Chapter Eight hundred and ninety-ninth, grace and righteousness!
Prince Huai's Mansion.
A luxurious carriage stopped at the gate of the palace. The porter saw the word "Xiao" with gold edges on the curtain of the carriage. His expression became serious, and he immediately stepped forward and said respectfully to the young man who got off the carriage: "I've seen you before."
General Xiao."
Xiao Jue looked at him and asked, "Is His Highness here?"
The porter nodded and said, "General Xiao, please wait here for a moment, and I will go and report it right away."
Xiao Jue waved his hand and said, "No need, I'll go in and find him myself."
When he strode towards the palace, the concierge immediately stopped him and said: "General Xiao, this is the rule set by His Highness. No matter who comes, he must be informed first..."
Xiao Jue's face darkened, he looked into Prince Huai's palace and said coldly: "Zhao Rui, come out and see me!"
He spoke angrily, and in an instant, there was a thunderous sound in Prince Huai's palace.
In the pavilion by the lake, King Huai was playing chess with someone. Suddenly he raised his head, put down the white chess in his hand, and said, "I'll excuse you for a while."
King Fu rubbed his fat belly and said, "Go."
King Huai walked out of the pavilion, walked a few steps, then turned back and said: "Don't touch my chess pieces."
King Fu snorted coldly and said: "Haha, you have to cheat when playing chess with a junior. Do you think your uncle Wang is shameless?"
After King Huai left, King Fu looked around, moved the black chess on the chessboard a few squares, shook his head and said, "If I don't move yours, I'll move my own, right?"
King Huai left the pavilion by the lake and walked outside the palace gate. Looking at Xiao Jue standing next to the carriage, a trace of doubt appeared on his face. He stepped forward and asked, "General Xiao is here. What's the matter?"
What are you doing?"
"Don't worry, I'm not here to fight with you!" Xiao Jue said coldly and walked into the palace with a stern face.
King Huai was stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared on his face.
Xiao Jue and he both lost their mothers in their early years. At that time, he was raised by Queen Xiao, and Xiao Jue often went to the palace to play. The two of them often fought, and they often teamed up to beat the princes and dignitaries who bullied them to pieces.
One is Empress Xiao's younger brother, and the other is Empress Xiao's adopted son. The two are similar in age. They fight each other, but when they encounter foreign enemies, they will stand on the same front without hesitation.
Later, Empress Xiao passed away, Xiao Jue never entered the palace again, and the two rarely saw each other.
Xiao Jue's words just now brought back some memories deep in King Huai's heart. After he came to his senses, he saw the concierge looking helplessly at Xiao Jue who walked in. He waved to him and said: "Here
Don’t worry about it, just go and do your work.”
In Prince Huai's palace, Xiao Jue sat on the guest seat, looked at Prince Huai, and said, "We haven't sat face to face and talked like this for a long time."
King Huai personally poured tea for him and said, "It's been more than ten years."
Xiao Jue said: "Nineteen years."
Prince Huai sat opposite Xiao Jue and changed the subject: "Why are you free to come to the palace today and don't have to accompany your wife?"
Xiao Jue did not continue his topic, but looked at King Huai and said: "It has been twenty-two years since the death of Concubine Yang, and nineteen years since the death of the Queen."
King Huai's fingers trembled when he picked up the tea cup, and some tea spilled on the table.
He calmly took a sip of tea and said: "Speaking of which, the Queen's death anniversary is coming soon. I plan to pay homage to her tomb in a few days. Will General Xiao go with me?"
Xiao Jue showed a self-deprecating smile on his face and said, "Are we worthy?"
King Huai's expression changed slightly and he asked, "What do you mean, General Xiao?"
Xiao Jue took a deep breath, looked at him, and asked: "After all these years, haven't you noticed at all that there is something strange about the deaths of Concubine Yang and her sister?"
King Huai put down his teacup and said, "The Imperial Hospital has long concluded that both the concubine and the empress died of illness. Is there something strange? Haven't we seen it with our own eyes?"
Xiao Jue looked at him and gritted his teeth: "Do you really believe their lies?"
King Huai frowned and said, "What on earth do you mean?"
There was a trace of bloodshot eyes in Xiao Jue's eyes and he said: "It was the Tang family, it was the Tang family and Concubine Tang Hui who killed Concubine Yang and Concubine Yang!"
A look of disbelief appeared on King Huai's face. He stood up suddenly, looked at Xiao Jue, and said sternly: "What did you say?"
"Concubine Tang Hui wanted to become the master of the harem, but Concubine Yang and the empress were both obstacles in her way." Xiao Jue closed his eyes, then slowly opened them and said, "So she killed Concubine Yang and the empress."
"Tang family, Concubine Tang Hui..." King Huai clenched his teeth. After a moment, he breathed a sigh of relief, sat down slowly, and said: "The brothers of the Tang family and Concubine Tang Hui died unjustly, which can be considered as revenge for the mother and concubine..."
Xiao Jue looked up at him and asked: "Do you really think that the revenge of Concubine Yang and the empress has been avenged?"
King Huai looked at him and said: "Brother Tang Huai has already died, and I saw Concubine Tang Hui hang herself with my own eyes. Don't you still feel relieved and want to dig them out and whip their corpses?"
"Although they are dead, the culprit of this matter is still alive and well." Xiao Jue stared into King Huai's eyes and asked: "Do you think that with the help of the Tang family and Concubine Hui, you can kill Concubine Yang?
And the queen?"
King Huai finally realized something, looked at Xiao Jue indifferently, and said, "General Xiao, be careful what you say."
Xiao Jue slammed the table, grabbed Prince Huai's collar, and gritted his teeth: "You know exactly what is going on!"
King Huai shook his head and said, "I don't know."
"Bastard!" What he responded to was an angry punch from Xiao Jue. King Huai took a few steps back, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked at Xiao Jue, and said, "For the sake of your Majesty, I will do this."
Pretend I didn’t hear what you just said.”
Xiao Jue took a sip and punched him again.
"Presumptuous!" A trace of gloom appeared on King Huai's face. He grabbed Xiao Jue's wrist with one hand and punched him in the face with the other hand.
Xiao Jue did not dodge, but made a fist with his remaining hand and hit King Huai on the chest.
Bang! Bang!
Xiao Jue's face turned black and blue. King Huai took a few steps back, covering his chest, and there was an abnormal color of blood on his face.
When the servants of the palace heard the sound and rushed over, Xiao Jue and Prince Huai were already covered in glory. The faces of several servants changed. They looked at the two fighting each other and said hurriedly: "General Xiao, Your Highness, please don't fight.
Come on, stop fighting..."
Xiao Jue kicked someone over and said angrily: "Get away!"
King Huai looked gloomy and said, "I will teach this man a lesson today, and none of you should interfere!"
The servants of Prince Huai's Mansion stood where they were, neither advancing nor retreating.
General Xiao is not only the General of the West Gate Guard, but also the uncle of the state. Even His Highness King Huai has to call him uncle. His Highness has always been gentle and elegant. How could the servants of the palace see him like this?
When these two people are fighting, how can they intervene?
Seeing the two of them punching each other and kicking each other like gangsters, the servants in the palace were as anxious as ants on a hot pot. One of the smarter ones finally came to his senses and said immediately: "Quickly
, go and invite the princess over!"
Bang!
Xiao Jue punched King Huai on the shoulder for the last time, and King Huai stamped his palm on Xiao Jue's chest. The two of them took a few steps back at the same time, standing a few steps away from each other, breathing heavily and glaring at each other.
After a while, the anger on Xiao Jue's face gradually dissipated. He looked at King Huai with extremely disappointed eyes and said in a low voice: "You and I, surnamed Zhao, will sever all ties from today on!"
King Huai looked gloomy and asked: "What kind of kindness do you and I have?"
Xiao Jue took one last look at him, then turned and left without looking back.
He no longer looked at the gloomy expression on King Huai's face, and naturally he couldn't see the deep sadness in King Huai's eyes when he watched him go away.
Prince Huai's Mansion.
When Princess Huai heard the news about the fight between King Huai and Ximen Guard General Xiao Jue, she rushed here immediately. From a distance, she saw Xiao Jue coming out of the hall with a bruised nose and face. She couldn't help but quicken her pace and throw away the few people behind her.
The maid hurried past Xiao Jue and ran towards the hall.
Several maids hurriedly caught up and passed Xiao Jue.
"Stop!" Xiao Jue, who had walked a few steps, suddenly stopped, turned his head suddenly, looked at a maid from Prince Huai's Palace, and said loudly: "Turn your head!"
