Chapter 396: Must Kneel
Xiahou Huang pulled Princess Lianxiang to a remote place, looked left and right, and made sure that only those who were not following him dared to speak with confidence. #& Most - Update, Arrived"
"Lianxiang, how dare you wander around the street, if you are discovered by Xiahou Yuan's people, they will definitely arrest you back. The queen mother is dead, the crown prince and brother are in prison again, and I have already lost power, if you were Xiahou Yuan, would you allow the person who threatens his throne to exist? ”
"I know what to do, that's why I escaped from the palace." Facing her own brother, the resentment in Princess Lianxiang's heart was suppressed, showing her weak side, and she cried aggrievedly, "Brother Seventh Emperor, what should we do in the future?" How serious is the quarrel between the queen mother and the crown prince's brother, I think you should know that the father will definitely not help us, I am really scared now, I am afraid ......"
She was afraid of death, afraid that she would die first if she couldn't solve the Thousand Butterfly Dance.
"Don't expect our mediocre father, he only has immortality in his heart, and nothing else. Hmph, don't look at Xiahou Yuan's majesty now, if he can't meet his father's requirements, he won't be able to sit on the throne for long. Xiahou Huang said very disdainfully, in fact, only he knew the Tao, he was just comforting himself.
I thought that the throne belonged to the crown prince and the royal brother, otherwise it was another prince, and it would definitely not be Xiahou Yuan's, who knows......
It's useless to think about it now, so why bother?
"Even if Xiahou Yuan's throne is not long in coming, we are afraid that we will not be able to survive when he is no longer on the throne! Brother Seven Emperors, what should we do next? I wanted to get mixed up in the Ink Castle and survive this catastrophe with their support, but I was driven out by Thousand Butterfly Dance, and I just did something to her, and I almost killed her a little bit, which is a pity. Thinking of what happened just now, Princess Lianxiang was very annoyed, as long as she shot a little faster.
"Don't be a fool and talk about dreams, even if you add ten more of you, you won't be able to move a thousand butterflies to dance a single hair." Xiahou Huang said disdainfully, paused, and turned to emotion, "Hey...... Since being demoted to a commoner, I have learned too many lessons, and I have realized how stupid I used to be. ”
"Outwit."
"That's right, outwit, you can only outwit first, or make yourself stronger, otherwise we will only suffer if we fight with Ink Castle."
Princess Lianxiang listened to Xiahou Huang's words, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that it made sense, the reason why she failed to marry Jimo Wuming was because she fell for the trick of Thousand Butterfly Dance, otherwise, she would have been the second lady of Mo Castle a long time ago, so she nodded in agreement, "That's true, Thousand Butterfly Dance is good at scheming, and one accidentally fell into her trap, and I also suspect that Jimo Wuxuan is so desperate for her, and he also fell for her conspiracy." ”
Isn't it a plan, with Jimo Wuxuan's cold and domineering nature, will he be obedient to a woman?
"That's their business, we don't have to bother with it, you just need to know the Dao, that is, Mo Wuxuan and Thousand Butterfly Dance are our enemies."
"Of course I know that they are our enemies, but with our current strength, how can we deal with them?" If Thousand Butterfly Dance hadn't let her go just now, I'm afraid that she would have been killed by Jimo Wuming, but she wouldn't be grateful to Thousand Butterfly Dance.
"Find a way to rescue the crown prince and brother first, and talk about other things later."
"The crown prince and the royal brother are locked up in the prison, Xiahou Yuan must have sent a lot of people to guard it, how can we save it?" She never thought about rescuing the crown prince's brother, not because she didn't want to do it for a long time, but because she knew that she couldn't save it.
It's a problem for them to protect themselves now, let alone save people.
"There's always a way, let's get out of here and wait for a bit of limelight before we act. Walk. Xiahou Huang checked the people and things nearby, and didn't find anything suspicious, so he pulled Princess Lianxiang to a more remote alley.
However, he didn't know what to say, and in a hidden corner somewhere, two pairs of eyes were staring at them.
A man in a black robe also put on a hat on his robe, vaguely covering his face so that people could not see his face clearly.
Behind the robed man, stood a young man, also dressed in black.
The young man saw Xiahou Huang and Princess Lianxiang walking away, so he spoke: "Lord, do you want to arrest them back?" ”
"After rescuing Xia Houran, I will bring them back together. Today is the three-day period, right, is the prison ready to be fixed? The black-robed man was extremely calm, exuding a mysterious aura all over his body, and his face was half-covered by a hat, so that people could not see what his expression was at this time.
"The prison has already been set up, so Xia Houran has to agree, we can rescue him from the prison at any time, I'm afraid he won't agree."
"He'll agree."
"How can the Lord be sure?"
"Would a hateful man be willing to spend the rest of his life in prison? You do what you plan, and it's best to bring Xia Houran out tonight. Xiahou Yuan is going to have a banquet for the ministers today, and the people from Mo Castle have also gone with me, so I can just go to Mo Castle to get something. The black-robed man smiled slightly, turned around and left, and disappeared into the deserted alley after a while.
The young man did not follow, and when the black-robed man walked away, he walked in the opposite direction, which was the direction to the palace.
Xiahou Yuan feasted his ministers in the palace, ostensibly to win over people, but in fact he wanted to determine who could continue to be retained and who must be removed, so as to stabilize the chaotic situation.
The officials who came to the banquet all hung their hearts, afraid that they would end up with a lot of people if they were not careful, so they were all very nervous, always paying attention to their words and deeds, and trying to say as little as possible, so as not to cause trouble.
Those who are loyal to Xiahou Ran, Xiahou Yuan has already tried to get rid of them, and the rest are those who are not firm, and some are the people who see the wind and steer the rudder, for this part of the people, Xiahou Yuan chooses to leave them for the time being, and then deal with them when the situation is stable.
At the banquet, it was extremely deserted, no one dared to take the initiative to speak, just tasted the refreshments there, and some people were even worried that the refreshments were poisonous, so they didn't even dare to touch them, so they sat there.
Xiahou Yuan knew what these ministers were thinking, and he also knew that the scene was very cold, but he felt that it didn't matter, and he was waiting for people while sipping refreshments, full of patience.
Xiao Zhou was waiting on the side, feeling that it was not too early, but he was a little unhappy when he saw the people from Ink Castle coming, and whispered in Xiahou Yuan's ear: "Your Majesty, the people from Ink Castle have not yet arrived, and they can't help but take you too seriously." It's just Mo Wuxuan, but the Thousand Butterflies Dance ......"
Before Xiao Zhou finished speaking, Xiahou Yuan had already reprimanded him, "Xiao Zhou, this kind of thing is not allowed to be said again in the future, otherwise don't blame me for turning my face and being ruthless." There are some things you don't understand, so shut me up. ”
"Yes, the minion understood." Xiao Zhou was reprimanded like this, and he didn't dare to say more, but he still felt sorry for his master in his heart.
The master likes the Thousand Butterfly Dance so much, and the Thousand Butterfly Dance doesn't appreciate it, but he doesn't respect the master, which is really hateful.
It's a pity that he doesn't have the final say in this matter, otherwise he would have ......
Just when Xiao Zhou secretly thought of cruel words, the guards walked in and reported respectfully: "Emperor Qiqi, Mo Castle and others have arrived and are waiting outside." ”
Knowing that Thousand Butterfly Dance was coming, Xiahou Yuan showed a rare smile on his face, and said excitedly: "Quick, invite them in." ”
Xiao Zhou saw Xiahou Yuan's reaction like this, and muttered in a low voice: "How can there be a reason for the emperor and others?" It's too much. ”
Xiahou Yuan's mind was all on Thousand Butterfly Dance, so he didn't notice Xiao Zhou, let alone hear his muttering words, and looked ahead with his eyes, waiting for the person he liked to appear.
He knew that it was impossible to get this woman in his life, and he didn't have much delusion about her, at best, he just wanted to see her a few more times, and that was enough.
Qiandiewu and Jimo Wuxuan walked in side by side, in order to help Xiahou Yuan stabilize the overall situation and establish the emperor's authority, they also knelt down and saluted him, "The people knock to see the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live." ”
Jimo Wuxuan didn't kneel, he stood there, and when he saw Qiandiewu kneeling down, he was very displeased, and wanted to pull her up, but he was pulled down by her, "Wuxuan, hurry up and salute the emperor." ”
"For the ......" Ji Mo Wuxuan never thought about kneeling at all, especially kneeling to his rival in love, his face was extremely ugly, and he wanted to refute.
But Thousand Butterfly Dance didn't give him a chance to refute, and kept pulling him down, and persuaded him in a low voice, "Just this once, just once." ”
For Jimo Wuxuan, even if it was once, he couldn't do it, so he still didn't kneel, just simply shook his hands and saluted Xiahou Yuan, "Knock to see the emperor." ”
Jimo Wuming and the three gentlemen and others immediately stood together with Mo Wuxuan, holding hands and saluting, without kneeling, "Knock to see the emperor." ”
Lin Miaozhu was extremely contradictory, he didn't know whether he should kneel with Qiandiewu, or stand and salute with Jimo Wuming, hesitated for a moment, and for the sake of completeness, he still knelt on his knees, but his knees only bent down for a moment, and he was immediately pulled up.
Jimo Wuming didn't let Lin Miaozhu kneel, pulled her, and whispered in her ear: "No need. ”
"But ......"
"If you say you don't have to, you don't have to, you listen to me."
"Oh." This kind of work, okay?
Whether it's good or not, it's already like this anyway, and she has to face reality.
Qiandiewu shook her head helplessly, she had already expected the result to be like this, just because she had expected it, so she didn't tell Jimo Wuxuan in advance, lest he object to her kneeling.
This kneeling, she must kneel, only in this way will the contradiction between Mo Castle and the royal family not intensify too quickly, and only in this way can Xiahou Yuan's throne be secured faster.
"There's no need to be polite, I called you here today, not to give you a horse, but to get together with everyone as a friend, so all courtesies are waived." Xiahou Yuan didn't get angry because Jimo Wuxuan and the others didn't kneel, and easily found a step for himself, and when he saw that Qiandiewu was still kneeling, he quickly called her up, "Dish...... Madame, please get up, you are pregnant with Liujia, and you don't need to be polite. ”
Jimo Wuxuan saw that Xiahou Yuan was concerned about Qiandie Dance, and he was a little jealous, and he didn't want to be left behind Xiahou Yuan, so he personally helped Qiandie Dance up, "Butterfly Dance, get up." ”
After helping the person up, he looked at Xiahou Yuan expressionlessly
