Chapter 211: Self-Destruction

From the beginning, King Chang accused Lu Xuan on the grounds that the Lu family and the household were biased, but he didn't expect that this would expose his flaws.

Now that he was asked by the head of the household, he was stunned, he couldn't say that he had planted eyeliner in both the Lu Mansion and the household, wouldn't he be suspected of having ulterior motives?

King Chang racked his brains and couldn't come up with an answer, seeing that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were staring at him, so he casually responded, "It's just hearsay."

But such a reason is obviously not enough to prevaricate so many smart people, and some people are about to raise doubts, but Emperor Liang Qin hurriedly diverts the topic-

"There is no need to delve into this matter for the time being, just ask when the Imperial Forest Army goes to the outskirts of Jiangdong to bring back the soldiers and horses."

In this way, King Chang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but after Emperor Liang Qin made arrangements, he looked at him again: "In the future, if you hear from hearsay, you don't need to bring it to the court and make people laugh." ”

Emperor Liang Qin looked disgusted when he said this, King Chang has always wanted to get rid of his name as a "straw bag", and finally his image improved when he was in the prime of face last time, but this time he was directly beaten back to his original form in front of the civil and military officials.

King Chang was so angry in his heart, he originally wanted to take advantage of this matter to take care of Huan Li, but he didn't expect to be put aside by him in the end, and even the army he had worked so hard to cultivate was put into it, and he almost exposed himself.

It was really impossible to steal chickens, and I also lost several handfuls of rice.

However, in front of so many people right now, King Chang can neither provide empirical evidence to continue to slander Lu Xuan, nor is he sure that he will be able to get out of the way.

Seeing that the matter had not yet reached the point of no return, he could only endure the injustice in his heart, and said to Emperor Liang Qin, "The son knows his mistake".

After retiring from the dynasty, the anger in King Chang's heart gradually manifested itself, thinking of the appearance of Fang Cai Hubu Shangshu going against him in every way for Lu Xuan, he couldn't bear it.

As soon as he was far away from the Jinluan Palace, King Chang couldn't help but rush in the direction of Hubu Shangshu: "Stop for His Highness!" ”

In the midst of the anger, Xu is voice was a little louder, and he couldn't help but attract the attention of several officials on the same road.

King Chang didn't care about it, and only relied on his identity as the prince to reprimand to Hubu Shangshu: "You are clearly full of lies, saying who made you go against His Royal Highness!" ”

Hube Shangshu was not angered by this, but responded politely: "Why did Your Highness say this? The officials in the main hall have already explained very clearly, if His Royal Highness does not believe it, he can go and ask Her Royal Highness the eldest princess in person. ”

In this comparison, the conversation and upbringing of the two are simply worlds apart.

"If you don't use the eldest princess to press His Royal Highness, it is clearly an excuse for you to prevaricate your father, and ask this king to go to her in person to ask for verification, why don't you ask her to come and talk to this king in person?"

King Chang looked like he was dancing with his teeth and claws when he spoke, but the Hubu Shangshu in front of him suddenly had a shock in his pupils, and then leaned down.

"Now you want to beg for your Highness's forgiveness? It's late! "King Chang was obviously too self-righteous and misunderstood the intention of the Hubu Shangshu.

After a while, I only heard a sentence from the mouth of the head of the household, "See Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess", but King Chang still looked disapproving: "You old thing, you dare to tease His Highness like this, I am really impatient." ”

King Chang said that he was about to move towards the Hubu Shangshu, but he heard a cold but imposing female voice behind him-"Lord Shangshu is exempt." ”

Just this sound, even if King Chang has lived in Linchuan Mansion for a long time and has not seen this person for a long time, he can recognize it as the eldest princess at once just by virtue of his momentum.

King Chang was stunned for a moment, and his rebellious words instantly ran rapidly in his mind, and he didn't even know how much the eldest princess had heard.

There was silence for a long time with his back to him, until the eldest princess spoke first: "Why, I haven't seen you for a few months, and the imperial nephew doesn't even have a basic etiquette when he sees my aunt?" ”

Questioned by the eldest princess, King Chang came back to his senses, and quickly turned around and saluted her respectfully: "Imperial nephew, imperial nephew see aunt." ”

The stumbling of this short sentence can be judged by the two of them when he reprimanded the head of the household book.

The eldest princess was not in a hurry to let King Chang be exempted, but joked about his high-minded talk first-

"Actually, the emperor's nephew doesn't have to pretend to be so hard in front of the palace, what is the appearance behind the back, it can still be in person, compared to not knowing the etiquette, the palace is more disgusted with those who are two-faced and three-stabbed."

The eldest princess's words showed that she could not fall a word for word to hear King Chang's words.

Shen Xixu's personality can be said to be carved out of the same mold as her mother, but she is still young, has experienced less wind and rain, and lacks the compelling momentum of the eldest princess.

But seeing the eldest princess's attitude towards King Chang at the moment, she could understand why Shen Xixu bluntly called it a "straw bag" in front of Lu Xuan and Luo Mingrang that day.

King Chang was already weak-hearted, but now that the eldest princess was already treating him like this, he was even more panicked, and hurriedly leaned down towards the other party: "

Aunt Mingjian, Fang is the emperor's nephew is anxious for a while, and his mouth is open, if there is any offense, please forgive my aunt. ”

The eldest princess was too lazy to see like a straw bag, she didn't pay attention to what King Chang said, and turned her head to look at Hube Shangshu standing beside him, but the expression on her face was completely different from when she faced King Chang.

"This palace loves her daughter very much, and in a hurry, she used the people of Lord Shangshu, and invited Lord Shangshu Haihan." The eldest princess said.

This is a disguised admission that she did appoint Lu Xuan to go to the eastern suburbs to find Shen Xixu, and when she said this, King Chang was instantly speechless, and he didn't dare to refute it again.

Hubu Shangshu hurriedly responded: "Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is serious, Lu Lingshi can serve Her Royal Highness, it is the luck of the Hubu, as long as His Royal Highness the county lord finds it successfully." ”

The two sang and harmonized, and they were all looked at by several officials on the same road around them, and King Chang, who lost his wife and lost his soldiers, was simply embarrassed.

On the other side, Shen Xixu sacrificed his rare freedom to protect Lu Xuan's life, and now the inn where they lived was surrounded by the guards on the eldest princess's mansion.

Seeing this very depressing scene, Shen Xixu couldn't help but regret it a little, sighed helplessly, and then looked at Lu Xuan with an aggrieved face: "Ah Xuan, let's find a chance to escape." ”

Lu Xuan resolutely refused: "This time I can be safe and sound thanks to the eldest princess's great kindness, how can I be ungrateful?" ”

Shen Xixu was not convinced by this, and she immediately crossed her waist and retorted to Lu Xuan: "What does it mean that she is kind to you, the person who saved you is clearly whether I am good or not, I knew that you were so unrighteous, I should have handed you over to the Imperial Forest Army in the first place." ”

Lu Xuan smiled slightly when he heard this, and looked at the puffed Shen Xixu with a doting expression: "You won't." ”

After getting along for so long, Lu Xuan had already taken Shen Xixu's mind to death.

ridiculed Shen Xixu in this way, and then Lu Xuan pulled her forward: "Let's go, I've had enough fun, it's time to go back and get down to business." ”

Shen Xixu reluctantly followed behind Lu Xuan, he didn't know how many times he scolded her, and Lu Xuan didn't care, anyway, it was better to take Shen Xixu back than to leave it in this unfamiliar place and lose it.

The two of them returned to Shengjing City with the guards sent by the eldest princess.

And Luo Mingrang, as the Dongchang spy secretly sent by Emperor Liang Qin to investigate Gu Huanli, was inconvenient to show up in front of people, so he had to part ways with the two of them.

It wasn't until he returned to the familiar place that Lu Xuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Inexplicably and confusedly, she was sent to a place she had never been to before, and she almost lost her life without even knowing what to do, this account, she really should settle it with Gu Huanli.

Thinking about it this way, as soon as he returned to Shengjing City, Lu Xuan planned to go towards the Fierce King's Mansion.

But before she could leave, she was stopped by the guards of the eldest princess's mansion: "Lu Lingshi is slow, I will be ordered by Her Royal Highness the eldest princess to take Lu Lingshi and His Royal Highness the county lord back to the mansion together." ”

Lu Xuan was stunned when he heard this, and only when he came back to his senses did he point to himself and ask the guard: "Me?" I'm going with you, too? ”

The guard nodded, and Lu Xuan couldn't help but feel guilty: It's over, could it be that I was discovered by her in the name of the eldest princess and wanted to take me back to ask for the guilt?

Lu Xuan thought this was the case, and he didn't dare to step forward again.

Shen Xixu grabbed her, and his expression seemed to be a little happy: "Oh, Ah Xuan, don't be afraid, my mother won't embarrass you, you can go back with me." ”

Seeing that the eldest princess's order was difficult to disobey, and there was Shen Xixu's barrier, Lu Xuan reluctantly agreed, and then followed everyone to the eldest princess's mansion.

At that time, the eldest princess had been waiting in the courtyard for a long time, and as soon as she saw Shen Xixu coming back, she immediately rushed towards her.

This momentum frightened Shen Xixu so much that he even closed his eyes for a while, and he looked like he was ready to be beaten.

Shen Xixu looked at death as if he were at home, and what he didn't expect to wait for was a solid hug.

"You ghost girl, why did you run so far, my mother was worried to death." The eldest princess hugged Shen Xixu and reproached him with love.

Lu Xuan was stunned when she saw this, she always heard Shen Xixu mention how fierce the eldest princess was when she scolded her, but now that she saw it with her own eyes, she also looked like a loving mother.

However, looking at Shen Xixu's own surprised reaction, he knew that such treatment may not be available every time.

Shen Xixu was originally ready to come back after being beaten and scolded, but she didn't expect to face such a scene, she was also a little aggrieved for a while, and then hugged the eldest princess with her backhand and cried to her:

"Mother, I was really scared when I got lost in the eastern suburbs, I was so afraid that I would never see my mother again."

Seeing her daughter so pitiful, what mother is willing to blame again? The eldest princess immediately touched Shen Xixu's hair dotingly and comforted her.
