Chapter 346 Reward your two babies and rush back to the capital
Before Xiao Jinyu could finish his words, he saw the emperor push the memorial in front of him.
"That's perfect. I'm a little tired and want to rest. Since you can't sleep, just finish reviewing these memorials for me."
As soon as Xiao Jinyu saw the memorial, he immediately said, "Father, um, what, I'm suddenly very sleepy, I'm so sleepy, I'll take my leave now."
Having said that, he slipped away.
The emperor looked at his son running faster than a rabbit and snorted, "You little bastard, can't I punish you?"
Looking down at the pile of memorials in front of me, I thought of the empress going to the White Horse Temple...
The emperor ordered: "Eunuch Li, change the tea."
"Here." Eunuch Li stepped forward, took the teacup away, and placed a cup of new tea on the dragon table.
After Xiao Jinyu came out, he ordered his personal guard to ride a fast horse to find the prince.
After giving the instructions, Xiao Jinyu originally wanted to go to Xiaoxiang Pavilion to visit Shen Chuwei, but seeing that it was getting late, thinking that Shen Chuwei must have rested, he changed his mind and returned to Chengqian Palace.
As soon as I stepped into the bedroom, I saw Miss Han sitting there quietly.
He found that whenever he came back late, Miss Han would sit there, holding the teacup in her hand, sipping it leisurely. She was so quiet that people could ignore her, but her almost cold attitude could not be ignored.
"Miss Han, you haven't rested yet?" Xiao Jinyu said as he walked over.
Miss Han put down the teacup in her hand, raised her beautiful watery eyes and looked at Xiao Jinyu, "I'm waiting for you to come back."
Xiao Jinyu sat down in front of Miss Han and poured himself a cup of tea. "Actually, you don't have to wait for me. You can rest if you are tired." After saying that, he picked up the teacup and took two sips.
Miss Han looked at Xiao Jinyu calmly, "I'm not tired."
Xiao Jinyu paused in drinking tea and looked up at Miss Han. The look in her eyes...it made him feel like he didn't know whether to drink the tea in his hand or not.
"Miss Han is really in high spirits."
Miss Han was not modest: "Better than Prince Yu."
Xiao Jinyu smiled awkwardly. Doesn’t he have any face?
At this time, Qin Xiao was tied to a rack, with his arms spread out and tied up separately, unable to move.
He had been tortured several times, and his guard uniform had long been whipped into strips. His blood had dried up but new blood was flowing out.
No matter how the prison boss beat him, Qin Xiao didn't say a word.
Several people took turns beating him until midnight when they got tired and stopped.
"You bastard, my hands are sore and you didn't say a word?
"Forget it, go to sleep. We'll continue tomorrow, using various torture instruments in turn. I'm not afraid that he won't confess."
After the jailer and several prison guards left, Qin Xiao raised his head. His originally handsome face was now covered with crisscrossing whip marks. His sword-like brows were tightly furrowed, but he remained silent.
The next day, Shen Chuwei heard the cheerful chirping of birds outside the window. She leaned her head out of the window and saw two magpies jumping and chirping happily on the branches. They looked so happy.
Seeing Chunxi coming in, she pointed at the magpies and said, "Chunxi, there are two magpies on the tree, they are very affectionate."
Upon hearing this, Chunxi put down the clothes in her hands and walked over. She looked out of the window and saw two magpies chirping happily.
"My lady, they say that when a magpie chirps outside your door, good things will happen." Chunxi smiled, a rare moment: "Something good will definitely happen in the next two days."
Shen Chuwei looked at the two magpies on the branch, with a sweet smile in her eyes: "I had a hunch too."
At this moment, a dark head suddenly appeared outside the window, with a young and handsome face and a pair of crooked peach blossom eyes that always had a faint smile on them.
Xiao Jinyu chuckled and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm here to see you."
Shen Chuwei praised him generously: "Prince Yu, you are so amazing. You actually came in without anyone noticing."
Xiao Jinyu was quite proud, "Of course, don't you see who I am?"
Chunxi seemed to have seen a savior, "Prince Yu, you are finally here. Has the emperor found out the truth? When will he release my young lady?"
Xiao Jinyu's face immediately turned serious, "It hasn't been found out yet. My father was cheated on a few days ago and he's still angry. It's inevitable that he would be furious when encountering something like this."
Chunxi said indignantly: "But my mistress is clearly pregnant, it's just that we didn't find out until after Your Highness left."
"Of course I believe you, sister-in-law." Xiao Jinyu looked at Shen Chuwei and soothed her, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. I have already sent someone to notify my brother and also sent someone to the White Horse Temple to ask my mother to come back quickly."
"As for the two doctors, I have also sent people to investigate. They dared to frame my sister-in-law, and I will never let them off easily."
Shen Chuwei was deeply moved. "How could I deserve to be associated with such a loyal and domineering uncle like you?"
Xiao Jinyu was a little embarrassed by the compliment, "No, no, this is what I should do."
Shen Chuwei promised solemnly: "When the baby is born, I will give you more hugs."
Xiao Jinyu's eyebrows curved with joy, "Sister-in-law, this is what you said, you are not allowed to regret it."
Shen Chuwei said firmly and confidently: "No regrets, you can hold me as long as you want."
Xiao Jinyu chuckled twice.
Later, when Xiao Jinyu hugged his brother, he peed as soon as he put him in his arms.
When I hugged my sister, I vomited milk all over him~
Chunxi thought of Qin Xiao still suffering in the prison, and she couldn't help asking, "Prince Yu, how is Qin Xiao?"
When talking about Qin Xiao, Xiao Jinyu was stunned for a moment, because he had forgotten Qin Xiao~
Seeing that Xiao Jinyu didn't say anything, Chunxi thought that something had happened to Qin Xiao. She asked in a trembling voice: "Did Qin Xiao suffer from the ten tortures..."
Chunxi choked up and couldn't continue.
When Xiao Jinyu saw Chunxi crying, he hurriedly explained: "I was in a hurry to see my sister-in-law, and I haven't taken care of Qin Xiao yet. I don't know what his situation is now."
Chunxi was not comforted by what she heard, but burst into tears.
Shen Chuwei also began to worry, "Prince Yu, can you go into the prison to see Qin Xiao?"
Xiao Jinyu saw Chunxi crying and wondered what the relationship was between Qin Xiao and Chunxi? Why was she so sad for Qin Xiao?
"No problem, I'll go to the prison to see Qin Xiao later."
Upon hearing this, Shen Chuwei lay on the couch, opened the cabinet door on the couch, took out the retractable handbag that she had prepared in advance, and stuffed it into Xiao Jinyu's arms. There were several kinds of medicine in the retractable bag.
"Take these medicines to Qin Xiao, just in case."
"Okay." Xiao Jinyu took a bag of medicine, then turned around and left.
Xiao Jinyu came to the Tianlao. Because it was summer, the smell was a bit unpleasant. He opened his folding fan, covered his mouth and nose, and followed the jailer in.
The jailer saw that the person coming was Prince Yu, and he came forward with his hands clasped and his waist bowed, "Prince Yu, this is the Heavenly Prison. You are of noble status, why are you here?"
Xiao Jinyu asked in a deep voice: "Where is Qin Xiao?"
The jailer said with a flattering smile, "That bastard Qin Xiao hasn't confessed yet. He was just tortured. He's in there."
Xiao Jinyu frowned and said, "Lead the way."
The jailer said respectfully, "Prince Yu, please follow me."
Xiao Jinyu followed the prison boss all the way inside.
There were all kinds of torture instruments inside, and a strong smell of blood could be smelled.
In summer, there is a charcoal brazier burning inside, making it feel like being in a big steamer.
Qin Xiao sat in the corner, his hair was disheveled and the clothes on his body could no longer be called clothes.
There was a puddle of water where he was, probably the cool water splashed after he passed out from the pain.
The prison boss raised his foot and kicked Qin Xiao, then shouted fiercely, "Get up quickly, Prince Yu is here to see you."
"Hiss!" Qin Xiao groaned, slowly raised his head, and saw Xiao Jinyu.
Before he could open his mouth, Xiao Jinyu kicked the prison boss in front of him away.
"Bang!" The prison boss' body hit the wall and he grimaced in pain.
Xiao Jinyu's eyes were cold: "Do you really need to waste your words in front of this king?"
The prison boss came over and said, "Yes, yes, I was too talkative."
Xiao Jinyu said coldly: "Why don't you get out?"
"I'll withdraw now." The jailer rolled and crawled out again.
After everyone left, Xiao Jinyu took two quick steps to Qin Xiao and looked at his wolfish appearance, which no longer had his former high spirits.
"Qin Xiao, how do you feel?"
"Lord Yu, I'm fine." He hadn't drunk a drop of water for a whole day and night, and his throat was dry and hoarse.
"You don't look like you're okay, do you?" Xiao Jinyu looked Qin Xiao up and down, wanting to take him to take a shower, change clothes, and apply some medicine.
But the matter has not been investigated clearly yet, so he can't take Qin Xiao away.
Qin Xiao asked with difficulty: "How is Shen Liangdi?"
Xiao Jinyu said, "Don't worry, Shen Liang Di. I'm here and I won't let my father touch a hair of hers."
Qin Xiao heaved a sigh of relief, "That's good."
Xiao Jinyu took out a bottle of water from his arms. It was given to him by Shen Chuwei. It was called glucose.
"Drink some water first."
Qin Xiao was very thirsty at the moment, so he opened his mouth and drank, finishing the whole bottle of glucose.
Then, Xiao Jinyu gave him a few pieces of chocolate, saying that they could quickly replenish his energy.
Qin Xiao was extremely hungry at the moment, and he didn't mind that the food was too sweet. He ate several pieces and then drank some water.
Xiao Jinyu took out some medicine and applied powder on his wounds to stop the bleeding and heal them quickly.
"Hold on for now, my brother will be back soon."
Qin Xiao had recovered some strength now. "Don't worry about me. Even if I die, I will never let Shen Liang Di suffer this injustice."
Xiao Jinyu was somewhat relieved, "You have to hold on. Shen Liangdi doesn't want anything to happen to you. And Chunxi cried like a tearful person when she heard that you were being tortured."
Qin Xiao was stunned when he heard this, "Really?"
Xiao Jinyu said affirmatively: "Of course, when have I ever lied to you?"
Qin Xiao pulled the corner of his mouth, but ended up grimacing in pain.
Xiao Jinyu stuffed the shrink bag in her hand into Qin Xiao's arms, "Keep these things, just in case."
Xiao Jinyu walked out, glanced at the people at the table, and warned: "The emperor wants the truth, not a confession under torture. You can't afford to fail the emperor's command."
The prison boss trembled and nodded: "I understand."
Only then did Xiao Jinyu leave with satisfaction.
At this time, on the wide official road, several horses were galloping towards the capital, raising a cloud of dust along the way.
The one running in the front is the Crown Prince Xiao Jinyan!
