Chapter 185: Pucao
If in the past, Rong Hao, who was humiliated by King Xiang, would only cry silently, even if he borrowed his courage, he would not dare to say half a contradictory word. Now, Rong Hao is insinuating, insinuating that what King Xiang has done is detrimental to the royal dignity.
King Xiang was stunned by this. Rong Hao's arrogant demeanor was like a jar of fire oil poured on King Xiang's anger, and a roar burned on the ground, quickly spreading to the bottom of King Xiang's eyes. He took three steps and two steps, came in front of Rong Hao, raised his hand angrily, and a loud slap fell on Rong Hao's cheek.
Rong Hao's face was pale, and he was slapped by King Xiang.
King Xiang originally thought that Rong Hao must be the same as in the past, and he only knew how to cry bitterly when he was beaten. Which Cheng thought, instead of crying, Rong Hao stubbornly pursed his mouth and looked sideways at him.
King Xiang was shocked by the anger surging in Rong Hao's eyes.
Is he still Rong Hao?
King Xiang was suspicious.
"Of course, the slave and maid are wrong, why does the prince need to teach him a lesson? Wait until early in the morning, and hand over the slaves and maids to the wardens in the field. The five fingerprints on Rong Hao's cheeks are clearly recognizable. Every time he sputtered a word, he could feel a burst of itching and numbness hitting his heart from his cheeks, and it was extremely uncomfortable.
Rong Hao handled it calmly and extinguished the arrogance of King Xiang. Even King Xiang himself couldn't tell why the anger in his chest came and went so quickly. Maybe it was the Tianuchi eunuch in Rong Hao's mouth, which made King Xiang scruple.
If this matter goes to Tian Zhen's place, His Majesty the Emperor will definitely know about it. Tian Zhen can't do anything with him, if he displeases His Majesty the Emperor, it will really outweigh the losses.
King Xiang couldn't get the affection he wanted from Rong Hao, and he felt disappointed. He raised his eyelids and glanced at Rong Hao's red, swollen and slightly distorted face, becoming more and more unappetizing. King Xiang began to miss the gentle township that belonged to him in the small pavilion at this time.
However, he was scolded and scolded, and he was beaten, if King Xiang left alone silently, it would be undignified.
King Xiang raised his chin arrogantly and said to Rong Hao in a deep voice: "Send it to Tian Zhen, it's too cheap for you!" Your cheap life is worse than a cockroach! I could have put you to death at any time if I wanted to. ”
What King Xiang said was true, but Rong Hao was not intimidated by King Xiang. On the contrary, he felt that King Xiang, who had no heart, was barely counted as a walking corpse. Because King Xiang does not understand the true meaning and purpose of being a human being.
Why is Rong Hao fearless?
King Xiang was puzzled, and he even saw compassion and sympathy for him in Rong Hao's eyes.
Rong Hao's humble status is like dust and mud, he actually sympathizes with him and pities him? Rong Hao has changed and become a different person. The corners of King Xiang's eyes suddenly jumped, and inexplicable annoyance surged into his heart.
"You're not afraid of me?" King Xiang blurted out a stupid sentence, so that as soon as the words fell, King Xiang wanted to take it back.
Fear!
Rong Hao is finally afraid of the identity of King Xiang. However, aside from his official status, Rong Hao only had compassion for King Xiang.
King Xiang, who doesn't know what he was born for, is really sad.
Rong Hao was silent, and King Xiang continued to take care of himself: "I don't know what kind of ecstasy soup Xie Jiu poured into you during your time in Wuyuan, and even his face changed to be unfamiliar and indifferent. As he spoke, he stretched out his fingers, touched Rong Hao's red and swollen cheeks, and asked softly, "Does it hurt?" ”
Rong Haojiao's beautiful appearance was distorted and hideous because of his slap. However, King Xiang had no consciousness of the initiator, as if Rong Hao's pain had nothing to do with him, his face was not red and his heart was not beating, and he was not ashamed to apologize.
Rong Hao's arms tightened tightly, turned lightly under his feet, turned his body sideways, avoided King Xiang's fingertips, and said, "It doesn't hurt." The tone is all indifferent.
King Xiang knew that Rong Hao was lying. He ignored Rong Hao's deliberate alienation for the time being. frowned, and said mournfully: "Rong Hao, you must have been confused by that Xie Jiu, so you failed my true feelings for you." You wait, I will definitely ask Xie Jiu for an explanation. ”
King Xiang kept blaming Xie Jiulang, as if Xie Jiulang was the culprit who harmed Rong Hao. Rong Hao was anxious and called: "Your Highness!" The beautiful eyes were stunned, and she turned her head to look at King Xiang, "The slave maid and Xie Langjun are innocent, not as unbearable as His Highness imagined!" ”
Seeing this, the corners of King Xiang's lips curved slightly, revealing a sinister smile that had succeeded in his treacherous scheme, "Since you are innocent, why do you need to protect it?" ”
Rong Hao finished his words, looking at King Xiang in a daze, not knowing how to deal with it. After pondering for a moment, Rong Hao suddenly realized that King Xiang was testing his attitude towards Xie Langjun. Rong Hao couldn't laugh or cry. Not to mention that he has nothing to do with Xie Langjun, even if he does, it will not be King Xiang's turn to put his beak.
"The prince's words are wrong. The status of the slave is low, and she is unable to protect the Xie clan Langjun in Donggu. Rong Hao said respectfully, he deliberately accentuated the words of Donggu Xie, intending to remind King Xiang that Xie Langjun was not a palace slave who was bullied by King Xiang. If King Xiang is unfavorable to Xie Langjun, he also has to weigh whether he has enough strength to shake the Donggu Xie clan.
King Xiang understood the deep meaning of Rong Hao's words, his eyes rolled three times, and his words were chiseled: "What about the Donggu Xie family?" Don't forget, my future father-in-law is the King of Donggu Qin! ”
King Xiang obviously didn't like Jiao'e, and when it came to climbing the relationship, he was not ambiguous at all, and he brought out King Qin of Donggu to support him in a grand manner. Rong Hao rolled his eyes at King Xiang countless times in his heart. He secretly scolded himself for being blinded by lard in the past, so he would commit himself to a shameless person like King Xiang.
King Xiang thought that Rong Hao listened to it, smiled lightly, and continued: "Don't think he is a righteous gentleman, let me tell you, Xie Jiu is just pretending to be high in front of you, and he and King Jin are definitely not clean." ”
Rong Hao laughed when he heard this. How Xie Langjun is is a person, everyone can see. If he is not a righteous gentleman, there will be no righteous gentleman in the world.
"Oh? Is this true? Rong Hao's eyes turned to King Xiang.
King Xiang and Rong Hao looked at each other for a moment, then hurriedly dodged, and said in response: "It's true!" ”
"The prince and Xie Langjun don't have a deep relationship, how did you know about it?" Rong Hao raised his face, looked at him with a sneer, and asked.
When King Xiang heard Rong Hao's tone, he felt that he didn't want to be bluffed before, so he simply waved his hand, and said impatiently: "How do you care how I know?" I told you that you don't understand! But listen to me, believe me, and ask me, and ask what are the many doings? ”
Rong Hao saw through King Xiang's cowardly nature, and his eyes were particularly ridiculed, and he leaned over slightly and said: "The slave and maid are troublesome, and I ask the prince to forgive me." ”
He professes forgiveness, but there is no hint of request.
Now, Rong Hao is no longer as obedient as Pucao, Xie Jiulang not only taught him to carry the drum, but also trained him to be sharp and fearless. King Xiang suddenly realized that he had lost all interest in the current Rong Hao.
King Xiang's eyes fell on Rong Hao again, and he shouted and asked: "If you want me to spare you, you should kneel down and kowtow dozens of times!" There is no sincerity at all, how can I spare you? ”
King Xiang said that he would turn his face, which caught Rong Hao off guard. He was stunned, pondered for a moment, his knees weakened, and he knelt in front of King Xiang, "The slave knows his mistake, and asks the prince to forgive him." He wrapped his arms around his back drum hard, his forehead touched the ground, and his voice choked to ask for a favor from King Xiang.
Rong Hao softened, King Xiang didn't accept it when he saw it, he snorted, raised his chin high, and didn't look at Rong Hao who was kneeling on the ground.
