Chapter 128 Attack
"Did you hear what the queen mother said?" The emperor looked at Zhongyihou again, "I want to give your daughter to Anjun Wang as a concubine. When you go back, you should discipline your daughter well. Don't think too much about it."

When Zhongyihou heard the emperor's words, Gu Xi, Princess Anjun, was a sure thing.

That's King An.

Although he is a county king, although he has no real power, he is most favored by the Holy Heart, and this person is so vicious to protect his weaknesses.

Hou Zhongyi thought that once the fact that he made Gu Xi a concubine was exposed, King An would definitely feel humiliated, so his face turned pale and he trembled all over.

This, this, if he had entered the palace an hour earlier, he wouldn't have gotten to where he is now!
"My servant obeys!" Zhongyi Hou was full of regret and fear, thanked him tremblingly, and was about to leave.

However, the Empress Dowager felt that this man was holding back a big deal, how could she let him go so easily, and scolded,

"Honor Zhongyi, do you know that the crime of deceiving the king will confiscate the family and exterminate the family, are you sure you didn't hide anything about Gu Xi?

Now you confess, Aijia can still ask the emperor to forgive you, but after being found out by Aijia, you..."

"The emperor forgives the sin, the empress dowager forgives the sin!" Zhong Yihou was frightened by the empress dowager's small temptation and threat, so he knelt down on the ground and tried everything.

"Mrs. Xie came to the door today to take her daughter Gu Xi as a concubine for her son Xie Hongbao. I just agreed to her before entering the palace."

"Hong Bao also wants Gu Xi?!" The emperor's face turned ugly when he heard it, saying that this is not two men competing for a woman, but three men.

What's more, Xie Hongbao succeeded in making her a concubine, and his son and good nephew wanted someone to be his concubine.

This, who is this humiliating!
"Well, you are loyal! It turns out that my royal majesty is in your heart, and it is not as good as General Xie. It is really good that you humiliate my two grandsons like this!"

The Empress Dowager's face was ashen, pointing at Zhong Yi Hou, she suddenly raised an eyebrow.

In fact, the Queen Mother's questioning of Zhongyi Hou had two purposes. One was to keep Gu Xi, and the other was to attack General Xie, trying to make the emperor angry with him, which would lead to suspicion and fear.

The Queen Mother knew very well that King Ning was slandered this time as collaborating with the enemy and treason. Although the emperor was the biggest black hand, General Xie was the main executor.

If such a small matter can make the emperor feel resentment towards General Xie, then the queen mother will have to say something worthwhile, and also give Gu Xi a credit.

Living up to the Queen Mother's expectations, the emperor heard the Queen Mother's words, and his already ugly face was about to drip water from his gloomy face. He stared at Zhongyi Hou, and shouted angrily,
"Honor Zhongyi, please give me an explanation, otherwise I won't spare you!"

"I don't have it, I dare not! Before I agreed to Mrs. Xie, I didn't know that the sixth prince and Prince An also fell in love with the little girl, let alone that they would propose to marry her as a concubine!"

Zhongyi was about to piss in fright, begging for mercy repeatedly, panicked, regretted drowning him, and at the same time resentment towards Gu Xi.

He felt that Gu Xi might have designed this matter. Before Mrs. Xie came to the door, she must have known that the sixth prince and the others would propose to marry her.

But if she told her, how could he agree to Mrs. Xie, let alone fall into this situation.

"Sophistry! The Ai family knows that the sixth prince has always admired Gu Xi, and the Ai family just heard that a few days ago, the king of Anjun also openly said that he wanted to protect her, how could you not know!

You already have the heart of admiration, even if you don't know that they will ask for marriage today, won't they in the future?
The Ai family understands, and the emperor also understands that you just fancy that General Xie has real power, and you want to use a daughter to win over his son and get in touch with him, so that you can be promoted easily! "

Hou Zhongyi's face turned pale with fright, he didn't say any sophistry, he just kowtowed and begged the emperor to spare his life.

The emperor kept a sullen face and didn't speak, but his anger value kept rising, and it was still shifting from Zhongyihou to General Xie.

In particular, several days have passed, Xie Changfeng promised to capture King Ning, but now there is no news at all, the emperor was already dissatisfied.

Knowing that one of his subjects praised Xie Changfeng so highly, and even said something cruel, in the hearts of the officials below, his Xie Changfeng's majesty was more important than the emperor himself!
Xie Changfeng, will he be the next King Ning?
The more the emperor thought about it, the more frightened he became, and his anger rose steadily.

But at this moment, the servant came in and announced that General Xie had arrived at the door and was waiting to see him.

"Let him in!" The emperor said angrily.

The queen mother glanced sideways at the emperor, and was very satisfied in her heart, the hook had been successfully set.

Xie Changfeng walked in with big strides, raised his chin, and walked in arrogantly. He didn't kneel down, but just cupped his fists to salute the emperor and the queen mother.

However, he was still a little surprised when he saw the Queen Mother.

After all, in this sensitive period of arresting King Ning, the emperor has no reason to meet the queen mother.

"The great general is so majestic, he didn't even kneel when he saw me and the queen mother." The emperor snorted angrily and said.

When Xie Changfeng heard this, his heart skipped a beat, and he immediately knelt down to salute, "It's my humble minister who was rude, please forgive me."

Seeing that the emperor didn't kneel, it was not the first day for him. The emperor never said anything before.

Even to show closeness, sometimes he was not allowed to see the ceremony, why did he suddenly attack today.

Moreover, when the emperor saw him before, he would call uncle in private, but just now the general was very angry, very angry.

Does the emperor blame him for not arresting King Ning yet?

As for Hou Zhongyi who was kneeling beside him and shivering, Xie Changfeng didn't even give him a look. This kind of small official who made mistakes didn't deserve his attention.

"Your Majesty, I have some clues about King Ning's whereabouts. In a few days, he will definitely be caught!" Xie Changfeng said bluntly, not caring about the Queen Mother who was at the side.

When the emperor heard this, he laughed mockingly,
"The general said the same to me a few days ago, and a few days later, the general still said that, without any progress.

I think the general is not dedicated enough, he is busy with other things, not to forget to establish his majesty, so that the people below will obey, and they will not take me and the royal family seriously! "

Xie Changfeng was confused when he heard the emperor's taunting and scolding, he didn't know why the emperor made such an attack.

But he was not too scared, after all, he was used to being relied on by the emperor, and he felt that he could handle the emperor, so he really didn't take the emperor too seriously.

"Your majesty, you have wronged this humble minister. King Ning was seriously injured and his life was dying. He must be hiding somewhere to recuperate. It is hard to find.

In the past few days, Wei Chen had no intention of doing anything else in order to arrest King Ning, but he didn't even return to the mansion. "

Xie Changfeng was quite aggrieved, he was exhausted recently.

When the queen mother heard Xie Changfeng's words, her heart tightened suddenly. She was so painful that she was almost suffocating. She tightly clenched the handkerchief in her hand so as not to lose her composure too much.
