Chapter 127: Pay the Price
Lord Shang Shu was afraid of things, and he never thought that just because he offended a woman, he would bury all his future prospects.
If he had known, he would never have allowed his daughter to do such an impulsive thing.
Taixing Building, Luo Xuanze sat by the window and drank tea leisurely, opposite him, Lord Shangshu seemed to be ten years old, with exhaustion and weakness between his eyebrows and eyes, and even his hair was a little more pale?
"Lord, I know that the little girl has offended you, but you are really willing to offend the entire Shangshu Mansion because of one woman, and you are not afraid to tell the prince that although the status of this official in the court is not high, there are many who only make friends, and if the prince really makes a move on me, he will be the enemy of all my friends." Lord Shang Shu said sharply, the whole person has lost the cowardice and humility of before.
Luo Xuanze still had a faint smile on his face, one hand was lightly clasped on the table, and a pair of eyes as cold as an abyss made people dare not look directly.
Such a powerful aura can only be possessed by those in high ranks.
If it weren't for the point of necessity, he would definitely not be the enemy of this man.
"Lord Shangshu, is this a threat to this king?" Luo Xuanze's long hands, picked up the teacup and put it to his lips, took a sip lightly and said lightly, there was no emotion in his voice.
Lord Shang Shu really couldn't figure out his thoughts, but things had developed to this point, and he had no way out.
What's more, he didn't believe that Luo Xuanze would be the enemy of the entire court because of one woman.
"The lower officials don't dare, they're just telling the prince the truth."
Lord Shangshu tilted his head and said confidently.
However, he underestimated Luo Xuanze's strength and also underestimated his means.
"This king also wants to say something to Lord Shangshu, I don't know if adults are interested in listening to it." After Luo Xuanze finished speaking, Nanxi next to him put a secret letter on the table.
I don't know why, looking at the secret letter on the table, Lord Shangshu felt uneasy in his heart.
Luo Xuanze stretched out his hand and patted the secret letter gently, and said calmly, "I heard that you first took up the position of Shangshu, and a lot of interesting things have happened during this time, and this king is really impressed by you." ”
Lord Shangshu's face changed suddenly, and a little fear and fear flashed in his eyes.
Some things did happen before, but these things had already been ruined by him, and he didn't even have a criminal record, how could he know about these things?
"The prince is slandering me, this official is honest, he has never been corrupt or bribed, and there is no illegal or criminal matter, the prince does not have to act with me here."
The man snapped, and the whole person was like a fried rooster.
Luo Xuanze's gaze suddenly tightened when he looked at him, and his face instantly became cold, and even the aura around him dropped sharply.
"Lord Shangshu still seems to be too ignorant of this king, and this king never does things that he is not sure of." Luo Xuanze opened the secret letter, and when he saw the handwriting on it, Lord Shangshu's whole face turned green.
After being silent for a long time, he suddenly knelt directly on the ground with his legs weak.
"It's all my fault, and I ask the prince to be gracious?"
is worthy of Lord Shangshu, the speed of this face change is extremely fast, which makes people smack.
If the above things are made public, not only will his official be gone, but it will be a great crime to destroy the nine clans, and I am afraid that the entire Shangshu Mansion will be implicated.
"Master Shangshu gave birth to a good daughter, but this king has always disliked people who touch me."
After being silent for a long time, Master Shangshu took a deep breath.
He understood what Luo Xuanze meant, but his daughter was still young, and he had been taking care of her like a treasure.
"Lord, I just ask that the prince can spare the little girl's life, and in the future, the villain will definitely go to the soup and go to the fire, and he will not give up." So that he is no longer a high-ranking Shangshu lord, but an old man who prays for his daughter's life.
"Give you a day, I want her to go to the palace in person to plead guilty."
After hearing this, Lord Shangshu nodded again and again, "The villain will go now, and he will let that dead girl come to the door to apologize in person." ”
Lin Xiaojiu fell asleep for three days in a row, and woke up in a daze and felt a dry mouth.
Just as he wanted to speak, he felt a cool stream of water run through his throat, making his dry throat much more comfortable.
Lin Xiaojiu breathed a sigh of relief, slowly opened his eyes, and saw the familiar figure.
"Awake? Do you feel uncomfortable in any way? Luo Xuanze asked in a low voice.
The gentle appearance made Lin Xiaojiu a little dazed, as if he had returned to his previous days in the town.
Lin Xiaojiu shook his head in a daze, and Luo Xuanze carefully helped him sit up.
The tingling pain in his chest made Lin Xiaojiu frown.
The memories of before falling asleep slowly flooded into her mind.
"The injuries on your body are not very serious, Gu Feng has already prescribed medicine, and it will be fine after resting for a while, but you will live here during this time." Luo Xuanze said.
After Lin Xiaojiu heard this, the corners of his eyebrows moved slightly, and he directly refused, "No, I still have some things to deal with." ”
The matter of the restaurant has just been formalized, and he has been in a coma for several days, Xiaolan and Ah Xiang will be very worried.
Luo Xuanze's face was gloomy, and he couldn't help but feel a little unhappy when he heard her refuse without hesitation.
Is his palace so annoying?
"Lin Xiaojiu, do you want to get rid of me so much?" Luo Xuanze suddenly approached him, held his shoulders tightly with both hands, and said through gritted teeth.
Lin Xiaojiu was startled by his sudden movement, and his eyes widened suddenly.
She never said that she wanted to get rid of him, she was just afraid that Xiaolan and Ah Xiang would worry.
Could it be that this guy is misunderstood? Lin Xiaojiu looked at his hideous appearance, he was in a good mood, and suddenly sneered.
Luo Xuanze looked at her indifferent appearance, his face became darker and darker, and finally sighed deeply, let go of his hand, got up and walked towards the door.
Why is he so stupid, he has been used and deceived by this woman once before, I thought that this woman came to the capital for himself, but he didn't expect it to be his own passion.
The pain in his heart was a little unbearable for him.
I had just taken two steps when I suddenly felt a tightening of my wrist.
Only a soft voice was heard, "I never wanted to get rid of you, if I could, I wanted to stand with you forever." ”
This is already Lin Xiaojiu's biggest limit, and after saying this, he only felt his cheeks flush.
She can make no secret of her love for this man, and even came to the capital for him.
Seeing other women being ambiguous about him, she was jealous and she was angry.
She longed to directly mint a golden hut and lock this man inside, never letting him be discovered by others.
She thought that time would slowly fade the love in her heart.
