Chapter 31: Are You Worthy?
After Emperor Xiao Zuo's edict was announced to the world, the weather still did not become clear. Although there is no heavy snowfall, the sparse snow slag will be patronized every once in a while.
In this case, Xiao Zuo was extremely busy, day and night with the reused ministers and a few adult princes, studying good strategies for disaster relief and exterminating bandits. Among them, there are the second son Xiao Zhong, the fifth son Xiao Shi, the seventh son Xiao An, and the ninth son Xiao Zhen. In fact, the tenth son, Xiao Mu, has also participated in political affairs. But for some reason, this time it was completely neglected. Only those who know understand in their hearts that who made King De Xiao Mu rank tenth? The emperor should each respond to this number, and he couldn't help but be angry when he heard this number.
The rumor that the son of Xiao Yu, the former ten kings, is the true dragon of the destiny, is like a strange ghost fire in the wilderness, unpredictable and inextinguishable, and now even the children begging on the street will hum the nursery rhyme of "The son of the ten kings, the lord of the world". However, there are many things going on in the DPRK and China, and they cannot spare the energy to vigorously investigate the source of this rumor. wanted to forcibly suppress it, several old ministers trembled and cried in the court: The mouth of the people is worse than the emperor of Fangchuan! Don't be reckless! It's better to be blocked! Don't be reckless!
So the thorn in the emperor's heart can only be placed there clearly, and he can't touch it or pull it out. Poor King De was completely implicated. Fortunately, I was not angry, and I was actually lucky.
That night, Xiao Zhen came back from the palace very late. is the so-called cold before frost, cold after snow, such a winter night, it seems that even the air is about to be frozen and cracked, but Xiao Zhen did not take a warm car, but walked alone. His guards were all far behind, and they all knew that His Highness had been in a very bad mood lately and didn't like others to approach.
The dim sky, the bleak long street, the echoing sound of horses' hooves, and the feeling of emptiness everywhere. Xiao Zhen took a deep breath of the cold air that could sting his lungs, and only felt that as long as he was quiet, he would fall into trouble.
Liuli is unwilling to marry him! At that time, I only felt anger and humiliation, and incomprehension. After that, my heart slowly ached. It was his fault that he first said that he would not marry someone else, and did not take into account the self-esteem of a woman who had just entered Beijing. It's just that I decided it later, and I really haven't changed my mind again.
What to do? He didn't want to give up just like that, but he understood that Liuli was not a hypocritical person, and it wasn't Naqiao to say that, he was really going to regret his marriage. But what is he going to do to redeem it? Do you want to force marriage? After all, it is a family matter decided by the emperor himself, and he can't just retreat. But if it humiliates his pride too much, Liuli will despise her, and from then on, he will lose even the respect and goodwill that Liuli has for him.
But really let Liuli follow Eleven? He couldn't explain his heart. His dignity and face couldn't stand such an offense, and he didn't know how to mention it to his father?
He was in a dilemma, and at this time he suddenly hated Liuli. Why did she throw the problem to him? She was the one who first empathized with other loves, didn't she? She should find a way to deal with the outcome of everything!
No matter how long the road is, no matter how slow you go, you will get there. In a state of distraction, Xiao Zhen finally returned to the gate of his Jin Palace. It's just that before he got off the horse, the man who came up to lead the horse whispered, "His Royal Highness the King of Huijin, the King of Linshan County is waiting over there." Wait...... I've been waiting for more than an hour. β
Xiao Zhen frowned and subconsciously turned his head to look.
I saw the wide driveway in front of the palace. There was a lavishly decorated carriage, drawn by four tall horses, and the noble wooden carriage was covered with thick felt. The headlights are bright, and the corners are flying. It's easy to overlook the shadows that form on the side of the wall. And once noticed, it is impossible to look at.
Xiao Zhen's heart was on fire, and he suddenly burst out.
That day, he impulsively did it to Xiao Yu. Later, I heard that Xiao Yu was seriously injured and didn't go out during the Chinese New Year, so he felt a little guilty. Although Xiao Yu deserves it. But after all, the two have been friends for more than ten years, and their friendship is not ordinarily deep, so there is still a little unbearable hatred. However, he made up his mind not to associate with this unrighteous person who pried him into the corner, and he didn't even bother to say a word, and told the people guarding the door in the mansion that whoever came from Linshan County himself or sent someone was not allowed to step into the palace of the king of Jin.
But what annoyed him even more was that during the entire Chinese New Year, Xiao Yu really didn't appear, there was no word of greeting, and the words of apology were even more indebted, and even the servants who sent New Year's gifts in previous years were nowhere to be seen.
Yes, he really doesn't want to have anything to do with Xiao Yu anymore, and it's clean if they don't see each other. However, this is not the same as the other party not coming to show favor and beg for mercy at all. This shows that Xiao Yu is unrepentant and wants to fight with him to the end. Did Xiao Yu do anything good? How dare you be so justified! So what are you doing today? And he didn't even have the slightest intention of taking the slightest sin, sitting in such a gorgeous warm carriage, so swaggering, so condescending, so condescending. Look at himself again, how pitiful he is in masochism!
In the final analysis, what he hates more is self-pity, mother-in-law, mother-in-law, and self who can afford it but can't let it go. At this time, he was angry, and it was all because of the attitude of the rival, so he simply left others and strode towards the carriage of the county king's mansion.
He had already been reminded, and as soon as he approached, the coachmen and guards of the county king's mansion retreated into the distance as quickly as possible, as if he were a flood beast. Now Xiao Zhen is even more angry, who is the despicable villain, how can he make him like a villain?
"Xiao Shiyi!" He drank low.
"It's Brother Eleven." Xiao Yu corrected Xiao Zheng as always.
Xiao Zheng was angry in his heart, but he was sour. This is the most frequent conversation between them, which is boring, but it represents a deep friendship.
Only now, it's all gone!
"Are you worthy?" Xiao Zhen sneered.
Xiao Yu pushed the car door, because the cold wind suddenly poured in, causing him to cough sharply a few times.
This caused Xiao Zhen to be a little surprised, even if he knew that Xiao Yu was seriously injured, he didn't expect it to be such a weak situation. Others don't know, but he knows that Xiao Yu's martial arts are very high and he rarely gets sick. It was these things that he wanted to hide from his father, but Xiao Yu didn't hide it from him, and the two of them had a heart-to-heart with each other. After all, it seems to be a small matter, but it is related to Xiao Yu's life and death.
His father, although he was eloquent and strategic, was very suspicious. It's a pity that he just believed in this fateful friendship, thinking that there was nothing untrustworthy, and the result was ...... I was robbed of my fiancΓ©e, and I loved it.
"The clan ranks naturally, and it has nothing to do with whether it is worthy or not." Xiao Yu endured the severe pain in his lungs, pulled the corners of his lips, and said softly.
Xiao Zhen was even more angry, in the end, he understood that Xiao Yu did not feel guilty and indebted, and his expression was still a little arrogant. This is the one who robbed the brother woman. Should there be an attitude? Is this intended to completely tear the face, so it means not to be emotional?
It's just that Xiao Yu's appearance has lost a lot of weight, his chin is sharper, and his long eyebrows and phoenix eyes are more arrogant. The face is very bad, it should be seriously injured, and it looks like an internal injury has not healed. However, he was dressed in extraordinary luxury, a wide-sleeved robe with emerald weaves, a gold crown with beads on his head, a half-barreled deerskin boot embroidered with gold thread, and a jade belt at his waist. The huge ruby fingers on his pale hand pierced his eyes with a red glow. Although his whole person was sickly and calm, he was aggressive.
This is...... Demonstrations, or robberies with open fire?
Xiao Zhen suddenly calmed down and stepped into the car.
Why? Xiao Yu leaned on the high seat cushion, but he stood below like a guard and spoke!
And his sudden move, Xiao Yu seemed to have expected it, and his face did not fluctuate at all. Fortunately, the carriage is not only gorgeous in appearance. The inside is also wide and warm, and as the car door is closed by someone who sneaks back somewhere, it becomes a small world that is not cramped.
"Tell me, what the hell do you want! Get out of the way. I don't want to see you, I'm going to spit out the overnight meal! Xiao Zhen said coldly, in the end, he couldn't help but be emotional. He is the pride of the sky, and he has never even been humiliated since he was a child. Unlike Xiao Yu, who has struggled to survive all the way since he was a child, his mentality and performance are completely different when facing setbacks.
"It should ...... I asked you what to do? Xiao Yu was faint, leaning against the wall of the car. Speaking weakly, but the words are heartfelt, "What you don't want to see, what you don't want to do, everyone has a lot, but it's useless to escape." The resentment that the Buddhists say must be like this, right? β
He was very seriously injured and a little short of breath, and after saying these two words, he gasped for a while before he said, "I'm sorry for you, but you beat me violently, and I didn't say a word, and I didn't fight back." At that time, I thought that if you beat me to death, it would be fate, and it would be considered your brotherhood. But since you're not dead, Jiurou, I don't owe you any more! It's okay to accompany you with your life, and some words can be said directly at this time, and you don't need to hide them. β
He inhaled two more breaths, "So, what are you going to do with Ruri?" She doesn't like you, what the hell are you going to do about it? Hide from her, or drag it and ignore it, or be a turtle with a shrunken head? β
The word "shrunken turtle" made Xiao Zhen almost jump, but he held back, but his eyes were colder, "You mean she likes you?" Or do you think I should fulfill you? Ha Lu Ha Da Lu laughed a few times, and then said, "This king is not threatened, nor is he fed by the mouth. Ruri doesn't like me, and I won't force it on her, and I won't hurt her. It's just you, that's another story. This king does not accept betrayal and will not easily forgive the shameless. As for what happens between us, can you control it? β
"Really?" Xiao Yu was still faint, not in a hurry or angry, but the heavy eyelashes and the green shadow under his eyes made his half-closed eyes look even more bottomless, "The king of this county is different from you, what I want, I will definitely grab it, no matter who the opponent is, no matter what the price is." β
"Did you get it?" Xiao Zhen snorted, "I broke off the marriage contract with her, and with my father's practice, I must give her to other princes." My second brother, fifth brother, and seventh brother are all married to the main concubine, and if she remarries, she can only be a side concubine. Because, your father will never tolerate the power of the Cao Gang being used by others, and can only be attributed to the royal family. Speaking of this, he looked at Xiao Yu with disdain, "Even, she may be married as the prince's concubine, but she will not marry a county king." Now this king asks again, are you worthy? β
