Chapter 14: Liu Xu's Warning
"Xuan'er didn't want the mourning family to be kept in the dark by you, so she told the mourning family, don't blame her. The Queen Mother said, "Since you asked Jiang Liu to do these things, have you ever told Xuan'er? She is your fiancΓ©e, and you will be the closest person in the world in the future, these things should not be hidden from her in the first place, since you don't say it, don't blame others for thinking too much." β
After a pause, the Queen Mother said: "If she is really as you said, she is going to go to a semi-serious matter, it doesn't matter." It's just that she's a weak woman, and it's safe from the outside to the bottom, so you can send someone to fetch her back. β
"The grandson obeyed. Liu Xu said, "If there is nothing else to do, and the grandson has some other things, he will retire first." β
"Let the prince enter the palace more often to accompany the mourning family, this little thing has not entered the palace for a long time. β
"Yes. β
Liu Xu retreated, Xie Xuan wiped his tears, knelt on the ground, looked at the Queen Mother and said: "Today is Xuan'er's event, I didn't expect to misunderstand Concubine Jiang, it really shouldn't be, Xuan'er will reflect on herself, there will be no such thing that angers the prince again, and it will not embarrass the Queen Mother." β
"Today is also the prince's bad, you don't have to blame yourself, if it weren't for you today, the mourning family wouldn't know about this matter!" the queen mother sighed, "Don't cry, get up." The prince is still a little rusty with you, you have to be gentle, so that he can accept you as soon as possible. The mourning family really thinks that you are a natural couple, and they don't want to promote a pair of resentful couples. β
Xie Xuan's heart chuckled for a moment, and then lowered his eyes and said, "Yes, Xuan'er knows how to do it." β
It is said that she is not a very impulsive person, she went to the prince's mansion today, but she was told that His Royal Highness went to Qiushui Garden, and it was at this time, he couldn't forget Jiang Liu in his heart, which made her and her frustration, extremely angry, she wanted to destroy Jiang Liu, even if His Royal Highness protected her and couldn't forget her, she would never come back, and she didn't believe that His Royal Highness would give up the prince's position for her, so he desperately told the Queen Mother about Jiang Liu, but he never thought that His Royal Highness would defend her to this point.
Xie Xuan was a little panicked in her heart, and she also felt absent-minded when she talked with the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother saw it and asked her to go back to rest, so she got up and thanked her and said goodbye.
didn't expect Liu Xu to be waiting for her at the door of Fengxi Palace.
Xie Xuan was shocked when he saw Liu Xuyin's face, and said with a light smile: "Why hasn't Your Highness gone back yet, is it deliberately waiting for Xuan'er to fail?"
"Yes, this palace proposes to wait for you here. Liu Xu said lightly, "This palace has always thought that you are a smart woman, but I didn't expect that you are just as stupid as an ordinary woman." β
Xie Xuan's face changed, he bit his lip, and said angrily, "Your Highness, what do you mean by this?"
"If you want to marry this palace, you will be your crown princess in the future, don't think about meddling in other things in this palace, and don't think about anything that doesn't belong to you, otherwise, you will only gain more than you lose. Liu Xu said coldly, "Bengong remembers reminding you last time that some things should be done in moderation, and you don't seem to take Bengong's words to heart." β
"Your Highness refers to Jiang Liu's matter?" Xie Xuan was born in the Langya Xie family, and he had his own arrogance, and he was told by Liu Xu, how could he be happy in his heart, "It is His Royal Highness who should recognize the facts, Concubine Jiang, she has already left, she has already left Your Highness, Your Highness, no matter how many excuses you find to deceive the Queen Mother, she will not come back." Why should Your Highness remember a person who has lived up to His Highness's affection, why can't Your Highness, you can't see the person in front of you, and cherish the person in front of you?"
After a pause, the corners of Xie Xuan's mouth were raised, she was incomparably beautiful, she approached Liu Xu a few points, and said: "Xuan'er has never felt that Xiao really wants something that does not belong to Xuan'er, whether it is the position of the crown princess or the heart of His Royal Highness, Xuan'er has to get it!"
Liu Xu smiled disdainfully, just glanced at her coldly, and turned to leave.
Xie Xuan gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, and sneered: "What I want to get, I haven't gotten it yet, the more His Highness treats me, the more I won't give up!"
Nan Chu.
After Mo Ziyu and the county lord of Leyi separated, she continued to hurry, wanting to rush to Northern Xinjiang, and the shortest route was from Northern Xia, but she didn't want to return to Northern Xia, so she planned to bypass from Western Wei.
After two more days, Mo Ziyu and the three of them rested in a tea house.
At this time, a group of people pressed the soldiers to pass by, and they also rested in the tea house.
"Little Er, hurry up and serve tea, I'm dying of thirst!" a soldier shouted.
The others all sat down with a big grin, urging them to hurry up and serve tea, and these twenty or so people filled the small tea house.
On the other side were five or six people they escorted, these five or six people were chained hand and foot, dressed in prison clothes, sitting outside under the tree to rest, the younger ones were only ten years old, and the older ones had all white hair, and they did not know what crime they had committed.
The soldiers drank their tea and began to chat.
From their miscellaneous conversations, Mo Ziyu probably knew that these people were all under the command of King Pingdong, and they were responsible for escorting all the fugitives back.
Mo Ziyu couldn't help but take another look at the six people, they were all old, weak, sick and disabled, but they didn't know how they were selected into the barracks.
Then the boy shouted, "Sir, we have not drunk a sip of water all the way, and we are really thirsty, so you can do well, and give us a sip of water." β
As soon as his voice fell, one of the officers and soldiers closest to him pulled out his whip and threw it at him, scolding: "What kind of thing are you, a deserter still has so many demands! If it weren't for you deserters who are greedy for life and afraid of death, would our brothers have been able to escort them back from afar? If you dare to make demands now, why don't you die!"
"Don't fight! Don't fight!" the boy begged for mercy, "I don't dare anymore, please be beaten!"
The old man also begged for mercy: "Sir, he is still a child, so you should be merciful!"
The officer kicked over and spat on the ground: "Old thing, don't meddle!"
The other officers and soldiers, who should eat and drink, seemed to have long been accustomed to the scene in front of them.
"Stop fighting!" a middle-aged man stood up to resist and grabbed the officer's whip, "That's enough, are you going to kill him?"
"Hey, there's a bold one here!" the officer and soldier sneered, "Brothers, there is one here who is not afraid of death!"
Suddenly, five or six people got up on the table, and surrounded the middle-aged man with punches and kicks.
Mo Ziyu frowned, how can this army under the rule of King Pingdong be so virtuous?
"No wonder that fierce woman is so fierce, it turns out that this is their tradition!" Lu Qiao whispered beside Mo Ziyu.
Those few people were beating people, but Mo Ziyu and the people at the table next to them had been drinking tea intently.
"Do you think that the prince of the world can agree to meet with the king of Dongping?" asked a young man.
"If the prince wants to recover the capital, he must cooperate with the king of Dongping, and now he is waiting for our prince, in order to let our prince cooperate with the army, he will definitely agree to meet with our prince. The prince can afford to wait, he can't afford to spend it!" The other scar man replied, "You can rest assured of this." β
"It's a matter of time before the capital is breached, so will you give this throne to the prince?" said the young man unwillingly.
"How is it possible!" The scar man smiled hesitantly, with a hint of coldness in his eyes, "After the prince arrives at our prince's territory, he can't let him decide!
"You mean, the prince made a Hongmen banquet?"
Several people laughed maliciously.
Mo Ziyu listened to everything, her eyes shrank, she gave Lu Qiao and Qin Yi a look, and then got up and walked in the direction of the store to make tea.
These men continued to drink tea and eat cakes, and after resting, they continued to hurry with the prisoners, and when they had only walked a mile, these people felt dizzy, and then they all fainted.
Mo Ziyu and the three of them appeared, glanced at the fainted officers and soldiers, and then searched for the keys from them and opened the bracelets and anklets of the six prisoners.
"Let's go!"
"Dare to ask who the girl is?"
"Don't want to ask, you can each run for your lives!" Mo Ziyu said lightly.
Just when the old and young were about to leave together, Mo Ziyu suddenly stopped them, and the old man turned around and hugged his fists and said, "What else does the girl command?"
Mo Ziyu took out a bottle of gold sore medicine and gave it to the young man, and said with a light smile: "When you get to a safe place, remember to apply the medicine, this medicine has a good effect, don't be reluctant to use it." β
The boy gratefully accepted the medicine bottle.
Lu Qiao asked curiously: "How can one of you be conscripted when you are so old and the other is so young?"
"Hey, according to the rules of Nanchu, men who are older than sixty and less than fifteen do not need to be conscripted, but this king of Dongping wants to quickly expand his men, all men are forcibly recruited, and there are older than me in the barracks, and there are also younger than him! The old man said.
"I see, run for your lives. Mo Ziyu smiled slightly, "How far can you go." β
"Sister!" At this time, Xiaoyi called, "Come and take a look." β
Mo Ziyu turned around, only to see the middle-aged man who had just stopped the beating lying on the ground, blood was constantly gushing out of his mouth, she hurriedly went over to check, and finally shook her head at Xiao Yi, her spleen had been kicked to pieces, and there was no way to live.
At this time, the man suddenly grabbed Mo Ziyu's arm, the green tendons on his forehead were exposed, and he tried all his strength, and said: "Go, go and tell the prince that the king of Dongping is cheating, let the prince not go perfunctory, don't go!"
When the words fell, he suddenly lost his breath and died.
