Chapter 120
Chen Mozhi and Yi'er made an appointment to meet before, but they didn't wait. Later, she asked someone to bring him a message, and she returned to the palace, no wonder she missed the appointment.
And on this day's martial arts exam, he didn't see her in the royal school, and he couldn't help but be disappointed.
Yu Li accidentally fell, but there was no big problem. Li Yuni will never allow her to move anymore. was looked at by her mother like this, she felt that she was making a big fuss, but she didn't dare to say anything.
Dong Xiao's participation in the exam was originally strongly recommended by Guan Liren, but now his appearance has also damaged the interests of some people, and he has been used by others as a person.
Nowadays, in addition to the Shangguan family, the Central Plains Dynasty is dominated by the Jin family, the Chen family, and the Qi family, and the three families in the Central Plains are even more intertwined. Now, with Chen Yin's departure and Chen Mao's death, the Chen family's power in the court is getting weaker and weaker, and the Qi family's maturing wings also pose a threat to the Jin family.
The Jin family's long house frequently travels back and forth in the harem, and the marriage between Shangguan Yulin and Jin Cheng is a matter of certainty. Now there is only one decree missing.
And the Qi family's vision is longer, and the eldest son of the Qi family also participated in the martial arts exam this time, and he must win the first class no matter what, so that he can have the opportunity to ask the emperor for marriage.
And Qi Rui has been Yi'er for a long time, and this time Dong Xiao has become his biggest opponent. Previously, because of Guan Liren's face, and Shangguan Jun's acquiescence, the Qi family didn't dare to do anything to Dong Xiao.
After the results of the martial arts examination in the division came out, Qi Rui celebrated with his friends and accidentally saw Dong Xiao wandering alone on the street. He has also been in the limelight recently, and he is usually either with Guan Feng or with Yu Xian and Yu Lin. Now that he is alone, he can't help but be careful.
left a group of friends and quietly followed Dong Xiao, only then did he discover Dong Xiao's secret. He actually sneaked into the Siguo Pavilion.
He didn't say anything but told his father about it, Qi Yuwu is a scheming person, thinking that he relied on the left and right, as well as the merits he made in quelling the Dali rebellion, to gain a foothold in the court little by little, and now he has won the trust of Shangguan Jun.
And Shangguan Jun's attitude towards Dong Xiao is still incomprehensible, so he doesn't dare to act rashly. Dong Xiao is Qi Rui's biggest competitor again, and now that the top three martial arts players have not officially competed, someone in Shangjing has already made a bet between the two, and Dong Xiao's voice is the highest.
In order to be able to compete with the Jin family, Qi Yuwu also took great pains. Therefore, the champion of martial arts must be Qi Rui's, and he must find ways to remove the obstacles.
So when he seized such an opportunity, he still had to take advantage of it. And if he doesn't come forward, someone else will come forward for him.
Dong Xiao came out of Siguo Pavilion smoothly, and his mood was even more depressed after seeing his parents. Never before desperate to save them. Hatred is surging, and he must save them at all costs.
When he returned to Guanfu, Guan Liren asked where he went, but he had never asked before, and his discipline was very lenient.
This time it was an exception, and Dong Xiao didn't hesitate to "went out with a few friends, I just met." ”
Guan Liren didn't say anything, and stomped his steps with his hands behind his back, "Rest early." The tone was harsher than usual.
Dong Xiao saluted and turned to leave. He didn't notice Guan Liren's sigh. A heart is filled with hatred.
Dong Xiao privately saw that the matter of Dong Yulin and Shangguan Ying was discussed as the martial arts examination became hot.
This incident first had a voice among the people, and I don't know where it came from, saying that Dong Xiao is Dong Yulin's son, and the purpose of the competition is fake, but it is actually to rescue Dong Yulin and Shangguan Ying and his wife.
The grievances between Dong Xiao and Shangguan Jun back then, in the eyes of the people of Shangjing, Dong Yulin was plotting to usurp the throne, and the battle of Luoxia Valley almost killed their emperor that year, which was to punish the nine clans, and Emperor Jingrun only imprisoned the husband and wife with the affection of his brother and sister, so far their son has no news, but he doesn't want to appear in Shangjing more than ten years later.
This is unacceptable to them, and what right does the son of a criminal have to participate in such a martial arts examination.
It was because of the protests one after another, and some people went to the yamen to beat drums and claim that Dong Xiao would be arrested.
Originally, only a few people knew Dong Xiao's identity, but now everyone knows it.
There were also people in the DPRK and China who seconded the proposal to cancel Dong Xiao's qualification, but Shangguan Jun listened to their discussion and said nothing.
He asked Guan Liren in front of everyone what he thought.
Guan Liren also wanted to take this opportunity to explain these things clearly, Dong Xiao, no matter what he thought in his heart, his enlistment in the army, including the competition, was tacitly approved by Shangguan Jun, and those who wanted to make moves behind his back had to see it clearly.
"Xiao'er, I grew up watching him, I still know his temperament, many people here may not know that Xiao'er was brought up by the emperor's sister-in-law."
Some people don't know about the imperial sister-in-law Chu Yunxi, especially the old people in the court, especially those who were promoted from Pingcheng, they still know a little, that can be regarded as a heroine, who has adopted many children, and now some are teaching, and some are famous, which is really a great achievement. As for Dong Xiao's identity, except for the people of the Shangguan family, few outsiders know about it.
Now that I heard about his identity, I was shocked and worried. Someone took advantage of this opportunity to bring up the matter of Dong Xiao's private visit to the Si Guo Pavilion.
Shangguan Jun asked Guan Liren what he thought about this, and he only said to go back to see if it was true. Shangguan Jun didn't say anything, now that the evidence is in the hands of others, how can he investigate.
Before retiring from the dynasty, Shangguan Jun issued an order, and Dong Xiao was banned. Guan Liren wanted to say anything, but he waved his hand to stop him.
Guan Liren returned to the house, and called Dong Xiao to the study, and he was not surprised that he had been talking about his life experience in the capital in the past few days. I never felt that being Dong Yulin's son was a shameful thing.
Guan Liren told him that he was banned, and he didn't say anything. He asked him again if he had any ideas, and he shook his head.
When Yi'er came back, she felt that the atmosphere at home was not right, and she asked Yu Xian what happened, and Yu Xian hesitated to tell her.
"Dong Xiao has been banned."
"How..... What did he do? "Even if it's Dong Yulin's son, what's the matter, the son is the son, the father is the father." Father will not be at the mercy of those people....."
"It's a holy decree from the emperor's uncle." Yu Xian interrupted Yi'er.
"Why? Father will not ..... for no reason"
"Dong Xiao went to Siguo Pavilion."
Yi'er has nothing to say, Si Guoting, these three words are a taboo in the Shangguan family, Dong Xiao is so bold, but she doesn't think he is at fault, the only mistake is that he shouldn't trespass. If he was willing to bow his head and plead, his father would not have given him this face, but he didn't.
Yi'er was in disbelief, and at this moment, Dong Xiao walked in, listened to their discussion, raised his feet and turned around.
Yu Xian stopped him, "Are you okay?" ”
Dong Xiao smiled, "People are swordsmen, and I am fish and meat." "Good or bad, I don't need to say it.
He went to Siguo Pavilion about it, and he thought that he had done it seamlessly, hiding from the world. But he was still discovered, what he didn't know was whether he had been being watched, and thinking of this made his back chill and creepy.
He glanced at Shangguan Yi'er again, and now she and Chen Mozhi were getting closer and closer. He and her were getting farther and farther away. But only he knew that she missed her unforgettable. Every night in the dead of night, when thoughts are surging, he dares to face his heart. I don't know when he couldn't forget her.
"Don't worry, the general will find a way." Yu Lin comforted Dong Xiao.
"I never felt that this identity and this surname was a shame, and my dad was not wrong. If there are people who hold on to my identity, then there is no need, these people are just deceived by the appearance of the victors. He glanced at Shangguan Yi'er again, "Now even if Shangguan Jun is here, I will say the same." My dad was right back then, but he didn't tolerate anyone. ”
Shangguan Yi'er's chest rose and fell when he heard him say this, and he said angrily: "Even if you hate it and don't treat it as a monarch and minister, then he is also your uncle, and you can't change this." Such a direct call to the name of the elder is so secretive that I don't know who taught you. ”
Dong Xiao smiled, "I can't compare with people like you who are born to be disciplined, but I also know that right and wrong are black and white, and men and women are not close to each other." ”
Yi'er's face turned red, he was ashamed of insulting her, and she shouted hatefully, "Someone." ”
Yu Xian pulled her and waved to the guards. Yi'er shook off his arm, "Take him down for Princess Ben." ”
Yu now saw that the big thing was not good, Yi'er had never put pressure on anyone as a princess, and now it was obvious that she was angry. He couldn't be persuaded to move, so he quickly ran away and went to move the rescuers.
Dong Xiao smiled, "Can these people hold me, Shangguan Yi'er, you look down on me too much." ”
Yi'er saw that Dong Xiao had occupied the upper peak, and in a hurry, she called the guards of the Guan Mansion, "Whoever catches her, this princess will be rewarded."
Dong Xiao and Yi'er are both guests of the Guan Mansion, and they can't reach out easily, but Yi'er pressures them as a princess not to stretch out their hands.
"I just want you to know that when you see me, you want to kowtow and say goodbye, and now as the son of your guilty minister, you can't see this princess anyway, but now you not only see me, but also despise me......"
Yi'er's words fell into Dong Xiao's ears word by word, her words pierced her heart like a knife, dripping with blood, and she couldn't breathe in pain.
Distracted, one of the guards reached out and punched him in the abdomen, and he was in pain. He was punched in the face again. It hurt hotly, this punch woke him up, his identity was very different from her, as she said, he was the son of a criminal minister, he and her were separated by a high mountain, across the sea. The court does not agree to their affairs, and the people of the world will not agree. Her father and mother would never agree, and she hated him so much, which was good.
Yi'er looked at Dong Xiao who was beaten and felt inexplicably sad, tears were about to fall, how ugly what he said, why did everyone revolve around him, he did something wrong without fighting and was caught with pigtails and complained.
In the end, Dong Xiao gave up resisting, everyone restrained him and escorted him to Yi'er, one of them told him to kneel, he just refused, with a smile in his eyes, blood flowed from the corners of his mouth, and the clothes on his body were torn, so he looked at Yi'er.
