Chapter 221: Triumph

When Gonggong Yuan saw it, he hurriedly squatted on the ground to pick it up.

"Your Majesty, don't be impatient!" Sun Dongliang saw that the emperor was in a mess, so he hurriedly spoke out and stabilized first, at this time, he must not take anything wrong lightly.

Seeing that the emperor calmed down a little, Sun Dongliang hurriedly said: "After the first time we went to assassinate the King of Qin, the emperor should have been prepared in his heart, and the King of Qin will return to the imperial city safely, after all, when the King of Qin raises his vigilance, it will be even more difficult for us to assassinate him again." ”

It turned out that after the first time the people sent to assassinate Xiao Shujun failed, the emperor and Sun Dongliang sent several waves of people to find Xiao Shujun's whereabouts and wait for an opportunity to kill him, but those people have not returned yet, and the letters that have been sent back also say that the whereabouts of King Qin and others have not been found from beginning to end.

Sun Dongliang knew that Xiao Shujun could come back safely, so he had already been mentally prepared.

"How can you be mentally prepared! When he was in danger, I didn't send troops to help, how should I face it now! The emperor paced back and forth anxiously.

Sun Dongliang saw that this emperor still had a little cowardice hidden in his bones, and he dared to do it, his heart was full of contempt, but he still pretended to be very patient and said: "The matter has come to this, it is useless for the emperor to be too worried, it is better to calm down and think about how to deal with it." ”

"Then Aiqing is talking about how to deal with it!" The emperor had no idea when it came to the critical moment.

It just so happened that Sun Dongliang knew that whatever idea he gave the emperor at this time, the emperor would adopt it, so the methods provided were more or less unscrupulous: "King Qin just knew that we didn't save him, and I didn't know that we would send someone to assassinate him, so we obeyed the wishes of some ministers and decently took the wind and washed the dust for His Royal Highness King Qin." ”

Sun Dongliang thought that he was hiding well, but Xiao Shujun didn't find anything.

"But doesn't this make another record of King Qin's merit in front of the ministers and the people? Didn't King Qin's limelight overshadow me again? "The emperor even wanted to suppress Xiao Shujun and even do something to him.

Although Sun Dongliang was also very anxious to let Xiao Shujun die without a place to be buried, he knew that now was not the time: "The emperor's mood can be understood, but this is in the imperial city, in front of the ministers and the people, it is not good to attack the king of Qin who has just returned from a victory, how can he wait until the right time!" However, Princess Qin may not be able to escape so easily. ”

The emperor agrees with the view that Xiao Shujun can't be moved now, but Qin Kexin still doesn't understand how to move the emperor, "Since King Qin can't move, how can Princess Qin move?" ”

"The emperor thinks about it carefully, Princess Qin went to send grain and grass to King Qin against the holy will, and colluded with the people on the rivers and lakes to fight against the emperor's people on the way, although Princess Qin helped King Qin triumphant, but after all, she was inevitably charged with disobeying the holy will." Sun Dongliang's face was sinister and cunning.

When the emperor heard this, he suddenly realized, and kept praising Sun Dongliang, Qin Kexin was able to help Xiao Shujun triumph, and he really couldn't stay after seeing that this person was really there.

As everyone knows, Sun Dongliang is pushing the emperor into the fire pit.

"Just do what Aiqing said, go, follow me to the king of Qin first!" After the emperor knew what to do, he was relaxed and became a sanctimonious monarch again.

After entering the imperial city, Xiao Shujun and the others were separated from Yu Chiyan, and everyone knew that they couldn't let the emperor and Sun Dongliang know about Yu Chiyan's existence.

However, the scene of returning to the imperial city was different from what Qin Kexin expected on the way back, the emperor did not make it difficult for them, and ordered someone to welcome Xiao Shujun's triumph.

A banquet was also set up in the palace, and the ministers drank and talked happily for Xiao Shujun's triumph.

The ministers who had helped Qin Kexin beg the emperor to support Xiao Shujun before all came to toast Qin Kexin, saying that she was really a heroine among women, and she actually helped King Qin get out of danger by herself, but these emperors all saw it.

The emperor rewarded Xiao Shujun at the banquet.

Xiao Shujun had long been accustomed to the emperor's hypocrisy, thinking that as long as the emperor didn't do anything else, he could endure it anymore.

"Congratulations, His Royal Highness King Qin! Another contribution! Sun Dongliang walked towards Xiao Shujun with wine, obviously hypocritical.

Xiao Shujun didn't want to pay attention to him, and naturally he didn't mean to raise his wine glass and have a drink with Sun Dongliang, Sun Dongliang saw that his hot face was sticking to his cold buttocks, and he stupidly withdrew his hand holding the wine glass, "His Royal Highness King Qin, why is this?" ”

"Don't think that this king doesn't know the bad things that General Sun is doing behind his back, General Sun is good at himself!" Xiao Shujun and his disgusted opening.

When Sun Dongliang heard this, he wondered what Xiao Shujun was talking about? Could it be that he assassinated him himself? But Sun Dongliang was blindly confident in his plan, firmly believing that he would not be exposed, and finally came to the conclusion that Xiao Shujun was talking about the fact that he and the emperor did not send troops to support Xiao Shujun.

So he tried to wash his name: "Don't blame King Qin, didn't the emperor also say it, he received false information before, and thought that His Royal Highness King Qin was fine, Princess Qin fell for the traitor's scheme, and sent the emperor's people to save King Qin, but it was to exterminate the emperor's people......"

Sun Dongliang's reason is a bit far-fetched, but Xiao Shujun knows that Sun Dongliang can't find a better reason than this, after all, it is made up.

But no matter how realistic the reasons made up by Sun Dongliang and the emperor are, Xiao Shujun will not believe it.

"Second brother, let's have a drink." Xiao Shuwei, who was sitting on the side, saw that Sun Dongliang had been pestering Xiao Shujun not to leave, and tried to help Xiao Shujun get rid of Sun Dongliang.

Xiao Shujun immediately understood what Xiao Shuwei meant, turned sideways and talked to Xiao Shuwei about wine, and put Sun Dongliang aside.

Sun Dongliang saw that he was left out in the cold, so he had to leave in a huff......

Qin Kexin didn't have time to think about why the emperor was so normal to pick up the wind and wash the dust for Xiao Shujun, because all she was thinking about was Yu'er, in order to help herself, Yu'er was still locked up in the prison, and if she wasn't rescued, Qin Kexin wouldn't be at ease.

The swaying dance of the Linlang woman has become sarcastic in Qin Kexin's eyes!

"Let's go back and figure it out!" Xiao Shujun saw Qin Kexin's anxiety and knew that she couldn't rest assured.

Qin Kexin nodded slightly, there is only this way, there is no other way!

The disturbing Yingge Yan Dance finally ended, and Xiao Shujun and Qin Kexin returned to the Qin Palace.

"This king will go to beg the emperor to release Yu'er tomorrow, don't worry, madam." Xiao Shujun had already thought of a way.

But Qin Kexin always felt that something was wrong in his heart, even if the emperor was so normal and even enthusiastic to pick up the wind and wash the dust for them, but Qin Kexin always felt that something was going to happen, and things were not so simple.

However, Qin Kexin couldn't figure out what was wrong, so he had to follow what Xiao Shujun said, and begged the emperor to release Yu'er tomorrow.

Xiao Shujun actually wondered why it was so normal, but he also knew that he couldn't guess the emperor's thoughts, so he could only cover up the water with soldiers.

After this soft fragrance garden is busy without Yu'er, Qin Kexin is really uncomfortable! Whenever she sees something related to Yu'er, Qin Kexin's heart is like a knife, and she blames herself for causing Yu'er!

Another night without a good night's sleep......

Finally waited until the morning of the next day, Qin Kexin and Xiao Shujun entered the palace together, waited outside the main hall, waited for Xiao Shujun to go down to the court, and then went together to ask the emperor to release Yu'er.

Qin Kexin thought that the emperor didn't hold herself and Xiao Shujun accountable, Yu'er was a maidservant, and the emperor didn't need to be embarrassed for her.

But Qin Kexin once again underestimated the emperor's insidious and cunning heart, 'When Xiao Shujun and Qin Kexin saw the emperor and explained that the emperor let Yu'er go, the emperor first looked indifferent, and then said: "Princess Qin is about to be unable to protect herself?" Still worried about a servant? ”

"What do you mean!" Xiao Shujun narrowed his dangerous eyes and stared at the emperor who said these words that were unfavorable to Qin Kexin.

Even the emperor was shocked by Xiao Shujun's dangerous eyes, but in order to reflect the majesty of the monarch, the emperor pretended to be calm and said: "Princess Qin transported grain and grass to the border without permission, and also united with the people of the rivers and lakes to hurt my people, although she finally helped the king of Qin come back, but what is the difference between this behavior and disobeying the holy decree?" Disobeying the decree is ...... Capital crime! ”

When Qin Kexin heard this, he suddenly realized that the emperor was waiting for him here, and it turned out that his worries yesterday were really necessary, and the emperor would not let them go easily.

"Your Highness, it's okay to cure Princess Qin's crimes, but it's ...... The minister has a more urgent matter to report to the emperor. Xiao Shujun knew that at this moment, he could only use abnormal means to gamble.

"What's important?" The emperor was obviously a little impatient, and it seemed that there was nothing more important now than curing Qin Kexin's sins.

"On the way back to the imperial city, the minister found a lot of victims, and after investigation, it was found that the disaster relief money issued by the emperor did not reach the victims at all, so someone must have embezzled this money, please come back with me, I know this matter very well, it is better to wait for Princess Qin to help the minister find out the truth, and the emperor will treat Princess Qin's sins, and it may not be possible to make up for the merits when the time comes!"

Hearing this, the emperor's expression seemed to be a little hideous, but it randomly turned into normal anger: "How can this be reasonable!" Embezzling disaster relief funds? I didn't even know about such a big thing! It's better to let Princess Qin help you find out the truth as King Qin said, whether you can atone for your sins depends on the final result.

The emperor knew how big it was to embezzle disaster relief funds, and in the eyes of outsiders, it was much more important than punishing Qin Kexin, so in order not to make people suspect anything, the emperor had to agree to what Xiao Shujun said.

"That Yu'er is ......" Xiao Shujun looked at the emperor with a smile, and it was bound to win.

The emperor didn't have the heart to worry about other things, so he waved his hand: "That's it, why should I embarrass a servant, let it go." ”

Xiao Shujun was gambling just now that the emperor would be distracted by what he said, and now it seems that it is true.

Therefore, Xiao Shujun deduced that most of the disaster relief funds may be related to the emperor.

When Qin Kexin heard what Xiao Shujun said, she immediately understood that Xiao Shujun had told her about the disaster relief money because she was delaying time.
