"Back."

Qin Ying only said one word coldly, Xingyu was helpless, and he couldn't help but listen to his master's words. I had to collect my sword and take him back to the mansion.

Entering the door, Qin Ying pushed Xingyu away and jumped directly into the tank where the water was stored, his body shrunk into a ball, and the water submerged the top of his head.

"Your Highness, my subordinates will prepare hot water for you."

Xingyu was very worried, although he knew that the prince at this time should indeed wash it well, but the water in the tank was used to prevent the water from running away, it was very cold, and the prince jumped in directly, so it was strange not to get sick.

Qin Ying turned a deaf ear, and it took half a day before he poked his head out of the tank. A jar of clear water instantly became turbid.

"Your Highness, my subordinates will go and prepare hot water."

After washing it with hot water many times, Qin Ying got dressed again. Xingyu had been guarding outside the door, and when he saw Qin Ying coming out, he was still a little worried on his face,

"Your Highness, how are you?"

"It's okay, it's time to kneel."

"What, to kneel? Your Highness, can't you stop kneeling? Or do you want to kneel for you. ”

"The emperor's order cannot be violated, and the holy decree does not say the time, so this king needs to kneel all the time."

"What? Your Highness, how can this be done? ”

"yes, how can that work. Xingyu, how long has this king been kneeling? ”

"Probably, it's been more than half a month."

"Well, it's been half a month."

"What happened to the king who asked you to investigate? What is the relationship between that Ming King and the emperor? ”

"Back to Your Highness, my subordinates have already gone to check, but there is one thing that I can't figure out."

"Say."

"His Royal Highness King Ming is deeply favored by the emperor, and he is both the princess of the country and the king of Ming, so his subordinates don't understand, why is a man actually a princess? As for what her relationship with the emperor is, no one can say clearly. ”

"You just said, princess?" Qin Ying raised his eyebrows and asked word by word.

"That's right, it's a princess, and my subordinates don't know what's going on, the King Ming we saw is obviously a man, but why does everyone say that she is a princess, is it difficult, she will not be able to disguise herself?"

“......”

Qin Ying suddenly remembered King Ming's expression that day, she was so disdainful, looking at herself as if she was looking at something funny, it turned out that she was actually a daughter!

What did I say at the time? said that she was at odds, and even said that her family would be restless! How could I say that about her!

Xingyu saw Qin Ying's expression change slightly, and he was also stunned, and said to himself,

"Could it be that she's really a woman? Come to our Qinbei is a woman dressed as a man? ”

Qin Ying closed his eyes, frowned and sighed slightly, and great regret welled up in his heart, feeling that he was even more uncomfortable at this time than when he was splashed with dirt before, when did he become a person who drew indiscriminate and easy conclusions? Why was the rhetoric so vehement? Is it just because I saw that King Ming was very close to the emperor?

Perhaps, she was originally the emperor's person. But even so, who has the right to be unhappy?

Just an outsider.

Xingyu was very distressed, but he had no choice but to find gold sore medicine to help him get to the wound.

Early the next morning, Qin Ying rushed to the direction of the imperial city with Xingyu. Although there had been a holy decree that he was not allowed to go back again, after these few contacts, Qin Ying seemed to feel that the emperor was humiliating him by changing the law, but it seemed that he would not really take his own life.

When the guards entered the palace to report to King Qin for a meeting, Ling Chen was suddenly stunned, and at the same time faintly a little uneasy, he didn't take the blame for Jing in northern Qin, why did he come to the imperial city?

Could it be that he arranged for someone to coax and throw things before and was discovered by him?

After thinking about it for a long time, there was still no reasonable reason, so he had no choice but to announce Qin Ying in.

Today, Qin Ying wore a purple gold python robe, his hair was not messy, his expression was awe-inspiring and bewitching, and the nobility between his eyebrows was like a natural thing, and he couldn't see the slightest bit of despondency, compared to Ling Chen's elegance, it was really more like the Ninety-Five Honor.

"Why are you here? I don't know if you said that you can't enter Beijing without an edict? ”

Qin Ying knelt down neatly, not seeing the slightest abnormality, Xingyu's eyes behind him moved slightly, his Royal Highness's knees were not good yet, and he began to kneel again.

"The minister knows that he is guilty, and he has come to confess to His Majesty."

"You have sinned so much that I don't know which one you are talking about."

"The minister misunderstood that King Ming was molesting the concubines in the mansion, so he came to ask for guilt."

Oh, that's what it is!

After learning about his intention, Ling Chen was very, hundreds, very unhappy in his heart, this Qin Ying had obviously completely forgotten that Xiaoge was still entangled here, it was really ghostly.

"Okay, how are you going to plead guilty?"

"Your Majesty, can you allow the minister to go to the princess's mansion to make amends in person?"

Ling Chen squinted, thinking about beauty, and wanted to see Xiaoge.

"It seems that you already know that King Ming is a daughter?"

"Exactly!"

"King Ming won't want to see you, she has no father or mother, and she doesn't have any relatives around her, but you say that her relatives are difficult to be safe, you may imagine his mood at that time?"

Hearing this news, Qin Ying's heart tightened again, he didn't know, he really didn't know.

"It's the minister's fault, please ask Your Majesty to allow the minister to go and make amends."

"Humph!" Ling Chen snorted coldly, it is already a big crime for you to return to Beijing for no reason, and now you still want to see King Ming, who gave you such courage?

"How can Your Majesty agree?"

Ling Chen didn't speak, feeling that the anger was slowly surging. Suddenly, Jiang Chengfeng whispered a few words in his ear, and Ling Chen's eyes suddenly tightened, like a line, shooting towards Qin Ying's knees.

Qin Ying realized Ling Chen's gaze, the pain in his knee made him subconsciously tremble, the purple robe was stained with a little blood, and it oozed out slightly, Ling Chen couldn't see it really, but the corners of his mouth pulled a sneer.

"If you really want to make amends, I have a good way, but I don't know if you want to do it."

"Your Majesty, please speak."

Ling Chen sat on the dragon chair, leaned back, made an extremely comfortable posture, smiled slightly, and said lightly,

"There is a mountain in the original East Underworld, called Dai Mountain, there is a Bixia Lingyou Palace on the mountain, it is said that the peace charm inside is very effective, if you can kneel three times and knock nine times to ask for a peace charm, give it to King Ming, maybe, she will really forgive you."

"What Your Majesty said, but the Bixia Temple in the east of Dongyue Daishan Heavenly Street?"

"Exactly! It is reasonable for you to ruin the safety of her family and ask for peace for her. ”

"Your Highness not!" Xingyu on the side whispered behind Qin Ying.

"Daishan is more than a thousand battles, and it is extremely steep, ordinary people have to work hard to climb up, if you want to kneel three times and bow nine times, I am afraid it will be difficult to complete it all day, not to mention that your knees have already worn out."

Qin Ying naturally knew that mountain, it was said that it was the closest place to the sky, and it was also the place where the emperor would go every year to pray for blessings.

"Minister, obey!"

"Good! Asking God for protection must be pious, you have to kneel three times and bow nine times, it is not okay to have one less head, when the time comes, I will secretly find someone to follow you, if you can't do it, don't blame me for several crimes and punishment! ”

"Early tomorrow morning, the ministers will leave on time."

"If you can really ask for a spiritual talisman, I will forgive you for your dereliction of duty and your sin of returning to the court without permission. Alright, you go down. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!"

Qin Ying withdrew from the main hall, and Xingyu on the side couldn't help but say,

"Your Highness, how can you agree, that Dai Mountain is extremely steep, and it is very difficult for ordinary people to climb up, if you really start from the top of the mountain, don't say it's your knee, I'm afraid the whole leg will be wasted."

Qin Ying didn't speak, and walked forward silently.

"Your Highness, why don't your subordinates make you a knee pad, when the time comes, you can go up the mountain with a knee pad, and you can be a little less injured."

"To pray for peace is to be pious, to wear knee pads like a decent."

"Daishan, the period of life and death of the main people in the world, and the trend of the difference between the high and the low, the lord is the primate of all things, people, so if you ask for peace, Daishan is the best choice."

"But Your Highness, even if we ask for it, we don't have to kneel and bow nine times! When the time comes, what should I do if the peace charm is asked for and your life is gone? ”

Xingyu's expression was very anxious, King Qin's body was not very good, if he tossed it like this again, I am afraid that Xiao Ming would really have to go in.

"Xingyu, at that time, Tuoba Man framed King Ming for being rude, I believed it to be true, so I said to King Ming, if this goes on for a long time, her family will not be safe, at that time, she must have hated me very much in her heart. This matter is already my fault, so how to make up for it, it should be. It is imperative to ask for a charm in Daishan, don't persuade me anymore, get ready, and go with me tomorrow. ”

Xingyu is helpless, no matter what time it is, King Qin's strong temperament still hasn't changed, as long as he said it, he must find a way to complete it, which is also an important reason why Xingyu will always be loyal to Qin Ying, he always knows what he wants, and he can even do whatever it takes to achieve this result.

The next day, they came to the foot of Daishan Mountain, but unexpectedly, it actually rained lightly, and the already cold weather became even more biting.

Xingyu hurriedly said, "Your Highness, it's raining today, why don't we start tomorrow." ”

Qin Ying frowned, and said lightly,

"Xingyu, your recent words are too much. If you want to continue to follow this king, remember to be careful in your words and deeds, don't say what you shouldn't say, and the person who needs to think about what to do is this king, otherwise, leave now. ”

The pain in the body may be bearable, but the pain in the heart will make people want to cry without tears, tossing and turning, and it is difficult to speak.

The top of the mountain has been shrouded in clouds and mist, making it difficult to see, Qin Ying knelt on the cold and slippery steps, the pain from his knees rushed to the top of his head, the rain was not heavy, but it wet his robe little by little, it was cold and piercing, and it was not painful.

Don't know how far and near you are, how desolate and boring it is.

The eyes of His Royal Highness King Ming have always appeared in Qin Ying's mind, ethereal and poignant, as if shrouded in a layer of mist, hiding countless stubbornness and sorrow, at a glance, you will feel heartache, and now when you think about it, you feel even more difficult to breathe.

However, after kneeling for a quarter of an hour, his originally hot knees slowly became cold, and he even felt like the rain was drilling into his flesh. Qin Ying gasped and looked towards the top of the mountain where there was no end in sight, it seemed that it was a hundred times more difficult to go up than he imagined, it was possible, he would really die here.

It's okay, it should have been like this.

Qin Ying continued to take firm upward steps. Xingyu felt distressed for a while, and wanted to step forward to dissuade him, but when he thought of Qin Ying's words just now, he didn't dare to say anything anymore, so he could only silently follow behind him at any time.

The steps of Daishan are not only steep, but also very narrow, at this time it has become very slippery after a light rain, Qin Ying walked up three steps and knelt, walked up nine steps and kowtowed heavily, the blood lotus on the forehead had already become blurry with the impact, the raindrops slowly soaked the wound, and the blood slowly flowed down from the cheeks.

However, less than halfway through the climb, Xingyu felt that his Royal Highness was about to die. It's just that Qin Ying continued to walk up regardless of it, and when he was extremely tired, he gasped lightly on the steps, and then continued to go up.
