Sang Jinde thought he was taking advantage of Qi Hongqing, but he didn't know that he was actually the one being taken advantage of.
Seeing him confidently confronting Xia Yihan, Qi Hongqing just curled his lips and smiled, silently, clearly looking like he was sitting back and watching the show.
Seeing Xia Yihan but smiling without saying a word, Sang Jinde looked at Qi Hongqing and saw that he had no reaction to what he had done, so he became even more bold, "Prince Han, the emperor came in person and you refused to acknowledge Rong Er.
Are you here to commit the crime of deceiving the king?"
Sang Jinde thought that this sentence was quite clever. It not only had a deterrent effect on Xia Yihan, but also naturally brought the topic to the emperor. In this way, he wanted to ignore it.
But he didn't notice that as soon as he said these words, Qi Hongqing, who had always been smiling, frowned, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes.
Xia Yihan just smiled faintly, with a fearless expression on his face: "Prime Minister Zuo, your crime is totally unnecessary. When will I not admit that Miss Sang is not in Prince Han's palace?"
"You..." Sang Jinde didn't expect him to admit it like this. Thinking about it carefully, from just now to now, he did not say that Sang Rong was not in Prince Han's palace.
But no matter what, it's fine if he admits it now.
He curled his lips and smiled, then glanced at Qi Hongqing and said triumphantly: "Since you have admitted it, then hurry up and make friends."
"But the problem now is..." Even at this time, Xia Yihan remained calm, "It's not that I don't want to make friends, but that Miss Sang can't get out at all."
"What do you mean?" The person who spoke this time was Qi Hongqing.
Xia Yihan paused and his eyes fell on Sang Jinde, his eyes full of hatred: "She was poisoned and is unconscious now."
"What?" Qi Hongqing stood up suddenly and said in shock: "You said Rong'er was poisoned, what happened?"
When Sang Jinde saw Qi Hongqing's reaction, he quickly said: "Yes, yes, how could such a good person be poisoned after entering your Prince Han's palace? Prince Han, you must give us an explanation."
"Explain?" Xia Yihan suddenly raised her lips and smiled so charmingly, "The person who wants to give an explanation should be the left prime minister, right?"
Sang Jinde's expression paused, and he looked sideways and saw Qi Hongqing looking at him suspiciously. He couldn't help but feel shocked, and asked repeatedly: "You...what do you mean by this?"
"It means..." Xia Yihan smiled meaningfully, then looked at Qi Hongqing and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, you care so much about Rong'er, you must have already known what the father, the Left Prime Minister, has done to this daughter.
In order to achieve his own goals, he would resort to any means and never care about Rong'er's thoughts. She would fight with fists and kicks when she rarely resisted, and would be whipped. Is such a father still a father? "
Xia Yihan was originally not prepared to touch Sang Jinde at this time, but he was really pushing his limits, so you can't blame him.
Of course Qi Hongqing knew about his evil deeds, and even went to question him specifically, but that was not the purpose of his coming today. He brushed his sleeves and said: "Other matters will be discussed later. Prince Han will still take me and
Prime Minister Zuo, please go and see Rong'er."
Qi Hongqing said this, so Xia Yihan naturally couldn't refuse anything, so he took the two of them to where Sang Rong lived.
In the room, Sang Rong was still sleeping. After entering, seeing her pale face and purple lips, Qi Hongqing frowned and said, "What kind of poison is it? Can it be cured?"
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty." Xia Yihan nodded and said, "Does Your Majesty still remember the doctor from Tianyin State who detoxified me? He will have a way to detoxify me, but it will take some time."
"That's good." Qi Hongqing squinted his eyes thoughtfully, as if he suddenly thought of something, "By the way, where is the princess?"
Hearing this, Qi Hongqing suddenly mentioned Hu Ling'er. Xia Yihan felt wary, but still said calmly: "Wan'er is feeling a little unwell and is resting in her room."
"That's true." Qi Hongqing nodded clearly, "The Queen Mother told me about the rumors this morning. She was really wronged. I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xia Yihan thanked her, but she was thinking about the sincerity of Qi Hongqing's words.
While he was deep in thought, Qi Hongqing sighed, his eyes looking at Sang Rong full of regret and entanglement, "Prince Han, Prime Minister Zuo, although I like Rong'er, it's because I like her that I respect her.
Her decision, since she has paid so much for Prince Han, and even thought of Prince Han when she was in danger, then while I let go, I am willing to fulfill her. Prince Han, from today on, she will be your concubine.
I'll wait until she gets better before we officially get married."
"Your Majesty!" Qi Hongqing just finished speaking when two voices sounded at the same time.
Xia Yihan was definitely no less shocked than Sang Jinde. He said with a cold face: "Your Majesty, that's not what you said that day."
Qi Hongqing turned his eyes and glanced at him, and said in a somewhat unkind tone: "Rong'er didn't look like that that day. Prince Han, if I don't tell you, it doesn't mean I don't know anything. Rong'er will suddenly be poisoned, even if it's true.
What the left prime minister did has absolutely nothing to do with you."
After a pause, Qi Hongqing smiled coldly and continued: "The Queen Mother is kind-hearted and trusts others easily, but I am not a fool. If some things are investigated further, I cannot guarantee what will be involved.
Also, after today's incident, the matter between Rong'er and you will spread. If you don't marry her, who else can she marry? You... think about it carefully. "
After saying that, Qi Hongqing looked at Sang Rong who was still lying quietly on the bed, and then said to the Zuo Xiang next to him: "Ai Qing, we have been harassing King Han for a long time, it's time to leave. Go back and prepare a dowry for Rong Er."
Bar."
"Your Majesty?" Sang Jinde finally came to his senses, but just as he called out his name, he saw Qi Hongqing turning around and walking out without looking back.
Turning back and giving Xia Yihan a fierce look, Sang Jinde quickly followed.
Xia Yihan stood in front of Sang Rong's bed, with a gloomy face and clenched fists.
It turned out that this was Qi Hongqing's purpose, and he actually gave Sangrong to him under such circumstances.
And it sounded from his tone that he still had doubts about the rumor incident, so if he didn't marry Sang Rong, he would definitely investigate further.
However, no matter what, he would never agree to this marriage because he had given Ling'er a guarantee.
Thinking of this, Xia Yihan quickly walked out of the door and ran towards Hu Ling'er's room without even looking at Sang Rong.
The moment the door closed, Sang Rong, who had closed his eyes, slowly opened his eyes. The corners of his purple lips were slightly raised, and he smiled strangely.
Night finally came. Many things happened on this day, but it was far from over.
When Xia Yihan rushed to Hu Ling'er's room, she had already woken up and was drinking medicine under Xiao Miao's care. Jian Xinan was not there.
Walking to Hu Ling'er's side, Xia Yihan asked with concern: "Ling'er, how are you?"
Hu Ling'er drank the medicine, covered her mouth slightly and said, "It's okay, don't worry."
"It's okay." Xia Yihan sat down by Hu Ling'er's bed and watched Xiaomiao pack up and go out. Xia Yihan thought for a while and said, "Do you know about Qi Hongqing's arrival?"
"I know." Hu Ling'er nodded. Xiaomiao had just told her when she arrived, "What is he here for?"
This matter would have to be known sooner or later, so Xia Yihan decided that it would be best to tell her right away.
Thinking of this, Xia Yihan sighed softly, "Ling'er, after you get better, let's leave this place of right and wrong completely and never care about things here again, okay?"
This was originally Hu Ling'er's wish, but when she heard Xia Yihan say this, she basically understood what happened.
Smiling indifferently, she said casually: "Did Qi Hongqing know about Sang Rong's poisoning and hold you responsible?"
Hu Ling'er guessed it so easily. Xia Yihan was not surprised at all, but she still felt extremely guilty in her heart.
Hanging his head, Xia Yihan said guiltily: "Ling'er, I don't want you to get hurt, so..."
"So you just want to take me and run away?" Hu Ling'er's tone was slightly reproachful.
Although this was her original intention, the development of things now is different from before. She is not a weak person, and neither is Xia Yihan.
After thinking about it, Hu Ling'er said: "I did say before that I wanted to leave, and I had to leave cleanly and without any worries. But now that Qi Hongqing has intervened, if we leave like this, the Right Prime Minister's Mansion and even the
The entire Han Palace will be implicated. This is not what we want."
"I know that." Xia Yihan nodded and was about to say something more when Hu Ling'er heard: "Since we can't escape, we can only face the difficulty."
Hearing what she said, Xia Yihan knew that she might have thought of something, "What do you want to do?"
Hu Ling'er blinked at Xia Yihan, and then slowly spit out three words: "Marry Sang Rong."
"Ling'er!" Xia Yihan almost jumped up when he heard this, and said with an unhappy face: "You know this is absolutely impossible."
In contrast to Xia Yihan's worry, Hu Ling'er had a smile on her face and curled her lips and said: "What are you worried about? It's not like I'm telling you to really marry her. Anyway, Sang Rong has not recovered from his poisoning and has to live here, then you
Just stabilize her for a while first, and then we can take this opportunity to find out what happened to Qi Hongqing."
What Hu Ling'er said was indeed a solution. After all, Qi Hongqing's attitude was gradually revealed by what happened today. As long as he took the opportunity to make it clear to him, he wouldn't be able to do anything to him.
However, even if he was pretending, he could not make Hu Ling'er suffer even the slightest injustice.
"Ling'er, I can't do this." Xia Yihan still refused, "Doing this will make you feel wronged."
"As long as your heart remains unchanged, I won't care about being aggrieved like this." Hu Ling'er smiled with an indifferent expression, but there was an obvious warning in her words.
In fact, she had other plans for letting Xia Yihan do this.
After all, Sang Rong had just been poisoned, and Qi Hongqing and Sang Jinde had arrived. It was too much of a coincidence.
She even suspected that Sang Rong and Qi Hongqing had planned it, otherwise how could they have arrived in such timely manner.
If this was the case, Sang Rong's wishful thinking was so accurate that she could even predict that Jian Xinan would rescue her. Or, in fact, Qi Hongqing also had the antidote, so no matter what the consequences,
She won't even die.
In the past, facing such an enemy would have aroused her interest and fighting spirit, but now, her energy is limited, and she really doesn't want to continue fighting with them like this.
So she simply took advantage of this opportunity to make a quick decision.
But Xia Yihan obviously didn't agree with this. Just when he was about to say something, there was a knock on the door from outside, and then Jian Xinan walked in, followed by Min Mo.
When she saw Min Mo, Hu Ling'er's eyes lit up, and she immediately smiled and said, "Min Mo, are your injuries healed?"
"It's already healed. Don't worry, Miss." Min Mo's voice was still cold, but the emotion hidden in it was self-evident.
In more than ten years, this injury was the longest he had rested, mainly because he had not fully recovered from his serious injury last time at Yin Qishan, and this time he was caught by the Blue Dragon Eagle, almost losing half of his life.
Moreover, Hu Ling'er repeatedly ordered him to have a good rest, otherwise he would not be allowed to follow him anymore, and even asked Xiaomiao to monitor him at all times.
That's why he nursed his injuries with peace of mind. Until today, after hearing the rumors outside, and later hearing Xiaomiao talking about Hu Ling'er's poisoning, he had already recovered to 70% to 80% and could no longer tolerate it.
But to completely silence Hu Linger, he could only ask Xiaomiao to call Jian Xinan and confirm that he was fine before he dared to come.
Sure enough, after hearing Min Mo's words, Hu Ling'er looked at Jian Xinan with suspicion and said, "Xinan, is Min Mo really okay?"
"Well, it's okay." Jian Xinan nodded, glanced at Min Mo, and thought that although this piece of wood didn't talk much, he knew Hu Ling'er very well.
After hearing what Jian Xinan said, Hu Ling'er completely believed it, but still warned: "Since Xinan has agreed, then I will lift your ban, but you should be more patient these days and don't use the inside."
Something like that, so as not to leave any sequelae."
Listening to her words, Min Mo felt warm in his heart. He suppressed the throbbing in his heart, lowered his head and said, "Min Mo understands."
