Chapter 354 Green Tea is the real tea
Xiao Heng did not leave his house, but Li Yunshu was not idle.
The 200,000-strong army of the Emperor of Dongling was divided into small groups and hidden in the mountains and valleys, waiting for the war between Da Yin and Da Shuo to start before they launched an attack.
The Emperor sent a gift to Xiao Heng, and Xiao Heng naturally went to thank him.
Because the Emperor favored Xiao Heng, the Empress came to remind the Emperor in time that their son, the Prince of Dongling, was now living in the open air and storing troops in the mountains.
But the Emperor only said one sentence, and the Crown Prince should naturally lead the way.
Especially when he heard that Xiao Heng wanted to see him, the Emperor of Dongling was very happy and impatiently asked the Empress to leave.
The Empress rushed out in anger and ran into Xiao Heng who was coming towards her.
How could the Queen bear to be outdone by a wild child who fends for himself? She raised her hand and slapped Xiao Heng hard. She
shouted angrily: "You lowly thing, don't try to climb over me!"
Seeing that there was no one around, Xiao Heng no longer hid the murderous intent in his eyes. He whispered: "The Queen is wrong. I will not climb over you. If I have to climb, I will climb over the prince!"
The Queen's anger was aroused. She shouted hysterically: "I know you have bad intentions. You can deceive the emperor but you can't deceive me. Come on, drag this ambitious thing away!"
The Emperor had heard the news a long time ago and sent the eunuch beside him to rescue him.
Hearing the footsteps, Xiao Heng covered his face and said in fear: "Mother, I just want to go to the palace to thank my father, and I have no intention of competing with the prince. I am alone and helpless, and I just want to stay alive. I have no intention of crossing
the line!" "Don't pretend in front of me, you are just like your foxy mother, you use these dirty tricks to confuse the emperor. What are you still standing there for, drag him away!" The queen was really angry and had no idea that the eunuch beside the emperor was already behind her.
The eunuch said respectfully, "Your Majesty, I'm here on the orders of the Emperor to bring the Second Prince to an audience!"
How could the Empress take a mere eunuch seriously? She said without even raising her eyelids, "Xiao Heng is disrespectful to his elders and has offended me. I'm going to take him back and give him a slight punishment. You can report this to the Emperor!" "Your Majesty,
the Emperor is waiting there. It's better to let the Second Prince go and pay his respects to the Emperor, and then go to the Empress to receive punishment!" The eunuch refused to give in.
The personal nanny beside the Queen winked at her, and the Queen regained some of her rationality and said coldly: "In that case, let's deal with him another day!" After that, she glared at Xiao Heng fiercely, then walked away.
Xiao Heng shuddered with fear.
Naturally, all this was seen by the Grand Eunuch.
The Queen's nanny carefully reminded: "Your Majesty, you were too impulsive today. I think the second prince deliberately angered you!"
The Queen didn't care at all: "He doesn't have that brain yet, but I was so angry that I bumped into the muzzle of the gun. But when I looked at him, I thought of his mother. Let's find a chance to get rid of him!"
The nanny shook her head and said nothing more.
Here, Xiao Heng had already come before the emperor under the guidance of the Grand Eunuch.
"Your son pays homage to your father! "Xiaohun's voice was trembling.
There was a slap mark on the face that looked like his mother, and the face was swollen.
The emperor felt a little distressed: "What's wrong with your face?"
"It was because your son was too confused and bumped into the wall!" Xiao Heng was still shrinking timidly.
The emperor was furious: "Remember, you are my son, the second prince of Dongling. After being beaten, do you still want to speak for others?"
"Father, calm down, it was your son who offended the Empress, and the Empress rewarded me!"
Seeing Xiao Heng's useless appearance, the emperor really wanted to slap him on the other side of his face.
"Look at how useless you are! "The emperor was furious.
"Father, please calm down. When we were young, the Empress often went to the cold palace to beat me and my mother. Even my sister was not spared. I think the Empress is used to it, and I am used to it too!" Xiao Heng was so nervous that he was incoherent.
"What? She used to go to the cold palace to cause trouble for you, this vicious woman!" The emperor put his hand heavily on the armrest of the chair.
Xiao Heng sneered in his heart. She was pretending so well, as if he knew nothing about it.
Xiao Heng went on, "Father, I beg you to take back the things you gave me! The palace is too big, it is a waste for me to live in it. Those rewards are too luxurious, it is simply a waste for me to use them. Only my brother the Crown Prince deserves them! "
"So she is making things difficult for you just because I rewarded you with something. She is so vicious. How can she be a mother of the country!"
The emperor and empress have been particularly unkind recently. They have been lecturing Xiao Heng under his nose, which is a provocation to him.
Xiao Heng hastened to explain: "Father has misunderstood. The empress said that the crown prince is busy working outside, and I, a son who eats idle meals, really don't deserve so many good things! "
The more he explained, the angrier the emperor became. His good mood of waiting to see his son was completely ruined.
He waved his hand and asked the eunuch to take Xiao Heng to apply medicine.
Xiao Heng carefully took something out of his arms. It turned out to be a wooden carving of their family of four.
Xiao Heng looked at the emperor with a broken head and exclaimed, "Oh, how did it get broken? It must have been accidentally broken when I was questioned by the Empress Just now. I am useless and cannot give you expensive gifts. I can only carve our family of four for you. I wanted you to have a thought. I didn't expect that even it is broken. I am really useless! "
Xiao Heng hugged the wood carving, tears pouring down his face!
The Emperor of Dongling took over the broken wood carving, and did not get angry because of his broken head.
The characters on the wood carving were lifelike, the woman was gentle and lovely, and the daughter was beautiful and lovely.
Originally, he could have had someone he loved to serve him, but it was because the queen was too fierce and jealous that they died early.
He stroked the woman on the wood carving, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart. He was unable to protect them at the beginning, but now he could not. He will definitely protect their son. After
Xiao Heng delivered the gift, he was taken away by the eunuch to apply medicine and then leave the palace. However, after taking a few steps, Xiao Heng fell straight down.
The emperor placed him in a side hall in his palace. The doctor said that Xiao Heng was too frightened, which evoked the fear deep in his memory, so he had a high fever.
The emperor was even more displeased with Queen Dongling. Thinking of the life they had lived before, the emperor felt more guilty towards Xiao Heng.
The unconscious Xiao Heng woke up automatically when the palace was empty. He followed the information given by Li Yunshu and successfully got the emperor's military token and copied it down.
He was so drunk today, not just to provoke the relationship between the emperor and the empress,
but also to get the child. What he wanted to break was not just the emperor's wooden head...
