When Xiao Xu entered the palace with the Royal Forest Army, the palace gate fell behind him.
He didn't stop, and slowly walked towards the imperial study with the guidance of the palace servants.
When he arrived at the door of the imperial study, the waiting eunuch told him that his majesty had gone down to Mingchen Hall and had not returned yet, so he was asked to wait here.
Mingchen Hall is the palace of the Fourth Emperor Xiao Ran.
He glanced at the heavily guarded surroundings and walked away.
"His Royal Highness King Ying, where are you going?" The eunuch who was waiting immediately stood in front of him and asked anxiously.
"This king is going to visit the Fourth Emperor's younger brother in Mingchen Hall, is it possible that I need your permission?" Xiao Xu swept his eyes coldly.
The eunuch was trembling with fright. It was rumored from the outside that King Ying's eyes were extremely cold, and a single glance could scare people to death. Although it was a bit exaggerated, it was still vivid.
But he was responsible for guarding the King of England. If he ran away, how should he explain it.
As if seeing his thoughts, Xiao Xu curled his lips and sneered, "What? In your eyes, this king has become an assassin? Don't forget the identity of this king, as long as there is no conclusion for a day, where does this king want to go? It's not your turn to stop you."
The eunuch was so frightened that he immediately retreated. His Royal Highness was right. His Majesty only summoned the British king to the palace and did not convict him, so he should not offend the British king easily, otherwise he would not even know how he died in the future.
After no one stood in his way, Xiao Xu strode towards Mingchen Hall.
Just walking all the way, he saw the severity of the palace. He guessed that the assassination was no trivial matter, but compared to his own suspicion, he was more worried about the fourth emperor's younger brother's injury.
The little child who loved to provoke him in front of him, now he has grown up, but still can't change his temperament to dangle in front of him from time to time.
When he learned that he had an accident, his heart was lifted, but he knew that the father emperor and the moon concubine were by his side, and it was more useful than himself by his side, but when he approached the harem, he couldn't help but care about it.
Arriving at Mingchen Hall, the brightly lit palace, the windows showed figures walking back and forth, and at the entrance of the hall, the imperial doctor came in and out, looking in a hurry, everyone held their breath, for fear of disturbing the atmosphere at the moment.
Xiao Xu stood outside the hall waiting for the message from the people inside.
But what he was waiting for was not the summoned eunuch, but the bright and yellow father and emperor.
He asked in a deep voice, "Father, how is the fourth emperor's younger brother's injury? Is it serious?"
Emperor Xixuan suppressed the anger in his chest, his chest heaving violently, "You don't know if it's serious or not? How dare you appear here!"
Xiao Xu frowned when he heard the words, "Father, how is the fourth emperor's brother's injury?"
At this moment, instead of asking why his father's attitude towards him is so bad, what he is most concerned about is the injury of the fourth emperor's younger brother.
"Don't be hypocritical, I still don't know your temperament!" The life and death of his beloved son was unknown, and his heart had long been swayed, and when he saw Xiao Xu, his anger burst out.
"Father Emperor—" He just wanted to know the injury of the Fourth Emperor's younger brother.
"Kneel down!" Emperor Xixuan ordered indiscriminately.
Xiao Xu was stunned for a moment, then he lifted the hem of his clothes and knelt down on his knees. The stone bricks in early autumn had a bit of coolness, but it was not as cold as his heart at this time.
He watched the bright yellow figure walk away with a hint of self-mockery at the corner of his mouth.
In the Mingchen Hall, the roar of Emperor Xixuan resounded, "If I can't keep Ran'er out of danger, I will let you buried with you. What's the use of raising you!"
He suddenly remembered that when his father had not stepped into his palace for three months, and he stayed in the Moon Palace to serve the fourth emperor's younger brother, he wanted to get his father's attention and wash his hands in the cold winter. Leng Shui, he caught a cold from the cold, and his mother ordered someone to tell his father, but he only got a good sentence from his father. At that time, he didn't understand, thinking that his performance was not good enough, and after he recovered, he became angry and tried to study and practice martial arts. , But when the fire ignited, and his life and death were uncertain, he only got his father to stop for a moment, and then hurried back to the Moon Palace, because the three-year-old brother of the fourth emperor had a bad stomach.
But when the eunuch and the maid guards standing at the gate of the palace cast a strange look at him, a dignified war god of a country, a prince of a country, was reprimanded and knelt down. I'm afraid it's just a rare scene in Xixuan Kingdom's past dynasties!
He suddenly remembered that punishing kneeling, it seems, is not the first time.
It's just that every time it's related to the Fourth Emperor's younger brother.
The queen mother said that the main culprit was the Fourth Emperor's younger brother, but he knew it was not.
If the father emperor hadn't given all his father's love to the fourth emperor's younger brother, he wouldn't have missed him.
A flash of lightning pierced the sky, as if sensing the tension in the palace at this time, as if it hit everyone's heart, causing a shudder.
Soon, the downpour fell without warning.
The heavy rain hit his face, shoulders, and hands, it should be painful, but he didn't feel it. got used to.
A pair of exquisite and rich boots appeared in front of him, he looked up, and in the hazy heavy rain, he saw an angry mother.
"Mother, it's raining heavily, don't stand here."
"The son is kneeling here, do you think the mother can rest in the palace at ease?" Empress Liang said angrily.
"Empress mother, my son is not filial, which makes you worry." Xiao Xu lowered his eyes slightly, the rain dripped down his cheeks, dripped on the ground, and rippled a little.
"If you really don't want this palace to worry, you can explain to your royal father and clear your suspicions!" Queen Liang said angrily.
Luo Yun, who was holding an umbrella, quickly patted Queen Liang's back to help her follow her breath.
"Mom, don't be angry." Xiao Xu pursed his lips and said, "Father is angry, it's useless for the son to say anything, wait until the fourth emperor's injury is stabilized."
"Xiao Xu, are you willing to make your mother angry? With your ability, you will not be able to find out who the murderer is? The mother does not believe it!" Empress Liang gritted her teeth.
"Erchen still doesn't know what the situation is, so it's even more impossible to know who the murderer is." Xiao Xu's eyes flashed slightly, and he finally lowered his head.
"Okay, okay, okay—" Queen Liang said three good words in a row, then threw her sleeves and left.
Xiao Xu watched the figure of his mother leave, and his heart was a little bitter. He had doubts in his heart, but he—
Powerless.
In the face of the royal father who insists on identifying you as the murderer, no matter what you say, it is equivalent to covering up.
He raised his head, and the three words Mingchen Hall shone a little under the faint illumination of the moonlight.
Mingchen, these two words were taken by the father emperor for the fourth emperor's younger brother, representing the brightest stars.
Perhaps in the father's heart, the fourth emperor's younger brother is the brightest star in his heart.
The fifteenth moon is very round, shining on the ground, and the moonlight is soaked in the water, but it makes people feel desolate.
