The night wind is like a knife, the moonlight is like water, the sky spans a river of stars, the light is shining, but the bright night sky puts a heavy air current on the palace.
The lights in Longfu Hall were dim, and the light from the Begonia glazed lamps in the corridor was brighter than the lights inside. As soon as Xiao Jue arrived at Longfu Hall, he felt a cool air. The majestic and towering palace seemed to be able to eat people.
As if, with his eyes open and his big mouth open, he wants to swallow everything.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor has ordered that no one wants to see you!" The emperor's personal eunuch, Eunuch Fu, came forward to welcome him. He is an older father-in-law who has served the emperor since he was a child. He has been in his sixties. His old face is full of loyalty and kindness.
The usual gloom and flattery of the royal palace were missing.
"Eunuch Fu, give me a report for this king!" Xiao Jue said calmly. If it were an ordinary person, he would have pushed him away and rushed in. However, the father-in-law in front of him had watched their brothers grow up, and there were no palace maids and
Despite all the filthiness of eunuchs, Xiao absolutely respected him.
Eunuch Fu frowned in embarrassment. He looked at the deep color of Longfu Palace and Xiao Jue's firm eyes. He sighed slightly and said: "My lord, you just returned to the capital today and hurried into the palace. You haven't eaten dinner yet.
It’s better to go back home first and talk about anything in the morning tomorrow morning…”
"I'm afraid I won't be able to make it in time!" Xiao Jue muttered, his voice turned cold, "Go and report!"
Eunuch Fu couldn't resist Xiao Jue, and just as he was about to go in, a deep and majestic voice came from inside, "Let him in!"
Xiao Jue's heart sank, and Eunuch Fu whispered: "Your Majesty is in a bad mood today. My lord, please be more considerate and don't contradict me!"
Xiao Jue nodded and stepped into the Longfu Palace. The spacious palace had mixed light and dark, and was a bit gloomy. The huge palace seemed particularly empty, and there was a cold and quiet smell in the air.
The emperor was half lying on the warm bed, with his eyes closed, as if he was in a slumber. His mature and handsome face was as sculptured, very three-dimensional and peaceful. After Xiao Jue saluted, Fang stood up. The emperor opened his eyes and glanced at him lightly.
He glanced at it and said slowly: "Why are you in such a hurry? You have just returned to the palace, so why not go back to your home and rest for the night."
"Didn't the Emperor ask questions knowingly?" Xiao Jue Jue stood in a humble tone. Today, neither of the two brothers seemed to be in the mood to greet each other. Xiao Jue's expression was not very good and he asked straight to the point: "Your Majesty, where is Xiao Bai?"
The emperor narrowed his eyes in displeasure and scolded: "Jue, pay attention to the tone of your words. Are you questioning me?"
"Brother I don't dare!" Xiao Jueyan said sincerely, his half-cast eyes flashed with worry. Thinking of the people who just appeared in the palace, he felt very uneasy. Xiaobai's whereabouts were unknown, and even Nan Jin couldn't find it. He probably
We can't find it, so we might as well ask the emperor directly, "Your Majesty, Xiaobai is still a child. Even if we have something, she is innocent. Why did she get involved?"
The emperor sneered. He had guessed that Xiao Jue would be confused when he met Fang Liusu and asked him for someone for her. His smart brother who had been smart all his life was defeated by a mere woman. His lifelong loyalty was not worth a few people.
The love between children of the moon lasts forever.
That’s not true!
Sons and daughters love each other long while heroes are short-tempered!
Who doesn’t understand this truth? How can you not understand it?
The emperor said coldly: "Jue, don't be stubborn. Fang Liusu will never enter the Xiao family again. You don't want face. The royal family still wants it. A woman who has married someone else is not qualified to be a princess. For her, you did not hesitate to hide it.
I? Contradict me? Jue, you are so brave, don’t make me unhappy because of this woman, otherwise, don’t blame me for being ruthless, you are not allowed to interfere in this matter, this is my advice to you! "
Xiao Jue's heart tightened. This was the first time his brother had spoken to him so sternly. The kindness and tolerance in the past had all disappeared. The person in front of him now was the emperor of Shengtian, not his eldest brother. Xiao Jue
He couldn't help but look up. In the dim light, the emperor's eyes were extremely cold. He secretly said something bad, "What did you do to that child?"
The emperor sneered, meaning, "That child will certainly have uses you can't imagine!"
Xiao Jue repeatedly opposed him for Fang Liusu, and the emperor was extremely unhappy in his heart. Fortunately, he got straight to the point and said: "Xiao Jue, I have said that you are not allowed to interfere in this matter. Don't ask anymore.
After so many years, you are tired, so take a good rest for a month!"
The implication was to suspend Xiao Jue for one month. Xiao Jue's pupils opened and he realized for the first time that his brother's ruthlessness and ruthlessness as an emperor was hidden too well, or was it intentional?
Ignore that after all his hard work for so many years, he was abandoned when it was of no use?
Disappointment slowly overflowed from his bones, drowning him like a cold spring. The king's heart is unpredictable. Even his brothers cannot be completely trusted?
"Yes, but the emperor gives me Xiaobai first!" Xiao Jue said without hesitation.
The emperor slammed the table suddenly, "Xiao Jue... you..."
"That's my daughter!" Xiao Jue looked at the emperor, his voice was calm, but his expression was so determined.
The emperor was startled, his eyes widened in shock, and he took a breath of disbelief. He slowly regained his composure for a moment, and sneered: "Jue, are you crazy? Do you believe this? Go and have a look.
That child and Nan Jin were printed from the same mold. She will be your daughter? Fang Liusu said this just because she hopes you will help her rescue her daughter. When she knows that the child is safe, she will be cruel to you again.
Stabbed, you poor little thing, you have suffered a lot, why can't you learn well?"
Xiao Jue showed no sign of wavering, smiled slowly, and said: "Brother, Nan Jin told me in Anyun City's other courtyard that Xiao Bai was my daughter. I didn't believe it at the time, and I thought he was there on purpose.
Fooling me is because jealousy blinds my eyes and makes me lose my judgment. Based on your understanding of Feng Nanjin, brother, can he lie? Liusu can lie, but Feng Nanjin can't. He doesn't bother to do such a useful thing.
It's humiliating. Although I don't know why they look so similar, I believe that Xiaobai is my daughter!"
The emperor's face was gloomy and he clenched his hands involuntarily. That child was from his Xiao family? How could it be possible? He was obviously so similar to Nan Jin.
But Xiao Jue and Nan Jin would not lie. If Nan Jin said yes, it must be the case!
In the lightning room, many thoughts flashed through his mind, and there was an untouchable and deep feeling. The little face that looked exactly like Nan Jin flashed before his eyes, and the emperor couldn't help but remember the day when the ghost took her into the palace.
Because of the fight, the child's clothes were stained with a little blood. If it were an ordinary child, her legs would be weak and trembling with fear, but she stood there quietly, not curious about the magnificence of the palace, not curious about the dangers around her, as quiet as water,
It seemed like she was visiting the palace, but these scenery could not catch her eye.
It’s disdain!
That arrogant look and aura were exactly the same as Nan Jin's.
"Are you afraid?" the emperor asked with a smile.
Xiao Bai quietly raised his eyes, his face that didn't smile often showed a strange smile, "My father said that only a person who is afraid will ask others if they are afraid, because he wants to find a companion!"
