Chapter 49: Into the Dungeon
When the others heard that he dared to point the spearhead directly at the Seventh Princess in front of the emperor, they all closed their mouths and stopped talking.
The others didn't hear it, and they kept a sullen face, doing what they had to do.
Shuo was still immersed in his own reasoning, puzzled.
On the contrary, when Xi heard this, he slapped the case with a bang, and the fine pastries in his mouth splashed out, directly embedding the man's face, and then he glared angrily at him and scolded: "Who are you, you dare to frame my seventh sister!" ”
"I'm ......" The man was stunned by the splash of the pastry dregs, not knowing what to reply, and staring at him abruptly.
But a person next to him got up to relieve the siege: "Your Highness the Sixth doesn't know, every time this fire comes, someone will witness a red-haired woman in red appear, dare to ask in this world, besides Princess Duanjing, who else has red hair?" Wearing red often? ”
The man replied leisurely and indifferently, but he pointed at Wu Ling every word, if this was the truth, then Wu Ling would be imprisoned in the dungeon in the next moment.
"The people in red clothes are all Heavenly Fire Demon Girls? My seventh sister just likes to wear red, what's wrong? None of the adults present like to wear red? Everyone is a Heavenly Fire Demon Girl? Does anyone in your family wear red? If so, you have to catch them all together? ”
"Since there is a red-haired and red-eyed person like my seventh sister, how do you know that there is no second one! The fourth brother took me to play in fashion and saw blue-eyed blonde people, and he also said that his homeland is full of such appearances! You haven't seen it, so why is it the only one in the world?! I have to go out to publicize myself, and I don't know if I know the sea of learning! What kind of official are you?! ”
Xi was aggressive, pinching his waist like a small teapot, and pointed at another person and scolded, although the other party looked much taller than himself, but as an emperor, his momentum was not inferior.
Cang's face didn't show joy or anger, a pair of eyes just looked at Xi's small mouth that kept spraying pastry dregs, and the light gray cuffs stroked lightly, then brushed away the slag on his lips, and stood quietly beside him.
Xi Zheng scolded people vigorously, no matter whether there was slag on his mouth or not, his eyes were round, as if he was going to stare at the bastard who framed his seventh sister into the ground.
"The minister is superficial, he has never seen any blue-eyed and blonde-haired people, the minister only knows, every time the fire falls, there will be red-haired and red-clothed people appear, and some people are sure that that person is even more red-eyed, extremely similar to Princess Duanjing, how should the emperor explain?"
Does the similarity prove anything? Look at your sharp-beaked monkey gills! I said you were the ewe to the slaughter! I'm sure you're the ewe! Shall I have someone drag you to kill you?! Do you think it's my seventh sister just because it's like?! ”
"This world is so big, and there are a few people with red hair and red eyes, Your Highness, you say, can you see a second person besides the princess? What is it that has red eyes in this life, isn't it a demon girl?! ”
"I've never seen it, but it's not nothing! Looking at my eldest brother, second brother and father, I know that only the Yun family has silver eyes in the whole world, and the ancestor emperor still has two silver eyes! There is no one with silver eyes in the whole world, do you dare to say that our Yun family is all demons?! I see that your group of people are all full of food and have nothing to do, and one day my father will arrange a lot of work for you! You are all idle, like a woman who has nothing to do, chewing the root of people's tongues behind your back! Brook pointed to his two eyeballs and scolded resentfully, and a small mouth squirted quickly.
"Your Highness, you take the emperor as an example, the minister naturally doesn't dare to say anything, but whether it is true or false, he has his own judgment, one day, if he really catches the fire demon girl that day, the minister will go up and stab him a few times!"
The man took a step forward and almost looked down at the stream, clearly without respect for the emperor in his eyes.
As the son of Emperor Xingzun without silver eyes, he cannot inherit the country, and of course his status is far inferior to Shuo Herui, who is the son of Emperor Shengzun.
Therefore, some people in the court actually don't take the emperor Xingzun who can't do anything into their eyes at all, especially the emperor like Xi who doesn't want to study, but is only naughty and playful, and has a kind word on his face called 'Your Highness', in fact, it means that this person is the son of the emperor and has to be respected.
The Holy Emperor is different, not necessarily who will inherit the country one day, if it annoys the Holy Emperor, it is difficult to get along with the official position of Yulu.
Xi glared at the man in front of him who was half a head taller than herself, disgusted with his contemptuous appearance, coupled with his previous slander against Wu Ling, which made Xi even more angry.
He thought in his heart, this person may want to compare his staring skills with himself, so he will compete to see who is more powerful!
So Xi stared back with more eyes, but he was suddenly pulled behind him by a pair of big hands, and then a burly figure like a dark cloud covered him, and he could not see anything, but could only stare at the broad back in a daze.
When the man saw Emperor Cangzi, who held the military power in his hand, took a step, he knew the meaning, and lowered his head stupidly, not wanting to feel uncomfortable anymore, but he refused to go back because of his face.
Although Cang is also the son of the Emperor Xingzun, but because he has learned a body of martial arts since he was a child, he is quite qualified to lead soldiers to fight, he got a military order when he was a teenager, commanding thousands of troops, and some people called him Yum Young General in those years, if the new emperor succeeds to the throne in the future, the military power in his hands is only more and not less.
Therefore, this one can't be provoked like the Holy Emperor.
"Fourth brother, what are you doing?" Brook poked his head out of his arm, and saw that the guy who had been glaring at him before had withered his gaze, and looked away with a cry of joy in his heart.
"It's okay, an ant under my feet, trying to climb to the top of the emperor's head, has now trampled to death." Cang took two steps back, and a pair of slender arms were still tightly wrapped around Xi, as if to take a stand.
When the man heard Cang's words, his heart trembled, and he didn't care about any facelessness, touched his nose, retreated to the banquet in a gray manner, and shook off the folding fan and fanned the wind awkwardly.
Xi Yun looked at the place where his fourth brother had stepped on for a long time, but he didn't find any ant corpses or anything like that, but the opponent had already been defeated, so he had to return to his seat.
Wu Ling lowered her head, but heard everyone around her talking about this adult.
"This adult is so powerful, a few grades lower than our officials, but he dares to speak so much, it's really terrifying."
"Yes, yes, he dared to point at the princess and quarrel with the emperor, it's really admirable."
"How do you know, he is a person under the Three Emperors, can he not be publicized?"
"It turned out to be the person of the Three Emperors, no wonder ......"
"Don't say it, don't talk about it......"
A few ministers who were chatting lively, as soon as they mentioned the three emperors, they shut up one after another.
Wu Ling frowned, for so many years, she had never heard of who the Three Emperors were.
But...... Since there are only two emperors in this Shengzun, Shuo and Rui, the three emperors must be the emperors of Xingzun.
Why would they say that it is not strange for the people under the Three Emperors to be flamboyant?
Xi had just quarreled, and when she saw that the person in question, Wu Ling, looked thoughtful, as if she had nothing to do with her, she couldn't help but admire her leisure.
Cang didn't care what the people around him were saying or doing, he just followed behind Xi and looked at him intently.
Shuo thought about it for a long time just now, but he still couldn't grasp the clue, so he simply stopped thinking about it and began to put vegetables on Wu Ling's jade plate.
He knew that Wu Ling liked to eat vegetables, so he was full of green.
Wu Ling was stunned for a long time, and when she lowered her head, she saw that she suddenly had a small pile of vegetables on her plate.
Xi is also throwing meat into Cang's jade plate at the moment, Cang actually doesn't like meat so much, but Xi just thinks that he needs to eat more meat, otherwise he will definitely get sick.
Several officials also kept silent after being taught a lesson by the small pastry watering can just now, eating vegetables when they should eat, and drinking wine when they should drink.
"Look, my sons are now able to stand alone, haha." The emperor, who had been watching from afar, chuckled under his breath and praised Xi and Cang's actions.
The emperor was thinking about what everyone had said before, and when she heard the emperor speak, she hurriedly replied with a gentle smile.
"Yes, yes, Cang has led troops all year round, looking at this momentum, he has not lost to any generals and courtiers."
The emperor was overjoyed and felt that his sons had grown up, but the emperor was still thinking about the previous things in his heart, and he couldn't disperse.
Recently, there have always been rumors about the Heavenly Fire Demon Maiden in the court, and even Wu Ling's appearance is so clear!
If only Wu Ling and herself know about this matter, and there is no third person, could it be that Wu Ling said it?
The emperor shook her head in her heart, no, she has raised Wu Ling for many years, and she knows Wu Ling's taciturn nature, and if this matter is related to herself, she will definitely not say it.
So who told Shangguan Yu about it?
The emperor was gloomy in her heart, and she knew it earlier, so she would just find an ordinary ordinary person to cultivate, but she only heard that there was a fire girl in the mountain, so she brought her back, and ignored that her appearance was too eye-catching.
Although these young officials were all suppressed by the momentum of Cang, they were quiet for a while, but some people still couldn't sit still, and after a while, I saw that the old man stood up quietly, and stared at Wu Ling with a pair of cloudy old eyes.
"Regardless of whether Tianhuo is related to Princess Duanjing or not, Lao Chen is willing to gamble on the glory of the whole family, and beg the emperor to send her to the dungeon, and when he comes to the sun, he will know!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone gasped, did this old man know that he was suing the princess? Even if she is a righteous daughter, she also has a respectful position, and if she really wrongs others, she will definitely lose the glory of her whole family!
The emperor knew that he would not be able to control the scene if he didn't say anything at this time, so he coughed lightly twice, and was about to speak, but the emperor took the lead and replied loudly.
"Since everyone has a private opinion about the daughter of this palace, then, this palace will make a decision in person."
When everyone heard the emperor and queen speak, they all stopped whispering, and countless pairs of eyes stared at the emperor and queen, holding their breath.
Among them naturally included Wu Ling, who looked at the queen mother nervously, but found that the queen mother had not looked at her.
I saw the emperor and queen wave an arm: "Come on, send Princess Duanjing into the dungeon." ”
