Hou Ye's palm heart is a black lotus

Chapter 109 He's Nervous (Part [-])
Among the ministers, a middle-aged man walked out quickly with a shocked and uneasy expression.

"Wei Chen is here!"

It is Zhao Hanguang, the Minister of Guanglu Temple today.

Shen Yanchuan's expression was indifferent, and the chill between his brows and eyes was looming: "This is how you organize this polo match?"

Zhao Hanguang's back was covered in cold sweat. It was clearly midsummer, but he felt his limbs were icy cold.

"Wei Chen, Wei Chen don't know what is going on—"

boom--!
Xiao Chengxuan shattered the teacup in his hand, his face was cold: "How did you do it!? If you hurt the eldest princess, how many lives will you bear!"

Zhao Hanguang fell to his knees with a "plop".

"Your Highness, Second Prince, I have neglected my duty!"

There was a clatter of kneeling behind him, all officials from Guanglu Temple.

With such a big incident happening at the palace banquet, they are afraid that they will be unable to eat and walk away!

Han Tong also knelt down, and then quickly glanced at Han Yao, and after confirming that he was safe and sound, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The atmosphere was cold and solemn.

The eldest princess has a detached status, and this is the first time she has shown herself since she fell ill some time ago, who knew that such a big trouble would happen!

Beads of sweat continued to ooze from Zhao Hanguang's forehead, and his heart seemed to be suspended high by something.

He couldn't figure it out, all the processes of the polo game would go through several checkpoints, and these horses were carefully selected, and there had never been such an accident on weekdays, why today——

Xiao Chengxuan reprimanded coldly: "I will give you three days to thoroughly investigate this matter! After three days, you must give the eldest princess and this king an explanation!"

Zhao Hanguang felt a little relieved, but Han Tong frowned.

As soon as these words came out, it meant that the second prince still planned to give Zhao Hanguang a chance. Three days was not too long, and even if the truth could not be found out, it would not be a problem to bring out a scapegoat.

After such a big disturbance, does the second prince still want to protect Zhao Hanguang...

Countless thoughts flashed through Han Tong's mind, and then he straightened up: "Second Highness, I have something to say, I don't know—"

Zhao Hanguang immediately became alert when he heard Han Tong's voice, and turned his head suspiciously.

However, before Han Tong could finish his words, he heard a sound of transmission.

"The emperor is here—!"

Ye Chutang finally raised his eyes and looked forward, and saw a mighty procession of guards of honor approaching, yellow umbrellas embroidered with nine-clawed golden dragons, followed by yellow fans and red fans, and the palace people lined up with noble and grand specifications.

The one walking in the front is none other than Xiao Zhen, Emperor Wu of the Shang Dynasty.

Emperor Mu Wu was born as a military general. Even though he was over fifty, he was still tall and imposing.

Behind him was a slender woman in gorgeous palace attire. She was just a figure, but she did not hide her charm.

It should be the noble concubine Jiang Qingmei mentioned by Princess Qinyang just now.

Sure enough, Ye Chutang then heard the palace servants singing: "If the imperial concubine arrives—!"

Ye Chutang stood up and saluted with everyone.

"See the emperor! Long live the emperor! Thousand years for the imperial concubine!"

……

Emperor Mu Wu walked forward, came to the eldest princess, and supported her.

"Miss Huang's health is important, why do you need these vain rituals?"

The eldest princess smiled and patted his arm: "Your Majesty is worrying too much, how can I be so weak? Isn't this good?"

Emperor Mu Wu still insisted on supporting her to sit down, and said in a helpless tone, "Sister Huang, stop joking with me."

Concubine Ru at the side said softly: "You don't know, His Majesty has been worried about you all this time. He can't sleep well at night and has been thinking about you all the time. You should treat him as considerate and cherish your body."

The words are soft and beautiful, and extremely soothing.

No wonder it has been favored for many years.

Concubine Ru's beautiful willow eyebrows slightly frowned, and said again: "Besides, I heard that you were frightened here just now, His Majesty was very worried, and immediately came here as quickly as possible."

Mentioning this episode, Emperor Mu Wu's expression quickly turned cold.

He turned to look at Zhao Hanguang, and asked in a deep voice: "Zhao Hanguang! I specifically told you to hold this polo match well. This is what you spent months preparing for and presented to me?! I don't think you want to take the position of Secretary of Guanglu Temple anymore!"

Zhao Hanguang's lips turned pale instantly, and he kowtowed heavily.

"Your Majesty, forgive me! My minister, my minister——"

Seeing that Emperor Mu Wu was extremely angry, Xiao Chengxuan's eyes flickered, and he stepped forward to persuade him: "Father, this incident happened suddenly, and it is not possible to determine who is at fault for a while. Zhao Hanguang is in charge of the whole process of this polo match. If he is asked to investigate, it should be the fastest."

Emperor Mu Wu frowned tightly and did not let go.

"Your Highness is right." Shen Yanchuan on the side also suddenly said, "Master Zhao has always been thoughtful and rigorous in his work. According to his temperament, he would even personally take care of the selection of these horses. It is said that such a situation would not happen. There may be some misunderstanding here, or it may be just an accident. Think twice, Your Majesty."

Surprise flashed across Xiao Chengxuan's eyes, he never thought that Shen Yanchuan would speak for Zhao Hanguang.

But after thinking about it, it seems normal. Zhao Hanguang has a good reputation and has some contacts with the Dingbei Hou Mansion. Shen Yanchuan will stand up at this time, and—

Sure enough, after hearing Shen Yanchuan's words, Emperor Mu Wu paused for a moment, as if thinking about something.

However, unexpectedly, the next moment, Emperor Mu Wu raised his voice and shouted: "Feng Zhang!"

Feng Zhang, who has been pretending to be a transparent person since coming here, was stunned for a moment when he heard his name, but he reacted quickly, and immediately stepped forward: "My minister is here."

"Go and see what's going on with that horse!" Emperor Mu Wu ordered with a sullen face.

Feng Zhang was astonished, and immediately guessed what Emperor Mu Wu was thinking—he thought there was something wrong with that horse! ?

The others were also shocked, they didn't expect Emperor Mu Wu to investigate on the spot.

Feng Zhang cupped his fists: "Yes!"

After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the sidelines. Fortunately, the horse had not had time to be led away.

Zhao Hanguang's heart was already half cold.

His Majesty doesn't intend to ask him to investigate, because he obviously doesn't trust him anymore!
This this……

Xiao Chengxuan's expression froze for a moment, but soon returned to normal.

It's no problem for the father to check these things, and it's clear on the spot, which can just wash away those doubts on Zhao Hanguang's body.

But even so, today the eldest princess is involved, a severe punishment is unavoidable...

Feng Zhang quickly came to the horse, pulled the rein, and began to check.

It was extremely quiet.

Suddenly, Ye Chutang narrowed his eyes slightly.

She tilted her head and raised her eyebrows at Ye Yunfeng who just came back.

—Did you notice what was wrong with that horse just now?
Ye Yunfeng shook his head unobtrusively, with some doubts in his eyes.

Why did sister ask such a question suddenly?
Ye Chutang withdrew his gaze, and his peripheral vision swept across Han Yao very lightly.

He lowered his head, his palms clenched into fists.

—He is tense.
