Chapter 402: The Truth
Lang Yue felt aggrieved, looking at the angry Emperor Mingde, tears were hanging down, but at this time, crying out was afraid that it would be the disgust of Emperor Mingde.
She blinked, and her gaze suddenly shot at Yan Ruoxi. The emperor has a lot of opportunities, how can he know that this little thing that happens in every palace must be Yan Ruoxi's slut who blew the wind in front of the emperor, so he came to trouble himself.
Lang Yue spread out her hands and said helplessly, "Your Majesty, what's the use of the concubine holding Li Chuxia's restaurant title deed?" I'm not good at business, and I don't want to do it, so the title deed is just a piece of waste paper for me. ”
"Hmph, at that time, someone obviously saw Xiao Er in the restaurant kicking Li Chuxia out, let me ask, which helper is so arrogant that he dares to blow up the owner?" Yan Ruoxi pinched her very thin voice and spoke, still not believing Lang Yue's words in her words.
Emperor Mingde's eight winds did not move in place, and he did not refute Yan Ruoxi's words.
The more he argued, the colder Lang Yue's heart became. Emperor Mingde made it clear that he didn't believe her, and he had to get the title deed today. However, the title deed has long been returned, where did she conjure up one again?
"Since the emperor doesn't believe in the words of the concubine, it is better to summon Li Chuxia into the palace to ask, so as to return the concubine's innocence."
Lang Yue's voice was crisp, and now she didn't have any emotion, but she looked cold and detached. If it was the past, she would never dare to talk to Emperor Mingde, but now that she has been wronged, she naturally feels uncomfortable.
Emperor Mingde raised his eyes, "Okay, let her enter the palace to confront you." You'd better not lie to me, or you'll end up ......"
"Come here, spread my will, and announce that Li will meet you in early summer!"
The anger of the Son of Heaven made everyone present tremble a few times unconsciously.
Li Chuxia, who received the holy decree, had a headache almost instantly, if it was possible, she really hoped that she would never have to see Emperor Mingde again in her life.
Baili Yunzheng hugged the person distressedly, and said with concern, "Otherwise, I will go with you, with me present, at least I can protect you in front of Emperor Mingde." ”
"Farewell...... Emperor Mingde wants me to enter the palace alone, and then take you with me, I don't know what trouble I am looking for. Li Chuxia shook his head and refused, "You, don't worry too much, it's just to enter the palace, could it be that there is some fierce beast in it, and you can't eat me in one bite?" ”
Li Chuxia patted Baili Yunzheng's hand amusefully, making him relax.
Since the two reconciled, Baili Yunzheng can't wait to follow him all the time, and he is even more afraid that he will bump into her a little bit and hold her like a porcelain doll.
But how could she be so vulnerable?
Baili Yunzheng said that Li Chuxia couldn't do it, so he had to let her go. Before the people left the house, they began to worry in their hearts, and they didn't know why Emperor Mingde summoned people into the palace at this time......
"Your Majesty, Li Chuxia brought it." The eunuch beside Emperor Mingde whispered.
Lang Yue seemed to see hope for a moment, a clear smile rose at the corner of her mouth, and she looked at Yan Ruoxi's expression with a bit of victory.
According to Li Chuxia's temperament, he will never lie and stand on Yan Ruoxi's side. As long as she is willing to say that the title deed is in her hands, then even Emperor Mingde can't take it herself.
"Bring people in." Emperor Mingde waved his hand, and someone immediately took the order to do it.
Unlike Lang Yue's appearance, Yan Ruoxi was a little panicked, she didn't expect things to be like this.
Li Chuxia followed behind the eunuch and raised his eyebrows to see that the people in this room actually had a holiday with him.
I don't know what Emperor Mingde had in mind.
"I've seen the emperor, but I don't know what the emperor called the grass people into the palace?" Li Chuxia saluted in a proper manner, so that people couldn't find fault with it. Except for the cold tone, the other etiquette is quite thoughtful.
Emperor Mingde sneered, and glanced at Lang Yue inadvertently, "I heard that my imperial concubine Niangniang Ji took the title deed of your restaurant, so I came to you to ask if there was such a thing." ”
Lang Yue's eyes widened suddenly, and the emperor didn't even ask, so he pressed the charge on his head.
"Yes, yes." Li Chuxia said with a smile, it turned out to be for his own restaurant.
She was exquisite, and she saw that Yan Ruoxi was also present, but she sorted out the twists and turns in a few clicks. It seems that they are dog-eat-dog, and they can't get a result from biting, so they call themselves.
After receiving an affirmative answer, Emperor Mingde's eyes shot at Lang Yue like an arrow, this person was so bold that he dared to deceive himself.
Lang Yue trembled, barely pulling out a smile, but even the corners of her mouth twitched, "Your Majesty, the concubine really returned the title deed, and it was handed over to the concubine's brother to bring to early summer, and the title deed is really not here with me." ”
After that, she looked at Li Chuxia again, her eyes were inadvertently full of pleading, "Chuxia, do you say it's Chuxia...... I couldn't think about it for a while, so I took your title deed, but in the end I returned it......"
"Early summer, you can say something!"
She was really panicked, the emperor had been thinking about Li Chuxia's restaurant for a long time, if she really pinched the title deed and refused to hand it over, the emperor would definitely blame herself, and maybe she would find an excuse to enter the cold palace.
Emperor Mingde didn't want to listen to Lang Yue's words anymore, and pushed people away in annoyance, "Hmph, what else do you have to say!" Come! Take her down to me! ”
"Nope! Don't, Your Majesty! Lang Yue howled, and with all his might, he didn't let a few strong eunuchs get close.
Li Chuxia had seen enough of this farce, and felt that his anger had come out, so he said loudly, "Slow! Your Majesty, I haven't finished saying this yet, and you're probably too anxious. ”
Emperor Mingde raised his eyebrows and said impatiently, "What else do you have to say?" ”
"The imperial concubine Niangniang got the title deed of my restaurant, but she did let Lang Qi return it to me. This came and went, the title deed was like going through the motions in the hands of the mother, and in the end, it was still in my hands. ”
Lang Yue breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the chair like a loss of strength, this catastrophe, she was over.
"What you say is true?" Emperor Mingde's voice was no longer impatient, but a little hesitant, as if he still didn't believe Li Chuxia's words.
Li Chuxia smiled nonchalantly, "If the restaurant I worked so hard to run changes hands, how can I speak for others?" ”
Indeed, Emperor Mingde quickly figured out the joints.
"The emperor cares so much about the grass people's restaurant, but he is really flattered." Li Chuxia was smiling, but when he looked closely, the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes, and the words he said were also weird.
Emperor Mingde felt that he had been disgraced, and he made this farce alive, he looked at the initiator, "Did you already know?" ”
Yan Ruoxi pouted himself vigorously, since Li Chuxia came in, the whole person was wrong, and when he thought that he was like being used as a sword, his anger did not come to a place.
"No...... The concubine didn't know. Yan Ruoxi immediately denied it, if she really let Emperor Mingde know the truth, she would be the unlucky.
Emperor Mingde squinted, couldn't guess what he was thinking, swept over everyone with cold eyes, flicked his sleeves and walked out. Yan Ruoxi was stunned for a moment, and then followed, and he must not let Emperor Mingde settle this account on his head.
For a while, most of the people left, and only Li Chuxia and Lang Yue were left in the house.
Although Lang Yue was grateful that Li Chuxia didn't take the opportunity to fall into the well and pull herself to fall even worse, the words of gratitude were stuck in her throat like fish bones, and she couldn't say anything.
"Come on, my task is complete, so I won't accompany you for now." Li Chuxia also felt that he had nothing to say to Lang Yue, rather than being in such a stalemate, it was better to leave the palace and return home.
"Wait!" Lang Yue finally spoke up, "Thank you for today's incident." ”
Lang Yue frowned slightly, but still said words of gratitude.
Li Chuxia waved his hand indifferently, "For Lang Qi's sake, let me remind you that only by eradicating Yan Ruoxi can you live a worry-free life for the time being." ”
"I see, I'm going to get rid of her." Lang Yue's eyes darkened, and the hand hidden in his sleeve clenched tightly into a fist.
Since entering the palace, she and Yan Ruoxi have never stopped fighting, but after careful calculation, they have won fewer and lost more, and even once they were locked up for a long time by Emperor Mingde.
Li Chuxia said all this, and when he saw that Lang Yue understood his words, he didn't say much, leaving Lang Yue and leaving the palace.
On the other side, Yan Ruoxi caught up with Emperor Mingde, but now that Emperor Mingde was angry, she didn't dare to rashly touch the mold.
Yan Ruoxi counted all this on Li Chuxia's head, this person is afraid that he was born to restrain himself, and snatched his position as Miss Yan Family, not to mention, even if he enters the palace, he will still be ghostly.
"Your Majesty, you are angry, the concubine was in a hurry, and she didn't investigate the matter clearly, and asked the emperor to forgive you." Yan Ruoxi pinched her handkerchief and pretended to wipe it twice from the corner of her eyes, her voice so self-reproachful.
"The concubine just thought, Li Chuxia's restaurant has long been famous, even many foreigners have come to our capital, and they have to go there first to try it, if they change the chef or something for a while, and smash this signboard, wouldn't it slap our Jiangbei in the face?"
Yan Ruoxi said it in a high-sounding manner, and took out the little covetous thoughts of Emperor Mingde, as if he had really become a good person who worried about the country and the people.
The beauty was crying, and it was another kindness, Emperor Mingde quickly lost his anger, and the two hugged him in his arms, "You, you are too impulsive, otherwise, how can there be this today?" ”
Yan Ruoxi lowered her eyes, and her voice was relative, "How could the concubine think of this, but why did you say that the imperial concubine's sister returned the title deed?" ”
"Who sent the news to you?" Emperor Mingde asked.
Yan Ruoxi was stunned for a moment, then realized that this was a good opportunity at this time, suppressed the excitement in her heart, and still replied sadly, "The concubine doesn't know that person, but the concubine seems to have seen him beside Lord Baili, and after listening to what he said, she believed him." ”
"Your Majesty, do you think it's ......?"
Without saying anything, Yan Ruoxi lowered her head, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a triumphant smile. Her words planted the seeds of suspicion in the emperor's heart, as long as he thought that the three of them were colluding together......
Presumably, the emperor will not trust any of those three people in the future.
