Xiao Tianci was stunned: "Brother Huang, what's wrong with you?" "He was scolded when he came back, and he scolded inexplicably, what did he do to make the imperial brother angry, why didn't he know?
"Are you embarrassed?"
really thought that Xiao Tianci was pretending to be confused, Xiao Yuqi had a gloomy face and slapped it on the table: "What did you do last night?" Don't say you're just going to eat, don't try to hide that little you did, why don't you tell me about it quickly? โ
"Ah...... Brother Huang, how did you know? โ
Xiao Tianci's heart suddenly stammered, "I really didn't, I didn't do anything, I just made an appointment with a few people and had some wine......
"You're still hiding it from me? Do you really want to make trouble out of control before you are comfortable? Do you know the seriousness of the matter? If it weren't for Princess Chu talking about it, I wouldn't know yet! Say to yourself, where did those treasures come from, who gave them to you, and why did you give them to you! Say it quickly, say it right away! โ
A series of thunderous shouts made Xiao Tianci's heart chuckle.
has never been reprimanded by Xiao Yuqi in front of outsiders like this, although Xiao Tianci was a little frightened, he felt that he had done nothing, and suddenly became rebellious. Princess Chu? It's this woman again!
Glancing at Luo Qingluan next to him, Xiao Tianci became more and more unhappy, but he couldn't show it, and said angrily: "Brother Huang, you actually listen to outsiders and don't believe me?" It's just a little thing, is it worth making such a fuss? โ
For him, at most, he extorted 300,000 taels of silver, could it be that the imperial brother was angry with him for such a trivial matter? I'm afraid that Luo Qingluan, a woman, knew about him helping Nangong Wan'er, and deliberately found fault and sow discord, right?
Sure enough, this woman was just hateful, and if he hadn't thought about letting her be cured, he would have kicked her out.
Seeing Xiao Tianci's unrepentant appearance, Xiao Yuqi's face turned pale, "You, you...... You don't know if you regret it until you have to make a mess out of control, don't you? Do you know where those treasures come from, and what are the consequences of sticking them to you? You usually just mess around, but now you actually do this kind of thing, and you still don't know it? โ
"It seems that the third prince still doesn't know what he has done." Luo Qingluan smiled slightly and shook his head.
is worthy of being a stupid person, he should have been used by Nangong Wan'er, with his character, it's strange not to be used, he deserves it!
"You woman, don't sow discord here! Don't think that if you want to treat this king, you can just slander this king! Pointing at Luo Qingluan angrily, Xiao Tianci said to Xiao Yuqi: "Brother Huang, don't listen to her nonsense, the little brother really didn't do anything......
Xiao Yuqi shouted angrily: "Really? โ
couldn't help but pause, Xiao Tianci's momentum weakened, and he said: "It's really not, at most, at most, it's blackmail...... extorted 300,000 pieces of silver. He raised his head and said confidently: "Brother Huang, are you angry with me for these 300,000 taels of silver?" Big deal, I don't want it, okay? Is the offense so hot? โ
actually swept his face in front of Luo Qingluan, a woman, and the imperial brother looked down on him more and more.
Seeing Xiao Tianci like this, Luo Qingluan also felt that something was wrong, this person was not a black-minded person, so eloquent, and said that it was a matter of 300,000 taels of silver, was he really completely unaware?
"Third Prince Xiao, do you really think it's a matter of 300,000 taels of silver? If it's about money, I'll come to you? โ
Luo Qingluan's face was solemn, and he said with a cold feeling: "Those treasures were handed over to you by Nangong Wan'er, right?" Why are you selling? What is the matter with raising 800,000 taels, has the 500,000 taels already received already been given to Nangong Wan'er? What exactly does she ask you to do? โ
Xiao Tianci was dumbfounded when he heard this, and his eyes widened and pointed at Luo Qingluan: "You, you...... Are you so clear? โ
Seeing that he finally admitted it, Xiao Yuqi's heart suddenly sank, and he hated iron and steel: "Third brother, you finally admit it!" Do you know that the treasure given to you by the third princess is the property of the North Vietnamese royal family! Thousands of miles from Beijun to Xichu Capital, but it was stolen halfway, I didn't expect it to appear in your hands, you really don't want to live, do you, actually go to this hot potato?! โ
Like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, Xiao Tianci was stunned on the spot.
A North Vietnamese royal thing!?
A box of jewelry that Nangong Wan'er gave him turned out to be the royal belongings of North Vietnam, stolen?
Even if Xiao Tianci messed around again, he understood the seriousness of the matter.
North Vietnam has completely disappeared as a defeated country, and even if there is a possibility of revival in the future, it now belongs to the territory of Western Chu. As a trophy, the things of the Beiyue royal family with the glory of the victory of Western Chu actually came into the hands of Nangong Wan'er and implicated him, which is really serious!
The more he thought about it, the more wrong it became, Xiao Tianci's face turned from red to white, as bleak as paper, and he knelt down with a plop: "Brother Huang, I really don't know, things have nothing to do with me, I didn't do anything!" You have to trust me......"
screamed and grabbed the ground, Xiao Tianci almost lost a handful of tears and snot, knelt on the ground and regretted not at the beginning: "It's all Nangong Wan'er's slut, it's her, it's all her!" She said that she owed 500,000 taels of silver to Princess Chu, gave me a box of jewelry, and asked me to help her sell it, I believed it, and the result was ......"
The more he talked, the more excited he became, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, Xiao Tianci thought back to the previous incident and completely understood that he had been used by Nangong Wan'er.
There was no longer any concealment, he told the story from beginning to end, how Nangong Wan'er lured him, what excuses he found, he just wanted to please the beauty, but who knew that he was fooled. In the end, Nangong Wan'er turned her face and told her ruthlessly, and scolded her.
"It's all this woman's job! I just accidentally fell for her, and the theft of the treasure really has nothing to do with me! Xiao Tianci knelt down and moved to Xiao Yuqi, hugged his thighs tightly and begged: "Brother Huang, the younger brother knows that he is wrong, please ask the imperial brother to save the younger brother." Princess Chu ......"
He looked at Luo Qingluan again, how could he still have the previous disdain and arrogant eyes: "You must believe me, it was all made by Nangong Wan'er, and I also fell for her!" โ
Glancing at Xiao Yuqi, Luo Qingluan breathed a sigh of relief, but more questions arose.
Since Xiao Tianci was just being used, the whole thing had nothing to do with Dongwan, the biggest hidden danger was solved, and the focus of the matter fell on Nangong Wan'er. Thinking back to the third princess of Xichu who had almost disappeared in the past year, Luo Qingluan didn't expect that things would have anything to do with her.
If it was just Nangong Wan'er, she would never have been able to do such a thing. There must be a huge force behind her, either for her use or for her to join in. Needless to say, the intention is also known, and nature is a huge benefit!
Since the matter was not done by Xiao Tianci, Xiao Yuqi also breathed a sigh of relief, but his face was still not good, and he waved his hand to let Xiao Tianci go down: "You are not allowed to say a word about this matter, you will stay in the room honestly during this time, and you are not allowed to go anywhere, do you hear?!" โ
was frightened, Xiao Tianci couldn't wait to stay out of the matter, and immediately said that he would never be involved with Nangong Wan'er again, and he didn't dare to marry this woman, so it was best for Emperor Xichu to withdraw from the marriage.
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Yuqi was not good at answering directly, so he only asked Xiao Tianci to retreat first, and then asked Luo Qingluan: "Princess Chu, what do you think?" If this case really involves the third princess, wouldn't the marriage between her brother and her be ......?"
This is a tricky question, and Luo Qingluan is not easy to answer for a while.
Obviously, she wanted to marry Nangong Wan'er, out of sight and out of mind, but she didn't expect her to do such a thing, if Nangong Qing knew, I was afraid that she would be even more angry, right? But since it has happened, before the matter is confirmed, it is necessary to investigate it clearly, in case it ......
What if Nangong Wan'er was also taken advantage of?
With a flash in his mind, Luo Qingluan thought of something, and there was a touch of brilliance in his eyes: "Prince Xiao, I have thought of a way." Since the matter fell on the third princess and implicated the third prince Xiao, why don't we come up with a plan? โ
After listening to Luo Qingluan's words, Xiao Yuqi kept nodding and agreed.
On the second day, Xiao Tianci went to the princess's mansion again.
As soon as she saw Xiao Tianci coming again, the porter didn't dare to stop her, but Mei'er had already received Nangong Wan'er's orders, and she didn't have a good face for Xiao Tianci: "Third prince, my princess is unwell and is resting, it's inconvenient to see you, you better go back." โ
Xiao Tianci was not impatient at all, but said with a concerned face: "What, the princess is sick?" Did you ask a doctor to take a look, does it matter? โ
It seemed that he couldn't wait, so he rushed straight in: "No, this king is going to see the princess......"
Mei'er couldn't stop it, so she hurriedly chased after her and stretched out her hand to stop her: "No, the third prince, the princess said that she couldn't see anyone, so you better go back!" โ
His face sank, Xiao Tianci was already angry, if it wasn't for the sake of 'making meritorious contributions', where would he come? At that moment, his face sank and he said angrily: "A subordinate actually dares to stop this king from seeing the princess, what a big boldness!" Don't get out of the way yet! โ
The two attendants behind him immediately rushed up and dragged Mei'er aside, Xiao Tianci didn't pay attention to it, and strode towards it. Full of anger but could only suppress his heart, he couldn't show it at all, Xiao Tianci walked extremely fast, strode away, but arrived outside Nangong Wan'er's room in a moment.
The door was open, not like he was sick and recuperating, Xiao Tianci sneered, and the moment he stepped in, his face was already full of smiles, and he said loudly: "I heard that the princess is sick, this king is worried, so I came to ......"
He had already prepared in his heart, but when he saw Nangong Wan'er with a surprised face, she was sitting at the desk writing something, and was suddenly surprised: "Hey, why did the princess get up?" Didn't Mei'er say that the princess was sick, she should lie down and rest......"
didn't expect Xiao Tianci to break in, Nangong Wan'er's eyes shrank, quickly crumpled the paper she was writing, and said angrily at him: "Xiao Tianci, who gave you the courage to trespass on this princess's boudoir?" โ
