Chapter 454: storm
Chapter 454 Storm
The servant girl shrank and knelt down: "The servant girl knows the wrong, please forgive the prince..."
Originally, a cup of tea was left for more than two quarters of an hour, but it was so cold that the prince didn’t touch it. However, she had just changed a hot cup on her side, so unfortunately, the prince couldn’t wait to take it up to find it hot...
When the Xiang Wang, who was on fire in his heart, glanced at the servant girl with anger, his eyes changed slightly.
The young maid was wearing a lotus-pink ratio armour. At this time, she bowed her head and knelt there, revealing a delicate white neck.
The king of Xiang felt itchy in his heart, and his tone was not consciously softened: "Raise your head and let this king take a look."
The maid raised her head hesitantly, revealing a clean and beautiful face.
The king of Xiang narrowed his eyes slightly.
Although is not really amazing, it is much stronger than the ones who dangle in front of him in the usual days-the tigress in the family usually controls this kind of things strictly, which is really annoying.
Looking at the timid maidservant, King Xiang was momentarily moved. When he was too late to act, he heard a sound of footsteps, and then a familiar voice rang through the bamboo curtain: "Master, come from the palace. Please enter the palace as soon as possible..."
The fresh thoughts that had just gotten up were interrupted, and the King Xiang frowned, and said impatiently: "What do you want this king to do in the palace at this time?"
Could it be that Ji Xiu’s matter has come to a conclusion, and now he is about to deal with his mother and concubine, so he is specially called into the palace to discuss?
Wang Wang thought, he got up from the couch and went out to see the housekeeper.
At this time, Fang saw the butler’s face was a little flustered: "It is the leader Han of Jishiwei who has come to spread the word, and he has brought many people... The prince should prepare quickly..."
Jishiwei?
Wang Xiang’s face changed slightly. When he was about to ask something, he could only hear something coming from the courtyard. He turned his head and looked out of the hall. He turned to see that it was Han Yan with a flying cloud knife on his waist and he was personally carrying the security guard. Coming here-this is his residence, how dare these people break in without being notified!
"The prince doesn't need to prepare anything." Han Yan strode up the stone steps, came to the outside of the hall, arched his hands, looked at King Xiang and said, "Your Majesty is in a hurry. Please also ask the prince to enter the palace immediately."
Faced with those eyes that didn't seem to have any emotions, King Xiang fell in his heart, and tentatively asked: "I wonder why the emperor is so anxious to see me?"
"The prince will know when he goes."
"..." King Xiang secretly clenched his fingers in his sleeve.
Qishiwei is nothing but a dog in front of the emperor, who dares to be so rude to him when he speaks.
And the more so, the more he feels that things are not going well.
The king of Xiang turned his head and glanced at the butler beside him: "This king will go and return--"
Looking at this look in his eyes, the butler lowered his head and said "yes" in a respectful voice.
Han Yan turned sideways slightly and gave way to King Xiang.
King Xiang went down the stone steps, stopped and looked back at Han Yan who was still standing outside the hall: "Why, doesn't Commander Han follow this king?"
"Han has another official business, and has ordered his men to lead the way for the prince."
Hearing this, there was coldness seeping from the back of Queen Xiang, but at this time he could only go with Jishiwei.
As soon as King Xiang got on the front foot of the carriage and left, Han Yan on the back foot immediately ordered people to encircle the King Xiang’s mansion and began a large-scale search.
Things happened too suddenly, and the Xiang Prince's Mansion was plunged into a panic and nervous atmosphere.
Under the close guard of the security guards, this gorgeous mansion seemed to be transformed into an unbreakable cage in an instant.
At the back door of the palace, there are also four guards.
"Follow me, here!"
"Hurry up……"
"I saw it, it must be here!"
The sound of chasing children came, and several guards followed the voices and looked over.
The young boy knew nothing about the storm that was shrouding the palace. The headed boy was about ten years old, holding a slingshot in his hand, and a group of small attendants behind him.
"Children, go farther." Seeing these children approaching, a security guard warned with a long knife around his waist.
Although the child is young, he has a keen perception of danger, and probably because he was doing mischievous things, the boys who were still majestic and brought a group of younger brothers were immediately scared and ran away.
Even though the other children didn’t know what had happened, they didn’t prevent them from hurriedly following and ran away.
"It's a pigeon."
A security guard found an injured white dove under a corner not far away—it should have been injured by those children with a slingshot.
"No...this seems to be a homing pigeon." The guard raised the pigeon, and a bamboo tube was exposed under the feathers between the legs and abdomen of the unconscious white pigeon.
Jishiwei headed by 's eyes moved: "Take things off!"
At this time, the group of children had run away, cheering and frolicking and disappeared into the busy city.
The King Xiang got out of the carriage outside the Forbidden Palace and headed all the way to the Imperial Study Room.
He is undoubtedly very nervous at this time.
But there is always a voice in my heart telling him-I have always acted cautiously, and it is impossible to be caught by others.
At this time, the emperor summoned him into the palace, perhaps because he had previously advocated against the queen mother. His emperor brother has always been suspicious, and perhaps he still didn’t believe his words completely...
After a while, whether it's temptation or harsh accusation, he only needs to adopt the same posture to deal with the past carefully-as long as he can escape from the capital and return to Dianzhou safely, nothing else is important.
At the time when the emperor was far away from the mountain, what he wanted to do would not be the emperor's control.
And after that, he no longer needs to look on the nose of others and act on the faces of others.
He made up his mind to survive this temptation anyway, but at this time he didn't know that what was waiting for him was not the so-called temptation at all.
"The courtier sees the emperor brother."
In the imperial study room, King Xiang bowed and saluted.
The sky was always gloomy, the palace door behind him was slowly closed, and the line of sight in the imperial study room was still cloudy.
Two inner monitors stood under the imperial steps with their hands hanging down, without making a sound. The huge hall seemed to be static, revealing unspeakable depression and mystery.
"……"
It’s been a long time since I heard the voice of a response after the Long case. Wang Xiang raised his head slightly and asked: "...Emperor brother, I don’t know how to investigate and repair the matter. Is the progress going well?"
"smoothly--"
Qingming Emperor’s cool voice sounded: “If I deliberately cover up for you, how can this matter be unsuccessful.”
"Yes, the courtier knows that this matter is all dependent on the emperor's brother protecting the courtier..." Wang Xiang was extremely ashamed, and said: "The emperor's brother, don't worry, this time the courtier knows he is wrong. Advocate-and although this matter is over, the faults of the ministers should not be easily erased, and I hope that the emperor will not be soft-hearted and just condemn and punish them, so that the ministers can really learn a lesson."
He said these words as a sincere confession, even if there are some punishments, once he leaves the capital, if he wants to follow it, he will follow it, and he doesn't want to follow it-it will just be ignored.
