away from the heart

Chapter 136 Flowing Clouds and Flying Snow 1
Xingchen came forward to protect Chuyue, and pretended to smile helplessly: "Sister Huang, it's a good thing that the envoy didn't blame you for disturbing the embassy because of your mischievousness, why don't you thank Princess Naxi soon?"

Chuyue came to her senses and thanked vaguely.Na Xi nodded lightly: "It's just a small matter, I haven't been offended. It's important to go to see Emperor Nansang first, this...Princess Chuyue, please escort her back by yourself."

I saw Chuyue step by step, being supported on the horse by someone, and looked back frequently.Riding on the horse, Na Xi felt suspicious and frowned unconsciously.

Chuyue failed to escape and was sent back to the Canary Palace.After waiting restlessly for a long time, when it was time for the emperor to go down to court, Eunuch Gao came to see him again.Chuyue gritted her teeth and followed her as if she were dead.

The emperor had already heard the commotion at the gate of the palace, and his face was livid: "Is there any king in the world? Where do you think you can escape with your little ability?"

Chuyue knelt in the middle of the imperial study room, lowered her head calmly: "I just want to survive."

"Oh?" The emperor got up, stood with his hands behind his back, and stared at Chuyue's every move, "Could it be that you dreamed that your life was in danger last night? Didn't I ask you to ask Xi Zhaoguo if he would turn his back on you again?" ?”

"I didn't dream about anything. I'm not like the Great Master. I don't know how to control the birthstone. I don't know when I will have this prophecy dream, nor what exactly I can predict." Chuyue raised her head and stared at the emperor. She has called her father's man for many years, even though she has been like a bright mirror since she was a child, knowing that the emperor doesn't want to see her, she never expected that he would treat her life like nothing.

There were tears in Chuyue's eyes, and her heart was ashamed: "This is my last chance, do you have the heart to let me die like this?"

"A total of twelve times, you only have the last one left?" The emperor was startled again, and slapped the book case.

Chuyue nodded, and then sneered, "It's a death anyway, instead of wasting the blood swallows of the father every night, it's better to let the son smash his head to death here." After speaking, he stood up and went to the weighing room in the imperial study room. Liang rushed forward.

"What nonsense is the princess talking about!" Eunuch Gao exclaimed, and two young eunuchs immediately stepped forward to restrain Chuyue.Eunuch Gao walked up to the emperor, and said in a low voice, "Don't be impatient, Your Majesty, don't forget that the Grand Master was forced to..."

The emperor changed his face: "Then what do you say?"

"The old slave thought, the princess said that she got the birthstone for no reason and didn't know how to control it, so it should be true. Otherwise, she would have used the birthstone for herself all these years. Now that the birthstone is in the princess, the great master of the country The whereabouts of the hand scroll that records the method of controlling the birthstone has long been lost, if she is really forced to death, wouldn't there be no hope for her?"

The emperor was persuaded by Eunuch Gao, smiled and gave him a cup of tea, and said kindly: "Yue'er, I have thought about it carefully before, it was the father's fault before. It's just that the matter of Xizhao's envoy is related to the fate of the Nansang country. This makes me anxious, you won't blame the emperor, will you?"

Chuyue looked at the steaming cup of tea in front of her, without saying a word.

The emperor sighed, and said earnestly: "Father is the ruler of a country, and there are many helplessness. Once the Xizhao Iron Mine comes out, it will pose a great threat to Nansang. It seems that you are asking you to predict the safety of your father. Isn't this a divination? What about the safety of the world? Do you understand that?"

Chuyue lowered her head, she had just escaped from life and death, and she had a chance to breathe for a while, she didn't want to listen to any excuses from her father.

"Let's put it this way," the emperor continued, "Xue Yao once had an elder brother named Xue Mu who was brave and good at fighting. If he could go to the battlefield, he would definitely make great achievements for me, but I just kept him in the palace. Do you know why?"

When Chuyue heard it, she hurriedly raised her head.

"My son doesn't know."

The emperor shook his head, and his tone was full of vicissitudes: "If the two brothers are allowed to go out together, it means that the power will fall to his Xue family. I dare not take this risk."

"Then... what happened to Xue Mu in the end?"

"I am also very helpless, so I had no choice but to detain him in the palace as a hostage in the name of the commander of the guards, but who knew that this stupid boy was loyal and left just to protect the throne of the former emperor." The emperor's expression was full of regret, " If he is still alive, can I still worry about Xi Zhao?"

Chuyue carefully observed her father. After hearing these words, she began to hesitate. At this time, she was unable to determine whether Xue Mu's death was related to her father.

Eunuch Gao echoed from the side, "Princess Chuyue, at least you should say something to the emperor, the emperor has never been so confiding with others."

Chuyue was very vigilant, after looking at Eunuch Gao, he fell on the emperor again, and knelt down on the ground again with a plop.

"Anyway, I won't drink Guanyan anymore. If I want to kill or cut, I will let my father deal with it."

The emperor smiled lovingly, and called Eunuch Gao to help Chuyue up.

"Stupid child, the emperor knows that you only have one last time, so how could you force others to make things difficult for you?"

When Chuyue heard this, she felt relieved a little, only to hear the emperor say again: "It's been a long time, and Yue'er must be exhausted, so go back to the palace to recuperate."

She was about to get up to leave, but she heard a young eunuch report that the princess of Xizhao Naxi asked to see her.

Naxi went to the hall and met the emperor.The emperor smiled and said, "The Princess has already visited the Honglu Palace. Is everything satisfactory? The Xizhao Mission has been exhausted all the way, and it is time to take a good rest. I have already arranged to clean up the mission for the mission at night." .”

"That's why I came here. The Honghe Palace is very good, but..." Naxi glanced at the emperor and smiled, "I'm not afraid of the emperor's jokes, my accompanying uncles and elders have always been very strict with me. , it is very inconvenient to get in and out.”

Princess Xizhao came here on purpose to choose a marriage partner from the Nansang Dynasty.The emperor understood: "The princess' intention is..."

"I thought, now that I have finally come to Nansang, if it is convenient, I would like to trouble the emperor to arrange another residence for me. If you can send another guide to show me the customs of Nansang, that would be great But that's all."

"It's all small things, of course it's okay. Does the princess have anything fancy?"

Naxi's eyes fell on Chuyue: "It's a coincidence, I just met Princess Chuyue at the gate of the palace, and I hit it off very well. Why don't you let me live with her."
