Chapter 219: Confrontation
"Wen Ke, why do you think so? No matter what, we will be on your side. The crown prince said comfortably, Princess Wen Ke.
Rao is Wen Ke has such a hot temper, and she also put out the fire when she heard the prince say this, but she still couldn't get over that hurdle in her heart, and said a little sullenly, "Then why didn't you help me speak just now?" I obviously didn't do anything wrong, but the Queen Mother still wants to punish me like this, even Wei Xiyue, that slut, and the punishment is lighter than mine. ”
"Wen Ke, the reason why the imperial brother didn't speak for you just now is also for your good. The Queen Mother never allows others to question her majesty, you just contradicted the Queen Mother, she has increased your punishment so many times, if I speak for you again, not only will my punishment be aggravated, your punishment will definitely be heavier than now. "The prince is kind and seductive.
With these words, he immediately portrayed himself as a gentle and polite brother who thought about his sister. What's more, Princess Wen Ke's brain circuit hasn't sensed anything wrong.
Hearing what the prince said, Wei Feiyue hurriedly echoed, "Yes, Princess Wen Ke, the prince was also good for you just now." And the Queen Mother has always liked Huo Lingxiao, and Huo Lingxiao is on the same side as Wei Xiyue's slut, so the Queen Mother punished Wei Xiyue lightly. Now it's just us on the side, princess, don't be angry with the prince, in this case, it's hard to guarantee that the threat of that slut won't take advantage of it. ”
Princess Wen Ke glanced at Wei Feiyue, and accepted what she said, and her anger towards them also subsided, and she transferred all her anger to Wei Xiyue.
"Wei Xiyue, sooner or later, I will have to expose your true colors one day, and see how you will deal with yourself then!"
The crown prince and Wei Feiyue knew when they heard what Princess Wen Ke said, and they had another good gun.
The Queen Mother left Huo Lingxiao and Wei Xiyue behind, but he didn't have Huo Lingxiao's heart, but said to Wei Xiyue first, "Xiyue, I have heard about your affairs, you are a good girl, in the face of that kind of slander, you can not mess with the rules, the academy did not cultivate you in vain." ”
"The Queen Mother praised falsely, the folk girl is just an ordinary deep boudoir woman, and today's events are only because they are really full of loopholes, and the folk girl will have a law to break, otherwise the folk girl may have been expelled from the academy at this moment and become a laughing stock." Wei Xiyue said seemingly modestly, but in fact, it contained dissatisfaction with this incident.
The Queen Mother has always admired talented people, and she doesn't care about Wei Xiyue's innocuous little temper at all.
Not only that, but the Queen Mother also asked, "This time, it is indeed the academy's lax discipline that will cause such a thing to happen." Although you managed to break the game, you were still frightened, and the mourning family should compensate you a little, but you should tell me what you want? ”
Wei Xiyue pondered for a moment, "The people don't have anything special to want, if you can, the people hope that the Queen Mother can rectify the order of the academy and ensure the fairness and justice of this academy monthly examination, and I also hope that the Queen Mother can agree." ”
The Queen Mother thought about many possibilities, but she didn't expect that Wei Xiyue would want this, and she couldn't help but be a little interested in Wei Xiyue, "Then tell me, why do you want this?" ”
"Actually, why this happened this time, the Queen Mother should also know, it is nothing more than for the first place in the monthly exam this time. The reason why the people's daughters made such a request to the Queen Mother was also because they were afraid that they would do it again and use improper means to get the first place in the monthly exam. As long as the Queen Mother can agree to this, the rest will be fought for by herself. Wei Xiyue's words were extremely sincere.
But the Queen Mother still hesitated.
Not to mention the side, if she really agreed to Wei Xiyue, it would inevitably lead to rumors that she favored Wei Xiyue.
Although she is the queen mother, she has long stopped caring about these, but the people in the academy are all children of those families, and various forces are intertwined, even if she is the queen mother, it is still a little tricky to rectify the order of this academy.
Huo Lingxiao saw that the Queen Mother hesitated, and hurriedly handed Huo Zeshen beside the Queen Mother a look, Huo Zeshen understood, and said good things about Wei Xiyue to the Queen Mother.
"Imperial Grandmother, you also said that Miss Wei is a good girl, those who are angry at Miss Wei will definitely come a second time if they don't succeed this time, Miss Wei is actually thinking about her own safety. Imperial grandmother, can you bear to see a good girl framed and abused by those villains? Huo Zeshen said.
As soon as he said this, the Queen Mother knew that Huo Lingxiao had instructed him to say it, and glared at Huo Lingxiao a little angrily, and got Huo Lingxiao's look with some sneer.
But I have to say that the Queen Mother was indeed shaken by Huo Zeshen's words.
The Queen Mother is a decent person, perhaps because she is getting older, and she is becoming more and more unaccustomed to those unfair things. And the reason why she took over these things is that she does have some meanings that she can't get used to those who do things in secret.
Huo Zeshen saw that his persuasion was effective, so he hurriedly added another fire to the Queen Mother, "Imperial grandmother, the academy is running so well now, and you also have a share of the credit, but now that such a thing has happened in the academy, if the villain is successful, it is difficult to guarantee that no more people will do such a thing in order to take shortcuts, can you watch it at that time?" You can accede to Miss Wei's request. ”
The Queen Mother looked at Huo Zeshen and His Royal Highness Wei Xiyue, sighed, and finally relented, "Okay, the mourning family agreed." ”
Wei Xiyue didn't react a little, she was pulled by Huo Lingxiao's sleeve before she came back to her senses, and hurriedly knelt down to thank her, "Thank you, Queen Mother!" ”
The Queen Mother waved her hand, "You don't have to thank you, go down first, Ling Xiao and I still have something to say." ”
It wasn't until Wei Xiyue left the palace that the Queen Mother turned her gaze to Huo Lingxiao.
Huo Lingxiao thought that the Queen Mother was going to tell him something important, but he didn't expect to wait for a burst of scolding from the Queen Mother.
"Huo Lingxiao, I think you've been living too comfortably lately. You actually dare to directly confront the crown prince, do you know that your actions today directly ruined your previous image in front of the emperor? Do you still have the brains, why do you do things so unseriously? ”
Huo Lingxiao also looked solemn after listening to the Queen Mother's scolding, and knelt down directly in front of the Queen Mother, "It's me who didn't think about it, and I ask the Queen Mother to punish her." ”
The Queen Mother snorted, "Even if you still know that you are wrong, it depends on whether you will be so aggressive in doing things in the future!" There is no need for the side, just copy a volume of the mean every day and send it to my palace. ”
Huo Lingxiao kowtowed and said "yes", and the Queen Mother waved her hand and asked him to leave with Huo Zeshen.
Out of the hall, Huo Lingxiao and Huo Zeshen thought that Wei Xiyue hadn't gone far yet, so they quickened their pace, and sure enough, they caught up with Wei Xiyue at the palace gate.
Wei Xiyue didn't expect the two of them to come out so quickly, and she was a little surprised when she was caught up, "Did the Queen Mother say anything?" How did you guys come out so quickly? ”
Huo Lingxiao shook his head, "Even if you scolded me, it's nothing." Now that the monthly exam hasn't started yet, it is estimated that they will not give up, and you are not safe around now, why don't I send a secret guard to protect you? ”
Wei Xiyue refused, "I don't need it." As far as their methods are concerned, in my eyes they are just a few petty fights, and the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and I will not be threatened by anything. It's you, you should be in a lot more dangerous than me now, you better keep the secret guard to protect yourself. ”
Huo Lingxiao wanted to say something, but he didn't expect to collide with the prince here again.
"Isn't this the third emperor brother and the eleventh emperor brother? And Miss Wei, why are you here? The prince asked.
Huo Zeshen glanced at the crown prince and said lightly, "We just came out of the Empress Dowager's palace, but why hasn't the imperial brother left here?" ”
"Well, the Queen Mother just left you behind, I don't know what she said to you?" The topic of the prince turned very bluntly, and the questions were asked very explicitly.
Huo Lingxiao faced the crown prince, but it was impossible to be as calm as he had just faced Wei Xiyue, let alone tell the prince that the queen mother had left him to criticize just now.
"The imperial grandmother deliberately left us down, but she didn't say anything, just comforted us, and told us to beware of villains, after all, the academy is not a clean place." Huo Lingxiao's words sounded like nothing wrong, and to some extent, it was indeed the truth, but it sounded very harsh to the ears of the prince.
The prince didn't take Huo Lingxiao's words seriously, he only felt that Huo Lingxiao was secretly satirizing himself, but he couldn't pick Huo Lingxiao's thorn - this is what he said Huo Lingxiao was wrong, isn't that just admitting that he is a villain?
"So that's the case, then the Queen Mother really cares about you, but she is right, where is there no villain? Imperial brother, you really have to be careful. The prince laughed dryly, and then pulled the topic to Wei Xiyue.
"Miss Wei, we may really blame you for today's incident at the Academy. But Wen Ke is just a true temperament, and I hope you don't take these little things to heart. ”
The prince's words made Wei Xiyue pout, but she didn't let the prince see it, but said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "Where is the prince, the clear person will clear himself, but this matter has already been in front of the emperor and the queen mother, and it is inevitable to say that it is a trivial matter." Princess Wen Ke's temperament, everyone knows it, it is indeed true. ”
The prince laughed even more embarrassed when he heard this.
He originally came here to suppress Huo Lingxiao's sharp spirit, but he didn't expect that neither of them would sell him face, and now he became the most uninteresting person.
Wei Xiyue didn't want to stay here any longer, so she simply rubbed her temples, "I'm sorry, prince, the people's daughter was really frightened too much today, so the people's daughter will retire first." ”
After Wei Xiyue left, the three people left in the confrontation were the prince and Huo Lingxiao Huo Zeshen, and the prince wanted to say something more to forcibly save his respect, but he didn't expect the eunuch Ah Fu to come at this time.
"The crown prince, the third prince, the emperor sent our family to find you, and please go with our family."
