Xie Yutang said firmly, "No, the Nine Princes are trustworthy, believe me, it is safest to follow him, and I can rest assured." ”

"Okay, okay, I'm annoying you." Chi Wan muttered and pushed Xie Yutang.

Xie Yutang smiled lightly and glanced at Chi Wan deeply, "Then I'll go." ”

Chi Wan, who was in a hurry to drive people away just now, was reluctant at this moment, she turned around and flipped through it, found a large pile of medicines, and stuffed them to Xie Yutang, "You take these, but unfortunately I don't have anything to eat in this room, I'll go to the kitchen and get some." ”

As she spoke, she was about to leave, but before she could take a step, she was grabbed by Xie Yutang's wrist.

"No need, Wanwan."

Chi Wan frowned disapprovingly, "How can you not use it, the food in the prison is not eaten by people at all, I didn't know that you would come over, and I didn't prepare anything, but there must be leftovers in the kitchen." ”

Xie Yutang saw such a thoughtful Chi Wan for his own sake, his heart felt like he had eaten honey, but he said softly, "You go now, if you are discovered, what will you do, I have these medicines enough, don't worry, I won't treat myself badly." ”

Chi Wan stopped talking, she didn't treat herself badly, she was obviously much thinner than before.

It's a pity that no matter how reluctant the two are to each other, before dawn, Xie Yutang must also leave.

In order to prevent being discovered, Xie Yutang did not go out of the door, but jumped down from the window, Chi Wan's heart was twisted, and she hurriedly looked under the window, but only to see a figure flashing and disappearing.

Ji Wan leaned against the window alone, staring at the dark distance for a long time, until her eyes were sore, then she closed the window and returned to bed.

Strange to say, this time, she fell asleep easily.

At the same time, in the palace, in a certain side hall, a rapid coughing sound sounded, waking up the palace people who were on night duty outside.

"Lord Wang." The palace people hurriedly entered, and what they saw was the scene of the king of Chu covering his mouth and coughing heartbreakingly, and the palace people were shocked and hurriedly rushed over to pat the back of the king of Chu.

The King of Chu gasped and stopped, and his pale cheeks were stained with two blushes because of coughing.

"I'm fine."

Compared with a few months ago, his body is indeed much better, but the symptoms of coughing that hurt his heart and lungs at that time have not been relieved.

The palace people hurriedly went to the stove to get the medicine that had already been warmed, and served the king of Chu to drink it.

There are the emperor's people guarding the side hall, so the king of Chu can't take medicine openly, and only in the middle of the night when all the guards have fallen asleep, he will quietly drink a little.

This is also due to the slower recovery of the body. Fortunately, even if it is slow, you can see that the effect is significant.

"Lord Wang, you sleep, the slave will press your legs." The legs of the king of Chu are not very flexible, and in the months of the prison, he fell into the root of the disease, and when it rained, he couldn't stand the pain, and even walking was a problem.

Knowing his physical condition, the King of Chu did not refuse, half lying on the bed, his eyes slightly closed.

Just when the palace people thought he was asleep and wanted to put him on the pillow, the king of Chu suddenly opened his eyes, looked out the dark window, and asked softly, "How long will it take for this king to leave this place?" ”

It's much more comfortable here than in the prison, but it's guarded day and night, and there's no free life.

The palace man comforted, "Lord Wang, it's almost over." ”

King Chu smiled, but his smile was a little desolate.

The palace people also felt very uncomfortable when they saw it, they were obviously noble, but they were humiliated by their own brothers in every way, and they were locked up for so long, they couldn't stand it for anyone.

The king of Chu is already considered good, he has endured it for so long, and he has suffered that ordinary people have not suffered, but he is still not impatient and calm, and he is as calm as ever, with this heart alone, it is already extremely rare.

"Lord Wang, Your Majesty is about to figure it out, and he will give you freedom at that time, don't be discouraged."

Expecting the emperor to figure it out, King Chu couldn't help but be a little funny, in this life, the emperor should not figure it out.

"Go down." King Chu waved his hand.

The palace man consciously retreated, closed the door, and sighed softly.

In the room, the king of Chu took out a brown pill from under the bed, the palace man was right, he should not give up on himself, it won't be long before he can walk out of here in the open.

The emperor has been in a good mood recently, and in his opinion, the internal and external troubles have been resolved, and the court is also peaceful, which can be described as the peace of the country and the people.

The song of merit and virtue flew to the desk like a snowflake, although the emperor knew that it was just some ministers patting on the back, but who doesn't like to listen to good words.

I will start a prosperous generation! The emperor's mind was filled with this thought.

However, just when he was complacent, a rumor quietly arose in the streets and alleys of the capital, and I don't know who started to say it, in short, the general idea is almost the same.

It is rumored that the emperor only ascended to the throne after killing his father and brother, and he was essentially an extremely cruel and cold-blooded person, and he also described the emperor as a fierce and vicious appearance, which made people retreat when they saw it, in short, it was a very unpleasant image.

Almost even children know this kind of statement, whether it is on the street, in a tavern, or in a teahouse, everyone is discussing it.

The emperor didn't know about it, but some of the ministers had already smelled the unusual atmosphere and were all silent.

But there are also those who don't know how to be flexible, and they mentioned this matter directly in the court, and the emperor was in a good mood, so he asked with a pleasant face, "I have always been open-minded, and I never forbade the people to discuss, I don't know what the people of the capital have been discussing recently?" ”

Those who knew lowered their heads one after another, pretending that they didn't exist, and some pretended to be in a daze, looking at their noses and noses, looking at their hearts, and they didn't care about themselves, and hung high. Seeing this, the emperor gradually had a bad premonition in his heart, but he became more and more curious.

"Nothing to say to anyone, what is it?"

As soon as the emperor's face sank, the Jinluan Hall was silent, and after a long time, an official from the Imperial History Observatory came out and said, "Your Majesty, these are all words that are not humane to outsiders, and Your Majesty will not listen to them." ”

"Yes, there are rumors in the market that it has not tarnished His Majesty's ears."

The emperor knew that it was not a good thing, so he thought about it for a while, and pressed the idea for the time being, and after he retired from the court, he secretly asked a few henchmen to go out to investigate, and the results of the investigation surprised him.

"What?!" The emperor was furious and took the case.

The secret guard stiffened his head and said, "Back to Your Majesty, it is now circulating everywhere in the capital...... Those words are circulated, and women, children, and children all know it. ”

"How can this be true, how can it be true!" The bruises on the Emperor's forehead stirred, and he swept everything on the table to the ground, shouting, "Go and find out to me the person who first spread the rumor!" ”

The dark guard secretly said in his heart, he didn't know where this rumor came from, where to check. However, he promised on his face and did not dare to disobey.

During the time he waited for the results, the emperor was restless and paced back and forth, and anyone could see the anxiety in his heart, and even his favorite Lin Meiren did not want to see him.

Xiao Anzi accompanied the smiling face outside, "Niangniang, Your Majesty really has something to do inside, and it's not easy to see people." ”

This Lin Meiren, who has also been spoiled recently, doesn't know that the sky is high and thick, and when she heard this, she raised her eyebrows and said, "Don't see?" Your Majesty doesn't see those noisy people, can this palace compare with those people? ”

"This ......" Xiao Anzi scratched her ears and cheeks anxiously, but she still resolutely blocked in front of Lin Meiren.

"Xiao Anzi, you are not small, you dare to block this palace, and when this palace comes to Your Majesty, I have to sue you!" Lin Meiren's willow eyebrows are upside down, and she is charming when she squints. I have to say that she can come out on top in the harem of Nuoda, and her appearance is also first-class.

It's a pity that Xiao Anzi is in front of him, not to mention that the other party is a eunuch, even if he is a normal man, he doesn't dare to touch the emperor's head when he is in a bad mood.

"Niangniang, listen to me, if you have to go in, let the slave go in and report it, how about it?" When the time comes, Your Majesty won't let you in, and you will make yourself shameless.

secretly slandered in his heart, but Xiao Anzi's face was still accompanied by a smile, and he couldn't see his dissatisfaction with Lin Meiren at all.

"Then don't go yet!" Lin Meiren pushed impatiently, in her cognition, there is no emperor who will not see her, as long as Xiao Anzi goes in to tell her, the emperor will keep and meet her, Lin Meiren is very confident in this.

Seeing Lin Meiren subconsciously touching her cheeks, Xiao Anzi sneered, and moved into the imperial study, but as soon as he pushed the door open, a teacup flew over and almost smashed on his face, Xiao Anzi was so frightened that he fell to his knees with a thud, trembling and said, "Your Majesty, it's a slave." ”

It was so dangerous, I was almost disfigured.

The steaming tea on the floor tiles made Xiao Anzi afraid, you must know that in this palace, the masters also choose the palace people to look at their appearance, and the eyebrows are always easier than others, and he finally climbed to the position of the emperor's side to serve closely, if he is disfigured, he may be sent to the lowest place.

Thinking of this, Xiao Anzi couldn't help but shudder, quietly wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead, and knelt more and more respectfully.

The emperor was angry, and his angry eyes widened, "Get out!" ”

Xiao Anzi didn't dare to say a word, turned around and retreated

Lin Meiren, who was outside, naturally heard the movement inside, where did she dare to mention the matter of going in at this moment, swallowed her saliva, turned around and left. Although she doesn't have any brains, she still has a little bit of eyes, Xiao Anzi is the emperor's most powerful subordinate, the emperor usually treats him very kindly, but today he even beat him, it can be seen how angry she is, she still doesn't want to be bored.

After getting the emperor's order, the secret guard spent two days and arrested a group of people to come back, and this group of people knelt down tremblingly, crying bitterly and saying that they had also heard from others, and it was not the source of rumors.
