Chapter 341 Death to face
"Princess..." Hong Feng didn't expect that Ruan Zhuqi would suddenly think of this matter. She had never mentioned it before, and Hong Feng thought Ruan Zhuqi didn't care.It turned out that she just kept it all in her heart, the demon concubine who harmed the country, anyone would feel sad to be given this title, let alone someone like Ruan Zhuqi who desperately wanted face.

"Princess, we're here!" Beiming yelled from outside and opened the car curtain.Ruan Zhuqi turned her face and looked out. The Princess's mansion in the heavy snow had a feeling of vicissitudes.Ruan Zhuqi didn't know whether this kind of vicissitudes was brought about by the former Dingguo mansion, or because of the mixed feelings in her heart at the moment.

The door of the eldest princess mansion opened with a creak, and the snow on the top of the door rustled down on Ruan Zhuqi because the door was moved.The servant who opened the door was so frightened that he knelt down on the ground, fearing that Ruan Zhuqi would be upset and his head would be moved.

But Ruan Zhuqi was surprisingly quiet, as if she didn't notice.Ruan Wenyong once said that the human heart is the most difficult thing to grasp, and now Ruan Zhuqi understands it.But this kind of understanding is what Ruan Wenyong told her by using himself as an example.

In the past two days, He Quan brought people from the palace to deliver New Year's goods in an endless stream, and Ruan Zhuqi felt a little bit of New Year's breath.In the past, he didn't need to worry about the new year. This year, because he opened the mansion outside, Ruan Zhuqi didn't have a say in the purchase matters, and the servants below didn't dare to act rashly.

The result is that on New Year's Eve, Ruan Zhuqi can only rely on the things Ruan Wenyong sent to decorate the mansion, which is considered appropriate.Fortunately, Ruan Zhuqi is not interested in taking care of this now.As quiet as the Princess's Mansion, there is the Anlehou Mansion behind it.

After roughly watching Hongfeng busy all morning, Ruan Zhuqi made a pot of tea by herself in the afternoon and sat quietly in the backyard.There is no wall to block the line of sight, and the person you want to see is still invisible.

When the tea was changed to the third time, Bai Mei suddenly jumped over from the opposite side, seeing Ruan Zhuqi was very surprised, and said: "Princess, why are you still at the house!"

Ruan Zhuqi took a sip of tea slowly, with a wry smile on the corner of her mouth.Where can she go if she is not at home?The person in the palace has become so scary now; but this magnificent princess mansion was also given to her by that person.Ruan Zhuqi looked around, and found that she had nothing that Ruan Wenyong hadn't given her.Even his own life was saved by Ruan Wenyong.

"Princess, on New Year's Eve, shouldn't the princess go to the palace to reunite with Emperor Yong?" Bai Mei's face never concealed anything, and the anxious look could be seen at a glance.

"I don't want to enter the palace." Ruan Zhuqi replied indifferently, avoiding Bai Mei and looking at Anlehou's mansion.I don't know if he will watch the New Year alone tonight?Or... Ruan Zhuqi smiled bitterly, afraid that Xuan Shidu would spend the whole night guarding Feng Xiaolian's portrait.

"Princess!" Bai Mei hurriedly pulled Ruan Zhuqi up from her seat, and said, "Princess, hurry up and enter the palace! Early this morning, An Lehou received the imperial decree from Emperor Yong, and went to the palace to face the saint!"

Ruan Zhuqi's heart moved slightly, and soon calmed down again, saying: "It's just going to the palace to meet the saint, what's the big deal. It's the Chinese New Year, Fourth Uncle won't say anything to Xuan Shidu at this time. Relax, He'll be back in a while."

"Princess confused! Some time ago, An Lehou refused Yonghuang's summon due to illness. This time, Yonghuang directly issued an imperial edict. How could it be normal! Princess, hurry up and enter the palace!" Bai Mei was impatient and declared ten degrees It has been a while since he entered the palace, and he refused to let Bai Mei and Ziying follow him.

Ruan Zhuqi thought about it, some time ago Ruan Wenyong summoned Xuan Shidu, the only possibility was because of Xuan Shidu's cloak.According to Fourth Uncle's temper, I'm afraid he will humiliate Xuan Shidu again.Ruan Zhuqi immediately asked, "When did An Lehou enter the palace?"

"It's been an hour!"

It has indeed been an hour since Xuan Shidu entered the palace, but at this hour, Ruan Wenyong just left him in the plum garden to blow the cold wind.After an hour and a quarter of an hour, Ruan Wenyong finally appeared.Xuan Shidu secretly rubbed his frozen hands and feet, and reluctantly saluted Ruan Wenyong.

Ruan Wenyong glanced at Xuan Shidu indifferently, and looked sideways slightly.He Quan understood immediately and retreated with a group of palace servants.

"I waited for more than half a month, and An Lehou finally recovered from this illness." Ruan Wenyong raised the jug, poured two glasses of wine, and pushed one of them in front of Xuan Shidu.

Xuan Shidu smiled, and said: "Thanks to Your Majesty, it's finally all over before the Chinese New Year. I don't know why Your Majesty set up this grand banquet in this icy world?"

"Hongmen Banquet? Ho!" Ruan Wenyong looked away disdainfully, and raised his chin slightly, "Are you worthy of letting me hold a Hongmen Banquet in person? Gao Wei, don't praise yourself too much!"

Xuan Shidu smiled lightly, drank the wine that Ruan Wenyong had poured, and turned the glass upside down to show that there was not a single drop left. "In this way, it is a great honor for His Majesty to personally pour wine for this humble official!"

Hearing this, Ruan Wenyong stared at Xuan Shidu coldly.Looking at each other, the coldness in Ruan Wenyong's eyes can't affect Xuan Shidu's smiling pupils at all.

"I know where Gao Heng is, and I also know that Yan Qianao and those two trash from the Qi family are guarding your only bloodline." Ruan Wenyong said straight to the point, "It's easy for me to kill Gao Heng. If you are killed, your Northern Qi Gao family will be considered dead by then."

"Since your majesty has set out the conditions, why don't you directly say how your majesty wants to deal with the humble minister?" Xuan Shidu's eyes did not show the slightest panic. He had already expected that with Ruan Wenyong's strength, he would find Qian Ao and Gao Heng. It's a matter of time.

"You're a smart person, I won't talk nonsense to you anymore." Ruan Wenyong slowly sipped a glass of wine into his mouth, and continued, "As long as you appear in front of Xu'er for a day, Xu'er will never let you go." You. But I also know that I can't kill you. If I kill you, Xu'er will hate me for the rest of my life. Therefore, Gao Wei, take your son and disappear in Xu'er's life forever!"

"The conditions offered by Your Majesty are really good, but how can I believe that Your Majesty will really let me and Gouzi go?" Xuan Shidu smiled meaninglessly, watching the surrounding movement from the corner of his eyes from time to time, " Besides, I believe that the dog is born of the eldest princess, even if His Majesty is worried about the dog, he will not take his life."

"Gao Wei, don't think that you can guess what I'm thinking!" Ruan Wenyong flipped the table angrily, he had endured Xuan Shidu for too long.Even this time when he was summoned, Ruan Wenyong spent a lot of effort to calmly speak a word or two to Xuan Shidu.But Xuan Shidu tried to challenge his limit again and again.

"Haha! You destroyed my country, killed my whole family, and let me humbly treat you as an 'An Lehou'! Ruan Wenyong, it was you who bullied me first, so I can't blame me for being rude to you! Xuan Shidu suddenly pulled out a dagger from his cuff, and stabbed Ruan Wenyong brightly.

Ruan Wenyong narrowed his eyes, and easily snatched the dagger, and instead pressed it against Xuan Shidu's chest. "Looking for death!" Ruan Wenyong cursed angrily, but caught a glimpse of a weird smile on the corner of Xuan Shidu's mouth.

"Do you know? If you kill me, you will never expect Ruan Zhuqi to forgive you for the rest of your life!" Ruan Wenyong was startled, and Xuan Shidu pushed the dagger into his body an inch.

"don't want……"

Ruan Wenyong hastily pulled out his dagger, and when he turned around, he met Ruan Zhuqi's astonished eyes.

"Xuan Shidu! Xuan Shidu!" Ruan Zhuqi frantically pressed Xuan Shidu's wound to stop the bleeding, "Come here! Come here! Xuan the imperial physician!"

"Eldest princess, no need!" Xuan Shidu held Ruan Zhuqi's hand and shook his head, "The king wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die."

"You're talking nonsense! I didn't intend to kill you!" Ruan Wenyong roared angrily, but Gao Wei'er was tricked by Gao Wei!
Xuan Shidu pursed his lips tightly, and his lips had gradually turned pale. "Why! Why!" Ruan Zhuqi looked at Ruan Wenyong in disbelief, "You have already obtained Beiqi! All his subjects are now surrendering under your feet! Even he himself is just lingering on your majesty! Even if Is that so, are you also unwilling to let him live?"

"I told you, I didn't kill him! He's lying to you!" Ruan Wenyong was almost insane, glaring at Xuan Shidu who was showing complacency in the corner of his eyes.

"He lied to me? Is what I saw with my own eyes a lie?" Ruan Zhuqi questioned.

"You don't believe me?" Ruan Wenyong felt powerless to defend, "It's easy for me to kill him, why should I lure him into the palace and do it myself? Xu'er, most of the time, what you see with your own eyes is not always the same. It's the truth of the matter!"

"Why Xuan Shidu was brought into the palace, only fourth uncle knows! What he saw with his own eyes may not be the truth, but what fourth uncle told me is not the truth! I don't believe you, I believe him!" Ruan Zhuqi The resentment in his eyes pierced into Ruan Wenyong's heart, "I told you, if you want his life, kill me first!"

During the confrontation between the uncle and nephew, He Quan had already heard Ruan Zhuqi's call and called the imperial physician over.Seeing the scene in front of him, especially Ruan Wenyong was still holding a dagger in his hand, he didn't know whether he should let the imperial physician diagnose and treat Xuan Shidu.

Seeing this, Ruan Zhuqi sneered, and said, "Your Majesty, are you going to watch An Lehou bleed to death?" Ruan Zhuqi gently put down Xuan Shidu, took a step in front of Ruan Wenyong, and put the dagger in Ruan Wenyong's hand against her Chest: "Your Majesty, if you don't save him, kill me first!"

Ruan Zhuqi held the sharp end of the dagger and approached him bit by bit. Ruan Wenyong yanked the dagger back and drew a bloody gash on Ruan Zhuqi's hand.Blood dripped on the white snow, Ruan Wenyong clenched his fists and said angrily, "Save me!"

He Quan breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that fortunately he came prepared and brought two imperial physicians.As soon as Ruan Wenyong opened his mouth, one of the imperial physicians took out gauze and other items and pressed it on Xuan Shidu's wound, and the other, under He Quan's instructions, approached Ruan Zhuqi cautiously.

"Your Highness, please ask Rong Weichen to bandage His Highness's wound." The imperial physician who was called to Ruan Zhuqi's side thought to himself that it was unlucky, but Ruan Zhuqi gave him a cold look. "Go and see An Lehou's injury first!" Ruan Zhuqi put her hands behind her back to prevent the imperial doctor from touching her.

A quarter of an hour passed, and Xuan Shidu's chest wound was bandaged.The two imperial physicians glanced at Ruan Zhuqi's bleeding wound, with puzzled expressions on their faces.Although the wound is a bit big, but ordinary people have been bleeding for so long, and it should stop by itself.
