Kneeling with Wang Zhao under the long steps outside the Lizheng Palace, Cui Ming hadn't figured out what was going on.

There is not a lot of gossip about Su Xiaozhou in the East Palace, and there are more words than what he said today, how could he deliberately come to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for guilt?

Originally, it was not a big deal, but he came to accuse him solemnly, in case His Royal Highness was in a bad mood at this time, and he was convicted of slandering the prince and disobedience, and the good future of this life would be over.

"Wang Zhonglang, he lost his words for a while, but he didn't say anything wrong, His Royal Highness really cherished Vice President Su very much. I had a quarrel with him, and it didn't hurt, no one would pursue it, so I took the liberty of meeting His Highness, and the original trivial matter was going to be turned into a big one. Let's ...... Why don't you go back and discuss it again? He said tremblingly.

Since entering the East Palace for half a year, it has been too late for him to confront Wang Zhao, and it is impossible to offend him, and today it is even to cheer him up, so he will make a speech that stimulates Su Xiaozhou. was so dedicated, but he was caught by him to see His Highness, and things seemed to be a little wrong......

Wang Zhao glanced at him, and his face showed a hint of helplessness.

"Actually, today's events have nothing to do with you. But Xiaozhou was injured, and I was worried that I couldn't afford it alone, so I came with you to ask for sin. Deputy Cui, if you want to complain, blame me. ”

"Uh-"

Cui Ming thought that he had heard it wrong, the son of the Taiyuan Wang family, the Zhonglang General who was in charge of the East Palace and the soldiers of Wanfu, told him that he was worried that he would not be able to bear the responsibility of Su Xiaozhou's hanging color? !

"My lord, I am willing to apologize to Deputy Su. We can certainly get his understanding, let's not make a big deal out of it......" he almost pleaded.

"The important thing is not what you say, it's that Xiaozhou is injured!" Wang Zhao couldn't suppress his anger a little, this person was extremely dull and had to pretend to be smart, so he was really not suitable to stay in the East Palace.

Cui Ming was also anxious when he heard this, "Su Xiaozhou was injured, he caused it himself, and neither the adults nor I did anything, everyone has seen this!" ”

"You still don't understand!"

Wang Zhao couldn't help but sigh, "Xiaozhou is not his own, but from the East Palace, and it belongs to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." ”

"Yes——! We are all from the East Palace, and we are Your Highness. Therefore, there is no need to disturb His Highness because of such a small injury or such a trivial matter! The messenger has not yet come out, and Cui Ming is still making the last struggle.

"What small injuries, small things?"

Wang Zhao sighed heavily, frowned and said, "In the East Palace, about Xiaozhou...... There are no small things. ”

Cui Ming thought he knew everything about the East Palace, but in fact, he didn't. Su Xiaozhou is a variable, when he was a child, everyone was ignorant, and he often partnered to bully him, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince never stopped it, but there is a bottom line: no one can hurt a single hair of Xiaozhou.

This bottom line is not compromised in the slightest.

In the first year of entering the palace, because Su Xiaozhou's nails were dyed black with ink, the children of the Zheng family in Xingyang were beaten until their skin was open and they rushed back to their hometown.

So for many years, Su Xiaozhou will definitely win the championship in all martial arts trials, because no one dares to touch him at all. Of course, if he is accidentally injured, he himself will not be better, and he will be confined to his feet at least and copying books at worst, all on a monthly basis.

Why did he deliberately hurt himself today? I guess I can't ask the answer, but maybe I can find the reason from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

"Wang Zhonglang, why are you here now?"

The attendants came out of the hall and walked quickly to them.

Cui Ming's legs were a little weak, "My lord, it's a big deal...... What will be the result? ”

"If it is light, it will be flogged, and if it is heavy, it will be degraded." Wang Zhao replied calmly.

"So serious—"

Cui Ming sat slumped on the ground, trembling, "Why did Su Xiaozhou frame the adult?" ”

Wang Zhao shook his head, "He must have his own reasons. ”

Since they were children, they have been selected into the East Palace together, and they have been together day and night for many years, and their relationship has long been not just colleagues, but partners who are closer than their families, and they are inseparable siblings.

Many years ago, in the spring dynasty, the day when the first peach was in full bloom, the child with a different smile was the only constant color in his memory. He believed that no matter how harsh he treated, Su Xiaozhou would never have the heart to be unfavorable to him.

East Palace, West Guard

The bamboo forest covers the west window, and the candlelight in the room is dim.

Su Xiaozhou wore a wide moon-white robe, knelt in front of the low desk, and carefully combed his long hair in front of the bronze mirror.

Although no red makeup is applied, the pink color is still reflected in the mirror. With a tall forehead, slender eyebrows, fair skin, and green silk that hangs down like a waterfall, it is clear that she is a young woman inside and outside the bronze mirror.

She is a daughter, and she is the second secret she has to keep until she dies.

In the dead of night, the evening breeze blows away the heat of the day.

There was a faint pain in her palm, and at the same time she felt the faint coolness of the wound medicine. After a long day's work, I was already very sleepy at this time, and I had refilled the lamp oil, but I still couldn't go to bed.

She's waiting for someone......

"Squeak-" and the door was pushed open from the outside.

The sudden sound, Su Xiaozhou did not panic. At this hour, no one will come except His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

"Your Highness—"

When she turned around, Li Hong's slender figure had already been cast into the inner room. He was dressed in a lilac robe, with his hair tied in a high bun, and he was not crowned, apparently from the dormitory.

The light was dim, and his face could not be illuminated, and he could only vaguely see a cold side face with anger.

"Your Highness, I ......"

Before the words could be spoken, Li Hong had already pounced and grabbed her hand wrapped around Baisha.

He frowned, and the word "Chuan" was couched between his eyebrows.

"Didn't I tell you...... Never get hurt?! ”

"Your Highness, a small injury, it's not in the way." Su Xiaozhou said cautiously.

Since entering the East Palace, every time she was injured, she would anger His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and even anger everyone involved. As for the reason, I haven't figured it out for so many years. Although this time, she deliberately injured herself.

"Did you get it yourself?" Li Hong asked.

"Hmm."

Su Xiaozhou nodded again and again, and hurriedly asked, "How did His Highness deal with Brother Wang Zhao?" ”

"Twenty rods, demoted to Liupin Zhaowu Captain, moved to the Shanzhou border army."

"Twenty strokes, that's too much......"

Su Xiaozhou was stunned, his eyes rolled and said, "In this way, no one should doubt it, right?" ”

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had already mentioned that he needed to send Wang Zhao to Shanzhou to do something important. However, His Majesty has been in poor health recently, and he is worried that sending people to garrison the town will arouse the suspicion of the two saints and the courtiers, so he has not moved.

Today, she took advantage of the situation, just giving His Highness a reason to "attack" Wang Zhao.

Li Hong poked her forehead, "Even if you doubt it, you will only be suspicious." ”

"Can the minister have merit and demerits?"

"If you want to be beautiful, copy the Tao Te Ching three hundred times."

"How can you copy a book if you hurt your hand?"

Su Xiaozhou raised his hand suddenly, and said with a crumbling mouth: "Thanks to inviting the imperial doctor to come and see it in time, otherwise it will ......"

"Otherwise, what's wrong?"

Li Hong suddenly became nervous, for fear that something was wrong with her hands.
