Ximen Zheyin's hand clenched into a fist in his sleeve, narrowing himself with deep eyes filled with unwillingness. He looked at Ximen Hao without performing the rituals of the king and the subject, but asked, "How is the father now?"
"This is also the reason why I came out of the palace to see you in person." Ximen Hao said, "No one sent to contact you before got your answer. Now I want you to tell you where Chu Hang is, only Chu Hang can
Save the father's life.”
Ximen Zhe didn't expect that Ximen Xianchu's disease really needed Chu Hang to treat it. Although he had received news from Ximen Hao before, asking about Chu Hang's whereabouts, he knew that he had concealed Chu Hang's explanation to him and thought it was Ximen.
In order to clear the misunderstanding with Su Ranhua, Hao wanted to find Chu Hang. Therefore, he did not tell those people where Guigu was located in Cuiwan Lake. It seems that he was wrong now.
Ximen Zhe knew that for a person whose life was at stake, it would be dangerous to delay a little bit, but he didn't want to admit that it was his own ghost thought that delayed anything, so he asked, "If the second emperor brother is really worried about his father's body,
Why don’t you personally get Ma Li Jing to meet me and ask me? How much time can I get to wait at the gate of the palace? I think the emperor’s brother is still concerned about the position that replaces his father.”
"I didn't expect you to be so petty, guarding the secrets of Guigu and ignoring your father's safety." Ximen Hao retorted.
He did not expect that Ximen Zhe would be so stubbornly guarding the secret of Guigu. Su Ranhua told him that Ximen Zhe had been to Guigu several times and was familiar with Guigu, so he immediately sent Zhang Baichuan to go with him.
Ximen Zhe met halfway and asked where Guigu was located, but Ximen Zhe actually stubbornly refused to say anything. If he knew this, he would definitely ask in person to see if he could pry open Ximen Zhe's mouth.
"The second emperor has always been unpredictable in his work. How do I know if this is another plan?" Ximen Zhe said, "The things in the palace are unpredictable, just like you actually want to be the emperor in the blink of an eye."
"It's not that I want to do it, I'm already!" Ximen Hao walked closer to Ximen Zhe and said in a deep voice, with sharp eyes, with a proud dragon power in the world.
"The King of the West, thanks to the emperor's efforts to turn the tide, otherwise the Qingyuan Dynasty would have changed the world long ago, and even the King of the West would have become a rebellious minister who was ill-hearted and conspired to murder the King of the East." The minister was on the sidelines.
"Yes, it's my negligence to not protect the elder brother." Ximen Zhe turned around and looked at the wooden coffin. It was made by Ximen Sheng halfway for the sudden death of Ximen Sheng. Since he was escorted back to Beijing, Ximen Sheng began to get sick.
The journey became heavier and heavier. He wanted to rush to the capital and ask the imperial physician to treat him well, but he didn't hold on and died halfway.
Ximen Zhe's expression showed a bit of sadness. He just wanted to seize Ximen Sheng's power and did not want him to die!
"I am a slave from the Eastern Prince's Mansion. I accompanied the eldest brother to Beijing. I poisoned the eldest brother and murdered the eldest brother. I hate that I didn't discover it in time, and I misunderstood the eldest brother's illness and harmed the eldest brother.
!" Ximen Zhe said in annoyance, "When the slave knew that his affairs were exposed, he fled in panic and fell off the cliff and died."
"Don't be sad, this is a cold conspiracy. He has planned it long ago and it is not easy for people to discover it." Ximen Hao said, "When he knew that you escorted the emperor's brother back to Beijing, he arranged it on you.
The plan was done. Fortunately, he failed in the end.”
"His failure has made you, the second emperor brother." Ximen Zhe said that although Ximen Hao has regarded himself as the new emperor, he does not want to call him the emperor.
"Liu He, immediately copy the Guigu address from the King of Xi and send it to Commander Zhang to find Chu Hang as soon as possible." Ximen Hao ignored Ximen Zhe's forbearing dissatisfaction and said to a guard beside him.
Watching Liu He walk forward, Ximen Zhe hesitated a little, but still sued him where Guigu is.
Just as Ximen Hao returned to the palace, Su Ranhua hurriedly ran out, passed through all the civil and military officials, passed by Ximen Hao, and stopped in front of Ximen Zhe.
"Ranhua?" Ximen Zhe looked up at the lingering figure. After several months, he stood in front of him again, trying to reach out to pull it, but he glanced at the one behind Su Ranhua.
The cold light of Tao, like a thorn, suppressed what he thought in his heart.
He wanted to fight against Ximen Hao, but he didn't want Su Ranhua to make things difficult for all civil and military officials at this time. And when his status with Ximen Hao suddenly changed drastically, he had endured for two years.
But he still has to endure it.
Su Ran stared at Ximen Zhe with her eyes fixed on her eyes, and her sharp eyes seemed to penetrate his heart through Ximen Zhe's eyes.
Because of the concealment, Ximen Zhe felt guilty and did not dare to look directly at Su Ranhua. He blinked playfully and smiled, "Why? Are you so anxious to welcome me?"
"Xi Wang, I have something to ask you." Su Ranhua saw the hiding in Ximen Zhe's eyes, and his tone was even more stubborn and unstoppable.
Ximen Zhe looked at her without saying a word. When he watched her run towards him from the palace without any scruples, he knew that her relationship with Ximen Hao had not become very bad, and all the scales were still leaning towards Ximen.
Hao.
Su Ranhua turned around and looked at Ximen Hao.
"Don't miss me, I will hold a banquet for my fourth brother." Ximen Hao dropped this sentence, turned his head and took the civil and military officials to return to the palace first.
The people behind Ximen Zhe also followed into the palace, and only Su Ranhua and Ximen Zhe were left at the empty palace gate for a moment.
"Are you happy after designing the East King?" Su Ranhua took the lead in breaking the silence and spoke.
Ximen Zhe is no longer the boy he was on that day, he is getting further and further away.
"Even if everyone knows that it was designed by me, the evidence for the Dongwang incident is conclusive, and the design cannot be mentioned in the open. You are an exception." Ximen Zhe said.
"Dong** was rewarded for capturing Utu. How could he join forces with Utu? Isn't this the biggest joke in the world?" Su Ranhua asked back.
"There are no eternal enemies, nor eternal friends, only interests are eternal." Ximen Zhe avoided Su Ranhua's eyes and slowly spoke up this sentence.
"Is this the reason why the Eastern King and Utu conspired?" Su Ranhua sneered, "I didn't expect that one day the Western King would become more and more ruthless and more scheming. I don't know that the concubine Yao who lives in Chunlinyuan is safe.
Do you still recognize you?"
"Does what you want to say to me only have to do with the Great Emperor?" Ximen Zhe asked calmly.
"What do you think?" Su Ranhua looked directly at Ximen Zhe. She wanted to hear what Ximen Zhe wanted to say.
But Ximen Zhe's throat moved, but no sound was made. He had never been so depressed when he was with Su Ranhua. It was so difficult to say something.
"Do you have nothing to say to me?" Su Ranhua asked softly directly.
