Chapter Twenty-Six
The crisp sound of bowls and spoons clattering sounded in the somewhat dim room, and the palace maids walking in and out brought bursts of food.
The king of Dongping County sat in front of a few cases, watching the girls on the opposite side feast.
In front of her, there was a slow table of fish and meat, which was almost swept away at this time, but she didn't seem to have eaten enough, and kept eating.
"Do you want more?" King Dongping asked.
Xie Roujia nodded.
"A little more soup is enough." She said.
The king of Dongping County gave a few words to the palace maid and pushed the bowl of tea soup in front of him to her.
"Drink this first." He said.
Xie Roujia didn't hesitate at all, reached out and took a drink, and took a bite of food.
Her face and hands had been washed, and her clothes had changed, except that her face was still pale, and she could no longer see the wolf bèi when she first came in.
"Are you better?" King Dongping asked.
"It's much better, and I have more strength after eating." Xie Roujia said, smiling at him, "Dancing requires a lot of strength. ”
This is to explain to him, or to cover it up.
King Dongping smiled.
"It takes strength to watch a dance." He said, "The waiter said that Fang Ziyuan and Princess Xianrong were awake, and they were also shouting that they were hungry and had eaten several bowls of rice. ”
In other words, there was nothing wrong with the two of them.
The Queen Mother and the Queen were not at ease, so they called countless imperial doctors to come and see, and in the end they all proved that Fang Ziyuan and the princess were unharmed, just a little tired, just take a rest.
Xie Roujia sighed, lowered her head, and ate slowly.
"You're dancing a trick dance, right?" King Dongping asked.
Xie Roujia glanced up at him.
"Your Highness also knows about the dance?" She said.
King Dongping nodded.
Xie Roujia sighed, holding the chopsticks and did not speak.
"But why did you stop the spell?" King Dongping asked again. "At the cost of spending so much of your strength, at the risk of being eaten back?"
Xie Roujia raised her head in surprise.
"Not only do I know He, but I have also seen him with my own eyes." The king of Dongping said, "I have seen people who have fallen for the trick cut off their own flesh and ate it bite by bite until they die. ”
Swallowed up by the anger of the witch, he was robbed of his sanity and turned into a walking corpse, and man can no longer be called a human being.
So why is witchcraft awe-inspiring, this is fear.
So. The people in the palace avoided her like a poisonous scorpion.
Xie Roujia did not speak.
"Is it because you are afraid of the emperor and the queen mother's punishment afterwards?" King Dongping asked.
"I said it beforehand. Watching the witch dance is dangerous, and they want to see it themselves. Xie Roujia said, her little face tightened, "Why do you want to punish me." ”
King Dongping smiled.
"You're not afraid of being punished." He said. "Aren't you angry?"
"I'm angry." Xie Roujia said. "I was brought into the palace by a scheme. Of course I'm angry that so many things happened, and I obviously didn't mess with them. ”
She also knew that she had been calculated.
It's the same as when I heard that the Queen Mother was going to summon her. Knowing that this matter must have been deliberately arranged.
King Dongping smiled.
"Then why did you stop chanting? If you are still angry and not afraid of punishment, why do you risk hurting yourself to do so? He asked.
Xie Roujia put down the dishes and chopsticks in her hand.
"Because I'm a witch." She said.
The little girl's eyes were bright and bright, twinkling in the twilight.
"I'm a witch who stands up to the sky."
"Wu, standing up to the sky and the earth, comforting the people on the left and comforting the people on the right, how can he harm people with the power of the gods."
"Hehe rumors and curses are not used to harm people, but to save people, and use curses to vent their resentment, that is not a witch."
"Your Royal Highness, what you said about the He you saw, the person who performed the He must not be a real witch."
King Dongping looked at her and smiled.
"Okay, let's eat quickly, let's leave the palace after eating, your family should be in a hurry." He said.
"Can I go?" Xie Roujia asked hurriedly.
"I'll help you ask His Majesty the Emperor." King Dongping said, standing up.
The chamberlains standing in the room hurried forward and pulled up the curtain on the other side, revealing another room with a bright yellow and a tall figure.
Emperor!
Xie Roujia stood up in shock.
The Emperor is standing here!
Was she taken to the emperor's palace for dinner?
"Your Majesty, Miss Xie Er has finished eating, can she leave the palace?" The king of Dongping said to the emperor.
Did he really ask that?
Is it okay to ask like this?
Xie Roujia couldn't help but look at the emperor.
The Emperor stepped forward.
"Let's go, if you eat it again, I'll be eaten poor." He said.
Is this, kidding?
Xie Roujia looked at the emperor, a little stunned.
"Kneel down." Dongping County King said.
Xie Roujia hurriedly bowed her head and saluted.
The king of Dongping County glanced at an attendant, and the attendant hurriedly stood up.
"Second Miss, please come here, the slave will send you." He said with a smile.
Xie Roujia followed the attendant and walked out.
The emperor looked at the girl who walked out and shook his sleeves.
"Are you really gone, and you don't say anything?" He said, "Doesn't this kid speak except when he loses his temper?" ”
King Dongping nodded with a smile.
"People with great ability have a bigger temper." He said.
The Emperor glanced at him.
"Why don't you say the second half?" He said, "Don't you say that children have a big temper? Just say that the ability is great? ”
The king of Dongping County hummed.
"Yes, because it seems to be capable now." He said.
The emperor took off his clothes and sat down on a chair.
"Now? I used to have a lot of skills, I can work you to serve her. He said.
Dongping Junwang did not answer the call.
"Your Majesty, you don't have any doubts now, do you? Thank you for your courtesy. He said.
The Emperor hummed.
"This family surnamed Xie can't bear to look at me when they kneel down and lick these days." He said, "I didn't expect to have a temper." In this case, you have to take good care of people with tempers, otherwise these stinky tempers will make trouble, and I will not be able to bear them. ”
He smiled and looked at the cases over there.
The dishes have been cleaned up.
"yes, this temper is really going to make trouble, and I can't keep my baby." Dongping County King said.
The emperor raised his eyebrows, with some interest.
"It's a pity that this temper still doesn't stink enough, and I actually stopped halfway, and I didn't have a chance to let your baby and her witch dance compare who is more powerful." He laughed.
The king of Dongping was indifferent. Reach out and pluck the golden hairpin from your head.
This is actually not a golden hairpin. Rather, a hosta is wrapped with gold leaf.
In the dim light, this gold leaf pattern is unique and the shape cannot be seen.
"Although it is the sun god bird of the ancient Shu Witch King, I think it will always be a person, not a tool." He said, looking at the hairpin in his hand. "At most, I can keep the soul of Princess Xianrong alive."
The Emperor smiled. Raise your hand and shake your sleeves.
"Keep your baby. I also saw the real witch dance, which confirmed that the records in the book are not all nonsense, so happy. I want to be rewarded. ”
…………………………………………….
Xie Wenxing has been waiting outside the palace gate for half a day with a letter of apology, but there is still no way to complain.
Seeing that it was getting dark, the people from the six yamen were gone, and the palace gate was about to be closed, and there was no way to send this confession in.
"Do you know what that means?" He looked at the palace gate and said in despair.
Shao Mingqing also looked at the palace gate and ignored him.
He didn't want to know what that meant, he just wanted to know what was going on in the palace.
Why hasn't there been any news for half a day?
"This shows that the emperor refuses to accept our indictment, so these people refuse to accept it, so no one has revealed any news to us." Xie Wenxing said, "The painstaking management of this qiē, the good fortune of the Xie family given by God, is all wasted like this!" ”
"The palace door is open!" Shao Mingqing shouted, raised his feet and rushed over.
Xie Wenxing woke up smartly, and saw that someone was really coming to the palace gate in front of him, and the lights were turning on one by one, and the two small figures under the towering city gate were getting smaller and smaller.
"Megumi!" Xie Wenxing shouted and rushed over.
Shao Mingqing was much faster than him, but when he got in front of these two girls, he couldn't help but stop.
The clothes worn by these two girls are not the ones Xie Roujia wore when she went out.
Thoughts flashed through him, and one of them held out his hand to him.
Shao Mingqing reached out to catch it without hesitation.
"Jiajia, are you alright? Are there any injuries? He asked in a loud voice.
Xie Wenxing also stopped in front of Xie Rouhui.
"What the hell is going on? Megumi, why don't you look at your sister. He shouted, "What now?" Let her get into such a catastrophe......"
Before he finished speaking, he heard the sound of footsteps in the palace gate, and at the same time bright lights poured out.
"The emperor has a reward."
The shouts of the chamberlain pierced the front of the palace gate.
The emperor has a reward?
Xie Wenxing and the others all looked over.
I don't know who to reward, but at this moment, I heard that it was really salt on the wound.
Xie Wenxing muttered in his heart.
The chamberlain stopped in front of them.
"Master Xie, Second Miss Xie." He said, stretching out his hand and pointing behind him, "Your Majesty rewards you." ”
Reward us?
Xie Wenxing looked over blankly, and saw that behind the waiter, there were two small waiters holding a scroll, and as the waiter spoke, the two pulled the scroll apart.
Large golden letters glittered under the torches.
Stand tall in the sky.
Stand up to the sky!
Xie Wenxing's legs were weak, he knelt down, and fell to the ground holding the confession in his hand tightly.
Is he blind or hell?
"Oh, Lord Xie, get up quickly, Your Majesty has given you the Xie family to stand up to the sky, which is to save you from kneeling."
The voice of the chamberlain flickered in his ears.
Stand tall in the sky.
The emperor gave Xie his family to stand up to the heavens and the earth.
After the daughter of the Xie family fought in the palace.
The corners of Xie Wenxing's mouth twitched, not only did he not stand up as the waiter said, but he fell to the ground and fainted.
There was chaos in front of the palace gate.
Xie Rouhui took a few steps back in a daze, avoiding Xie Wenxing, who fainted, and Shao Mingqing, who was giving a salute to the emperor on behalf of Xie Wenxing.
Like the girl, she looked at the words.
Stand tall in the sky.
Stand up to the sky.
She closed her eyes and faltered.
God deceives! God deceives!
