Empress Jinghua: The eunuch is nine thousand years old

Chapter 186
Isn't General Huwei one of Xiaqin's subordinates, and why doesn't it work?
Xia Zijin shook his head and whispered to himself: "Shengqing said nothing will happen."

Mrs. Liu couldn't help feeling resentful when she heard this, so she gave her a sigh.

"You girl, grandma thinks that you will be foolproof if you find a way. How can you entrust Brother Qi's life to an outsider! Persuade the emperor"

The Liu family naturally didn't know about Xia Shengqing's relationship with Xia Qin, so they couldn't help but think that it was too hasty for Xia Zijin to entrust Liu Anqi's life to an eunuch.At this time, the soft sound of Liu Anqi waking up came through behind the screen, and the Liu family rushed in. Mrs. Liu staggered, and the first one rushed in behind, not daring to approach the doctor who was treating Liu Anqi's wounds , looking carefully, eyes red and swollen from crying.

"Doctor, how is my son?"

Liu Xiangqin asked, as calm as ever, he also had a serious look on this matter.

"Reporting to Mr. Liu, the Eldest Young Master's injury is under control, but..." He glanced at the members of the Liu family, shook his head and sighed, "But the Eldest Young Master's Tetendon doesn't work, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to dress and eat by myself. "

"what."

Mrs. Liu cried even louder, she threw herself on the window edge and began to cry bitterly, while Mrs. Liu's hand holding the scepter trembled slightly, and she actually took two steps back.

Xia Zijin never thought that things would come to this point, she thought that Liu Anqi would be unscathed, she thought that things would be safe and sound as she thought, but now the reality hit her hard like a slap in the face, she felt extremely regretful pole.

Liu Anli helped Mrs. Liu, who had passed out from crying, out of the room, and Liu Xiangqin looked at Liu Anqi, who was still struggling to wake up from a coma and was dripping with sweat, with his hands behind his back, and sighed deeply, full of helplessness and embarrassment. Sadness.

Not only the people of the Liu family couldn't accept the news that Liu Anqi had lost his hands, but the rest of the people in the court heard the news. It would be a pity that the great future of the young master's eldest son went to waste.

Xia Tian leaned halfway on the edge of the chair and listened to the report of the palace servant below, closed his eyes and felt the soft hands of the palace lady behind him kneading on the shoulders and neck, and let out two soft moans.

"But it's a pity, the eldest son of the Liu family is good at wielding spears and knives, if nothing goes wrong, he can be a great general in time, but now that his martial arts are useless, there is nothing to say. "

The palace servants repeatedly nodded in agreement, and the strength in their hands eased up a bit. Raw orchid incense was lit in the incense burner at the side, and wisps of white smoke curled up, which felt a little indescribably comfortable.

"Director Xia, you can't go in! Please let me know."

The attendant at the door uttered embarrassment all the way, blocking Xia Shengqing who had a dark and angry face in front of the hall door.

Without saying a word, Xia Shengqing used some force in her hands to lift up the attendant and push it aside, then lifted the lacquered brocade boots and kicked the palace door open.

Xia Qin heard the yelling outside early in the morning, raised his eyes and saw Xia Shengqing with a gloomy face, sat up lazily, closed his slightly opened robe tightly, cast a glance at him and said presumptuously.

"Director Xia has forgotten what this place is. Even if you are an ally of this prince, you should remember your identity. It is better to observe some rules in front of this prince."

Xia Shengqing's eyes were deeply annoyed at this time, and she didn't care much about Xia Qin's reprimand for his pretentious posture, and said in a calm voice: "The prince wants the slave to remember to obey the rules? Then why did you remember what you promised the slave?"

"Oh?" Xia Tianqin raised his eyebrows, "Boss Xia's words are interesting. The young master of the Liu family heard that he had picked him up last night. The prince promised Xia to save his life, but isn't it good now? ?”

He sat up straight and looked at Xia Shengqing jokingly, as if he didn't feel guilty at all.

"But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has clearly said that he will let the young master of the Liu family go back safe and sound, but now that the tendons in his hands have been severed, it is absolutely impossible for him to practice martial arts in the future. Is this what the Crown Prince calls safe and sound?" Xia Shengqing clenched her fists, The anger in the pupils burst into thin hair.

And Xia Qin didn't seem to care much, got up and smiled lightly, walked around Xia Shengqing and said, "Boss Xia is embarrassing the prince, and you also know that General Huwei is the leader of veterans. Go, his weight in the heart of the father can be said to be first-class. Although the prince is the prince, he is also a junior. It is not easy to save the life of the young master of the Liu family. How can he ask General Huwei to kill him? The murderer of his own son was returned unharmed."

Xia Shengqing was furious. Back then he clearly swore that there would be no mistakes in this matter, but now he changed his face.

"His Royal Highness is planning to deny it? That day, he clearly promised to keep the son of the Liu family safe and sound, but he didn't say that it was this kind of safety that ruined his future. The alliance between you and me is a word of sincerity. The slave's status is low, so naturally I dare not argue with His Highness the Crown Prince, but is it too inhumane for His Highness the Crown Prince to use such a word game to prevaricate the servant?"

Xia Tian paused around his slow walking steps, looked up and down at Xia Shengqing with a firm back, and sneered.

"Prevarication? Could it be that Mr. Xia thinks that the prince has always been kind to you, so he forgot who he is. The prince is a king and you are a minister. There is no difference between superiority and inferiority. When will it be your turn to question the prince's words?"

Before Xia Shengqing could refute, he flicked his sleeves and let out a cold snort, wanting to snatch the door away. Near the door, he looked back at Xia Shengqing and shouted at the guards outside.

"Come and see off the guests!"

After a night of tossing in Liu's house, Liu Anqi's situation finally stabilized. When he woke up, facing the fact that he would never be able to practice martial arts in the future, he couldn't accept it.

Xia Zijin couldn't remember how he got back to the palace.

Everyone in the Liu family was busy taking care of Liu Anqi, and no one cared too much about her. Of course she wanted to make up for something, but after all, she couldn't intervene.

Moshengyuan's palace is still quiet and elegant. She is sitting under the candles, with stacks of secretary Huanzi bringing in from Tianquanshu Pavilion next to her. She is yawning as she looks at it. , can not be sloppy for a moment.

And when Xia Shengqing dragged his somewhat tired body into the Mosheng Garden, the candles in Xia Zijin's room had gradually extinguished slightly, and his eyes were lightly closed while propping up one corner of his forehead.

He sighed, and carefully pulled out the book she was holding loosely in her hand, but he didn't want to wake Xia Zijin up.

She opened her eyes with deep tiredness, but the moment she saw Xia Shengqing's figure, she turned cold again.

"What are you doing here?" She said coldly, tidying up the stack of books on the table without even looking at Xia Shengqing.

Even if there were disputes, Xia Zijin had never treated Xia Shengqing so coldly before.He was a little at a loss, and he opened his mouth but didn't know how to explain.

"How is the young master of the Liu family..." After a moment of silence, Xia Shengqing pursed her lips and said this sentence.

Xia Zijin lowered her eyes, and said flatly, "My life is saved, but it will be difficult to dress and eat by myself in the future."

Xia Shengqing never thought that Liu Anqi's injury would be so serious, seeing Xia Zijin's indifferent attitude towards him, she also understood that Xia Zijin was blaming him for not keeping Liu Anqi well.

He stepped forward and knelt down to hold Xia Zijin's shoulders, and said guiltily, "Princess, listen to me... I was originally..."

"Okay, you don't need to say anything."

Xia Zijin interrupted him and only responded with a cold look.

"I understand, I understand everything." Xia Zijin smiled self-deprecatingly, looked out the window at the birds on the branches and flew away, and took a deep breath.

"I asked you to save my cousin to embarrass you. If I knew this, I shouldn't have listened to you. Even if I was punished by my father, I would rescue my cousin from the dungeon. Even if I would be punished by my father." It is better to be punished by the emperor than to let my cousin ruin the future of the rest of his life."

Her misunderstanding really made Xia Shengqing a little speechless. He shook his head and said, "It's not what the princess thinks, I really want Mr. Liu to come back safe and sound..."

Xia Zijin felt a little ironic when the words came out of his mouth. She knocked off Xia Shengqing's hand on his shoulder, and asked, "Safe and sound? So in your eyes, someone who is neither dead nor maimed is considered safe and sound?" "

Xia Shengqing opened her mouth to explain, but she couldn't reveal the fact that she had been set up by Xia Qin. At this moment, she felt a little shy when faced with Xia Zijin's questioning.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Xia Zijin was even more sure of what she was thinking in her heart. Layers of disappointment flooded her like a tide. It was the helplessness and ambivalence after the trust that she believed deeply in the past was gradually worn away.

"I know I didn't do a good job, and I'm sorry for Mr. Liu's family."

"Heh..." She laughed. She originally thought that although Xia Shengqing worked hard for Xia Tian, ​​at least she was still the person who was sincere to her in the past, but now he will send her away if he doesn't do a good job, so he really treats her as something A three-year-old who doesn't even know?
"It's not that you haven't done well, you just don't want to do well."

That icy look made Xia Shengqing feel as if struck by lightning, and asked shyly, "Princess, what does this mean..."

"What do you mean?" She asked back, "Do you want me to say every word clearly before you admit it? I have been thinking these days, when will I be able to wait for you to confess to me in person, but now that I think about it, maybe I was too naive. Since you planned to hide it from me from the beginning, you probably never thought of letting me know. So what should I call you now, whether it is the boss Xia who is proud of the father, or the prince The celebrity in front of His Highness?"
