Chapter 223: Proton, Keep a Low Profile (45)
As soon as these words came out, the prince's face suddenly changed, and then he slapped the table and stood up, stared at Ye Xi with cold eyes, and said sharply: "Come on, send the fifth prince out!" ”
I saw a little guy appear outside the door, and seeing that the atmosphere in the living room was wrong, he didn't dare to enter the door rashly, nor did he dare to make a sound, just stood there silently.
Seeing that the prince was annoyed and angry, Ye Xi did not linger any longer, but left slowly.
As soon as he walked out of the front hall, there was the sound of a broken teacup behind him, and he couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth, and without lingering, he strode away.
"Your Highness, are you alright?"
At this time, the guards who rushed to hear the sound saw the prince's angry look on his face, and said cautiously.
The prince swept the guards with cold eyes, and said in a deep voice: "The fifth prince is gone? ”
"Yes, it's gone!" The guard replied.
The prince's eyes darkened, and he quickly removed the look on his face, and sat upright, returning to normal, as if everything just now was just an illusion.
"How's that going?" The prince continued.
When the guard heard this, he looked around left and right, and when he saw that there was no one, he continued: "Everything is ready, just waiting for His Highness's order!" ”
The corners of the prince's mouth hooked, and a happy color appeared on his face, and then he said: "Okay! It's been a few days! ”
Ye Xi returned to the Five Princes' Mansion from the prince, it was already three poles in the sun, and Qingyu had already gotten up, but when she saw that there was no one in the room, she went to ask the people in the mansion, but learned that he went out early in the morning, Qingyu couldn't help frowning, and secretly wondered where he would go.
But at this moment, Ye Xi returned home.
Qingyu was about to go back to the backyard, but she didn't expect to see Ye Xi returning home, she couldn't help but step forward and asked, "I heard that you went out, where did you go?" Did you go to find out about the killer? ”
The corners of Ye Xi's mouth hooked slightly, and he said lightly: "I haven't even eaten breakfast yet, are you sure you want to ask this first?" ”
"Why haven't you eaten yet? I'm going to tell someone to get it! ”
Qingyu muttered in a low voice, then turned around to leave.
But at this moment, Ye Xi suddenly reached out and grabbed Qingyu's wrist.
Groov.
Qingyu's footsteps paused, and her heartbeat accelerated sharply, and she was stunned in place, not daring to move a step.
At this time, passing by the people nearby, when they saw this scene, their faces changed, and they didn't dare to pause in the slightest and left in a hurry, but even so, they still looked back at the two of them from time to time.
The prince actually held hands with Proton, and it seems that their relationship is really as rumored.
Qingyu gently broke away from Ye Xi's hand and said in a low voice, "What are you doing?" So many people, what should I do when I see it? ”
Ye Xi didn't care and said, "What can you do if you see it?" I know who you are! ”
"But they don't know, they just think you're immoral!"
Qingyu replied.
Ye Xi chuckled, "Do you think this king cares?" Let's go, go to the room! ”
When Qingyu heard the sound, her face suddenly became hot, her face turned red, she wanted to speak and stopped, her heart was beating nonstop, what did he ask her to go back to the room for in broad daylight? For a while, Qingyu had a lot of thoughts in her head, but every thought made her cheeks hot.
Ye Xi swept over Qingyu and noticed her strange appearance, and couldn't help frowning, "What's wrong with you?" Why is my face so red? ”
Hearing this, Qingyu's face was a little cramped, and she hurriedly turned around, avoiding Ye Xi's scrutiny, and said, "It's okay, it's just a little hot!" ”
Ye Xi looked puzzled, and whispered to himself: "Is it hot?" ”
"I'm hot!" Qingyu replied casually, and strode forward, not daring to stay with Ye Xi any longer.
I'm afraid that when the time comes, those thoughts in my heart will be even more uncontrollable.
If Ye Xi knows, I'm afraid that she will laugh at her dirty thoughts.
A short time later, the two returned to their room.
Ye Xi closed the door and walked straight towards Qingyu, this time, he would never let her escape again.
"Tell me, what the hell do you think?"
Ye Xi said with a straight face, his deep eyes stared at Qingyu, and he didn't move away for a moment, not letting go of any look on her face.
Qingyu looked dazed, stared at Ye Xi in confusion, and said, "What? ”
"I want you to restore your daughter!"
Suddenly, Ye Xi said, his eyes were full of expectation.
Qingyu was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said, "Why?" ”
Ye Rhino looked awkward, and said in a deep voice: "Because I want to be close to you openly!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Qingyu's face turned red and opened her mouth, but she couldn't say a word for a long time, so she could only look at Ye Xi blankly.
At this time, Ye Xi suddenly took a step forward, stretched out his long arm, and directly hugged Qingyu in his arms.
Qingyu's body suddenly froze, leaning on Ye Xi's chest, not daring to move, her heart was beating wildly, and even she couldn't figure out what the reason was.
"You should know what I mean by now, right? I want to marry you, so you have to be reinstated as a woman! Ye Xi continued, his deep tone constantly echoing in Qingyu's ears, as if with a special magic power, which made people unconsciously immersed in it.
Qingyu didn't say anything, but soon, she came back to her senses and said, "No, if you let people know that Qing Riguo's proton is a woman, then I will die!" ”
She doesn't want to die yet!
But Ye Xi was suddenly overjoyed, and stared at Qingyu quite excitedly: "So you are willing to restore your daughter's body?" ”
Qingyu was silent, this is not a big deal, anyway, she is tired of pretending to be a man, so it is better to be a woman and be more comfortable.
"What can you do?"
Qingyu did not answer the rhetorical question.
Ye Xi didn't say anything, but hugged Qingyu tightly in his arms, and after a long while, he let go of her, and said softly: "Don't worry, this king will find a way to this matter, you just need to prepare well to get married!" ”
Hearing this, Qingyu's face turned red and retorted: "Who said that I want to marry you?" ”
Ye Xi's expression was grim, and he said in a deep voice: "Who else do you want to marry besides this king?" ”
Qing Yumo, think about it carefully, it seems that he is the most handsome, not a loss!
"Okay then, I'll reluctantly promise you!" Qingyu thought about it and pretended to be calm.
Ye Xi stared at Qingyu with a happy face, and even a smile appeared in his eyes, "Since that's the case, then it's decided!" ”
Qingyu nodded.
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door outside the house, breaking the harmonious picture.
"Lord Wang, please enter the palace immediately, something happened in the palace!"
Hearing this, Ye Xi's face sank, and he said coldly: "What's wrong?" ”
The person outside the door paused, and then said, "It seems to be ...... It's the emperor who can't do it! ”
"What?" Ye Xi suddenly let go of Qingyu, then turned around and walked out of the room, and left the house without saying a word.
Qingyu turned to look outside the house, staring at the back of Ye Xi leaving, but a bad premonition rose in her heart.
The emperor's body is so tough, why can't he suddenly do it? Isn't that weird? It was only a few days since the previous birthday banquet, and the emperor was fine at that time, but after a few days, it didn't work, and there must be a problem.
When Ye Xi arrived at the emperor's bedroom, the hall was already full of people.
Among them, the crown prince was kneeling beside the bed, and the rest were kneeling at a distance.
Ye Xi hurriedly walked through the crowd, walked straight to the emperor's side, and then squatted on the side of the bed, and said in a deep voice: "How are you?" ”
The emperor was already dying, with a sallow face, like an old man who was about to die.
"Imperial Doctor, if you don't diagnose the emperor, what are you doing?"
Ye Xi scolded in a deep voice, but the imperial doctor on the side drooped his head one by one, not daring to say anything at all.
At this time, the emperor slowly opened his eyes, and when he saw Ye Xi, he couldn't help but show a faint smile, and said in a low voice: "Old Five, you are here, my father knows that I am sorry for you, but I hope you will be fine from now on!" I don't ask you to forgive your father, but don't be tormented by resentment! ”
After saying a long paragraph, the emperor coughed incessantly.
Ye Xi squatted on the side, not saying a word, but his face was extremely ugly.
At the beginning, his mother also died in front of him like this, but the emperor didn't even look at it, and he was still the culprit, but now, looking at him like this, the resentment in his heart seems to be gone.
"Tell me, who is trying to kill you?" Ye Xi said in a deep voice.
The emperor's breath became weaker and weaker, and the crown prince said in a timely voice: "Old five, you will let your father and emperor finish this last journey quietly!" ”
Ye Xi didn't pay attention to the prince at all, and was eager to ask the real murderer, because he didn't believe that he was not victimized.
The emperor didn't say anything, but he laboriously took out a box and handed it to Ye Xi.
"Collect ...... Take it! ”
The Emperor uttered a word with difficulty, then closed his eyes and lost his breath.
Ye Xi took the box, his brows furrowed, and he didn't make a sound.
When the prince saw it, his expression changed greatly, his face was very ugly, his eyes were staring at the box in Ye Xi's hand, and a thick sense of jealousy welled up in his chest.
Decree!
The father actually gave the jade seal to the fifth child, what did he mean.
He is the crown prince, if his father dies, then he will be the new emperor who is rightfully named, but now his father has given the jade seal that symbolizes his status to the fifth child, does he want him to be the emperor? No way! He absolutely does not allow it!
In the afternoon of the same day, the death knell was heard in the palace, and the emperor died, and the whole country mourned.
And when the emperor dies, a new emperor will inevitably be chosen.
Originally, this position belonged to the prince, but now because the fifth prince has the jade seal of the country in his hand, two factions have been formed in the court, one is to support the prince, the other is to support the five princes, and of course there are a small number of people, no one stands.
So, there was a quarrel in the court.
The ministers below quarreled, but the crown prince and the fifth prince, who were the parties concerned, were silent and didn't seem to care about this matter at all.
But at this time, the prince suddenly said: "Old Five, it seems that you are determined to compete with this prince for the throne!" ”
Ye Xi slowly raised his eyes, his cold eyes swept over the prince, and said coldly: "How did my father die?" ”
The prince's eyes darkened, and his expression was a little cramped, but it was only a blink of an eye that returned to normal, and then said: "The imperial doctor said that my father was assassinated!" Prince Ben is sending someone to investigate! ”
