"Brother Junze, why did you come here just now?" Murong Ling felt extremely aggrieved and stepped forward to hug Xiao Junze.
Xiao Junze dodged almost subconsciously, and then he was stunned for a moment.
Murong Ling's heart also trembled, and she looked at Xiao Junze nervously. "Brother Junze..."
"I have wronged you by letting you live in Xinyuan during this period." Xiao Junze took Murong Ling's hand and led her into the inner hall. "The situation in Fengtian is serious now. Many things need to be done by me personally. You need to take care of yourself.
Just tell Afu whatever you want."
Ah Fu was the eunuch beside Xiao Junze, who followed Empress Changsun in the early years.
Now Xiao Junze has inherited the throne and has been by Xiao Junze's side.
"Brother Junze..." Murong Ling nervously pulled Xiao Junze's arm. "Brother Junze, today is our wedding, won't you stay?"
Xiao Junze glanced at Murong Ling and retracted his arm without leaving a trace. "Fengtian is in trouble internally and externally. I have kept everything simple during the title of concubine and the queen, and I have not followed the etiquette. Can Ling'er understand me?"
Murong Ling's heart sank instantly. Without the canonization ceremony, her concubine sounded like a joke.
"Brother Junze...if you don't follow etiquette and tell the world, then Ling'er..." Murong Ling complained subconsciously. She wanted everyone in the world to know that she is Xiao Junze's concubine now, and she is more likely to be the queen in the future, but
What's the point of keeping everything simple like this?
"Ling'er cares about these red tapes?" Xiao Junze glanced at Murong Ling and felt something inexplicable in his heart.
"Brother Junze, Ling'er doesn't care about this, but my brother and father were threatened by Xiao Chengen and deceived into going to the south of the Yangtze River. Now my uncles and uncles are still in Kyoto. They all hope that Ling'er can accompany your majesty to atone for the Murong family's sins, so that they can
Your Majesty, please forgive them." Murong Ling spoke nervously, taking advantage of today's canonization to raise conditions with Xiao Junze. "Brother Junze, my aunt sent someone to deliver a message a few days ago, saying that my uncle and several uncles from his mother's clan were imprisoned.
For Ling'er's sake, can you let them go?"
Xiao Junze's face instantly darkened.
Konoe investigates Prince Yu's hidden secrets in Kyoto. Whenever they are caught, it shows that they are extremely arrogant and the evidence is conclusive.
"Ling'er, they are treasonous!"
In the past, he felt that Murong Ling was pure-tempered, but now... he felt a little confused.
Qian'er stood aside and glanced at Xiao Junze, knowing that today was the best time.
Before Xiao Junze came, Qian'er deliberately informed Murong Ling of the tragic situation of the Murong family, and wanted Murong Ling to intercede for the Murong family.
At the cusp of this storm, the more unreasonable Murong Ling was, the more annoyed Xiao Junze was.
"Brother Junze, but they are all Ling'er's elders. Ling'er promises that if you let them go this time, they will not dare to do it again." Murong Ling shook Xiao Junze's arm coquettishly.
"I can only promise not to take their lives, but leaving the Shenxing Division is absolutely impossible." Xiao Junze stood up, feeling a little irritable for no reason.
"Brother Junze, my uncle is too weak to stay in the Shenxing Division. What's the difference between that and killing him?" Murong Ling cried and knelt on the ground. "Brother Junze, please."
"Ling'er!" He thought he would be quieter when he came to Murong Ling's place, but he didn't expect to be so upset.
It was a serious crime for the Murong family to rebel. He had been extra merciful for Murong Ling's sake, but Murong Ling still refused to forgive him.
I don’t know the general situation very well on weekdays…
Rubbing his eyebrows, Xiao Junze took a deep breath and realized that his tone when speaking to Murong Ling was a bit harsh.
In any case, it was Murong Ling who saved him. Without Murong Ling, he would not be alive today.
"Ling'er, there are many things that I have no intention of doing. The Murong family rebelled. If I condone it, the ministers will be furious." He patiently explained to Murong Ling, hoping that she could understand the general outline.
"Brother Junze, what you promised me before...has everything changed now? Ling'er has nothing but you now. Ling'er has no family, only brother Junze." Murong Ling's eyes turned red instantly, feeling aggrieved.
He started crying. "Brother Junze, when Ling'er went to rescue you despite family opposition, he believed that brother Junze would not let Ling'er down."
Xiao Junze lowered his eyes and glanced at Murong Ling, but did not agree.
"I will give you other compensation, and have a good rest." He promised Chaoyang that he would get rid of all the Murong family informants. Even if he did not kill them, they would never be allowed to leave the Shenxing Division openly.
"Brother Junze!" Murong Ling realized that she was pushing too hard, and she panicked and wanted to keep Xiao Junze. "Brother Junze, tonight..."
"There are still important things to deal with, let's talk about it later." After saying that, Xiao Junze turned and left.
Qian'er glanced at Murong Ling who was kneeling on the ground and gloated.
Xiao Junze dismissed the beautiful girl. How could he endure loneliness when he was upright and young?
Nowadays, the maids in the palace are coming one after another, hoping to be favored by Xiao Junze and fly to the branches.
This is Qian'er's best chance to break away from Murong Ling.
…
After walking out of Muyang Palace, Xiao Junze rubbed his eyebrows a little irritably.
Murong Ling is too willful and does not understand the general situation.
"Your Majesty, are you going to Kunning Palace?" the eunuch Ah Fu asked in a low voice.
"How is the repair of Cuizhu Garden?" Xiao Junze was even less willing to see Shen Yunrou than Murong Ling.
Fortunately, Shen Yunrou knows the general situation very well, knows what she wants, and knows what her position is.
Now, he just wants to find a quiet place.
"It says it won't be finished until tomorrow."
Xiao Junze walked straight to Qingshan Pavilion.
"Bang!" Suddenly, a palace maid ran over here, kneeling on the ground and bumping into the holy driver.
"You are so courageous. You rush into the holy driver recklessly. What crime should you be punished for?" The eunuch was a little angry.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, please save this slave. Please save this slave." Qian'er ran out in panic and saw that no one was kneeling in front of Xiao Junze.
"Are you the maid next to Ling'er?" Xiao Junze remembered Qian'er.
Qian'er's palms trembled, her cheeks were swollen and she nodded.
"But what happened to Ling'er?"
Qian'er cried and shook her head, kneeling on the ground. "Your Majesty, please save Qian'er. It's not that something happened to the lady, it's the lady who wants to beat Qian'er to death."
Xiao Junze's face was extremely ugly. "How brave!"
You dare to come to him and complain about anything.
"Your Majesty! Qian'er is really helpless. If this continues, Qian'er will be beaten to death sooner or later." Qian'er kowtowed to the ground with a bang, lifted up her sleeves, and saw bruises all over them. "Qian'er knows.
As a slave, you cannot speak ill of your master, let alone sue your master for glory, but if Qian'er doesn't say anything, she will really be beaten to death."
"Young lady is not... the one who fell in love with you at the Summer Resort. Please tell me for your Majesty's advice!" Qian'er panicked and knelt on the ground, kowtowing, her forehead already bruised and bleeding.
Xiao Junze's hands clenched instantly, and his voice was filled with a strong chill. "You are so brave. Do you know what it is to deceive the emperor?"
"Qian'er wouldn't dare to do this even if she had the courage to do so. Qian'er can't bear His Majesty to be deceived again. When Your Majesty was deposed as Crown Prince due to immorality, it was planned in advance by the Murong family and the young lady because His Majesty trusted the young lady too much."
Qian'er chose to speak out now because Xiao Junze already had a problem with Murong Ling because of the affairs of the Murong family.
Only in this way can he deliver a fatal blow, causing Murong Ling to fall to the bottom and never be able to get back up.
"Your Majesty..." Ah Fu called in a low voice, making the decision for Xiao Junze. "Why don't we take this maid to Yeyouting for questioning?"
"Your Majesty, Qian'er has evidence..." Since she could come up with the idea of letting Murong Ling impersonate her back then, she would definitely have enough leverage to win over her in the future.
Murong Ling was originally just a stepping stone for her to climb up.
Seeing that the guards approaching were about to pull Qian'er away, Xiao Junze raised his hand to stop him, his voice filled with a strong chill. "Say!"
