Chapter 146 Pleading
Chapter 146 Pleading
"Xuan Zhou, go to the Prince's Mansion immediately. Something must have happened to A Yao."
After spitting out a mouthful of blood, Nangong Jing completely ignored his injured meridians and only focused on holding Feng Xuanzhou's hand, pleading anxiously.
Nangong Jing didn't believe that Xuanyuan Xingyao would betray their feelings, so the most likely scenario was that their relationship was exposed and something must have happened to Xuanyuan Xingyao.
Otherwise, given Xuanyuan Xingyao's personality, he would never agree to the marriage.
"Okay, I'll be there right away. Don't worry, don't worry. And you just vomited blood, which must have damaged your heart and lungs. I'll find a doctor to check you out first."
Feng Xuanzhou was so anxious that he almost spoke without thinking. On one hand, he said he was going to find Xuanyuan Xingyao, and on the other hand, he said he was going to find a doctor for Nangong Jing.
"I know my own body well. I vomited blood just now, but I'm not seriously injured. Don't worry about me. If I were really injured, I would let Xiao Jin heal me. You should hurry to the Prince's Mansion."
Nangong Jing shook his head and refused.
When Feng Xuanzhou heard Nangong Jing mention the Brahman Golden Bird, he remembered that the Brahman Golden Bird was a healing monster, and he felt slightly relieved.
He reminded Nangong Jing several times to release the Fanjin Bird to treat him, and then hurried to the Prince's Mansion to find Xuanyuan Xingyao.
But Nangong Jing was thinking about Xuanyuan Xingyao in his heart, and remembered that Xuanyuan Xingyao had been given a marriage. His face was full of despair, and he had no mind to treat himself.
After Feng Xuanzhou left, he just sat there blankly.
Feng Xuanzhou hurried to Prince Han Xi's mansion, but was told that Xuanyuan Xingyao had been called to the palace by the emperor a few hours ago and had not returned yet.
When Feng Xuanzhou heard that Xuanyuan Xingyao had been called into the palace by the emperor and had not returned yet, his heart skipped a beat.
Feng Xuanzhou had a hunch that Xuanyuan Xingyao might be under house arrest by the emperor, and he didn't even know about the arranged marriage.
Xuanyuan Xingyao certainly didn't know. It wasn't until Xuanyuan Leng found him that he realized Xuanyuan Hongtai had actually arranged a marriage for him. He exploded on the spot and even wanted to rush out to question Xuanyuan Hongtai.
Xuanyuan Leng felt something was wrong when Xuanyuan Hongtai suddenly arranged a marriage for him.
When Lan Qier told Xuanyuan Leng that Xuanyuan Xingyao was left in Zhaochun Palace by the emperor and that there were many guards guarding Zhaochun Palace, Xuanyuan Leng's brows never relaxed.
"Your Highness, why do I feel like the Emperor is putting Xingyao under house arrest? And isn't this arranged marriage a bit too hasty? We haven't received any news before."
Lan Qier looked at Xuanyuan Leng with a worried look on her face and said.
"Go ask the Queen Mother and see if she knows what's going on. I'm going to Zhaochun Palace."
Xuanyuan Leng said to Lan Qier seriously.
"good."
Xuanyuan Xingyao is Xuanyuan Leng's younger brother. If something happens to Xuanyuan Xingyao, it will inevitably affect Xuanyuan Leng, which is naturally not what Lan Qier wants to see.
Moreover, after Lan Qier and Xuanyuan Leng got married, Xuanyuan Xingyao was very respectful to Lan Qier. It was not reasonable for Lan Qier to want anything to happen to Xuanyuan Xingyao.
When Xuanyuan Leng arrived at Zhaochun Palace, he saw that there was a guard post every three steps and a sentry every five steps at the gate of Zhaochun Palace. The gate was full of guards, and his mood suddenly became heavier.
"Your Highness."
When the guards saw Xuanyuan Leng, they all saluted him.
"Open the palace gate. I want to go in."
Xuanyuan Leng gave the order with full majesty.
The guards looked at the captain with some embarrassment, some not sure whether they should open the door.
Xuanyuan Leng saw all of this, and his eyes darkened a little.
"I think Father only prevented my seventh brother from coming out, and didn't prevent others from visiting him."
Xuanyuan Leng glanced at the captain of the guard and said.
The captain thought about it and realized that Xuanyuan Hongtai did not order others not to see Xuanyuan Xingyao.
In addition to Xuanyuan Leng's identity, the captain did not dare to really offend the other party, so he nodded to a guard and signaled him to open the door.
"Brother!!! You must help me this time."
Xuanyuan Xingyao was in Zhaochun Palace at this time, feeling very restless. When he saw Xuanyuan Leng appear, he rarely showed his emotions and excitedly grabbed Xuanyuan Leng.
When had Xuanyuan Leng seen Xuanyuan Xingyao so excited? He didn't know if it was his illusion, but he felt that Xuanyuan Xingyao seemed much more haggard.
"Ayao, calm down and tell me slowly. What happened? Why did the emperor suddenly put you under house arrest? And why did he suddenly grant you a marriage just now?!"
Xuanyuan Xingyao was about to say something when he heard Xuanyuan Leng say that Xuanyuan Hongtai had arranged a marriage for him, and he was stunned.
After reacting, Xuanyuan Xingyao confirmed in shock and disbelief.
"Brother, what did you say? Father has granted me a marriage? With whom???"
Xuanyuan Xingyao's three consecutive questions made Xuanyuan Leng certain that Xuanyuan Xingyao really didn't know about the arranged marriage.
"Don't you know? Just now, the emperor issued an imperial decree granting you a marriage with Zhuge Wan'er, the eldest daughter of the Zhuge family."
"How could Father do this? I want to see Father. He can't do this to me!!!"
Xuanyuan Xingyao's eyes were red and full of disappointment. At this moment, he had completely lost his mind.
Xuanyuan Xingyao now just wanted to question Xuanyuan Hongtai, why did he arrange marriage for him even though he knew that he liked Nangong Jing? Is it really so difficult for him to accept liking the same sex?
"Ayao, calm down first. Zhaochun Palace is guarded by guards. You can't leave unless there is a decree from the emperor. Calm down first and tell me what happened?"
When had Xuanyuan Leng seen Xuanyuan Xingyao so uncalm? Looking at Xuanyuan Xingyao's somewhat crazy look, Xuanyuan Leng felt that his heart was about to break.
He hugged Xuanyuan Xingyao's waist with heartache, and kept asking him to calm down.
With Xuanyuan Leng's repeated consolations, Xuanyuan Xingyao finally calmed down.
When he was under house arrest in Zhaochun Palace, Xuanyuan Xingyao just wanted Xuanyuan Leng to help him. However, he was stimulated by the news that Xuanyuan Xingyao had been granted marriage, so he acted a little irrationally.
After calming down, Xuanyuan Xingyao regained some of his former wisdom and turned to speak seriously to Xuanyuan Leng.
"Brother, I hope you can do me a favor."
"You said it, big brother will definitely help."
Xuanyuan Leng could not bear Xuanyuan Xingyao's pleading eyes. As long as Xuanyuan Xingyao asked, not to mention one person, even ten or a hundred Xuanyuan Lengs would help, because this was his most beloved brother.
"Brother, I actually have someone I like, Xiao Jing. But the emperor doesn't agree with us. Someone deliberately revealed my relationship with Xiao Jing to the emperor. He said that if the emperor asked me to get married, he wouldn't object to my relationship with Xiao Jing, but I refused..."
Xuanyuan Xingyao briefly and quickly explained the relationship between him and Nangong Jing.
Xuanyuan Leng's heart was now filled with shock beyond words. Xuanyuan Xingyao and Nangong Jing were together? He had never noticed before.
No, it's not that there are no signs at all. Xuanyuan Xingyao and Nangong Jing have been close since they were young, so it seems possible that they will be together.
"You said that someone deliberately revealed the matter between you and Xiao Jing to Father?"
Xuanyuan Leng narrowed his eyes slightly, with flames burning in them.
"Yes, I know that Father and Mother have always hoped that I could marry and have children. If they knew that Xiao Jing and I were together, Father would definitely not agree, so we have been hiding it well, hoping to slowly gain Father's consent. We are usually very careful, but today Father suddenly found out. Someone must have deliberately leaked it."
Xuanyuan Xingyao clenched his fists. If the person who leaked the information was here at this moment, Xuanyuan Xingyao would definitely blow his head off.
If that person hadn't informed on him, how could Xuanyuan Xingyao have ended up in the current embarrassing situation?
"Brother knows. Don't worry, I will definitely find out who told Father about it."
Xuanyuan Leng could actually guess who the informer was. Apart from his brothers, who else would do such a shady thing?
"Brother, I don't want to know who did this right now. I just hope you can help me explain to Xiaojing that I really don't know anything about the arranged marriage. And even if the emperor did, I wouldn't agree to it. I don't want Xiaojing to misunderstand me!!!"
Xuanyuan Xingyao believed in his relationship with Nangong Jing, but Xuanyuan Xingyao didn't dare to gamble, even if the possibility was only one in ten thousand, Xuanyuan Xingyao didn't dare to gamble.
What if, what if, what if Nangong Jing really misunderstood.
"Okay, don't worry, I will definitely help you explain. But the emperor has already issued an imperial decree. If you don't agree, you will be disobeying the order and will be punished."
Xuanyuan Leng comforted Xuanyuan Xingyao, his words full of concern for him.
"Brother, I would rather die than marry someone else. Brother, the emperor is furious right now, so please don't speak up for me. That will only make him vent his anger on you."
Although Xuanyuan Xingyao was anxious, he was also thinking about Xuanyuan Leng. He didn't want Xuanyuan Hongtai to blame Xuanyuan Leng because of his own affairs.
Xuanyuan Leng didn't expect that Xuanyuan Xingyao was still thinking about him at this time. His eyes softened a little, and a trace of relief flashed through his heart.
"Don't worry, Big Brother knows what's going on. The most important thing right now is your business. Don't talk nonsense. Big Brother and Mother are here. There's no way they'll just watch you die."
Before Xuanyuan Xingyao spoke, Xuanyuan Leng still had a glimmer of hope, hoping that Xuanyuan Xingyao would use the imperial decree of marriage to sever his relationship with Nangong Jing.
After hearing the determination in Xuanyuan Xingyao's words, Xuanyuan Leng completely gave up the idea.
Xuanyuan Leng had a premonition that if Xuanyuan Hongtai really forced Xuanyuan Xingyao to marry, Xuanyuan Xingyao would really resist in a decisive way, which was not what Xuanyuan Leng wanted to see.
Xuanyuan Xingyao naturally couldn't really do anything stupid. He just told Xuanyuan Leng his determination, and things hadn't reached the worst point yet.
"Brother, the only one who can make the emperor change his mind is my master. Big brother, please send someone to the Mo family and ask them to contact my second senior brother. Although I don't know if my second senior brother and his family are still with the master, he must have a way to contact the master."
Xuanyuan Xingyao said quickly.
"Okay, I got it. I'll have someone contact them right away. Just stay in the palace and don't worry. Big Brother will definitely help you."
Xuanyuan Leng patted Xuanyuan Xingyao's shoulder heavily and said seriously.
Xuanyuan Xingyao looked at Xuanyuan Leng with gratitude. Now he was locked up in the palace and could do nothing. He could only rely on Xuanyuan Leng.
