After becoming a widow, I raised my traitor brother

Xiao Fengxian lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes: "Your Majesty, please make it clear."

Zhou Shuo sneered in a warning tone: "The courtiers are too pedantic and stupid to understand my thoughts. They are as smart as Tanhualang, so why can't they understand? Xiao Qing, I don't raise waste."

"I am terrified." Xiao Fengxian put her hands together and knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty has sent the Prime Minister to deal with the matter of Yu He Huan. Prime Minister Murong is the most wise and fair, and he will definitely find out the truth of that year. With the Prime Minister here, Your Majesty You should be satisfied and have peace of mind."

"boom!"

Zhou Shuo directly smashed out the medicine cup held by the concubine.

The medicine cup hit Xiao Fengxian's forehead, leaving a bloody mark. The blood traces flowed along his deep facial features and slowly dripped on the purple official robe.

Xiao Fengxian stood firm and motionless: "Your Majesty, please calm down."

"Idiot!" Zhou Shuo scolded mercilessly, "The Xuanke Temple murder case has been closed. Zhou Wuyu's betrayal of his family and country is a certainty. The Wei family dared to bring Yu Hehuan into the palace tonight, which shows that they despise the imperial power and will not treat me. Take it seriously! I have summoned you here tonight to ask you to carefully check the court for me. In addition to the Wei family, there are other officials who are intolerant to King Dingbei. Those people are all bewitched by King Dingbei, but I The traitors of the Great Zhou Dynasty will be punished by everyone!"

He seemed to regard Xiao Fengxian as his confidant.

He calmed down his breathing and said slowly: "Xiao Qing, if you can do it, you will be a hero in consolidating the country and the country."

Xiao Fengxian lowered her fox eyes.

The emperor was hinting to him that if he could get rid of the court officials headed by the Wei family and prevent the Xuanke Temple murder case from being re-investigated, he would be promoted to a higher position.

He looked overjoyed and bowed his head: "I accept my order."

He was about to stand up and leave when Zhou Shuo said again: "There are also a group of veterans led by the Gu family of Qinghe. They have been gesticulating to me all day long because they have served the late emperor, and they want me to establish a prince as soon as possible. I am very tired of it. Xiao Qing, Am I very old? Am I old enough to establish a crown prince?!"

A trace of sarcasm flashed across Xiao Fengxian's eyes.

The emperor is not very old, but because of progeria, he has the appearance of a 40-year-old at the age of 50, and he looks old everywhere.

But on his face, he said respectfully: "Your Majesty is in the prime of life, he is vigorous and vigorous, how can he be old? In my opinion, there is no need to rush in establishing a prince, because your Majesty will have more heirs in the future, and the future is long, so it is better to take it slowly Pick.”

Zhou Shuo felt quite comfortable hearing this.

His eyebrows relaxed, and for a moment, there was a hint of wistfulness in his long and narrow eyes.

He had three thousand concubines in his harem, but he didn't like any of the children they gave birth to. He just wanted Rong Yuelan to give birth to their son, so that their son could inherit his position.

But since Lan'er came back from Xuanhujiang, she asked herself to be imprisoned in Zhaiyue Palace, and he couldn't even see her.

She didn't want him to touch it.

Zhou Shuo let out a long sigh, waved his hand and said, "Step back."

Xiao Fengxian exited the dormitory and bumped into Nan Zhu who was looking for him in a hurry.

The master and servant walked out along the eaves, and Xiao Fengxian lowered her voice: "How?"

Nan Zhu briefly explained what happened, and then said: "When I came here, I saw many imperial doctors rushing to Ji Beigong. I thought Zhou Xianji's body couldn't bear it anymore. After this calamity, I thought it was time for him to come." The days are numbered.”

Xiao Fengxian's eyes were cold and stern: "Idiot."

Nan Zhu quickly knelt down on the ground: "Young Master, forgive me!"

Xiao Fengxian laughed angrily: "I told you to kill Zhou Xianji, what errand are you doing?! Let Zhou Xianji be the hero to save the beauty?!"

Nan Zhu felt guilty and lowered his head: "Young Master, please punish me!"

As he finished speaking, he saw from the corner of his eye what seemed to be a thin figure standing at the end of the corridor.

It was Wei Zi who just came over.

Nan Zhu was stunned, and was about to remind Xiao Fengxian when the other party turned his back to Wei Zi and said coldly: "You have been following me for many years and have never failed, but tonight you can't even do such a simple thing. It's just a matter of doing something." Is it so difficult to die a sick man? What, you want my sister-in-law to be in love with him for a long time after marrying him?!" It was already midnight on New Year's Eve.

After the fireworks were set off, most of the people in the palace took a rest, and the surroundings were quiet except for the sound of falling snow.

Xiao Fengxian's scolding seemed careless.

Nan Zhu swallowed: "Young... Young Master..."

"Do what?"

Nan Zhu raised his hand and pointed tremblingly behind him.

Xiao Fengxian turned around.

At the end of the corridor, Wei Zi held a palace lantern in one hand and took off his rabbit fur hood with the other.

Because she fell into the water, she put on a brand new coat and skirt and came all the way from Jibei Palace. There were fine snow particles on her eyelashes. When she stared at Xiao Fengxian, those snow particles turned into water droplets, like crow feathers. Her long eyelashes suddenly became wet, and the ends of her eyes became abnormally flushed.

Her voice was still a little hoarse: "Shilang Xiao."

Xiao Fengxian's heart skipped a beat.

If Wei Zi had not heard these words, he could have put all the blame on Nan Zhu, saying that Nan Zhu was eager to protect the master and saw that the young master's sweetheart was robbed, so he took it upon himself to kill Zhou Xianji.

But rather...

Wei Zi arrived in time and listened to all his words.

He coughed lightly, thinking about how to deal with Wei Zi's cross-examination, and walked slowly to her.

He lowered his eyebrows as if he had done something wrong when he was young: "Why did my sister-in-law come suddenly? On such a cold night-"

"Please don't call me that again."

Wei Zi interrupted him and stared seriously into his guilty eyes.

Xiao Fengxian was confused.

"I have already drawn a clear line with your Xiao family. I cannot bear the word 'sister-in-law'." Wei Zi spoke slowly but firmly, "I will not pursue what happened tonight, but I hope it won't happen again." Once. Mr. Xiao, he is my future husband. I have already been widowed once, and you don’t want me to be a widow again, right?"

Xiao Fengxian was silent, but her fox eyes gradually turned red.

The hands hanging on the sides of his legs were quietly clenched.

He suddenly looked directly at Wei Zi: "When I saw you walking side by side with him, I felt panicked. I have liked you for so many years, but you want me to watch you marry another man. You were once intimate with me. , from now on, I have to do more intimate things with another man... Have you ever thought about my feelings?!"

He is questioning.

But in Wei Zi's mind, Zhou Xianji's pale face lying on the hospital bed repeatedly appeared.

Just now in Jibeigong, before Zhou Xianji fell into coma, he pulled her sleeve and told her that he knew that the mastermind behind the drowning was Xiao Fengxian. He also said that he understood Xiao Fengxian's mood and was grateful for his care for her over the years, so he would not Check him and reassure her.

After he passed out, the doctors said that his heart and lungs were severely damaged and that he might not be able to survive the night. Whether he could survive it all depended on God's will.

Wei Zi closed her eyes, feeling confused.

Zhou Xianji saved her twice.

He was an introverted and boring gourd who refused to mention a word about his past to her. She never knew she owed him so much.

She held back her tears and faced Xiao Fengxian's question and asked: "How do you feel? Mr. Xiao, from the beginning to the end, it seems that you and I are just uncles and sister-in-law, right? Whether I'm married or I like someone else, why should I care about you?" Feelings?!" (End of Chapter)
