The woman was satisfied, looking at Zhao Kang lovingly, and tickling Zhao Kang's palm with her fingers.
Suddenly there was a shouting outside.
"Zhao Kang!"
It was the prince Xiao Xuance. Qin Yufeng quickly retracted her hand like a thief.
Zhao Kang turned around: "What are you doing? I didn't realize there are still patients here!"
The tone was the same as that of lecturing a son. The key point was that Xiao Xuance was still very indifferent. Qin Yufeng, who was looking at him on the hospital bed, was secretly speechless.
Xiao Xuance hurriedly ran in, his face flushed: "Something big happened."
"What's the matter?" Zhao Kang frowned.
Xiao Xuance said angrily: "I heard that many people came to the gate of the palace."
"What big thing happened?" Zhao Kang was surprised.
Xiao Xuance rolled his eyes: "What else can there be? You didn't go to Wen Dou today, which made those people so angry that they all gathered in front of the palace gate to ask you to give an explanation."
"Hey, what's the big deal for me?" Zhao Kang said nonchalantly.
Xiao Xuance and Qin Yufeng were both stunned. Xiao Xuance said in shock: "This is not a big deal! If you go out now, you might be beaten to death by them!"
"Now people outside are saying that you are a disgrace to the country by running away without fighting. Yesterday, everyone wanted to praise you to the sky. Today, you have become a stinking piece of shit. Everyone wants to step on you. foot."
"You're right, so I decided not to go out today." Zhao Kang nodded seriously.
Xiao Xuance curled his lips and said: "Tomorrow is the last game. You win one and lose one today. If you lose tomorrow, those guys will have to kill you on the spot. Are you sure?"
"Why are you so worried? Have you studied today? Morning classes haven't finished yet, so be careful His Majesty comes back to whip you."
Zhao Kang's mind is not on the literary fight right now and he doesn't want to talk about it too much.
When Xiao Xuance heard this, he said angrily: "You are a heartless thing. My Highness cares about you well, but you actually said that!"
"Thank you, you can go away."
His Royal Highness the Prince left angrily, Qin Yufeng said cautiously: "Young Master, I'm sorry."
"You're right about this, no need to say sorry, just take good care of yourself." Zhao Kang consoled him.
Qin Yufeng: "Then, can the young master win tomorrow?"
"What do you think?" Zhao Kang laughed.
The third game is couplets. This is the easiest way to determine the outcome of a literary fight. Based on the eternal absolutes in my mind, I cannot lose.
Seeing Zhao Kang's expression, Qin Yufeng finally felt relieved. Just as she was about to say something, the chief eunuch came to the Imperial Hospital.
"Mr. Zhao, His Majesty has summoned you."
"Got it~"
Zhao Kang responded, asking Qin Yufeng to rest in peace and recuperate, and followed the eunuch chief to the Royal Garden.
Zhao Kang is still a little afraid of this place because he has been beaten before.
Especially when the chief eunuch brought him here and said, Your Majesty is inside, Mr. Zhao, please go in by yourself.
After taking a glance, there was not even a single palace maid or eunuch inside.
Could it be that he didn't go to Wen Dou this morning, so he planned to beat himself up?
When you walk into the Imperial Garden, you will see the stunning figure in her dragon robe.
Not seeing the court staff or the sword, Zhao Kang felt relieved, stepped forward and saluted: "Your Majesty."
"sit down."
Xiao Linglong pointed to the stone chair opposite. There were several books on the stone table.
After making sure that he was not beating himself up, Zhao Kang felt much more relaxed and sat down and asked: "What is the purpose of your Majesty's summons?"
"I asked the Imperial Guard to disperse those people gathered outside the palace. I declared to the outside world that you had an emergency today. With this reason, the public resentment can be eliminated."
Zhao Kang was immediately moved. Not only did he not beat himself up, he even wiped his ass himself. This woman is so nice!
"Excuse me, Your Majesty."
Xiao Linglong shook her head calmly, and then said: "Mr. Lin also found out the identities of the three killers last night. They are all citizens of the Imperial Capital. However, they are usually hidden very deep. They should be spies they planted in the Imperial Capital.
I just don’t know which country it is from.”
Zhao Kang frowned and then turned cold: "I understand."
Xiao Linglong hesitated for a moment but did not say anything after all. She changed the topic and pointed to the books on the table.
"Tomorrow is the third game, fighting couplets. These two books record the upper and lower couplets that Zhang Zi used in his life and humanistic fights. Please read more."
Zhao Kangshu raised his brows but did not touch it. He just smiled and said, "It's no use."
Her Majesty the Empress was slightly displeased: "We have already lost a game today, and we must win tomorrow. How can you be so arrogant!"
Zhao Kang asked back: "Before yesterday, who else believed that the poem I wrote could defeat Zhang Zi?"
Xiao Linglong was stunned for a moment and curled her lips and said: "It's up to you. Anyway, if you lose, I can't spare you!"
The two of them didn't talk about anything after that. Zhao Kang stood up to leave and he had to go make arrangements. As soon as he turned away, Her Majesty the Empress called out.
"Zhao Kang!"
"Your Majesty, is there anything else?" Zhao Kang turned around.
Xiao Linglong looked at him and sighed: "Ye Hongxue's martial arts cultivation is extremely high. Even I and Mr. Lin will not be her opponent. Don't do anything stupid."
Zhao Kang laughed and said softly: "The assassination of me should have nothing to do with her. Otherwise, given her strength, if she had tried to kill me, I would have died a long time ago. It should be the Third Highness or the King of Han of Qi."
Xiao Linglong frowned: "Even if it's just the two of them, you can't deal with them."
"How will you know if you don't try? Your Majesty, there is no need to persuade you."
Zhao Kang's eyes turned cold: "Now that something has been done, you must be prepared to bear revenge!"
Left the palace.
Zhao Kang returned to his own house in Xizhimen. Not many people knew that he lived here, so those who were angry because he was defeated without fighting today did not gather here.
Zhao Kang opened the door and wrote four letters in succession. Zhao Kang put away the letters and went to the post house to have people rush to deliver the letters.
Watching the messenger leave, he turned his head and looked in the direction of the State Guesthouse, his eyes gloomy.
Prince Ning's Mansion.
Xiao Feiyu was teasing a canary in a cage. The old man with a goatee next to him glanced at it and said softly: "Your Highness, Liu Xiangyin has not sent back any news since they arrived in Yuanjiang County. Do you want to send someone to take a look?
"
“There’s no need to do superfluous things.”
Xiao Feiyu laughed, picked up the insect with a clip and put it into the cage, focusing on the bird in front of him.
But he said: "It's just one Yuanjiang County. As long as Zhao Kang is here, there will be countless Yuanjiang counties in the future. Don't hurt the friendship between him and me because of this trivial matter."
The goat-bearded old man nodded and glanced at the bird jumping in the cage: "Zhao Kang didn't even go to Wen Dou today. It seems that he was really fascinated by Yufeng. If he can completely surrender to Your Highness, Your Highness,
There’s nothing to worry about.”
"It's hard to say."
Xiao Feiyu raised his head: "A bird kept in a cage may fly away once the cage is opened, so Liu Xiangyin and Mei Ruolan don't have to worry about it, but Qin Yufeng must watch it die!"
