Chapter 291: House Arrest
The emperor watched the twists and turns, and after a moment of silence, he drove back to the royal cloud forest, this matter is far more dangerous than the matter of Jin Xiuchen Peng Mo falling off the cliff!
Before determining the purpose of Wuchengguo, he had to think of a suitable way to control Wei Yingran.
And as the envoy of Wucheng State, the county lord of Siyan is naturally indispensable to summon once!
Siyan was called, a little flustered, could it be that Li Ji was found out about what she was doing to Peng Mo's horse?
In the main hall, the emperor sat on a high seat with a calm face, looked directly at the people in the hall, and said, "Wei Yingran, do you know each other?"
"Wei Yingran, is he the prince of the Marquis of Chengen's Mansion?" Siyan heard the emperor's question, her heart jumped, she was busy stabilizing her mood, and asked a frank rhetorical question.
"It's him, do you know him?" the emperor's low voice, unable to hear emotion, blurred out of the empty hall.
Siyan didn't dare to take it lightly, shook her head, and said, "I don't know." β
She really didn't know Wei Yingran, she knew His Royal Highness King Rui of Wucheng Kingdom.
The emperor looked at Si Yan with an inquiring gaze for a while, and then said, "I received an interesting letter today, do you want to see it?"
Siyan frowned and looked at the letter at her feet, and there was an atmosphere in her heart, when had she ever been treated so rudely? Even the king of Wucheng was kind to her!
But... , her chest rose and fell violently, he was the monarch of Dayong and her future father-in-law, she couldn't say anything!
I picked up the letterhead with displeasure, read it at a glance, and was shocked, Wei Yingran's life experience was found out?
King Gong sent the Imperial Forest Army to guard the Cheng'en Marquis's Mansion! How is His Royal Highness King Rui in Kyoto now?
Thinking of this, he raised his eyes and looked at the emperor, I don't know how he plans to deal with this matter?
For a while, his mind was full of panic and anxiety.
The emperor smiled faintly at Shang Siyan's eyes, and said, "After reading it, do you think it's interesting?"
Siyan thought for a moment, knelt down and said: "Father is angry, the son is the fiancΓ©e of His Royal Highness the King of Jin, and the daughter-in-law will also be surnamed Jin in the future, and the affairs of this Wucheng Kingdom have nothing to do with the son when he is assigned to marry!"
No matter what, she must clear up the relationship in front of the emperor, Wei Yingran is the Rui King of Wucheng Kingdom, and he is the future candidate for the crown prince, and the emperor does not dare to treat it easily.
But she is just a county lord, although she will not be beheaded, but the marriage is very likely to be counted!
Her plan has not yet been implemented, how can it be ruined by outsiders.
The emperor smiled slightly when he heard this, but this smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes: "Since you say so, I will believe you once, don't let me know that this matter is related to you, otherwise, I will execute you according to the law of Dayong!"
Siyan lowered her head and said respectfully: "Erchen doesn't dare." β
"I saw yesterday that you only brought a maid and a guard with you on this trip, and such a guard of honor is really not what the princess should have. β
Siyan frowned and said, "What my father said is very true, but the sons and daughters have always liked to be quiet, and there are many people who feel uncomfortable. β
The emperor didn't seem to hear the refusal in Siyan's words, clapped his hands, and walked out of the cabinet with a group of people.
"These twenty guards, ten handmaidens have been specially adjusted, and they will never make you feel uncomfortable, and now what I give you, during the period before marrying into the Jin Palace, they will take care of your daily life and daily security. β
Siyan's face stiffened, and she kowtowed: "Erchen... Thank you for your grace. "That's to imprison her!
is a great mediocre country, and it has been treated like this before it was married!
Then don't blame the county lord for rewarding you!
"Let's go down. The emperor waved his hand in disgust, he was now deeply displeased with everyone in Wucheng Kingdom.
Siyan said yes, took a few steps back, and walked out of the main hall.
As soon as he walked out of the main hall, he met King Ning and King Jin walking side by side, Si Yan's eyes were red, and he called out complainingly: "His Royal Highness King Jin." β
"Tut, what's going on?" King Ning looked at Siyan who was crying with pear blossoms and rain with interest, and then looked at King Jin who was pretending to be calm.
King Jin didn't like King Ning to look at him like this, and glanced at him with a warning look.
King Ning looked at the eyes of the King of Shangjin, pursed his lips and snorted coldly, and crossed the two into the main hall.
"What's wrong with you?" Jin Rui looked at Siyan at this time, frowning slightly, with a calm expression.
"Yes.... Before Si Yan could speak, the imperial maid behind her coughed lightly, Si Yan understood, it seems that the emperor is planning to deal with it quietly!
Since he wanted to clear up the relationship, he couldn't be caught, so he immediately stopped his mouth, dipped the tears in the corners of his eyes, lowered his head and whispered: "It's Siyan who is wrong, and I made my father angry." β
King Jin looked at the maid behind Siyan suspiciously, his brows furrowed deeper, and admonished: "My father is a great king, you should be in awe and respect, how can you provoke him for no reason? This is unfilial piety!"
"Yes, Siyan knows her mistake. Even though he hated it in his heart, the obedience on his face came from the heart, and there was no trace of emotion other than guilt.
Siyan's obedient attitude greatly satisfied Jin Rui's inferiority complex, nodded with satisfaction, and said arrogantly: "You step aside, where is my father, I will say a few good words for you." "It's his fiancΓ©e after all, and he doesn't want to ignore it.
"Your Highness. Siyan scoffed at this sentence, but her face was very respectful, curtsied her knees, gave way sideways, and waited for Jin Rui to walk into the hall before she left.
I went all the way back to the premises, looked at the few maids who were not leaving, sneered silently, walked to the desk, picked up the brush, and began to practice calligraphy.
Several maids were not familiar with Siyan's daily routine, and when they saw her practicing calligraphy, they stepped forward to grind.
Siyan frowned and said, "Stand down, this county lord likes to grind by himself." β
The maid said yes, took a step back, bowed her head and stood to one side, as if it did not exist.
The dragon flew and the phoenix danced for two quarters of an hour, until it made a mess on the table!
He brushed his pen, rubbed his temples, and said sullenly: "I have a headache, you go and call the guards of the county lord solemnly." β
The maid pondered for a moment and said, "The county lord has a headache, why don't you go to the imperial doctor to treat you?"
Siyan glanced at her and said, "This is an old disease, you don't need to be re-diagnosed, you just need to call someone, he has medicine in his hand." β
Hearing Siyan's deep tone, the maids glanced at each other, left one person to ask for solemnity, and the people who stayed continued to "take care" with all their hearts.
Siyan was holding a cup of tea, her lips were pursed, and her eyes were well understood.
Although she didn't know how Wei Yingran's matter could suddenly be found out, she thought that this matter must have nothing to do with Peng Mo!
This is a big problem... Fortunately, she fell off a cliff today!
It's just that Wei Yingran can detect King Gong's surveillance, and can he escape this catastrophe?
Now that she is imprisoned, how can she send the news back to Wuchengguo?
If the emperor of Dayong really wants to deal with Wei Yingran, will she terminate the plan and take the lead in rescuing him?
But what about her plan? It will benefit the people of Wucheng!
The peace between Dayong and Wucheng has lasted for decades, and this Dayong Emperor does not seem to be a main battle, maybe there is a turnaround in this matter, it is better to wait and see what happens!
Siyan slammed the table angrily, such a headache was all due to Peng Mo.
The anger in her heart couldn't be stopped, even if Peng Mo fell off the cliff today, it would be difficult to eliminate the hatred in her heart!
A pair of hands clenched the cup tightly, and the joints of the bones were white.
Looking at the maid's gaze, she realized that she had just lost her temper, and reprimanded: "This tea is cold, you still dare to serve it to me?"
The maid hurriedly collected the tea and went to make a new one.
As soon as Siyan took the tea, Yan Zheng walked in, bowed and saluted, handed out a palm-sized white porcelain medicine bottle, and said, "County Lord, your medicine." β
Immediately, a maid took the medicine bottle and handed it to Siyan.
Siyan glanced at the maid, and said angrily: "This county mainly takes medicine, why don't you bring water?"
The maid looked at the teacup in Siyan's hand and said, "The county lord is in his hand..." β
Si Yan interrupted her words and feigned anger: "This county lord is tea in his hand, and this medicine cannot be mixed with tea!"
The maid hurriedly confessed: "The slave and maid will go and prepare water." β
Siyan felt a little more comfortable at this time, played with the medicine bottle in her hand, and asked casually, "Is Li Ji awake?"
All the watchful maids listened with pricked ears.
"Back to the county lord, Miss Li Ji is still asleep. Yan Zheng said and raised his eyes to look at Siyan, and saw that the corners of Siyan's mouth were slightly raised, and said slowly: "She's been a little tired lately, just let her sleep more." When she said "sleep more", she deliberately accentuated her tone.
solemnly understood, lowered his head and said: "My subordinates understand, and they will definitely not disturb Miss Li Ji to rest." β
Siyan nodded, opened the medicine bottle, poured out two pills, closed the medicine bottle again, handed it back to Yan Zheng, and said, "You go down." β
A maid immediately stepped forward and said: "The county lord's medicine is better kept by the slave maid, first, to facilitate the next use, and second, this county lord's boudoir is really inconvenient for men to enter and exit." β
The emperor has ordered, don't let Siyan have too much contact with people in the outside world, this guard is a confidant to Siyan, and to them is the "outsider" in the emperor's mouth!
Siyan glanced at the maid coldly, got up and came to her, looked at her face and smiled: "You mean, you will keep the life-saving medicine of the county lord?" said and smiled, took the medicine bottle in Yan Zheng's hand, handed it to the maid, and said: "Since this is the case, it is up to you to keep it, but since you have kept it, you must take good care of it, if the county lord has any accidents when eating it, you will bear the consequences!"
As soon as these words came out, who would dare to take them? The little maid turned white with fright, took a step back cowardly, and said: "This medicine is important, the slave and maid are small and weak, and it is best to keep it by the county lord's guards." β
Siyan snorted coldly, was about to hand it to Yan Zheng, and waved him away.
Yan Zheng walked out of Siyan's courtyard, all the way to a secluded place, opened the medicine bottle, and took out the small note inside.
Lord Siyan has always had no head disease, and when he heard the words of this strange maid, he became suspicious in his heart, and took a bottle of hawthorn pills to return to his life.
After quickly reading the contents of the note, pondering for a moment, he threw the note in his mouth, chewed it and swallowed it, and before leaving, he went to Liji's room and fed her enough hypnotic powder to sleep for three days.
