The prince looked at Zhu Yi who had stopped moving, and ordered in a hoarse voice: "Continue."
As soon as the words fell, someone came in from outside the hall and said, "Your Highness, the prince is seeking to see you outside."
The prince was taken aback for a moment, his brows furrowed tightly showing his displeasure, and he still said: "Please come in."
Zhu Yi turned her head and saw Zhu Ning who was brought in by a strange man, immediately hid her hairpin in her sleeve, and said to him, "A Ning!"
Zhu Ning had heard that she was going to bring her to find Zhu Yi, so she was obedient and didn't cry or protest. When she saw someone, she immediately threw herself into her sister's arms and said, "Yi Yi, I have a headache."
Zhu Yi looked at Zhu Ning's pale face and teary eyes, and rubbed the other's head with distress. She was asking the prince to pass on the imperial physician, and the princess also arrived, saying: "Xizhen, don't worry, the imperial physician will be here soon." arrive."
Ruan Yu looked at Zhu Yi from the sidelines. The girl's long soft hair was loose, and her dress was neat. Apart from worrying about Zhu Ning, there was not much panic on her face. It can be seen that the prince was not in a hurry and did not destroy the flowers by force.
Then he bowed to Zhu Yi: "Minister Ruan Yu has seen Princess Xizhen."
Ruan Yu knew well that he did have the plan to have the pair of sisters serving together as a husband in the future, but he asked himself how he kept his thoughts on Zhu Yi secret, and he didn't like the prying eyes of the previous princess. For men, power and women are what they pursue most in their lives. To have such a beautiful woman is even a display of power in disguise.
He already had an unforgettable old relationship with Zhu Ning, and Zhu Yi was born with all kinds of things, but to his liking, even if both of them were brought into the harem, it would not be a big deal. The former princess could not escape the fate of being picked by the new ruler.
What's more, seeing how good Zhu Yi and Zhu Ning's relationship is, I'm not afraid that they will be jealous. If he gets these two sisters to serve together, it will be an extremely beautiful thing that all men in the world yearn for.
Zhu Yi took a look at this elegant-looking man, and realized that this was the person who helped the prince usurp power. That Xie Ying was imprisoned in Qianling was naturally his handwriting, so her face was always cold.
Ruan Yu didn't seem to notice Zhu Yi's resistance, but said, "I don't know about Princess Xizhen, but do you know what Princess Yong'an's headache is all about?"
Zhu Yi looked outside at the still dark sky, asked the time, and knew that it was Zhu Ning who should give the needle. I was anxious, I don't know what kind of changes will be made to Zhu Ning's condition if the treatment is interrupted like this. But she didn't dare to name Gu Nanci, for fear that the other party would also be imprisoned.
Zhu Yi said: "Since she was injured, Ah Ning sometimes suffers from headaches, especially when she is frightened." He said again: "Brother Huang, let me take care of Eldest Sister. You know she has always been close to me."
The prince looked at Zhu Yi and smiled, and understood her little thoughts. After thinking about it, Zhu Yi is already in his hands, so he is not in a hurry. Besides, it was almost dawn, and he was going to ascend the throne today, so he left with Ruan Yu without further ado.
Before leaving, the prince winked at the princess. The princess knew that the prince wanted her to persuade Zhu Yi to forget Xie Ying, so although she had no choice but to talk to Zhu Yi as she said. Seeing that Zhu Yi looked cold and didn't react at all, he ordered someone to lock the door and backed out.
It was too cold, Zhu Ning and Zhu Yi shrank to the kang. "Yiyi, I'm afraid. Why are they shutting us down?" Zhu Ning's headache eased, and she hugged her knees and spoke against Zhu Yi.
"Don't be afraid, I will stay with Ah Ning." Zhu Ning was too anxious, so Zhu Yi asked her to lie on his lap, and gently rubbed the other's temple. He untied Zhu Ning's hair and helped her massage her scalp. Zhu Ning was sleepy, and finally fell asleep under Zhu Yi's comfort.
Although Zhu Yi didn't rest all night, she couldn't fall asleep at all. She moved Zhu Ning to the pillow and stared at her sleeping face in a daze.
Until almost noon, when Xie Ying and Rong Ting appeared in this room of the East Palace, they saw Zhu Yi sitting on the edge of the heating Kang, staring at the ground with his eyes open. And Zhu Ning, who was lying beside Zhu Yi, was still asleep.
"Princess." Zhu Yi was taken aback by the sudden male voice. She raised her head and saw the familiar Qingjun face, thinking that she too was dreaming.
But Xie Ying's figure flickered, and she had come to Zhu Yi, pulling her up and hugging her into his arms. The warm and firm chest made her wake up instantly.
"Xie Ying?" Zhu Yi dared to let go of his worry and fear until now, his nose sore, and his eyes became watery. "I knew you would come back."
Xie Ying pecked Zhu Yi's forehead: "Of course, the princess is here, why am I reluctant to come back. Yiyi can only belong to me, and I will haunt you even if I am a ghost."
He originally wanted to play a joke on her, to tease her, so that her frown would not be so tight, but Zhu Yi couldn't hear the word "be a ghost" at this time, it was even more exciting and full of fear in his chest Unexpectedly, the tears in the eyes fell down.
Xie Ying was most afraid of seeing Zhu Yi cry, so she called out "Don't cry" twice, but seeing that Zhu Yi didn't listen, he lowered his head and kissed Zhu Yi's lips. Although it was just to divert Zhu Yi's attention, the lips touched lightly, but...
After checking Zhu Ning's situation, Rong Ting turned his head and saw this extremely eye-catching scene, and immediately coughed heavily, it was heart-piercing.
Zhu Yi's body trembled, and she quickly buried her blushing face into Xie Ying's chest. She was indeed too excited to see Xie Ying, and forgot that her brother-in-law was beside her. With Xie Ying's face, naturally he didn't feel uncomfortable at all, instead he cast a look at Rong Ting who blamed Zhu Yi for frightening him.
After a while, Zhu Yi poked her head out of Xie Ying's arms and said, "Brother-in-law, Ah Ning is fine, she just fell asleep."
"Yeah." Rong Ting picked up Zhu Ning and said seriously, "Let's go."
It was broad daylight, before Zhu Yi left, he glanced outside the East Palace, and was unexpectedly surrounded by the hard-wearing imperial guards, but the doors and windows were tightly covered, and the cold wind outside was loud, and Xie Ying and Rong Ting attacked Neatly, there was no movement inside.
It was Xie Ying and Rong Ting who came out, and they let them go immediately. Zhu Yi looked at Xie Ying again. Instead of the white plain clothes before leaving the palace, he had changed into black clothes, and his hair seemed to have been combed again. It looked the same, but his face was two points less bloody than usual.
Zhu Yi then asked what she wanted to ask earlier: "Xie Ying, your complexion is not good, are you injured?"
"No, I'm just a little tired." Seeing that Zhu Yi was still questioning, he said, "If the princess doesn't believe it, I'll let you see it when I go back."
Zhu Yi had no choice but to ask again: "Then what happened afterwards? Father... and Xie Shao and the others also came out of Qianling? Or is it just you?"
"I'll take you to drink water and eat something first. I'll tell you slowly." Xie Ying looked at Zhu Yi's rarely dry and chapped lips.
Zhu Ning also woke up at this time, and the two sisters were taken to a nearby restaurant.
The food was served quickly. The winter soup was steaming hot, and the meat porridge was also hot. The two sisters were so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs, and they seemed to be wolfing down food.
The two men ate slowly, and patted Zhu Yi and Zhu Ning on the back from time to time, for fear that they would choke and burn. However, Xie Ying and Rong Ting looked at each other as usual, but they exchanged cold and bloodthirsty eyes that they only understood.
Xie Ying took Zhu Ning to catch Zhu Yi'er whispering in her ear, and said in a low voice, "Ruan Yu has entered the capital. Can Nan Ci treat Princess Yong'an's head disease slowly?"
Rong Ting glanced at Zhu Ning, shook his head and said, "No, you finally invited Nanci to Beijing."
Zhu Yi noticed that Xie Ying and Rong Ting were also talking secretly, and wanted to ask the prince what was going on there, but since he was in an ordinary restaurant, he had no choice but to give up.
The prince that Zhu Yi wanted to ask had already been tied up and forced to kneel on the golden brick floor of Qiantai Palace, with distortion and resentment on his face that refused to admit defeat.
The emperor looked at the son who had cost him the most effort, waved his hands to make the others retreat, and said in a deep voice: "In order to lead Xie Ying and the others into the underground palace, I would rather risk myself than break you into it. Let you sit in the palace." In the palace, it is not only my love for you, but also my trust in you. It is good for you, you will not stop doing one thing, and want to get rid of me as well!"
The prince sneered, disapproving of the emperor's self-proclaimed rhetoric: "Trust? If the emperor really trusts me, can you still stand in the palace and scold me at this moment? It means that the emperor still has a hand."
The emperor was trembling with anger, and almost didn't bring it up: "What do you mean, you don't know your mistakes and don't know how to repent? What did I do to make you so unfaithful and unfilial?"
"It was you who killed the queen mother! Using her death to set up a situation in the imperial mausoleum, trying to catch Xie Ying and Yan Fengqin all at once." The crown prince's eyes were red, and he showed a deep smile: "Just for one game, you killed my mother queen! "
"Stupid! The situation of the Imperial Mausoleum was discussed by you and me. Now, how come it is decided by me alone? Your mother and queen were not killed by me. This is someone trying to drive a wedge between our father and son."
The prince laughed and said, "Divorce? Does our father-son relationship still need to be divorced? Didn't the father already plan to abolish my East Palace and establish another crown prince!"
The emperor's voice came out from between his teeth: "Who told me that I want to abolish your crown prince?"
"You don't need to tell anyone. That day when Father and Xizhen were talking in the South Study Room, I just happened to come, just outside. You tell Xizhen that if she does something for you, she will pass the throne to Zhu Xiuli. Don't fool me It was to plot against Xizhen, since you said it, it means that you have such thoughts in your heart! If I don't agree with you, I will become your abandoned son at any time!"
The emperor was thrown around in the underground palace. His face was already haggard, but now he looked more and more old and tired: "You were entrusted with the crown prince since you were a child, and you read the classics of history books, and received the best education. This is what you learned?"
The prince snorted coldly and said nothing, as if he knew that he would not escape punishment, he simply smashed the jar. The emperor stared at the prince, shaking his head sadly.
"Although what the feudal lords did was treasonous things, they also knew that they had a moral high ground, won people's hearts, and gained a good reputation. Ruan Yu instigated you to kill your father, but he himself escaped from his shell without leaving a shadow. Xie Ying this In the Qianling Mausoleum again, you made great contributions in escorting and serving as a great hero. How about you? Giving someone a handle will ruin your reputation! If you are half as good as Xie Ying..."
"Shut up! Don't mention Xie Ying to me!" The setback of the crushing defeat nearly collapsed the sanity of the prince who had been smooth sailing since he was a child.
The emperor looked at the poisonous snake with hatred in his eyes, and Thunder said angrily, "You still dare to tell me to shut up? My other sons, except A Li, who was too young to go to the underground palace, were all killed by you!"
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" Zhen Xi's cat-like cry appeared outside the hall, and the emperor's heart softened and he ordered her to come into the hall. Zhen Xi glanced at the prince in fear, and was embraced by the emperor: "Xi Xi, don't be afraid, don't cry."
While patting Zhen Xi, the emperor commanded: "Put the crown prince in the Zongzhengyuan temporarily." Then asked: "Where is Princess Xizhen?"
The servant below replied: "Commander Lu said that the princess was taken out of the palace by Mr. Xie and went to Princess Yong'an's mansion."
In the Princess Mansion, Gu Nanci was the first to be sent back. After receiving the news that she was asked to re-diagnose Zhu Ning's condition, she walked into the main courtyard through another door. From a distance, she saw Xie Ying and Zhu Yi walking away. In front, two people are very close to each other.
From the rear, even in winter clothes, Zhu Yi's waist can be called slender and light in the palm. It makes people want to use their hands to measure how thin the waist is after removing the winter clothes.
Xie Ying, who had already measured it with his hands, obviously liked it even more. He put his hands around Zhu Yi's waist from the back, and kneaded her waist twice. Zhu Yi seemed to be unbearably itchy, twisted a few times, and slapped the man's hand hard to break free. Xie Ying took a long time to withdraw her hand, as if nothing had happened.
