away from the heart

Chapter 141 Exploring the Hall of Valor 3
Xue Yao was leading Ouchi's guards to patrol past, and hurried over to inquire upon seeing this.Su Guifei burst into tears: "Commander Xue, you came just in time. Princess Chuyue actually wore a red dress on the anniversary of the death of the first emperor, committing a crime of disrespect; this Princess Xizhao not only helped her, but even hurt people at will in the palace. Hurry up and arrest them both!"

Holding the saber in his hand, Xue Yao bowed to Concubine Su Gui and said, "Your Majesty, be safe and don't be impatient. The status of the few are noble, and the subordinates can't make the decisions. The emperor still needs to decide."

"What?" Concubine Su Gui was furious, the hairpin on her bun was crumbling, "Don't you even listen to what I say?"

Xue Yao said neither humble nor overbearing: "Xue Yao is the commander of the guards in the palace, and only obeys the emperor's orders, imperial concubine, please."

The subordinates led by Xue Yao took a step back and made way for a passage. Concubine Su Gui was so angry that she pointed at Xue Yao's nose and cursed: "Well, Xue Yao, you all wear a pair of trousers. I'll wait!" After speaking, he led a group of maids to leave aggressively.

Chuyue quickly grabbed Na Xi's hand, the palm of which was slightly red.

"How is it? Does your hand hurt?"

"It's okay!" Na Xi shook her hand, "I hit her too hard just now."

Xue Yao shook his head helplessly, unable to bear to look directly at him.

"You two, tell me what's going on?"

Chuyue said, "It happened because of me, and I am willing to bear it alone."

"No!" Na Xi interrupted her, "It's obvious that I hit the person, how can I let you bear the consequences?"

"But you are here to help me!"

"I'm not! I'm willing."

The two started arguing with each other.

Na Xiqi said, "Are you a fool? Not to mention so many people watching, just say that the emperor will not punish me if he wants to get the black iron ore. What crime are you taking for me? Isn't it messy enough?"

"Oh!" Chuyue suddenly realized, "Yes, what you said makes sense, and you were the one who hit it."

Seeing the endless bickering between the two, Xue Yao shook his head irritably and left.

Na Xi sneaked a glance at Xue Yao's leaving back, and smiled faintly.

Sitting in the imperial study, the emperor was very upset.Xizhao's mission this time is to send Naxi to marry him, and to negotiate the matter of Xuantie Mine.

The method of smelting the black iron ore is the top secret of Xizhao. Even if Nansang sent troops to occupy the black iron ore and didn't know how to smelt it, it would be just a piece of scrap iron.Xizhao pinpointed this key point, and the lion opened his mouth, bluntly demanding to break away from the status of a vassal state and become a country of equal brothers with Nansang, otherwise he would threaten with swords.The negotiation was deadlocked for a long time, but the other party refused to let go.Thinking of the arrogant face of envoy Dortu, he felt chest tightness and shortness of breath.

He also heard that Concubine Su had a dispute with Princess Xizhao and was begging him to make decisions outside. The emperor waved his hand impatiently and said: "How can she add trouble recently! Tell her to go back, see you!"

Eunuch Gao stood aside, and when he saw this, he hurriedly presented a golden pill: "This is a new golden pill made by the national teacher, the emperor takes it first to calm down."

After taking the golden elixir, Fang felt better, and sighed, "Today is the anniversary of the late emperor's death. Prepare yourself, and I will go to Yinghua Hall in person later. May the spirits of our ancestors in heaven help me to be safe in Nansang." Get through this."
