Chapter 315: Digging the Foot of the Wall
"It's sniffing and eating." The five kings white-eyed narcissistic Xia Ye Dao.
Xia Ye touched Ah Huang's head, and then took the pastry from the table to Ah Huang, sure enough, this girl came for food, and after eating and drinking, she actually wanted to return to the five kings.
Ah Huang, who was well-fed, returned to the Five Kings and fell asleep directly, looking at the way the Five Kings looked at the puppy, Xia Ye suddenly felt very warm.
She must admit that everyone has two sides, and perhaps the hidden side of the five kings is tenderness.
Xia Ye suddenly remembered the words of the Five Kings just now that made her spray tea, and then asked curiously: "Is the Five Kings' childhood unhappy?" ”
The five kings raised their eyes and looked at Xia Ye: "Who told you that this king's childhood was unhappy?" ”
"Then why do you say you don't know what it's like to laugh?" Natsuha felt that he felt like he was poking his own shield with his own spear.
"It's just that I haven't laughed in a long time." The five kings stroked Ah Huang's hair and said.
Isn't that a truth? Xia Ye had to ask in a different way: "Why haven't the five kings laughed for a long time?" ”
"There's nothing to be happy about, so why laugh?" The Five Kings asked rhetorically.
Nothing happy? Is that happy when you become a prince? Xia Ye thought so, but remembered an incident at the birthday banquet and asked, "The five kings are the queen's concubines, why does the queen look so young?" ”
The five kings understood that Xia Ye came from Jiang Guo and didn't understand some things about Tubo, so he explained: "That is not my mother, it is just a woman who my father married to another country." ”
So that's the case, Xia Ye nodded, so it's really pitiful that there is no one behind the five kings to support him, but the poor person must have something to hate, who let him put the good five kings inappropriately, he has to fight for the prince.
"Does Brother Li think I'm greedy and covet the position of the crown prince?"
Xia Ye was stunned for a moment, and wanted to nod, but the words changed again: "This kind of thing happens in every country, it should be said that it is human nature, after all, you are a concubine, and it is understandable that you are unwilling." ”
The five kings smiled bitterly: "What about the concubine, the prince is still his, who let him be born as an emperor." ”
"In that case, why do the five kings still fight?" Xia Ye asked.
"Under one person, above ten thousand, the temptation of this supreme power is too great, not to mention, I think that if I become the prince, I will do better than him." The eyes of the five kings were full of ambition.
Good may not be suitable, in fact, what Xia Ye wants to ask most is whether the five kings know about his daughter-in-law cuckolding him, but if the five kings don't know, then she will be in trouble if she asks.
"Why are the Five Kings telling me this? Do you want to dig into the wall? Xia Ye asked with an eyebrow.
"Brother Li, can you dig this corner?" The Five Kings asked rhetorically.
"Haha..."Xia Ye smiled, then bypassed the topic and looked at the teacup on the table: "The main thing for the five kings now is not to dig the foot of the wall, but to drink all these begging tea." ”
"This king doesn't want to drink enough at once, tea is something to taste slowly." After speaking, the five kings hugged Ah Huang and got up: "Let's stop here today, and come to the Hou Mansion another day to continue tasting tea." ”
Hey, just pass her this tea? What a waste! Xia Ye stood up in annoyance and said, "The five kings go slowly." ”
"Steward Wu, send off guests."
The five kings walked out of the hall and turned to look at Xia Ye again, and there was confusion in Xia Ye's eyes that he didn't send him personally.
Hehe... If you want me to send you, I'm too lazy to go! Natsuha smiled harmlessly, then turned back to her room.
Xia Ye, who returned to the room, was inexplicably irritable, she thought that if Zang Mingxu and the Five Kings really had a quarrel in the future because of the competition for the crown prince, it would affect her.
In order to protect herself, she can only withdraw as soon as possible, it seems that she has been this Hou Ye for a short time, but now she is short of an excuse that can make her resign.
Although it was now past noon, the sun had set in the west, but the sun's rays were still sprinkled through the window in Xia Ye's house, Xia Ye thought it was too stuffy after closing the window, so he wanted to use the screen to block it, but as soon as he lifted the screen, something fell down.
It's a piece of clothing that just fell at Natsuba's feet, isn't that my clothes? Xia Ye picked up the clothes curiously, and then dropped something out.
Xia Ye looked at the thing that fell out of his clothes in surprise: "Firebird wings? Natsuba was startled, and then quickly picked up the firebird wings from the ground.
She could be sure that it was a firebird wing, not a wooden stick, because the firebird wings were yellowish, and if you looked closely, they were still different from ordinary wooden sticks.
How could this thing be in her room? Still falling out of her clothes? Xia Ye took the clothes in her hand and looked at them, and this dress was indeed what she wore at the Treasure Auction that day.
But she didn't take this firebird wing, she also turned over at that time, and she didn't, why did it fall out of her clothes again?
Could it be that this firebird wing was really stuck in her clothes at that time? Xia Ye frowned, and then quickly put away the firebird wings.
Fortunately, Steward Wu is resting in the house these days, and no one has to take her clothes away, but this firebird wing is now in her hands, and if it is known by outsiders, it will definitely cause death.
The fact that she has firebird wings must not let anyone know, Xia Ye is holding firebird wings like holding a hot potato, thinking about where to hide it first.
There are so many people grabbing this thing, it must be very useful, she still keeps it carefully, as for Xu Feng, for the sake of safety, it is better not to tell it for the time being.
Natsuba wrapped the firebird wings in a piece of cloth, and then found a place where she thought it was safe to hide the firebird wings.
As soon as she hid, there was a knock on Steward Wu's door outside the door, which startled Xia Ye.
"Master Hou, the proprietress of Hualou is here."
How did she get here? Xia Ye calmed down for a moment, and then said, "Let her in." ”
After a while, Steward Wu came in with Xu Feng, and after Steward Wu retreated, Xu Feng suddenly knelt on the ground.
"What is this?" Xia Ye hurriedly helped up Xu Feng, who was kneeling on the ground: "What happened?" ”
"Please also ask the palace master to forgive his subordinates for taking the liberty of coming."
I'll go! Xia Ye was embarrassed for a moment, thinking that something big had happened, she just said to come as little as possible, but she didn't dare to come when she was scared, Xia Ye had to comfort: "It's okay, is something wrong with Hualou?" ”
Xu Feng nodded, lowered his head and said, "The last time the Firebird Wings matter, because it was Hualou who was in charge, the owner behind the Firebird Wings has been embarrassing Hualou. ”
"Who's behind it?" Xia Ye asked.
"This subordinate doesn't know, but the business of Hualou has been very light recently, these are the people behind the scenes, and there are still people checking the details of Hualou recently." Xu Feng looked very tricky.
The bottom of the flower building is not the cloud palace, the flower building is the dark pile buried in the cloud palace in Tubo, if it is investigated to the end, it will be bad.
"And what do you want to do this time?" Xia Ye didn't know if she should tell Xu Feng about the Firebird Wings in her place, and she didn't know if handing over the Firebird Wings could solve the matter.
