Chapter 898: Infatuation and Desperation
Hearing this, even Chunxiang couldn't help but be curious, what was it that made Gu Xunfang so smug?
Yun Shu slowly opened the gift box, only to see a pile of black iron balls lying in the red mercerized silk cloth, and the eyes of the two women flashed, no wonder it was so heavy! It's just that...... What are they?
"Hehe, I know you don't understand the magic of this thing!"
Gu Xunfang stretched out his hand and took out one of the small iron balls, searched in the yard, and then selected a potted plant and gently threw it forward. "Words, feelings, first, http://www.Klxsw.com

I only heard a bang, and the iron ball hit the potted plant accurately, and it actually spewed out a flame, and then it burned quickly, which frightened Chunxiang and exclaimed, "Someone!" Fire suppression! Put out the fire! β
"Haha, how's it going, awesome? Don't look at this phosphorus ball is small, as long as it is not thrown into the water, anything can burn! β
The movement immediately attracted the nearby family, and it took several basins of water to extinguish the fire. The fragrance of spring came to Gu Xunfang's side, "Gu Gongzi's joke is a bit too much!" The congratulatory gifts given by others are calligraphy and paintings, but you are sending such a dangerous thing, are you planning to burn down the General's Mansion?! β
"Tsk, you girl, why are you so short-sighted! Don't you think this phosphorus ball is more lethal than the hidden weapon I made for you before? Just bring a few and it will save your life when it counts! Gu Xunfang was very dissatisfied, you must know that he was very satisfied with his creativity, if this thing can be used on the battlefield, it will be invincible, but unfortunately, this fire is not long-sighted, and it can be burned on his own people!
Yun Shu was playing with the small black ball with great interest, and Chunxiang came over nervously, "Miss, be careful, what if you get hurt?" β
She glared at the culprit at the moment, "If you accidentally fall to the ground, won't you even burn yourself?!" β
Gu Xunfang was slightly stunned and stammered, "Eh, then, then you won't be careful?!" β
ββ¦β¦β
"Gu Gongzi is right, as long as it is handled carefully and used reasonably, it can really save our lives at a critical moment." Yun Shu smiled slightly, and as soon as she spoke, Chunxiang quieted down.
Gu Xunfang immediately glanced at Chunxiang proudly, "Now, even if Emperor Xiao really has the ability to come to the door, you can stuff this phosphorus ball into his mouth and burn him clean!" β
Chunxiang's eyes widened instantly, and she looked like she wanted to say something, and Yun Shu really cast a suspicious look, "Emperor Xiao? β
"Why, don't you know? Emperor Xiao's soldiers and horses have gathered outside the Lotus Kingdom and are coming to you...... Oh, you girl, you hurt me! Gu Xunfang was suddenly pulled to the back by Chunxiang, and opened her mouth to scold in pain. Yun Shu had already taken a step forward, "Chunxiang, don't be rude." β
ββ¦β¦ Miss ......" Chunxiang reluctantly let go of her hand, she forgot to tell Gu Xunfang not to tell Yunshu the news.
"What's going on? Today, there is a rumor on the street again, saying that Emperor Xiao came to find his concubine and wanted to return the lotus country to its original owner. Hmph, what a concubine, do his big dream of spring and autumn! Gu Xunfang was upset for Yun Shu, and there was only his voice left in the courtyard, Yun Shu took a deep look at Chunxiang, and the maid frowned and looked away a little weakly.
Seeing their appearance, Gu Xunfang opened her mouth in embarrassment, "What, you really don't know?" Now the people on the street are speculating who is Emperor Xiao's concubine and why she came to the Lotus Kingdom, and some even say...... Could it be a spy from Yi Guo. β
Inside the quiet hall, the atmosphere is a little quirky.
Chunxiang lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Yun Shu's expression at the moment, her young lady rarely had a time of annoyance, but once she got angry, it was like a different person, from her eyes to her aura, with indifference and deterrence, the momentum was enough to make her legs weak.
And Chunxiang suddenly remembered the unfavored concubine who was in the Hou Mansion in the past, who had been by her side all these years, and there had been earth-shaking changes in her, and while she loved her, she was actually afraid from the bottom of her heart.
"Tell me, what's going on?"
After a long time, Yun Shu finally opened her mouth.
Haruka took a deep breath, and she couldn't hide it anymore. "Miss...... This was a few days ago, Emperor Xiao's soldiers and horses were stationed outside the Lotus Kingdom, and he also sent a letter to His Majesty, demanding that the Lotus Kingdom return the lost property of the Yi Kingdom. β
"Lost property?" The corners of Yun Shu's mouth hooked slightly, Xiao Yichen? Isn't he dead yet, he almost forgot about this person. Yi Guo's mess didn't let him learn to be obedient, it seems that she was forced to let him have nothing!
Chunxiang pursed her lips slightly, "The wedding date between Miss and His Royal Highness is approaching, and His Royal Highness doesn't want this matter to affect Miss's mood, and the slave believes that His Royal Highness and His Majesty will handle this matter properly, so I didn't tell Miss." β
Yun Shu stopped talking, and Chunxiang stiffened and continued to bury her head, waiting for the other party's blame.
And Gu Xunfang, who had been sitting next to him, suddenly stood up, "Oops, I suddenly thought that there is something important to do, Ling'er, let's go back!" β
Chunxiang immediately cast a look of disdain, it was really unrighteous, if it weren't for him, why would he stand here with such a weak heart! The culprit is going to escape......
After Gu Xunfang left, Chunxiang slowly stepped forward, "Miss, don't act rashly, Your Highness said that he would solve it." β
However, Yun Shu smiled slightly, "Just one Xiao Huang is not enough to affect my mood." She stood up slowly, Yun Shu would never be angry with other people's kindness, if Emperor Xiao made further moves, Feng Ling would naturally sue her. Xiao Yichen, she wants to see what other means this madman has to force her into a desperate situation.
β¦β¦
At this moment, the comfortable Chen Kingdom seems to be calm, but something has changed.
"Let's go! Come on! β
Outside the noon gate, several death row inmates were slowly walking towards the execution ground, but there were not many onlookers, as if they had become accustomed to the fact that so many people would be beheaded here every day. In the past year of Chenguo, the punishment has become more severe, and the people who keep to themselves will not have an impact, but some people with evil thoughts no longer have the opportunity to mend their ways.
In the palace, two grandmothers came to Nianshu Palace with a group of palace maids, and a bowl of rich bitter medicine was served.
"You guys, what are you going to do?!" The originally gentle and lovely voice was now hoarse with anger.
"What did the girl do, don't you know?"
"I, I...... Daring! I want to see Your Majesty! I want to see Your Majesty! The face that was nine points similar to Yun Shu was extremely frightened at the moment, and the tears had slipped down uncontrollably.
At this time, the bright yellow noble man had already appeared in the dormitory, but his eyes were cold.
"ιxiΓ ! His Majesty saved the concubines ......"
Today's Dongfang Xu is no longer the gentle and elegant prince of the past, he has the determination to kill as an emperor, and more importantly, he is a deterrent that cannot be resisted.
The cold big hand slowly picked up the other party's chin, but the bottom of his eyes was no longer as gentle as before.
"When did I say that you would be allowed to give birth to my heir?"
The woman's pupils shrank instantly, and she bit her pale lower lip weakly. She knew that she was not the only woman who lived in Nianshu Palace, and those people in front of her always disappeared inexplicably, even if they had collected thousands of favors, they couldn't even leave their names in the end. She once indulged in the tenderness of Her Majesty, she felt that she was the love of Her Majesty's heart, but today, seeing a different him, she finally began to wonder if the sweetness of the past was her dream.
Those women can't be favored for a long time, it must be because they don't have any heirs! So starting a few days ago, she secretly poured out the bowl of soup medicine in the morning, and finally, she had flesh and bones in her abdomen!
She didn't know how Her Majesty would react, so she didn't tell anyone about it, but how could she know that there were almost no secrets in this palace.
"But...... There is only the crown prince in the palace...... It's so lonely......" she said, it was Prince Dongfang Nian.
Dongfang Xu's eyes sank, and he shook off this face heavily.
"In my opinion, only the crown prince in the palace is enough!"
What the? The woman was slightly stunned, but the palace maid had already stepped forward, ignoring her struggles and pleading, and forcibly poured the bowl of red flowers into the woman's mouth.
"No, no, no...... Ahem, ours, our children......"
"Shut up! You...... A prince who is not worthy of being born. Dongfang Xu's hand was clenched tightly, his back was only cold, and there was no longer the warmth of the past.
Why is that? Doesn't Majesty love her? let her live in such a luxurious Nianshu Palace, and only spoil her alone, and never even mention the women before here. She thought that her tenderness had touched Her Majesty, but now the unbearable pain in her abdomen, and the unsympathetic eyes of the man, she seemed to be about to wake up from this beautiful dream.
"Your Majesty, the concubine loves you! The concubine wants to serve His Majesty forever, forever ......"
Dongfang Xu turned his head slightly, his eyes were full of disgust and disgust, "Don't use that face to show this kind of expression." β
"Majesty, majesty xiΓ ......" The woman stretched out her hand in disbelief to caress her face, could that rumor be true? She, whose stand-in is she? "No, it's not, it's not like that, His Majesty also loves his concubines, right? Her majesty ...... "She struggled to reach out to the man, hoping that he could hold it as gently as before, but the corners of Dongfang Xu's mouth raised a trace of mockery.
"Send her out of the palace, I don't want to see her again!"
"No, Your Majesty, the concubine knows that she is wrong, the concubine doesn't dare anymore, please let the concubine stay by His Majesty's side, please, please......" She moved forward with difficulty on the ground, but the man had already brushed his sleeves and left, without any pity.
