"I see, my eldest brother is just sick."

"But ......" Rong Yunxi felt a little unreasonable, but because he was outside, he didn't ask.

After returning to their room, he said: "Since we really found Xiuyu, it proves that most of Aunt Hong's explanations are true, so Miss Qingluo should not have undergone careful training." And I don't think she looks like she's a daring person, why did the prince put her here? ”

Rong Yunxi felt that King Chen had already figured it out, so she didn't bother to think about it, so she asked King Chen directly, just to give her a chance to show off.

"Hmph......" King Chen sat proudly on the chair in the small study and crossed Erlang's legs, "I haven't figured it out yet!" ”

Listening to Rong Yunxi, he didn't spurt out a mouthful of old blood!

Dare to love your old man's smug face, just supporting himself? Is this worthy of the aura released by your whole body?

"Don't think about it so much", after being silent for a long time, King Chen suddenly got up and said to Rong Yunxi, "You go and call Qingluo to this king." ”

"Ah...... Be. Rong Yunxi answered, and obediently went to call someone for him.

After a while, he called Miss Qingluo into the house and closed the door casually.

King Chen commanded, "The windows are also closed." ”

"Yes, Your Highness......" Rong Yunxi replied impatiently.

"Qingluo, ah......" King Chen paced back and forth beside Qingluo standing in the small square hall with his head down, looking her up and down, "Are you still used to this afternoon here?" ”

"Habit." Green Radix Road.

The tone isn't very respectful, but it's not offensive either. It can be completely unrelated to enthusiasm and shyness.

"That's good...... King Chen went back to the study, sat down in a chair, and put his legs on the desk, so comfortable. beckoned to Qingluo: "You come here." ”

Rong Yunxi sat on a round stool in the hall, guarding a plate of melon seeds on the table, and began to eat melon seeds and watch the lively leisurely life.

"Sit down, don't hold back." King Chen pointed to the two chairs placed on the wall of the small study.

Qingluo deliberately stayed away from King Chen and sat on the second chair.

"But this king feels that your sister is not living comfortably in Lord Qu's mansion. Why don't you take her to your side? King Chen smiled.

Hearing King Chen talk about her sister, Qingluo was stunned, and she didn't know how to deal with it.

"She's with the prince...... You say, in case someone accidentally kills her...... How is this good? After all, it's a human life, and a dead person's business is not a good thing after all. But this king thinks that if someone accidentally kills her, it will be a good thing for you, Miss Qingluo. Miss Qingluo, you're right? I'm tied to everything, but I'm very aggrieved. ”

King Chen said casually, as if talking about a common thing, but Qingluo didn't know how to speak, and only felt that a heart had already raised her throat.

"This king feels that your sister's life can't be kept." King Chen said with certainty.

Hearing this, Qingluo knelt on the ground with a "poof", kowtowed heavily and said, "Your Highness is angry...... All the mistakes are the fault of the slave family, and it has nothing to do with my sister. If Your Highness is annoyed, just sprinkle all your anger on the slave family, and don't involve the slave sister. ”

"But the eldest brother has already involved her, so she is destined not to live", King Chen said, "Even if this king doesn't do anything to her, once you can't complete the task assigned to you by the eldest brother, with the temper of the eldest brother, both of you sisters will die." ”

Qingluo knelt on the ground and hung her head, not daring to speak.

For a moment, the room was so quiet that there was only ...... Coming from the small hall, rattling, rattling...... The sound of swallowing melon seeds.

King Chen was attracted by this voice and glanced into the small hall. Seeing that Rong Yunxi seemed to be protecting a baby, holding the melon seed plate, he was stumbling hard.

Rong Yunxi was sipping melon seeds in her mouth while looking at the small study......

Look at the excitement, there is really her.

King Chen shook his head and smiled, and even his tone towards Qingluo was a little softer: "Say, what did the eldest brother ask you to come over?" ”

Qingluo hung her head and was silent, still not speaking.

"You and this king have explained that this king can make sure that your sister is okay. But if you don't give an account to the king...... Your sister won't see the sun tomorrow morning. You should know that open guns are easy to dodge and dark arrows are difficult to defend, and there are countless people around this king who can put dark arrows. ”

Qingluo hung her head, still tangled......

The main thing is that she simply doesn't know what she can say.

What the prince asked her to do, it really looks like she was just joking with King Chen.

King Chen was not in a hurry, but leaned back on the chair leisurely, looking at the person who was eating melon seeds in the small hall and watching the excitement.

The melon seeds were sent to his mouth, rattling, one after another, and his eyes were still looking at him intently, like that, how could he look like a little mouse that was knocking things?

King Chen looked a little distracted, and Qingluo suddenly spoke, so frightened that his butt jumped on the chair.

Listen with some impatience......

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince just asked the slave family to find His Highness unhappy. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that His Royal Highness is a smiling tiger, and he hates Your Highness the most...... False...... fake face, so just let the concubine deliberately debunk you when you say kind words. Especially in front of people, it must make you feel that you can't get off the stage. There is no other command. ”

"Actually, the slave family is also curious, is it necessary for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to go to great lengths to let the slave family do such a simple and boring thing? The slave family couldn't figure it out, but the younger sister was in the hands of His Royal Highness, so the slave family had to agree. ”

King Chen thought for a long time and said, "That's it, either you die or your sister dies, you choose one." ”

"Your Highness, what the slave family knows, it's already said! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really only let the slave family do this, and there really isn't anything else...... Ask Your Highness to forgive the slave family and the slave family's sister...... The slave family will not dare to really trouble Your Highness, and you must serve Your Highness well. ”

"But if you don't trouble the king, it means that you haven't fulfilled the emperor's request. If you don't fulfill the emperor's request, it is equivalent to letting your sister die. And you have fulfilled the instructions of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and you have annoyed this king. If you annoy this king, you will die. So you say, are these two choices that this king has given you are the ones you have to face in the current situation? ”

"So...... Have a good time, say, which one to choose. ”

Rong Yunxi swallowed melon seeds, seeing that King Chen was so aggressive, she really felt sorry for this beauty who knelt on the ground and sobbed.

This time, Rong Yunxi was not sure whether King Chen would kill Qingluo.

It is likely that Qingluo said that if she chooses the former, King Chen will immediately raise her sword and fall to prevent future troubles. And the moment before the sword was drawn, King Chen's face was still smiling.

Of course, it is also very likely - not to kill.

Because this is the person sent to him by the prince, if he dies for no reason, maybe the prince will make a big fuss about it......

Ay? Dead, make a fuss......

The prince asked Qingluo to disobey King Chen in public and find King Chen unhappy, is it to ......

Hearing the sound of snorting melon seeds in the small hall, King Chen looked at the little mouse again: "You think of the intention of the eldest brother to do this." ”

"Hmm." Rong Yunxi nodded. It's still the same as the melon seeds just put into the mouth.

"Tell me about it."

Rong Yunxi glanced at Qingluo. Some could not bear to aggravate this woman's sorrow.

"It's okay, you talk about it, maybe you can't tell you accurately!" King Chen said with a smile.

"Miss Qingluo, from the moment the prince gave you to King Chen, in fact, your end was already doomed. That's – death. ”

Rong Yunxi looked at her pitiful back, and said slowly: "You are a gift from the prince to King Chen, if King Chen cherishes it, the brotherhood between them will go further. But if King Chen doesn't cherish it, and kills you because you annoy him, what will outsiders say? Wouldn't you say the prince? No. Outsiders will say that King Chen is too disrespectful and arrogant. ”

"Do you think that judging from the instructions given to you by the prince in your current position, does the prince's intention be to be a good brother to be the envy of everyone with King Chen, or does he want others to criticize King Chen, and praise him by the way?"

"Concubine Ben thinks that although you don't have the guts, your brain is still enough. If you calm down and think about it, it's not hard to come up with the answer. ”

The answer is already obvious, and that is – the latter.

As long as outsiders know that the gifts given by the prince do not understand the rules and do not match King Chen's intentions, it will be enough. The rest of the things don't need to be done by King Chen, the prince will help King Chen "solve the trouble".

But everyone will think that this move to solve the trouble was done by King Chen.

"Your Highness...... Yes...... Will it kill the slaves? ”

"It's not that this king will kill you......" King Chen was a little helpless, feeling that it was really a troublesome thing to communicate with a stupid woman, "but the eldest brother, the eldest brother will help this king kill you." But this charge will be laid on the king's head. Just like if this king sends someone to quietly poison Xiuyu, she dies in the prince's courtyard, and the first thing others think of will be the prince. So the eldest brother sent someone to kill you quietly, and others will definitely think that the king killed you. ”

"That's what the eldest brother wants...... Planted. Can you understand what this king says? ”

"Your life is not in the hands of the king, but in the hands of the prince, who is waiting to strike in the shadows. He is in the dark, and the king is in the light, and if you don't cooperate, the king won't be able to protect you. ”

Hearing the word "kill" in King Chen's mouth, Qingluo was already scared stupid. In fact, King Chen was going around and around, and she didn't say it clearly, and she had to digest it carefully for a while before she could figure it out.

I figured it out, but I was even more scared......

"I beg Your Highness to save the lives of the slaves...... His Royal Highness asked the slave family to do what he did, and the slave family would do it, and he would definitely cooperate. ”
