Chapter 254: Huo Yan eats deflated
The Minister of Fire City is embarrassed to die.
On one side is the lord of Huacheng, and on the other side is his own master.
He did not dare to offend either side.
Compared with the measurement, it is naturally the friendship between the city-states that is more important, but Huo Yan's temperament ...... The Minister of Fire City didn't dare to persuade anything.
Huo Yan didn't care about that, "Okay, if it has something to do with your prince of Huacheng, how does the lord of Huacheng plan to deal with it?" Give him to me? β
"Yes, then if you don't have evidence, you can go back to Huacheng with me, and this life will be at my disposal, what do you think?" Shen Qiyan asked back with the way of others.
Huo Yan choked and retorted, "How can I, the heir of the Fire City, hand over my life to the outer city!" β
"Then I, the prince of Huacheng, why should I let you deal with it?" Shen Qiyan laughed, "Could it be that you still want to find evidence and punish me as the prince of Huacheng, and if you can't find evidence, treat it as if nothing happened?" Does your country think that my flower city is easy to bully? β
Huo Yan naturally wanted to trouble Yu Zheng, but he was also afraid that he would be beaten upside down if he couldn't find evidence.
The Minister of Fire City came out with a smile and worked hard to play a round, "Lord Flower City, you see that today is a special day, it is a big day in Water City, our two cities are in trouble here, is it not good, otherwise we will treat each other as if this incident has not happened, okay?" β
Huo Yan turned his head and glared at the minister, obviously dissatisfied, but the minister grabbed Huo Yan's arm and shook his head at him.
Shen Qiyan originally planned to frustrate Huo Yan's sharpness, but as a result, when he saw Huo Yan like this, Shen Qiyan's eyes narrowed, "Okay, this matter is in the past, but he can't get over the matter of looking down on my Huacheng and Shuicheng women, he must apologize." β
The Minister of Fire City was completely speechless.
Huo Yan gritted his teeth, "Okay, if the prince of Huacheng let me fall into the pond, I will apologize to you." β
"Nope." Shen Qiyan shook his head with a light smile, "You want to apologize to us, and apologize to the woman because if you commit a crime, it has nothing to do with whether you fall into the pond or not." β
Most of the people at the scene were the courtiers of Shuicheng.
At the beginning, they were all hindered by their identities, and they only discussed in private, without saying anything clearly, but now that Shen Qiyan is taking the lead, they are beginning to speak one after another.
"Yes, if the Fire Prince doesn't look down on our woman, how can our princess bear the congratulations of the Fire City."
"If according to the words of the Fire Prince, can we men in Water City also go and attack the women of Fire City? But we won't, because we know it's rude, disrespectful. β
"Respect is mutual, and if the Fire Prince treats us like this, we also need to reconsider our attitude towards Fire City."
More and more people spoke out, and the Minister of Fire City and Huo Yan sensed that something was wrong, and the situation gradually became serious and began to get out of control.
The minister of Fire City had no choice but to persuade Huo Yan, "Prince, why don't you apologize, if this matter is reported back to Fire City, the city lord will definitely be furious, these are small things, if the relationship between the city-states is not harmonious and causes a war, then the problem will be big." β
But Huo Yan didn't want to just admit defeat like this, except for Shui Miaomiao, no one would ever target him like this, but Huo Yan clearly remembered that the angle of kicking him at that time was from top to bottom.
According to Shui Miaomiao's height, he would not kick him at such an angle at all, and the only possibility was that Shui Miaomiao took Yu Zheng there.
Anyway, it is the way to apologize to one person, and it is also the way to apologize to two people, Huo Yan gritted his teeth, "Okay!" Then let's find evidence, as long as someone proves that Shui Miaomiao and the prince of Huacheng targeted me together, then they will apologize to me in public, if not, I will apologize to them! β
"Okay." Shen Qiyan nodded, looked around, and raised his voice, "Has anyone seen the Lord of Miao Miao and my Lord of Huacheng kick the Fire Prince off the pond together?" β
There was no sound all around.
Huo Yan was annoyed, "Most of the people here are from Shuicheng!" If you ask like this, where will anyone say! What's more, the pond is outside, and the people here are sitting in position, where will they see! β
"Oh? So why did the Fire Prince go out? Yu Zheng spoke at the right time.
Shui Miaomiao agreed, "Yes, why are you going out?" β
Huo Yan: "You can both go out, why can't I go out?" β
He wouldn't say to his face that he wanted to follow the two of them and watch them go out.
"The two of us go out on our own merits." Shui Miaomiao's eyes were white, "Why do I need to tell you when I go out?" β
"Look! You see! Huo Yan complained to Shen Qiyan, "Look, she doesn't dare to say what she's going out for, there must be a ghost here." β
"It's about privacy! It's hard to say. Shui Miaomiao still didn't say.
Shen Qiyan was a little confused, Shui Miaomiao could completely talk about a reason, and talking like this gave people some room for imagination.
But Yu Zheng sat there calmly, and Shen Qiyan felt a lot more relieved in his heart, and it seemed that he was strategizing.
Huo Yan snorted when she heard Shui Miaomiao talk about privacy, "Then I'm also more private, and I won't say it." β
Things were at an impasse in an instant.
Many pairs of eyes are fixed on the situation in front of them.
Shen Qiyan spoke up: "So why did you say that the two of them kicked you off the pond as soon as you came back, and what evidence do you have?" β
"I saw the two of them go out!" Huo Yan didn't say that he was following the two of them, and changed his normal-sounding tone, "I happened to run into the two of them outside when I was going out." β
"I don't know much about the buildings in Shuicheng Palace, there are twists and turns here, I can't go out, I saw Shui Miaomiao and thought about going out with her by the way."
"As a result, she and the prince of Huacheng disappeared at a corner, and it just so happened that at this time, someone kicked me from behind and kicked me into the pond, this must be them, is there anyone else besides them?"
"So you didn't see the two of them kick you down." Shen Qiyan grasped the key point, and his smile became thicker, "The Fire Prince's subjective assumptions are too serious, and he didn't even see it. β
"Then if I fall into the pond now, can I say a word, is it because you pushed me down?"
Huo Yan was angry to death, but he couldn't say why.
Shui Miaomiao looked at Huo Yan and snickered, she suddenly understood the feeling that Yu Zheng said, it was so cool!!
Looking at Huo Yan's appearance, it was much more relieving than the two of them who had made a lot of noise before.
The consequence of making a big fuss will only be that both of them will be angry.
Far less effective than it is now.
"Isn't there surveillance here?" Huo Yan was so angry, "Or ask the maid who was guarding there at the time, but you must not reveal it in advance, you must ask temporarily, otherwise the maid in Shuicheng will definitely help Shui Miaomiao." β
Shuicheng's minister in charge of this banquet, Lady Zhang, also came out.
The female officer asked, "May I ask where you fell in the pond?" β
Huo Yan couldn't name it, but could only describe the general direction, and the eldest female officer thought for a moment, "Oh, I probably know the pond you mentioned, but the one close to the county lord's dormitory is not monitored." β
As soon as he heard the last few words, Huo Yan's brain turned white, and his anger instantly surged up, pointing at Shui Miaomiao and scolding, "Damn, Shui Miaomiao, you just did it on purpose!" You know there's no surveillance, and you're deliberately directing me there! β
"I can't say that, I can only control my own behavior, I can't control your behavior, how can I know if you go there by yourself." Shui Miao Miao got up, "Huo Yan, don't be unreasonable, it is originally close to my dormitory, how can there be any reason to install surveillance next to my dignified county main palace?" Staring at me? You followed me yourself, fell into the pond, and blamed me? β
"Then since this is your dormitory, how can you take a man to your place of residence! Don't you understand the difference between men and women? How dare you, as an unmarried woman, take an unmarried man to your place in such a disregard for your chastity? β
Shui Miao smiled sarcastically, "Prince of Fire, do you regard my Water City as your Fire City?" We don't have so many rules in Shuicheng, besides, we are all women who open a harem, don't say that I brought someone into my dormitory today, even if I bring a group of people, what can you do with me? β
"After all, Fire Prince, you are still dissatisfied with our system of respecting women in Shuicheng, and you always think that men are respected."
The question was led here again, and the Minister of Fire City was simply numb, and as soon as he heard this topic, he was two heads at a time.
Huo Yan didn't want to mention this topic either, "You just said what you were doing when you went back to the dormitory for no reason?" There must be a reason, you can't tell you that you did it on purpose! β
"I said this involves privacy!" Shui Miaomiao was also a little annoyed.
The atmosphere around is getting more and more agitated.
"I'm sorry, Sister Miao Miao, it's all my fault." Huo Xuanxuan, the princess of Huocheng, suddenly got up and admitted her mistake, "It's me who is not good, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have gone out, my brother wouldn't have misunderstood, and the two sides wouldn't have caused conflicts." β
"What are you doing out of here?" Huo Yan looked at Huo Xuanxuan, and the already annoying emotions suddenly found an outlet, "What's your business?" β
"Huo Yan, your brain is fine, your sister is talking for you!" Shui Miaomiao is the most disgusted with men who bully girls.
Huo Xuanxuan is obviously used to being bullied, even if she is scolded in front of so many people, her emotions do not fluctuate much, but it involves her own privacy, the roots of her ears are a little red, she lowered her head, "I'm sorry brother, it was because I was ...... I'm having my period...... There was only one woman close to the county lord, so I wanted to ask her for a favor......"
"When the county lord got up, he accidentally knocked over the cup on the table, and the water spilled on the prince's body, so the county lord took the prince to her bedroom."
"The county lord just said privacy...... It's because I'm here for my period. β
Huo Xuanxuan naturally knew that if he said it to his face, it would make Huo Yan unable to come to the stage, so Huo Xuanxuan saluted Shen Qiyan, "Lord Huacheng, all these misunderstandings started because of Xuan Xuan, and Xuan Xuan apologized to everyone instead of his brother." β
"No......" with ......
Shen Qiyan didn't say anything, Huo Xuanxuan had already knelt down in front of one place, bowed, and then bowed to the surroundings in turn.
Huo Xuanxuan is a princess anyway, and she bows down to many people whose status is lower than her regardless of her status, and everyone can't say anything anymore.
Shen Qiyan didn't want to embarrass a little girl.
sighed, bent down and helped Huo Xuanxuan up, "It's okay, since all the misunderstandings have been explained." β
"Thank you, Lord Flower City."
Shen Qiyan raised his eyes and looked at Huo Yan, "Now you know, everything is excusable, why did you go to that pond, now we don't care, as for why you fell into the pond, there is no conclusion, you can be said to be pushed, others can also say that you deliberately framed, but there is no evidence for all this, but since the princess took the initiative to apologize, we will also take it as a turning page." Prince of Fire, what do you think? β
Huo Yan moved his mouth, but he couldn't say anything.
The Minister of Fire City immediately climbed down the pole, "Thank you to the Lord of Flower City for coming forward to preside over this matter, since everything is a misunderstanding, we will treat it as if it never happened." β
When the words fell, the Minister of Fire City immediately bowed around, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry to disturb everyone, please understand." β
The woman is the most considerate of the woman, although everyone present knows that the main problem is not Huo Xuanxuan's body, but after all, Huo Xuanxuan will always stay in the Fire City in the future, if this matter continues to be entangled, she may have to suffer more sins when she returns to the Fire City in the future.
Everyone didn't care about anything anymore, and they all passed it as a matter of time.
After the banquet.
The first thing Huo Yan did when he returned to his residence was to slap Huo Xuanxuan hard, "I brought you here to give your mother who died early a little face, are you really a princess?" β
Huo Xuanxuan's eyes were filled with tears for a moment, but she tried to restrain herself, and she knelt on the ground, "Brother...... Brother I'm sorry, Xuan Xuan just saw that the form was wrong at the time and wanted to divert everyone's attention. β
Huo Yan couldn't see Huo Xuanxuan's appearance of looking so aggrieved but forbearing, as if someone else had bullied her, but her father ate this! Every time I saw Huo Xuanxuan with such an expression, I scolded him.
Huo Yan has been unhappy with Huo Xuanxuan for a long time, and today his father is not around, Huo Yan looked at Huo Xuanxuan and showed such an expression, and he raised his foot and wanted to kick it hard.
Seeing this, the minister hurriedly rushed up and hugged Huo Yan, stopping his actions, "Prince! Prince! You calm down, after all, if you are outside, if you hit the princess with any wounds, it will not be good for others to see it, and it will damage the face of our Fire City. β
"You still have the face to open your mouth to Lao Tzu, what are you doing at the banquet today? Don't you see others bullying me! You bow to them and apologize to them! I think that the lord of the flower city is obviously a raccoon dog with the water city! They're womenβhmm! Before Huo Yan finished speaking, the minister covered his mouth with a look of panic.
The minister was really panicked, "Prince! You must not say anything like that again. This is the water city, and there are their eyeliner everywhere, if these words are passed again, it will inevitably affect the relationship between the city-states! I beg you to stop talking! β
"Today, the princess came forward to help you admit your mistake, the princess is unwell, don't beat and scold her."
Everyone in Fire City knows that the Lord of Fire City loves Huo Xuanxuan's daughter very much, otherwise he would not have sent her a woman on such an important occasion.
The minister is really caught in the middle.
On the one hand, the prince who will inherit the position of the city lord in the future, and on the other hand, the beloved daughter of the city lord, he is a minister who has managed to climb to his current position, where can he compare to these people who were born so noble!
can only be caught in the middle and struggle to survive.
Fortunately, after just getting Huo Yan's two feet, he was driven out by Huo Yan.
The minister took advantage of the situation and came out with Huo Xuanxuan.
It was a fight that was stopped.
