if she hadn't looked in the mirror and found the wound on her forehead, she almost thought that last night's incident was just a nightmare, a nightmare that belonged to her alone.

Ruyi didn't know that on the night she was unconscious, the emperor had secretly ordered the execution of all the palace people who were bathing in the clean room, and Ji Yunxiu's trespass into the clean room was wiped clean. (To be continued.) )
