Zhu Yi's aura remained unchanged, but his eyes hidden under the mask suddenly became sharp.
He did not expect that His Highness Chang Ding would dare to say this.
The reason why he appeared was of course on the emperor's order. His Highness Chang Ding said this. Doesn't he look down on the emperor too much?
Although these words were just a threat to him, in fact, they were dissatisfaction with the emperor!
Did His Highness Chang Ding just hate him and speak out without hesitation, or did he really dare to disobey the emperor?
Is she really cool or just stupid? Or is it just pretending?
No matter which way it is, it is not a smart move in the Zichen Palace and in front of the emperor.
The Emperor has a different view in his mind because of His Highness Chang Ding's performance in the Wuge. Didn't she hit the muzzle of the gun herself? .
However, Zhu Yi was too lazy to think deeply. After what happened with Yu Youtang, he would not go against the emperor's wishes at the moment.
Since the emperor asked him to stop His Highness Chang Ding to ask about sword moves, he should just do this well.
He also wanted to know what kind of sword move Huo Shen could never forget.
Unfortunately, he won't get the chance to see it.
Zheng Ji glanced at him coldly, clearly showing the disgust in his heart. ——Even though she knew that Zhu Yi was only following his father's orders.
From the moment she stepped into the Zichen Palace, she had no intention of pretending to be well-behaved and docile in front of Emperor Yongning.
She had just experienced a life-and-death massacre, how could she not have changed?
It is normal to have a drastic change in temperament, to be covered with thorns, to be wary and dissatisfied with everyone.
She didn't mind letting her father know her hatred and murderous intention towards Zhu Yi at all.
As for the suspicion and fear that her father would have towards her, is this still the case?
Soon, the father will no longer care about her.
After saying these cruel words, she said to Emperor Yongning: "Father, unless it is a matter of life or death, I cannot use that sword technique. If Vice Admiral Zhu really wants to know..."
She turned to Zhu Yi, her eyes like daggers: "That can drive me to death."
"Your Highness, I don't dare." Zhu Yi lowered his head and replied, not wanting to face her anger.
It is obviously not cost-effective to face off against a His Highness who is not very rational at the moment.
Zheng Ji glanced at him lightly and said, "Get out!"
Zhu Yi acted as if he hadn't heard anything and still stood in front of her. He only obeyed orders from the emperor.
Emperor Yongning squinted his eyes, wondering what he was thinking. After a while, he said, "Zhu Yi, please step back."
"Yes!" Zhu Yi responded, then disappeared.
Zheng Ji looked straight at the place where he disappeared, his eyes dark and unclear.
The time she promised Wei Yan was after the martial arts competition was over, so it was almost...
Xue Gong watched Zheng Ji leave, stepped forward, and asked puzzledly: "Your Majesty, I don't understand. Please give me an answer. Are you...are you not angry with His Highness?"
As the saying goes, even when beating a dog, it depends on the owner. His Highness Chang Ding treated Zhu Yi like this, which was hurting the emperor's face. How could the emperor not be angry?
Emperor Yongning glanced at him and said, "Xue Gong, they say that people become better with age, why can't you?"
"Your Majesty, this slave is stupid, this slave is stupid." Xue Gong said with an apologetic smile, "Aren't you worried that you will do something wrong..."
At this moment, he really couldn't tell the emperor's mood, and he was not sure how to treat His Highness Changding next.
"Xue Gong, you might as well see it clearly, Chang Ding." Emperor Yongning said lightly, not caring whether Xue Gong understood.
Chang Ding knew that he wanted to beat Zhu Yi during this period. She dared to do this to Zhu Yi, but she was acting according to his wishes.
Why is he angry?
Chang Ding can control his temper, know sword moves, and even threaten Zhu Yi. These are no big deal.
In fact, the greater Chang Ding's ability, the greater the training for the prince, which he was quite happy to see.
But...he can occasionally indulge in a long-term relationship, but he will not allow her to really go against his will.
I hope Chang Ding is smart enough
Ming, you can understand this.
"Zhu Yi, you and Huo Shen will investigate Xie Yi and Fan Li one by one, down to the smallest detail!"
He really wanted to know why the person Chang Ding carefully selected had to kill her.
~~~
Zheng Ji walked very slowly from Zichen Palace to Fuqing Palace.
What she said to Zhu Yisuo was more than just words. At that moment, her heart was indeed full of killing intent.
However, she suppressed these thoughts when she thought of her mother and concubine and Feng Ju.
At this moment, her whole body was filled with deep tiredness and apathy, which had to be dispersed before she could go see her mother-in-law.
Otherwise, the mother-in-law will be worried.
However, she did not expect to see Queen Xue on the road.
She met Queen Xue at Guanyuxuan near Fuqing Palace. At that time, Queen Xue was grabbing a handful of fish bait and teasing the koi in the pond with great interest.
All kinds of koi carp splashed in the turquoise water, intertwined with gold, green, orange and silver, which was indescribably beautiful, and the gurgling sounds of the fish sounded full of life.
This scene makes people feel comfortable just looking at it.
So Zheng Ji smiled, stepped forward and saluted, saying, "I have seen the Queen in Chang Ding, and I would like to pay my respects to the Queen."
Empress Xue still held the bait in her hand. She looked at Zheng Ji and asked with a smile: "Shouldn't Chang Ding call me 'Queen Mother'?" "
"I don't dare," Zheng Ji replied, with a slight smile on his face.
What qualifications does Queen Xue have to call her mother?
Even when she was stupid, she didn't want to be called that. Taking advantage of her father's favor, she deliberately acted a little bit and called her "Queen's Empress" like everyone else.
The father had nothing to do with her, so he acquiesced.
Now, Queen Xue said this... I'm afraid it was just a random excuse.
Sure enough, Queen Xue didn't say anything more about this. She smiled and said, "Chang Ding, why is it such a coincidence?"
"Yes, what a coincidence." Zheng Ji replied, also thinking it was a coincidence.
Empress Xue lived in seclusion in Kunning Palace, and she had not seen him more than a few times in the past year.
Why did they happen to bump into each other right now?
Queen Xue looked dignified. When she looked at Zheng Ji, there was a kind of elder kindness in her eyes: "I heard that you were almost injured in the martial arts arena? Are you okay?"
"Thank you, Queen, for your concern. Thanks to my father, Hongfu, everything will go well for Chang Ding." Zheng Ji replied, in his eyes... there was naturally no gratitude or admiration for his elders.
Before Queen Xue could smile and speak, she said directly: "I won't disturb the queen's pleasure in watching fish. I have something else to do in Chang Ding, so I'll take my leave first."
Queen Xue's appearance here was of course directed at her, and she must have had a deeper meaning, but she was too lazy to accompany her.
Seeing Zheng Ji leaving so neatly, Queen Xue paused in her smile and immediately realized that she had used the wrong method.
At the moment, Chang Ding is obviously unwilling to take advantage of the situation.
In this case, she should get straight to the point.
So, she waved her hand, signaling Aunt Fu Fen and others behind her to step back, and then said: "Chang Ding, I have something I want to say. I wonder if you are willing to listen?"
Zheng Ji nonchalantly bent his body and said, "Please give me some advice from the Queen."
What did Queen Xue say to her? Come to think of it, it wouldn't be a good word.
"Second update!"
