Chapter 211: Sleepless Night
"No, what we haven't done, no one wants to deduct it from us." Xie Yao looked at the two of them and said in a low voice, "Remember, if they want to harm us on trumped-up charges, let's find a way to escape, and when the time comes, if we can run one by one, we must act decisively, we can't be the unjust souls in this palace." ”
Xie Mingyuan nodded: "I listen to my father." ”
"Brother Yuan, you are the only male in our Xie family, if you have the opportunity, you just have to flee out, flee far away, as long as there are people, there is hope, don't worry about us." Xie Ting was discouraged, "If we have anything, when the rumor passes, come back and collect the body for us." ”
"It's not such a serious second uncle." Xie Mingyuan couldn't cry or laugh, and said in a low voice, "Don't talk about us, even if you behead a common person, you have to find out the reason and verify your identity, how can you easily deal with it like this." ”
He wasn't worried about dying here.
What he cares about is getting out of here, and there is no need to guess, the family must have been in a mess.
"Having said that, there are many souls in this palace mansion who have died!" Xie Ting got up and walked to the door, leaned on the crack of the door and looked out, but couldn't see anything, before he returned to his place stupidly, looking at this room through the faint light outside the window, it seemed to be a banquet room that was not very commonly used, there were a few tables and chairs in it, a bookshelf, nothing else, not even a compartment, Xie Mingyuan also stood up, groped a few steps, took out a fire fold and lit it, and found half a candle on the bookshelf.
There was a light in the room, and the mood of the three gradually stabilized.
After a while, footsteps were heard outside.
The three of them looked at each other and held their breath in unison.
Xie Ting blew out the candlelight.
The room was plunged into darkness for a moment.
Leng Buding, a voice outside sounded: "Uncle Xie, are you all right?" ”
"No, it's fine!" Xie Yao's heart was also beating hard, he barely managed to stabilize himself, got up and walked to the door, and asked, "May I ask who Your Excellency is?" ”
"Uncle Xie, I'm Xiao Heng." Xiao Heng saw that the door was locked, and said, "Don't worry, stay here first, and I will find a way to let you go home." ”
"Thank you, Lord Xiao." Xie Yao was overjoyed in his heart, and shook the crack in the door again and again.
The footsteps were far away.
Xie Ting stroked his chest at this time: "Lord Xiao is really a good person!" ”
"It must be the fifth sister who found Lord Xiao, and Lord Xiao came to help us." Xie Mingyuan lit the candle again, and returned to his seat with relaxed steps, "Now we don't have to think nonsense, it's okay." ”
Cining Palace.
Knowing the maidservant's report, Aunt Cheng greeted her, stood on the steps, blessed Xiao Heng, and said expressionlessly: "Lord Xiao, the Queen Mother has already rested, let's talk about it tomorrow!" ”
"Aunt Cheng, why are you detaining the Xie family in the palace?" Xiao Heng asked directly.
"Lord Xiao, if the slave is not mistaken, the emperor stopped all the errands of the Flying Fish Guard a few days ago, saying that he asked Lord Xiao to sort out all the cases handled by the Flying Fish Guard over the years, right?" Aunt Cheng said with a smile in her eyebrows, "So, there is no need for Feiyuwei to ask about the big and small matters of Cining Palace, is Lord Xiao a little overstepping?" ”
Zuo Yantang's case is widely implicated.
I heard that the emperor found out about Feiyuwei, so he suspended Xiao Heng for self-examination, although there was no restriction on Xiao Heng's freedom, but the Xiao family relied on General Xiao to guard the border pass, and they didn't take this matter seriously.
Even the Empress Dowager Xiao said that when General Xiao returned to Beijing at the end of the year to report on his work, the emperor would use Feiyuwei again.
"Aunt Cheng, I didn't come to ask about this as a Flying Fish Guard." Xiao Heng said coldly, "I only ask you, why do you treat the Xie family like this?" I dare to guarantee that His Royal Highness King Qi's affairs were not done by the Xie family, they don't have the courage or ability, and there must be someone else in this matter. ”
Not to mention Anpingbo's Mansion, even if it is a noble person, it is not capable of hurting people outside the palace wall.
The injury is still His Royal Highness King Qi.
"Lord Xiao, how can the Queen Mother's orders be speculated at will?" Aunt Cheng looked at this handsome young man with a smile, blessed her body slightly, returned to the house without looking back, and instructed the maidservants on the left and right, "Send Master Xiao out." ”
"Yes!" Two maidservants stepped forward, "Congratulations to my lord." ”
Xiao Heng brushed his sleeves away.
He returned to the side hall before, facing the locked wooden door, wanting to say something, but he felt that he had nothing to say, he knew that even if he smashed the door lock to save them, he couldn't take them out of Cining Palace.
After thinking about it, he went to Kunning Palace again to ask Empress Xiao.
When Empress Xiao learned of this, she was quite surprised: "Why did the Queen Mother detain the Xie family in the palace?" ”
"That's why I'm here to ask the mother." Xiao Heng was puzzled, "If it is a political matter, there is a ruling of the emperor, how can there be a reason for the harem to privately detain the officials of the imperial court?" If the emperor knows about this, he doesn't know how to be jealous! ”
"It must be for the sake of King Qi's affairs that the Queen Mother summoned them to ask." Empress Xiao muttered, "You don't have to worry about this matter, we can't take care of it, if the emperor blames, maybe he will cure us for the crime of not reporting it, now that the court situation is chaotic, you are still wise to protect yourself, it's so late, you better get out of the palace quickly!" ”
"But the Xie family ......" Xiao Heng was still not at ease.
Although Xie Jinyi didn't ask him for help, he still wanted to help her.
"The Xie family must be fine." Empress Xiao knew this younger brother the best, and looked at Xiao Heng with hatred, "I don't care who entrusted you to enter the palace to inquire about this matter, but I dare to guarantee that the Queen Mother will not do anything to the Xie family, at most it is just a warning, you can rest assured that you can go back." ”
Unexpectedly, her younger brother still misses Xie Jinyi.
It is really unreasonable to risk being impeached to enter the palace to inquire about this matter.
Xiao Heng walked out of the palace in a huff.
The gods sent the ghost to ride to the Anping Bo Mansion.
I happened to see Yong'an Hou Xu Pei dismounting at the door, and was welcomed in by the porter, thinking that Xu Pei was the new commander of the forbidden army, I realized that Xie Jinyi had gone to ask Xu Pei, so he was relieved to fight his horse and go.
Xie Jinyi learned that Xie Yao was summoned by the Queen Mother, and his heart was a little relieved: "There is the Hou Ye, since there is the Hou Ye's people secretly protecting us, then we can rest assured." ”
"Girl, don't worry, Emperor Ming'er's birthday, the Queen Mother won't do anything to them." Xu Pei said firmly, "I will definitely release him tomorrow." ”
"That's good!" Xie Jinyi.
After Xu Pei left, Xie Jinyi asked Ziyu to go to Shengning Hall to talk to Old Madam Gu and the Wei family, so that they could rest in peace, Old Madam Gu was very unhappy: "Yong'an Hou personally went to Qingxin Garden to tell the fifth girl?" ”
"Yes, it's right at the door, I didn't even enter the house, and I left after speaking." Mother Xue replied.
"It seems that Yong'an Hou wants to associate with the five girls, not with our Anping Bo Mansion." Old Madam Gu said thoughtfully, "The five girls' communication is getting wider and wider. ”
Mother Xue didn't squeak.
When Wei heard that Xie Yao and they were fine, he stroked his chest, but he didn't care about Old Madam Gu's thoughts.
At night, Xie Jinyi had insomnia.
If the emperor really summoned her to the palace, what should she do?
Why did Chu Yunzhao say that the ugly daughter-in-law always wants to see her in-laws, did Zhao Jinghuan say something to the emperor?
