...
Qiu Ruoruo knelt on the ground.
It had just rained a few days ago, and the ground was still a little cool.
In the Chu Palace, the servants were busy, and there were many doctors standing beside Qiu Ruoruo, but these people standing were far less calm than Qiu Ruoruo.
Just because Jiang Xiyue hasn't woken up yet.
kneel.
This is naturally not what Qiu Ruoruo is willing to do.
But she is also a good girl who understands current affairs, and she also acts as if she is "apologising".
Qiu Ruoruo has been kneeling for half an hour, and there is pain in her knees, but this is not important.
Now after arriving at Prince Chu's Mansion, Qiu Ruoruo began to wonder why Jiang Xiyue suddenly vomited blood and fell into coma?
Was he really being assassinated, or was there another reason?
When she first entered the Prince of Chu's Mansion, Qiu Ruoruo once thought that Jiang Xiyue was pretending to be comatose and wanted to wrongly accuse her.
But seeing Xiang Jinghao's furious look and the panicked doctors, Qiu Ruoruo knew that Princess Chu in the room was really unconscious.
Qiu Ruoruo rubbed her knees with both hands and looked at the two guards guarding her side.
How would Brother Xiaoyu feel if he knew that his mother had suffered retribution?
However, this damn Xiaoyu brother hasn’t contacted me for so long. Where did he die? Not even Liuying can find him.
…
At this moment, in front of the Chengming Hall in the imperial palace, Qiu Yu was kneeling in front of the tall palace gate, waiting for the emperor on the dragon throne to reply.
Chu Emperor Xiao Yuande had already heard about the turmoil in front of Qiu Mansion. When Xiang Jinghao appeared in front of Qiu Mansion, people kept sending news from outside the palace.
Xiao Yuande knew that sooner or later this matter would come to the palace and in front of him.
After Xiang Jinghao returned, the Chu Palace began to become more conspicuous in Kyoto.
Princess Chu, who originally lived in seclusion, often appeared in Baiweiju.
But Xiang Jinghao dared to provoke Qiu Mansion, which was not a wise move. After all, the Qiu Mansion has been in Kyoto much longer than the Chu Prince's Mansion.
What Chu Emperor Xiao Yuande didn't expect was that Xiao Jingyu would also intervene in this matter.
After hearing Qiu Yu's resignation, Xiao Yuande was silent for a long time.
Immediately, he looked at Xiao Jingyu and said, "What do you want here?"
Xiao Jingyu failed to stop Qiu Yu. Faced with Xiao Yuande's question, he respectfully replied: "Reporting to my father, I saw the Crown Prince of Chu confronting Mr. Qiu. I am afraid that there is some misunderstanding and that the two of them will be injured." To make peace, I want to mediate."
Xiao Yuande knew the relationship between Xiao Jingyu and the Chu Palace, so he asked: "Qiu Yu, is this like this?"
Qiu Yu didn't squint his eyes and said loudly: "That's not the case. Xiang Jinghao was lawless and wanted to use Qiu Ruoruo, the daughter of a minor official, to make amends to Princess Chu, but Xiang Jinghao had no evidence and was simply framed Ruoruo. "
"I have been ordered by Your Majesty to command the army and horse divisions of the five cities to protect the capital. Anyone who encounters trouble in the streets should be taken back to prison according to the laws of Dachu."
"However, the third prince blocked it and assisted Xiang Jinghao to capture Wei Chen's daughter. Wei Chen refused to accept this matter!"
Xiao Jingyu's heart trembled. He didn't expect Qiu Yu to be so straightforward. Although he did help Xiang Jinghao at that time, Qiu Yu said this in front of Emperor Chu, and he was clearly going to break up with him!
"Father!" Xiao Jingyu said hurriedly: "My son..."
Xiao Yuande interrupted Xiao Jingyu and said calmly: "Qiu Yu, since Jing Yu is obstructing official duties, why don't you arrest him too?"
Qiu Yu's heart suddenly turned cold. He didn't know what Xiao Yuande meant by this. Xiao Jingyu is a prince, and even if he commits a heinous crime, it is not something that he, Qiu Yu, can catch.
But what does Xiao Yuande mean, and how should he reply to this?
Qiu Yu was not Qiu Jinfeng, nor Qiu Ruoruo, but he stayed there for a while.
Xiao Jingyu was equally puzzled.
Obstructing official business, Xiao Yuande has already concluded in Xiao Jingyu's mind that Xiao Jingyu is meddling in other people's business.
Xiao Yuande gave the two of them time to think, but after only a moment, Xiao Yuande continued: "Qiu Yu, do you know that Xiao Jingyu is the prince!"
Qiu Yu said in a deep voice: "I know. So I don't dare to go beyond the rules and ask for my resignation from your majesty."
Xiao Yuande suddenly said angrily: "Are you asking for resignation? It's clear that the boss is resigning to threaten me."
"You're going to resign over such a trivial matter. Do you really think that Da Chu can't live without you Qiu Yu?"
Xiao Yuande's anger lies in Qiu Yu's resignation. As a king, he didn't like the feeling of being threatened.
Qiu Yu's use of resignation to force Xiao Yuande has already touched Xiao Yuande's objections.
Qiu Yu put his head on the ground and said, "I am guilty!"
Xiao Jingyu smiled in his heart. This move of turning retreat into advance was a failure. Qiu Yu was also stupid and threatened his father with resignation.
"Guilty!" Xiao Yuande said angrily, "Of course you are guilty!"
Qiu Yu couldn't figure out Xiao Yuande's thoughts, so he could only kneel on the ground and wait for Xiao Yuande to lecture.
Because of Qiu Yu's complaint just now, Xiao Jingyu already held a grudge against him in his heart. Besides, between the Qiu family and the Chu Palace, Xiao Jingyu naturally chose the Chu Palace.
Xiao Jingyu glanced at Qiu Yu and watched Qiu Yu being scolded by Xiao Yuande.
Xiao Yuande walked step by step in front of Qiu Yu, and the imperial power he had developed over many years fell on Qiu Yu without any cover.
"You don't care about Xiang Jinghao causing trouble in the street, but come to me to resign! Is this what you, the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, do?"
"You are like this. You can't even protect your own daughter. How can I trust you to protect Kyoto?"
Qiu Yu lowered his head with a confused look on his face and thought to himself: Are you blaming me? It doesn’t seem like that?
Xiao Jingyu became more and more confused as he listened. What happened to his father?
The more they listened, the more something was wrong, and Xiao Yuande's tone became weird.
Qiu Yu's scalp suddenly became numb, and he raised his head and said, "Your Majesty, I understand. This official, I will not say goodbye for now. I will wait until Ruoruo is rescued from the fire pit, and then I will apologize to Your Majesty!"
After saying that, Qiu Yu kowtowed heavily and said loudly: "Wei Chen, please retire!"
Xiao Yuande stared blankly at Qiu Yu who turned to leave, "Did I let you go?"
Xiao Yuande sighed in his heart, Qiu Yu was not as "understanding" as Qiu Jinfeng.
However, Xiao Yuande also likes Qiu Yu's straightforward character.
Xiao Jingyu finally understood. Xiao Yuande's words seemed to blame Qiu Yu, but in fact they told Qiu Yu not to bother him with such trivial matters.
At this moment, Xiao Jingyu couldn't understand Xiao Yuande more and more. He didn't even know why Xiao Yuande asked Qiu Yu if he knew the identity of his prince.
He was clearly talking about the noble status of the prince, but he changed the subject and reprimanded Qiu Yu for allowing the prince of Chu to cause trouble in the street.
Xiao Jingyu was also involved in the troubles caused by King Chu's eldest son Xiang Jinghao. Doesn't this mean that Qiu Yu should also stop Xiao Jingyu!
The contradictory words made Xiao Jingyu more and more confused.
"Father, if nothing happens, I will leave first." Xiao Jingyu said.
Xiao Yuande said, "There's no need to be in such a hurry."
Xiao Jingyu gave up the idea of leaving again and looked at Xiao Yuande.
Xiao Yuande turned around and walked towards the dragon chair, saying as he walked: "Yu'er, since you returned to Beijing from Nanzhou Mansion, I haven't talked to you a few times. This is my negligence as a father."
Xiao Jingyu said hurriedly: "My father is busy with government affairs, and I dare not let my father worry about it anymore."
Xiao Yuande shook his head, sat on the dragon chair, and said frankly: "You practiced with the King of Chu in Nanzhou Mansion and made many meritorious deeds. I know all these achievements. And what I know even more is that you did what you did. What."
When Xiao Jingyu heard this, his eyes trembled, but he did a good job of covering up the panic that flashed across his face.
Xiao Jingyu was silent. No matter how Xiao Yuande understood all this, since Xiao Yuande took the initiative to bring up the matter, Xiao Jingyu was only waiting for Xiao Yuande's attitude.
Xiao Yuande sat upright and said to Xiao Jingyu, "I can give you a chance!"
Just such a sentence made Xiao Jingyu extremely excited.
Only he understood everything behind this sentence.
This is a chance to fight for the throne.
Xiao Jingyu's pupils were shaking, and his eager light kept flashing.
"My dear father, thank you very much for your support!"
Xiao Jingyu's covetousness for the throne is not a secret. The third prince Xiao Jingyu has always been much more diligent in moving around the court than Xiao Jingyao, who was established as the prince early.
But Xiao Jingyao is the eldest son. Although his political and military achievements are not as dazzling as Xiao Jingyu's, he has never made any mistakes and has a reputation of being tolerant.
Therefore, Xiao Jingyao has firmly maintained his position as prince in the past few years.
Xiao Jingyu continued to accumulate military achievements, and everything he did in the past few years was to get Xiao Yuande's words.
Just an opportunity!
Xiao Yuande sighed in his heart. Both of his sons were extremely outstanding. Xiao Jingyao was tolerant and steady, but a little loose. Xiao Jingyu is high-spirited and high-spirited, but he often acts excessively.
No matter who they are, if they are properly trained, they will become wise monarchs.
But there is only one throne, so you have to make a choice!
Xiao Yuande continued: "Yu'er, I'll give you this opportunity, but you have to know one thing!"
The sharp and majestic gaze instantly made Xiao Jingyu excited.
"Please give me some advice, Father!" Xiao Jingyu said.
"You are just a prince, and your noble status cannot compare with the laws of Da Chu."
Suddenly, Xiao Jingyu broke into cold sweat all over his body and his face turned pale, as if he was seriously ill.
"My son...I know my mistake!"
...
"Queen Scarlet Sakura?"
Yu Zhi fell into a strange state. He felt as if he was in a ball of starlight, and outside Yu Zhi's starlight, there was a red shadow trying to break through the starlight.
This crimson shadow is Fei Ying's weak remnant soul.
"Queen Fei Ying, you once said you would save me, why are you murdering me now?" Yu Zhi said, "If you night ghosts really have evil intentions, how can you say that I, the human race, are despicable?"
Feiying didn't answer, as if she acquiesced to this matter.
Yu Zhi was protected by Xinghui, and all he wanted to do was delay. Regardless of whether Feiying can break through Xinghui's protection and delay time, Li Haomiao and Yun Jin will not let it go.
"I really want to know why you want to invade the human world?"
Fei Ying still didn't answer, her figure kept hitting the stars, and the stars flickered and bloomed with silver.
"Hey, hey, can't we have a nice talk? She's quite good-looking, but it's a pity that she's mute?"
"It's really an uncivilized race. They only know how to fight and kill!"
"..."
After several consecutive impacts, the starlight shook, and the crimson figure of Feiying became more and more transparent, and would turn into nothingness at any time.
After nearly a cup of tea, Yu frowned, and the initial mockery turned into a warning.
"If you continue, you will really lose your mind."
This time, Feiying still didn't answer.
The shadow turned into a stream of light and struck the stars.
Buzz!
The blood light dispersed in all directions, and no more shadows could be seen condensing.
"It's just gone?" Yu Zhi murmured.
