Chapter 158
The eunuch seemed to have heard a shocking news.He stumbled into the door and forgot to perform the salute. The eunuch just knelt on the ground and shouted loudly, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's not good!"
Emperor Dong Ling felt that his heart was being entangled even more, "What's wrong! What does it look like to be flustered? It's not like the sky is about to fall."
Even though Emperor Dongling wanted to get angry after hearing what the eunuch said, he didn't have the energy to punish the eunuch.Because he felt that it was difficult to even speak loudly now.
The eunuch didn't care about Emperor Dongling's anger.There was still a panicked expression on his face. For him, the sky was really falling. "The news just came. The whole capital is surrounded by the army."
The murder of a large number of officials in Kyoto has not yet been resolved, and now that the army has surrounded the entire capital, Emperor Dongling gradually feels that he can't breathe.After being furious, Emperor Dongling passed out directly with staring eyes.
Because Emperor Dongling fainted suddenly, he didn't see Xiao Yugang stepping into the imperial study.
"His Royal Highness."
"Order to go down, close the gates of the city, absolutely no one can be let in, and no one can be released."
"Yes."
"There's also the matter of the father being sick and fainting. It's enough to just let a few imperial doctors come over. It's enough to wake people up, no diagnosis and treatment is needed."
"……Yes."
"Block the good news."
"Yes!"
……
The army surrounded the capital for nearly a day, and Emperor Dong Ling woke up in a daze after a day of coma.
"Father, you finally woke up." The first voice Dong Ling heard when he woke up was Xiao Yu's exclamation.
He closed his eyes again tiredly, as if Emperor Dong Ling hadn't recovered from that incident, "Tell me, why did A Li really dare to rebel?"
Whether in a coma or in a sober state, Emperor Dong Ling couldn't figure out the reason why Han Poli would rebel.Because he felt that as an emperor, he would doubt his courtiers, which was a very normal thing.But because of this little suspicion, Han Poli really dared to rebel before Emperor Dongling took back his military power. This fact was really unacceptable to Emperor Dongling.
"Maybe he had the heart of disobedience before." Xiao Yu's eyes suddenly darkened a little when Emperor Dong Ling couldn't see with his eyes closed. "Or maybe, General Han embarked on this road of no return because everyone in the Han family was imprisoned."
"According to you, it's all my fault?" Emperor Dongling opened his eyes in a flash, as if annoyed that Xiao Yu would accuse him.
The moment Xiao Yu didn't meet Emperor Dong Ling's eyes, he immediately knelt down on the ground, "I don't dare. I'm just sharing worries with my father."
"Hmph." Emperor Dong Ling let out a cold snort from his nasal cavity, and then got up from the bed.
Pushing away Xiao Yu's hand that wanted to support him, Emperor Dong Ling got up and walked out. "Ask you, even if you know, you still dare not tell. Why don't I ask the person who dares to tell the truth."
Xiao Yu still knelt on the ground and didn't get up.Looking at the back of Emperor Dongling leaving, Xiao Yu slightly clenched his fists in his sleeves.
……
In an empty palace, a woman in red was sitting.
Bright red, jet-black hair, even sitting in this remote palace for many days, there is no trace of anxiety on the face of the woman in red.
"Miss." Holding a cup of tea, Bai Yi entered the palace deliberately with heavy footsteps. Seeing that Xia Zhi still hadn't recovered from the small celadon vase in her hand, Bai Yi could only remind her.
"Yeah." Xia Zhi pursed her lips tightly, as if answering Bai Yi's words.
Bai Yi put the teacup in Xia Zhi's hand, and said with a little impatience, "Emperor Dong Ling has never appeared once since we entered the palace. It’s still in the plan. It’s just the concubines and concubines outside the door, it’s too annoying.”
Because Xia Zhi entered the palace as a noble concubine, and most of the women in the palace are in a state of avoiding news, so many people want to come to the palace these days to see how Xia Zhi looks like look like.
"Yeah." But no matter how impatient Bai Yi was, Xia Zhi's face was still calm.
Finally putting away the small celadon vase that had been held in her hand before, Xia Zhi looked out at the sky, "Those officials actually did not die in vain."
Bai Yi glanced at Xia Zhi suspiciously, and before he could answer, he heard the sound of propaganda coming from outside.
"The emperor is here!" The eunuch's shrill voice made everyone in the room frown.
Bai Yi glanced at the door in astonishment, and saw a bright yellow figure walking in from a distance, "Didn't it mean that Emperor Dong Ling fainted in a hurry? Why did he rush to our side just after waking up?" Ran."
Xia Zhi frowned slightly, her eyes darkened suddenly, "I'm afraid he also has doubts about Xiao Yu."
Otherwise, Emperor Dong Ling was too impatient.It took too long to send someone to tell her to go to the imperial study, it would be easier for Emperor Dong Ling to come over in person.
"When is it not good to doubt, but at this juncture." Bai Yi listened to Xia Zhi's explanation, and immediately muttered a few words in his mouth.
Seeing Emperor Dong Ling walking towards Xia Zhi with the support of his servant, Xia Zhi's eyes flashed a strange look.
"You all go down." In fact, Xia Zhi couldn't think of two reasons. As soon as Emperor Dongling entered the door, he waved everyone in the room to leave, including the one who had helped him walk when he came. The servant was also kicked out by Emperor Dong Ling.
Emperor Dongling's order made the people in the palace obedient, and Bai Yi also received Xia Zhi's wink, and quickly left the door with the others.
In his sleeve, he secretly pulled off the stopper on the small celadon bottle, and then the crunchiness that had been entwined around Xia Zhi's wrist, followed the medicinal smell emitted by the small celadon bottle, and went directly into the bottle.
Emperor Dong Ling couldn't see everything in Xia Zhi's sleeve.He could only see that Xia Zhi was still sitting there motionless after he entered the door.No salute, not even a sign of speaking.
Emperor Dong Ling was slightly angry in his heart, but when his emotions became agitated, he felt the worry on his chest again. "Presumptuous! Jimo Xia Zhi, don't think that you can be so presumptuous to me because I gave you the position of imperial concubine!"
Emperor Dongling's heart-wrenching pain finally turned into a curse.
"If the emperor is dissatisfied with me, he can take back the title of noble concubine. I don't care much about this thing." Facing Emperor Dongling's anger, Xia Zhi had a look of disapproval.
Taking a deep breath, Emperor Dong Ling felt the anxiety in his chest grow stronger. "Then tell me, what happened when a large number of officials were killed in the capital. What happened when Han Poli led troops to surround the entire capital?"
This is the real reason why Emperor Dong Ling came to find Xia Zhi.
He really couldn't understand why Han Lili would rebel.
Ever since Xia Zhi appeared, Emperor Dongling hadn't lived a few days of comfort.
Emperor Dong Ling saw that Xia Zhi was still sitting there motionless, as if he was not afraid of him at all.All the anger, Emperor Dong Ling could only turn them into a sigh. "If you can help me, I will agree to remove you as a noble concubine, how about it?"
Xia Zhi is really confident now.Because Emperor Dongling didn't dare to touch her for the time being, Xia Zhi was his last leverage against Han Poli.
"Come here and help me." Emperor Dong Ling saw that Xia Zhi ignored him no matter whether he was throwing fire at her or talking to her through a deal, and Emperor Dong Ling gradually had no choice.
Before being supported by his servants, Emperor Dong Ling only walked into the house and asked them to leave.But because Emperor Dong Ling just woke up from a coma, and the whole person is still in a weak state, Emperor Dong Ling only feels a deep exhaustion in his heart, and this kind of exhaustion, he just wants to sit down now Take a breath.
Xia Zhi slightly lowered her eyelids, remained silent for a while, and finally stood up under Dong Lingdi's first resignation, and helped him to sit down.
"Your majesty, have you noticed that you have lost the majesty of the emperor today?" Xia Zhi still put it a little tactfully.
According to what she thought in her heart, Emperor Dongling was really weak today.Once the emperor was subdued in front of someone who had no real power, and there was no special relationship between Xia Zhi and Emperor Dongling, so no matter how you looked at it, Emperor Dongling's behavior felt a little strange.
"I... Tell me, do you want to negotiate a deal with me? I agree." Emperor Dongling slightly clenched his hands hidden in his sleeves.
This is what he did out of desperation.
Because Emperor Dongling had just discovered that Xiao Yu seemed to have almost controlled the entire capital, and Emperor Dongling had no credible people around him who could resist Han Poli.And Han Poli surrounded the entire capital outside. Under such circumstances, the first thing Dongling Emperor thought of was that Xiao Yu and Han Poli wanted to rebel and Xiao Yu wanted to usurp the throne.
Although, this is just his suspicion.
Listening to Emperor Dong Ling's words, the corners of Xia Zhi's lips immediately curled into a mocking arc. "The emperor would rather believe me than your son. Don't you find it ridiculous to say such a thing?"
Xia Zhi let go of the hand that was holding Emperor Dong Ling before, and slowly took two steps back, "Okay, since you want to ask me how to make a deal, then I will make a big deal with you."
Emperor Dongling closed his eyes wearily, "Just say it."
Looking at Emperor Dong Ling's face, the sarcasm in Xia Zhi's eyes became deeper and deeper, "If I asked you to release me from this palace, you must be unwilling. Then the first thing I want to suggest to you is , is to release the Han family who was imprisoned in the prison. Presumably, if you do this, Brother Han will not act rashly. After all, this is what you did when you knew that the soldiers and horses on the border were taken away by Brother Han. Good arrangement."
With a swish, Emperor Dong Ling opened his eyes again.Some cloudy eyes just stared at Xia Zhi straightly.
