When Emperor Xuanhe was young, he was ruthless, suspicious and suspicious. After sitting on the dragon chair, a group of vassal kings died of illness and unexpectedly accidents, and in the end, there was only one sick vassal king left.

It was his son's turn, but Emperor Xuanhe hoped that his sons would be harmonious and friendly.

Human nature is so complex and selfish.

Sure enough, after Emperor Xuanhe heard the six princes intercede for the second prince, a trace of satisfaction flashed in his eyes. But he said coldly: "You don't have to intercede for him, I will never spare him easily!" ”

The thoughts of the six princes were unprecedentedly clear, and they continued to intercede for the second prince. It wasn't until Emperor Xuanhe completely sank his face that he "had to" stop his mouth temporarily.

Gonggong Zhao stepped in and reported in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Captain Pei will return to the palace to resume his life." ”

Emperor Xuanhe nodded: "Captain Xuanpei is here!" ”

A moment later, Pei Zhang stepped in.

When the sixth prince saw it, he was stunned and blurted out: "Captain Pei, why is your left face so swollen?" ”

No matter how handsome his face is, he can't be handsome if he is beaten like this. It's even a little funny to watch.

Emperor Xuanhe swept his eyes and frowned: "What's going on?" ”

Pei Zhang went to the Second Prince's Mansion on an errand by holy order. Who is so bold that he dares to do it to Pei Zhang!

Pei Zhang had such a face, he couldn't hide it if he wanted to, and replied truthfully: "It's the hand of the last general's father!" ”

A hint of coolness flashed in Emperor Xuanhe's eyes, and he snorted lightly.

The sixth prince said with a tense face: "Captain Pei is on an errand by order, and the Marquis of Yong'an is so bold that he actually made a move on Captain Pei!" And hit in the face! It seems that Yong'an Hou is dissatisfied with his father and resentful! ”

It can be big or small. To put it mildly, it is said that Lao Tzu slapped his son, and the beating was in vain. To put it mildly, it is that Yong'an Hou is resentful and disrespectful to the Son of Heaven.

Who would have thought that these words would come from the mouth of the six princes, who have always been gentle and generous.

Pei Zhang was shocked, glanced at the six princes with a complicated expression, and opened his mouth to intercede for Yong'an Hou: "My father didn't know the inside story, he had a misunderstanding with the last general, and he moved in anger, and he had no disrespect for the emperor." Please also ask the emperor and his highness to take a look! ”

"The Son does not say what the Father does." The sixth prince opened his mouth again unexpectedly: "Captain Pei was beaten, and he also defended the Marquis of Yong'an, this filial piety is moving." ”

"Still, one yard to one yard. The Marquis of Yong'an did it to Pei Xiaowei who passed the decree without authorization, which was disrespectful to his father. If the father does not punish the crime, how can the majesty of the Son of Heaven exist? What if everyone follows suit? ”

Pei Zhang: "......"

The six princes were reasonable, Pei Zhang was speechless, so he had to kneel down and confess for the Marquis of Yong'an: "The last general will act as my father and confess to the emperor." Please punish the emperor! ”

Emperor Xuanhe has been quite dissatisfied with Yong'an Hou recently, and the "good thing" done by the second prince was naturally blamed on Yong'an Hou.

Even if Yong'an Hou doesn't do anything, Emperor Xuanhe has to find fault.

What's more, at the moment, ready-made handles and reasons have been delivered to the eyes.

Emperor Xuanhe said in a deep voice: "Come here, spread my will to go to the Yong'an Hou Mansion." Yong'an Hou misbehaved and disrespected me. He was ordered to write a plea and fined him half a year's penalty. ”

This punishment is not light.

Of course, Yong'an Hou doesn't care about anything, what he cares about is the grace and face of the Son of Heaven. With this punishment, Yong'an Hou's face was thrown to the ground.

Emperor Xuanhe's gaze swept over Pei Zhang's face, and said, "I will allow you to take a five-day holiday, go back to the house to rest for a few days, and then enter the palace on an errand." ”

Walking in the palace with such a face is indeed inappropriate.

Pei Zhang thanked him for receiving the order, and when he looked up, he happened to meet the eyes of the six princes. The two glanced at each other, sighing in their hearts.

The sixth prince thought silently in his heart, Pei Zhang really had a deep affection for Cousin Rong. For the sake of his cousin's safety, he betrayed the second emperor brother and angered Yong'an Hou.

Pei Zhang thought silently in his heart, the six princes served by Emperor Xuanhe's side every day, and under the influence of his ears and eyes, the growth speed of the six princes was really amazing.

……

Pei Zhang withdrew from the Baohe Palace.

At this time, it was already afternoon, the sun was shining, and the spring was just right.

The jade floor outside the Bohol Hall glowed. Cheng Jinrong stood in the brightest halo, his dark eyes flashing with complicated emotions.

Pei Zhang's heart was sour.

In the past two years, Cheng Jinrong and him have been strangers. I met occasionally, but I never looked at him squarely. Waiting like this has always been because of congratulatory prayers.

She waited for him deliberately, it was the first time.

Pei Zhang calmed down, stepped forward, and said in a low voice: "The Second Prince's Mansion has been sealed, and my father has also been fined half a year, and I want to write an excerpt for the guilt." Don't worry, no one will dare to touch you in the future. ”

Cheng Jinrong was silent.

What Pei Zhang did for her made her unable to say that fluttering thank you.

"You don't have to thank me." Pei Zhang's voice was lowered, and only she could hear it close at hand: "Cousin Rong, what the Pei family owes the queen mother, owes you, and can't pay it off in this life." ”

"I'm not doing it all for you. It is also to show kindness, so that Niangniang and you accept a favor that I have to repay. One day, maybe it will save my own life. So, you don't have to be grateful to me. ”

Cheng Jinrong: "......"

The affection between them has long been a thing of the past.

He didn't mention the past, only said utilitarian favors, because he didn't want her to be embarrassed.

Cheng Jinrong's mood became more complicated, she raised her eyes and looked at Pei Zhang: "No matter what, I have to thank you." If it is true as you say, you can only open your mouth if you can use this favor in the future. ”

Pei Zhang stretched his brows and laughed: "Okay! ”

The left side of his face was red and swollen, and his smile was devoid of grace, and it looked a little funny.

Cheng Jinrong took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve and sent it to Pei Zhang: "You take this bottle of wound medicine back and apply it once a day in the morning and evening." In three days at most, your face will be restored to its original state. ”

Pei Zhang took the porcelain bottle, held the small bottle in his palm, and felt a slight emotion: "Thank you." ”

Cheng Jinrong glanced at him and said lightly: "This is the wound medicine prepared by Lord Tidian himself." If you want to thank you, thank you for mentioning it in the future. ”

Pei Zhang: "......"

Pei Zhang twitched the corner of his mouth, accidentally involved the left side of his face, and there was a tingling pain: "I'm going out of the palace and going home." ”

Cheng Jinrong nodded slightly, stood in place, and watched Pei Zhang walk out for a while before turning around and leaving.

Pei Zhang stopped at this time, looked at Cheng Jinrong's figure from afar, and felt a familiar sour helplessness in his heart.

She's not completely ruthless to him, right? It's just that there is a deep hatred between them, and there is no possibility of joining hands to be husband and wife.

So, so be it!

She survived well in the palace and accompanied her mother and brother.

He watched her from afar, guarding her.
