Jun Jingxing was stunned, turned around and helplessly wiped his tears: "Why are you crying all of a sudden? Isn't this a happy event?"
There's nothing to cry about.
In the eyes of others, Suixun and Jiang Ning are in love with each other, and the road to love is smooth sailing.
But in Sui Yan's heart, the older brother of the previous life died young, and Jiang Ning, who was left with nothing but friendship, was up and down in the world.
It is the most painful thing in the world to ask for but not to be able to live and die.
It is precisely because Suiyan is used to seeing the misery of the two of them in the past life, that the happiness in the present is not easy to come by.
He gently pushed Jun Jingxing away, wiped it twice, and said, "It's fine."
Jun Jingxing looked at him helplessly.
The surroundings were still lively, and the guests were seated at the banquet one after another. Sui Yan and Jun Jingxing sat together, and it was rare to mix half a glass of wine with honey juice and drank it all in one go.
After half a glass of wine, Sui Yan's shoulders shook, a mist of water appeared in his eyes, and he tilted his head and said, "Bring me that jar of wine."
Jun Jingxing hurriedly stopped his hand: "What kind of wine are you drinking, your body is not yet healthy, and you want to get needles again, don't you?"
Sui Yan stretched out two fingers to compare: "Just, just a little bit, drink it with sugar water, you can't taste it."
Jun Jingxing said: "That won't work either, you can't taste it now, but when the alcohol comes up, you will definitely spit it out, don't make trouble."
Sui Yan glared at him, turned around and stretched out a wine glass to the guest next to him, saying, "Pour me some of your wine."
The person: "… "
Jun Jingxing covered his face, it was a shame.
Fortunately, that person was the lieutenant who was snatched by Sui Yan during the day. He glanced at Sui Yan speechlessly, and he picked up the wine jar and poured him a glass.
Sui Yan's eyes were bent, and he thanked him in a soft voice.
The lieutenant did not dare, and was about to put down the wine jar when Sui Yan suddenly said, "Take it!"
The lieutenant paused and looked at Sui Yan suspiciously.
Sui Yan mixed the wine in the glass with a bunch of honey water, raised his glass to the lieutenant, and said, "You're done, I'll do whatever you want."
Lieutenant General: "..."
The lieutenant was stunned for a moment, looked at the wine jar with a big head in his hand, and said tentatively, "What... this?"
Sui Yan's expression of "of course, what else do you want to drink" is a matter of course.
Lieutenant General: "..."
Suiyan took a sip of the honey water in the glass, but didn't drink much wine.
He patted the table and said, "Drink, hurry up."
The deputy general endured the humiliation, picked up the wine jar, murmured for a long time, and drank it all in one go.
The other generals on the side saw him so arrogant, and clapped their hands to say hello. Suddenly, a group of people in the army mixed together and made a lot of noise.
Sui Yan would have vomited when he touched the wine before, but this time he drank a lot of honey water with wine, but he didn't see how uncomfortable he was, instead he kept drinking in high spirits.
Jun Jingxing was afraid that he would drink himself out, and would not let him drink anything.
Sui Yan also stopped when he saw that it was getting late, and was about to stand up and go back to sleep when Haitang suddenly rushed in from the door in a hurry.
Sui Yan said, "What's wrong?"
Haitang's face was full of fear, and she said in a trembling voice, "Young master, people from the Xing and Xing Department are here, saying they want to..."
At the same time, several officers and soldiers walked in aggressively from outside.
"Get out of the way, the Criminal Department is handling the case!"
Haitang said in a trembling voice, "... It is said that the young master communicates with foreign countries and wants to arrest you and bring you to justice."
Sui Yan was stunned for a moment.
All the guests in the hall stopped their movements in unison, and the entire hall was silent for a while.
Before Sui Yan could react, two officers and soldiers stepped forward, clasped their fists and said in a cold voice, "You have disturbed Lord Hou, please Lord Hou with us."
Sui Yan's heart trembled, his mind turned fast, and he immediately figured out the source of the foreign country.
He was about to speak when several lieutenants who had been smacking and drinking suddenly stood up and stood in front of Sui Yan like a mountain, and said coldly, "Arrest Lord Dangchao at will, you guys are really big. courage."
The lieutenants who followed Sui Xun had all been on the battlefield and had seen blood. They just stood there casually, exuding evil spirits all over their bodies, not to mention when they looked at people with cold eyes.
Several officers and soldiers were shocked, hesitated for a moment, and turned to look at the man with the paperwork.
The man spread out the document and said, "This is the will that just came out from the palace. The Marquis Sui An secretly colluded with the princess of the southern border of the previous dynasty. The evidence is conclusive, so I came here to arrest them. I hope that the generals will not miss the court affairs. Otherwise, even General Sui's subordinates would not be able to take on this responsibility."
The lieutenant said coldly: "The evidence is conclusive for collaborating with the princess of the previous dynasty, so what is the evidence? Just relying on a piece of paper, I want to take people in the Hou's mansion, my lord, do you think that we people are really just looking good? "
Sui Yan had already prepared a bunch of words to block the mouths of others, but he didn't expect that his brother's lieutenant would strike first, which directly shocked the scene.
He blinked, wondering why this person was so protective of him.
His elder brother's stinky temper that he has to use wine to comfort others must be the same for his subordinates. Suiyan tilted his head and thought for a while, and was relieved immediately, and he attributed it to the two of them for drinking the glass of wine. friendship.
The general was extremely ferocious on the surface, but he was actually sad in his heart: "If someone really takes the Marquis away under our noses, the general will definitely strip us alive, no, no, we can't be allowed to die here. Something happened to the young master."
People's minds are different.
The official holding the document looked extremely ugly, and said: "The document handed down by the emperor, you openly disobeyed, are you planning to rebel?"
The hands of the officers and soldiers were on the hilt of the knife at the waist, and it seemed that they wanted to draw the knife at the right moment.
Seeing this, the lieutenant made a "tsk" sound.
Their soldiers, who rely on military merit, are completely different from these officials and children in the capital.
He threw the cup he had been holding in his hand to the side, and without saying a word, pulled out the knife from his waist.
The soldiers on the side also drew their swords one after another, and the sound of the blade unsheathed resounded throughout the hall.
Sui Yan: "…"
Jun Jingxing: "… "
Everyone: "… "
Everyone said that people in the army are often outspoken, and if they don't say anything, they are a slap in the face. Rumors do not deceive me.
only…
This is too straightforward!
Sui Yan tentatively reached out and tugged at the sleeve of the lieutenant, "Hey, forget it."
The lieutenant said loudly: "Don't be afraid, Lord Hou, we will definitely protect you!"
Sui Yan: "…"
Alas, let's do it.
The officials of the Ministry of Punishment were startled, looked at the icy blade in awe, and said with difficulty: "The forged documents have now been handed over to the Ministry of Punishment, and the emperor ordered to arrest Sui Anhou immediately. No resistance is allowed. Military merit is not easy, so please think again."
It is really not easy for the generals and soldiers to think about their military achievements, and it is not easy for them to survive.
The knife still can't be taken back.
All the guests in the hall looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a while.
The two sides confronted each other, Sui Yan sighed softly, took a step forward, and said, "My lord, dare to ask you where did you find my foreign letters, and when did Your Majesty order me to arrest me? ?"
The official held back his anger and said, "The princess of the previous dynasty came from the south of the Yangtze River and was recommended by the second prince. The emperor took pity on her misery, and settled in a small building on the outskirts of Beijing. A few days ago, the second prince was ordered to greet her. , I overheard that the previous princess was trying to assassinate Your Majesty."
Sui Yan said in his heart, "If you do nothing like this, if you don't want to do anything, then what Li Zhao conveyed to her must be something like letting go."
"Last night, His Majesty asked people to go to Xiaozhu where the princess lived to check, and they were looking up the letters she had with the Marquis."
Sui Yan calmly said "Oh" and said, "Then dare to ask where the former princess is now?"
"As soon as the matter was exposed, she was about to get away and was arrested by the second prince," the official said, taking out a bloody veil, "She was struggling to the death and was not bound, but was shot by the guards immediately. ."
Sui Yan's eyes froze.
No wonder Wu Xing searched for a long time and did not find Wu Ying.
Jun Jingxing frowned and said, "Where's the corpse?"
"Falling into the moat, Xu Shi has already become a bait."
All in all, there is no proof in death.
The official finished speaking, and his face became better: "Marquis, we are only acting on orders, and I hope you don't embarrass us. If you really didn't do this, the Ministry of Punishment will definitely return your innocence."
Sui Yan smiled lightly, and was about to speak when a voice suddenly came from the side.
"Who is this trying to force?"
As soon as Sui Yan turned around, he saw Sui Xun and Jiang Ning coming out side by side, with indifference and sternness on their faces.
Sui Yan ran to him: "Brother."
Sui Xun stepped forward, pulled Sui Yan behind him, and looked at the officials of the Punishment Department coldly: "Sui Anhou is my younger brother, if you have anything to do with me, please tell me."
Jiang Ning took off the cumbersome wedding dress, and only changed into a red plain dress. Rao put on heavy makeup, but he still couldn't hide his heroic spirit.
She looked indifferent, waved her hand at will, and the lieutenant holding the knife was stunned for a moment, then she put the knife into the sheath, and retreated to the side to stop talking.
The official of the Ministry of Punishment repeated the words just now and said, "General Sui knows the righteousness, so please don't make it difficult for us."
Sui Xun tilted his head and glanced at Sui Yan with a solemn expression.
Sui Yan held his arm, shook his head desperately, and whispered, "It wasn't me, I didn't do this, brother believe me."
Sui Xun's brows wrinkled even more, he stretched out his hand to support Sui Yan's profile, and said coldly, "Have you been drinking?"
Sui Yan: "…"
Everyone: "… "
Sui Yan said: "I... I didn't... "
Sui Xun reprimanded: "Nonsense! You told me before that you can't drink alcohol, but what happened to you today, don't cry to me if you get sick again!"
Sui Yan: "…"
Everyone looked at the two brothers silently, and they all felt that Sui Yan's ability to grow into the current devil king of the world had nothing to do with his brother.
in the palace.
When the night fell, Duan Mingchong leaned on the bedpost and closed his eyes slightly for a nap, and suddenly heard the sound of the beams on the couch, and opened his eyes quickly.
Duan Lishu had been on fire since last night, and the whole person was almost foolish. Duan Ming Chong took care of him all day and night, and finally woke up.
Her lips were white, her eyelashes were trembling slightly, and her face was morbidly pale, which made her look distressed.
Duan Mingchong quickly grabbed her hand and said softly, "Li Shu, you finally woke up, are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
Duan Lishu coughed a few times before reluctantly recognized the person: "Brother?"
Duan Mingchong wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "It's me, you've been in a coma for a day."
He beckoned and let the servants bring the medicine in.
Duan Lishu was leaned against the soft pillow, and Duan Mingchong was feeding medicine with a spoon.
She frowned, not accustomed to the smell of medicine, and was about to turn her head to hide when she saw Duan Mingchong's tired expression, her eyes trembled, and she swallowed the medicine obediently.
After drinking a bowl of medicine, she also gained some strength.
"Brother has been here?"
Duan Mingchong tucked her quilt and said, "Well, it's good to wake up. What happened to you yesterday? I asked the person who served you carefully. You stayed in the palace yesterday and didn't go out, how could you suddenly With such a severe wind chill, do you have anything dirty in your mouth?"
Duan Lishu thought for a while and said weakly: "Last night, the second emperor came to me and brought me some folk gadgets and snacks, only that one, the rest are the same as usual."
Duan Mingchong frowned and said, "I told you, don't enter anything outside, otherwise..."
He was reprimanding, and he didn't know what to think, when his eyes suddenly froze.
Duan Lishu was scolding him with his head retracted, when he saw Duan Mingchong stop suddenly, he whispered, "Brother, I know I'm wrong, I won't dare next time."
Duan Mingchong quickly regained his senses, smiled and patted Duan Lishu's head, and said, "Then you're good, remember to take your medicine, I'll go back first."
Duan Mingchong has been taking care of her for so long, Duan Lishu has long felt guilty, and nodded hurriedly: "Send brother."
Duan Mingchong patted her head before turning around and leaving.
Just as soon as he got out of Duan Lishu's bedroom, the smile on his face suddenly fell.
Duan Mingchong looked at the palace servants who were guarding outside the dormitory, and when he found a few familiar faces, his face sank directly.
That was the person around him.
Duan Mingchong walked quickly back to the East Palace, but before entering the door, the guards rushed up to greet him: "His Royal Highness!"
Duan Mingchong was very calm and said, "What happened?"
The personal guard said: "I don't know who knew that Your Majesty Sui Anhou colluded with the princess of the previous dynasty to kill the emperor. There are all letters and letters. Now the people from the Ministry of Punishment have gone to the Hou's Mansion to get people. You, but the people outside the hall said that His Highness was busy with important things, and kept blocking his subordinates from entering, and asked them to inform them, but there has been no reply."
The people outside the princess's palace are all dignified people, so naturally he will not let him tip off.
Duan Mingchong took a breath, and said after a long time, "I know."
The guard's face was full of anxiety, and when he saw Duan Mingchong walking towards the palace, he hurriedly chased after him and said, "Is Your Highness going to leave the palace?"
Duan Mingchong said coldly, "No, it's useless to leave the palace."
