The uninhibited concubine who loves his wife

Chapter 166 The Emperor Tells the Story of King Cheng (1)
Looking at her natural smile and listening to her peaceful words, Xia Lixun was inexplicably stunned.After he himself realized that he lost his composure, a coolness flashed in his eyes, and he even asked in disbelief, "What you said is true?"

He didn't know why he was nervous, when he heard her say the word "husband and wife" so calmly, he suddenly felt inexplicably depressed.

A self-deprecating smile appeared on the corner of Liu Xuelan's mouth: "Of course it's true, do you think I'm going to provoke you with marriage? Heh! I know you don't like me, so can I provoke you?"

"Why do you want to get married?" As soon as these words came out, even Xia Lixun himself didn't realize that something was wrong with him.

Liu Xuelan sighed, and her eyes fell on other places, so that people couldn't see what she was thinking, but said calmly: "I am 19 years old, if I don't find another man to marry, I will become an old girl. Besides Old man Liu said that the man is not bad, although he is two years younger than me, but I think it's nothing, as long as he is a good person. And with the pampering and love that old man Liu has shown me, I believe that the man he is looking for will not be wrong .”

Hearing this, Xia Lixun only felt an inexplicable chill all over his body, and he didn't even know when his hands on his knees were clenched into fists.Looking at the woman's side face coldly, this face hasn't changed much after looking at it for seven years, it still looks like a little girl, if she doesn't say it, people will never think that she is already nineteen .

Suddenly, he raised his head and smiled, and when he looked at Liu Xuelan again, his eyes were full of sarcasm: "I didn't expect you to be such a flirtatious woman? One day I can confess my love for me, and the next day I can imagine marrying other men." Enai. Liu Xuelan, this king really missed you."

Liu Xuelan turned her head, her big and round eyes gleamed with a clear and peaceful luster, as calm as a lake without wind blowing, this was the first time Xia Lixun saw such a calm side of her, and her heart was inexplicably shocked For a moment.

"Xia, no matter whether you are dead or alive this time, it's the last time we meet, so let's be polite? I've been chasing you for seven years, and I'm already tired. It's time to rest. Could it be that you still Want me to chase you forever? I'm not that stupid. You should be happy if I don't pester you in the future, so why bother to mock me now? "

Hearing this, Xia Lixun's face suddenly darkened, and he reached out and grabbed her wrist.

For a moment, both of them were a little stunned.

Looking at the big hand on his wrist, even in this day's prison, it is so clean that it dazzles the eye.

With a flash of light in her eyes, Liu Xuelan pulled out her wrist unobtrusively, stood up calmly and walked towards the prison door——

"Take care, I've already begged old man Liu to speak for you in the hall. You also know that I'm not very capable, that's all I can do to help you." After she finished speaking behind her back, she left the dungeon without looking back.

"..." Until the person left for a long time, Xia Lixun was still staring blankly at the direction of the prison door, unable to look back for a long time.My heart seemed to be empty suddenly, I wanted to raise my hands to cover it, but found that my hands were weak.

I don't know how long it took until another eunuch led two young eunuchs to appear outside the cell door, and Xia Lixun came back to his senses.

The person who came was Prince Xia Yunhao's personal servant, named Sander.

Seeing his arrival, Xia Lixun slightly twitched the corners of his mouth, and then glanced at the food boxes in the hands of the two young eunuchs, the smile on his mouth was even more ironic.

"Hey, who has been here?" Sander saw the food basket at Xia Lixun's feet, and exclaimed suspiciously, his sharp voice obviously showed a little nervousness.

Xia Lixun looked at him sarcastically: "Isn't it sent by the crown prince? I didn't expect the emperor to treat me so well. I was afraid that I would not be used to eating in prison, so I kept sending people to deliver food to me."

Sander's face was a little puzzled, but also a little ugly.His Royal Highness only told him to deliver food to King Fengde!

Just as he was about to call the jailer over to ask who had been there, the man sitting on the ground suddenly said: "Eunuch Sang, please go back. The king has already used the food, so don't bother Eunuch Sang any more." , He raised his eyebrows and pointed his eyes at something sent by a woman at his feet.

Sander's face turned cold: "Since King Fengde has already used the food, the servant will not bother King Fengde. Tomorrow the servant will come to deliver food to King Fengde." After finishing speaking, he greeted the two little ones coldly. Eunuch, "Take everything back."

The three of them walked towards the gate of the prison. Sand went to the jailer angrily to ask about the situation, but a jailer suddenly told him: "Eunuch Sang, what a coincidence, the brother who just guarded King Fengde died suddenly for some reason. , but it frightened us, and he died after a good look."

Sander was shocked: "Do you know how he died?"

The jailer shook his head: "You guys don't know, no, just sent someone to take away the corpse. Seeing that there is not enough manpower, the Ministry of Punishment specially sent the younger one to take over temporarily."

Sander frowned, didn't say anything, and left in a hurry after only explaining a few words.

This matter is too strange, he must report it to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

I don't know who was so bold that he dared to break into the sky prison without authorization to deliver food to King Fengde, and the jailer died inexplicably.Maybe it was the person who delivered the food who killed him.This is something that His Royal Highness must send someone over to investigate clearly.

And Xia Lixun, who watched Sander leave, slowly withdrew his gaze, his eyes fell on his feet, and glanced at the food that hadn't moved, the arrogance in his eyes gradually subsided, and suddenly became complicated.

After an unknown amount of time, the cell door was suddenly opened, and a man dressed as a prison guard walked in, knelt on the ground with one knee, bowed his head and said respectfully: "My lord, I'm late, please forgive me."

"Get up." Xia Lixun raised his jaw slightly, and stared at the man in front of him coldly and arrogantly.

The man stood up in response, clasped his fists and said: "Report to the prince, everything has been arranged properly, please leave the prison quickly."

"Yeah." Xia Lixun stood up slowly, with his hands behind his back and his chest straight, walked past him coldly and arrogantly, and when he reached the prison door, he suddenly turned his head, and a hint of sternness suddenly appeared in his slightly narrowed eyes: "Be quick, don't forget that there is still the Ministry of Criminal Justice. After tonight, if the prison and the Ministry of Criminal Justice are not cleaned up, you will come to see the king yourself tomorrow!"

After finishing speaking, he swaggered out of the cell door with his jaw raised.

Overnight, the capital of Shu Xia Kingdom was on fire.

No, it should be regarded as a fire in the prison and the Ministry of punishment. I don’t know where the wildfire came from, but it burned the prison and the Ministry of punishment into two ruins overnight——

When the ministers of the court heard the news and rushed over, the two fires were soaring into the sky, not to mention putting out the fire, just looking at the raging sea of ​​flames was enough to make people shiver down the spine and retreat three points.
