"Ah?" Xiao Ting was dumbfounded again, "It seems to be the same."
Regarding the issue of seniority, Miss Xiao Liu felt that what others said was correct.
Anyway, she has nothing to do with anyone here.
The emperor felt a little helpless when he saw that they were actually discussing seniority with a child.
"Uncle Huang, you know the value of those halls, how can you let her dismantle them randomly?"
Although he has always known that this uncle is not very meddlesome, he did not do anything out of the ordinary.
What's wrong with this now
The Tai Hospital, which had been quiet for a long time, was demolished like this, and he was still an accomplice.
At this time, Xiao Ting stopped talking, and the Ninth Prince was also very curious.
For a moment, all eyes fell on the hunchbacked old man.
"I didn't let her dismantle it randomly, you know, this girl is not an ordinary person!"
It also looks extremely appreciative and admirable.
The emperor glanced at Xiao Ting unobtrusively, he naturally knew that this girl was not an ordinary person, she knew the spells, during this period, he also asked Concubine Xiao, where Xiao Ting learned the spells, unfortunately, Concubine Xiao did not know.
The emperor nodded in agreement.
"Then do you know why the four halls of the saint's benevolent heart exist here forever?"
The emperor naturally didn't know this.
This place did not belong to the empire before, it should be said that it did not belong to any country. They have no idea what this place used to be, and it was just passed down from generation to generation.
Two hundred years ago, the empire took over this place. After some masters saw the unusualness of this place, the emperor ordered people to build this place into an imperial hospital, with four halls of the saint's benevolence. They lived in it, and built other houses around him, but they never knew what the purpose of these four halls was.
To be precise, this is a decoration.
But even if we don't know the origin and function of these four halls, they were left by our ancestors for generations, so you just let someone demolish them
Also being an accomplice, can you justify that
"You don't know, and I don't know, but someone knows, you can ask that little girl."
Elder Su continued to speak, his eyes fell on Xiao Ting, very kind.
Xiao Ting hadn't had time to say it yet, someone outside the hall invited her to see her!
It's Xu Wei.
He was dressed in iron clothes, clanking, and striding forward with a dignified expression, first saluted the emperor and the Ninth Prince, and only nodded to Xiao Ting.
Then he said bluntly: "Your Majesty, there is no place for the hanging coffin at all, and this subject is incompetent, so I came here to ask for instructions."
"What are you going to do? Put the rice down."
Xiao Ting looked at him in surprise, then looked at the emperor and said, "That hanging coffin cannot be put down."
"Why?" The emperor had already believed Mr. Su's words and looked at Xiao Ting.
"They belong to the four in one. Oh, I tell you, you don't understand. Anyway, the four hanging coffins must first make them appear, and then fall to the ground at the same time, so that I can find a way to open them."
"Do you want to be so troublesome?"
Xiao Ting nodded, knowing what they meant, and explained: "If force is used, the contents inside will be destroyed."
"You said there was something in that hanging coffin?" The emperor was surprised, and he didn't know what he was thinking, and he was a little distracted.
"Of course, otherwise, what would I do to put it down?"
Xiao Ting secretly rolled her eyes at the emperor. Could it be that she really has nothing to do and just demolished other people's houses
She's innocent, okay
Xu Wei has seen Xiao Ting's ability, although he doubts her words, he still follows her side according to the emperor's instructions.
The dignified commander of the Chu Wei Army was reduced to a coolie, helping out from the sidelines.
The others had already been sent out of the Imperial Hospital, and there were only a few medical doctors who had helped at the beginning, the chief eunuch of the Emperor Ninth Prince, and some guards.
Except for the emperor and the Ninth Prince, Xiao Ting yelled at everyone else, yelled around, and worked everywhere.
As for what work to do, hehe, a group of people demolished houses there.
Half a day passed by, all the ministers didn't go back, they just wanted to see what was the result of the discussion inside, but after waiting and waiting, no one came out, they wanted to ask but didn't ask, and they didn't dare to go in.
Someone who was interested wandered around the Tai Hospital for a day, and came back to talk about the commotion inside, and they all speculated that the house was being demolished again.
Upon receiving the news, the eldest prince Chu Jiyao who hurried over came over.
Everyone came forward to salute, he waved his hand and asked about the situation inside.
The crowd couldn't tell the reason, but only roughly said what they knew.
After learning about it, Chu Jiyao strode in. Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, all a little speechless, but the emperor drove them all out.
"In the past, there was only one Ninth Prince who was the most special among the royal family."
"Now there is another eldest prince, but I don't know these two people... Hehe, they also fell in love with the same woman."
"Since ancient times, there have been many troubles for beautiful women. I have seen the sixth girl of the Xiao family, and she is not a cheap lamp."
"You dare to say that nonsense."
"What are you afraid of? Her biggest backer, Mrs. Xiao, is still imprisoned in the cold palace."
This is also a brainless person, and he didn't answer his words at the moment.
Now who doesn't know, Xiao Lingyue will regain control of the harem sooner or later, the current empress is still young, and because of the empress dowager's face, the emperor did not order to restore Xiao Lingyue's position.
This one is good, and it's true.
For a moment, everyone quietly stayed away from him, for fear of being affected by this fearless person.
Chu Jiyao's arrival did not attract many people's attention.
The emperor also drove him out, and when he saw Xiao Ting busy up and down, he frowned slightly.
strode over.
But he didn't say a word, just protecting her from below.
The emperor saw it, sighed secretly, and then looked at the Ninth Prince next to him. Seeing that he had no emotions, he felt relieved. In fact, sometimes he also had a headache.
This younger brother and his son fell in love with the same woman, what should he do.
You say it's not good to like someone, but you just like this woman, so it doesn't look like a worry-free Lord.
Xiao Ting's project volume can be described as huge, which shocked the inside and outside of the palace for a while.
The emperor waited here for a day, but left early without any results.
Xiao Ting sent everyone back to rest, and she returned to the place where she stayed last night.
The Ninth Prince left with the emperor, but Chu Jiyao did not leave and went to find her.
Xiao Ting didn't refuse this time, nor did she hide from him on purpose, as if she was waiting for him, she opened the door for him when he knocked on the door and invited him in, everything seemed like a good start, but Chu Jiyao felt a little uneasy.
He even wanted to turn around and leave.
The brightly lit candles in the room have already burned more than half, obviously Xiao Ting has been waiting for a long time.
"Please come in, I have something to tell you." Xiao Ting said straight to the point.
"I know, tell me."
Chu Jiyao frowned and sat opposite her.
"Eldest Prince, I have heard a lot about what happened recently. There are also rumors from the outside world that both you and the Ninth Prince like me, but I have become a beauty."
"You don't have to pay attention to what they say."
Chu Jiyao's brows frowned even tighter, Xiao Ting shook her head and said, "I found out that you are not as happy as before when you become the eldest prince."
"If you are really unhappy, then leave, anyway, you never belonged to this place."
In her impression of Xie Jingtian, although he is a little more rigid, he is upright, with the kind of scholarly temperament that can be seen through at a glance.
But today's Chu Jiyao obviously has the same face and the same soul, but the whole person doesn't look so easy to get along with anymore, with a sense of loneliness and a sense of nobility.
But compared to now, Xiao Ting still misses that shy young man.
"My concubine likes it here."
This is his reason.
It is also his involuntary.
In fact, there is another sentence he didn't say, you also like powerful people.
"Okay, let's get down to business." Xiao Ting clapped her hands and continued: "How can you not care about what others say when you are alive
Of course, I am a person who doesn't care much about other people's opinions, but there is one thing. I like freedom, I don't like attention. "
"So?" Chu Jiyao asked back, his eyes were extraordinarily blurred under the light of the candle.
"So, I hope you can find a well-behaved girl to marry."
Xiao Ting said bluntly, "Of course, this is what you want."
"Married? You want me to get married?"
Chu Jiyao whispered these two words slowly.
Xiao Ting nodded and said, "Some words, I think I didn't explain clearly."
"I don't deny that I like you, because I think you are a good friend, but this kind of liking is not the kind of liking that we can spend this life together.
And the difference in status between you and me is too big, of course I don't care about these things, but I don't like them either, I don't like people saying that I am high-ranking, and I will not be low-level, the most important thing is that you and I can only be friends, in my heart. "
Xiao Ting told him these words very seriously, without any meaning of jokes, she hoped that Chu Jiyao could erase this unknown emotion.
"You like Uncle Jiuwang!" Chu Jiyao said directly without thinking too much, using an affirmative sentence.
Xiao Ting still shook her head.
"If you say like the same as I say like, then let me tell you, I don't like anyone, and I won't like anyone."
"Why?"
Xiao Ting's words gave Chu Jiyao a clear answer and made him feel a little more comfortable. At least he didn't lose to someone, but to her heart.
"This is my own oath, and it has nothing to do with anyone. You just need to know that my relationship with you is destined to be friends. I hope that you can live your own life, whether you want to get married or not. I only hope that the two of us will not be mentioned at the same time in the future."
Xiao Ting spoke very chicly, with a light expression on her face. Chu Jiyao saw that she was not lying.
"I appreciate your concern, but I don't need it."
Xiao Ting explained the matter as clearly as possible, regardless of whether it hurts others or not.
The main reason is that she thinks it can't go on like this. It's not that she didn't hear the people's discussion just now, and it's not that she didn't know it. Although the red spoons and green weeds were hiding from her, she was neither deaf, nor dumb, nor blind.
