Chapter 221

When Zongzheng Xiaoting made a move subconsciously, she also realized the problem, stiffened, and when she was about to retract, she was tightly held by a big gentle hand.

Looking at each other, Zongzheng Xiaoting slightly frowned in embarrassment.

"Do you want to know about this king's past?" Situ Xunxiao didn't let go, but held Zongzheng Xiaoting's hand tightly, and his tiredness could not be concealed in his tone.

She has always been a high-spirited person, and Zongzheng Xiaoting felt a little distressed by the low breath at this moment. She had never understood many things about Situ Xunxiao, but she also understood that anyone, the more burdened they are The more you have, the more cautious you will be.

Thinking about it again, Zongzheng Xiaoting also understood in his heart the rumors about Situ Xunxiao that he had heard in Luozha Kingdom, the backlog was too long, and sometimes, there was nowhere to find the vent.

"I'm indeed a little curious." Zongzheng Xiaoting sighed, "Actually, I've probably heard more rumors about your God of War prince than you."

"It's nothing more than my king's ghosts and ghosts reincarnating, and to restrain my father and my mother." Situ Xunxiao clenched his fist, holding Zongzheng Xiaoting's strength with one hand, and couldn't help tightening up.

Zongzheng Xiaoting broke free slightly, then turned around and got up, staring at the window not far away, and sighed silently, "My lord has been looking for the truth, is it about your mother and concubine, the truth about her death?"

The words were very soft, and even silent sighs were barely audible. "Actually, since the first day I was in the Harmony Palace, I have been very curious about the royal family and about you. Later, in the insinuation, I felt more and more strange. The queen mother is the only relative of the prince, and the prince is also the queen mother. dearest relative, but..."

While hesitating, Zongzheng Xiaoting thought about what kind of tone and euphemistic words should be more suitable.However, Situ Xunxiao said sarcastically, "But this dear relative, is he using this to blackmail the king, so that he doesn't even see the slightest affection?"

"Uh..." Zongzheng Xiaoting was at a loss for words.

"The king cares about it, but the queen mother doesn't necessarily care about it. Or, she cares about her high status, so she is closer to the emperor and Gong Yunluo than the king, who is related by blood. In fact, the king also has some I suspect that the death of the concubine mother was at the price of the agreement between the queen mother and Gong Yunyang." Speaking of this, Situ Xunxiao's eyes were a little confused.

Zongzheng Xiaoting was startled, looking at Situ Xunxiao with some surprise. "You mean to say that the intimacy between the empress dowager and the emperor is due to a secret?"

"Or maybe." Situ Xunxiao nodded, "The empress dowager and my concubine mother have a very deep relationship, and when she was only a empress, although she treated all princes equally and kindly, she was never so close. However, after the death of the mother and concubine in the harem, not only many concubines were involved, but also the relationship with the emperor was as close as a mother and child. This point has always been unknown to this king. Pointing, all traced back to Lei Yue, and there was no further progress."

Situ Xunxiao spoke very calmly, but Zongzheng Xiaoting still felt the pain of depression.

Between the lines, in fact, the contradiction in his heart can be vaguely seen, the only close relative, but there is a suspicion that cannot be ignored. For many years, he knew that the cause of death of his dear and beloved mother was different, but he was helpless and unable to track down the murderer. The stinging pain will only make people blame themselves for being a child of others when they dream back at midnight, making no achievements, making it difficult for loved ones to rest in peace.

"Situ Xunxiao, all the misfortunes that have happened to you are not just about your mother and concubine, are they?" Zongzheng Xiaoting thought of Situ Xunxiao eating insects without changing his face in the palace, thinking about it. After falling off the cliff, his self-sufficiency and everything should not be what a rich and well-clothed prince would have. No matter how this prince is regarded as a monster, he may need to increase his hands.

Zongzheng Xiaoting's words made Situ Xunxiao chuckle, "I said before that it's not good for women to be too smart, but sometimes, it saves trouble."

Hearing some arrogant and chauvinistic words, Zongzheng Xiaoting rolled his eyes, found a seat and sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, looked at Situ Xunxiao, and signaled that this princess has plenty of time, listen You elaborate.

Situ Xunxiao was slightly relieved of his original mood because of Zongzheng Xiaoting's provocative gaze. He walked up to Zongzheng Xiaoting's side, picked up the half-drinked water, and drank it directly. Seeing the awkward expression on her face, Situ Xunxiao's mood became better and better. "The change in the king's eyes started with the passing away of the king's father and the concubine mother. Overnight, with the change in the eyes of the king, the king's father died suddenly, and the concubine mother was poisoned to death. Everything happened on its own. Since then, and because of this, all the rumors that have been raging have naturally followed me like a shadow, but unfortunately, any clues are very slight."

Zongzheng Xiaoting looked at Situ Xunxiao, but he was a little surprised. Will the color of his eyes change?Can the color as deep as the sea be artificially changed?And such a change is indeed, unbelievable, with such a change, naturally, all doubts and dislikes will only come to him.

"Then..." Zongzheng Xiaoting bit his lips, "Have you endured many harsh environments?"

"Pursuit or assassination?" Situ Xunxiao sneered, "I don't know for a long time, what is the harsh environment. Or, I should also be grateful, the man behind the scenes who can't wait to kill the grass will be only eight years old. This king's design was discarded in the pile of hungry wolves, which gave this king vigilance."

Regarding the past, Situ Xunxiao only downplayed it, but when he heard that it was Zongzheng Xiaoting, he was terrified when he heard it.
eight years old?Heap of hungry wolves?

In Zongzheng Xiaoting's mind, it is not difficult to imagine such a scene. An eight-year-old boy was maliciously abandoned there. How many miracles does it take to survive?

Facing Zongzheng Xiaoting's silence, Situ Xunxiao smiled, "This king has a hard life, there are gains and losses."

The resembling words of comfort did not relieve Zongzheng Xiaoting's frowning, she frowned and asked with suspicion, "Is the pile of hungry wolves you are talking about handed over from the four kingdoms?" The Valley of the Dead?"

Zongzheng Xiaoting's words made Situ Xunxiao twitch his brows, "It seems that you really know a lot."

"Because this princess pays close attention to the regent. Not long ago, I heard that the regent once fell into a disaster in the Valley of Souls. It is said that there are poisonous snakes and hungry wolves there. According to the time calculation, it seems to be about the same age as the prince." Zongzheng Xiao Ting stared at Situ Xunxiao and spoke slowly.
