Self-Ruthlessness is Better Than Affection (8)

In the palace, Xia Huai listened a little impetuously to the court officials below lining up to talk about a bunch of things.

What leaks rain in the east, winds in the west, harvests in the south, snow falls in the north, all kinds of little things are reported to the report, don't be too annoying.

In addition, the Xia Dynasty dispatched half of its troops to find Xia Yuan, and there was still no news for so many days, which made Xia Huai even more annoyed, this kid was obviously hiding from himself and didn't want to come back. Could it be because he was too impulsive and re-established the crown prince, which made Xiao Yuan angry? Then as long as he is willing to come back, what kind of crown prince, even the throne he wants, he can give it to him. Xia Huai sighed, I really want to be a good father.

Finally, after the last civil official finished his speech, Xia Huai couldn't wait to wave his hand at the minister.

"If it's okay, let's retreat quickly."

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

Dozens of civil and military attachés withdrew from the front hall like a tide.

Looking at the hall that was gradually empty, Xia Huai sighed, "It's finally clean." ”

"Your Majesty." In the shadow at the entrance of the main hall, a somewhat elderly eunuch came out, bowing his head and stepping on small steps, kneeling in the middle of the main hall, "I can't find His Highness Xia Yuan anywhere." ”

"Bastards, you people who eat white rice, you can't find it and continue to look for me!" Xia Huai felt his temples jump suddenly, "If you can't find Xia Yuan, you can all consciously go down and receive the punishment." ”

"The emperor is angry, even if the old minister digs three feet into the ground, he will bring His Royal Highness Xia Yuan to the emperor safely." The old eunuch's forehead was covered in cold sweat, and he was overwhelmed by Xia Huai's momentum, he really accidentally provoked Long Yan's anger.

"Got it, why don't you hurry up and find me?"

"The old minister retired." The old eunuch bent down and did not dare to raise his head, but cautiously retreated, until he exited the gate, did he dare to turn around and run.

Call...... Whew, the old eunuch gasped, and at that moment in the hall, he really felt the murderous aura emanating from the emperor's body, and thought that he was going to be killed.

The old eunuch stopped and went on. Let's hurry up and find His Highness Xia Yuan.

Everyone in the palace knew that the door of the palace dungeon was actually opened in a huge stone.

Legend has it that this boulder was the reign of the first emperor, the night before the pacification of the Northwest Rebellion, appeared in this place without warning, civil and military officials all said that this is a good sign given by God to the Xia Dynasty to recover the northwest and unify China. The first emperor felt that if this stone was placed like this, it would not look good, so he thought about it and ordered someone to dig and build a dungeon under the boulder, which should be used to imprison the remnants of the Hu people.

At this time, there were two guards standing at the door of the dungeon, both of them were dressed in armor and holding a long tasseled spear, but the difference was that the guard on the left stood straight; The one on the right is crookedly leaning on the tassel gun to support his body, looking decadent.

"Hey, what's the point of us standing here every day, who else would come to such a remote place except for the occasional prisoner or two?" The somewhat lazy guard stretched out his finger and poked the face of his colleague next to him.

The colleague tilted his head to avoid the fingers he wanted to continue poking up: "You stand up to your own post, why do you care so much?" ”

"Huh? You're getting more and more old-fashioned now. The languid guard pursed his lips and expressed great dissatisfaction with his peers.

"Hurry up and stand still, someone's coming." The colleague slapped the person next to him who didn't stand up.

I saw a man wearing a bright yellow brocade coat and a somewhat bloated figure walking not far away.

"His Royal Highness the Prince." The two guards saluted Xia Yi at the same time.

Xia Yi ignored the two and walked straight into the dungeon.
