"The little prince is not yet a year old, and you, who are uncles, are already thinking about how to be a relative who wields power."

Emperor Jianxi's voice was very gentle, as if he was saying that it was raining today, and it was so common to go out with an umbrella.

Qu Xiu tried his best to lower his head and beg for mercy, but the sound of "Your Majesty-" was stuck in his throat, unable to speak, and unable to move.

Outside, the rain was blowing with the wind, and suddenly it became heavier.

The windows on all sides resounded with a roar, and the palace people hurriedly stepped forward to lay down the blinds.

The long wind poured into Emperor Jianxi's two-sleeved wide robe, as if he had the style of an immortal, but the coldness in his voice was even more shocking than that of Yan Luo.

"In front of the sky, Qu Xiu." Emperor Jianxi said in a low voice, "I ask you, which way do you Qu family want to go?" ”

Qu Xiu's face, which had already lost its blood, became even paler at this time.

Qu Xiu: "Minister...... There is no other hope in the minister's heart! ”

"Old man Qu, where is Old Madam Qu?" Emperor Jianxi asked.

Qu Xiu was speechless, so he had to kowtow vigorously and cry, "Your Majesty! My father was cautious all his life, and what a fierce and faithful woman my mother was! When you ask them such words, don't you want them to die! ”

This heart-rending defense didn't even make Emperor Jianxi frown.

It was like a stone thrown into the abyss, and the echo was not heard for a long time.

The room fell silent until Emperor Jianxi called faintly, "Huang Chongde." ”

"The slave is here."

Emperor Jianxi looked at Qu Xiu who was kneeling on the ground and ordered, "You take Qu Xiu back, and then in front of the Qu family, pass on the words I asked just now to the Qu family intact, and let them give me an answer in person." ”

The word "personally" is accented.

Huang Chongde's eyes sank slightly, the emperor is going to knock on the mountain and shake the tiger.

"Yes." Huang Chongde replied as before, without the slightest wave in his tone.

Emperor Jianxi sneered, "Old Madam Qu is a person who has seen a big scene, and she will not die at every turn." ”

Qu Xiu's eyes turned red in an instant.

Emperor Jianxi said, "If it is not summoned in the future, the Qu family will not have to come to this Chengqian Palace again; So far, all their letters have been collected, and I will go through them myself. ”

"Yes." Huang Chongde nodded, "Then the daily communication between the concubine and the mother's family, do you want to stop?" ”

"Stop, keep passing." Emperor Jianxi said coldly, "In the future, every day of the family letter, a copy will be sent to the Heart Cultivation Palace." ”

"Yes." Huang Chongde said.

"As for you," Emperor Jianxi looked at Qu Xiu coldly, "I don't feel at ease if you let someone like you take care of the food in the palace." Take off this official skin and go home to reflect on it. ”

Qu Xiu closed his eyes tremblingly, and knelt down to thank the emperor.

After this series of orders, everyone present shuddered when they heard it.

This Chengqian Palace seems to be about to change the sky.

After a short time, the imperial doctors prescribed prescriptions together, explained a few precautions for recuperation, and left first.

Huang Chongde also led Qu Xiu out of the door, the rain curtain was heavy outside, Qu Xiu stumbled, and Huang Chongde on the side was not yet on the side.

Bai Ling stood there and watched Qu Xiu leave, but at this time she had no energy to think about anything else, she only felt that her limbs were very weak, and she urgently needed to find a place to lie down.

But Emperor Jianxi's words are obviously not finished.

"If the concubine wants the child to be with Concubine Ning, then put it with Concubine Ning." Emperor Jianxi said, "Her child is always her child, and she will not become Concubine Ning's child just because she has spent a year and a half in Xianfu Palace." ”

The palace people in the room all responded timidly, "Yes." ”

Emperor Jianxi sighed very softly, and his gaze fell on Bai Ling in the corner again.

Today's situation on the palace wall, he has already heard Bao Yuan and Zheng Shu talk about it roughly.

If it weren't for Bai Ling's presence, I'm afraid that the concubine would have died today.

Even in retrospect, this incident made Emperor Jianxi a little afraid.

Everyone looked at Bai Ling with their spare eyes, with both fear and envy in their hearts - in this palace, sometimes danger and opportunity are things that happen in a blink of an eye, and some people are lost for it, and some people can thrive because of it.

Now...... Bai Ling is probably going to be rewarded, everyone thought to themselves.

Emperor Jianxi really walked up to Bai Ling again, leaned over slightly, and his voice was as calm as before.

"Do you really think I can't kill you?"

Everyone quickly retracted their gaze and lay lower than before. No one would have expected that Emperor Jianxi would ask such a thing at this time. The wrath of the Son of Heaven is sometimes the shedding of millions of corpses...... Sometimes, it's a silent place to hear thunder.

People can't figure out the situation anymore, so they can only close their eyes, close their ears, and don't listen or think about anything.

Then pray that things don't ripple again.

Bai Ling's expression was still the same, she leaned down and bowed, and replied calmly, "You want to take my life, there are 11,000 ways to achieve your goal." As long as I am still in the world, my life will be in the hands of the saints. The emperor naturally knows this best. ”

"But I had to say that, Your Majesty." Although Bai Ling's voice was tired, it was still safe, "After all, it was too urgent at that time, and I didn't have time to worry about my motive for entering the palace with Niangniang. Moreover, even so, everything I said at that time was the truth, and there was no deception in the slightest. If you don't believe it, the emperor can send someone to look over the laws of the Great Zhou. ”

Emperor Jianxi snorted.

He looked down at Bai Ling, and after listening to this explanation, Emperor Jianxi realized that the set of threats he had just wanted to move out was only afraid that it would not be useful.

The stick that was originally bent on falling down and beating suddenly had no reason to appear.

Emperor Jianxi smiled a little negatively.

Everyone looked at Emperor Jianxi, who was laughing, and felt more and more terrifying in their hearts. If you don't say that the companion is like a tiger, no one can really touch the pulse of the Long Live Lord.

There was a moment of silence in the room, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on everyone's backs.

"You have merit, receive the reward." Emperor Jianxi suddenly said, his voice was indifferent, "What do you want?" ”

It was then that everyone's hearts really fell. He just punished Qu Xiu, and now he wants to reward this Bai Ling, the emperor has made a punishment and reward.

This shows more or less that the tone of this matter should be set, and everything will end here, and there will be no other rambling involvement.

Otherwise, even if this newcomer can survive it, they won't be able to survive it.

Just when the palace people in the Chengqian Palace were relieved, thinking that this level was over, Bai Ling also raised his head.

"Your Majesty, can I ask for anything?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone raised their throats and eyes in one breath!

What kind of deadly medicine is this!

What can and what can't she want, doesn't she count it in her own heart?

What about when this is a bargain at the wet market?

Emperor Jianxi also glanced at Bai Ling more, and at this time, the words he was used to hearing should be "This is a matter within the slave and maid", "The ministers are afraid", and no matter how bad it is, it should be "Thank Your Majesty for your grace".

What do you mean - "Can I ask for anything?" ”
