The reborn poisonous woman is hard to abandon

Chapter 346
Hearing the reminder from an official sitting across from Mr. Li, Mr. Li's face became even more sarcasm: "For the sake of a woman, the dignified General Dingguo even cast aside the important matters entrusted by the emperor. He really can't be flattered."

After saying these words, everyone in the room burst into laughter again.

Duke Xia saw everyone's expressions and raised his hand gently to signal them to be quiet.

"Although Mr. Li's words are somewhat reasonable, how do you know that he is not secretly investigating us under the guise of finding his wife's whereabouts? As the saying goes, the more unreliable the other party is, the less we can take it lightly."

Everyone was startled, looked at each other and then nodded: "What the lord said is true, I obey the orders."

Seeing this, Duke Xia nodded in satisfaction and was about to disperse the crowd when a man next to him suddenly said, "My lord, you just told us to be careful, but I have a question that I can't figure out. Knowing that taking in Duke Huai will make the emperor suspicious of us, why do we take him in?"

As if worried that Prince Xia would be angry, the official scrutinized him carefully, and seeing that he showed no signs of anger, he couldn't help but said, "It's not that I'm dissatisfied with King Huai, but that Huai Wang took Huo Xun's wife and did not hide her identity. If Huo Xun inquired carefully, he would inevitably find some clues."

As soon as this person spoke, all the other people in the room turned their attention to Prince Xia, waiting for his answer with inexplicable expressions, and some even echoed: "My lord, His Highness Prince Huai failed to force the palace, and there is no one who will ever make a comeback." Possibly. But you have taken in this person, I am really worried that he will have second thoughts about you!"

These officials are all confidantes who have followed King Xia all year round. Seeing that they were all so worried at this moment, King Xia's eyes flashed, but he didn't explain too much.

"My king naturally has my intention to take him in. When the time is right, I will let you know. But if you let me know who leaked the news, you must remember that I have thousands of means waiting here. he."

Xiajun King had a smile on his face, but his voice was cold to the bone. Goosebumps appeared on everyone's body, and no one dared to speak out to object, even the person who raised the question lowered his head and dared not speak.

Scanning everyone's faces, a look of satisfaction flashed in Xia Junwang's eyes, and he got up and left immediately.

The night is like water, a full moon hangs high above the sky, and the silver-white brilliance covers the entire Hou Mansion. Looking at it, it makes people feel melancholy for no reason.

At this moment, there was a clear Xun sound from nowhere, the sound was like weeping, like a sad man expressing his sorrow, or like an infatuated woman expressing her thoughts.

Hearing the voice, King Xia paused, and immediately looked towards the courtyard on the west side.

Under the moonlight, the impatience on King Xia's face was very clear, and he was about to walk towards the west courtyard without even thinking about it.However, he took a few steps forward and saw a drunken figure appearing at the intersection not far away, and immediately changed direction to follow.
"Ma'am, it's more serious, you should rest earlier."

Seeing Xiao Ruan standing in front of the window with her head propped up, Tweety Er didn't intend to rest, so she immediately stepped forward to persuade her.

Xiao Ruan didn't even move, turned his back to Cui'er and said softly: "Do you know where the sound of the xun came from?"

"Ma'am, do you think I'm disturbing you?"

Looking out of the window following Xiao Ruan's line of sight, it seemed that Cui'er was also affected by the sadness in the sound of the xun, and she explained to Xiao Ruan, "It's the young master blowing the xun. When the young master's mother passed away, It was the night of the full moon, and from then on, every night of the full moon, the eldest and young master would play a song as a memory."

It turned out to be the case.

No wonder the sound of the xun sounded so sad.

A flash of realization flashed across Xiao Ruan's face, and he was about to go back to bed to rest, when suddenly there was a violent slapping sound from the door.

"Ruan'er...you come out...I know you are in the room...you come out for me!"

Hearing someone calling her name outside, Xiao Ruan couldn't help but frowned and looked at Cui'er, wondering who would come to her room and yell at her so late?

Tweety has been taking care of Xiao Ruan's food and daily life for more than a month, and no one has dared to come here to act wildly.

But when she heard the knocking on the door getting louder and louder, she was about to call for someone, when she suddenly showed an expression of disbelief: "This... slave girl, why does the voice outside sound like the voice of His Highness Duke Huai?"

This is the time, in the heavily guarded Xiajun Palace, it seems that there is really no one else to be found except Zhao Yan.

It's just that at this time, Zhao Yan yelled that he had to see her, which made people feel that it was not a good thing.

A dark color flashed in his eyes, Xiao Ruan walked to the door of the room and only heard a "bang", and saw Zhao Yan barging in from the outside.

Accompanied by a pungent smell of wine, Zhao Yan staggered towards Xiao Ruan, holding a wine jar in his hand.

"You, get out!"

Zhao Yan pointed at the door and yelled at Tweety, signaling her to leave.

Xiao Ruan didn't know how much Zhao Yan drank. Hearing his ambiguous voice, he knew that he was very drunk at the moment, so he signaled Tweety not to leave with his eyes.

There was a flash of hesitation on Tweety's face, before making a decision, Zhao Yan couldn't wait, so he reached out, grabbed her clothes and pushed her out of the room.

Seeing this, Xiao Ruan was shocked, she was about to escape from the room, but the door was slammed shut by Zhao Yan.

The loud "bang" was particularly harsh at night, Xiao Ruan couldn't help but shrink back when he saw this: "Zhao Yan, what do you want to do? You drank too much!"

"Ruan'er, do you think I drank too much?"

Zhao Yan looked at the wine jar in his hand, and suddenly there was a wry smile on his face. He let go of his fingers and threw the wine jar to the ground: "You all think that I drink too much, but I know that I am more drunk than ever at this moment. All sober."

Xiao Ruan was forced to the corner and had no choice but to say: "As long as you listen to me, I believe you didn't drink too much."

"of course can!"

Zhao Yan sprayed the alcohol on Xiao Ruan's face, raised his hand to support the wall behind her, and said vaguely: "Ruan'er, you are the only king left now, I will listen to whatever you say .”

Xiao Ruan was almost retching from the smell of alcohol on his body, and subconsciously pushed him: "Stay away from me..."

"No, I can't leave you!"

Before Xiao Ruan's voice fell, Zhao Yan suddenly shook his head and hugged her tightly: "Ruan'er, this king has nothing left, you can't leave me."

Zhao Yan's hands were too strong, and Xiao Ruan was strangled by him, almost out of breath, and was about to push him away with all his strength, when he suddenly felt a damp heat coming from his neck.

Her body froze, she raised her hand to wipe it, and suddenly found that what fell from her neck turned out to be a puddle of water.

Did Zhao Yan actually cry?

Xiao Ruan was very surprised, and suddenly thought that the other party had repeatedly said that there was nothing left, thinking that the court had discovered their traces, and finally couldn't help but said: "You, how come you have nothing?"

Zhao Yan hugged Xiao Ruan vigorously, as if he wanted to get something from her. After a long time, he made a hoarse whisper on Xiao Ruan's neck.

"The queen mother has been executed by the emperor."

After saying that, Xiao Ruan's neck was hot and humid again, and she instantly understood that the reason why Zhao Yan drank like this today was actually the empress's reason.

"Queen, did she...didn't escape?"

Xiao Ruan didn't know what happened on the night of Zhao Yan's mutiny, but thinking that he had never seen the queen during the escape with Zhao Yan, he guessed that the queen might have fallen into the hands of the emperor.

"It's all my fault. If I hadn't trusted Huo Xun too much, how could I have failed in forcing the palace? How could my mother have been killed!"

As if thinking of something, Zhao Yan raised his voice suddenly, and suddenly pressed Xiao Ruan's shoulder, staring straight at her eyes: "Ruan Er, tell me, what is this king inferior to Zhao Han? Why did the father refuse to pass on the throne to me! Tell me!"

Zhao Yan stared at the red eyes, his face was full of unwillingness, his whole body was like a madman, and he couldn't stop shaking Xiao Ruan.

"You...you let me go!"

Xiao Ruan was dizzy from being shaken by him, tried his best but couldn't break free, so he said angrily: "You are unkind, cold-blooded and ruthless, you can even kill your own father for the sake of the throne, why does the emperor take the throne? pass it to you!"

Xiao Ruan's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Zhao Yan's head suddenly,
He was stunned for a moment, suddenly grabbed Xiao Ruan's neck, and yelled at her: "They forced me! If the father didn't want to pass on the throne to me, why should I force the palace! And you! Didn't the king know that you and Huo Xun conspired to deceive me on purpose? You deceived me first, and you forced me to do everything!"

"We forced you? Zhao Yan, think about it carefully. If you and the queen hadn't designed to intimidate us, why should we fight against you? You are unwilling to accept the status given to you by the emperor, and you are too ambitious. How can you blame others? !"

Xiao Ruan thought of the many misunderstandings she had with Huo Xun at the beginning, so she roared at Zhao Yan without thinking, and her sharp voice almost overwhelmed Zhao Yan.However, at this moment, a black shadow flashed in the corner of her eyes, and Zhao Yan slapped her on the face.

"It was your unreasonable ambition that killed the queen! You killed all the soldiers who worked for you. People like you don't deserve to live in this world!"

When the burning pain came, Xiao Ruan covered her cheeks and looked directly at Zhao Yan's flushed eyes.There was no flinch in her eyes, but she didn't know that Zhao Yan's head was mostly awake because of her roar.

From the moment the queen covered him to stay in the palace, he knew what kind of ending was waiting for the queen, but when the news came, he still felt sad for a long time.

He was already in a bad mood, and when he heard someone blowing the xun in the Prince Xia's mansion, he couldn't help but drink a few more glasses to relieve his sorrow.

And then he came to Xiao Ruan's room after Jiu Jin, he wanted to get some comfort from her, but he didn't want to incur a lot of scolding.

The eyes of the woman in front of him were full of disgust. At this moment, Zhao Yan suddenly felt that he was humiliating himself.
