In the back hall of Wenzhao Pavilion, Princess Yulong, who was forcibly dragged here by Zhao Hongrun, asked angrily.
She obviously had good intentions and hoped to restore the impact of the "disappearance of the princess" on the emperor's brother in front of her so that he would not be punished by their father. However, she did not expect that Zhao Hongrun did not appreciate it at all and dragged her here. Wenzhao Pavilion, my hands were scratched by him and hurt.
"It's my turn to ask Sister Huang this question."
Instructing the imperial guards to keep watch inside and outside the palace, Zhao Hongrun faced Princess Yulong alone in the back hall and said calmly: "Shen Yu and the others were here just now. I can't say anything to you... Princess Huang, don't you think you are too willful? "
"I..." Princess Yulong was defeated by Zhao Hongrun's serious eyes and turned away with a guilty conscience.
However, Zhao Hongrun still did not let her go, and said loudly: "I know that you returned to the palace to save me from the punishment of my father... But have you ever thought about it? If you think about this issue again now, don't you think Is it too late?!"
"How could..." Princess Yulong retorted in a low voice.
"How could it be?" Zhao Hongrun narrowed his eyes and said unceremoniously: "I asked you yesterday if you wanted to leave the palace. If so, I will help you... why didn't you consider it at that time? Will I be punished by my father if I take you out of the palace privately?"
"I..." Princess Yulong shrank her neck guiltily and whispered: "You said you had a way..."
"Yes, I said that I have my own way to excuse myself...so I don't need you to pretend to think about me."
hypocritically……
Princess Yulong raised her head angrily when she heard this and stared at Zhao Hongrun.
"Isn't it?" Zhao Hongrun sneered twice: "It's because He Xinxian disappointed you and made you feel that you can't escape the fate of marrying in another country in this life, so you gave up. By the way, you didn't want me to be punished. That's not the case. Son?"
"What's the point?" Princess Yulong retorted angrily: "I'm really worried about you."
Zhao Hongrun narrowed his eyes: "If He Xinxian had kept the appointment, you would have gone away with him. Now that he has not kept the appointment, the emperor's sister has begun to consider the emperor's younger brother's situation... Haha, this worry is too cheap!"
"..." Princess Yulong trembled when she heard the words, opened her mouth, but was speechless, and lowered her head with a guilty conscience.
Immediately, she began to sob quietly.
Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun sighed slightly and comforted: "Don't cry all the time. I don't mean to blame you... I don't regret helping you. At most, I'm just upset that He Xinxian is not as reliable as I thought."
"Really...really don't blame me?" Princess Yulong raised her head pitifully, with a look of guilt on her face.
Zhao Hongrun smiled slightly.
Indeed, he did not feel chilled because Princess Yulong had only thought of the situation he was about to face until now. After all, she was just a fifteen-year-old girl, and she was not as talented or intelligent as Bai Bai. It's like paper, what do you blame her for?
He just didn't want her to give up the fight now.
It's ridiculous to think about it. Zhao Hongrun, the person who helped him, hasn't given up yet, but Princess Yulong, who is about to be married to Chu State, has given up on her own. What kind of nonsense is this?
"Don't worry, I won't let you be married to Chu State." Zhao Hongrun gently rubbed Princess Yulong's hair on her forehead, and her calm tone was full of incredible and convincing promises.
"Hongrun, do you have any idea?"
Princess Yulong looked at Zhao Hongrun in disbelief, her eyes shining with anticipation.
Thinking about it, if there was a way, how could she be willing to leave the place where she was born and raised and reluctantly marry to the Chu Kingdom thousands of miles away?
To say that she had figured it out was nothing more than an excuse for her to deceive herself and Zhao Hongrun.
"As long as you listen to me." Zhao Hongrun said seriously.
What a farce! In the end, we are back to the starting point...
He sighed secretly in his mind.
Originally, when he saw that the relationship between He Xinxian and Princess Yulong was getting deeper and deeper, he wanted to go along with the situation, so he simply entrusted Princess Yulong to He Xinxian. However, he did not expect that He Xinxian was not as reliable as he thought. In the end, he had to let her go.
He came to find a way to save Princess Yulong.
If you think about it carefully, it's actually a bit ridiculous.
Princess Yulong looked deeply at the serious expression on Zhao Hongrun's face and nodded vigorously: "Well, I listen to you...Hongrun, just tell me what to do."
"First of all, you have to hide." Zhao Hongrun analyzed in a low voice: "As long as you are by my side, I will not be passive... If you are caught by the father, it will really be over. When the time comes, the father
As long as you send someone to put me under house arrest, you will have to marry me."
Princess Yulong had a look of horror on her face when she heard this. She held her face and said in shock: "Then...did I ruin your plan? Hongrun, you originally planned to place me in the city...I
…”
Because Zhao Hongrun gave her some hope again, she couldn't help but regret her naive decision at that time.
"Sister Huang, you don't have to blame yourself for this. On the way back, I thought about it repeatedly. Hiding outside the palace has its own benefits, and hiding inside the palace has its benefits."
"How...how do you say that?"
"The advantage of hiding outside the palace is that it will be more difficult for my father to find the emperor's sister, because it is impossible for my father to publicize this matter, but on the other hand, there are also disadvantages... The disadvantage is that our actions will be criticized by our father.
The emperor understands this as a strong resistance, so the emperor’s desire to find the emperor’s sister will become even more intense, and he will not give up until he achieves his goal!”
"Then... what about hiding in the palace?"
"Hiding in the palace is equivalent to hiding under the eyes of the father, because he knows where the emperor is, so he will not be too anxious... But everyone who is in power wants to control everything. We
Just stay under his nose obediently, and maybe things will take a different turn."
Princess Yulong nodded in understanding: "You mean, actually I don't have to hide?"
Zhao Hongrun rolled his eyes and looked speechless. Obviously, he just said a lot, and Princess Yulong most likely did not understand it.
"It's not that you don't want to hide. You have to hide. Otherwise, my father will take you away directly, and I won't be able to stop you... To put it simply, it means letting your father know where you are, but forcing him to do so."
There is no way to capture you."
"So... so profound..." Princess Yulong was confused.
At this moment, Zongwei Shen Yu hurried in and saw Princess Yulong still standing in the back hall. He was shocked and said hurriedly: "Your Highness, why haven't you hidden the princess yet? Your Majesty is here!"
"
"Father is here?" Princess Yulong was obviously very frightened of Emperor Wei. When she heard this, her face turned pale and her face turned pale. She ran around in the back hall like a headless fly, hoping to find a place to hide.
.
Seeing her struggling to get into a cabinet, Zhao Hongrun shook his head speechlessly and whispered a few words to Shen Yu.
"Understood!" Shen Yu nodded knowingly: "I will inform the brothers immediately and cooperate with His Highness."
Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun pulled out Princess Yulong, who had half of her body hidden in the cabinet, and pulled her all the way to his bedroom.
Although it was not the first time for Princess Yulong to come to the bedroom of the emperor's brother Zhao Hongrun, her face was still red with embarrassment and she did not dare to look around.
"Won't Father come in from hiding here?" Princess Yulong asked expectantly.
"You are thinking too much." Zhao Hongrun curled his lips, pulled Princess Yulong to the couch, and pursed his lips: "Come up."
"Eh?!" Princess Yulong blushed with embarrassment and looked embarrassed: "This...how can this be done? This is your bed, Hongrun..."
"Are you willing to be kidnapped by your father?" Zhao Hongrun glared at her and pushed her onto the bed. Regardless of the panic and shame on her face, he took off her boots and threw them to the bottom of the bed: "Lie in. , cover yourself with quilt."
"Oh..." Princess Yulong's ears were red with embarrassment, and she huddled in the quilt. To her disbelief, Zhao Hongrun actually took off his clothes and lay down in the quilt.
"Hongrun..." Princess Yulong's face was red with embarrassment. Just as she was about to say something, Zhao Hongrun pushed her head into the quilt: "Don't say anything, my father is here."
After that, Zhao Hongrun put down the gauze curtain of the bed and lay down.
At the same time, Zongwei Shen Yu had returned to His Highness Wenzhao Pavilion. He knelt on the ground and saluted Emperor Wei who was waiting for his son Zhao Hongrun to come out to pick him up. He said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Your Highness is pleased to hear that Your Majesty has come to our Wenzhao Pavilion. I was overjoyed and wanted to come out to pick him up in person, but His Highness was caught in the cold last night and could not move while lying on the couch. It was really difficult to pick him up, so I went out to greet His Majesty in my humble position and apologized to His Majesty."
"Contaminated by wind and cold? Hum hum hum!" Emperor Wei laughed angrily. He knew very well that his son Zhao Hongrun was in high spirits when he returned to the palace just now. How could he get sick just because he said he was sick?
Obviously this scoundrel is playing some trick!
Emperor Wei did not expose it and said calmly: "Unfortunately, the emperor is ill due to the cold. How can I blame him?"
With that said, he walked towards Wenzhao Hall, with Tong Xian following closely behind.
However, it was not just the eunuchs who came with Emperor Wei this time, but also dozens of imperial guards.
Seeing that these imperial guards were also preparing to enter Wenzhao Pavilion, Shen Yu immediately signaled to the other clan guards to stop them.
"The imperial guards are not allowed to enter the palace. Everyone, please stop here!"
Not to mention that all the guards looked at each other in shock, even Emperor Wei who was walking in front stopped in surprise and asked in surprise: "These guards... I brought them here. Are you going to stop them?"
At this time, anyone with knowledge would kowtow to the ground to accuse him, but Shen Yu did not do so. He cupped his hands and said to the emperor: "Reply to Your Majesty, I know that these guards are coming with Your Majesty, but once they come, the guards are not allowed to enter." The palace and the pavilion are the rules of the palace. Secondly, if the imperial guards broke into our Wenzhao Pavilion, if they accidentally damage anything, I am afraid that His Highness will be blamed later."
Obviously, Shen Yu also knew that these imperial guards came into his Wenzhao Pavilion to capture Princess Yulong.
"Aren't you afraid that my prince will be blamed later?" The emperor narrowed his eyes and said in an incomprehensible tone: "Aren't you afraid that I will blame you?"
"Afraid!... However, Bei Shi still has to do this, because what Bei Shi and others learned in the Zong Mansion is to be extremely loyal to the prince! Whatever Your Highness says, I will do what I am waiting for Zong Wei. This is what I waiting for Zong Wei will do." The foundation of one’s life.”
Emperor Wei took a deep look at Shen Yu who was speaking righteously, and the anger on his face faded slightly: "What is your name?"
"Your Majesty, my humble position is that of the Eighth Prince's former clan guard chief, Shen Yu."
"Shen Yu..." Emperor Wei murmured a few words, nodded in approval and said: "Very good, the people in the clan did not teach you in vain. Keep your loyalty to Hongrun, and you will be rewarded."
"It's your duty, don't dare to expect anything in return."
"Ha!" Emperor Wei glanced at Shen Yu with admiration, turned back and said to the guards outside the palace: "As per the rules, you wait here."
"yes!"
"Thank you for your understanding, Your Majesty." Shen Yu also knelt on the ground and clasped his fists.
"Let me see if Hongrun is seriously ill..."
After leaving a sarcastic remark, Emperor Wei stepped into Wenzhao Pavilion.
