Chapter 201: Asking for Shelter
When the carriage with the royal marker arrived at the palace, it was already dark.
The road is sparsely populated, and only along the street are the prohibitory guards patrolling the street with lanterns.
"Your Majesty, now the palace is full of Prime Minister Xiao's eyeliner, surrounding the mansion up and down."
"Otherwise, I am afraid that the events of the day will reach him in less than a quarter of an hour."
The housekeeper helped Xu Jing get out of the carriage and reminded him carefully.
Xu Jing nodded slightly: "Do as he says."
After a short time, the accompanying Jinyi guards guarded the two gates behind the money under the command of their own hundred households, and no one was allowed to go out.
"The minion has seen His Highness!"
Watching the housekeeper take Xu Jing and walk quickly towards the dormitory, the eunuchs and maids along the way knelt down and shouted at Xu Jing.
Xu Jing's face was expressionless, he didn't pay attention to these slaves, and just walked quickly in the direction of the dormitory.
"I wonder why His Majesty visited the palace late at night?"
Just before Xu Jing arrived at the courtyard of the dormitory, a middle-aged man with gloomy eyes and a pale cyan sleeved robe stood in front of Xu Jing.
A flash of murderous intent flashed in Xu Jing's eyes and looked at this person: "What? The world is so big, is there any place I can't go? ”
"Bold! Your Majesty is the Ninety-Five, but he is just entering the palace, how dare he stop it? ”
The housekeeper was even more unscrupulous with Xu Jing's support, pointing at the middle-aged man's nose and scolding.
The middle-aged man's face changed slightly, and his eyes stared at the housekeeper coldly: "Your Majesty, it's not that the minister allows Your Majesty to set foot, it's just that the princess has already fallen asleep at the moment, I'm afraid it's inconvenient to let Your Majesty set foot."
"If Your Majesty really wants to see the princess, you can come over early tomorrow."
Obviously, this person was not willing to let Xu Jing meet Xiao Meiniang at all.
Xu Jing sneered and looked at this person with disdain: "What? What am I going to do to get your turn to be blamed? What can you do if I have to meet the princess today? ”
This person was not afraid of Xu Jing at all, took a step forward and said righteously: "The minister is the new housekeeper assigned by the princess, and he should do something for the princess's innocence."
"If Your Majesty has to break into this place today, there will definitely be rumors in the capital tomorrow."
"Come to think of it, this is not a good thing for Your Majesty."
The middle-aged man relied on Xiao Daoling's support and didn't take Xu Jing in his eyes at all.
even dared to threaten Xu Jing with the fact that Xu Jing and Xiao Meiniang met late at night.
"What? Your master didn't teach you, I don't care about this kind of thing? ”
"If you dare to stand in front of me, think about what will happen next."
Xu Jing said expressionlessly, the killing intent in his eyes had long been unable to look at him.
A mere palace housekeeper dares to block his way, if it spreads, the world will think that he Xu Jing is just a timid and cowardly little person.
Seeing the killing intent in Xu Jing's eyes increasing more and more, this person was terrified.
He is just a marginal person cultivated by Xiao Daoling in a small courtyard on the outskirts of Beijing.
I have only heard of Xu Jing's existence, but I have not really seen Xu Jing's thunderous methods.
Otherwise, he would never dare to stop in front of Xu Jing.
"Your Majesty, please retreat. It is not a pity that the minister died alone, but if the innocence of His Majesty and the princess is pulled for this, I am afraid that something is wrong. ”
"Your Majesty, please think twice."
This person trembled and gritted his teeth and took another step forward, as if he really wanted to carry out the matter of blocking Xu Jing to the end.
"Good, good! It's been a long time since anyone dared to be so disobedient. ”
"It seems that there are not many people, you people are about to forget, I have never been a soft-hearted person."
As he spoke, Xu Jing pulled out the narrow knife on the waist of the brocade guard.
Frightened, the middle-aged man took a few steps back, his eyes full of panic.
Xu Jing didn't act like Xiao Daoling said at all, but like a decisive king.
He hurriedly shouted: "Your Majesty, do you really want to kill the minister? The minister is ......."
Before the man could finish speaking, the knife had already fallen, leaving a deep blood mark on the man's neck.
To death, the man's eyes widened, and his face was full of disbelief.
He couldn't believe that Xu Jing would really kill him, and he didn't expect Xu Jing to kill people so easily.
"An ant dares to stop me? Get people out. ”
Xu Jing stuck the knife in the man's chest and commanded the brocade guard behind him.
The brocade guard bowed his head and didn't say a word.
"You're staying here, too."
Xu Jing said sideways at the official who wanted to follow him into the courtyard together.
The butler could only smile awkwardly, standing in place with nowhere to put his hands.
"Princess Qi Xiao Meiniang has seen Your Majesty."
Xu Jing pushed the door and walked into the dormitory, and Xiao Meiniang said carefully to Xu Jingshi.
"Get up, you don't have to make this big gift when you enter Beijing and are pregnant with Liujia."
Xu Jing stepped forward quickly to support Xiao Meiniang and said softly.
"Your Highness, did you just kill someone?"
Xiao Meiniang smelled the bloody breath on Xu Jing's body, and subconsciously took half a step back, full of suspicion on her face.
Xu Jing sat down calmly and looked at Xiao Meiniang: "It's just an uninteresting waste, and if you kill it, you will kill it."
"But you, why did you make an appointment with me late at night?"
Xiao Meiniang looked embarrassed, sat on a chair on one side and asked tentatively: "Why did Your Majesty rush to the palace tonight?" Is it to kill the concubine and kill the mouth, or to save people? ”
】
Xu Jing had a playful smile on his face, and asked lightly: "Then what does the princess think this palace will come for today?"
"Just ask Your Majesty not to come to kill people."
Xiao Meiniang sighed in her heart, and got up helplessly and said.
Xu Jing shook his head, looking at Xiao Meiniang's eyes full of pity: "This palace is here, naturally it will not be to kill people, and please Princess Xiao don't have to be so tempted."
"If you want me to make a promise, I can arrange a place for this child when he is born in the future, but I'm afraid I won't be able to do it."
Xiao Meiniang's eyes flashed, she shook her head and laughed at herself with a little grievance: "The concubine is just a princess, but you are the emperor of the dynasty, how dare you ask for the so-called fame?"
"Please come to your majesty tonight, but I just ask your majesty to take shelter."
"If Your Majesty finds this matter quite difficult, it is okay for me and this child to escape from the capital incognito."
Xu Jing could see that Xiao Meiniang complained that she didn't recognize anyone when she put on her pants.
I could only shake my head and smile bitterly: "Princess Xiao has misunderstood, I am definitely not a merciless person, and I will not just ignore this matter."
"As for the escape, the princess can rest assured, although I can't give this child any name, I can still do it to ensure the peace of his life."
"This is enough, the concubine hereby thanks Your Majesty for your great kindness."
Xiao Meiniang smiled bitterly and nodded, got up to salute again.
"No, the princess just needs to take care of her body. After tonight, I will arrange for my cronies to take care of the Princess's daily life. ”
Xu Jing stepped forward quickly to support Xiao Meiniang and said lightly.
