His eyes didn't look like he didn't hear clearly, but more like he was stunned because he heard clearly.
Lin De raised his eyebrows and said, "Your Majesty knows Xia Kongxue? This name is too strange, and I don't know who gave it to me."
"Xia, Kongxue." Xia Zhaoxue retracted his gaze and looked at the uneven ground, and said very softly.
He also had this name. When his father strictly required him to write three analysis articles, he lay on the desk and wailed to his sister beside him, saying that he wanted to change his name to Xia Kongxue.
Since then, this name has been often used by his younger sister to tease him, and the letters sent from Liling often include the following sentence: Senior Brother Kong, are you satisfied today?
Xia Zhaoxue's eyebrows were slightly closed, and his fingertips were slightly tightening on the quilt. The severe pain that surged up from time to time spread from the apex of his heart to his limbs, making it difficult to breathe.
"Prince?" Lin De looked at him and called.
"Well," Xia Zhaoxue responded, raising his eyes and looking back at Lin De, "Sir, what did Xia Kongxue do?"
"Does the prince really know him?"
Xia Zhaoxue smiled lightly and did not comment.
The name made him curious and talented, so Linde called him a knight.
"I don't know the specifics. I vaguely heard them mentioning that it was a girl. At that time, they heard that I was from Beijing, so they casually asked me if I knew this person, without giving details." Linde said.
"Girl?"
"Um."
"Girl." Xia Zhaoxue pondered.
Now when I hear the word girl, the first thing that comes to my mind is the girl that Yan Qinglin or Yang Guanxian often talk about.
"Ah Li." Xia Zhaoxue said in a low voice.
Seeing that Xia Zhaoxue was distracted again, Lin De frowned and felt that he was going too far.
The reason why I mention those old people is to encourage the prince and make him get back on his feet. After all, such a slump will only make Yan Qinglin's arrogance more arrogant. Moreover, people have to live after all, and how many people are begging for nothing and lingering on.
, they all still want to struggle to live.
"Your Majesty," Lin De said earnestly, "you need to make plans for yourself. You can't always be like this."
"Puppet?" Xia Zhaoxue asked.
"yes……"
Xia Zhaoxue smiled and looked towards the door.
Across a door, there is a pair of ears outside, or two pairs, or three pairs...
"Sir, caring is a mess," Xia Zhaoxue said, "I have never said that I am willing to be a puppet. What I mean is that I will not worry about my life because they treat me as a puppet. In their eyes, a puppet has
The use of puppets.”
His voice was open and natural, neither raised nor lowered. He spoke calmly, and Pan Binhua heard clearly from outside.
Not only him, but also the guards nearby heard it.
Pan Binhua observed their expressions, and there was no change in the guards' expressions. Their initial sympathy towards the so-called prince had long since turned into numbness.
Pan Binhua was worried, fearing that these guards would talk nonsense in front of Yan Qinglin.
Wait, Pan Binhua blinked and suddenly realized that he was not here to listen to the corner this time. He had Yan Qinglin's order.
At the same time, he was also afraid that Xia Zhao would continue to say anything that would make Yan Qinglin unhappy, so Pan Binhua hurriedly stretched out his hand and pushed the wooden door open.
In the room, Mr. Lin De, whose eyes were shining brightly after what Xia Zhaoxue said, was frightened and felt unhappy.
"I have met the crown prince," Pan Binhua said with an uncomfortable salute, his eyes lowered, not daring to look at Xia Zhaoxue. He turned to Lin De again, still with his head lowered, "Mr. Lin De, madam, please come over."
"I don't want to go," Linde said with a groan.
"Sir, you'd better go," Pan Binhua said. "Sir, I've read books and there's a saying called "Be polite first and then attack with force."
Linde was so angry that he wanted to curse.
"Sir, go ahead," Xia Zhaoxue said, "it will pass anyway."
Linde was angry and weak. He raised his hand and scratched the back of his head. Finally he stood up timidly and said, "Then I'll go take a look first."
"Okay." Xia Zhaoxue responded.
Linde walked toward the door.
Pan Binhua and Xia Zhaoxue bowed and resigned, but Xia Zhaoxue shouted, "Wait a minute."
"What's the matter, Your Majesty?" Pan Binhua asked with his head lowered, not daring to look at the young man sitting on the bed against the wall.
"What happened in Zuixian Tower," Xia Zhaoxue said, "How many people died in Zuixian Tower?"
Pan Binhua's heart skipped a beat and he didn't dare to say anything.
"How many people died?" Xia Zhaoxue asked again.
"Twenty-one or two..." Pan Binhua said softly.
After a moment of silence, Xia Zhaoxue said, "Is it someone from Fang Guanyan who went to Zuixian Tower to do something?"
There were guards standing outside the door. Pan Binhua didn't dare to make a sound at all and nodded invisibly.
Xia Zhaoxue stopped talking again.
Pan Binhua waited for a while, raised his eyes and glanced at him, and saw that his eyebrows were thoughtful, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Prince?" Pan Binhua said.
"Close the door." Xia Zhaoxue said.
Pan Binhua was stunned. He didn't dare to go to jail. There were people outside.
"Close it." Xia Zhaoxue's voice sounded stern and rare.
Pan Binhua pursed his lips, turned around and closed the door. He glanced at the guards and Mr. Linde who was waiting for him outside with a puzzled look on his face.
Pan Binhua turned around and came over and said, "Your Majesty."
"There is a man being held in a miscellaneous room in the backyard of Zuixian Tower," Xia Zhaoxue said lightly, "Did Fang Guanyan use this man to deal with Shen Lie?"
Pan Binhua paused and said, "That's what happened."
"What about Shen Lie, how's it going?"
"I have no idea……"
"Is Fang Guanyan back?"
"I came back a long time ago. I went to the front line this morning, and I think I'm still there now," Pan Binhua said.
Xia Zhaoxue is confused about "Frontline?"
When he realized what he had said, Pan Binhua quickly covered his mouth.
"What front?" Xia Zhaoxue looked at him.
"Just, just the front line..."
"Pan Binhua." Xia Zhaoxue's voice became more serious.
Pan Binhua didn't know what to do. He paused and suddenly stamped his feet and said, "The front line is Yongding Gate. Outside the city are refugees, all of them people. There are people all over the mountains and plains. These refugees want to enter the city, but where can they?"
Fighting with those Suwei capital masters, so Prince, you, you understand."
"Teacher, are you going to organize those refugees?" Xia Zhaoxue said.
Pan Binhua hesitated and nodded vigorously.
"She is really crazy." Xia Zhaoxue said.
"No, Your Majesty," Pan Binhua said, "It's okay to start an uprising now. Your Majesty, he ran away! He went to Hejing with all the civil and military officials!"
Xia Zhaoxue's Junrong had no expression. Such an earth-shattering event sounded as calm to him as if he had drank a cup of tea.
"If the emperor runs away, can she succeed in revolt?" Xia Zhaoxue asked.
"But the city is in chaos now..."
"No, relying on refugees alone will definitely not work," Xia Zhaoxue said. "With the teacher's character, she must be prepared in many ways."
"Um."
"I understand, she asked you to call Mr. Linde over, does she want him to go to Tiancheng camp to be a lobbyist?" After saying that, Xia Zhaoxue shook his head and said with a smile, "Can you let those who have been displaced and suffered so much?"
How can she bear it when the suffering refugees pave the way for her?"
"How hard and ruthless Madam's heart is, shouldn't the Crown Prince know better than anyone else?" Pan Binhua said weakly, "After all, the Crown Prince was able to survive in the first place because..."
Seeing the stiff look on Xia Zhaoxue's face, Pan Binhua stopped in a hurry and did not dare to continue talking. He even wanted to give himself a big slap.
