Aodenge Rile was actually well-behaved today. After listening to Xiao Yanjun's gentle words, he didn't act coquettishly and forced him to stay, giving him a bow and left gracefully.
Xiao Yanjun was very satisfied with her meekness. He turned to Si Nan and asked, "How is Su Qianle doing in your house?"
Si Nan didn't want to spoil his mood, so he hid the part where Su Qianle was noisy: "It's quite peaceful. I just kept asking Rongrong when she would fulfill her promise."
Xiao Yanjun sneered: "Now that my father knows that she is in your house, don't touch her for the time being. In a few days, he will take her to redeem his promise and send her to be with her beloved for a long time. This king does not count." Broke your trust in her.”
Si Nan naturally knew what Changjiujiu meant and responded: "Yes, I understand."
Xiao Yanjun nodded approvingly, and Si Nan thought for a while before asking him: "What should Yuan Guangyi do?"
Xiao Yanjun snorted coldly: "He has done what he should do, no matter what he does."
Si Nan's face showed a little worry: "My subordinate is afraid that he will not be strict with his words."
Xiao Yanjun waved his hand and said indifferently: "Everyone in his family is in the hands of his mother and concubine. He can clearly understand what is light and what is heavy."
Si Nan flattered her at the right time: "Yes, my Majesty always hits seven inches when she takes action. This subordinate is overly worried."
Xiao Yanjun stood up, with a joyful smile on his handsome face: "Get ready, it's time to go to court. I have been looking forward to this morning court for a long time..."
Prince Yu's palace sang and danced all night, but in the Yongning Hall of the palace, Xiao Zimu was losing his temper.
This was the first time in his life that he got angry.
This time, it was out of control.
Ever since he returned to the palace and was grounded by Concubine Lian yesterday, his anger has continued to surge one after another until now.
"Concubine, did you not even let me go to the morning court?" Xiao Zimu's body was in a mess, and his voice was already hoarse.
"The empress said that she has taken leave of absence for you and said that you are not feeling well and are recuperating in the palace." Xin Ya couldn't bear to watch, but he had to report the truth truthfully.
"Is she going to drive me crazy to be satisfied?" Xiao Zimu looked lonely and helpless.
"Your Majesty, she... is doing this for His Highness's own good." Xin Ya looked hesitant and murmured for a long time, but he could only say this feeble comfort.
At first, Xiao Zimu was scolded by Concubine Lian when he returned to the palace and put him under house arrest. Although he was displeased, he did not lose his temper.
But since the emperor issued the decree and Xia Chu was exiled, Xiao Zimu went to Yaohua Palace again. Concubine Lian avoided seeing him and sent You Rui to take him back to the palace. After that, Xiao Zimu went crazy and wanted to die. I have to face the saint and leave the palace...
Xin Ya vaguely heard from the side that Xiao Zimu asked Yu Rui about Xia Chu's current situation.
Naturally, You Rui didn't dare to deceive him because of the leverage he had. She truthfully reported that Xia Chu was exiled to Feishanling and set off immediately.
After Xiao Zimu heard this, he went crazy...
No matter how he wanted to rush out, he was surrounded by people sent by Concubine Lian and was not allowed to go anywhere.
Xiao Zimu's trouble started from last night to this morning.
The hall had been smashed to pieces, and the study was in a mess. Even the paintings and calligraphy he cherished in the past had been scattered all over the place.
Xiao Zimu suddenly stood up, raised his sword tremblingly and went out. Xin Ya's expression changed greatly and he hurriedly stepped forward to stop him: "Your Highness, Your Highness, what do you want to do?"
Xiao Zimu raised his eyes to look at him, his eyes full of determination: "Either let me die today or let me leave the palace!"
Xin Ya had never seen Xiao Zimu looking like this before. He was so shocked that he didn't know what to do. When he was stunned, Xiao Zimu passed over his body and walked towards the entrance of the palace.
It wasn't until the sound of fighting resounded at the door that Xin Ya came back to his senses and hurriedly chased after Xiao Zimu. Taking advantage of Xiao Zimu's unpreparedness, he struck his neck with a palm and knocked him unconscious.
Xin Ya was dumbfounded after he raised his hand. He did it purely subconsciously. He just wanted to stop Xiao Zimu first, but there was nothing he could do to stop him. Before his brain could react, his hand had already been chopped down.
The guard guarding the door looked at his gesture of knocking Xiao Zimu unconscious, holding up the scabbard to stop Xiao Zimu just now, and froze there. They looked at each other, and then lowered their heads in tacit understanding, pretending that they had just Nothing happened.
Xin Ya carried Xiao Zimu back to his room and placed him properly on the bed.
At this moment, I don’t care about how he will punish himself after he wakes up. Let’s get over this hurdle first...
After Xin Ya settled Xiao Zimu, he called the trembling palace servants to come out and tidy up the hall, and then he went to Xiao Zimu's study.
The things inside were Xiao Zimu's privacy. He didn't want to leave it to the palace staff to take care of, so he packed it up himself.
Just when Xin Ya was sorting out Xiao Zimu's paintings, he accidentally discovered that Xiao Zimu's paintings from the beginning of the year almost all revolved around one person.
That person is Xia Chu...
Every frown, every smile, every gesture, was Xia Chu's figure.
Xin Ya was shocked, but he still managed to calm down and comfort himself. His Highness and the young master were brothers and had similar temperaments. These paintings by His Highness were really nothing...
While comforting himself in this way, he put away all the paintings in a dull manner and placed them at the bottom of other paintings.
At the same time, the morning session in the Hall of Supreme Harmony had already begun.
Most of the courtiers were very high-spirited, while a small half looked very depressed.
The high-spirited courtiers first praised His Highness King Yu based on the contents of the list, praising him for his kindness, righteousness, and benevolence.
Then he tearfully denounced Xia Chutian's unreasonable behavior, and some even insinuated that the Marquis and Old General Zhao were also responsible for covering up. Only then did the small number of courtiers who had endured the entire morning without speaking a word speak back.
"How could you people say against your will that General Zhao protected his grandson and burned his body? And those who suspected that General Zhao was collaborating with the enemy? Have you been kicked in the head by a donkey? If General Zhao had collaborated with the enemy, what else would you need? Did Hu Guo go all out to drug him in the military camp?" Although Taifu Wu was a civil servant, he respected General Zhao very much.
After hearing those filthy words, I was so angry that I was trembling. I pointed at those people and swore harshly.
Most of the people were silenced by his scolding, but some whispers still came out: "But the letter that sealed the seal of King Hu did indeed mention the young marquis by name..."
Jie Jiming, the Minister of Rites, stood up at this time and retorted with a cold snort: "The handwriting of the so-called Young Marquis submitted by Su Qianle was also recognized as inconsistent. This matter can only prove that there is indeed someone collaborating with the enemy. Is it a frame-up? Isn't Dali Temple still there?" I'm checking it out and it will become clear to me in the future."
The emperor did not expect that Xie Ji Ming would reveal the mystery at this time.
He originally thought that a single-minded person like Xie Jiming would be somewhat hostile to Xia Chu after seeing such irrefutable evidence...
