Xia Chu didn't know how to talk to Lan Yuying about this in the future, so he glanced at the furious emperor.
Maybe, there is no future...
"What happened back then is now gone. If you didn't send me this poison, for Lan Sheng's sake, I originally planned to turn a blind eye and let it go. But you guys are not willing to let me go! "The emperor's mood has become a little out of control.
Xia Chu remained silent. He didn't know the whole story yet, so he had no way to argue. The emperor was angry at this moment, making many mistakes.
His silence did not reduce the emperor's anger, but instead aroused his resentment. The emperor walked up to him, held his collar and asked: "You have nothing to say, do you?"
Xia Chu glanced at the emperor indifferently and replied angrily: "Chu'er said it, the emperor just doesn't believe it."
Seeing that his breathing was almost stagnant, the emperor gritted his teeth and threw him aside: "When I capture Lan Yuying and enter the palace, we will see if her confession is consistent with yours."
Xia Chu stiffened, stood up holding the cabinet, and tugged on a corner of his clothes. His eyes were full of pleading: "Your Majesty, it has nothing to do with Miss Lan. She doesn't know anything until now."
The emperor raised his eyebrows and looked at him: "You don't know anything?"
Xia Chu nodded frequently: "I really don't know anything. She doesn't know who her mother is at all. Although I'm checking and infer that the hostess of the Miao Family Incense Shop is most likely her mother, I don't know. Don’t dare to make any judgment based on the evidence. If you’re wrong, her joy will be in vain.”
The emperor let him pull the hem of his clothes and looked at him for a long time, his expression slightly moved: "Does she know? I will know when I ask."
The emperor turned and left, and the corner of his clothes slipped from Xia Chu's hands. Xia Chu looked at his back and called out: "Your Majesty."
The emperor stiffened and paused.
"Your Majesty, Chu'er did not poison, and Miss Lan didn't know anything about it, let alone conspired with His Highness Seventh Prince to usurp the throne. Yun Yi rejects everything you said!"
The emperor looked back at him. In the dim light of the secret room, he was alone, his back straight and exceptionally clear and tough.
This stubborn temperament is very similar to Lan Sheng...
The emperor's heart softened, and out of the corner of his eye he caught sight of most of the remaining pills on the table. His heart, which had just softened a little, hardened again.
He turned back and said in a cold tone: "Mu'er has been monitored by me. I will personally interrogate Lan Yuying. As for you, this poison is real after all!"
…
The emperor finally stepped out of the imperial study. When Xia Chu saw his figure disappear, he felt relieved and slowly sat on the ground holding the cabinet beside him.
All the bones in his body ached, so he took a pill from his arms and swallowed it.
He couldn't panic now. He had just been calmed down for a moment. In fact, things were not hopelessly bad. The palace could not trap him.
If he really wanted to, he could always go out. Xiao Zimu was being monitored and it was inconvenient for him to go there...
While his mind was full of thoughts, a young eunuch came in and said, "Little Marquis, the Emperor asked my servant to take you to rest."
Xia Chu was interrupted by him and looked towards him. The face of the young eunuch kneeling underneath was very familiar: "Raise your head."
The young eunuch raised his head in response, and Xia Chu suddenly remembered that he often came to the Imperial Study Room last month. This young eunuch was extremely smart and would check his mental state every time and serve him some refreshing tea or sweet sweets. of tea.
"Are you the one..." Xia Chu thought for a long time before realizing that she seemed to have praised him but not asked his name.
"The slave is Xiao Yuanzi." Xiao Huan added very cleverly.
"You are not round at all, and you are not very thin. Will Eunuch Li take advantage of you in time?" Xia Chu joked and stood up holding the cabinet.
"Little Marquis, please don't say this nonsense." Xiao Yuanzi hurriedly stepped forward to give him a hand, and quickly glanced at the messy imperial study room, thinking in his heart, if he could make the emperor so angry, he could still be calm and calm at the moment. There is really no one else who can make fun of myself...
Xia Chu really put some strength on him and let him help her walk while asking: "Where did the emperor ask you to take me?"
Xiao Yuanzi's arm holding him stiffened, and he hesitated for a long time: "Ci, Ci'an, An Gong..."
Xia Chu frowned: "The Ci'an Palace where Princess Yirou passed away?"
Xiaoyuanzi didn't dare to look at him and nodded.
Xia Chu recalled the location of Ci'an Palace and the nearby palaces in his previous life. Seeing that he was silent, Xiao Yuanzi thought he was scared. After thinking about it, he comforted him: "Little Marquis, it's okay. Don't be afraid. The Emperor has his servants at his service." You, my servant will accompany you.”
Xia Chu couldn't help laughing when he heard what he said, although his voice was obviously trembling: "You are the one who is afraid, I heard. People who hang themselves will find someone to act as a ghost before they can be reincarnated. You..."
"Little Marquis..." Xiao Yuanzi cried: "You, you! We will be there in a minute..."
Xia Chu originally wanted to push him away, but what if he kept him guarded all night? Then he tilted his head and stuck out his tongue, as if he was a hanged man to scare him.
Xiao Yuanzi's legs went weak, and both of them fell to the ground together with Xia Chu who was supporting him.
Xia Chu stood up and patted his butt, but Xiao Yuanzi was trembling and couldn't stand up. Instead, Xia Chu reached out and pulled him: "Hurry up."
Xiao Yuanzi walked tremblingly, glancing at him from time to time.
Looking at his appearance, Xia Chu felt a little unbearable and said to him: "If I have a future in the future, I will thank you for your support today."
Xiao Yuanzi looked at the arms of the two people holding each other. It was really unclear who was holding the other's arm now...
"You don't look like you're in trouble. Eunuch Li sent someone to report the news to the Marquis in vain." Xiao Yuanzi muttered.
"Eh? Did Eunuch Li send someone to report the news to my father?" Xia Chu stepped forward and asked him.
"Yes, yes, it should be so. I accidentally overheard this before." Xiao Yuanzi nervously looked at the escorting guards behind him, then whispered in his ear: "Slave This was eavesdropped, please don’t tell anyone else.”
Xia Chu gently slapped him on the forehead, and then continued to walk forward: "I am under house arrest, where can I go to talk about it?"
Xiao Yuanzi's face was startled. He remembered that he was in the Imperial Study Room just now and said that he was sending the young Marquis to Ci'an Palace to rest. He mumbled and asked: "How do you know?"
Xia Chu's expression was calm: "What do you know? Does the Emperor want to put me under house arrest? I think you are quite smart. If the Emperor asks about my state of being imprisoned, do you know how to respond?"
Xiaoyuanzi frowned and thought for a while and asked: "Heartbroken? In agony? Do you regret it?"
Xia Chu hit him hard on the forehead this time: "I regret your size. Back then, you were so small. To put it simply, the worse, the better..."
