Chapter 117: Confronting the Temple
Princess Ankang sighed in her heart, thinking that she really didn't like Princess An Ning, even if she knew that everything before was a misunderstanding, it was because of her immaturity and deep jealousy, but she still couldn't calmly accept Princess An Ning's step-by-step calculation.
But if you don't like it, Princess Ankang still chooses to accept it.
She knew that she couldn't resist Princess Anning's arrangement, so she might as well accept it obediently.
Besides, this is still made of a sedan chair, which is much better than walking slowly by yourself.
She'll still be lazy and happy.
Princess Ankang walked in front of the sedan chair and saw a group of yellow doors saluting her, so she nodded very arrogantly and introvertedly, and it seemed that she finally had a kind of style that a princess should have.
She got on the sedan chair with the support of the Yellow Gate, and then followed the swaying of the sedan chair and arrived at Weiyang Palace.
Princess Ankang couldn't help but take a deep breath, suppressed the complicated and indistinguishable thoughts that were surging up in her heart, walked to the little yellow door guarding the door of the Xuanzheng Palace, smiled slightly, looked still as arrogant as before, and said to him:
"Brother Huang is in there? Hurry up and report it! ”
Xiao Huangmen didn't dare to say much, and after seeing Princess Ankang, he didn't even hesitate for a minute, so he walked directly to the door and let the Huangmen squire pass it to the palace.
In the Xuanzheng Palace, Sima Zhao was discussing matters related to the enthronement ceremony with several officials.
Hearing that Princess Ankang was here and was waiting outside the palace gate to be summoned, Sima Zhao couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
For a while, he didn't even react, why did Princess Ankang still let people pass it on, instead of directly entering this Xuanzheng Palace, anyway, she didn't do it.
After a long while, Sima Zhao realized that the person who came was Princess Ankang instead of Princess Anning.
In his heart, he couldn't help but be a little sneering, and he had some weakness.
However, he thought of Princess Ankang's current situation, and this bit of weakness quickly disappeared.
He couldn't help frowning, as if talking to himself and as if asking the person next to him, "Why did Princess Ankang appear here waiting to be summoned, shouldn't she still be studying there in the head of the court?" ”
The attendant who was waiting beside Sima Zhao heard Sima Zhao's question, but he couldn't answer.
Seriously, he didn't even know when Princess Ankang went to the court, so how could he answer Sima Zhao's question?
But fortunately, Sima Zhao seemed to just muttered to himself, and did not necessarily ask for an answer.
When he was debating whether to see Princess Ankang, Princess Ankang actually pushed open the door and came in.
Before the expression on Sima Zhao's face could be completely concealed, he saw that Princess Ankang had already saluted several ministers in a proper manner.
Then he saw that Princess Ankang's eyes lit up because she saw her, and she was about to run towards her with a swagger.
Sima Zhao hurriedly walked a few steps quickly, stepped forward to stop Princess Ankang, and didn't let her get too close to the ministers.
He seemed to be a little embarrassed, and pretended to be very gentle and cared about Princess Ankang,
"Ankang, why did you come out? Why don't you tell me in advance, I can have someone pick you up. ”
"Ankang has seen the royal brother, long live the royal brother, long live, long live, long live." Princess Ankang put the flash of dissatisfaction on Sima Zhao's face in her heart, thinking that after that day, Sima Zhao's attitude changed a lot.
Of course, the most important thing is that Sima Zhao doesn't seem to care much about the family line between him and them after that time.
That night, Sima Zhao, who abandoned Princess Ankang for the sake of his throne stability, seemed to have simply torn off his mask at this time-
I don't care at all, whether Princess Ankang has been raised by her and her mother since she was a child, and grew up with her.
Now it's even too lazy to be perfunctory, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like welcoming Princess An Ning to leave the court and return to her normal life.
Sima Zhao is so ruthless, Princess Ankang naturally doesn't have to be so polite.
She was originally a lord who refused to suffer, but in the recent past, under the oppression of her aunt in charge of the court, she seems to be much more disciplined and docile.
But in fact, Princess Ankang is still the same Princess Ankang in her heart.
It's just that Princess Ankang needs to rekindle a fire in her heart, so that she can continue to have the courage to face her heart and return to her original appearance.
And this fire, just now, has been lit by Princess Anning.
After she saluted Sima Zhao, she looked directly at the ministers who were discussing with Sima Zhao here.
Although she was stopped by Sima Zhao a step away from these ministers, she still clearly saw the appearance of several adults.
There is no familiar person, it seems that it should be someone who Sima Zhao has only recently promoted.
Princess Ankang took this matter to heart, and then lowered her head, and when she raised her head, there was a trace of hidden anger on her face.
She dragged Sima Zhao, and said in a low voice that was just enough for everyone to hear: "Brother Huang, I came today because I have something to ask you." You tell me, Xie Rong was not killed by you! ”
When Sima Zhao heard Xie Rong's name, his pupils shrank suddenly. Then he pretended to be in a trance and said as if nothing had happened: "Xie Rong? Oh, you're talking about Captain Xie! Ankang, Captain Xie is now in Mi County, are you confused? ”
Princess Ankang's eyes seemed to be red, and her eyes were full of disappointment,
"Brother Huang, can't you even tell me the truth now? Xie Rong's body has been found in the palace, and it has been placed in front of me, but you are still lying to me. You've let me down so much. ”
"Healthy!" Sima Zhao's face seemed to sink, and then he said as if he was a little helpless and distressed, "Alas, where did you hear about this?" The person who told you about this is simply ill-intentioned.
I don't tell you about Xie Rong, I just think that you have a lot of connections with Xie Rong. It would not be good if you were to tell you about his death. ”
"Do you really think so?" Princess Ankang raised her head and stared at Sima Zhao with fixed eyes.
Sima Zhao's heart was empty, and for a moment he seemed to feel that Princess Ankang's eyes revealed the information that he already knew everything. But in the blink of an eye, that feeling was gone.
Sima Zhao sighed, stretched out his hand to touch Princess Ankang's head,
"As an elder brother, how can he deceive his sister? I also regret Xie Rong's death, I didn't expect to lose my life at such a young age.
However, he died for the Great Emperor, and it is not an insult to his reputation, nor is it a disgrace to my Great Emperor. ”
Princess Ankang shook her head after hearing this, and chuckled, but the smile on the corner of her mouth was very bitter,
"Brother Huang, when did you become like this? For the sake of power, can you really do anything, say anything? Is your conscience really not troubled? ”
