Chapter 143 Confession
He lost his concentration for a moment and nearly fell off the throne.
Fortunately, Cen Xi was quick to help him up.
"Your Majesty, are you okay?" At this moment, Xiao Yuheng roughly understood what was going on, but he still remained calm.
"No, nothing."
Emperor Qi Yuan straightened the crown on his head and sat down again.
"Seventeen, today is your birthday, right?"
"Your Majesty, yes."
Emperor Qi Yuan nodded. Xiao Yuheng's birthday was June 25th, which means that Xiao Yuheng was born ten and a half months after Pei Ji's death.
From this point of view, he should not be Pei Ji's son, but how to explain the fact that they look so similar?
"Well, Seventeen, you finally returned to the capital. I should have held a banquet for you and celebrated with great fanfare, but you also know that the Crown Prince is now seriously injured, and the Eighth Prince died unexpectedly..."
Xiao Yuheng smiled, "Your Majesty, the eighth prince's mourning period has not yet passed, so it is really inappropriate to have a feast or a festivity. I understand this."
"Hey, I'm glad you understand."
Emperor Qi Yuan pretended to be regretful and said, "It's impossible to hold a banquet, but the reward must still be given. Come! Present the things!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a young eunuch came up to the hall carrying a tray.
The thing on the tray was covered with a layer of satin. Xiao Yuheng was not sure what it was. The only thing he was sure of was that it contained endless coldness. He felt the terrifying chill before he got close to it.
"His Majesty!"
He knelt respectfully and said, "I do not want any reward. I hope Your Majesty will take this thing back."
"oh?"
Emperor Qi Yuan narrowed his eyes, and his gentle expression instantly became gloomy.
"Seventeen wants to disobey the order?"
"I dare not!"
"It's good that you don't dare."
Emperor Qi Yuan signaled the young eunuch to lift the satin cloth, and a white jade toad as big as a palm was revealed.
When the ministers saw this object, they all exclaimed, "Could this be the snow toad that was sent as tribute by the Nanzhao Kingdom?"
"I heard that this thing is extremely cooling. If you put it indoors in the summer, the adjacent rooms will also be cool."
"Yeah, this is good stuff..."
After hearing this, Emperor Qi Yuan couldn't help but smile.
"Look, they really want the things you don't want, so take them quickly!"
Seeing that he couldn't refuse, Xiao Yuheng had no choice but to accept it.
It didn't matter that he took it. In just a blink of an eye, the biting coldness passed through the tray and reached him.
He took a deep breath and, with great effort, suppressed the momentum of transformation.
He smiled and nodded, "I thank Your Majesty for your grace and reward. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave."
Having said that, he turned around and prepared to leave.
“Wait!”
Emperor Qi Yuan stopped him in a hurry, but then felt that he had been too obvious, so he softened his tone.
"Seventeen, these ministers haven't had a proper look at the Snow Toad yet. Why don't you take this thing and let them take a good look?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuheng clenched his teeth.
The old man became suspicious and knew that if he didn't cooperate, the other party would not let him go.
"good."
Not far outside the palace, Shen Yue was almost dried up by the sun.
The weather was already hot, and she felt even hotter because she was anxious.
There was a kind-hearted eunuch who brought tea over from a distance, but Shen Yue was in no mood to drink tea at the moment. She said "no thanks" and continued to look into the hall.
The eunuch said again, "You'd better have some tea."
...This sound?
Shen Yue turned around in surprise.
The eunuch still had his head lowered, but judging from his figure, he was undoubtedly Jiang Da.
Jiang Da looked around and saw that no one was paying attention. He whispered:
"Someone just delivered something extremely cold to Chengqian Palace. The prince is in trouble, go quickly!"
Extremely cold things?
Shen Yue was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized what he meant. Without giving it any more thought, she quickly flew away.
At this time, Xiao Yuheng could no longer hold on.
The coldness of the snow toad and the original coldness in his body both complemented and counteracted each other, running wildly in his body. When he suppressed one coldness, another one would suddenly rise up.
"My Lords, have you seen enough?"
As he spoke, his confidence was no longer as strong as before, and ice crystals had begun to form on his dark brows.
A sharp-eyed minister saw this and couldn't help asking, "Your Majesty, are you okay?"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Qi Yuan said anxiously, "Seventeen, turn around."
He wanted to see in front of all the civil and military officials whether this kid was Pei Ji's son!
Xiao Yuheng didn't move.
"Turn around!" Emperor Qi Yuan shouted again.
This time, Xiao Yuheng raised the corners of his lips, and with a bang, he knocked the snow toad to the ground.
You want to break up with me?
He tore it up for him to see!
He closed his eyes and directed the two streams of cold air to his palms.
Just when it was about to explode, several crisp and powerful whip sounds were heard outside the hall.
The next second, a black shadow quickly passed by the crowd and came in front of Xiao Yuheng like the wind!
Before Xiao Yuheng could react, warm lips were already pressed against his, and immediately afterwards, a few traces of sweet and fishy taste were poured into his throat.
The desire that had been suppressed for so long was finally relieved. Every part of his body was satisfied and his soul trembled.
He couldn't help but hug the person and demand more greedily.
The ministers in the hall were already stunned by the sight of this scene.
What is going on?
King Cheng's guards killed the Jinwu guards at the door just to break into the hall and kiss him?
The two of us kissed each other, you bit me and I sucked you, and we were inseparable, making smacking sounds.
If you look closely, you can see that the little guard's lip is bitten...
I didn't expect that King Cheng was not only a homosexual, but also so cunning.
If the two dared to kiss like this in front of His Majesty, how fierce would the battle be in the middle of the night when no one was around...
Oh my...
I dare not think about it, I dare not think about it!
Emperor Qi Yuan was obviously stunned for a while, but it was only for a moment before he reacted and roared:
"Someone, separate them!"
Dozens of Jinwu guards at the door were killed instantly, and only ministers and a few eunuchs were left in the hall.
After hearing the sound, they immediately stepped forward and tried to pull the two apart.
But as soon as Xiao Yuheng moved his palm, everyone was blown away by a strong shock wave.
Helplessly, the hundreds of people in Chengqian Hall had to watch and wait for the two to finish kissing.
After a long time, Xiao Yuheng was willing to let go of the person in his arms.
His thumb gently stroked Shen Yue's pale lips. He felt both distressed and regretful. He shouldn't have sucked so much.
"Ayue, why did you come in?"
He stared at her, his eyes already red.
Shen Yue smiled brightly, "Come and confess!"
"Confession?"
"Yeah." Shen Yue nodded seriously.
"Remember the question I asked you just now? I asked you if you envied the young master of the Zhang family, and you didn't answer. But what I want to say is that I envy Miss Situ very much. I want to be like her and announce something to the world."
As she spoke, she let go of Xiao Yuheng's hand, walked to the center of the hall, and knelt respectfully.
"Your Majesty, I, the servant Chen Yue, was deeply in love with His Royal Highness, Prince Cheng. I was so overwhelmed with joy that I could hardly contain myself. This is why I injured the Jinwu Guards and trespassed into the Chengqian Palace. This was my own wishful thinking and has nothing to do with Your Majesty. Please punish me, Your Majesty!"
