Seeing Sang Jinde standing there uneasily, Qi Hongqing seemed to be joking: "Why, don't you welcome me, my dear?"
When Sang Jinde heard this, he felt that he had lost his composure and said quickly: "I dare not, Your Majesty, please come in."
Welcoming Qi Hongqing into the main hall, Sang Jinde waited on him carefully, but after taking a few sips of tea, the thing that scared him the most came.
Qi Hongqing looked at the door as if unintentionally, put down his teacup and said, "I've been here for so long, why don't I see Rong'er?"
"Um..." Sang Jinde lowered his head and said a little embarrassedly: "Back to the emperor, Rong'er didn't know that the emperor would be coming today, so he went out."
"Oh, it's almost dark, and her girl's house is still outside?" Qi Hongqing's tone was calm, but there was a hint of dissatisfaction hidden in it.
Hearing this, Sang Jinde felt hairy all over his body, his feet were trembling, and he kept saying: "What the emperor said is absolutely true. I am a bad father. I will definitely teach her well in the future."
"Teaching?" Qi Hongqing raised his eyes slightly and glanced sideways at him. He slightly raised the corner of his mouth and smiled with an unknown meaning: "Then tell me, Aiqing, how are you going to teach her?"
A chill hit Sang Jinde following Qi Hongqing's words, causing his complexion to change and his body to tremble uncontrollably.
Could it be that the emperor already knows about the beatings and scoldings he usually gives to Sangrong?
But it shouldn't be. It's been so many years. No matter how I beat her, she would never cry or cry out in pain, let alone tell others.
Of course, except for that Xia Yihan.
Seeing that Sang Jinde was too nervous to speak, Qi Hongqing slowly tightened his hands in his sleeves and then let them go, with the smile on his face still soft: "Hahaha, my dear, I was just casually saying
Just asking, why are you so nervous?"
"I'm scared." Sang Jinde lowered his head. Apart from these three words, he didn't know what to say.
"Haha..." Qi Hongqing smiled softly, but said nothing again. He just picked up the tea and sipped it lightly.
Sang Jinde glanced at him guiltily, only to see him drinking tea leisurely with no unpleasant expression on his face. Although he was still unsure, he was a little more relaxed than before.
It was only then that he realized that his palms were sweaty. In order to cover up his discomfort, he also picked up the tea cup.
But just when he was about to drink, Qi Hongqing's voice sounded faintly again: "I heard that Aiqing went to Prince Han's Mansion a few days ago."
"Ahem..." After a violent cough, Sang Jinde choked on the tea he just drank. His hands shook in fear and the tea spilled out.
Seeing his intense reaction, Qi Hongqing twitched his lips with a sarcastic smile, and his voice became colder: "Aiqing, why did you react like this? Could it be that you went to Prince Han's Mansion to do something sorry for me?"
"Your Majesty, I don't dare!" After all, Sang Jinde is still a man who has experienced hundreds of battles. Although he was worried and nervous before, at this time, he calmed down.
He stood up and knelt down, then raised his head and said: "Your Majesty, I did go to see King Han, and this matter does have something to do with the Emperor, but it is definitely not something that I am sorry for. Your sincerity to the Emperor is beyond compare.
Appreciated.”
Seeing him kneeling on the ground, Qi Hongqing quickly stood up and helped him up. He said with a stunned look on his face: "Ai Qing, what are you doing? Get up and talk!"
Sang Jinde stood up as instructed. When Qi Hongqing rushed back to his position, he continued: "Your Majesty, that day I went to Prince Han's Mansion to find Prince Han because of Rong'er's matter."
"Oh, keep talking." Qi Hongqing raised his eyebrows, waiting for his next words.
Taking a deep breath, Sang Jinde decided to give it a try.
It seems that the emperor's purpose of coming today is not for Sangrong, but also to question himself.
Therefore, he could only honestly explain the situation at that time to have a chance of survival.
It's just that he didn't know how much the emperor knew about this matter. The most important thing was that Sang Rong lived in Prince Han's palace.
No matter what, he still wanted to test it out first.
Thinking of this, Sang Jinde lowered his head and said: "Your Majesty, I can see your thoughts about Rong'er, but I also know that you actually understand where Rong'er's thoughts are. That Sun Palace
At the banquet, that girl Rong'er didn't know what was good or bad, and almost refuted your kindness. So on the second day, I went to Prince Han's Mansion to ask what Prince Han meant to Rong'er."
Having said this, Sang Jinde paused, then raised his head and glanced at Qi Hongqing.
But I saw him leaning on the back of the chair, playing with the cup in his hands with both hands, his eyes always falling on the cup, and then asked casually: "Then did you ask the reason?"
"Prince Han...he said..." Sang Jinde glanced at Qi Hongqing again. He who spoke fluently just now actually started to stutter.
Qi Hongqing smiled lightly and said: "Say it, no matter what you say, I will not punish you."
This was what Sang Jinde was waiting for, and he quickly said: "King Han said that I am not qualified to take care of his affairs. And for Sang Rong, I am not a competent father, so I am not qualified to take care of her.
After that...he drove me out of the palace."
This was an extremely disgraceful thing, but in front of Qi Hongqing, Sang Jinde didn't have the courage to hide it.
"This Prince Han..." After listening, Qi Hongqing sighed helplessly, then shook his head and said: "If he really likes Rong'er, just tell me, and I will naturally not take away what he loves.
After all, he is my benefactor whom I respect as an elder brother."
When Sang Jinde heard Qi Hongqing's words, his eyes widened in shock, and he looked at him in astonishment and said: "Your Majesty... you... what do you mean?"
"What I mean is that I will give him whatever he wants, even if it is..." At this point, Qi Hongqing smiled, and then continued to utter two words: "Throne."
"Your Majesty!" Sang Jinde almost exclaimed, with a look of horror on his face: "Your Majesty, how can you say such things? No matter how much favor Prince Han has to you, after all, he is just a prince with a foreign surname. This
The country belongs to Qi, and the world belongs to your Qi family."
Qi Hongqing's words really scared the battle-hardened Sang Jinde.
You know, he conquered almost half of the Qi Xia Kingdom. He had never thought about it. The emperor actually said such words right after.
"Haha, the Qi family's world..." Qi Hongqing's smile was filled with bitterness and self-deprecation.
If his father was still alive, this throne would definitely not be his turn.
When his father was seriously ill and dying, he was the only one who was called in. He still can't forget what happened that day.
At that time, his father, who was almost confused, told him something, asking him to get along well with Xia Yihan, because they were real brothers.
In fact, he knew the truth of the matter long ago, but in front of his father, he still pretended to be surprised.
His father also said that he had wronged Xia Yihan and his mother all his life, so after his death, he hoped to compensate him and hope that he could understand his actions.
At that time, he didn't know what the so-called compensation was, but he still nodded in agreement.
But what his father said next made him completely collapse.
He actually said that he wanted to restore Xia Yihan's royal status and pass the throne to him, because he felt that Xia Yihan was more suitable for this position than himself.
He was shocked and stunned...
You must know that he is the prince. For this position, he even narrowly escaped death, but in the end, he was making wedding clothes for others?
Could it be that Xia Yihan was so single-minded and tried her best to help her bring down the prince, just for this moment?
He wanted to ask his father why he made such a decision and why he treated him like this.
But before he could speak, his father asked him to leave, and then wanted to send his ministers in to deliver the imperial edict.
At that time, he was anxious and angry, his mind went blank, and he had no idea what he was thinking or doing. When he realized what he was doing, he found that he was covering his father's head with a pillow, and he was already motionless.
Lying there.
The father is dead, he killed him with his own hands!
After realizing this, he was at a loss what to do and was running around in a panic.
He never dreamed that he would embark on the road of murdering the emperor and killing his father. He did not even dare to look at his father who was still waiting to die.
But after a moment, he seemed to have thought of something, and climbed onto the dragon bed like crazy, and then found the edict behind where his father was sleeping.
He opened it with trembling hands and saw that the content inside was exactly what his father said. He wanted to restore Xia Yihan's identity and then pass the throne to him, but he became King Hongyi.
He is the prince, the first heir to the throne, but now he has become a prince.
And Xia Yihan, who was nothing, suddenly became the emperor of Qi Xia Kingdom.
The 3000 words will be sent first. Isn’t it too dull these days? There is no sound at all. Yao’er said sadly, since you want to watch torture, it will come soon.
