Chapter 61: Bet Again
He opened his mouth, just as he was about to say something.
However, how could the two who were angry notice his expression?
Xiao Ze said coldly: "Whether I framed it, or whether the emperor's uncle has another conspiracy, just wait for my father to go out of the city to see it!" ”
"You ......"
Xiao Jingxing pretended to be "angry", as if he was really angry with his nonsense.
At this time, Yun Tianyue came out at the right time to play a round game.
"Okay, okay, it's all a family, why are you so angry?"
She helped Xiao Jingxing, smoothed his chest for him, and then looked at Xiao Ze and said, "Fourth prince, the princess and I have been busy comforting refugees and treating patients recently, why didn't you come out and say anything at that time?" ”
"Isn't it nonsense that there are rumors in the city that the prince and I did not cure the sick and sent the seriously ill patients outside the city, causing a refugee riot? Not to mention such a big thing, if it really happened, why wouldn't we report it to the emperor, just say that there was a riot in the refugees in the capital, and the prince and I would hide it, and He Fu Yin would not hide it, right? Why didn't he report to the emperor? ”
Next to him, when He Fuyin heard Yun Tianyue's words, his face turned pale, and cold sweat was about to fall.
The gods fight, and the pond fish are affected, he doesn't know anything, he is a miscellaneous man.
But in the face of Yun Qiyue's gaze, he could only bow his head and say: "Yes, Your Majesty, everything has been fine in the refugee camp recently, and there is no riot." ”
However, his "weak-hearted" appearance fell into Xiao Ze's eyes, and he felt more and more suspicious.
He sneered: "Since there was no riot, what is He Fu Yin shaking?" ”
He Fu Yin was stunned for a moment, looked down at his trembling legs, and reluctantly smiled: "Wei, Weichen was infected with rheumatism when he was young, and this leg and leg are rheumatism. ”
The ridicule on Xiao Ze's face was even worse, "Lord He is only thirty years old this year, he has such a heavy rheumatism at such a young age, and he has to work hard for the country, it is really admirable." ”
The sweat on He Fu Yin's face flowed faster, he quickly wiped his sweat, and said in a low voice: "Thank you for the praise of the four princes, Weichen serves the emperor, it is all deserved, it should be ......"
Xiao Ze was too lazy to look at the humble and timid He Fuyin again, and turned to the emperor and said: "Father, the princess and the Nine Emperor Uncles are full of mistakes and omissions, and the sons dare to pack tickets, there must be problems outside the city, and I ask my father to move to the patrol." ”
Yun Tianyue also hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the courtiers dare to guarantee with the head of the Xiangshang, there is absolutely no problem outside the city." ”
"Father's ......"
"The Emperor's ......"
"Father's ......"
"The Emperor's ......"
The two of you said a word, and the quarrel made the emperor's brain hurt.
The emperor couldn't bear it anymore and said directly: "Okay! Don't argue. ”
The two of them suddenly shut up and fell silent.
The emperor looked at Xiao Jingxing angrily, "Old Jiu, what do you say?" ”
Xiao Jingxing hooked his lips slightly.
"Of course I'm on the side of the princess, the refugees are settled by the king and the princess, whether there is a problem or not, the king knows very well, but since the fourth prince has always said that the refugees outside the city have problems, and if he doesn't let him see it with his own eyes, he is afraid that he will not give up."
"But if it's so easy for him to see it with his own eyes, will anyone be able to stand up and question my work and the princess's work in the future? If that's the case, then can this thing still be done? Do we have to be busy explaining other people's doubts every day instead of doing what we should have done? In the long run, who else would dare to take on this kind of work? Everyone has the attitude that if you don't do it, you won't be wrong, can anyone in the court of my Dayuan Dynasty dare to do things? ”
The Emperor was stunned for a moment and nodded.
"You're right, what do you think it should be?"
Xiao Jingxing said: "You might as well let the fourth prince make a bet with us, didn't he say that there is a problem outside the city?" Then let him take the imperial brother to see it with his own eyes, if there is no problem, the four princes will voluntarily leave something as a bet, if there is a problem, the princess and I will be at the disposal of the imperial brother and the four princes. ”
The Emperor's jaw.
"That's fine."
Xiao Ze was stunned.
Bet?
What to bet on?
The emperor also asked, "What are you betting on?" ”
Xiao Jingxing smiled faintly.
"I heard that the fourth prince voluntarily cut his finger for the princess of this king, the princess is very happy, in order to make the princess happy again, why don't we bet on it again this time, how about it?"
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Ze suddenly "chuckled" in his heart.
Subconsciously took care of his nine fingers.
The picture of the last broken finger is still vivid, and the wound has not healed until now, let him cut his finger again? How is this possible?!
Aren't these two crazy?
However, the next sentence made Xiao Ze no longer able to refuse.
Xiao Jingxing said lightly: "If we lose, in addition to letting the imperial brother and the four princes punish them arbitrarily, I will also cut off one finger to show that I will make amends to the four princes, how about it?" ”
Xiao Ze was stunned, and his pupils dilated suddenly.
Let Xiao Jingxing cut off his fingers?!
Is this true?
If it really can, then wouldn't he have a chance to avenge his previous severed fingers?
Xiao Ze is not stupid, he knows the importance of Xiao Jingxing to his father, even if he finds out that there is a problem outside the city in the end, his father will never kill Xiao Jingxing because of a refugee, and in the end it is very likely that he will pick it up again and put it down gently, and in the end there will be nothing going on in the Regent's Mansion.
Therefore, the bet of severed fingers is more practical and attractive than those false punishments.
Xiao Ze swallowed hard.
looked at Xiao Jingxing and said, "Nine Emperor Uncle shouldn't break his word, right?" ”
Xiao Jingxing swore lightly, "If you regret it, you will never be reincarnated!" ”
Xiao Ze laughed and nodded heavily, "Okay, I'll bet!" Father, son, I'll take you out. ”
The emperor was stunned, and before he could react, he realized how the two of them had negotiated a bet.
He subconsciously frowned, feeling that the bet of breaking a finger was too good, not to mention a family, if you break one finger of mine, I will break one finger of yours, what is it like?
However, Xiao Ze had already led the horse in a hurry.
Xiao Jingxing also turned around and rode on his tall horse.
Everyone was waiting for him, as if there was no objection to the bet.
In the end, the emperor could only shake his head helplessly and sighed: "Since this is the case, let's get started." ”
"Get up - open the gates!"
The eunuch sang loudly, only to hear a majestic horn sound, the heavy city gate was slowly opened by the guards, and the emperor was escorted by Xiao Jingxing and Xiao Ze in a carriage, striding out of the city.
Yun Tianyue didn't follow, but stood on the side of the city gate.
When they were completely out, they curled the corners of their lips and said to the people around them: "Okay, let's continue to see the patient." ”
With that, he turned and walked to the other side.
And outside the city.
The emperor got out of the carriage, and saw that there were tents set up for miles outside the city, and when he opened the curtain and walked into one of the tents, he saw that a family of refugees was wrapped in quilts and playing cards inside, and there was a small stove burning in the middle.
