There is a black lotus in the deep palace

Chapter 48 A Good Knife
Tang's tent.

When Mrs. Tang saw the father and daughter coming back with blood on their bodies, her expression changed drastically, and she hurriedly dismissed the maids around her and let them into the inner room.

"Old man, don't you say you have something to say to the prince?"

"How did you get hurt?!" She pretended to be shocked.

Tang Zhenxiao sighed and did not speak.

Tang Wanning had no choice but to describe the facts, then lowered her head.

"It's useless to be a daughter, let my father and mother worry!"

Mrs. Tang placed General Tang on the soft couch with a look of resentment, complaining while undressing him.

"You! You are too impulsive!"

"Fortunately, you were injured today. If you hurt the crown prince, how will Ning'er deal with herself in the East Palace?"

"I'm also worried about my daughter... Ouch, Ma'am, please be gentle..." Tang Zhenxiao grinned with a pale face.

The blue and black robe on his body was soaked with blood, and the wound trembled with pain when he moved a little.

Mrs. Tang carefully took it off for him, crying while complaining.

Tang Wanning couldn't bear to watch, turned around with red eyes and went outside.

Standing at the doorway outside the tent, her tears could no longer stop falling down.

In her previous life, she always read novels where the heroine lamented that "once she entered the palace, it was as deep as the sea", and the hero lamented that "the next life will never enter the emperor's house".

She never took it seriously, and even thought they were hypocritical.

But now such a thing happened in front of him, and Chi Guoguo was bloody and unreserved.

She finally wanted to understand how much helplessness these short words contained.

The royal family is as deep as the sea, and once she steps into the door, whether to live or die, good or bad, she can only decide by herself.

No matter how powerful her father was, no matter how many achievements he made, he could not protect her.

Even if the Tian family father and son immediately killed her father, she even had nothing to say.

Ha ha, is it absurd or not?

After waiting for a while, there was finally no movement inside.

Tang Wanning was about to go in to have a look, when she saw A Niang coming out wiping her eyes.

"Auntie? Why do you..."

Mrs. Tang hissed at her, took her hand out of the tent, and found a secluded place, where the mother and daughter sat on the floor.

"Your father is fine. He didn't hurt anything vital. He just bleeds. You don't have to worry!" Madam Tang lowered her eyes to hide the distress in her eyes.

Tang Wanning couldn't help asking.

"Aniang, why did daddy bother the prince? Did someone whisper something in your ear?"

Madam Tang shook her head and sighed.

"No one said anything!"

"It's not that you don't know your father's temper. As soon as you arrive in the capital, you will ask how you are doing!"

"He heard that you were neglected by the prince, how can he swallow this breath, I have tried to persuade him for several days but he still has the opportunity to..."

Tang Wanning frowned, thought carefully and said solemnly.

"Who said my daughter was neglected? My daughter is fine!"

Madam Tang suddenly looked up at her with a rare serious look.

"Ning'er!"

"This time your father was injured and didn't hurt his vitals. It can be seen that His Royal Highness has shown mercy. After you go back, you must not complain!"

"Besides, the crown prince has already decided not to pursue it. This is already an extrajudicial favor, and you must not mess around with the crown prince! Did you hear that?"

Tang Wanning was very entangled, didn't she feel angry?That bastard almost stabbed Father to death, leaving her indifferent?
"Ning'er!" Mrs. Tang held her hand tightly.

"As long as the two of you are doing well, no one will dare to touch the Tang family!"

"Your father and I can rest assured in the Northwest! We must consider the long-term in everything, and I hope you can understand this truth!"

After Mrs. Tang persuaded her for a while, Tang Wanning finally nodded.

"Got it, Mommy! I won't mess around!!"

Mrs. Tang was very pleased: "That's right!"

She hugged her daughter's shoulders and smiled with emotion: "As long as our family is healthy, no one will touch us!"

Tang Waning leaned on A Niang's shoulder, her mind was heavy, but she didn't say anything, she just sighed.

……

Eastern Palace tent.

After Xia Houjue went back, he closed the door, and all the palace people around him were dismissed, even Li Dequan was gone, and he was left alone in the huge tent.

A moment later, a black figure flew in from the dark window on the side of the tent and knelt down in front of him.

"His Royal Highness!"

As soon as Xia Houjue changed from the angry look in front of the crowd just now, his face changed instantly and calmed down.

"How's it going?"

"Return to Your Highness! After the fourth prince came back, he really entered the queen's camp. What exactly did he say? His subordinates are incompetent..."

Xia Houjue didn't care, just waved.

"No problem! You go back and continue to follow up, and report immediately if there is any situation!"

"Yes!"

Heiyan cupped his fists and left in an instant.

Xia Houjue got up and took two steps, staring at the long sword on the sword stand for a while, with complicated eyes, but a faint sneer appeared on the corner of his lips.

……

Queen's camp.

After Xia Houyan went back, she really described what she saw and heard to the queen immediately.

In the end he even sneered:
"Mother, according to my son... the Tang family's pissing nature is not worthy of our praise!"

"It's just a rough warrior with a few soldiers in his hand, so why make a fuss!"

"I feel that our previous worries were a little unnecessary"

If the queen thought about it, she nodded as expected.

"According to what you said... this Tang Zhenxiao really has no brains!"

"That's right!" Xia Houyan sneered.

"It's just that he won a few battles with his brute force. What a powerful person my son thought he was, but now he sees him like that!"

"For such a person, it's good not to pull third brother off the horse, what threat can there be!"

The queen thought for a while, then suddenly narrowed her eyes and said.

"In that case, what do you mean?"

"According to my son, it is better to keep him! In the future, this knife... will definitely have a greater effect!"

"With such a Yue's family, I don't believe that my father can still trust my third brother unconditionally!"

"When the time comes, let's give him a catch!"

The queen nodded thoughtfully.

"Yes!"

"My son is right!"

"If such a Yue family is eliminated now, it will be really painless!"

"Your third brother is still the prince, my son, you still have nothing! And it will be difficult to do anything in the future!"

"This obviously won't work!"

Her eyes suddenly lit up and she was decisive.

"That's all! This matter is over!"

"Such a useful knife cannot be removed!"

"My son, don't worry, the queen mother will take care of this matter, and you don't have to worry about anything!"

"Your father asked you to study hard, so you should study hard, understand?"

"Yes! The son obeys the mother's orders!"

After Xia Houyan finished speaking, he withdrew.

The queen rested on the soft couch with her eyes closed for a while, and when she heard that the emperor was coming back to the camp, she asked someone to tidy up her clothes and jewelry, and greeted her with a smile on her face.

……

On that day, the queen served dinner in the emperor's camp before returning.

I don't know what she said next to the emperor, since then, the emperor has never mentioned the matter of making the Tang family a marquis.
