62. When I heard what he said, my heart felt as if I had been stuffed with a thousand coptis
Jiang Mei was in a nervous mood along the way, although she looked calm on the surface, and she also knew that the probability that Xia Zheng summoned her to ask the teacher was relatively high, but she still wanted to see what Xia Zheng's expression was when he saw this pillow.
When she came to the study, Jiang Mei knocked on the door carefully.
"Jiang Mei, don't be afraid, I'm here." Ah Xiu glanced at Jiang Mei, then opened the door and pushed Jiang Mei in.
As soon as she entered the study, Jiang Mei hid her pillow behind her.
Jiang Mei looked up at Xia Zheng, only to see that he was sitting there without any joy or anger, and he had been looking at her since Jiang Mei entered this room.
Jiang Mei swallowed her saliva with difficulty, and for some reason, she felt that she saw anger in Xia Zheng's eyes.
"Your Majesty, before you punish the minions, can you listen to the minions?"
Xia Zheng glanced at her, but did not speak. Jiang Mei seemed to be encouraged, and said with difficulty: "When the minister went to court today, he was sleepy again, which really shouldn't be." ”
"I heard that the emperor has not slept well in recent days?"
Xia Zheng frowned: "Jiang Mei, let's talk about the key points." ”
Jiang Mei simply walked to Xia Zheng's desk, put the pillow she had made in front of him, and said with a sigh: "If you don't sleep well at night, I hope it can help you." ”
Xia Zheng's gaze fell heavily on the ugly pillow on the table, and he didn't move for a long time.
"You did it?"
Xia Zheng's voice was still low.
Jiang Mei's heart trembled when she was asked by this voice, and she let out a somewhat embarrassed "um", and she didn't dare to look up at Xia Zheng's expression.
In the next second, Jiang Mei's hand was held by Xia Zheng.
Xia Zheng raised Jiang Mei's hand and looked at it carefully.
"With needles in your hands, and sleepy on your face, you will fall asleep when you go to court today. Also, do I need you to do this? Did I make these demands on you? ”
Jiang Mei's hand loosened, she clearly saw Xia Zheng frowning, listening to what he said, her heart felt as uncomfortable as if she had stuffed a thousand coptis.
"Your Majesty," Jiang Mei squeezed out a smile, "Minions are just ......"
"Just what?"
"Where did you find all these herbs?" Xia Zheng asked suddenly.
"Are these herbs ......" Jiang Mei's voice hesitated.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door at this time: "Your Majesty, the guards of Su Yuan ask to see you!" ”
Xia Zheng glanced at Jiang Mei lightly, she lowered her head, she couldn't see her expression clearly, but her hands were tightly grasping the corners of her clothes.
The substitute little eunuch outside opened the door for the guards, and as soon as the guards entered the door, they knelt on the ground, and it seemed that they could not kneel for a long time.
"Your Majesty, the little one is the guard guarding Su Garden, and it seems that someone sneaked into Su Garden last night."
Xia Zheng heard what he said, Huo Ran got up, and even Jiang Mei, who was standing not far from the table, seemed to be able to feel his anger.
"What did you say?!"
Xia Zheng seemed to rarely be so excited, Jiang Mei couldn't help but hold her breath and wait for the following.
The guard knelt on the ground with a crying voice and said anxiously: "When Xiao Xiao led his men to inspect in person this morning, he found that there were great traces of trampling...... Mr. Song Jing is not here, and the little one can only come to the emperor first......"
"The little ones are willing to obey the emperor's orders." The guard knelt on the ground in resignation.
Xia Zheng strode to Jiang Mei's side, Jiang Mei's heart tightened, Xia Zheng just slowly pulled out the Yanling knife on her waist.
Xia Zheng rested the Yanling knife on top of the guard's head, and his voice was as cold as ice: "You came to sue me, whether you use your life to compensate for your own dereliction of duty, or use your life to compensate for my Su Yuan." ”
