Chapter Eighty-Four: Flesh Hurts
"You-" The emperor pointed at Ximenyi, "what else do you have to say?" ”
"The retainers were wronged." Ximen Yi still denied it, and said, "You might as well find out the person who kidnapped Su Ran's painting and confront it together!" ”
"Lord Wang, he is following your orders, he must be a strong man under you, shouldn't you hand it over by yourself?" Su Ranhua asked very calmly, and said slowly, "Lord Wang, you really guessed wrong this time." Do you think that the king of the north despises me so much, he will definitely ignore me, as long as he sends people back to the prime minister's mansion at dawn and returns to the palace of the north king on time, it will be fine, and I will definitely not dare to say what happened tonight, and I will be disgusted by the king of the north again. You never thought that the king of the north didn't really give up on me, and found it so quickly. You think you're very capable, but the King of the North shouldn't be underestimated either. ”
A very simple remark showed an arrogant and arrogant Ximen Yi, and also made it clear why he dared to kidnap the emperor's sister-in-law, and at the same time hinted to everyone that Ximen Hao's ability was extraordinary, even above Ximen Yi.
The queen carefully looked at the woman she hated again, and looked at her demeanor and reaction, which could be regarded as clever. It's just that which one is sung in this scene?
Ximen Hao sat there quietly, his deep gaze never left Su Ran's painting, and this accident did receive unexpected results.
Su Ranhua once made an agreement with herself in exchange for her freedom, is this the beginning of her fulfilling the agreement, or is it another calculation of herself?
For the purpose of Su Ranhua's order to marry into the Beiwang Mansion, Ximen Hao could not help but guard against it.
Judging by her performance at this time, if she didn't have the background of Su Luo City, they would definitely be seamless collaborators.
"Ximen Yi, this kind of thing is not once or twice, every time you say that you are wronged, and which time has you really wronged you!" When the emperor had a judgment in his heart and an opinion, the corresponding expression began to appear on his face, and at this time, Long Yan was furious.
"Father!" Ximen Yi shouted loudly.
I did something wrong before, although I didn't admit it at first, but the result would be found out by Ximen Hao and stabbed to the emperor, and then the two sides gradually thought about it, and they formed a secret contest, one was restrained, and the other no longer alarmed the emperor for general things.
This time, Ximen Yi really experienced the taste of being wronged, and he was so angry that he couldn't vent it, let alone argue. I had known that when Ximen Hao saw him staying in Su Ranhua's room with Su Ranhua, he knew that he couldn't escape this catastrophe, so he still thought that Su Ranhua would cooperate with him to resolve the crisis, but who knew that Su Ranhua was actually dealing with him with Ximen Hao.
The emperor hates Ximen Yi's amorous behavior the most, and he hates even more that with his own strength, no one has the attitude of no one in his eyes, he has not gone to the last step, no one has the capital to be arrogant, this son is too disappointing in doing things! In addition, this time there was a scandal of bullying the imperial sister-in-law, even if it was for the sake of the face of the concubine family, I had to teach Ximen Yi a lesson!
So, the emperor looked at it and said, "Concubine Shu, take King Nan back to your Yunxiao Garden and think about it behind closed doors, and you must not take a step in seven days." The capital guards in charge of the southern king were handed over to the northern king, and he couldn't even manage his own behavior, how could he lead the escort to protect the safety of the people! ”
"Your Majesty, no!" When Concubine Shu heard this, she hurriedly got up and knelt down, "Yi'er has only been married for a few months, how can he stay in Yunxiao Garden?" Even if the emperor is strict with the prince, he still has to take care of the daughter of Master Su's family! Tonight's events will surely leave a shadow in Princess Nan's heart, and let them separate the newlyweds for seven days, isn't this to rub salt in their wounds? Anyone who is good with harmony, please be gracious to the emperor! ”
If he was really trapped in the palace, how could Ximen Yi deal with the affairs of his palace in time? This is what Concubine Shu really cares about. The affairs in charge of the Southern Wangfu must not go wrong, not to mention that she should also send Ximen Zhe to Southern Xinjiang under Concubine Yao, and it must not be delayed.
"Regarding Lord Su and Princess Nan, I should indeed consider it," After listening to Concubine Shu's begging, the emperor's majestic eyes swept towards Ximen Yi, "King Nan will go back to the palace and think about it behind closed doors, so that Princess Nan will accompany him." ”
"Emperor Xie!" Listening to the emperor's words, Concubine Shu breathed a sigh of relief, twisted her head, glanced at Su Ran's painting behind her, and her cold eyes were filled with hatred.
Is this a punishment? Su Ranhua ignored Concubine Shu, only thinking about the emperor's words, frowning slightly, this is obviously a disguised way to give Ximen Yi and Su Ranqing the opportunity to be alone, so that Su Ranqing picked up a cheap one to keep Ximen Yi alone in vain, it can be said that it is a blessing in disguise, and she should thank herself in the future. Su Ran couldn't help but think it was funny.
"Is there anything else you'd like to say?" Seeing that Ximen Yi did not respond to his words, the emperor asked in a cold voice.
"Erchen didn't." Ximen Yi suppressed the anger in his stomach and said. He knew that the emperor had spoken, so it was difficult to have room for change, and it was acceptable to return to Nanwangfu from Yunxiao Garden, accompanied by Su Ranqing's stupid beauty, but the guards of the capital-
Ximen Yi hated his teeth when he thought about it, this was the emperor who cut a piece of meat from his body, it hurt very much!
Touching Concubine Shu's gaze, mother and son were connected, and there were some things that didn't need to be said. Since he was a child, Ximen Yi has formed a tacit understanding with Concubine Shu, whenever he has to face punishment for doing something wrong, he will obediently not make a sound, and Concubine Shu will stand up and plead for herself.
This time was no exception.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Concubine Shu turned around and kowtowed to the emperor again and again, "This time Yi'er is in trouble, but this has nothing to do with the escort team, for so many years, the escort team has been strictly governed under Yi'er's hands, and has never made a mistake, and a lot of effort has been put into it. Even if he was beaten and punished, he admitted it. It's just that I can't bear to protect my brothers! ”
"Please also ask the father to fulfill the child's heart!" Ximen Yi also knelt down in response.
"I have made up my mind, and the king of the south will leave the guard for the time being, making time for self-cultivation. I believe that after the Northern King accepts the escort, he will carry forward the strict discipline of the Southern King, and will not disappoint everyone, and will definitely protect the trust of the people of the capital to live and work in peace and contentment. ”
The emperor's answer was very resolute, saying that if he wanted to teach Ximen Yi a lesson, he had to make him feel pain, and being beaten or something was just a pain of flesh and skin, and taking away a team of people and horses could make him feel the pain of seppuku. The capital guards are equivalent to the royal army left behind in the capital, and with it, it is equivalent to controlling half of the capital. In the fierce battle with Ximen Hao, taking away Ximen Yi's escort is like cutting off a piece of his flesh, cutting off a force of his power, and at the same time giving Ximen Hao a momentum, to see if he Ximen Yi still does not restrain his merry nature!
