Chapter 396: Don't Let Me Down
The ballroom was brightly lit, and light shone through the transparent windows and cracks in the doors, illuminating a small area outside. It can be said that if the people who were locked up in this banquet hall in order to isolate the cold air outside, they would not know that the sky outside was already pitch black. In fact, even if they knew, it would be in vain, because under the emperor's gaze, even if there was no door, none of them dared to move a little in the direction of the door, let alone go out!
At this moment, everyone's life is not easy. And Xuanyuan Yichen, this is especially true.
The passage of time bit by bit is actually a short period of effort, but in Xuanyuan Yichen's opinion, it is almost as sad as a year. Dongfang Ze finally raised his head and looked at him, his furrowed brows showed no signs of relief, but shook his head gently.
Xuanyuan Yichen suddenly felt that his whole heart felt as if he had been squeezed hard, and even his breathing was about to be blocked, and he shouted helplessly at Dongfang Ze: "What the hell is going on, you say it!" ”
Dongfang Ze kept silent, and first escaped a small bottle from himself, Xuanyuan Yichen recognized it, it was a porcelain bottle he gave Liu Qingyan like a pill for fetal sustenance, but he was sure that Liu Qingyan's bottle had always been in his collection, and he didn't see when Dongfang Ze had searched Liu Qingyan's body, presumably he had always carried one with him. It seems that he is really concerned and cares about Liu Qingyan, and is even very considerate.
Now is not the time to think nonsense, Xuanyuan Yichen only saw Dongfang Ze open the lid, poured two pills out of the bottle in a row, and stuffed them into Liu Qingyan's mouth at one time, Xiao Yue also quickly stood up and brought a tea bowl from the table, Xuanyuan Yichen took out a free hand and fed the tea bowl to Liu Qingyan's lips. Fortunately, Liu Qingyan was able to drink the water by himself, and then swallowed it together with the two pills.
Xuanyuan Yichen could finally feel a little more at ease, but when he thought that Dongfang Ze had said that taking one pill a day of this medicine was enough, but he gave her two pills at one time today, Xuanyuan Yichen became more and more uneasy. Seeing that Liu Qingyan seemed to have fallen into a coma again, he couldn't help but look at Dongfang Ze again and asked, "Can you tell me, what happened to Qingyan?" ”
Dongfang Ze opened his mouth and gently spit out two words: "Go home!" ”
Xuanyuan Yichen was stunned for a moment, and quickly reacted, Liu Qingyan's situation may be very serious, but with Dongfang Ze here, nothing will happen to her. It's just that the situation in front of them is very dangerous, so it's better for them to hurry back to the Xianwang Mansion and wait until a safe place to treat Liu Qingyan, which is the best!
"Your Majesty, the courtiers are brave, Qingyan suddenly feels unwell, please allow the courtiers to go back to the house with Qingyan first!" Xuanyuan Yichen was still kneeling on the ground, and at this time, he kowtowed to the ground and pleaded.
Today's matter is not over yet, the emperor hasn't even scolded a few more words, he actually doesn't want Xuanyuan Yichen to leave unharmed like this. But if they continue to stay here, if Liu Qingyan really has any accidents in front of so many people, then the emperor can't say that it will be even more difficult to block the mouths of Youyou. Not to mention that seeing that Liu Qingyan's situation is dangerous, even if he wants to force her to stay, so many ministers will not agree, even if they don't say anything, if they don't do it, they will turn into themselves pushing them closer to Xuanyuan Yichen's side.
The emperor pondered, anyway, he was not in a hurry, so he just let them go. But he couldn't just let them go in vain, "King Xian, today was originally a reception banquet held to welcome the arrival of the prince and princess of Mengguo. However, Princess Xian is not feeling well, so I will allow you to leave first. However, what I said about the idle king still has to be taken to heart, and there is a marriage about the princess of the idle king and the Mengguo, and the idle king may wish to think about it more. ”
The emperor's meaning is clearly that if King Xian agrees to him to marry the princess of Mengguo, then let him leave now and return to King Xian's mansion with Liu Qingyan. On the other hand, if the idle king wants to say yes or not, then simply continue to stay until he is willing to agree, it depends on who can afford the time better. The emperor is worthy of being a standard villain, and it is already this time, and he still wants to take advantage of the danger of others and take advantage of the opportunity to blackmail.
Xuanyuan Yichen suddenly had nothing to say, he couldn't agree, but he couldn't help but agree, seeing Liu Qingyan fall into a coma but still in pain, he really didn't know what to do. Helpless and powerless, let go of all his self-esteem and pride, just for Liu Qingyan, Xuanyuan Yichen kowtowed again, "The emperor forgives the sin, please allow the courtiers to go back to the house with Qingyan first." ”
He still couldn't agree, and even thinking about it was superfluous, and he could only insist on it in the most simple and stubborn way. It's just that with such persistence, with Liu Qingyan's body, how long can it last. Xuanyuan Yichen only felt that he was about to faint like Liu Qingyan, but for Liu Qingyan, he had to support it.
"Your Majesty, it is a lifelong event, it is better to give the idle king a little more time to think about it. It's late at night today, so let King Xian and Princess Xian go back to the palace first, and then give the emperor an answer when King Xian thinks about it clearly. King Hyundeok spoke again, and came up with a plan to delay the army. In fact, it was also a loophole of the other party, and the emperor was talking about consideration, and there was no time specified. Then it is the same when King Xian goes back to the mansion to think about it, even if he gives an answer of refusal at that time, but this is also the answer he got after consideration, it is definitely not in line with the emperor's wishes, but it cannot be said that Xuanyuan Yichen did not consider it!
The emperor may not understand, but looking at Xuanyuan Yichen's already swollen forehead and faintly showing bloodshots, it seems that he can temporarily satisfy his desire to humiliate Xuanyuan Yichen.
"In that case, I'll give the idle king a little time. Idle King, you have to think about it carefully, and don't let me down! The emperor finally took a step back and decided to let them go.
"Your Majesty." Xuanyuan Yichen secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and temporarily got through today's sadness, although he knew that there was still trouble waiting for them in the back, but he could only take one step at a time. Chu Yi, Fifteen and Xiao Yue, as well as Jian Jiu and Dongfang Ze, all stood up, and several people worked together to help Xuanyuan Yichen pick up Liu Qingyan, who had been in his arms. At this time, someone disrupted them again.
"Wait!" This time, she secretly moved a lot of thoughts, but now it is the first time she has officially spoken, Xuanyuan Yichen's heart tightened, knowing that this noble concubine will definitely not be able to do good things, it seems that if she wants to leave this banquet hall as soon as possible and safely today, leaving the palace, it is really like "passing five levels and killing six generals", one level after another.
Seeing that Xuanyuan Yichen and his party really stopped, Concubine Gao hurriedly looked at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, Cousin Qingyan is in poor health and looks very serious. There is still such a distance from Xian Wang's Mansion here, and the moon is dark and the wind is high outside, and the weather is cold, which is really not suitable for walking at night, plus there are bumps along the way, it is really unsafe, and it will definitely make Qingyan's cousin's physical condition more serious. Your Majesty, the concubine begs you, so temporarily place your cousin in the concubine's palace, and let the concubine and the idle king take good care of Qingyan's cousin for one night. It's rare for the concubine and Cousin Qingyan to see each other, and they haven't gotten along well for a while, so it's good to take an opportunity like today to let the concubine and Cousin Qingyan take a few more looks. After her condition has stabilized, how about sending her back to Xianwangfu tomorrow as appropriate? ”
The emperor groaned for a while, then nodded and said, "What the noble concubine said is reasonable, since this is the case, let the idle king and the idle princess stay in the palace for the time being." ”
