Chapter 39: The Prisoner of Tichin
Ling Zixu bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the minister knows what King Lu told me, early this morning, King Lu brought thirty gold armor guards and broke into the palace of Pingnan Palace, asking the minister to hand over Chen Meiyu, the princess of Chen State, Chen Meiyu is a prisoner, there is no holy decree, the minister is difficult to obey, but the king of Lu does not forgive, the minister has to come to face the saint, and hope that His Majesty will be the master of the minister!" ”
Si Chong glanced at Si Jue and sneered.
"No wonder, you came to me to borrow the golden armor guards on the fifth watchday, saying that it was to be used to support the façade, and said a lot of high-sounding words, it turned out that you were going to break into the Pingnan Wangfu and threaten the Pingnan King!"
Si Jue's face was stunned, and he shouted: "Father, he Ling Zixu is full of lies and bullying the king, you don't blame him, but blame your sons?" ”
"He deceived the king, what evidence do you have?"
"Evidence?" Si Jue sneered, "Chen Meiyu is the evidence, a princess of an enemy country, a captive, it is her blessing for her sons to accept her, Ling Zixu lied in front of her sons for her own selfish interests, saying that Chen Meiyu is a dominatrix, ugly and fierce, and also set up a bureau in his palace, and dressed Chen Meiyu as an ugly monster to scare his ministers, and his sons fell for him, and His Majesty also fell for his ....... ”
Si Chong listened, and thought in his heart, yes, Ling Zixu had said this in front of him at the beginning, Chen Meiyu was not as beautiful as rumored, could he really lie, why did he lie.
So, Si Chong's cold eyes looked at Ling Zixu, but Ling Zixu's face did not change and he was very calm.
Si Chong asked: "Ling Zixu, I remember that you once said that Princess Chen Guo had a mediocre appearance and a tyrannical temperament, and now Si Jue said that you lied and wanted to sue you for the crime of bullying the king, I only asked you, did you deceive the king?" ”
Ling Zixu pounced and knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, Chen Meiyu is a prisoner of our country, of course you can't treat prisoners like ordinary people, you can't eat enough, your clothes are not warm, there are also people, she looks unkempt every day, and the minister really can't see the slightest beauty ......, and besides, King Lu has also seen Chen Meiyu's true face, but now he has to slander the minister, the minister is really wronged!" ”
Ling Zixu's expression changed, a dignified man, it turned out to be Ai Ai Ai looking at Emperor Si Chong.
Si Chong glanced at Ling Zixu who was kneeling in front of him, and then at Si Jue who was standing there angrily, and judged in his heart which of the two people in front of him had lied.
I didn't want Feng Guifei to be next to her, but she sneered.
"You...... What to laugh at? Si Chong looked at Feng Guifei.
Feng Guifei cocked her orchid finger and played with the fan in her hand.
"I laughed at the two princes in front of me, who earned a red face for a woman, like crickets in a cage!"
"Yes!" Si Chong snorted coldly, "I don't care about my identity at all, I am a dignified prince, but like a folk evildoer, one wants my golden armor guard to serve as a façade, and the other is probably not a good master, and he will definitely not suffer......"
Some sarcastic words came out of the mouth of Emperor Si Chong, and Ling Zixu and Si Jue were so ashamed that their faces were red and white for a while, and their faces were a little unbearable.
Feng Guifei smiled again: "Your Majesty's words are serious, the two princes are embarrassed, in fact, the key to this matter is that the prisoner Chen Meiyu, the concubine is very curious, I don't know what kind of appearance of the city and the country, turning our King Lu upside down, and I don't know what kind of stunning color, so that our great hero King Pingnan can't care about anything in order to protect her......"
"That's right!" Si Chong took a few shots and shouted, "Bring that Chen Meiyu over, you can understand it at a glance, someone is ......."
Si Chong shouted.
Ling Zixu's eyebrows trembled: "Your Majesty, slow down!" ”
"What, you want to stop it?"
Si Chong's sharp eyes swept over.
Ling Zixu stubbornly said, "It's a little troublesome to mention Chen Meiyu...... The minister must go to ...... in person."
"Father and emperor can't ......," Si Jue hurriedly said, "If he goes, I don't know what to do, either to ruin Chen Meiyu's appearance, or to use cross-dressing, he won't get the truth, Ling Zixu is scheming!" ”
Si Chong sneered: "Ling Zixu, do you really want to go in person?" ”
Ling Zixu glanced at Si Jue: "I don't want His Royal Highness King Lu to misunderstand the minister so much, so the minister won't go, I wish the general to be on duty today, only if he goes, can he be foolproof!" ”
"Wishing Stardust? He used to be your subordinate......" Si Chong groaned.
"Yes, he is a subordinate of the minister in the past, so the minister understands his ability, but he is also a courtier of His Majesty, doesn't Your Majesty even believe in his own courtiers?"
Si Chong snorted coldly: "Okay, pass the decree, and wish Xingchen to go to Pingnan Wangfu to bring Chen Meiyu to see ......."
Si Chong made a will, and there was an attendant to pass it on, and soon, Zhu Xingchen received the message.
Zhu Xingchen led fifty royal forest troops and came to the Pingnan Palace.
When Wei Feng heard the news, the two whispered a few words, and Wei Feng hurried away.
After a while, the side door of Pingnan Wangfu opened, and a four-person sedan chair was lifted out.
Fifty royal forest troops surrounded the small sedan chair and left the Pingnan Palace.
The sedan chair was carried directly to the palace, and Zhu Xingchen escorted it to the gate of Zhenxu Palace with the Imperial Forest Army.
After a while, the inner supervisor shouted: "Chen Meiyu has come to see ......"
There was a sound of chains in the small sedan chair, the sedan curtain was raised, and a girl in cloth came down.
The gray earth-colored coarse cloth shirt, without powder, has a black waterfall-like green silk, casually draped up to the waist.
She was wearing heavy flails on her body, shackles on her feet, iron balls on her wrists, and wooden shackles on her wrists, which bound her hands.
The Imperial Forest Army stood outside the palace gate, and Zhu Xingchen took two lieutenants and escorted the Qin prisoner into the Zhenxu Palace.
In the Zhenxu Palace, the majestic emperor sat in the hall, and the graceful and luxurious concubine sat on one side.
There were two princes standing in the hall, swords rattling, each refusing to give in.
When the prisoner Chen Meiyu appeared in front of everyone, the reactions of several people became wonderful in an instant.
Emperor Shu was the most quiet, his sharp cold eyes swept over, and from a distance, the heavy flail prisoners who came in, the simple coarse cloth clothes, and the eyebrows were quite delicate, and the concubines and beauties he saw every day with heavy makeup and gorgeous clothes were thousands of miles away, not the same day.
Feng Guifei was originally playing with the peony fan in her hand, and when she saw the female prisoner in the heavy flail, she thought it was very interesting, and then looked at the appearance of the female prisoner, not only gasped.
Women look at women, eyes are the most poisonous, although the woman in front of her is dressed in coarse cloth clothes, but the temperament is extraordinary, as the so-called, natural carving, clear water out of hibiscus, there is an indescribable charm.
Lu Wang Sijue was originally facing Emperor Shu, but when he heard the inner supervisor Xuanjin, he turned around, and the scene in his eyes made him happy, and he was secretly shocked in his heart, you Ling Zixu, you hide it from me!
