Chapter 42: Too Much Deception
Chenghe Palace.
"Gone?" Prince Chenghe sat on the throne and closed his eyes to recuperate, and a man turned around, it was the only son of Prince Chenghe, he looked anxious, and from time to time raised his eyes to look at Prince Chenghe who was motionless on the seat.
"Father, please her."
Hearing the man say this, Prince Chenghe opened his eyes with a sigh, and his eyes, which should have been old and dizzy, were now so sharp that they almost pierced people.
"What's the hurry?"
His voice was soft, but his eyes were not harmonious, and he was completely two people from the usual image of a smiling old man.
Chenghe Shizi is over 30 years old and is about to enter the 40 mark, but at this moment, under the eyes of Prince Chenghe, he didn't dare to say a word, so he had to be cowardly, looking like he wanted to say something and stopped.
Prince Chenghe showed a deep sigh and sadness on his face, but his complicated eyes were forcibly suppressed by him in an instant.
He said lightly. "Chenghuan's character, you don't know it."
"She's so messy, it's not a day or two, what are you anxious about?"
"But, Father." Chenghe Shizi unconsciously stepped forward, Cheng Huan is his daughter-in-law, Cheng Huan is pampered like this, in some cases, there is also this reason, he values this girl very much, otherwise, he will not be in a hurry to become this virtue. "Although Cheng Huan used to make some nonsense, he never stayed up all night like this."
"Cheng Huan is just a yellow flower girl who has never been married, if this matter spreads, what will happen in the future."
It's good that Chenghe Shizi didn't mention this stubble, but when he mentioned this stubble, Prince Chenghe's gaze suddenly became a little sharper, and Chenghe Shizi was almost forced to weaken his knees and knelt at the feet of Prince Chenghe.
Prince Chenghe couldn't help but tremble with anger when he looked at this only son, who hated iron but not steel. "How will I marry in the future?"
"If you really think about it in the future, how can you cultivate Chenghuan into this virtue?" Prince Chenghe sneered and said. "Fame? Do you still care about her reputation? ”
"Look at the ridiculous things she did in the past, she has lost all the face of the palace, what face do you tell me now?"
"A good county lord, unlike an ordinary woman who treats the boudoir, honestly does embroidery, wanders outside all the year round, chasing behind this prince, behind the man, restless."
When Prince Chenghe mentioned this stubble, he felt very panicked in his heart. "What other reputation can she have now?"
"You only know you're in a hurry now?" Prince Chenghe sneered. "You don't feel ashamed, I feel panicked."
"If it weren't for the fact that others were still worried about my old face, Cheng Huan would have been thrown out early."
"Originally, she was chasing after King An Rui, but at most others thought that she was young and ignorant." Seeing that Prince Chenghe was short of breath, the prince hurriedly took a few steps forward, and couldn't help but step forward a few steps to give Prince Chenghe a good breath. "King An Rui cares about my old skin and old face, and doesn't care about anything with her."
"I used to turn a blind eye and just turn a blind eye."
Prince Chenghe lowered his face coldly and pushed the prince away with one hand. "You see she's getting more and more ridiculous now, what is this doing?"
"It was in my name that I begged the head of the palace, but it was for the sake of a jealous prince of Changchu who had only seen a few faces, and he had to make trouble in the harem palace and strangle the maid on the side of the family." Prince Chenghe sneered.
"I'm going to see what else she can do."
"No one is allowed to look for her!"
Seeing that Prince Chenghe was really angry, and then thinking of the noisy princess in the room, the prince only felt that one head was two big, but he didn't dare to touch Prince Chenghe's brows, so he had to anxiously turn around the hall a few times.
"Father." It's just that in the end it's his own daughter, if he doesn't care, he really can't help it.
The prince was entangled for a long time, and seeing that Prince Chenghe was also angry, he hesitated to step forward. "Cheng Huan is a little younger, so don't be angry with yourself, wait until Cheng Huan comes back, and punish her for a good time."
"Punishment?" Prince Chenghe sneered and raised his eyes to look at his son-in-law, what kind of virtue his granddaughter is, he still doesn't know?
Before he took her out of the palace, he cleaned up and told her to close the door and be vigilant, how many days have passed?
So he slipped out on his own, and if he could manage it, would he still toss these things?
"How do you want to punish her?"
The prince was in a cold sweat when Prince Chenghe looked at him, and he was wondering how to confuse the past, so he only heard the sound of footsteps outside.
He was busy breathing a sigh of relief, "But there is news of Chenghuan?" ”
Although Prince Chenghe is old, his ears and eyes are clear, so he naturally hears it, and although he says that this granddaughter is not angry, but he has been pampered for so many years, how can he really abandon it?
Subconsciously moved his gaze to the direction of the hall.
The person who came in in a panic outside didn't dare to raise his eyes to look at the two people in the main hall for a while, his body shook like a sieve, and he stumbled a little when he spoke. "Tell the prince."
"Say." Prince Chenghe looked at this person like this, and couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in his heart, his brows were tightly locked, and he asked. "What?"
"The county lord, the county lord is back."
"Coming back?" The prince was overjoyed, relieved, and hurried a few steps forward. "It's good to come back, it's good to come back."
"Where is Cheng Huan now?"
Halfway through, he subconsciously glanced back at Prince Chenghe, who was sitting on the high seat, coughed, and prepared to pretend. "Where is that wicked girl now? Why don't you press me up, it's ridiculous..."
But the man did not dare to raise his head to answer, and stumbled for a long time, as if he did not know how to speak.
Prince Chenghe naturally sensed that something was wrong, and snorted coldly, and the old man's voice was full of might. "Say."
"Lord Qiqi." The man shook his body, as if he was afraid of being involved in himself, and couldn't help but tremble. "The county lord is back."
"It's just, it's just."
"Just what?" Shizi also felt a little uneasy in his heart, but he didn't dare to speculate in his heart, stepped forward and grabbed the man's collar. "What the hell is going on?"
The man knew that he couldn't avoid it, so he closed his eyes and gritted his teeth and spoke. "Shizi."
"County Lord, she didn't come back alone."
"Didn't you come back alone?" Shizi was slightly stunned, and subconsciously looked back at Prince Chenghe, but found that Prince Chenghe had turned pale, and the uneasiness in his heart was faintly realized, and Shizi couldn't help but take a step back.
"What do you mean by this?"
"The subordinates didn't dare to talk much, and the county lord had already sent it back to the courtyard." The man was cowardly for a moment, then suddenly knocked his head up. "My subordinates really don't know anything."
The prince already had a hidden speculation in his heart, and his complexion changed greatly, and he lifted it up with a kick and kicked the man over. "If you talk nonsense again, believe it or not, this world has let people pull out your tongue."
The man was shocked, and immediately gave the prince the first answer. "The son of the world spares his life, the son of the world spares his life, and his subordinates don't know anything, they don't know anything."
"What about the other one?" Raising his eyes again, Prince Chenghe's expression had returned to normal, if it weren't for the clenched fingers that showed his current mood, I am afraid that others would be deceived by him.
"In... On the outside. ”
"Press it up."
As he spoke, the man trembled and took out a letter from his sleeve, which was snatched away by the son.
The prince was about to take it apart and take a look, but he was suddenly stopped by Prince Chenghe. "Bring it."
The letter had already been opened, and after hesitating for a moment, the prince reluctantly stepped forward and handed over the letter in his hand to Prince Chenghe, who was sitting like a mountain.
The handwriting on the letter was very simple, and after Prince Chenghe saw it, he slapped his exhausted muscles and muscles on the table, his forehead twitched, and his eyes shone with fierce and pressing eyes, and he muttered four words upside down.
"Deceive too much, deceive too much."
At this moment, a man had been pressed up from below, the man was only wrapped in a thin layer of clothing, and he could clearly see the bruises left under the light undershirt, similar to the marks of a woman's scratches.
Nashizi's face changed drastically, he took a few steps back, and sat down in his chair.
The original speculation had already been realized, and he couldn't help but believe it.
By the time the man pressed closer, Prince Chenghe's face had already fallen silent, his eyes were not very good, his eyes narrowed, and he beckoned, so that the man could be pressed closer, and he reached out to open his wide open clothes.
After seeing the traces underneath, Prince Chenghe bowed his back a little.
Getting closer, Prince Chenghe could clearly smell the faint smell of blood, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he flicked forward for a moment before he saw a bloody mark on the back of the man's neck.
At first glance, it should have been smashed by something like a candlestick.
At this moment, it has clotted into blood clots, and the man is now unconscious, and there should be some reason for this.
Shizi gritted his teeth and stepped forward, grabbed the man's hair, looked the man's appearance up and down, and found that it was just an ordinary man with an ordinary appearance, and he felt a little blind, as if he had never seen it.
Regardless of the fact that the man did not come to his senses, he raised his foot and kicked it. "Brute, drag this person out to this son and kill him with a rod!"
"Wait." But Prince Chenghe suddenly opened his mouth to stop it.
"Father!"
Shizi's originally angry look shone after touching Prince Chenghe's eyes, and he retreated a little, but he looked like he dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak.
"Put this man in the firewood room, and discuss it later." Prince Chenghe gave an order, and no one dared to stop him.
The prince could only watch the man being dragged away, and said indignantly. "Father."
"Shut up!" Prince Chenghe's face finally distorted for a moment, and he pinched the thin piece of rice paper in his hand and spoke. "You think I don't feel heartache?"
"Cheng Huan fell into such an end, she herself is not half wrong?"
"If she hadn't listened to the teachings and had to sneak out of the house, how could she be used by people like this?"
"Father, what did you say?" Shizi was slightly stunned, and his eyes subconsciously looked at the letter that was almost crushed by Prince Chenghe.
Prince Chenghe didn't bother to say anything more to this unsuccessful person, and said with a condensed face. "Go."
"When Cheng Huan wakes up, he will find a temple and pray for me."
"Father." The prince's face changed greatly, and he never thought that Prince Chenghe would be so simple and set the way for Chenghuan in the future.
"Father, if you send Chenghuan into the temple."
Prince Chenghe's eyes lit up. "Can't you hear what I'm saying?"
"Father, Cheng Huan is just a child after all, do this."
"Kid?" Prince Chenghe slammed the table. "If she is allowed to toss it any longer, this palace will be tossed and scattered by her."
"I'm not going to use what I'm talking about, am I?"
"Father." Seeing that Prince Chenghe had made a decision seriously, the prince didn't dare to say anything more.
Prince Chenghe looked at the panicked back of the prince, how could he not know who this unsuccessful son was looking for.
He closed his eyes, and his old age was revealed.
"It's too much of a deception."
