Chapter Forty-Six: Broken Mirror Reunion
Chapter Forty-Six: Broken Mirror Reunion
The three of them walked into the main hall of the palace.
Zhao Susu was worried about his younger brother's injury and left first, leaving only Luo Xiaotian and Bei'an Wang.
After this thrilling emergency, King Bei'an's mood did not seem to be greatly affected. He sat on the top of the main hall, his face was as usual, his majesty was undiminished, and he was really a tiger general who had gone through the battlefield and won a hundred battles, so there was no need to worry about this little wind and waves.
The two of them were silent for a long time, as if they had already tacitly understood it, and the "father-in-law" and "virtuous son-in-law" at this time were drinking tea and thinking about each other, and the atmosphere in the hall did not seem embarrassing.
Luo Xiaotian felt curious, Zhao Yuanxi was so seriously injured, but King Bei'an didn't seem to be worried at all, and he could drink tea with peace of mind. He was cranky, a little distraught. I and Zhao Susu have been separated for too long, they have just met, and they still have a lot to say to each other, so instead of sitting here and staring at each other, it is better to use this excuse to find her. So he said: "Lord Wang, Yuan Xi's injury seems to be quite serious, let's go and take a look." β
King Bei'an glanced at him, as if he saw his thoughts, and laughed: "The emperor's marriage, she has a long grudge in her heart, you better think about what to say first." Yuan Xi's injury, I have seen a lot on the battlefield, so it is better to let him taste the bitterness, so as not to cause trouble in the future. β
The tone of this speech is the same as that of the master, in the past in the Apocalypse Peak, if he did something wrong, the master would turn on the tightening spell mode, chattering, making Luo Xiaotian have a headache. He felt that something was wrong, and his relationship with the king of Bei'an had gradually become familiar from politeness unconsciously.
Later, when the palace dated Zhao Susu, should he avoid him farther away, he didn't want to become another Zhao Yuanxi, and he couldn't let the king of Bei'an become another master.
"You kid, don't think nonsense, no matter what, Su Su is also my daughter, the emperor's niece, I will never agree to let her enter your side room......"
Before he finished speaking, Luo Xiaotian interrupted awkwardly and explained helplessly: "Lord Wang, you misunderstood, how could Xiaotian live up to Su Su." I thought you could help me explain it to her. β
Luo Xiaotian was inexplicably puzzled: In the past, he treated him with great courtesy, but now, even if your identity is Zhao Susu's father. Because of this, I have a lot of scruples, but I can't talk nonsense like this.
"This king doesn't want to worry too much about those things of your young people, as far as today's situation is concerned, Lin Pingrui maliciously besieged the palace, what do you think?" King Bei'an asked.
"Lin Pingrui naturally has no king's law, and he is more than a substitute. He had no authority to investigate and handle this case, and even transferred sergeants beyond his authority without authorization, so I should supervise Dali Temple to handle it properly. Luo Xiaotian replied.
"This king wants to ask why he dares to put the blame on me."
"This matter is a long story, he was misled by some evidence, so he forced Yuan Xiqu to make a move. As for the purpose, the prince should know better than me. β
"According to what you say, he is not guilty, and he is not the mastermind behind the scenes, don't you have evidence in your hands?"
"Lord Wang, this matter has been handed over to Li Wenyi to deal with. The trial has not yet begun, so I dare not make a conclusion, and I will ask the emperor to make a decision, and it will never involve the palace. β
"You have been investigating this case for some time, and you should have some evidence in your hand, and it is not impossible to punish him."
"Since this is the case, this case is full of suspicions, and it cannot be decided immediately. Judging from the three corpses at the scene, the mastermind behind it must be in a high position. Moreover, someone returned to the scene after the incident, and one of the teeth in the mouth of the dead body was the result of human violence after death. At present, it is speculated that the letterhead written by Lin Pingrui himself may have been copied and copied by others and framed by others. β
"I don't want to know too much about the specifics of this case, but this king reminds you to stop here, so as not to burn yourself......"
King Bei'an's eyes were far-reaching, revealing anxiety. Luo Xiaotian's inner contradiction seems to have been seen through by him, his words are vague, and he is kind.
How to deal with the Dongmen bombing case, Luo Xiaotian's heart is also troubled. If, against his conscience, the result of this case is already obvious, and the mastermind behind the scenes is directly pushed to Lin Pingrui, the case will be closed.
But he believes that things are not so simple, and there are still many doubts that need to be verified, so this conclusion cannot be justified. The letterhead obtained from the autopsy of the corpse, which he knew was forged by someone and deliberately blamed itβa single point alone could not settle the case in a hasty manner.
There is one more thing that Luo Xiaotian didn't say in his heart, only he and Li Wenyi knew. The reason why there is only half of the letterhead is because the upper part has been torn off by him, and the complete plan is recorded on it, and the nickname on the letterhead is the prince!
Taken together, the clues began to be confused, who is the mastermind behind this scene?
It was this question in his heart that made him hesitate, and he didn't know how to deal with the case, and he was always conflicted in his heart.
He understood the meaning of the words of the king of Bei'an, and it was also the emperor's attitude towards the case: only one result, not one truth. It's nothing more than wanting two sons to be alone in this case.
The old fox appointed himself, an outsider with no faction, to supervise the case, precisely to protect the calf. He is happy to see his two sons fighting openly and secretly, but they are poisonous tigers and do not eat their sons.
If you go against the emperor's wishes and insist on going your own way, you will be involved in the struggle of the royal family. Not only will it destroy the balance of imperial power, but it will also be a catastrophe for itself.
While thinking about it, he had a dry mouth, picked up the hot tea on the table, and brought it to his mouth.
As soon as he drank a sip of tea, Luo Xiaotian suddenly coughed. The cold poison had already made his lips unable to feel the heat, and when the tea entered his throat, he felt that it was hot and unbearable, and he was suddenly stimulated, and he couldn't help coughing.
King Bei'an frowned, put down the teacup, and asked him what was the matter. He just waved his hand and laughed and teased - he was thirsty and the tea was too hot. His face turned sideways, but he had a painful look, his eyelids were pressed together, and his lips were purple.
This condition is obviously the residual cold ice poison in the body, and the toxicity has already attacked. The hot tea and the cold poison in the body collided with each other, forming a strong drop temperature, fiercely fighting.
The wildness of a beast of prey has been stimulated by extreme provocations.
Zhao Susu, who had already visited his younger brother, saw that his condition was not too serious, so he calmed down and returned downstairs. As soon as he entered the door, he noticed the strangeness on Luo Xiaotian's face. In a panic, he immediately reached out to touch his forehead, and before his fingers touched his skin, he was startled by the cold chill.
She was about to open her mouth to ask what the situation was, but Luo Xiaotian shook his head at her first, looked at her, and said that he couldn't let King Bei'an know.
The two of them had a good heart, Zhao Susu quickly understood what he meant, and hurriedly smiled and said to the king of Bei'an: "Daddy, my daughter has something to say to Xiaotian, I'll take him out first." β
King Bei'an pretended to look at her angrily, as if to say that a girl's family should be more reserved. Seeing that their arms were already tied together, he shook his head helplessly, and said with a wry smile: "Go, go......"
"Thank you, Daddy!" Zhao Susu smiled brightly, a flower bloomed on her face, and then her expression changed sharply, and she said to Luo Xiaotian worriedly: "Let's go!" β
As he spoke, he pulled Luo Xiaotian out of the main hall and walked towards his room.
Entered the room and closed the door. The joy on her face completely melted, her expression became panicked, she looked at Luo Xiaotian and asked, "Xiaotian, what's wrong?" β
Luo Xiaotian couldn't take his eyes off her, looking at her stupidly, stunned.
The sunlight slanting in from the window was shining on her fair face, showing a slight warm color. Long eyelashes, obscuring half of the sky, watery eyes, clear and flawless.
Zhao Susu at this moment is so beautiful that people are fascinated.
The separation for too long made Luo Xiaotian feel in a trance, and in her eyes, it seemed that she had filled her whole world, making him fall into it and unable to extricate himself.
In order not to worry her, Luo Xiaotian hid her pain, squeezed out a smile, and said softly: "It's okay, it'll be fine in a few days, it's hot weather, it's good to cool yourself down." β
Zhao Susu looked at his purple lips and said coquettishly: "Why are you still coaxing me, this joke is not funny at all!" β
"Tell me, what's wrong......" she said.
Luo Xiaotian hesitated for a moment, gave up pretending, and didn't care about the image of a man, hugged his arms, his lips trembled, his mouth hissed, and he slipped into the collapsed quilt.
All the movements were done in one go, and Zhao Susu was stunned in place. Realizing that the situation was not good, he hurriedly stepped forward to check.
Luo Xiaotian showed a pair of eyes from the quilt, covered his mouth inside, and said vaguely: "Susu, I ...... now." Is it poisonous...... performance, do you remember...... Last ...... Ginger soup? β
Zhao Susu raised his eyes and thought about it, nodded and hummed: "I was asked to bring it back last time, there are still some left, I will immediately call someone to cook it......"
Luo Xiaotian's whole body trembled, his vocal cords couldn't help shaking, and he pulled out a long voice: "Good ......"
Zhao Susu took out the ginger from the drawer and hurriedly ran out of the door.
After she left, Luo Xiaotian thought to herself: After the ugliness is over, Su Su shouldn't be scared by herself.
The world in his memory: when he cares about the other party's shortcomings, when he enters the countdown to love.
He didn't want to see that the first love was cooled by this cold poison.
In his thoughts, Zhao Susu had already come in with ginger soup. Sitting beside him, with only love in his eyes, he took small sips and blew the hot air in the bowl.
It seems that I am thinking too much.
In the quilt, Luo Xiaotian, who was slightly chilled, looked at her, her eyes were fascinated, and she couldn't help but say: "This little fairy, you are so beautiful!" β
"It's already like this, and it's still rhetorical, you don't have to put honey, anyway, your mouth is full of honey." As he spoke, Zhao Susu gently sent the cool ginger soup to his mouth.
Luo Xiaotian frowned, ready for a spicy baptism. When the tongue touches the soup, the taste is sweet. It turned out that he was tricked by her, so he pretended to have a bitter and unbearable expression.
Zhao Susu saw that he was difficult to swallow, so he tasted it suspiciously, but found that there was no spicy taste at all, and said coquettishly: "You are teasing me again!" β
Seeing that she was angry, Luo Xiaotian hurriedly put on a smiling face, raised his face, and opened his mouth: "Little fairy, feed me quickly!" β
Zhao Susu was angry and directly stuffed the bowl to his mouth, seeing that he was caught off guard. She was distressed and funny, unconsciously smiling at the corners of her mouth and crooked at the corners of her eyes.
The two of them were frolicking.
The reunion after parting made each other cherish each other more, and the feelings in their hearts seemed to be nourished by the drizzle, and the two heart flowers quietly bloomed.
