Chapter Ninety-Six: Forced to Enter the Palace to See the Faint King
"Auntie, what's the matter?"
I can't help but ask, it's too unreasonable.
"This old slave doesn't know, but the young lady will know when she goes."
Zhao Gonggong kept his head down, his attitude was respectful, and his voice was always in a tone, but he really couldn't detect anything.
"Wait here for me, I'll be back soon!"
He pursed his lips helplessly, and said softly.
"This king is with you!"
Ye Xuange was as confused as she was, and held her wrist worriedly.
"I'll go too!"
Then Ye Xiaotian also clenched the folding fan, and a merry smile returned to his face.
"No, the lady only called the young lady to go alone, and the prince and the fifth prince should wait."
Hearing this, Gonggong Zhao bowed down again and stopped the two of them from thinking.
"Alright! Don't worry, I'll be fine, my aunt must be missing me, I haven't seen my aunt for a long time, I'll go back to Ha! Be good at home. ”
After speaking, he walked out of the door and got into the sedan chair directly.
Then Zhao Gonggong shouted in a strange tone.
"Spoiled!"
Qiqi lifted the curtain and took a look, and several husbands were standing at the door, watching her leave.
The faces of several people were full of worry, and her heart tightened, how could she feel a sense of life and death?
"Wait for me at home, be obedient!"
Then he shook his head, throwing away the distracting thoughts in his heart, but the uneasiness in his heart became stronger and stronger.
Wandering all the way, she didn't know where it was, she hadn't been to the palace a few times since she was a child.
Strictly speaking, it's just one time, and the rest is when the original owner was a child, when he was only five or six years old, and his memory was really vague.
finally stopped, and Qiqi also breathed a sigh of relief, her head really hurt.
"Miss, Niangniang is waiting for you inside, you can enter!"
Zhao's father-in-law's voice came from outside, Qiqi's heart moved, and he immediately got out of the car.
Looking around, there are all palace walls and bricks, only a large hall with a closed gate in front of it, which says Wanning Palace.
glanced at Gonggong Zhao, and his doubts were even worse, but he had already arrived, so he could only bite the bullet, push open the door of the main hall, and walk in.
The hall was a little dim, and there was some discomfort for a while.
Before she could react, there was a heavy closing of the door behind her.
"Hey... Feed...... it, open the door, what does that mean? ”
However, no one answered, and after a moment's beating, there was still silence outside, apparently the person had left.
"Damn Father-in-law Zhao, dare to lie to me, wait for the old lady to go out and kick you to death!"
muttered hatefully, and then looked around the dimly lit hall.
The furnishings are very solemn, to the point that it looks like a study.
As she slowly walked into the depths, a faint breathing sound came from the right, which frightened her and made her feel her hair standing upside down.
"Who...... Who is it? ”
I couldn't help but swallow my saliva and shouted boldly. Isn't there a ghost in the heart? At this time, a gust of wind blew in the hall, and the tent man floated, and there seemed to be a figure faintly flickering.
"I'm telling you, I'm the princess, my lord is amazing, oh yes, the fifth prince is also my husband, I... I don't shoot you..."
There was a lot of nonsense on her lips, but in fact, she was extremely scared in her heart, and cold sweat broke out between her foreheads.
The sky is not afraid, the earth is not afraid, except for her father and ghosts!
I saw the figure behind the curtain move slightly, and then there was a slight sigh.
The sound was like blowing in her ears, and another wind blew, so frightened that she suddenly couldn't stand on her legs.
"Mom...... Help... There's a ghost...... Woo..."
With a cry of terror, she turned and ran, banging again on the closed door, no matter how much she screamed, to no avail.
After a while, she shrank in the corner, looked into the depths, there was nothing, and after a long time, there was still nothing, and she was unwilling to be curious again, endured fear, and walked back.
Looking at the faint humanoid silhouette behind the veil, he closed his eyes and slowly lifted his hands tremblingly.
"Ahem...... Hmmm"
An old cough sounded, and her eyes slowly opened a slit.
Then he opened his eyes widely, and then gasped heavily.
"I said... Your Majesty, do you know that people can be scared to death? How squeaky are you? ”
I saw Ye Xuanjing, who was dressed in a dark black dress, and sat quietly leaning on the head of the bed, covering his chest with his hands, and constantly gasping hard.
Hearing her say this, he gradually raised his head and looked at her.
This time Qiqi was even more surprised, the night Xuanjing, which was originally as big as her father, looked like an old man in his twilight years at the moment, his face was covered with folds that belonged to the old age of the wind and candles, his eyes were dull, and his breath was weak, obviously the end was coming.
"You...... Why are you so old? ”
I can't believe that it has been less than a year, and he has suddenly changed from a vigorous and unangry emperor to a withered old man, which is also outrageous.
Hearing this, Ye Xuanjing gradually lowered his eyes and took a deep breath weakly.
"You are indeed different..."
His voice was like yellow wax, dry and uncomfortable.
"Huh?"
She didn't understand what he meant, and when she saw his uncomfortable appearance, she didn't think so much, and sat directly next to him to help him calm down.
"You don't blame me?"
There was a question in the air.
"Oh, weird! When I knew that you were going to kill me, I wanted to tear down your palace, but Ye Xuange said that you were for the crown prince. Although I'm quite wronged, I can understand it, anyway, I kidnapped your brother and your son, so let's settle it! ”
Qiqi's tone was a little resentful, but in the end, he was still a little proud.
At that time, she hated him very much, but now that she sees him like this, she is indifferent to any hatred and resentment. Ye Xuange is right, why bother with a dying person? What's the use of calculating it?
Hearing this, a touch of appreciation appeared in Ye Xuanjing's eyes, and he kept looking at her silently.
Being watched by his ** naked gaze, she looked away a little embarrassed.
"Is there something you called me in the name of my aunt?"
"If I had been younger, I would have made the same choice as them, but unfortunately I didn't have that blessing..."
Ye Xuanjing muttered slightly, with a touch of regret in his eyes.
If he hadn't been greedy and took over this position, I'm afraid it would be Ye Xuange who is sitting here today!
Pity... His brother is more far-sighted than he is.
Now he is beautiful in his arms and has no quarrel with the world.
But he dedicated his entire youth to Yeyang and the people, and finally ended up like this...
"Huh?"
What is he talking about? Why didn't she understand? But looking at his angry appearance, it's really a little pitiful.
"I said... If I choose once, I'll kill you! ”
This time, he was not saying inexplicable words, but directly with the intention of killing.
"I'm sorry, don't say you can't kill me, even if you can, it's not right for you to do this, and I didn't kill the prince, why don't you rely on me? Indiscriminate faint king! ”
"You...... Uh-huh..."
Ye Xuanjing's eyes widened in anger, and then there was a dull pain in his chest, and his hand couldn't help but touch the position of his heart again.
This bold girl actually dares to say that he is a faint king...... Faint ...... Since he ascended the throne for many years, he has never heard this word, and he can't imagine that he will be said by a little girl, if he is not dying, he has to let her know what is called misfortune.
"Hey, hey, okay, look at what makes you angry, you're old, don't get angry at every turn, I'm telling the truth!"
Seeing that he was trembling with excitement, Qiqi hurriedly patted his back again and comforted him softly.
"I have something to hand over to you for safekeeping!"
It's really too lazy to worry about this disorganized little girl, there is no courtesy of a monarch and a minister, if he cares about it, he is afraid that he will be angry to death immediately, Ran Yi, the daughter born to the old fox, is really not ordinary.
"What's that? Are you going to give me money? Hey, hey, that's embarrassing. ”
Hearing this, Ye Xuanjing was stunned, his hands were even more shaky, and he didn't pay attention to her, but took out a scroll tied by a rope from under the pillow and handed it directly to her.
"This thing is extremely valuable, give it to your father, don't take it out until you have to, you must remember, cough... You must remember! ”
Ye Xuanjing, who was already at the end of the crossbow, gasped for breath, and there was a thick dead air all over his body.
"Uh... What is it? ”
What was so solemn, I thought it was money, but it turned out to be a broken scroll, which made her happy in vain.
"Don't ask so much, it's not good for you, anyway, remember what I said, your father knows what to do."
Seeing her indifferent appearance, Ye Xuanjing couldn't help but ask again.
"Oh... Got it! ”
Looking at it with the scroll, I didn't see anything famous, but the old emperor was so nervous, thinking that this thing must not be an ordinary thing, could it be...
"Isn't it an edict?"
As soon as this thought came to my mind, I asked it without thinking.
"Shut up!"
I saw that Ye Xuanjing was taken aback, scolded angrily, and glared at her angrily.
Asthma is more severe, breathing is getting weaker and weaker.
"I know what to do, how are you? Don't get excited, don't get excited..."
However, Ye Xuanjing, who was struggling in pain, just shook his head weakly, and his eyes were full of ashes.
And outside the window where no one noticed, a palace maid lurked in the dark, her eyes flashed a glimmer of light, and she quietly left.
"Shadow Guard, escort her to Huajin Palace, don't lose anything, go quickly!"
The defeated Ye Xuanjing snorted in pain, and then shouted.
"Yes."
I saw a tall man walk out of the shadows, with a deep chill on his face.
With a big hand, she took her out of the Wanning Palace.
Immediately a few ups and downs, they arrived at the door of Huajin Palace.
"Miss went in, Miss just came to see Concubine Hua today, and she didn't see anyone else, and her subordinates will secretly protect you until you leave the palace."
After saying that, she dodged and disappeared, without giving her any chance to reply.
