Chapter 553: Dare to Contradict Him?

Inside the main hall of the Xiwang Mansion.

Leng Xi sat in the position of the head with a cold face, and Yu Qiaoqiao stood with her head down, her fingers kept pinching the handkerchief, in order to hide the tension in her heart.

After a moment of silence, Leng Xi suddenly spoke in a cold voice,

"Why did you contradict me?"

Yu Qiaoqiao knew that he was talking about letting himself drink in Yuwang's Mansion.

So, she looked up at him and said without hesitation:

"I don't drink, you know, why are you making a fool of me in public? You blame me for contradicting you, why don't you say that you didn't care about my feelings at all? ”

"What did I tell you before I left in the morning? This time, we are seeking peace with sincerity, but you refuse to drink even a glass of water and wine? You still confront me in public, your courage is really getting bigger and bigger. ”

"You go to make peace, it doesn't matter if I drink or not, Princess Yu won't blast us out of Yuwang's Mansion because I don't drink, but you, use me to please others, is this interesting? Don't you think you're going too far? ”

Excessively? How dare she talk to herself like that? How dare she contradict herself again?

Leng Xi was stunned for a moment.

He was just about to get angry, but Yu Qiaoqiao bowed like no one else, and said lightly:

"Lord, I am the princess of Xi, not the little girl of the Xiwang Mansion, please don't point fingers at me in the future, it's not too early, I should go back to sleep, and you should rest early."

Leaving these words, she didn't look at Leng Xi more, turned around directly, and walked outside the main hall.

This......

Leng Xi was stunned for a moment, how could this Yu Qiaoqiao, who had always been obedient to him, dare to refute him many times today? What the hell is going on?

He thought about it with a frown, and finally, he thought about it.

Today, Yu Qiaoqiao and Luo Lan have been together for a long time, presumably, it was that Shui Luo Lan who said something to her, otherwise she would never dare to talk to herself like this.

Thinking of this, he slapped his fist on the table in annoyance, wanting to get angry, but he held back it with all his might.

"Someone."

He shouted to the outside world, and the butler bowed down,

"Lord ......"

"Tell me to go down, starting tomorrow, Xiwangfu will go to the street every day to give porridge and steamed buns, for a month, and those homeless homeless people can eat for free."

The housekeeper was stunned for a moment, and asked cautiously:

"Lord Wang, this month's porridge and steamed buns need a lot of silver, so let's ......"

"Is the king's words unclear or are you having bad ears?"

Seeing that Leng Xi's tone became displeased, the housekeeper nodded busily,

"Yes, I'll call someone to prepare."

With that, the butler quickly turned around and trotted away.

Didn't the mother concubine say that she should be a good person among the people? Then scatter your wealth!

……

In the early morning of the next day, Leng Yu finished dealing with the affairs of the court early, and came to the Heart Cultivation Hall with Liu Dechang.

The emperor's body is still very weak in the past few days, but fortunately, Luo Lan has prescribed him medicine to nourish his body, although his spirit is very poor, his body is fine.

Since Leng Yu was appointed by the emperor as the regent, he can meet the emperor directly without notification.

Therefore, after coming to the Palace of Heart Cultivation, he directly took Liu Dechang to the emperor's inner bed.

When he came closer, he saw that the emperor was leaning on the imperial couch and napping, Liu Xi stood beside him, rubbed his legs lightly for him, Leng Yu bowed and hugged his fists:

"Father, the son has something to do."

Leng Yu's words broke the silence here, the emperor looked at him with his eyes half-opened, and Liu Xi hurriedly helped him sit up.

He sat upright, glanced at Leng Yu, and then looked at Liu Dechang,

"General Liu is also here, it seems that this matter is very important."

Liu Dechang hurriedly clenched his fists and replied:

"What the emperor said is very true, this matter is related to the minister, so the minister and the prince Yu came together."

"Oh? Let's talk about it, what can't Yu'er call the shots, so she has to come to me to reply? ”

After Liu Dechang and Leng Yu glanced at each other, they directly handed over a fold, and after Liu Xi took the fold, he bowed down and said:

"Your Majesty, the minister married a wife back then, you know this, in fact, she didn't die, she was just kidnapped to Chu by the people of Chu, and she also took away one of the minister's children, that is, Luo Lan's twin sisters."

His words made the emperor's eyes flash with a slight surprise, and then asked:

"What do you mean by mentioning this to me now?"

"The minister wants the emperor to rehabilitate the minister's wives and daughters, return their identities, and let them see the light of day again in Daning."

"According to what you say, they're in Daning Country right now, right?"

Liu Dechang hesitated, Leng Yu hugged his fists and replied:

"Father, they are now living in the Yuwang Mansion."

The emperor's face suddenly became gloomy, he looked at Leng Yu and roared in a low voice,

"So, the last time I went, they were in the Yuwang Mansion? You lied to me. ”

"The sons don't dare, they were really helpless last time, and I hope that my father can be sympathetic to the sons."

"Humph!"

The emperor suddenly threw up his sleeves and drank violently,

"You guys are cutting first and then playing, last time I was helpless, what happened this time? Relying on his status as a regent, he can call the shots for them, right? Your audacity is really too great, you actually put two Chu people at home without telling Yu Zhen, you know that I hate the Chu people the most. ”

"Father, they are not from Chu, they were just kidnapped to Chu by the people of Chu, they are also victims, and I hope that my father will be gracious and restore their identities for them."

"It's really unreasonable, if you hadn't deceived me last time, I might have been able to open the net, but you put them at home a long time ago, but you didn't tell me, and now it seems that your Yuwang Mansion didn't take me seriously at all."

Liu Dechang saw that the emperor was angry, and hurriedly bowed down and pleaded:

"Your Majesty, the old minister lost his wife and daughter back then, the emperor was sympathetic, and ordered people to turn over inside and outside the capital without results, the people of Chu in order to let the old minister dispel the idea of looking for his wife and daughter, and held a fake funeral for the old minister's wife, and now the old minister learned that their mother and daughter are still alive, so they naturally want to take it back, please ask the emperor to understand the pain of the old minister for many years of loneliness and helplessness, for the sake of the old minister's face, for the sake of the old minister's face, for their mother and daughter's name, restore their mother and daughter's identity as Daning, the old minister is here to thank you."

When he said this, Liu Dechang suddenly knelt on his knees, and kowtowed to the emperor with old tears.

The emperor closed his eyes slightly, and after a long sigh of relief, he immediately waved his hand,

"The people I hate the most in this life are the Chu people and the people who deceived me, both of them, you have taken them, I take into account the two of you for the sake of me, I don't care about you, within three days, let those two Chu people leave the capital and leave Daning, if not, I will send someone to get someone."

"The Emperor's ......"

When Liu Dechang saw that the emperor said cruel words, he immediately shouted in panic:

"Your Majesty, they are not from Chu, they are the wives and children of the old ministers, can't the emperor be accommodating?"

The emperor waved his hand mercilessly,

"Although they are not from the Chu State, they have been in the Chu State for many years, if they are concerned about the Daning State and General Liu, why don't they come back earlier? Want to come back when the Chu State and the Daning State are at war? Who can guarantee that they are not the fine works of the Chu State? In my opinion, if they want to return to the Guogong Mansion, there must be some ulterior secrets, so you don't have to intercede for the two of them anymore. ”

After saying these words, he waved his hand at Liu Xi,

"I'm tired, help me lie down and sleep, you all retreat."

Seeing that the emperor didn't have the slightest intention of accommodating, and didn't even want to talk about this matter, Leng Yu and Liu Dechang could only walk out of the Heart Cultivation Hall in a huff.

Until they returned to Yuwang's Mansion, neither of them made a sound, perhaps thinking about what to do next.
