It wasn't until this moment that I understood why I was shocked by the majesty when I saw him for the first time, and I thought it was the aura of an old general, but it turned out to be the power of an emperor. He has fought on the battlefield for many years, and he stands in the highest position, and even a single look can make the people below tremble when he raises his hand and every move.

I don't know how long I waited, I finally saw him put down the scroll and slowly raised his head, his eyes were like a torch, and he couldn't describe the look at this moment, to be precise, his eyes should be like a knife, and he felt a stinging pain on his body.

I just heard him order lightly: "Tell me what's going on." ”

What do you want me to say? When he approached this door, he knew that what Ah Ping thought was to deceive himself and others, or Ah Ping knew that he couldn't hide it from his imperial grandfather, but he still insisted on going to the end. The old man sitting on the high seat had already seen everything, but now he called me to talk to me.

After a deep groan, I asked softly: "I don't know if the emperor wants to start from the day I met you, or from the Ma family in Haozhou?" ”

He raised his eyebrows and said lightly: "Anyway, it's fine, just say that after seeing me that day." Ping'er is so bold and reckless, deceiving his superiors and subordinates, he should let him taste some hardship. ”

When I heard this, I immediately regretted it, why didn't I think about Ah Ping who was still kneeling outside? But the words had already gone out and couldn't be taken back, so he could only bow his head and bend his knees: "Yes." On my way back that day, I met a group of black-clad killers in the woods a few miles from the village......"

Try to make a long story short, but there are many unspeakable things in it, such as Zhu Di who is known as Lu Feng. I don't know if I can tell him about Zhu Di, the key is that Zhu Di is definitely not good at telling my thoughts at this time, so I can only vaguely mention that I once saved the life of the bandit leader, and took me all the way north to escape from the pursuit of officers and soldiers. When I woke up, I became the daughter of the Ma family, and I was in a state of confusion during the whole process.

Except for the matter of hiding Zhu Di and Zhu Gaoxu, I didn't hide the rest. I feel that since Zhu Yuanzhang has already asked, he has already measured it in his heart, and even he has already investigated it clearly, and it will only backfire if he conceals it.

Zhu Yuanzhang was not in a hurry to ask after listening, and there was no joy or anger in his calm expression, the more he was like this, the more uneasy it became. After a while, he spoke: "In this way, this bastard thing is all done by Ping'er alone, and it has nothing to do with you?" My heart sank when I heard this, why did this sound like I was deliberately distancing myself from the relationship?

I know very well that every word I say at this moment is very important, and a thought of heaven and hell is probably the same, and I don't have too long to think about it, so I can only respond after a simple measurement in my mind: "Your Majesty, the women dare not say that this matter has nothing to do with me at all, and the thoughts that Ah Ping upholds are nothing more than not wanting to bear me." And he also knew that he had committed a great sin by doing so, so he immediately came to you to plead guilty, and his loyalty to the king should be clear. ”

"Zhongjun?" Zhu Yuanzhang raised his voice and repeated these two words, his eyes were cold: "I see that he is ignoring the government for the sake of his children's private affairs, and I said last time that there should be no one by his side who can influence him." Originally, I only thought that Ping'er was obsessed with you for a while, but now it seems that it is not only as simple as being obsessed, he is simply ecstatic! As he spoke, the scroll on the table was pushed down by him and smashed at my feet, and although they were all rolls of paper, they still hurt faintly at my ankles.

Seeing this, the old eunuch standing on the side was so frightened that he prostrated on the ground and shouted: "The emperor is angry!" ”

Seeing that I was still standing there stiffly, I turned my head and reminded in a low voice: "Niangniang, don't kneel down and beg the emperor to calm his anger." ”

I paused for a moment, lowered my head, and finally bent my knees to the ground. If it is the original, I can kneel to heaven and earth, and I can kneel to my parents, why do I need to kneel for the rest of the people? But in this era of feudal dynasty, I still walked into this hall, and the original concepts had to be polished off little by little, and I had to bow to the word respect and humility. But when I think about it from another angle, he is Ah Ping's grandfather, and it is reasonable for me to kneel, so I don't feel so awkward.

An angry order came from above: "Go and call that unfilial grandson in!" ”

"Yes, the old slave will go."

Listening to the steps of the old eunuch leaving, he wondered if this was another form of pardon? Soon there was movement behind me, until I was beside me, and I could see that it was really Ah Ping, who did not come to see me, but knelt straight on the ground and said, "Grandfather Huang, it is Ping'er who is guilty." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted and asked, "What are you guilty of?" ”

"The grandson brought Alan into the palace without telling the emperor's grandfather."

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyebrows widened: "Are you bringing people in?" You are clearly cutting first and then playing, and you can play Li Dai Taostiff! As he spoke, he seemed to be angry, grabbed an object on the table and threw it this way.

I can see clearly, flying inkstone and pen, the pen is not enough, but the inkstone is a very heavy stone, instinctively want to raise my hand to block for Ah Ping, but my hand only moved once and was pressed. And in this moment, only a bang was heard from the side, and in the low-hanging view was an inkstone that had fallen to the ground, and the ink was sprinkled around.

As if in slow motion, he turned his head over his head, and then slowly raised his gaze. At first glance, the handsome face was splashed with ink from the forehead to the face, but when you looked closely, you could see that there was red oozing out of the black juice on the corner of the forehead.

"Ah Ping, your head?" I couldn't contain my emotions.

After my voice came out, the old eunuch immediately raised his voice and shouted: "Oh no, Your Highness's head is broken!" Yu Guangzhong saw Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting behind the table, stood up, but did not come forward, but just stood behind the table and watched from afar.

But Ah Ping still stiffened his bones and said, "It's okay." ”

The old eunuch probed over and looked at it: "The mouth is quite big, and the blood will not stop, ...... the emperor?"

I couldn't help but look at him gratefully, although I had never seen him before today, but just by his actions just now, I knew that he was helping Ah Ping. But the companion is like a companion tiger at the moment, only to see Zhu Yuanzhang, who was still looking very nervous, said angrily after a while: "It's just a little bit of skin, do you need to make such a fuss?" I still have something to ask, Ping'er, ...... you"

Before he finished speaking, Ah Ping suddenly fell upside down towards me, and instinctively opened his hand to catch him, causing him to bend in the crook of my arm. His gaze was sloppy, and his speech became weak: "Imperial grandfather, I may not be able to listen to your teachings for the time being. ”

"Your Majesty, Your Highness has been kneeling in the scorching sun outside the palace for almost four hours before, and now it's probably not good to break your head and bleed again." The old eunuch's timely words finally made Zhu Yuanzhang unable to calm down, and he waved his big hand and shouted angrily: "Then what nonsense, don't you go to the Imperial Doctor soon!" ”

The old eunuch didn't say much and ran out, and when he got to the door, he shouted: "Your Highness is injured, go to the Imperial Doctor quickly." ”

When he came back, he brought a few little eunuchs in, and asked Zhu Yuanzhang first: "Your Majesty, do you want to send His Royal Highness back to the Ping Hall first?" But it was vetoed: "If you want to move anything, you will seek medical treatment on my side, and move to the soft collapse first." ”

Under such an order, the crowd did not dare to have any more objections. The soft collapse behind the screen should be Zhu Yuanzhang's usual resting place when he was tired of watching the recital, and he retreated after seeing them lift Ah Ping up and lie down, while Zhu Yuanzhang was anxiously pacing back and forth beside the collapse, but no one suggested that he would help Ah Ping wash off the ink and blood on his face first.

After waiting for a while, I couldn't help it: "Your Majesty, don't you make a basin of water to help Ah Ping wash his face first?" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang turned his head to look at me when he heard this, and then glared at the eunuch next to him angrily: "What are you all doing standing here stupidly?" Why don't you go get some water! This scolding scolded the several people who were standing stiffly and ran out, and the old eunuch came out at the right time to ease the atmosphere: "The emperor is not angry, these people below are so anxious that they don't know what to do when they see that His Highness is injured." ”

Finally, the water came quickly, and the little eunuch brought it in and did not send it to the collapse side but to see the emperor's reaction.

"Hurry up and clean Ping'er." Zhu Yuanzhang gave me an order.

Although he was surprised, he didn't want to think about it, he stepped forward and sat down next to Ah Ping, and when he wrung up the towel to wipe it, Ah Ping, who was already unconscious, opened his eyes slightly. The light in his eyes was not at all as sloppy as just now, but clear.

I was shocked, and I couldn't believe his boldness, and I dared to lie in front of his grandfather! Subconsciously moved his body away, obscuring his grandfather's gaze, glaring at him fiercely, only to see that he was still grinning at me without knowing whether he was alive or dead.

After wiping away the dirt mixed with the ink and blood, he found that the wound on his forehead was not small, and the blood was still oozing out. At this time, there was finally the sound of hurried footsteps outside the hall, and someone was summoning the arrival of the imperial doctor, and I saw that Ah Ping immediately closed his eyes obediently, as if nothing had happened before.

I was so angry and funny, but my face tensed again as I stepped away from the collapse.
