Following the direction of Xie Wu's finger, everyone's eyes fell on the wound with blood stains still remaining.
The wound was so deep that it even penetrated the entire neck of the hare. It looked like he had been killed with an arrow!
But even if this is the case, this does not prove that these prey are hunted by Lu Zhan!
Sure enough, as soon as this thought flashed in Princess Xiao's mind, Prince Qi's voice of wanting to be beaten immediately rang out, "I didn't see anything special about this wound! Miss Xie, shouldn't you?
It’s going to be nonsense!”
Xiao Muqing frowned. She glanced at King Qi with disgust, and then said to Xie Wu worriedly, "Ah Wu, you might as well say it clearly!"
Xie Wu smiled at Xiao Muqing, then turned to look at King Qi and said softly, "Your Majesty, there is really nothing special about the wounds, but haven't you noticed that the wounds of these prey are in the same place! And they were all killed with one arrow.
!”
King Qi was stunned for a moment, then he quickly squatted down and picked up the prey on the ground twice.
Sure enough, Xie Wu was not lying. Whether it was a pheasant or a fox, the wound was on the neck, and they were all killed with one arrow!
Looking at the bloody evidence, King Qi felt a little confused. He pulled twice more in disbelief, but the result was still the same!
"My lord, why don't you call a few people and you will examine the wounds one by one. In this way, Lu Zhan will not be able to fish in troubled waters and make up the numbers! After all, you and Lu Zhan are not short of a few prey, maybe they can fight each other.
We found a few wounds with different ones! What do you want to say?" Seeing that King Qi still looked unwilling to give up, Xiao Mubei hurriedly held back his smile and said to him.
Being exposed by Xiao Mubei, King Qi's face turned red. He stood up awkwardly, but he still glanced at the little eunuch next to him from the corner of his eye.
After receiving the instructions from King Qi, several young eunuchs did not dare to delay, and immediately came over to count the prey again.
Seeing King Qi's secret rubbing action, Xiao Mubei couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips. He raised his eyebrows at King Qi, and then smiled and said to him, "Your Majesty, why don't you check my pile?"
,What if I didn’t notice and took two more pheasants from Lu Er?”
King Qi frowned and glared at Xiao Mubei displeasedly, but he also knew that he was a free-spirited person, and he was a junior, so it would really be out of character to argue with him over words.
Thinking of this, King Qi snorted coldly, and then simply turned his face away.
Seeing that King Qi ignored him, Xiao Mubei clicked his tongue twice, then turned away and stopped talking.
The other party is a prince no matter what, and it’s okay for him to occasionally offend with his words. If he keeps clinging to Prince Qi, he will be shameless!
However, although Xiao Mubei closed his mouth, King Qi watched the prey being snatched away one after another, until the last fox was turned over by the little eunuch, and his heart finally went cold...
Seeing Prince Qi's face turn green, paper, and gray at first, the colorful patterns made Prince Xiao feel excited again, "My lord, don't be discouraged! Maybe these little eunuchs are careless and want to do something wrong."
No, ask them to check it carefully again!"
"Xiao Mubei! Do you think I don't dare to do anything to you!" King Qi was already feeling ashamed, angry and uncomfortable, but when he heard Xiao Mubei's strange words, he couldn't help but explode.
Anyway, he has lost all the shame he deserves!
If I had known...
If he had known earlier, he would not have let Lu Zhan go!
Thinking of this, King Qi was so regretful that his intestines turned green! Why did he jump out to argue with Lu Zhan just now? So what if he just let him win!
"Mu Bei, don't talk nonsense. Please apologize to my third uncle." Just as King Qi was regretting, a gentle voice suddenly sounded.
"Your Majesty, it was Wei Chen who said the wrong thing! Wei Chen deserves to die. Please don't argue with me." Xiao Mubei accepted Lu Zhan's words obediently. He sincerely apologized to King Qi.
At the end, I didn’t forget to bow to him.
Seeing the two men singing along, King Qi's breath was choked in his heart. He couldn't spit it out or swallow it, and his face turned blue and purple from holding it in.
At this time, Eunuch Liu bowed down and said something, "Second Master Lu, Your Majesty is still waiting for your servant's reply. Do you think the rabbit in your hand can be given to your servant to take to Your Majesty?"
"
"Of course you can, then I'll bother Eunuch Liu." Lu Zhan smiled and handed over the rabbit in his hand.
Eunuch Liu took it with both hands, and before leaving, he did not forget to salute King Qi.
Seeing Eunuch Liu holding the rabbit and leaving, King Qi's face turned red from suppressing his emotions. He wished he could faint on the spot!
what to do?
What should he do now?
"Third uncle, grandpa and the two empresses are still waiting for us." But Lu Zhan seemed not to notice the ugly expression on King Qi's face. He smiled and raised his eyebrows at King Qi.
King Qi's chest felt stagnant again.
He looked at Lu Zhan, who was as leisurely as a wandering cloud and wild crane, and the suffocation in his chest surged up until it blocked his throat.
At this moment, he suddenly felt blessed - no one would deliberately shoot with his neck open while hunting. Did Lu Zhan set a trap early in the morning and wait for him to get in?
"Third uncle?" Seeing that King Qi looked like he was shocked and speechless after thinking of something, Lu Zhan couldn't help but smile and called him again.
"Lu Zhan, tell me, did you deliberately frame me and make me look embarrassed?" King Qi glared fiercely at Lu Zhan, gritted his teeth and asked Lu Zhan in a low voice.
Lu Zhan smiled lightly, raised his eyebrows at King Qi, and said, "Third uncle, what did you say?"
"Yes! My lord, what are you talking about? Why don't you speak louder and let me hear it too!" Xiao Mubei saw the excitement, so he hurriedly came over and smiled and said to the king.
"Lu Zhan, you know what I am talking about!" King Qi gritted his teeth and glared at Lu Zhan as he continued.
"Third uncle, you misunderstood me. How could I deliberately frame you and make you look embarrassed?" Lu Zhan looked at King Qi, still smiling calmly, and did not show the slightest hint of guilt or guilt due to King Qi's words.
It's a worried expression.
"Lu Zhan!" King Qi gritted his teeth and called Lu Zhan again.
He didn't believe that he had misunderstood Lu Zhan!
How can there be such a coincidence in this world!
"Third uncle, you really misunderstood me! Have you forgotten that you just forced me to provide evidence, and I was forced to use it to prove my innocence!" Lu Zhan looked at King Qi,
He sighed quietly and said to him rather aggrievedly.
"My king, how can I..." King Qi still stared at Lu Zhan with bulging eyes, but when he talked about it later, he was obviously a little less confident.
What happened to him just now?
Why did he bite Lu Zhan and not let go!
Let him win if Lu Zhan wins! After all, he is still his nephew! When the time comes, he will praise him a few words and reward him with something. When others see him, they should not praise him as a kind and generous uncle!
Why did he have to argue with his nephew just now?
At this moment, King Qi really regretted that his internal organs were throbbing in pain.
Why is he so stupid!
However, Emperor Zhengxuan obviously did not want to leave too much time for King Qi to be upset. Eunuch Liu, who had reported everything to Emperor Zhengxuan one by one, returned at this time and said, "Your Majesty, Second Young Master Lu, and Young Master Xiao, your Majesty would like to invite you.
Let’s go over.”
"yes."
"yes."
Lu Zhan and Xiao Mubei Qi responded in unison. Seeing that King Qi didn't hum, they both turned their attention to King Qi in perfect agreement.
"Yes, my lord, I obey your order." Even though King Qi's feet were as heavy as a thousand catties at this moment, he still had to bite the bullet and not come down.
"Your Majesty, please go first." Xiao Mubei threw another rock at Prince Qi's head as if to add insult to injury.
King Qi glared at Xiao Mubei with resentment. Then, he flicked his long sleeves and walked towards the high platform where Emperor Zhengxuan was with an angry look on his face.
Xiao Mubei winked at Lu Zhan, the two of them looked at each other and smiled, and then they raised their feet and followed him in unison.
"Let's go, Ah Wu, let's follow." Princess Xiao obviously didn't want to let go of such an opportunity to watch the excitement at close range. She raised her eyebrows at Xie Wu, and then quickly took Xie Wu's hand.
Behind Lu Zhan and Xiao Mubei.
Eunuch Liu, who walked to the very back, looked at the figures behind him, and a faint smile suddenly escaped from the corners of his lips.
It’s great to be young!
As soon as Eunuch Liu left the stage, Emperor Zhengxuan's gloomy voice sounded over there.
"King Qi, do you have anything else to say?"
Eunuch Liu lowered his head, as if he heard nothing. He bent down and quietly walked to stand behind Emperor Zhengxuan.
"Father, son, son..." King Qi lowered his head. He was desperately thinking about what he should say to regain his lost face, but at this moment, his mind was as messed up as a ball of pulp.
I'm confused, I really don't know how to defend myself.
"Your Majesty, the emperor is actually doing this for the sake of A Zhan's reputation! He is also afraid of others gossiping, and wants A Zhan as the leader to convince everyone, so he will be stricter with him!" Seeing his son being asked
Being speechless, Concubine Xian had no choice but to stand up.
I have to say, ginger is still spicier!
The Concubine Xian was worthy of being born in the deep palace courtyard. In just a few words, she immediately promoted King Qi from a narrow-minded person who was jealous of the younger generation taking away her limelight, to a person who worked for the younger generation.
People whose reputation has forced them to appear as evildoers!
"Yes, yes, what the mother and concubine said is true. The son and minister were also afraid that others would say that Brother Zhan won disgracefully, so he was a little harsher on him!" Seeing that his mother and concubine rescued him, King Qi let out a long sigh of relief.
At the same time, he echoed her words again and again.
Although there are loopholes in this excuse, it is better to have loopholes than to throw his face on the ground and let all the civil and military officials and noble ladies around him come to pay their respects!
