Gao Fuguo hurriedly took the note from Jingzhao Prefecture Yin Liu Jinghong and said softly: "Your Majesty, you see, His Highness the King of Han is indeed safe and sound. He is currently recuperating in the Jingzhao Prefecture's Yamen Office. I will come in to pay you respects later."
Emperor Yong'an finally felt at ease. The feeling of depression finally dissipated. He closed his eyes and said, "Explain it."
Not long after, a large group of princes and princesses entered the Nuan Pavilion and knelt in front of the bed and kowtowed to say hello. The one kneeling at the front was none other than the oldest King of Qin, Xie Huiming.
Emperor Yong'an narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at these young and lively faces carefully. He couldn't help but feel as if he was in another world. He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, it was clear and clear.
"Where's the boss? Why didn't you come here?" Emperor Yong'an asked slowly.
"Father, eldest brother," King Jian Xie Yuanjing kneeled forward and was about to speak, but was interrupted by King Qin Xie Huiming.
"Father, my eldest brother is feeling unwell. Feng Yu asked him to stay in bed for a day." Xie Huiming pressed his hand on the corner of Xie Yuanjing's clothes, making it difficult for him to step forward, and then spoke first.
"Oh, really?" Emperor Yong'an said softly, and looked around the kneeling people: "Who else wants to talk?" He glanced at the tenth prince Xie Langqing who was eager to try: "Old ten, what do you want to say? "
The tenth prince Xie Langqing suddenly raised his head, opened his mouth, and suddenly felt a sharp pain in his knees. He remembered how he looked when he was punished to kneel just now, and he suddenly trembled, quickly lowered his head, and said slowly: "My lord, my lord." have no idea."
"You don't know?" Emperor Yong'an raised his eyebrows and sneered noncommittally. He looked at the group of people kneeling with cold eyes, and the smile on his face became more serious: "What about you, you don't know?"
A group of normally dignified people, such as the Master, were now kneeling in an upright manner, as honest as quails, with their heads lowered, not daring to say another word.
Normally, if you say something wrong, you'll get scolded at most, but if you say something wrong now, you might lose your head.
Emperor Yong'an patted the quilt twice, making a popping sound.
"They said, they said that the eldest brother went to sleep with the flower girl in the church." A timid child's voice sounded. Although the voice was not loud, it was enough to shock people's hearts.
The shock made these people turn their heads and look at each other sideways.
The Ninth Prince Xie Keruo searched for the direction from which the sound came. When he found it, he gave a thumbs up in his heart.
She is indeed a chivalrous woman, chivalrous woman, disrespectful, really disrespectful.
Emperor Yong'an also looked in the direction of the sound, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Xiao Liu, who did they say that?"
At this time, the sixth princess had completely lost the timidity she had in the side hall. She was full of courage. She raised her petite face and pointed forward with her white and tender little hands: "That's right, fourth brother and, and sixth brother." Say it, say it, say that the eldest brother has slept with all the flower girls in Pingkangfang."
"Did you say that?" Emperor Yong'an glanced over, and the two of them were immediately frightened.
Xie Lixi and Xie Yuanjing were used to being arrogant in front of their younger brothers and sisters, but now they were as obedient as two cats, their heads drooped, their mouths full of bitterness, and they couldn't even utter a single word of defense.
Emperor Yong'an gasped in anger and pointed at the people below with trembling hands. After a while, his eyes widened, he grabbed the cup at hand, smashed it hard towards where Xie Lixi and Xie Yuanjing were kneeling.
The hot water splashed onto their clothes, and broken pieces of porcelain flew everywhere. The two people screamed in horror and kowtowed for mercy, but they did not dare to move even a little bit, allowing the cup of tea to stain the hem of their clothes. .
When other people saw this scene, they were trembling with fear and kowtowed together to beg for mercy.
Emperor Yong'an became even more furious. The veins on his forehead were pulsing. He hit the bed hard and shouted angrily: "Get out, get out, get out of here."
Everyone looked at each other, no one dared to move, no one dared to be the first to move.
Seeing that Emperor Yong'an was almost exhausted, Gao Fuguo hurriedly stepped forward, patting his back repeatedly to calm him down, while winking at Xie Huiming.
Xie Huiming sighed and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, please calm down. I will take my leave first. I will come back to pay your respects to Your Majesty another day."
"Get out, get out, get out!!" Emperor Yong'an cursed angrily.
Xie Huiming didn't speak. He slowly got up from the ground, bent over, and slowly walked backwards.
As soon as he moved, the remaining princes and princesses kowtowed one after another and crawled out of the Nuan Pavilion, fearing that they would retreat slower than others and cause some unnecessary disaster.
Emperor Yong'an watched helplessly as his group of sons and daughters retreated. The anger that rushed straight to his forehead seemed to dissipate suddenly. He grabbed the purple-gold copper Boshan stove on the small table and threw it out.
"Your Majesty, please don't burn your hands. There is still incense burning in the incense burner." Gao Fuguo groaned and quickly grabbed Emperor Yong'an's hand and examined it carefully.
"A bunch of bastards." He laughed angrily and looked up at Gao Fuguo: "Tell me, do they really don't know, or are they pretending not to know."
Gao Fuguo twisted a wet handkerchief and wiped Emperor Yong'an's hands. He paused slightly and said in a low voice: "Leng Shaoyin kept the news secret. He only told General Liu and invited the Jinwu Guards to pretend to patrol the city. Although the search for His Highness's whereabouts was a big commotion, no one knew what the Jinwu Guards were looking for. Even the Jinwu Guards themselves didn't know very well. I guess the princes and princesses really didn't know what was going on. "
Emperor Yong'an slowly calmed down, and his chest was no longer rising and falling violently. He knew that he was too emotionally excited just now.
But he couldn't help but be excited. It was his heart's content, and any injury would cut out his flesh.
His hand slowly rubbed the corners of the quilt, and he said calmly: "The fire in Qingxu Hall today was very strange. There should be nothing going on in the Gongyuan. You can send a message to Jiuchao and ask him to come back. Details Check this matter."
Gao Fuguo should claim so.
Emperor Yong'an thought for a moment, raised his eyes and said again: "The two immortal masters have achieved enlightenment, but my elixir has not been refined yet, so I still need to find another immortal master. Gao Fuguo, you should handle this matter personally. Don't do it with false hands." To people.”
Gao Fuguo opened his mouth, wanting to persuade him a few words, but after thinking about it, he swallowed his words.
A group of princes and princesses left the Hanxiang Palace as if running for their lives. The younger ones were led by their wet nurses back to their respective residences, while the older ones walked towards the palace gate in twos and threes.
Large swaths of sunset glowed on the horizon, and the setting sun was like blood, splashing wantonly across the sky.
The sky was still very bright, and the white clouds were blown away by the strong wind without a trace. The clean and empty sky was half blood-splendid and half blue and clear, looking lonely and silent.
The shadows of fragrant grass and trees cover the surrounding red walls, and occasionally there are clusters of flowers dotted among them, adding a bit of vitality to this silent and majestic palace.
Xie Lixi followed Xie Yuanjing at a short distance to a section of bluestone road blocked by the shade of trees. He glanced at him and said with a troubling smile: "Lao Liu, you see what I said is right. Whenever something happens, follow me." It’s definitely our fault that Big Brother got involved, and it’s definitely us who are scolded.”
Xie Yuanjing snorted nonchalantly, and instead of saying anything, he just asked: "Will you leave the palace for a drink later?"
Xie Liji looked at Xie Yuanjing deeply in surprise, and suddenly chuckled: "Okay, let's go."
Xie Yuanjing also raised his lips and smiled, raised his head and called out to Xie Huiming, who had already walked away: "Second brother, do you want to have a drink together?"
Xie Huiming turned his head and said expressionlessly: "I don't drink."
Xie Yuanjing, who was ruthlessly rejected, did not feel angry at all, just smiled and said to Xie Lishan: "Then, let's go?
Xie Lixi raised his eyebrows: "Let's go."
Xie Huiming stood under the palace wall, with the setting sun shining brightly around him, making his figure look incongruously lonely.
The boy next to him asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, shall we leave the palace?"
Xie Huiming was stunned for a moment and said: "Let's go to Changle Hall."
Changle Hall is located deep in the Daming Palace. The location is somewhat remote. The entire palace is not very big, but it is quiet and pleasant.
There are one main hall and two side halls in Changle Hall. Originally, the head of the first palace lived with two low-ranking concubines. However, because the imperial concubine was of high status and was in charge of the sixth palace, this palace only had one. There lived the imperial concubine and a concubine.
The Changle Hall is not as luxurious and beautiful as the neighboring palaces. Instead, it is simply decorated and has a martial atmosphere. Even the paintings hanging in the main hall are mostly of marching horses.
In the empty courtyard in front of the palace, there are very few flowers and plants. Instead, there are things like plum blossoms placed under the palace wall.
It seems to be extremely inconsistent with the Daming Palace.
The imperial concubine walked into the main hall of Changle Hall with long strides, leaned on the bed, waved her handkerchief and shouted: "Xinyu, I want to drink water."
A tall palace maid carried a porcelain pot and entered the palace with a smile on her face.
The imperial concubine quickly asked: "Did you soak it in well water?"
Xinyu smiled and said, "Yes."
The imperial concubine handed over a wide-mouthed bowl: "Hurry, I'm dying of thirst."
However, Xinyu did not pour the ice water from the porcelain pot first. Instead, she poured some hot water from the copper pot first, and then mixed some ice water with it. She persuaded: "Empress, Feng Yu said, you have to be more restrained. You can't do it." Use that much raw cold.”
The imperial concubine drank the warm water in the bowl in one gulp, glanced at Xinyu, and sneered: "I don't plan to have children anymore, why should I be so restrained?"
Xinyu's face suddenly sank, and she persuaded her earnestly: "Empress, your health is more important than giving birth to a child. Even if you don't plan for His Highness King Qin, you should plan for yourself. If your body collapses, you will not be worried. Or His Highness King Qin?"
The imperial concubine's expression was stagnant: "Will he be worried?" She suddenly shook her head and sneered: "He is just like his father, the same ruthless and unintentional, the same heartless, he would worry about me, hum, I never dreamed He worries about me!"
