Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 847 Dust
Li Xuanye glanced at her, but did not speak.

When the crown prince didn't make a statement, everyone became a little panicked. No one could tell what was going on in his mind. He was a newcomer on one side and an old one on the other. He was afraid of being offended when he spoke for either side.

The concubine coughed lightly: "Your Highness, in my opinion, Miss He's injury is serious, why don't you order the imperial doctor to come here first, and use medicine and bandages to avoid scars..."

"Not urgent."

The princess didn't want to wade into this muddy water, so she simply said yes and never spoke again.

Gu Yuci lost his temper: "Your Highness, then Zhao Xiwei..."

Li Xuanye put down the cup.

Gu Yuci's heart moved, and he subconsciously shut his mouth.

He didn't look at Zhao Xiwei, nor at He Manzhi, he just leaned his body on the back of the chair and asked casually, "Where's He Kui?"

Then a follower responded: "Your Highness, Mr. He is outside."

"Call him in."

"Yes."

He Manzhi felt his head buzzing, and his eyes suddenly widened - she just got a scratch on her face, why did she call her father over?
Gu Yuci was also a little confused by Monk Zhang Er. He couldn't ask Mrs. He for her crime in order to protect Zhao Xiwei, right?

In a moment, He Kui entered.

He is a direct line official of the Eastern Palace, and the crown prince's most important member. His words and deeds are all first-class solemn and respectful, which cheered up everyone in the banquet.

He swung his sleeves and adjusted his clothes, and bowed solemnly in the court: "Your Highness summoned the officials to enter, why?"

The prince sat in the chair, his eyes were like ice in the dark night, he glanced at He Kui briefly, and said in a deep voice, "You are fine."

Everyone in the audience looked confused.

He Kui sounded like he was struck by lightning: "Your Majesty deserves to die, please speak clearly."

Li Xuanye sneered, picked up the cup again, and did not answer his question.

Even though He Kui's psychological quality is very good, he couldn't help but feel a little panic. After thinking for a while, he glanced around, seeing his daughter shivering with her face covered, and seeing Gu Yuci's sharp eyes, he went to see his wife again.

Madam He rolled her eyes, stuck out two index fingers from her sleeves, made a relative gesture quietly, and then shook her head at him.

He Kui frowned, his heart suddenly became clear, and he said slowly: "The official is His Highness's attendant, and His Highness should be the leader in everything...today's matter..."

He glanced at He Manzhi, "Since His Royal Highness asked, I dare not hide it. As early as when I was toasting, I could hear the commotion in the banquet..."

He didn't explain how He Manzhi's face was hurt, and he didn't argue about what was right and what was wrong, just such a short sentence and passed it lightly.

As the most trusted confidant of the prince, he already knew the purpose of the prince calling him out.

"It's a small matter to hurt my daughter's face, but it's a big thing to hurt the majesty of the East Palace, but the official..."

His complexion darkened, and he pointed straight at Gu Yuci, suddenly cold and stern: "I dare you, I just ask Miss Gu - how can a woman be worthy of a Chu Wei if her virtue is not good? How can she be a Chu Concubine?!"

Gu Yuci jumped up in a hurry, shouting angrily: "He Kui!"

He Kui has always been tough as an official, and is famous for his steadfastness in the government and the public. He would not give an inch even to the emperor and empress dowager, let alone a boudoir girl?
He straightened his waist, and admonished him solemnly: "Miss Gu, a woman should be chaste and virtuous. As a prospective princess, you should lead by example and be cautious in your words and deeds at all times. But you are jealous, and you are so jealous at the palace banquet. On top of that, insulting the family members and family members, and thus hurting the dignity of the Eastern Palace—all kinds of crimes are unforgivable!"

He was quick-witted, and his debating skills were second to none among the prince's staff. His words were so magnificent and loud that everyone was stunned.

Not to mention that Zhao Chengyan waited for a group of girls, all of whom were about to lose their minds.

Fighting in the inner house is all about occupying the moral high ground. Even if you want to frame someone, you have to go around and do some superficial work.

But He Kui used Chaotang's method.

What twists and turns, the public says that the public is right and the woman says that the woman is reasonable, how long will the debate last?

In the face of real power, there is no chance of rebuttal.

Say you can't, you just can't.

The prince doesn't want this princess, he should solve the problem for the prince as an aide.

Then he waved his sleeves again, cupped his hands and said to the prince again: "The official has risked his life to write down a letter of remonstrance, and I will ask your majesty to play it in the morning tomorrow. Gu's virtue is not good, so he can't be the princess!"

"what!?!"

Everyone was shocked.

You actually want to write to the emperor, requesting the retraction of the imperial decree? ?
"He Kui!" Gu Yuci slapped the table with a palm, "You—" But just as she uttered this word, she suddenly met Li Xuanye's gaze.

He stared at her coldly, and there was no emotion in those eyes that made her dream. With just one glance, Gu Yuci seemed to be in an ice cellar at that moment, and even felt a sharp dull pain in his heart.

"allow."

After the faint word fell, Gu Yuci almost had a cardiac arrest.

At this moment, it was like falling into reincarnation.

Great ambitions, reduced to phantoms.

The hall is full of gold and jade, turning into ashes.

Gu Yuci suddenly felt his Qi and blood flow backwards, and his whole body trembled.

"His Royal Highness!" Her voice was a little hoarse, and after gritting her teeth, she felt inexplicably angry again: "What happened today has nothing to do with me at all! It's not me who quarreled, and it wasn't me who beat people! Where did I come from?" Lost in virtue? Where did the jealousy come from?!"

Turning to He Kui again, he questioned: "I am the Concubine of the Eastern Palace personally selected by His Majesty! I am the prospective Crown Princess who will be registered with a letter from the Secretary! Why do you say that I can't do it?!"

Her breathing was messy and she was on the verge of going crazy, but her heart was extremely clear - the reason why He Kui dared to do this was only because of the prince's order behind her.

She knew clearly that the crown prince didn't want to welcome her as a concubine, but she also didn't want to turn against the emperor, so she found an excuse for He Kui to come forward—the officials of the Eastern Palace jointly wrote a letter saying that she was jealous and unworthy of being a concubine. If you want to protect her, what can you do?

The more sober you are, the more ruthless you become.

She had already failed once and was discussed by everyone in the capital for four whole years.

Now that the victory is close at hand, how can it fall short and become the laughing stock of the whole world again?
"Li Xuanye." She called his name, her tone was inexplicably cold: "Are you really going to push me into a desperate situation for her?"

"No." Li Xuanye smiled lightly, after a moment of silence, he said slowly, "No one will push you to the brink of death."

His tone was very calm, but it made her feel desperate, "As long as you return to the position you should return to, you will still be the eldest lady of the Gu family, or the lonely cousin, prosperous and rich, and everything will remain the same."

"Li Xuanye!" Gu Yuci suddenly said.

She laughed, her bright peach eyes were slightly red, she squeezed her palms tightly, looked at the man in front of her, and said aggressively, "Prosperity and wealth? Everything remains the same? Do you know how much I have paid for you?" The price? Do you know what kind of humiliation I have endured for you?!"
