Chapter 296 Night Repair
Even so, because the scene was so shocking, I heard everything that should be heard. The eyes of some calm ladies flickered.
Six years ago...Prince...Revenge...
Just by these few keywords, you can think of many things!
Are the rumors true? Jing and Emperor were afraid that the first prince would be too outstanding, so they killed him secretly.
The queen ordered the injured or frightened female relatives to be carried to the side hall,
Shen Mingjiao came forward to appease the rest of the people, and then said with a smile, "Today, ladies and gentlemen, you are shocked... Now that this fact comes out, it is due to the lack of hospitality of the royal family..."
All the female relatives understood and got up to salute and leave. After such a thing happened, it was naturally impossible for the banquet to continue.
When everyone was almost gone, Jing and Di looked down at Princess Xiyue who was dragging him away, their eyes were a little complicated and shocked, "I never expected that it was a critical moment. It was a girl who had never met before who gave her life to save her!" "
The prince on the side bowed his head in shame when he heard this.
Princess Xiyue's face froze, and she lowered her eyes sadly: "Your Majesty, you don't remember my daughter, my daughter...my daughter is Princess Xiyue of Gaochang Kingdom! Have you ever praised my daughter?"
Because Gaochang is a subsidiary state of Daxia, Princess Xiyue can only be called a minister's daughter.
Jing and Di smiled awkwardly: "So it's Xiyue!"
Fu said again in a warm voice: "The princess tried to save me at a time of danger. I was very moved. I don't know what the princess wants? As long as I can do it, I will try my best to satisfy it."
Princess Xiyue's eyes flashed with joy. Although she failed to block the sword, her reckless behavior obviously moved the emperor. She must seize the opportunity...
She raised her head slightly, revealing a beautiful neck, a pair of purple eyes stared at Jing and Emperor relyingly and intently, and said softly:
"My daughter has nothing else to ask for, but your majesty's permission to allow my daughter to stay in the palace. My daughter is willing to serve your majesty all her life."
She used the magic arts she had learned all her life to the extreme, and the commander of the imperial army who came back to meet her purple eyes, unconsciously felt a heat in her heart, realized what she was looking at, hurriedly retracted her gaze and lowered her head, but the scene in her mind was lingering. don't go.
It's not that he is lustful, but what he saw just now seems to have inspired his instinct as a man.
Jing and Di's eyes seemed to be a little dazed: "Princess go back first, let me think about it."
Although he didn't agree on the spot, his voice was much gentler. Princess Xiyue bit her lower lip unwillingly, but she also knew that it was too late. He had to be led away obediently by the maid.
Until her back completely disappeared, Jing and Di's eyes were indifferent, as if the gentle movement just now was just an illusion.
Wei Che said lightly: "There is something wrong with this girl."
Jing and Di didn't raise their eyes: "Although she has some skills, her mind is a bit weak. I just don't know if she just wants to enter the palace, or is today's assassination directed and performed by herself?"
Bringing this matter up, Wei Che knelt down in shame: "These jugglers were recruited by the minister. It was the minister who was negligent and allowed the thieves to take advantage of the loopholes. Please punish them by Your Majesty."
Jing and Emperor hurriedly helped him up, and said angrily: "What are you doing? How many years have we been friends, and I can't trust you! Since someone wants to assassinate me, even if there is no today's incident, it will happen sooner or later .”
When talking about this, his tone was very flat, as if he didn't take this assassination seriously at all.
The prince became more and more ashamed, so he stepped forward and asked him to find out who was behind the scenes.
Jing and Di glanced at him, and their complexions finally looked better. Let him and Dali Temple Minister investigate this matter together.
…
Outside the palace, a certain room in the Honglu Temple Pavilion for foreign guests. A young man in a gray robe stood by the window.
The profile of the young man's profile is deep, with an exotic beauty.
However, if you look at it from the front, you will feel shocking. You can see that one side of the young man's cheek is covered with horizontal and horizontal ugly burns, and he is also blind in one eye. It looked terrible and ugly.
At this time, a guard dressed as a person from the Western Regions came in silently.
The young man did not turn his head, and said in a low voice: "It failed." He used an affirmative tone.
His voice was hoarse and dry, apparently from a throat injury.
The guard lowered his head in shame: "Yes."
The young man didn't ask any more questions, but his face became more and more gloomy. The atmosphere in the room was stagnant, and the guard lowered his head desperately, not even daring to catch his breath.
Finally, the young man with his hands behind his back spoke again: "The princess hasn't come back yet?"
The guard buried his head even lower: "...No."
After a while, the young man waved his hand: "Go down! Let the princess come to see me when she comes back."
The guards bowed their heads as if they were being pardoned and left quickly.
As soon as she reached the door, she saw Princess Xiyue approaching from a distance, followed by seven or eight eunuchs holding gift boxes.
…
Princess Xiyue sent the little **** off, and when she turned around, she couldn't suppress the smile on her face.
The young man turned to look at her, "Tell me, what did you do in the palace?"
Hearing his questioning tone, Princess Xiyue immediately lost her temper:
"Yexiu, who gave you the courage to talk to Ben Gong in such a tone?"
Ye Xiu didn't speak, but looked at her sarcastically.
Seeing him like this, Princess Xiyue's face was a little uncomfortable. Others don't know, but she, including those in the Gaochang royal family, don't know that she is not Princess Xiyue at all!
The real Princess Xiyue died in the accident six years ago. She was just picked by her master since childhood. Deliberately cultivated meticulous work. There are many others like her.
She glared at Ye Xiu angrily: "Don't forget, if I hadn't kindly taken you in, you would have starved to death on the street!"
However, the fact is that five years ago, she was just sent to the Gaochang Palace, and her life was not good because she was excluded.
Later, the dirty Yexiu found her and said that he could help her gain a firm foothold in the palace.
Afterwards, he did do it, but at the same time he became a celebrity in front of the master, and even overwhelmed her in the limelight.
Ye Xiu seemed not to hear her question, and repeated the previous question again: "What did you do in the palace?"
Mentioning this, Princess Xiyue proudly raised her chin and told what she did in the palace today.
After Ye Xiu heard this, his face was gloomy and terrifying, and he gritted his teeth and cursed "Idiot" in a low voice.
Hearing that she was being scolded, Princess Xiyue wanted to get angry, but when she met his gloomy gaze, she immediately shut her mouth fortunately. But in my heart I was very dissatisfied.
At this moment, the hoarse and cold voice of the man on the other side came from the ear: "Haven't you ever thought about who wants to assassinate Emperor Daxia?"
"Whoever he is, follow me..."
Halfway through the conversation, I suddenly realized something, and my face turned pale:
"You... you mean... yes... the master..."
Ye Xiu didn't speak, but just stared at her with a gloomy expression.
Princess Xiyue really panicked now, she stammered:
"You... why didn't you tell me earlier! No, the guards around Emperor Daxia are very powerful... Even if I didn't rush out at that time, the assassination would not be successful... Yes... I am not wrong."
She convinced herself over and over again in her heart that if her master's good deed was ruined because of her, then her fate after returning would be unimaginable.
Ye Xiu still looked at her sarcastically, "Do you really understand? It doesn't matter whether you saved Emperor Daxia now, what is important is that with your meddling, Emperor Daxia will definitely guess that the assassin and you are the same Guy, I think you directed and acted in a play for his favor."
As he spoke, his face became more and more ugly: "Even if the assassination failed, Jing and Emperor couldn't find us. Now it's good. Because you are smart, you personally sent the clues to them."
Princess Xiyue's face turned completely pale: "I... I didn't know it would happen, so what should I do now!"
Ye Xiu seemed too lazy to talk nonsense with her, but the matter had to be resolved, so he had to take a sip of tea and said patiently:
"I told you a long time ago, your goal is King Su, why don't you listen!"
Princess Xiyue bit her lips in anger: "I don't want to, it's not like you don't know what happened at the palace banquet half a year ago, His Royal Highness Su Wang doesn't like me at all, and there is a difficult Princess Su!
And even though King Su has the military power, he can't be the emperor after all, I just don't understand. Instead of approaching King Su, why not directly target Emperor Daxia, so that if the master wants to do something in the future, wouldn't it be more convenient to do it! "
Yexiu sneered: "Why? Because you're stupid. Gaochang is just a small country in the Western Regions, which is completely different from the Great Xia Kingdom. If the master's plan is to be achieved, it must be disintegrated from within the Great Xia Kingdom.
King Su's scheming strategy is not bad, and he controls the military power, but the prince is obviously much different from King Su. But in the future, King Su will succumb to such a person. You don't think he will feel injustice in his heart! What we have to do is to provoke the relationship between King Su and Emperor Daxia. It is best to encourage him to rebel. Only when there is internal chaos in Daxia, the master will have a chance.
As for that Princess Su, she is just a woman. The key lies in King Su. "
Princess Xiyue knew he was right. "Ke Su is not easy to get close to!"
Yexiu's eyes were dark: "Didn't the master give you a pair of love Gu before you came? Just find a chance to put it on King Su, and then King Su will naturally trust you wholeheartedly."
Think of the face of His Royal Highness King Su. Princess Xiyue no longer hesitated, but...
She stared at Ye Xiu's ugly and gloomy face in disgust, and said with sarcasm: "It seems that you are targeting King Su! You have a grudge against King Su!"
Ye Xiu didn't bother to talk to her, "This is the master's order."
Before leaving the room, he asked worriedly: "Then what should we do this time?"
Yexiu continued to sit upright, without raising his head, he said: "I will solve it,"
…
Because of this incident, the palace was really in chaos for a while, and several female relatives were injured. After some comfort and treatment, when Shen Mingjiao helped the queen finish the chores and returned to King Su's mansion. It was already dark.
She was tired all day, and she didn't have the heart to think about anything else. After washing and laying down on the bed, she fell asleep not long after.
Woke up the next day, listening to Er Ya's gossip every day. After learning about what happened yesterday, rumors and gossips in the upper circles of the capital really kept going. She had expected this.
When the leading assassin said that yesterday, there were so many people present, even if Jing and the emperor issued a password-locked order, it is impossible to hide the news.
