The only one who never shed tears was the King of Ningxia, whose heart was as solid as a rock.
Xie Mingxi looked at the cold-faced King of Ningxia from afar, feeling quite unhappy.
In her previous life, it was this man who made her fearful as if walking on thin ice and made her work hard to live a humble life. In this life, she did not take revenge directly, but did a lot of things secretly, pushing him into the abyss step by step.
When death was imminent, who could he show to by showing such a brave and unafraid manner?
Xie Mingxi snorted in her heart and walked over.
The King of Ningxia frowned and stared at Xie Mingxi coldly.
Li Xiangru's crying stopped suddenly, and she stood in front of the King of Ningxia in a panic, her voice suddenly rising: "Xie Mingxi! What are you going to do?"
This sound attracted everyone's attention.
Xie Mingxi twitched the corner of her mouth and made a sarcastic arc: "I have something to tell the King of Ningxia. Why are you so nervous? In front of everyone, are you worried that a weak woman like me will be harmful to the King of Ningxia?"
Bah! What kind of weak woman are you?
Li Xiangru resisted the urge to spit. Thinking of Xie Mingxi's current status in front of her, and thinking that she would have to rely on Xie Mingxi to pray for her in the future, she had to endure the sulking breath and silently stepped aside.
The King of Ningxia was put under house arrest every day, his hands and feet were weak, and his hands and feet were tied up with thick and strong iron chains. It was like a beast with its sharp teeth pulled out. It looked scary, but in fact there was no threat.
Xie Mingxi stood three meters away and said calmly: "King of Ningxia, after you were imprisoned in the sky prison, Lu Chi wrote a letter to the emperor."
As soon as Lu Chi heard the words, the King of Ningxia, who had always been as cold as ice, finally changed his expression and blurted out: "What did he write in the letter? Did he mention me?"
Li Xiangru: "..."
At this time, the King of Ningxia showed his true feelings, and his eyes shone with unmistakable eagerness. This was in sharp contrast to the indifference he had shown towards Li Xiangru's mother and son before.
No matter how dull Li Xiangru was, he was shocked to notice something strange. The suspicion deep in his heart quickly flashed through his mind. Could it be that His Highness was interested in Lu Chi...
No! Absolutely impossible!
Li Xiangru tried her best to tell herself in her heart not to think wildly or doubt her husband.
The King of Ningxia didn't even look at her, let alone explain. He dragged the heavy iron rope two steps forward and asked eagerly: "What did Lu Chi write in the letter?"
The last line of defense in Li Xiangru's heart finally failed, and her pretty face was as pale as paper.
Xie Mingxi glanced at Li Xiangru who looked miserable, then looked at the King of Ningxia and said unhurriedly: "Lu Chi did mention you."
Before the King of Ningxia could feel relieved and happy, he gave the King of Ningxia another heavy blow: "Lu Chi said, God is watching what you do. You are here today all because of yourself. He only regrets that he is in Shu and cannot come to Beijing."
.Can’t see you being executed with my own eyes!”
These words were like sharp knives stabbing deeply into the chest of the King of Ningxia.
The king of Ningxia felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his face turned pale, and his eyes were filled with pain.
Xie Mingxi saw it in her eyes, and the sullenness that had been pent up in her heart for several years finally came out of her chest. She turned around and left.
There was a dead silence in the cell.
After a while, Li Xiangru finally struggled to squeeze out a few words: "Your Highness, why do you care so much about Lu Chi?"
The king of Ningxia was heartbroken and responded with a sneer: "Don't you know? Why bother asking for the truth?" After saying that, he closed his eyes and stopped looking at Li Xiangru.
…
Li Xiangru was confused and stood there for a long time.
At this moment, her world completely collapsed and fell into boundless darkness.
She opened her eyes, but couldn't see anything clearly. She was like a moth flying into the flames for a little bit of light. She was burned up by the flames...
Until the voice of the commander of the Royal Forest Guards sounded in my ears: "The time has come, please leave the feudal princes."
Li Xiangru nodded numbly, and took one last look at the man he loved most in his life. Then he turned and left. Brother Ting kept crying, and after running a few steps, he fell, and kept shouting "Mother Concubine"
.
But his mother and concubine, who used to love him so much, seemed not to hear him and didn't look back at all.
Brother Ting cried even harder.
Yin Xiaoxiao, who was in an equally bad mood, suddenly felt angry.
She knelt down, held the crying brother Ting into her arms, and said angrily: "Li Xiangru! No matter how sad you are, don't abandon brother Ting!"
This angry shout was like a stone sinking into the ocean.
Li Xiangru, who had the best face and the highest temperament, didn't even look back at this moment, and just walked out of the prison stiffly.
Brother Ting was still crying, his eyes were red from crying, and his voice was hoarse from crying. As if he had been abandoned, he held onto Yin Xiaoxiao's clothes tightly.
Yin Xiaoxiao had no choice but to keep holding Brother Ting. As a result, Brother Lin refused again: "Mom, hug me!"
Brother Ting was born tall and strong. After Yin Xiaoxiao hugged Brother Ting, he couldn't free up his hands to hug Brother Lin. Brother Lin kept making noises and crying. Yin Xiaoxiao felt a headache from hearing this.
At this moment, Xie Mingxi stepped forward and hugged Brother Lin: "Brother Lin, be good, Aunt Seven will hold you."
Only then did Brother Lin stop crying and put his head into Xie Mingxi's arms.
Yin Xiaoxiao and Xie Mingxi looked at each other and wanted to say something, but their throats seemed to be blocked by something and they couldn't say anything.
Things are so helpless.
We don't know what fate the King of Fujian will end up in. The King of Fujian brought all this on himself, no wonder Sheng Hong and his wife. But she really couldn't do it if she was allowed to talk and laugh to Xie Mingxi as usual without any grudges.
Xie Mingxi pursed her lips and walked out of the prison with Brother Lin in her arms.
…
Jinluan Palace.
This was the first major court meeting when Sheng Hong ascended the throne as emperor.
Sheng Hong was wearing a dragon robe and sitting on a dragon chair. He glanced around and saw all the officials bowing their heads in respect. He couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.
Above thousands of people, overlooking all living beings.
The supreme imperial power is the most seductive poison. Once a person is contaminated with it, it is easy to become addicted, and it is also easy to have the illusion that he is always superior to others and can control the destiny of others at will.
As the emperor, the greatest enemy is neither the vassal king nor the ministers. Instead, he has to contend with people's most instinctive greed and desire for power.
The same goes for the harem.
Empress Dowager Yu was the winner of the power struggle, but she was also completely dazzled by the word power. She was greedy for the Phoenix Seal that no longer belonged to her, and occupied the Jiaofang Palace and refused to let it go.
It is precisely because he knows the dark and endless battles in the palace that Xie Mingxi hates the palace so much.
Don't worry! Mingxi, I, Shenghong, will definitely be a different "Mingjun" and give you a completely different harem.
Sheng Hong didn't know what he thought of. He raised his eyebrows and smiled, then opened his mouth: "My dear friends, is there anything important you need to say today?"
