Chapter 181: Brothers Lose Harmony
The guards knocked on Xiao Ziming's door tremblingly, but after waiting for a while, no one came to open the door. The guard suddenly felt that something was wrong, and stepped forward and kicked the door open, only to see that the room was in a mess, and there were several pieces of clothing on the ground.
Looking at the debris on the ground, Xiao Ziming was sleeping on the bed, and beside him, it was the missing Princess Chonghua who was lying down.
Seeing that there was still blood on Princess Chonghua's forehead, she thought it was bruised. He was covered with a brocade quilt across his body, and his shoulders and legs were exposed.
"Hmph, I really didn't expect Xiao Ziming to be so bold and dare to do such a thing." Zhan Tianhong leaned against the door panel and sneered.
Hearing this, the corners of the guard's mouth twitched slightly, what they were most worried about had happened, this Chonghua princess was like this now, it was impossible to force the son of the Zhan family to marry.
How could things be like this, they obviously put Princess Chonghua into the room of the eldest son of the Zhan family? How will I report to the emperor in a while? Is it possible to tell the emperor that Princess Chonghua was forcibly defiled by the prince of the Marquis of Ningguo's mansion?
"Since such a thing has happened, according to the concubine, it is better to ask Emperor Beiliang to deal with it." Gu Yunxin stood outside the door and said lightly.
"Yes, it is time to invite Your Majesty to preside over it." King Rui echoed softly.
Such a thing was not only seen by the people of Da Zhou, but also by the people of Southern Chu. If you want to hide it, I'm afraid you can't hide it.
"You guys are watching here, and I'll report to the emperor." The commander of the guards said in a deep voice.
Gu Yunxin and King Rui glanced at each other, and King Rui smiled lightly, as if to say, look, your husband and I have a way, otherwise, it would be the brother of the Zhan family who is unlucky now.
Xiao Ziming didn't wake up until the emperor came, and was finally woken up by someone dousing him with a bucket of cold water. And Princess Chonghua was inspected by the palace Shanggong in the palace, and she was no longer a virgin.
Even if you don't check, looking at the plum blossoms on the bed and the blood on your forehead, you can guess what this Chonghua princess has experienced.
"Your Majesty, I didn't do it, it really wasn't me." Xiao Ziming said hurriedly.
On the way back, he was knocked unconscious, and he didn't know what happened after that, and he was still confused. If he hadn't heard the guard's report, he wouldn't have known that Princess Chonghua was sleeping on his bed.
"Not you? Then you tell me, how did my daughter sleep in your bed with her head broken and bleeding? His Majesty Bei Liang rebuked angrily.
The Xiao family has taken refuge in the matter of the Southern King of Beiliang Pingnan, and the Emperor of Beiliang knows about it, but he has also thought about marrying a princess in order to make the Xiao family more desperate to do things for them, but if he marries a princess directly, then the Emperor of the Great Zhou will definitely have doubts.
Now that something like this has happened, God is really helping him. In this way, the princess can be justifiably married to the Xiao family. It's just that what he originally thought was the son of the Zhan family, compared to the Marquis Mansion of Ningguo, the Mansion of Dingguo
But it's even more attractive.
"Your Majesty, Fang Cai Ziming was walking in the courtyard, I don't know who knocked me unconscious, I don't know how I got back to my room, and I don't know why the princess is in my bed." Xiao Ziming said hurriedly.
Although Bei Liang said that he would marry a princess as his concubine, he has always loved Gu Yunxin in his heart, and it is okay for him to marry a side concubine, but he has to keep the position of the concubine for Gu Yunxin.
"Who would believe you when you say that? The princess is found on your bed, and either you marry the princess, or I will kill you right now. Emperor Beiliang said angrily.
He didn't believe that Xiao Ziming was so backbone, and would rather die than give in, if the people of the Xiao family were backbone, how could they do the thing of defecting to the enemy and treason.
Xiao Ziming couldn't help but look at Gu Yunxin not far away, and after seeing Gu Yunxin glance at him lightly, he turned around and left. At that time, Xiao Ziming thought that Gu Yunxin was very disappointed in him, if it wasn't for that, why would he leave so disappointed.
In fact, it was indeed Xiao Ziming who thought too much, Gu Yunxin felt disgusting to look at him more, although Gu Yunxin also knew that Xiao Ziming was designed by someone, but he did not have the ability to resolve it, let alone say it, and he did not have the courage to take responsibility.
"Your Majesty, Ziming still has to report this marriage to his father." Xiao Ziming said in a deep voice.
He didn't see who was plotting against him, although he had some doubts in his heart, why didn't he have any evidence.
Well, marry him, as long as he doesn't love that woman, that woman can't do anything to him.
"Yes, you can pass the book to your father and ask him to come to Beiliang to attend your wedding with Chonghua, my princess of Beiliang must be a wife, do you understand?" Emperor Beiliang raised his eyebrows and said.
"Yes, Ziming knows everything." Xiao Ziming said in a deep voice.
Seeing that Xiao Ziming had agreed, Emperor Beiliang put on a smile and walked away. When he returned to the study, he summoned the crown prince and the king of Pingnan.
"Che'er, now Chonghua is Xiao Ziming's person, if you design someone else, I'm afraid it won't work." Emperor Beiliang said in a deep voice.
"Yes, Ah Che, didn't you ask someone to send Chonghua to Zhan Tianlin's room? Why didn't he design him, but Xiao Ziming? The prince's eyes narrowed slightly.
Before, he was attacked in Beiliang, and he once suspected the king of Guangping, but the king of Guangping had no military power in his hands, and if he wanted to compete with him for the crown prince, it would be to hit the stone with an egg. But King Pingnan is different, he is smarter than himself, and his reputation in the court is higher than himself, saying that he wants to assist him, but who knows if he harbors evil intentions?
Tonight's events were done by his people again, and they were not executed according to the original plan, how could this not make him suspicious.
"Erchen doesn't know about this matter, and when I go back in a while, Erchen will definitely inquire about this matter carefully." King Pingnan arched his hand.
"I'll go back and ask later? King Pingnan, don't you want to shield your subordinates? Or rather, it's all your bidding
Target? The prince raised his voice.
Fang Cai still called Ah Che, after such a while, he was called King Pingnan, which shows that the current prince has no trust in King Pingnan.
"Brother Huang, why did I shield my subordinates, I didn't expect things to turn out like this." King Pingnan frowned.
"Huh, you didn't expect that? That Shen Ke was sent by you, Xiao Ziming's father has already taken refuge in you, Xiao Ziming is also your person, you will marry Xiao Ziming in Chonghua, just to make their Xiao family more desperate to do things for you. Right! The prince raised his eyebrows.
"You...... Don't talk nonsense. "King Pingnan is so angry that he doesn't know what to say, this prince is so stupid, he really wasted so much effort to assist him.
"Father, please also ask your father to be the master, if you don't find out this matter, let alone whether your son can keep the position of the prince, I'm afraid that even my father's throne won't be able to keep it." The prince knelt down and said.
Since ancient times, the king has not allowed others to snore on his pillow, even if it is a father and son, the emperor cannot tolerate him. Hearing the prince say this, Emperor Beiliang couldn't help but look at King Pingnan with some doubts.
"Father, if your father doesn't believe it, you can summon Shen Ke to confront him and see what his sons tell him." King Pingnan said in a deep voice.
Up to now, he said that the emperor and the crown prince would be suspicious, but he just hoped that they could believe Shen Ke's words, and not let their unwarranted suspicions and exploit loopholes for others.
"Okay, come here, summon Shen Ke to see me." Emperor Beiliang said in a deep voice.
About a quarter of an hour later, Shen Ke came to the front of Emperor Beiliang.
"Weichen Shen Ke, I wish the emperor a long life, I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince, and I have seen the prince."
"Shen Ke, let me ask you, how did King Pingnan arrange for you tonight? Otherwise, I will throw you into the mountains to feed the wolves. ”
"Your Majesty, Shen Ke doesn't dare. Tonight, Weichen is in accordance with the prince's instructions, after the misty incense will stun Princess Chonghua, and then send the princess to Zhan Tianlin's room, when the time comes, there will be a guard with Commander Ge to search, and the princess will not be damaged by half a point. Shen Ke said with a puzzled expression.
"Really?" The prince was skeptical.
"Wechen is willing to use the head of the item to guarantee, the prince did order Wechen to do so." Shen Ke said seriously.
Emperor Beiliang looked at Shen Ke's appearance and felt that he didn't seem to be lying. But if King Pingnan hadn't changed his plan, then why would Chonghua appear in Xiao Ziming's bed? It's really puzzling.
"So, how did the princess appear in Xiao Ziming's bed, do you know?" Emperor Beiliang's eyes narrowed slightly.
When Weichen sent the princess to the room at that time, the envoys of the Great Zhou Dynasty were drinking in King Huai's room, and then they wanted to wait to see when Gongzi Zhan entered the room, but as a result, Weichen saw the drunk Xiao Ziming and went to Gongzi's room, originally wanted to bring Xiao Ziming out, but at this time, Gongzi Zhan saw that Xiao Ziming occupied his bed, so he took the burden
The rooms of the other two sons of the Zhan family. Shen Ke said word by word.
After listening to Shen Ke's story, Emperor Beiliang gradually lowered his suspicions, it turned out that all this was because Xiao Ziming slept in the wrong room, which was really unfortunate.
So, Chonghua was injured, it must be because Xiao Ziming was drunk and found a woman beside him, thinking that it was his side concubine, so he ignored it?
"That's it, that's it, you go down. This Xiao Ziming is really a bad thing, he can sleep in the wrong room. Emperor Beiliang waved his hand impatiently.
Shen Ke respectfully exited the room and let out a long breath, it was really dangerous, he almost couldn't fool the emperor of Beiliang. The place where the envoys live is only divided into palaces, who lives in which room, how can they remember so clearly, not to mention, they just need to know clearly which room several princes live in, and it is normal for other entourages not to pay attention.
Suddenly, Shen Ke heard the cry of an owl, and walked towards a remote forest in the palace......
