Chapter 327: The Past
Xia Chutao looked at Zhao Shuangzhu a little stunned, as if things were getting more and more mysterious.
"What do you mean by that?"
Xia Chutao narrowed his eyes, according to Zhao Shuangzhu's words, he still has something to do with the throne of Beizhao?
Zhao Shuangzhu just sighed,
"Looks like you really didn't know anything, and you got caught here in such a daze."
Xia Chutao blinked her eyes, naturally she didn't know what Zhao Shuangzhu was referring to, she was arrested without knowing anything.
"There is still a reason for this, probably why His Majesty has to get rid of you."
During this period of time, Zhao Shuangzhu has been in the palace of Beizhao for a long time, and he also knows a lot about the palace of Beizhao, so he still knows a little.
She looked around cautiously, making sure that there was no one before whispering to Xia Chutao.
"This can be regarded as a forbidden thing to talk about in the Beizhao Palace, when the empress was still the queen before, she only had one child with the former emperor, and that was you. At that time, His Majesty was now in the harem, and almost no other children were born. ”
"But then one day the emperor got seriously ill and had been lingering on the sickbed, and the national affairs gradually fell into the hands of His Majesty, and at that time it was also the time when she gradually gathered her own power, and on the night of His Majesty's death, it was rumored in the palace that the little princess also had the same emergency as His Majesty."
Saying that, Zhao Shuangzhu's expression became subtle, and Xia Chutao also vaguely knew what was going on.
"It didn't take long for Your Majesty to inherit the throne as a matter of course. Beizhao did not say that women were not allowed to enter politics, so the reason for the story here, you should taste it carefully. ”
Xia Chutao's heart sank, he didn't expect this matter to be like this.
"That means ...... Her Majesty was anxious to find me, and wanted to kill me for no reason, because he thought I would threaten her position? ”
Zhao Shuangzhu knew that Xia Chutao had always been an understanding person, so naturally she didn't need to say more about such things.
"Exactly."
Xia Chutao only felt embarrassed, she had never been interested in the throne or anything like that, not to mention that she had always felt that she was an ordinary person before this, how did she know that she still had such an identity on her body?
"I originally just thought that I was just an ordinary person, if it weren't for His Majesty looking for me to come to Beizhao, I would never have known such a thing, how could I threaten Your Majesty?"
Xia Chutao really felt that Liu Xuanying had overreacted to this matter.
"If you think so, Your Majesty may not think so. Her Majesty has always been a cautious person, and she sat tremblingly on the throne of Beizhao, naturally wanting to get rid of any forces that might affect her. ”
Saying that, Zhao Shuangzhu took Xia Chutao's hand, and his face was slowly worried about Xia Chutao.
"I just thought that you saved my life, and I didn't want you to fold it in her hands like this, so I told you these things."
"Your Majesty has always been a ruthless person, and he will do whatever he wants. You still have to go back and forth with her in this matter, and maybe there is some room to turn back. ”
Xia Chutao did see this from Liu Xuanying, a person who can attack his children for his own unification, such a ruthless woman is the one who can afford such a career, otherwise, there will not be so few empresses in Beizhao.
"Later, it is estimated that His Majesty will summon you, there are some taboos, I must make it clear to you."
Xia Chutao just listened quietly, and then heard Zhao Shuangzhu say to her.
"Your Majesty has always been a person with a strong personality, the most annoying thing to hear is questioning and doubting, you must be humble when talking to Your Majesty, otherwise if you anger Your Majesty, it will be easy to invite yourself to death."
Xia Chutao recalled her behavior in the stone prison, no wonder Liu Xuanying seemed to be looking at her unpleasantly, in the end, it was the empress, and the shelf on her body was so big.
"Good...... Thank you. ”
Xia Chutao is still very grateful that Zhao Shuangzhu came to him to say this at this time.
"Nothing, it's all about repaying you for saving my life, that's all I can do for you."
Zhao Shuangzhu said and took out a food box and put it in front of Xia Chutao,
"I know that you may not be at ease with the food in the Beizhao Palace, I will personally bring you some food, these are my usual favorite snacks, I don't know what you like to eat...... You just let it go, and when you are hungry, you can use it to satisfy your hunger. ”
Xia Chutao saw that Zhao Shuangzhu was so well prepared, and her heart was even more grateful.
"That's all I can do, in the end, because of the identity of the Nine Emperor Princes, it is inconvenient for me to act. If it brings any calamity to the Nine Emperor Princes, it is mine. ”
Zhao Shuangzhu naturally has his own hardships, and it is not that Xia Chutao can't understand it.
Xia Chutao still looked at Zhao Shuangzhu gratefully,
"I know, you've done your best to help me, and I remember everything you said."
"Well, I really can't stay here for too long, it's suspicious, so I'll go first."
Saying that, Zhao Shuangzhu got up, and Xia Chutao also stood up with Zhao Shuangzhu, wanting to send Zhao Shuangzhu out. But Zhao Shuangzhu stopped Xia Chutao,
"You don't have to send me, you're also under house arrest here, it's inconvenient, if you act too closely, I'm afraid it will also cause bad trouble, you just stay in the room."
Xia Chutao felt that what Zhao Shuangzhu said was also very reasonable, so she nodded at Zhao Shuangzhu.
"Then I won't send it, and you have to be careful yourself. Today's kindness, if he has the opportunity to do the same, I will find a way to repay you. ”
"Hmm."
Time is also urgent, Zhao Shuangzhu didn't say anything to Xia Chutao, and after saying this, he opened the door and went out.
After Zhao Shuangzhu left, the whole room was deserted again.
Xia Chutao looked at the food box in front of him steadily, and then opened it, looking at all kinds of beautifully decorated food inside, and suddenly felt a little hungry.
During this time, she was locked up here, she didn't know where she was, she was unfamiliar with her life, and she didn't know anyone who walked by in front of her, plus Liu Xuanying's killing intent towards her was so great that she didn't eat much of the peach at the beginning of the summer.
I have to say that Zhao Shuangzhu is really careful about this, and the moment he saw these eating points, Xia Chutao really felt the hunger in his stomach.
Just as the peach at the beginning of summer picked up a delicious snack and was about to eat, he saw the maid who had been standing next to him just now, looking at his own food with his eyes.
When Xia Chutao's eyes passed, she hurriedly took it away.
Xia Chutao looked at the dim sum held in the chopsticks in his hand, and then looked at the maid who lowered her head again, and asked cautiously.
"Are you hungry too?"
Xia Chutao felt that this maid's inability to speak was deliberately arranged by her side, so Xia Chutao had no way to inquire from her mouth.
But this maid barely left Xia Chutao's sight, and Xia Chutao remembered that she didn't seem to have eaten anything.
The maid raised her head slightly, looked at Xia Chutao with some caution, and didn't seem to dare to respond to her words.
Xia Chutao also knew that this maid was worried at this time, so she said to this maid.
"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone, as long as you don't tell others about the Nine Emperor Concubines who came to me today and said something to me."
But the maid was still silent, and it seemed that she didn't intend to respond to Xia Chutao's words.
"Come and eat, you have the strength to continue to look at me after eating."
Xia Chutao said that he first sandwiched a piece and put it in his mouth, not to mention, although this snack Xia Chutao has not seen it in Dawan, but it is really delicious, Xia Chutao felt that his eyes were straight.
She immediately smiled and said to the servant,
"It's delicious, come and eat, don't be inhibited, really."
Xia Chutao waved to this maid enthusiastically, but she was stunned when she saw this maid.
In the end, this maid was still moved by Xia Chutao's words, and came to the table with some caution, but was directly pulled by Xia Chutao and sat beside him.
She was a little panicked, but Xia Chutao didn't let her get up.
Xia Chutao hurriedly gave her clothes, dishes and chopsticks, and then said to this servant with a wry smile.
"Hey, let me tell you, I don't know how long my life lasts, but I'm locked up in this room alone, and I really feel panicked. If you can stay with me, you can do a good thing before I die. ”
When the maid heard Xia Chutao actually say such a thing, she looked at Xia Chutao fixedly, her pupils trembled, and she seemed to be very surprised by Xia Chutao's words.
"So you better hurry up and eat."
Xia Chutao said that she would put the food into this maid's bowl, but she kept holding the bowl and was stunned, as if she didn't think of why Xia Chutao would treat herself like this.
"Eat, don't be stunned, I know you're hungry."
Xia Chutao looked at this servant in a daze, and could only urge on the side.
"By the way, do you have a name?"
The servant seemed to come back to her senses, and then shook her head.
When Xia Chutao heard this, he began to think about it with great interest, and then said to this servant,
"Then call you, Yingyu."
The maid froze again, never thinking that Xia Chutao would be able to think of ideas for herself like this.
"Well, do you like it?"
Xia Chutao smiled and asked like this.
The maid didn't know why, her eyes flushed slightly, and then she nodded in agreement.
At the beginning of summer, the peach is happy,
"yes, that's good."
