Crowned with Pearls

   Chapter 702 One hundred and one · Dead

   Before you know it, the sky has turned from bright to dark again, and the dark clouds on the horizon are piled up in one place, making people feel breathless when they look at it.

   Eunuch Xia shuddered when he walked out the door, and stood for a while, before whispering a few words to his confidants who followed, and then stood under the porch and looked at the dark clouds in the sky.

   This time is really, really changed.

After a while, there was a slight noise in the room, and Eunuch Xia turned back in horror, and saw that Xiao Heng had withdrawn. The family was completely crushed under his feet and couldn't turn over. What kind of calculation must be involved in this, even a person like Eunuch Xia who was used to trying to figure out people's hearts was a little afraid. He hurriedly smiled and saluted: "Your Highness."

   Xiao Heng let out a faint hum, standing not far from Eunuch Xia, and stood on his feet in a trance.

   Was he worried about what Xu Shun would say to Emperor Yuanfeng? Eunuch Xia knew what to do, and became more and more quiet.

   He was trembling in his heart, and his confidant had carefully returned with a tray covered with a white cloth, and called out a godfather.

   Xiao Heng swept over, and Eunuch Xia immediately responded, smiled at Xiao Heng, and hurriedly took the things and knocked on the door in person.

  Xu Shun's head had been smashed, and he knelt on the ground groggyly, like a lion that had lost his territory and lost his territory, surrounded by sullen death.

  Emperor Yuanfeng saw Eunuch Xia come in, and finally didn't look at Xu Shun again: "If I had followed my previous temper, I would have chopped you down with my own hands, but today, I will give you one last honor."

  Xu Shun was like a concubine in mourning, his whole body trembling and his lips were white. Hearing Emperor Yuanfeng's words, he lowered his eyes and trembled and thanked him: "Thank you for your kindness."

   Emperor Yuanfeng had already strode away.

  Xu Shun stood up hard with one hand on the ground, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, tidied up his messy hair, and called Eunuch Xia kindly to Eunuch Xia, and said, "I want to see His Royal Highness the eldest grandson again."

Eunuch Xia didn't want to have anything to do with Xu Shun at this time, his eyelids jumped, and he immediately refused: "You better not embarrass our family, the sage is talking to His Highness now, where does His Highness have the time to see you? "

Xu Chuan smiled miserably, seeing that the white cloth covering the tray had been lifted, he stretched out his hand and smiled very lightly: "Daoxing mourned the year before, and I got to this point because my skills were inferior to others. That's it, that's it."

  Eunuch Xia looked at him with a frown, pretending he didn't hear anything.

   Outside, Emperor Yuanfeng had signaled Xiao Heng to follow, and went straight into the commander's signing room.

   Song Xiangyu originally wanted to follow, but after being glanced at by Emperor Yuanfeng, he stopped angrily and waited outside nervously.

   Emperor Yuanfeng sat by himself first, then raised his chin towards Xiao Heng, motioning Xiao Heng to sit down opposite him, and then took the previous testimony of Manager Xu to scan it.

   Then he raised his head and looked at Xiao Heng: "Why do you think he has something to do with your father's death?"

   Emperor Yuanfeng looked at him with complex and scrutiny in his eyes. After a while, he narrowed his eyes and called out to Xiao Heng: "Come closer."

   Xiao Heng obediently took a few steps forward, and when he reached Emperor Yuanfeng, he was in the eyes of Emperor Yuanfeng.

  The two looked at each other for a while, and Emperor Yuanfeng tapped on the table lightly, motioning Xiao Heng to answer: "Ah Heng, just based on the testimony of Manager Xu, did you decide that this matter is related to Xu Shun?"

Xiao Heng shook his head, under the gaze of Emperor Yuanfeng, he was still not impatient or impetuous, and his attitude was calm: "And Qi Yunxi, Qi Yunxi is the remnant of the demon empress, I have been thinking, since she can kill Princess Jingming, and then I have been so painstakingly suppressed and calculated, so my father's death will not be easy."

He raised his eyebrows as he said, "It happened that Manager Xu couldn't bear it, and seeing that Xu Shun was arrested and Xu Chong was dead, he took this incident as a bargaining chip for guilt and meritorious deeds, and couldn't wait to tell me, now that I know it , then you have to ask clearly."

   "Then are you clear now?" Xiao Heng's attitude made Emperor Yuanfeng feel uncomfortable and awkward. He was actually a little guilty.

   Now Xu Shunyi admits that he deliberately planned to frame the prince, which means that the prince was really wronged at that time.

   This made Emperor Yuanfeng somewhat unable to face it.

   The child who was loved by him and was raised by Empress Hu shortly after birth, in the final analysis, died at the hands of his father.

   So he heard that Xu Shun was going to continue talking to Xiao Heng, so he immediately appeared and interrupted the conversation.

   He was afraid that Xiao Heng would ask why he had made up his trust in the prince so easily back then, but he felt that Xiao Heng's attitude was too abnormal now.

   Does he really have no hatred at all?

"The Holy Master actually wanted to ask, why am I so calm?" Xiao Heng said bluntly, seeing that Emperor Yuanfeng's hand had stopped tapping on the table, he said in a deep voice, "Because I had just learned about my life experience. , already hated it."

   There was silence inside and outside the house, and Emperor Yuanfeng quietly sighed in this silence: "What do you hate?"

"Hate you." Xiao Heng spit out these two words calmly, and when Emperor Yuanfeng looked at him, he still did not evade: "I hate you why you demoted my parents to Shandong, why do you know my parents' After I was wronged, I didn't clear my parents' wrongdoing, so that even after I learned of my life experience, I was still afraid and was criticized by others."

   "Huh!" Emperor Yuanfeng sneered, patted the table and looked at Xiao Heng coldly: "You are bold! You dare to say that, do you think that I can really control you without limit?!"

   Emperor Yuanfeng was furious, Xiao Heng stared at him with clear eyes and asked, "What does the sage want me to do? Or, how does the sage want me to face it?"

   Emperor Yuanfeng's eyes were a little dodging.

   He vaguely felt that Xiao Heng's reaction was wrong, but Xiao Heng's words really made him speechless.

  Yes, what kind of answer is he expecting?

   Sitting silently for a while, Eunuch Xia's cautious and repressed report came from outside the house: "Your Majesty, everything has been handled properly."

   Emperor Yuanfeng breathed a sigh of relief, Eunuch Xia came too soon, and if he stayed for a while, he really didn't know how to step down.

"That's it." Emperor Yuanfeng coughed a few times and frowned at Xiao Heng: "I know the grievances in your heart, Ah Heng, I can't fully control many things, but this time, you did a good job. , it's just that the Xu family's crime can't be this, do you understand?"

   Xiao Heng nodded without any hesitation this time: "I understand."
