Chapter 49 in lieu of punishment

"This is the night pearl of the South China Sea, which can be used in medicine, and this king also got it by accident, but it buried it when he brought it with him, so if you transfer it to the princess, you can also play its role."

Song Zhao said lightly, Gong Tianyao's eyes never left the night pearl from beginning to end, the night pearl has a miraculous effect when used in medicine, she has heard of it a long time ago, but the night pearl is expensive and the quantity is scarce, how can it be easily obtained?

The night pearl that Song Zhao gave her is a rare treasure in terms of size and color, and it is really a generous gift.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Song Zhao asked out at the right time, "What, the princess doesn't like it?" ”

"No, no." Gong Tianyao hurriedly denied it repeatedly, while still putting the night pearl into the sachet and carrying it on her body, she was blessed by misfortune to get such a treasure, and when she was full of joy, she never noticed that the sachet she tied to her body was Song Zhao's.

Song Zhao saw her like this, for some reason, he coughed twice unnaturally, but he didn't ask her, only heard Gong Tianyao say: "The prince is willing to cut his love, and the concubine is grateful, except for trying his best to heal the prince, I really don't know how to thank him." ”

"It's not about cutting love, it's right to borrow flowers to offer Buddha." Song Zhao suddenly opened the topic and asked, "No, has the princess eaten?" ”

Gong Tianyao's heart moved, did he mean to invite himself to dinner? I was about to lie and say that I had eaten, but my stomach was not angry, so I gurgled before she could speak.

She was a little embarrassed, but Song Zhao didn't mean to laugh at all, and only said: "This king is about to go to the dining room, and the princess has no use to eat, so why don't you go together?" ”

Gong Tianyao had just received such a big gift from others, and he couldn't say anything if he refused, so he had to nod and agree. He went with him to the dining-room, and when he had finished his meal, he did not gossip, and went back to his own country.

The years on their side have been quiet, but they don't know that the sky is already boiling outside, Song Lang has already let go out, and the scandal of Princess Nan'an cuckolding King Nan'an is well known.

On the second day, the emperor rarely left the Nine Emperors to speak, and everyone knew the reason, but they only took care of the face of the royal emperor, so they did not make a big noise in public.

Song Zhao had already made all preparations, and the moment the third prince appeared in the Nan'an Palace, he had expected that this matter would never end easily.

Entering the inner hall, he saluted and greeted him, the emperor stood not far away with his hands behind his back, looked at him condescendingly, and did not ask him to get up, Song Zhao knelt respectfully, without a trace of dissatisfaction and complaints.

"Do you know what I called you for?" The emperor's voice was majestic, and he could hear that he was displeased.

"The retainers know that they are guilty." Song Zhao calmly responded: "Willing to be punished." ”

The emperor sneered angrily: "What a crime you have!" The one who is guilty is your astounding princess! Those kinds of words have reached my ears, and I don't know what the common people say about it, and all the royal face has been lost by her! ”

The more he spoke, the more angry he became, and Song Zhao waited for him to finish speaking calmly, and then said respectfully: "Things are not as my father thought, it's just a misunderstanding." ”

"Misunderstanding?" The emperor raised his voice: "Then I want to listen to you carefully, what kind of misunderstanding is it!" ”

Song Zhao was just about to open his mouth to speak, only to hear the high and shrill voice of the eunuch outside the palace: "The third prince asks to see." ”

The emperor did not hesitate, and immediately said in a loud voice: "Order him to come in!" ”

The third prince quickly entered the hall and knelt in front of Song Zhao to salute, but the emperor only asked him to get up alone, and asked, "What do you have to say when you come?" ”

The emperor's attitude was much more cordial, and when the third prince saw the question, he immediately spoke: "Father, you still don't know what is going on in the Ninth Brother's Mansion, right?" Now it's crazy outside, those people don't say anything in their mouths, if it's only for Nan'an Wangfu, it's just that, but it will be burdened by others, and the words arranged can't be heard at all, father, this is an incident caused by the ninth brother and sister, for the dignity of the Son of Heaven, you must not tolerate it! ”

The emperor who added oil and vinegar made the emperor even more furious, and immediately said angrily: "You must not spare her, come here, Princess Xuannan'an will enter the palace!" ”

The eunuch flew away, Song Zhao knelt straight, and his tone was firm: "Father, this matter is just a misunderstanding, the son can testify for the princess, those words are just rumors, the princess is innocent." ”

"You're still talking to her!" The emperor was furious, pointed at him and said angrily: "I see that you are dazed by this woman!" If you are not sober, I am afraid that your life will be lost in her hands! ”

Song Zhao's expression was awe-inspiring, the emperor's words were like bayonets, fortunately, his heart had already been cultivated into an iron wall, and such ruthless and vicious words could not cause him any harm.

He said a little stubbornly: "The princess just went out to play and came back late, and it was by no means dirty as those people said." ”

"The dignified princess, she doesn't take a car when she goes out to play, she doesn't take a maid with her, she doesn't enter through the front door in the open and bright, but sneaks in through the back door of the garden in the evening?"

The third prince undoubtedly made the emperor's suspicion of Gong Tianyao even heavier, he was so angry that he didn't allow Song Zhao to say any more, and scolded him sharply: "Such a woman who doesn't abide by women's morals, do you still have the face to intercede for her?" I see you're hopeless! ”

The third prince was triumphant, with an ugly look of revenge, Song Zhao's face was calm, and he bowed and kowtowed: "Father Emperor Mingjian, Tianyao has nothing to do." ”

At this time, where could the emperor listen to his words, his face was gloomy, and he said coldly: "You don't have to say anything, she despises the royal etiquette, I must let her know the consequences of doing this." ”

"Father!" Song Zhao's face finally showed eagerness: "If the father wants to punish him, he will punish his son!" Tianyao is innocent, it's all Erchen's fault! ”

As she was talking, Gong Tianyao had been brought in by the eunuch, and just when she heard Song Zhao's words, she realized that the current situation was not good, she knelt down respectfully, and read in her mouth: "The son of the emperor asks for peace to his father." ”

The emperor squinted his eyes and looked at the two people kneeling side by side on the ground, and his tone became more and more cold: "I didn't expect you to be so obsessed, it is my fault to raise a useless son like you, you want to be punished for her, okay, I will fulfill your wish!" ”

After that, he commanded the palace people: "Bring the whip!" ”

The emperor was moved this time, and the eunuchs did not dare to slack off, not to mention that the Nine Emperors had always been displeased with the emperor, and no one dared to persuade him at this time, Gong Tianyao heard that he was going to be whipped, looking at Song Zhao's emaciated figure, he couldn't help but feel a little worried: "He, can he stand it?" ”

The whip was quickly brought over, and the emperor snatched it up, wrapped it around his hand a few times, and waved it in the air, making a piercing roar, and the next moment the long whip landed firmly on Song Zhao's shoulder with lightning speed.
