They just saw Qin Shuo walking away quickly, but Hu Xiao walked towards his own room without a care.
"Scram!"
Before she could even finish, she heard a loud roar. Hu Xiao felt it was strange and quickened her pace, only to see that Zhao Qiyan had already beaten him up.
Just as she was about to say something, Hu Xiao saw the guards standing in a row by the side, and suddenly understood something.
Initially, they thought that Hu Xiao had returned to stop the fight between Zhao Qiyan and them, but they had already raised a trace of hope in their eyes. However, they did not hear Hu Xiao speak for a long time, and could not help but become anxious, wishing for Hu Xiao to speak quickly.
"Enough, if you want to fight then fight outside. What are you trying to do here?"
When she had looked enough, Hu Xiao suddenly said.
Zhi Lan had always been under Hu Xiao’s guidance from the start, so naturally, her martial arts were even better than before. Now, she was already able to fight to a draw under Zhao Qiyan’s hands, and furthermore, Zhao Qiyan could not bear to hurt Zhi Lan in the first place.
"Empress."
Hearing Hu Xiao’s words, the two of them turned and looked at him in fear.
"Qin Shuo told you to come to my palace to put me under house arrest?"
Hu Xiao slightly nodded, and after seeing the uneasiness on Zhao Qiyan’s face, she said.
Hearing that, Zhi Lan stared at Zhao Qiyan even more angrily. When Zhao Qiyan brought the others over, Zhi Lan felt that something was amiss, but no matter how she asked, he could not get any answers out of it.
"Empress, how can the two of us call His Majesty by your name?"
Originally, he wanted to say something, but after hearing Hu Xiao’s words, Zhao Qiyan did not have the slightest hint of respect for him, and could not help but say this.
"Qin Shuo is about to cripple me. Zhao Qiyan, do you think that there’s anything else I don’t dare to do?"
Hu Xiao was a little unconcerned, she did not care about these disrespect, but now that she heard Zhao Qiyan’s words, she naturally felt extremely uncomfortable in her heart, and immediately said unceremoniously. However, Hu Xiao did not know that what she had said just now had caused the hearts of the people who heard it to surge with shock.
"What?" His Majesty has never given such orders! "
Zhao Qiyan could not care less about correcting Hu Xiao, he only felt that there was a huge difference. He had clearly told her to take care of Hu Xiao during these few days, but she did not mention anything about crippling him.
"Hehe, Zhao Qiyan, you don’t know? Your group of hundreds of civil and military officials are joint officials, and that Wen Fuchen even used the Emperor Treasure Jade to force Qin Shuo to cripple my palace. "
But Hu Xiao did not mind and told Zhao Qiyan about it. After all, in the palace, the ones who supported Hu Xiao were Zhao Qiyan and Yin Fufeng.
Since they had not met Yin Fufeng today, it was time to go and do something, right? But it was also good this way, it was not necessary to become the public enemy of the East Court for her.
"Impossible, I’ll go look for His Majesty right now. His Majesty clearly..." Sigh, His Majesty will definitely not be crippled! "
The words were about to reach his mouth but he could not continue. Zhao Qiyan hated himself and was about to leave, but he was stopped by Hu Xiao.
"No need, I have already personally verified it, His Majesty is not in a good mood right now, a thick-skinned person like you might be thrown out by Qin Shuo if he goes to look at His Majesty’s eyes. I do not care, but there will be a good show to watch in the next few days, if you bring my fake body back, it will be a land of injustice and betrayal for me."
Zhao Qiyan had to go in front of Qin Shuo and shout loudly, if anyone else were to hear it, they would say something to her, but Hu Xiao did not care, and just waited for them to go back on their words, haha.
Although he did not know why Hu Xiao was so confident, but he dispelled the thought of going to find Qin Shuo to argue, and Zhi Lan took advantage of when Zhao Qiyan was unprepared, and struck him right in the face.
Being suddenly punched and sent flying, he could not help but glare at Zhi Lan in anger, how could this woman be so despicable! ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
"Alright, Zhi Lan, Great General Zhao is just following orders, even if we are dissatisfied there is no point in doing so. Let’s go, since they like to guard outside, then let’s guard outside."
It was just following orders to do what he was told, just now, Zhao Qiyan showing extra care to Zhi Lan was something that Hu Xiao saw for himself, but he still needed to do what he was supposed to do.
Hu Xiao was picking flowers and escaping birds in the courtyard every day, so she could live a comfortable life. If only she could continue doing this kind of thing, it would be great, but it was a pity that there were people who would not like her being free.
"Speak, why have you come to find me?"
Although she told Qin Shuo that she wanted him to write a letter and cripple his authority, there was no movement at all. All of the palace maid in the courtyard felt that Hu Xiao had already left, and most of them had already gone back to his courtyard. However, Hu Xiao only turned a blind eye to all of this, and watched as the people who had served her in the past leave.
At first, she was a little embarrassed, but after seeing that Hu Xiao did not seem to care about it at all, she openly left.
Originally, Hu Xiao had told everyone that she would not see anyone on the day she was placed under house arrest, but this Xue Mier had already knelt outside the courtyard for a long time. After calculating that it was about time, Xue Mier became the first person to enter Hu Xiao’s courtyard.
"Empress sure is capable. Her Majesty has already placed him under house arrest, and she’s still so carefree."
He had originally thought that he would see the extremely depressed and dejected Hu Xiao, but her glowing face made Xue Mier extremely jealous.
"Hoh, if you have something to say, then say it. If you have nothing else to say, then quickly scram."
She thought that it was because of the matter she had on her mind, but the words that had just left her mouth made Hu Xiao extremely dissatisfied, and she immediately stopped giving this person a nice look, as she got up and prepared to leave.
"Empress! Please save the citizens of Sui City! "
He never expected Hu Xiao to be so temperamental, and it seemed that she was even more exaggerated than before. Thinking about her purpose here today, she gritted her teeth, and with a pu sound, she kneeled on the ground.
"Huh? I don’t have that kind of ability. Besides, didn’t the officials say I was interfering with the government? "Now that I’m afraid, I don’t know anything about this at all."
The evil smile on Hu Xiao’s face caused him to feel a chill from the bottom of her heart.
"Empress ..."
He actually felt that she was unable to say a word, but this was something that she had been entrusted with. If she did not do this well, wouldn’t her reputation be ruined?
