The female envoy of the palace of the king of Qi reported to the palace, saying that Xu Zhao used the technique of disgust to curse His Majesty and Mrs. Yan.

Emperor Chengji was furious, and people investigated thoroughly, and sure enough, the rag doll with a needle found in Xu Zhao's house; Because the evidence was conclusive, Xu Zhao was immediately ordered to be imprisoned.

It happened too suddenly, and Xu Zhao had already been taken away when Xie Jun learned about it.

Xie Jun naturally didn't believe that Xu Zhao would do such a thing, she was a girl from Xilin, and she didn't know all the ups and downs here in the royal capital; But because he brought her to the royal capital and put her in a dire position, he also harmed her.

He knew too well how many people in the royal capital wanted to get rid of Xu Zhao, because Xu Zhao's existence was in the way of them, and the first to bear the brunt was his mother, Mrs. Yan. The mother concubine always hoped that he would marry a girl from a family with a comparable status as the princess, but he fell in love with Xu Zhao, who was from a humble background.

He thought he could protect Xu Zhao, but in the end he was still powerless.

Xie Jun hurriedly entered the palace to see Emperor Chengji, but was intercepted by Mrs. Yan's people halfway; The son of Mo Ruomu, Mrs. Yan had already expected that Xie Jun would enter the palace, but she couldn't let Xie Jun see Emperor Chengji.

It wasn't until Xie Jun was stopped by her people and brought over that she secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Wen Yuan, talk to your mother!" ”

"Mother, Ah Zhao, did you let you do it?" Xie Jun couldn't care so much anymore, so he asked.

"What nonsense are you talking about? That's her own sin, what does it have to do with this palace! Mrs. Yan's face changed.

Xie Jun shook his head resolutely: "Mother, I know Ah Zhao, Ah Zhao will never do this kind of thing, she doesn't even know what the disgust is." Mother, I really like Ah Zhao, and I won't be with anyone except Ah Zhao. ”

Mrs. Yan was furious: "Xu Zhao Xu Zhao, is there anyone else in your eyes besides Xu Zhao now?" That Xu Zhao, apart from a bewitching face, what else is worthy of your obsession? You are the eldest son of the emperor, the prince whom His Majesty attaches the most importance to, and you are like this? You've really disappointed me! Your Majesty didn't get angry with you because of Xu Zhao, you should be very glad to be there. ”

Xie Jun looked at Mrs. Yan and just shook his head: "Mother, you don't understand; Ever since I met Ah Zhao, I felt that my life was meaningful. Mother, I don't want to be your pawn anymore, this time I hope I can marry the person I love. ”

"Wen Yuan, you are still young now, you don't understand at all; Love is the least valuable thing. Mrs. Yan told Xie Jun with the experience of someone who had come over.

"Mother, if it really doesn't matter, then why does my father regret it so far? Why did my father keep turning a blind eye to Yun Ci and Zerong? Isn't it because the queen mother snatched love with a knife and ruined his father's marriage? Xie Jun also ignored it completely.

These words made Mrs. Yan shocked, and her expression changed: "Who did you listen to this?" If your father hears this, will you die? Don't say anything like this in the future, otherwise, you can just look at Xie Yunci. "Who in the palace dares to mention those old things from the past, and those who don't want to die have long been dead.

The corners of Xie Jun's mouth twitched slightly, and he lowered his head and did not speak.

Madam Yan sighed and said, "Besides, since you know what happened to your father and emperor in the past, you should know that there are too many people who can't help themselves. If one day you don't have to be controlled by others anymore, no one will stop you from being with whoever you want to be with. Wen Yuan, you are the eldest son of the emperor, you are the king of Qi, and your princess must be a woman from the eight tribes of the Central Plains; If you marry a woman from a humble background as a concubine, it will be difficult for you to order the woman to worship in the future, and let the wives of the eight tribes of the Central Plains salute a Xilin woman. Perhaps sensing that her words would indeed make Xie Jun unacceptable, she slowed down her tone and said, "If you have to be with the Xu family, I can't stop you, but it is also a fact that she is not qualified to be your concubine." You can marry the daughter of the Ji family as the princess of Qi, I heard that the daughter of the Ji family is very gentle and virtuous, and she will definitely be able to tolerate the Xu family. You see, this is the only way to do it today. ”

"But what about winning?" Xie Jun hesitated.

"Bengu said that it wasn't done by Bengu. Xu Zhao is your person after all, and that thing was also searched out in your house, if you are not careful, it may implicate you, how can this palace harm you! This palace has long said that there are too many people who want her life in the royal capital, and you can't guard against it. "Mrs. Yan looks like a loving mother who I am completely for your good," or perhaps, this incident is also a lesson for your father to teach you a lesson. As long as you satisfy your father, maybe this time the matter will be over. ”

Father's ······ But how? Xie Jun still felt that it was in the clouds.

Reprimanded by Mrs. Yan's teachings, Xie Jun was still a little confused when he left Mrs. Yan's palace, but he just stood on the stairs and sighed for a long time, still heading towards Hanyuan Palace.

The guards came to report to Mrs. Yan, and Mrs. Yan just shook her head with a sad expression after hearing this: "Let him go, I can't control it." ”

Xie Jun came to Hanyuan Palace to ask to see Emperor Cheng Ji, Emperor Cheng Ji let him in, and when he saw him, he knew Xie Jun's intention: "Wen Yuan, you are here for the woman named Xu Zhao, right?" ”

Xie Jun knelt down and bowed: "Father, Erchen and Miss Xu Zhao really love each other, please ask Father to allow us to be together." ”

"Wen Yuan, are you really willing to give up everything for Xu Zhao? Do you know what you mean by what you say? Emperor Cheng Ji asked him.

"Father, son, son······" Xie Jun remembered what his mother said to him again, and he struggled in his heart for a long time before he relentlessly said, "Erchen obeys all the arrangements of his father, and only asks his father to let Ah Zhao go." ”

Emperor Cheng Ji just looked at Xie Jun indifferently, and only after a long time did he show a disappointed look: "Wen Yuan, one day, you will regret it." ”

What the? Xie Jun glanced up at Emperor Cheng Ji in disbelief, and hurriedly lowered his head and didn't dare to speak.

"But, tell me, why is it Xu Zhao? No matter who the woman you like, I will fulfill you, but Xu Zhao, no. If you have to marry Xu Zhao, I can only let you go to Qizhou. Emperor Cheng Ji was silent for a long time before he said slowly.

If he goes to the fiefdom, it means that he will never have the throne again.

Xie Jun did not hesitate to thank Tianen: "The son of the emperor Xie Father is complete." ”

Emperor Cheng Ji's face did not change, but he was a little more relaxed than Fang Cai: "Since you are determined to do so, I will do what you want." Xu Zhao, I would rather believe that she is a good girl, and you treat her well; If I know that you dare to harsh your wife in Qizhou, I will not spare you. ”

Unexpectedly, Emperor Cheng Ji suddenly said this, and Xie Jun once again thanked the emperor for his grace.
