Chapter 14 I think you are very good
"Anyone who causes trouble will be killed without mercy!"
The guards rushed in with swords in hand, and Xiao Zhinian was surrounded before he could hide.
Shen Zhejiang's expression changed slightly, and he almost instinctively stood in front of Xiao Zhinian.
Xiao Zhinian pulled Shen Zhejiang behind him and shouted at the guards, "How dare you!"
"Rebellious son! Come here!" Behind the guards, Emperor Wu Kun walked into the room, opened his eyelids and coldly scanned the people inside, especially Xiao Zhinian who was wearing a red wedding dress. He immediately became furious, "Chen Zhejiang intends to murder, capture him and Wang Xiuyi for me!"
"Let's see who dares!"
Xiao Zhinian glared at the guards who were ready to make a move.
Emperor Wu Kun put his hands behind his back, anger burning like a raging fire around him, almost biting his teeth to pieces, and uttered word by word: "Take down the crown prince as well."
Everyone knows that the prince is the apple of the emperor and empress's eye. This sentence contains too much disappointment and resentment.
The guards dared not hesitate at all. After receiving the order, they immediately arrested the three men.
"Let me go!"
Instead, Shen Zhejiang calmly asked back, "The matter has not yet been clarified, why is Your Majesty so eager to detain me?"
Wu Kundi snorted coldly: "Shen Zhejiang, do you have any ulterior motives? Don't you know it yourself? Since you want the truth..."
After a pause, he continued, "Han Zitang, this case will be handed over to the Ministry of Justice for handling. If you dare to cover up, you will be held accountable."
Hearing this, Shen Zhejiang and Han Zitang were both stunned.
The emperor wanted to use this case to alienate the two of them. Regardless of whether the person behind the scenes was Shen Zhejiang or not, the emperor just wanted to get a satisfactory answer, which was to make Shen Zhejiang personally confess his guilt and sign it.
Knowing that he had a private relationship with Han Zitang, he still wanted Han Zitang to convict him.
It is truly a move that kills and breaks one's heart.
Seeing that Han Zitang hadn't responded for a long time, Emperor Wu Kun glanced at him and said, "Why don't you accept my order, Mr. Han?"
The atmosphere condenses.
Han Zitang stood on a staircase that was neither up nor down, unable to make a decision.
Shen Zhejiang looked up at him, and Han Zitang happened to look at him as well.
"......"
Seeing them flirting with each other, Xiao Zhinian felt as if he had fallen into a jar of jealousy, and he interrupted without thinking: "No!"
Emperor Wu Kun waved his hand and said, "Take him away!"
Xiao Zhinian said anxiously: "Sir!"
This bastard is really unbearable to look at.
Emperor Wu Kun held his forehead which suddenly ached and said, "Lock them all in jail! Guard them well for me!"
-
Only the cold moonlight shines through the dark prison, making it seem even colder and more desolate.
Shen Zhejiang sat against the stone wall. The thin prison uniform did not keep him warm at all. The cold air penetrated his body and his face turned terribly pale.
“Ahem!”
The violent coughing sound echoed in the small cell.
"What's wrong with you, sir?"
Next door is Xiao Zhinian.
Shen Zhejiang covered his mouth, his chest trembling, and he coughed and coughed, and actually coughed up blood again.
He had no intention of paying any attention to Xiao Zhinian, so he walked to the farthest corner, closed his eyes and sat there.
He wanted to be alone.
It's too messy.
Everything that happened from the time he fell into the water until now seemed to be arranged by someone, making him fall into it step by step.
Who was the man in black who pushed him?
Who shot that arrow?
And the Ministry of War, why did the emperor put Wang Xiuyi in jail as well? Could it be that he just wanted to put on an act for others to see?
Zitang...the emperor involved him as well, and eventually he was implicated.
"Sir! Say something!"
Xiao Zhinian's extremely anxious voice continued to be heard.
As if Shen Zhejiang hadn't heard it, he was lost in thought and finally said, "Your Highness, I'm tired. Please be quiet."
Xiao Zhinian stopped talking, but after a while, he couldn't stand the loneliness anymore and said sullenly, "It's all my fault. When my father calms down, I'll ask him to let you all go."
Shen Zhejiang said: "Not everything can go according to your Highness's wishes. You don't understand my affairs."
How could Xiao Zhinian understand?
"But you have never been honest with me about your affairs, sir." Although Shen Zhejiang couldn't see Xiao Zhinian, he could tell from his tone that he was not that happy. "You are always like this, unwilling to tell me anything, pushing me away again and again. Do you know how upset I am?"
Shen Zhejiang opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, he heard the clanging sound of an iron lock, and Xiao Zhinian walked towards him.
Shen Zhejiang's heart thumped as he suddenly realized what Xiao Zhinian was going to confess next.
"Chen Zhejiang, I want to call you this, not Mr., but Zhejiang," Xiao Zhinian paused, "From now on, from birth to death, I want you to be by my side, are you willing?"
This was the second time he said this to Shen Zhejiang.
He was nervous, not knowing how Shen Zhejiang would answer him. If he agreed, that would be great.
He would ask the best embroiderer in the capital to sew the most enviable wedding dress in the world and create the most beautiful jade crown. By then, Shen Zhejiang would definitely be the most handsome person in the world.
But what if Shen Zhejiang doesn't agree?
What should he do?
You can't force Shen Zhejiang to marry him.
"......"
Shen Zhejiang didn't want to respond, so he remained silent. The words "I like you, too" had already exhausted his courage.
He wanted to avoid the question like he did last time, but Xiao Zhinian insisted on getting an answer.
"My father has also arranged a marriage for me. She is the only daughter of the Minister of Personnel. My mother said that she has the majesty of a phoenix queen, but I don't like her. I only like you." Xiao Zhinian sat down against the wall, probably wanting to be closer to Chen Zhejiang. "As long as you say yes, I will leave the rest to you..."
"Why?"
"What?"
Shen Zhejiang turned his gaze toward the iron window with a somewhat sad look. The cold and lonely moonlight was very chilling. He finally asked, "Why is it me?"
Xiao Zhinian seemed to smile, and said warmly, "Because you are very good."
