.

The elegant man walked down the steps step by step, his bony hand holding a lantern, the red and bright light set off on his face, revealing a bewitching look.

Rong Zhan descended the steps one by one, and the bottom of the steps was much better, not as dark as the one above the steps, but it was not so bright.

He followed the little eunuch who led the way, and stopped after a while.

Standing there in front of me was no one else, none other than His Majesty.

Rong Zhan immediately said goodbye.

The Emperor said, "Get up." ”

Then he looked at Rong Zhan, smiled meaningfully, pointed to the person in prison, and said, "Zhan'er, I don't know if you can explain the situation in front of me to me?" ”

His expression flickered brightly and darkly, but he couldn't see a thought.

Rong Zhan's expression was very ordinary, and he said, "Weichen doesn't know what Your Majesty means. ”

Then he stepped forward and looked at the people of the dungeon.

This person is not an outsider, it is Princess Caidie, Princess Caidie is holding the straw mat there, and she keeps eating it for a while, and when she sees that they are all looking at her, she shows a smile, with a stupid atmosphere.

She shook her head: "What are you doing!" You are the devil. ”

This look, no matter how you look at it, is not a normal person.

Rong Zhan's eyes flashed slightly, and when he turned around, he had regained his composure, he raised the corners of his mouth, and seemed to be smiling: "I don't know what Your Majesty wants me to explain." ”

He said slowly: "I have already handed over Princess Caidie, how she wants to come has nothing to do with me, right?" ”

That's what he said, but the emperor didn't believe it, so decent, why did she suddenly have a problem? A normal person suddenly goes crazy and inevitably makes him suspicious.

The doctor said that there was no poisoning, but the emperor was still not at ease, and now he brought Rong Zhan here just to see his reaction.

.

If Rong Zhan showed surprise, then it would be strange, but he was very calm now, and there was something unclear about the situation.

The emperor said, "Isn't it your ghost? ”

I really asked.

Rong Zhan smiled and said, "I dare to ask Your Majesty, how do I make a ghost." The man has long been handed over to you. If I am a ghost, there must be some proof, right? I didn't have any problems other than almost starving to death when I handed it over to you, did I? How to develop a neuropathy, it's not my responsibility. ”

Rong Zhan handed the red lantern to the little eunuch, stood there with his hands in his hands, and said lightly: "Besides, who knows if this look is really crazy or pretending?" ”

He bowed his head slightly, silent.

His Majesty's scrutinizing eyes suddenly fell on Caidie, who was still eating on the straw mat, dementia.

The emperor said, "Okay, let's go out." ”

Rong Zhan smiled, followed the door, and waited until he got out of the dungeon, the sun was shining, and such a dark, narrow and unventilated dungeon was really uncomfortable.

Even now that the north wind is howling outside, I also feel that the air outside is exceptionally good.

Rong Zhan teased rarely: "If I stay locked up in that eerie dungeon for a long time, I will go crazy thinking about it." ”

His Majesty glanced at Rong Zhan in surprise. However, Rong Zhan quickly said: "Of course, I'm just joking. ”

He looked up at the sky, and the clouds were thick, as if the mountain rain was coming.

The Emperor stood not far behind him, his voice a little fluctuating, and he suddenly asked, "Are you interested in the throne?" ”

asked so bluntly and nakedly, Rong Zhan turned to look at him, with a smile, and said, "Maybe you're interested." ”

The emperor raised his eyebrows: "It's really straightforward." ”

Rong Zhan bowed his head and agreed with this sentence, he said: "I am indeed not a gentleman, just a villain. ”

He smiled and said, "But if you're a villain," he said.

I didn't care about the emperor at all, and I wasn't afraid of what he would do to him because of this.

The emperor looked at the gazebo in front of him and said, "Why don't you go and sit?" ”

Rong Zhan's head said yes.

When the two of them came to the pavilion, someone immediately came to serve, and in a short time, four braziers were placed around, and thick mats and warm tea were almost immediately served.

Rong Zhan said: "This is a little comfortable. ”

The emperor said, "Do you like it?" ”

Rong Zhan bowed, admitted, and said: "I originally liked it very much, and I often did this, but Jiaoyue didn't like me to drink in the ice and snow, so she detained me a little." ”

The emperor looked at Rong Zhan in surprise, but he didn't expect Rong Zhan to say such a thing, not like him at all.

Rong Zhan smiled: "What? Your Majesty doesn't think it looks like me? ”

But that's exactly what happened.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived."

The prince came over like this, just for the queen, no matter what, he couldn't ignore his mother.

The emperor smiled: "It's a coincidence, let him come over." ”

The prince heard that Rong Zhan had entered the palace, although the two had a gentleman's agreement, but it was only for Yingyue and Jiaoyue. As for the rest, they can't afford not to be on guard.

When the prince came to the pavilion, the great eunuch immediately prepared hot tea for him.

On a cold day, take a sip of hot tea, and the whole body is really comfortable.

Since Rong Zhan was there, he didn't mention the queen, but said: "Big brother is interested, come over to drink tea in the morning." ”

Rong Zhan smiled, "The scenery in the palace is always a little different from the scenery in our mansion. ”

The prince raised his eyebrows, and then said, "That's the same." ”

The two of them greeted each other like this, which seemed very ordinary, but the emperor could understand the turbulent undercurrent under the words of the two. Sometimes you don't look at what is said, you can understand a thing or two just by the tone.

The father and son sat together, but there was no sense of friendship.

They are more like kings and ministers than fathers and sons.

The emperor said: "I think you also know, Princess Caidie is now detained in the palace. ”

After a pause, he looked at the two people beside him and said slowly, "What do you think should be done?" ”

The emperor lowered his eyes slightly, and his expression was uncertain when he spoke. Whether it is Rong Zhan or the crown prince, they all understand what His Majesty is really for, and how to deal with Princess Caidie, this is a difficult problem given to them by the emperor.

The prince glanced at Rong Zhan and saw that he was expressionless, as if the things in front of him had nothing to do with him, but more of it made him feel that this person was thinking.

He took the lead and said: "Although Xiliang has not reacted so far, it may not be that she doesn't know where Princess Caidie is, she came to Daqi so blatantly, although she has not been declared, but as a princess, there should be an entourage, I don't believe she will be defenseless." Now that she's been captured, I think there's probably something about it. I, Daqi and Xiliang, have been friendly since the battle twenty years ago. There was some minor friction, but it was generally stable. I think it's very inappropriate to have another incident because of the butterfly incident. Since Caidie has gone a little crazy, it is better to return the person to Xiliang. Or maybe you can sign a contract and get some benefits that you can see. ”

It doesn't matter if you kill someone, it's important to make it possible for this thing to achieve some greater benefits. This is the prince's idea, and he believes that it is also a more reasonable way to deal with it.

Rong Zhan's fingers slid over the cup, it turned out that the prince had also seen the colorful butterflies.

In this way, the emperor had already let them all go to see Caidie, and Rong Zhan was not too surprised by this.

Seeing that the emperor came over, Rong Zhan smiled and said nothing.

The emperor said: "You can tell me your opinion." ”

Rong Zhan raised his head, the benefits did not converge by a point, he said, "Me? If you want me to say, kill her. ”

As soon as these words came out, there was silence all around.

The prince lowered his head, not surprised Rong Zhan to say this, Rong Zhan's hatred of the Xiliang people began from a few years old little doll, such a point of view is difficult to change all at once.

The Emperor nodded on the table and said, "Then tell me what you think." ”

Rong Zhan said: "What the prince said is right, they actually probably knew that Caidie had come to Daqi, and Caidie has not heard from him for so long, and they also know that Caidie has fallen into our hands." But so what? Did the old emperor come to ask for someone? Did Murong Er ask for someone? The drama of his brother-sister love is good, but does he have any other actions? As for Murong Si......"

Rong Zhan's smile became much brighter: "Murong Si looks like a grumpy idiot, but do you think he is one step behind?" There are so many people in their family, and in the end, it is not only him and Murong Er left. Murong Er has been hiding in obscurity, and others don't pay attention. But Murong Si has been in the whirlpool. You believe that the fools in the whirlpool can live well, but I don't believe it. With such a family, they don't care about the life or death of Princess Caidie. I won't start any war rashly because of Princess Caidie, you know, if the war really starts, we will be difficult, and they will also be difficult. That being the case, why should we swap? ”

Speaking of this, he smiled more and said, "Of course, these are based on Xiliang. All of the above is nothing more than high-sounding nonsense. ”

The emperor took a sip of tea in his mouth and almost squirted it out.

He stared at Rong Zhan and almost wanted to hit someone.

Rong Zhan lowered his eyes and said, "The deepest reason why she should die is that she is here for revenge. ”

Rong Zhan laughed suddenly: "No one can say how Qi Yan died at that time, but it is undeniable that he would not have died without us." The reason why Caidie came to Daqi was to avenge Qi Yan. Releasing her is equivalent to letting the tiger return to the mountain. ”

Speaking of this, the emperor's expression really changed, he actually had a plan in his heart for a long time, and asked the two of them at the same time today, just to see that the answer to sleep was more in line with his heart.

He was meaningful: "What else do you think a madman can do?" ”

Rong Zhan spread his hands: "Why not?" I've never underestimated women, and who knows if she's really crazy or pretending to be crazy? If I want revenge, I can become a strategist and stay by Murong Jiu's side for a few years, using Murong Jiu to plot. She's a woman, it's easier to handle, right? Left and right is to kill people and take revenge, in fact, it is not that difficult. In this world, death is not as complicated as you think, what is really complicated is that life is better than death. ”

The crowd fell silent again......
