Sheng Hong's face suddenly turned ugly, and his mind was buzzing!
He resisted the urge to curse and cursed, gritted his teeth and said angrily: "This is simply ridiculous!"
Isn't it just ridiculous?
The imperial mausoleum of the late emperor collapsed inexplicably. The emperor led the vassal kings and ministers to go to accuse him. After entering the imperial mausoleum, they were "caught in the act" by more than ten thousand rebels who had already ambushed them, and they were all captured...
Each one of them is enough to be included in the "annals of history".
Strong anger boiled in Sheng Hong's heart.
Sheng Hong took a deep breath, exhaled a breath of dirty air, and took another deep breath... Calm down!
"I want to go back to Beijing!" Sheng Hong looked at Xie Mingxi steadily and said slowly and firmly: "Mingxi, I want to go back!"
Xie Mingxi did not avoid Mrs. Sheng Hongming's gaze: "If you want to go back to Beijing, I won't stop you. However, you have to wait patiently for a few days. When your mother issues the decree, you can return to Beijing in a fair and open manner."
The emperor was captured by the rebels. This was the first time since the founding of the Qi Dynasty. It was also a shame that would go down in history and be laughed at by future generations for thousands of years!
There must have been chaos inside and outside the court.
At this moment, Empress Dowager Yu could no longer sit back and watch, and would definitely step forward. It was reasonable to summon Sheng Hong back to the capital with a phoenix edict.
Sheng Hong wanted to say something else, but Xie Mingxi's face darkened slightly: "Things have already happened. It will not help to be angry, angry or anxious. It is even more taboo to act impulsively based on passion."
"Sheng Hong, I know you are impatient. When I saw this urgent report, I was so angry that I wanted to go back to Beijing immediately to kill all the villains who were behind this incident and put all the chaos in order."
"However, the more times like these, the more calm you must be! Never act out of anger!"
Xie Mingxi became angry in a rare moment, her beautiful face flushed, and her eyes were so bright that it almost stung Sheng Hong's eyes.
"Sheng Hong, calm down immediately!"
…
The two have been married for several years, and apart from Sheng Hong occasionally being sour and jealous, they have almost never blushed.
Xie Mingxi was accustomed to concealing her true feelings. She usually talked and smiled, but remained calm when she was angry. She had never seen such an angry look on her face before.
Sheng Hong looked at Xie Mingxi, and the surging blood slowly subsided.
After a moment, Sheng Hong whispered: "Mingxi, I'm sorry. I was in a hurry just now, was too impulsive, and my tone of voice was bad. I didn't mean to get angry at you."
The nameless anger in Xie Mingxi's heart mostly dissipated in Sheng Hong's apologetic eyes. He turned his head to the side and snorted softly.
Sheng Hong stepped forward and took Xie Mingxi into his arms.
Xie Mingxi still turned her head and refused to turn around.
Sheng Hong rested his head on Xie Mingxi's neck, with a hint of grievance in his tone: "Mingxi, no matter how noisy A Luo is, you can't bear to get angry. If I tone a little harsher, you ignore me. You are too partial.
.”
Knowing that Sheng Hong meant to make her happy, Xie Mingxi couldn't help but laugh, turned around and spat at him: "It's a shame that you have the face to compare with A Luo."
When Xie Mingxi smiled, Sheng Hong also laughed.
After looking at each other and smiling, Sheng Hong said: "You are right to remind me. I am just waiting for Queen Mother Fengzhi."
…
In the evening of that day, Chief Gu Shan also learned about what happened in the capital.
Gu Shanchang was furious, his face was livid with anger, and he cursed for half an hour without stopping.
He scolded Emperor Jian'an for being fatuous and useless. After sitting on the throne, he did nothing serious except eliminate dissidents and suppress the vassal king. He scolded the traitors for being bold. He also scolded the late emperor who had already gone to hell. He chose the third prince as a blind man.
Crown Prince...
Xie Mingxi and Sheng Hong looked at each other silently.
Emperor Jianwen chose the third prince as his heir, mostly because of Empress Dowager Yu. The blind person was Empress Dowager Yu, so Emperor Jianwen cannot be entirely blamed.
However, Chief Gu was the most protective of her shortcomings. He must not slander Empress Dowager Yu in front of her. The two of them could only remain silent.
Gu Shanchang lost his temper and his throat was dry and astringent. He drank a cup of hot tea bitterly, but it still didn't quench his thirst. He quickly drank another cup and finally calmed down a little.
Xie Mingxi then opened her mouth and said: "Master, calm down."
"We were also very shocked when we saw the news today. The situation in the capital is so chaotic that His Highness must return to the capital. Once the Queen Mother's decree comes, he will immediately set off back to the capital."
Chief Gu Shan nodded: "That's fine. Given the Queen Mother's temperament, Feng Zhi will arrive in Shu soon. Pack your clothes and luggage as soon as possible."
Sheng Hong and Xie Mingxi agreed together.
The three of them were silent for a moment.
Shanchang Gu didn't know what he was thinking about, his expression was changing, and he raised his head after a while. He looked at Sheng Hong with a complex expression: "Sheng Hong..."
After just two words, he stopped talking again.
Sheng Hong obviously guessed what Gu Shanchang was going to say, and whispered: "After I return to Beijing, I will go to see my mother first. No matter what the situation is, I will try my best to protect my mother."
A trace of gratitude flashed in Gu Shanchang's eyes: "Thank you."
After such a huge disaster happened, Queen Mother Yu didn't know what kind of predicament she was in.
Sheng Hong's promise at this time is more important than anything!
Xie Mingxi looked at Gu Shanchang and said softly: "Master, you are so worried about your mother. Why don't you go back to Beijing with Sheng Hong?"
After hearing this, Chief Gu Shan was very moved. After thinking about it, he gave up the idea: "When Sheng Hong leaves, you will only be left in the Prince of Shu's Mansion. A'luo is still young and needs someone to take care of him. There are people everywhere in the academy.
Stare. No matter how talented you are, you can't handle it all by yourself, so I'd better stay!"
That’s fine.
Xie Mingxi nodded and said no more.
…
Xie Mingxi expected it to be good.
The situation in the capital was chaotic and critical. After Empress Dowager Yu summoned two elders, Lu and Li, to discuss the situation, she issued a decree to summon Sheng Hong and his wife to return to the capital.
Fengzhi arrived in Shu just one day later than the secret report.
After receiving Feng's order, Sheng Hong frowned: "I'll just go back to the capital. Why does the queen mother want you to go back to the capital with her?"
A flash of deep thought flashed in Xie Mingxi's eyes.
Empress Dowager Yu ordered her to return to the capital together, which must have some purpose... However, there was no time to think about it now. Fengzhi called urgently, and the two of them had to rush to the capital within half a month.
Ah Luo was still young, so she stayed in Shu. With Chief Gu Shan taking good care of her, she should be fine.
Xie Mingxi also has a deeper worry. She doesn't know what changes will happen when she goes to the capital. Her master and daughter are her weaknesses, and she must not take risks easily. It is safer to stay in Shu.
Sheng Hong had no time to see anyone, so he wrote several letters and ordered his confidants to send them to Lu Chi and others one by one. He also entrusted Ye Jingzhi with all the general affairs of the Prince of Shu's palace.
Before leaving, Xie Mingxi specially wrote a letter to Lin Weiwei, asking Lin Weiwei to return to the Prince of Shu's Mansion to stay for a while and sit in the inner residence of the Prince of Shu's Mansion on her behalf.
Before Lin Weiwei could reply, Xie Mingxi and Sheng Hong had already set off together, leaving Shu where they had lived for more than two years, and rushed back to the capital day and night.
