Chapter 2: Oh, my blanket

"Quick, put this thief to death!"

Empress Zhang was furious, grabbed the cup next to her and threw it over.

"Hah, I can't beat it!" Zhou Qi pretended to be relaxed, but in fact, he was full of cows and panicked inside.

When the forbidden army saw the queen's signal, they were relieved, and quickly came to Zhou Qi, and the knife had already come to the front.

"You dare!"

Zhou Qi suddenly burst out, stood on the table, changed his normalcy, and shouted angrily, like a monstrous sound, like a king.

Not only the guards of the forbidden army, but even Empress Zhang was startled by this roar.

But it was only a pause, and Zhou Qi still couldn't escape death.

"Kill", the queen gave another order.

"Wait!"

The commander of the forbidden army arrived here in less than a moment, and the guards didn't know that this was the prince, but he had been guarding the palace for many years, and of course he knew the crazy prince.

If the prince is suddenly killed by his own men, even if the queen orders to kill, he will not be able to escape the blame, the emperor blames him, he is not the one who suffers from his flesh and skin, and the head is different, after all, the king's heart is unpredictable!

"It's too late to save the driver, I hope that the mother will forgive the sins!"

Yuan Benque, the commander of the forbidden army, knelt on one knee and clasped his fists with both hands.

"Hmph, since it's too late, why don't you kill this thief! Keep it for now! ”

Empress Zhang's willow eyebrows furrowed, and her apricot eyes glared at Yuan Benque, she couldn't let this matter leak out tonight no matter what.

"Queen Niangniang, this person is His Royal Highness King Ming, the Seventh Prince, although he is offended, but the situation of the Seventh Prince, the Queen Mother also knows, if he is executed like this, His Majesty will blame him, and he can't afford to bear his humble duties."

"How can this be reasonable, this is the land of the harem, no matter what kind of prince he is, trespassing into the harem is a capital crime! I command you to put this thief to death at once!" ”

"The queen's order, Weichen dare not disobey, but this matter implicates Your Majesty, besides, he is still the son-in-law of Commander Xiao, please think twice about the queen."

Empress Zhang was about to get angry, but when she suddenly heard Commander Xiao, her beautiful eyes lit up, and her heart gradually calmed down.

"Hmph, what do you say?" Empress Zhang immediately sat aside.

"Weichen thinks that it is better to inform Your Majesty of this matter first and leave it to Your Majesty to decide."

"Hmph, I want to see how His Majesty explains to this palace!"

Empress Zhang stared at Zhou Qi, as if she wanted to see him through.

"This palace is tired, this son disturbs my purity, how to say and do tonight's things is up to you to decide, this palace is going to rest"

"Wechen understands!"

"What are you doing, Queen Mother, help, they won't let me eat grandma, I want to eat grandma."

Seeing that the crisis was temporarily lifted, the stone in his heart finally fell, and he continued to pretend to be stupid.

Empress Zhang snorted coldly and moved to the side hall.

"Come on, give Ming... Change the thief's clothes and take him to the Hall of Heart Cultivation."

"No"

"Slow, you don't need to change it, just take it to the Heart Cultivation Palace."

"Yes."

"I'm going to eat grandma, I'm going to eat...."

......

The Temple of Nourishing the Heart

"Iniquity!"

After hearing Yuan Benque's simple explanation, Emperor Zhou Xingyuan roared angrily.

"Son, son, how can I have a son like you."

Zhou Xingyuan kicked Zhou Qi, who was kneeling on the ground, to the ground, and Zhou Qi burst into tears.

"You've lost all my face!"

"Ben Que, what is going on, how could this rebel run to Kunning Palace, at the end of his birthday, isn't he in Taiyi Palace?"

"Your Majesty, I don't know anything about the humble position, His Royal Highness King Ming was in Kunning Palace when the humble position first came, but..."

"But whatever, whatever you want!"

"Your Majesty, I heard from Weichen's subordinates that His Royal Highness King Ming was on the queen's phoenix couch at that time, and his clothes were disheveled...."

Yuan Benque hesitated.

When Zhou Xingyuan heard this, he was even more annoyed.

"Bastard thing! See if I don't kill you. ”

Zhou Xingyuan kicked Zhou Qi, who was crying, again, and pulled out a knife from the guard next to him, and the eunuch guard next to him knelt down directly.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Ming's mind is only three years old, what can he do, besides, His Royal Highness King Ming married the young daughter of Commander Xiao, this marriage is still Your Majesty's hand-picking, Your Majesty must not be impulsive."

Yuan Benque knelt on one knee and persuaded.

"Your Majesty is angry!" Gonggong Han on the side also knelt on the ground.

"What about the marriage I hand-picked, I killed my own son, and I still have to see Xiao Guanghuan's face? And you, there is such a big thing in the harem, how do you care. ”

"Your Majesty's anger is a dereliction of duty, and I hope Your Majesty will punish you, but your dragon body is important, don't be angry."

"Okay, get up, you can't be completely blamed for this, you tell me what to do."

"The humble position thinks that this matter is still under charge, but His Royal Highness King Ming is not guilty to death, and when the humble position is investigated, he will give His Majesty an explanation."

Zhou Xingyuan slowly sat on the dragon couch, and said: "Forget about this matter, the matter of the harem cannot be moved to the court, I think about it, who else dares to frame the queen?" ”

"However, this rebel has caused such a big incident, so that I have lost all my face, and if I don't punish him, I can't give the queen an explanation."

When Zhou Xingyuan's words came to Zhou Qi's side, he was angry.

"You sent someone to lock this rebel in the ancestral hall, so that he could face the emperor and reflect on it."

"Commanded by humility."

"Wait, this rebel is mentally incomplete, who knows what kind of mess will be made of the ancestral hall, detain him in front of the ancestral hall, and no one can approach."

"Your Majesty, this is already winter, and it is snowing heavily tonight, so it is not appropriate for His Royal Highness King Ming to be held outdoors."

"Don't go yet!"

Zhou Xingyuan didn't want anyone to mention the word King Ming again.

"Your Majesty is angry, and you will retire from your humble position!"

After Yuan Benque took Zhou Qi away, Zhou Xingyuan muttered: "Xiao Guanghuan... Queen..."

......

In front of the ancestral hall

"You two are here watching Your Highness, you must make sure that Your Highness's life is worry-free, and if something goes wrong, come to me."

"Yes!"

Yuan Benque looked at Zhou Qi, sighed, put the prepared blanket on Zhou Qi, who was shivering from the cold, and then led the rest of the guards away.

"It's really unlucky to let the two of us stay here on such a cold day."

One of the guards said as he rubbed his hands.

"We're okay, look at this kid, stupid, if we can't stand the cold for a while, it's good to use his blanket."

"Haha, that makes sense."

Zhou Qi's hands and feet were tied, and he curled up in front of the door, fortunately, there was a long corridor in front of the ancestral hall, so he would not lie in the snow, but this was already a cold winter night, the coldest time of the day, in this backward era, there was no heavy industry, even if he was lying in the bed, he couldn't sleep well, let alone outdoors.

Good thing there's a blanket, hey, where's my blanket?
