Chapter 984 Hostage
The father's stern question made Concubine Hui's head buzz, and she couldn't think of how to respond at all, and she didn't dare to speak out.

Later, the father said something, but Concubine Hui didn't pay much attention to it, probably to make her support the father's decision or something.

In the end, Concubine Hui returned to the place where she lived in a daze. This palace was specially rebuilt for her family visit. It was located in the center of the palace, very close to the queen's palace.

But the queen is not her biological mother, she is just a princess raised beside the queen.Because of her beauty, she was chosen by her father to marry Emperor Dongyuan and became a pawn.

It is conceivable that her relationship with the queen is not close.

In this huge royal palace, apart from the nanny and Rui Xiang who grew up with her, the only one who treats her best is Grandma Wang.

Ruixiang came out to welcome her, seeing her master in a daze, she was very anxious, she chased after Concubine Hui and asked her what was wrong?what happened?

"Father won't let me bring brother Qi back." Concubine Hui said dejectedly.

Ruixiang didn't take it seriously: "Madam, the king must like the seventh prince too much, so he wants to stay by my side, just like what people in Dongyuan said to play tricks on grandchildren with fish in them."

Concubine Hui, who had just sat down, heard Rui Xiang say that she was trying to get a grandson with fish, and she couldn't help but sneered, "Rui Xiang, it's not about getting a grandson with a fish, it's about getting a grandson with sugar. Yee means sugar."

Ruixiang giggled and said: "Mother, I am so ignorant, I am laughing at you. Next time, I will remember that I am trying to get grandchildren with sweets, not fish. I have always wondered why the Dongyuan people want to make grandchildren with fish in their mouths." , it turned out that the servant made a mistake."

Concubine Hui covered her lips and smiled, it was quite funny that this Ruixiang could actually create a word of her own.

Concubine Hui's mood improved a lot after being teased by Ruixiang. She blamed herself secretly, perhaps complicating things.

Maybe the father simply likes Brother Qi, and he is really unfilial to be worried about his father.

So Concubine Hui put this matter aside for the time being, and Qi Geer can just stay with the father, and when the father is rare enough, he will naturally be sent over.

But when she woke up this morning, Concubine Hui's eyelids twitched, and Brother Qi's cry sounded in her ears, and her heart hung up again.

After breakfast, she became even more restless, after much deliberation, she decided to go find her father alone, and beg her father again.In the end, she didn't even see her father's face, and the servants in her father's palace even said that she couldn't see Brother Qi without the king's order.

Concubine Hui suddenly felt something was wrong, but at this moment, she heard Brother Qi crying again, it was heart-piercing, and Concubine Hui couldn't help but say that she wanted to break in.

As a result, the servant directly knelt down to her, begging her not to disobey the king's order, otherwise his head would be lost.The servant was the most favored servant by the father's side, Concubine Hui had to give him some face, so she had to stop.

Fortunately, Brother Qi's crying stopped quickly, and Concubine Hui's heart calmed down a little, and she also calmed down.

Her father had a bad temper, and she always said what she said. If she rushed in rashly and annoyed her father, she would not be the one who would suffer in the end.Especially now that Brother Qi is still in his father's palace, he has to act more cautiously, and must not harm Brother Qi.

Thinking of this, Concubine Hui backed away, turned around, and walked back. She stopped when she was a little further away from her father's palace, and turned to look at the most majestic and majestic building in the palace, thinking that Brother Qi didn't know what to do in it now. What, will those palace people take good care of him, will Brother Qi miss her, tears can't stop flowing down.

Did she do something wrong in returning to Xirong according to her father's arrangement?What is the intention of the father and king to take away brother Qi alone?
Concubine Hui finally started to think about these issues, she could no longer be so muddled and let others manipulate her.

But before she could figure out what to do, she saw a palace maid walking around, Concubine Hui was afraid of attracting attention, so she hurriedly wiped away her tears and returned to her own palace.

Returning to the residence absent-mindedly, Concubine Hui took her three daughters to greet Grandmother Wang and the Queen. After returning, she played with the daughters for a while, and the king suddenly sent a servant to invite her over.

Concubine Hui was immediately happy, her father must have called her to pick up Brother Qi, she happily agreed, and followed the servant to her father's palace.

On the way, she still blamed herself, blamed herself for thinking wildly, and even wronged her father, feeling very embarrassed.

The servant took her into the main hall of her father's palace and then stepped aside. Her father probably just came back from court, with a tired look on her face, and she was sitting on a chair rubbing her forehead.

Seeing her coming in, the prince raised his head and glanced at her, and after she said hello, he pointed to the chair next to her for her to sit on.

"Father, is there anything you are unhappy about? Can you tell me to listen to my son, my son is not talented, and I can't take care of the world for my father like Brother Wang and Wang brothers, but I am willing to do my best to replace my father. The king will share some of it." Because of the self-blame just now, Concubine Hui's words are sincere from the bottom of her heart.

King Xirong hummed noncommittally, and praised his daughter a few words, saying that he was very pleased that she could think so.Then he took the opportunity to talk about Brother Qi, and he wanted to keep Brother Qi by his side.

"Of course, this is temporary. Father will treat Brother Qi well."

King Xirong finally made a promise to his daughter.

Concubine Hui felt her mind was blank, and she didn't react for a while.

As soon as she regained her composure, she rushed to her father and knelt down: "Father, Brother Qi has never left my daughter's side. His father has set a precedent by allowing Brother Qi to stay. In the daughter's palace, the daughter raised her personally, so I beg you to be merciful, let Qi Geer follow her by her side."

King Xirong patted the back of his chair and stood up angrily: "Why, you still want to follow the example of Emperor Dongyuan in your father's territory? You don't take your father seriously, do you?"

The royal father's tone was extremely displeased, and he walked away with a huff of sleeves.

Concubine Hui was taken aback. Her father's words proved that he was very dissatisfied and angry. Her hanging heart beat violently, and she hurriedly walked in front of her father: "Father, please calm down. My daughter didn't mean that, and my daughter definitely didn't." This kind of thinking.

The daughter just wants to take care of Brother Qi by herself. Both mother and son stay in the palace, and we dare not take half a step out of the palace without the order of our father. "

She could see it, the father made it clear that he wanted to take Qi Geer as a hostage, so he spoke according to his father's mind, so the father should be satisfied, right?

After hearing what Concubine Hui said, King Xirong turned around and walked back, and sat back on the chair again.He asked the maid to pull Concubine Hui up again, and he stared at Concubine Hui with a knife-like gaze, carrying a chill.

Concubine Hui's heart was instantly frozen.

She had seen this kind of look from her father before. It was a year before she was going to marry Dongyuan. In a rage, her father killed one of his favorite concubines for chewing her tongue.The concubine cried and begged for mercy, and the father stared at the concubine with such eyes, then kicked the concubine who was crying while hugging his thigh, and issued a killing order sharply.

Since then, Concubine Hui couldn't help shivering when she thought of the look in her father's eyes at that time, it was too terrifying.

But today, just now, she saw her father's eyes again, but it was looking at her.

Could it be that her father wanted to kill her?Why?For so many years, she has paid so much in order to be a good chess piece of her father, and she has not made any mistakes, and she has completed the tasks assigned by her father!

Father can't be so cruel, can he?She is the father's own daughter!
Concubine Hui's thoughts are right and wrong.

Her father was murderous, but not to her, but to Brother Qi.

The king of Xirong is about to go to war with Dongyuan, the purpose is to overthrow the emperor of Dongyuan and become emperor himself.

The recall of Concubine Hui, mother and son was all arranged by him, and it was all for his wolfish ambition.

After Concubine Hui's mother and son returned to Xirong, the courtiers advised that Brother Qi was the emperor's favorite prince and must be held hostage in his hands.So he took Brother Qi away from Concubine Hui.

King Xirong had great confidence in himself, and believed that his many years of painstaking efforts to raise funds, unite with Beiliang, coupled with Shen's internal support, and the fact that he held the Dongyuan Emperor in his hands, would eventually make the Dongyuan Emperor step down.
