Chapter 323: The Battle of the Court

So far, at least, Ji Wan hasn't seen what he's going to do.

Xie Yutang glanced at Chi Wan deeply, his lips moved, and he spat out a sentence for a long time, "Wanwan, that's the emperor." ”

The implication is that the emperor made a decision that he could not resist.

Hearing this, Chi Wan was angry, sat up suddenly, looked directly at Xie Yutang, her eyes were sharp, and she said word by word, "Xie Yutang, what do you mean?" ”

Xie Yutang just looked at her and sighed faintly, "Wanwan, the king of Chu has been arrested, even if he goes out, all the people outside have already joined the prince, what can we do." ”

"So you're waiting to die?" Chi Wan asked in disbelief, wondering if the person in front of her was Xie Yutang, with her understanding of Xie Yutang, he would never say such a thing.

But Xie Yutang disappointed her, she heard him say, "Wanwan, as long as I am with you, no matter where I am, I am willing." ”

Ji Wan shook her head as if she didn't know him, and after a while, she closed her eyes and shrank in the corner, as if she had been completely disappointed and no longer communicated with Xie Yutang.

Xie Yutang was anxious, but he couldn't say anything, so he could only block the wind as much as possible.

Chi Wan was groggy, I don't know how long she slept, her consciousness recovered a little, but her throat was dry and hoarse, she coughed softly, and immediately something cold was against her lips, only to hear a voice in her ear, "Drink some water." ”

Ji Wan subconsciously opened her mouth.

The cold and odorless water slid down her throat, quenching Chi Wan's thirst, she sighed contentedly, opened her eyes, and found herself lying in Xie Yutang's arms.

Thinking of the dispute before going to bed, Chi Wan was a little uncomfortable and climbed out of Xie Yutang's arms, but the latter used some strength to firmly confine her in his arms.

"Let go." Ji Wan frowned unhappily.

Xie Yutang pursed his lips and whispered reassuringly, "I'm sorry, I'm hungry, eat something." As he spoke, he brought the bowl on the floor.

Ji Wan twisted her head and didn't look at it, nor did she talk to Xie Yutang.

"Still angry with me? I'm sorry, I apologize, how are you going to be angry? Xie Yutang didn't have any temper, and coaxed the other party softly.

Chi Wan felt that he was weak-hearted and a little uncomfortable, but seeing Xie Yutang like this, he couldn't continue to be awkward, so he got up, and his eyes touched the bowl in Xie Yutang's hand, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised.

There was meat in the bowl, and the rice was white and soft, and it was very fragrant when she looked at it, and she hadn't seen such a good meal for several days, and her stomach, which had not been full for many days, began to protest. Chi Wan swallowed her saliva, and felt that she was not angry, but at this time, nothing could compare to the attraction of the food in the bowl.

"Where did the food come from?" Ji Wan was silent for a moment, but still asked.

"The jailer gave it, don't you want to drink porridge, come, eat it while it's hot."

Chi Wancai didn't believe that the jailer would be so kind, so she was suspicious, so she refused to open her mouth, Xie Yutang had to explain to her, "After you fell asleep, I was a little worried, so I begged the jailer, the middle-aged jailer, he had a good heart, and gave me some of his own food." ”

The jailer can add his own food, and it is understandable that he eats better. But to Chi Wan's surprise, the middle-aged jailer was willing to give them food.

"What did you tell him?"

Xie Yutang smiled gently, "Just said that if you have the opportunity to go out, you will repay him and so on, he probably believes it." After a pause, he added, "He said that he used to admire me and wanted his son to go to the barracks." ”

Chi Wan knew that Xie Yutang was a general admired by everyone in the capital before, and it was reasonable for the jailer to say this. At the moment, he relieved his heart and took the bowl in Xie Yutang's hand.

Seeing that she was finally willing to eat, Xie Yutang was also very happy, and his eyebrows were much gentler, "Eat slowly, don't choke." ”

Chi Wan took a few bites of rice, looked up and asked, "Have you eaten?" ”

"I've eaten it."

Chi Wan thought of the previous meals comparable to pig food, and felt a little uncomfortable, handed the chopsticks to Xie Yutang, her cheeks flushed, "How can it work if you eat so much, eat with me, there are a lot of meals, and I can't finish it." ”

"I'll talk about it when you're full." Xie Yutang pushed his job back without thinking.

Chi Wan was originally in a sad mood, but because of Xie Yutang's words, she had a moment of comfort.

When Chi Wan was eating, Xie Yutang sat cross-legged next to her and looked at her, his eyes were gentle, even if he was in a dirty prison, it would not affect his temperament at all, and he was so good-looking that people couldn't take their eyes off it.

Halfway through eating, Chi Wan suddenly felt that something was wrong, she stopped her chopsticks and looked at Xie Yutang thoughtfully.

The latter noticed that something was wrong with Chi Wan for the first time, and smiled gently, "What's wrong, it's not delicious, or it's unappetizing?" If you have the opportunity to go out, I will ask someone to get you whatever you want to eat. ”

"Why do you think we still have a chance to get out?"

Xie Yutang said with a calm expression, "I hope we can go out." ”

The more Chi Wan thought about it, the more wrong it became, she carefully checked it, since they were caught in prison, Xie Yutang has been calm and excessive, this is really not like him, General Xie has never been a person who sits still.

There must be a demon in the abnormal, Chi Wan firmly believes in this sentence.

After having a rough guess in her heart, Chi Wan raised her eyes and looked at Xie Yutang seriously again.

At this moment, Xie Yutang leaned against the wall, his eyes closed, and his handsome face sparkled like a pearl. The two long legs bent casually, looking a little aggrieved, but in fact, the posture was very casual, and the brows were also very stretched.

He really didn't bother with these things at all.

Once Ji Wan was suspicious, she always felt like she was holding something, which was very uncomfortable. She reached out and poked Xie Yutang, and when the latter opened his eyes and looked at him gently, Chi Wan was stuck.

Xie Yutang didn't rush her, just waited patiently.

"Xie Yutang, do you have any arrangements?" Chi Wan lowered her voice and asked Xie Yutang like a thief.

Seeing her like this, Xie Yutang couldn't help but chuckle, raised his hand and touched her head, "What do you think, we'll be fine." ”

These words lifted Chi Wan's spirits, rubbed to Xie Yutang's side, looked at him with blazing eyes, and Xie Yutang, who was watching, moved uncomfortably, straightened up and hugged Chi Wan into his arms and patted him, "Don't think about it, take a rest." ”

Chi Wan broke away from his embrace and said unrelentingly, "You tell me first, do you have any tricks." ”

Xie Yutang looked at Chi Wan like this, and sighed helplessly, but he didn't want to deceive her, so he had to reach out to cover her eyes, and said coaxingly, "Good, don't ask, I won't let you have anything." ”

Sure enough, he had other arrangements. But why don't you want to tell yourself, Ji Wan has a lot of thoughts in her heart, and uneasy emotions fill her heart.

Time has been moving forward, but time seems to have frozen in the prison, and it is impossible to distinguish the sun and the moon. In such an atmosphere, Ji Wan's heart became more and more nervous.

"Wanwan?" Xie Yutang took a nap and woke up to find Chi Wan sitting sullenly towards the prison door, looking a little lonely.

This kind of Chi Wan made Xie Yutang's heart tremble, walked over and took the person into his arms, and asked softly, "What's wrong?" ”

"Xie Yutang, I'm a little scared." Ji Wan leaned into his arms.

Xie Yutang patted her back gently, as if to comfort the child, "Don't be afraid, I'm here, don't be afraid." ”

Ji Wan felt his heartbeat, and her expression was still wilting.

Xie Yutang couldn't see her like this, and after hesitating for a moment, he spoke, "Wanwan, do you believe me?" ”

"Of course I believe you." Ji Wan replied without the slightest hesitation.

The two of them went all the way, Xie Yutang saw her heart clearly, Chi Wan never wanted to doubt Xie Yutang, she could not trust anyone, but she would never distrust Xie Yutang.

Hearing this, Xie Yutang curled the corners of his mouth, "Well, you remember, we will definitely be fine." ”

Chi Wan frowned in annoyance when she saw that he still refused to say anything, but she also knew that Xie Yutang's mouth was very tight, if he didn't want to say it, then no matter what, there was no way to make him speak.

After figuring it out, Chi Wan was not so unacceptable, and after glancing at the other party resentfully, she suppressed the anxiety in her heart.

On the other hand, the emperor had a nightmare, and the whole person's complexion was terrible, he didn't want to go to the court, but when he thought of the border affairs, he could only hold the court meeting with his uncomfortable body.

On the Jinluan Palace, the ministers discussed a lot, some advocated peace, because the imperial court had just gone through civil strife, and it had no strength to fight against foreign enemies, and some advocated sending troops to attack, the reason was that the Celestial Empire was majestic and could not be provoked, noisy and noisy, and there was no result.

The emperor was in a bad mood, his face was gloomy all the time, and he didn't say anything for a long time. In the end, he directly announced his retreat from the court, and left angrily, leaving a group of ministers looking at each other.

"What does Your Majesty mean by this, is it a proposal that is not satisfied with us?"

"Lord Wang, you are still eating the food of the court, leading the court to the court, there are enemies to attack, but you only think of peace, do you know how much loss our dynasty will have once peace is negotiated?!"

"It turned out to be Zhao Shangshu of the Ministry of War, you advocated going to war, but Your Majesty has just ascended the throne, where do you have the money to go to war?"

There was a beginning, and the ministers quarreled again.

After hearing that the emperor shook his face directly on the Jinluan Palace, a touch of thoughtfulness flashed in his eyes. The neighboring country took advantage of the fire to rob at this time, which really made the emperor very embarrassed, and he obviously did not want to negotiate peace, after all, once the peace was proposed, the other party would definitely open his mouth. But if the troops are dispatched, the person leading the troops will have to study them carefully.

Looking at the entire court, the only one who can take it is Xie Yutang.

The Nine Princes were worried that they didn't know how to rescue people, but they didn't expect such a thing to happen, maybe they could follow this trend and let the King of Chu and them get out of prison.
