Long grabbed the prince into an unoccupied place and pumped his butt, not a heavy hand, but enough for the prince to drink a pot.
After Empress Xiao returned to Kunning Palace, she sent someone to bring Xiao Hengxuan into the palace.
It is inconvenient to enter Kunning Palace as a man other than Xiao Heng, and Empress Xiao met him in the side hall of Huaqing Palace.
Ever since she came from the Golden Palace, Empress Xiao's mind has not stopped doubting.
From the moment Xiao Heng received the summons, he understood that paper couldn't hold fire, and some things would come sooner or later, not to mention that at this stage, there was nothing to hide from Empress Xiao.
Xiao Heng first told everything about what Concubine Jing had done, and there were some things that Princess Xinyang didn't mention, for example, she was given to death by the emperor.
Empress Xiao had been waiting for Xiao Heng for a while, but at this moment, when she heard that the emperor had given death the most beloved Concubine Jing, she didn't feel much in her heart.
Just a little sad.
It is said that the emperor's family is ruthless, but Empress Xiao understands that the emperor is a very affectionate person, and the prince perfectly inherited his affection, so she fell deeply into Wen Linlang.
"Then, what about Princess Ning'an? What happened to her?"
Compared to Concubine Jing, who had already been resolved, Empress Xiao cared more about the living royal princess in front of her. "Ning An... Does she really want to harm Xinyang?"
Xiao Heng shook his head: "That's not true."
Princess Ning'an came back for revenge, but the object of revenge was not Princess Xinyang.
Her Majesty, Auntie, Gu Jiao, Gu Family... are her ultimate targets of revenge. In Ning An's view, His Majesty and the Empress Dowager killed Concubine Jing, while Gu Jiao and Gu Changqing killed their concubine.
Empress Xiao frowned: "What are you doing with the girl from the Gu family?" She could understand the other three, but wasn't the concubine killed by Gu Changqing
Xiao Heng said: "During the frontier, I brought plague patients to Yu Xie, and tried to use them to poison Gu's army. Jiaojiao was treating a patient who was unfortunately infected. Jiaojiao didn't know it. I went back. The concubine was also infected, and Jiaojiao didn't give him any medicine."
Queen Xiao said indignantly: "Of course this kind of bastard can't be administered! So what? She put the blame on the head of the Gu family girl? But didn't they bring the plague themselves? It is said to be self-inflicted! What do you do with the girl of the Gu family!"
Xiao Heng said calmly: "Some people are unreasonable, and if they are reasonable, they won't become that kind of person."
Empress Xiao sighed: "That's true. So it seems that she didn't really kill her family by giving up her concubine, but she had no choice."
Xiao Heng continued: "Listen to Jiaojiao, her relationship with the concubine has been strained since before the concubine was diagnosed with the plague. Now that I think about it, she may have thought about every step of retreat from a very early time."
Even the concubine couldn't understand her thoughts, she just thought she was really estranged from herself.
"This person's mind is too deep... Why didn't you find her so scheming before?" Empress Xiao frowned, and the bright smile of the young girl Ning An flashed in her mind, and she couldn't believe it for a while.
Next, Xiao Heng told Empress Xiao about the Xianleju case, as well as Princess Ning'an's killing of Sun Ping, persecuting His Majesty, and bribing Li Shilang to slander Xing Shangshu and Empress Dowager Zhuang.
Of course, there was also the matter of Princess Ning'an forging two imperial edicts.
Empress Xiao was so angry that her face turned blue: "How unreasonable! How unreasonable!"
Her teeth were itching with anger, and it took a long while to suppress her anger and asked Xiao Heng, "Is the queen mother all right?"
Xiao Heng said: "It's okay, the Queen Mother lives in Bishui Hutong, it's very safe."
"That's good." Queen Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, "You have to be careful yourself."
Xiao Heng nodded: "We will."
Empress Xiao looked at him again, with a bit of complexity in her eyes: "Speaking of which, you guys are too daring to learn from Ning'an's forgery of imperial decrees, and you even found someone to pretend to be Princess Xinyang!"
She just said that yesterday's Princess Xinyang was so weird, she spoke yin and yang, and she fell to the ground in front of her! Everyone in the harem saw it!
This is to let Xinyang know that they must not be peeled off!
Empress Xiao thought that she would be miserable for them.
Empress Xiao said again: "Also, if your mother didn't come back in time, how should you deal with the situation in the Golden Palace this morning?"
This Xiao Heng really thought about it.
Yesterday, after Gu Jiao and Gu Chengfeng came back from following Princess Ning An, they found that Gu Chengfeng's skirt had been scraped off a bit of gold yarn. At that time, they guessed that their identity might have been exposed.
Princess Ning'an will definitely expose them, the sooner the better.
And the most powerful opportunity is the first court appearance of "Princess Xinyang".
Just as they were thinking about countermeasures, Princess Xinyang came back.
It came back quietly, without disturbing anyone.
It is worth mentioning that Gu Jiao's disguised identity was not fabricated out of thin air. There was indeed a maid named Yu'er in the house on Zhuque Street, and the human skin mask that Gu Jiao wore was based on her face.
There is still some rigor in the two lists of Jinshi Hanlin officials.
Princess Ning'an's trouble in front of the courtiers today is a complete overturn. Princess Xinyang is not easy to mess with, just because she doesn't play tricks doesn't mean she won't, she just disdains it.
Queen Xiao sighed that these guys are really new-born calves who are not afraid of tigers, how could the death penalty come, but they still beat the old master to death.
I don't know whether to say that they were lucky or to say that Ning An was unlucky.
Empress Xiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "What are you going to do next?"
Xiao Heng said: "There is still a force in the dark, and the next step is to wipe out that force."
Empress Xiao pondered for a moment and asked, "Where did that power come from?"
Xiao Heng paused: "The country of Yan."
Empress Xiao took a deep breath!
…
Xiao Heng confessed everything that should be confessed. The only thing he didn't mention was that the power of the Yan Kingdom was directed at him.
It's not that I dare not tell Empress Xiao, but I just don't know how to speak.
He was afraid that if he mentioned it again and again, he would get closer and closer to something.
He was also afraid that one day he would leave Princess Xinyang's side to find the truth that he shouldn't be looking for at all.
He has only one mother, Princess Xinyang.
…
Bishui Hutong.
Gu Jiao sat listlessly in the main room peeling corn. Last night, Long Yi dragged her charcoal pen for the whole night. She was sleepy and tired at the moment, and her little head kept pecking at the rice.
Gu Chengfeng came over, sat down in front of her, and shook his hand: "Hey, girl!"
Gu Jiao ignored him and continued pecking at the rice.
Almost pecked at the table, Gu Chengfeng hurriedly stretched out the back of his hand and put it on her forehead.
Gu Jiao closed her eyes in disgust: "Your hands are so hard."
Gu Chengfeng: You still despise it if you are a cushion! Is it the back of my hand or the hard table!
Gu Jiao sat up straight.
Gu Chengfeng looked at her strangely: "What's wrong with you?"
"I didn't sleep well." Gu Jiao yawned, "My hands are sore in the morning."
Gu Chengfeng made a cut, took the corn cobs that Gu Jiao had peeled in half, and said, "Why do you women have sore hands? They're not men!"
Gu Jiao asked, "Why can't women get sore hands?"
"Female..." Gu Chengfeng realized what he had just said halfway through, choked abruptly, and cleared his throat, "I'm so hungry, let's see if there's anything to eat later!"
After all, he walked away in a hurry, even forgetting to put the corn cobs back.
When Xiao Heng came back from the palace, Gu Jiao was already lying on the table and fell asleep, drooling.
The family went out, not even Gu Xiaobao and Yao Shi, so it was no surprise that they went to see their aunt to play cards again.
Xiao Heng came behind Gu Jiao and gently carried Gu Jiao back to the east room, took off her outer clothes and shoes, and pulled the quilt to cover her.
Gu Jiao turned towards him. He was arranging Gu Jiao's hair when he was caught off guard by Gu Jiao pressing his hand under his cheek.
There is a soft and delicate touch in the palm.
His heart seemed to be rubbed by something.
He sat down on the edge of the bed without pulling his hands out.
He looked at her, and the corners of his lips twitched slightly unconsciously.
Gu Jiao slept soundly and deeply.
The charcoal basin was originally ordered in the room, and it was warm. After a while, she became hot all over, and her cheeks became flushed.
Xiao Heng felt the heat in his palm, he looked at her face, stretched out his other hand unconsciously, and brushed away the blue silk on her face.
Then he slowly lowered his head.
But just as he was about to kiss him, he suddenly felt something. He turned his head and saw a masked face approaching him at some point, with wide innocent and stern eyes, looking at him suspiciously.
Xiao Heng sat up straight!
Long Yi also sat up straight.
Xiao Heng was sitting on the bed, and Long Yi was sitting on the small bench in the small clear space.
Xiao Heng's eyelashes trembled. Thinking of what Long saw just now, his ears flushed slightly, and he said sternly, "You can't do this."
Long Yi understood.
Xiao Heng said again: "No one else can do this to her."
Long Yi looked at the sky, thought about it, and probably understood it.
Xiao Meiren: You can't ask Jiaojiao to stick a pen in the future.
What Long Yi heard was: Slightly Slightly, looking for Jiaojiao to poke a pen~
