cold hearted son-in-law

In the main tent, the emperor sat on the main seat, and two personal eunuchs stood beside him.The crown prince is sitting in the lower left position, with red gauze wrapped around his arm, Xiao Wei is kneeling in the tent, King Wu is standing next to Xiao Wei, Prime Minister Qin and General Hong are standing on the left and right sides of the tent, and there are two rows beside him A total of twelve guards with swords.When Chu Yunxi and the eldest princess came, there was no sound in the tent.

"Gao Yang pays respects to his father, may his father be blessed and healthy."

"Yun Xi kowtowed to the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live."

The eldest princess and Chu Yunxi saluted together, and they hadn't seen each other for several months, but the emperor appeared to be several years older than before, with a sallow complexion, and it was obvious that both Qi and blood were deficient.

The emperor looked back and forth between the two of them with sharp eyes, and after a long time he said calmly, "Pingshen."

When Xie En got up, the two glanced at each other, then glanced at the people in the tent, then straightened their faces and stood respectfully. No one spoke for a while, and the silent needle drop could be heard in the tent.

"I called you to be dumb?" the emperor said coldly.

Chu Yunxi looked at the eldest princess, then at Xiao Wei who was still kneeling, so he could only bow his head and salute, "I'm afraid, I don't know why the emperor summoned the minister so urgently, please tell the emperor clearly."

"I don't know? The kneeling person is your apprentice?" the emperor asked coldly.

Chu Yunxi secretly watched the emperor's face, listened carefully to his tone of voice, and felt a very bad feeling in his heart, so he nodded slowly and said: "Return to the emperor, this person is indeed Chu Xiaowei, my apprentice of Chu Yunxi, if you accidentally provoke him What's the matter, I ask the emperor to take care of her youth and recklessness, and punish me..."

"Dare to hurt the prince when you are young and reckless?" The emperor slammed the table and shouted angrily.

King Wu, who was beside Xiaowei, held his head high and said, "Father, the crown prince was injured by my son, and it has nothing to do with others. My son is willing to bear all the responsibilities."

"Nizi, shut up!" King Wu's words were tantamount to adding fuel to the flames. The emperor glared at King Wu and said, "Your brother and foot are injured, and you don't want to care about them. Instead, you will blame him for the crime. You dare to contradict me. Those who are unkind and unfilial, go back!" thought about it."

Chu Yunxi's words were interrupted, but he didn't seem to hear King Wu's words. He looked up at the furious emperor, and then at the silent prince. His eyes were cold, but he understood in his heart that the prince's injury, no matter whether it was caused by Xiao Wei or not. Why, but still bowed his head and said: "Although Xiaowei and the prince are not familiar, they have met several times, and the relationship is still close. I don't know why they hurt the prince by mistake?"

King Wu didn't leave either, he stood stubbornly where he was, and looked up at Crown Prince Huangfu Chengqian upon hearing this.Seeing this, the prince had to get up, and then said hesitantly: "It was an accidental injury while playing. I was not feeling well in the hot and humid weather in the south, so I went to Miss Xiaowei to get a prescription to get rid of dampness. At that time, Miss Xiaowei was compiling medical books. , Gu was curious, wanted to take a look, and then...stumbled over the table, and... bumped into Miss Xiaowei..."

"Accidentally injured by playing around? It was injured by a dagger!" The emperor snorted coldly, did not let the prince continue, but looked at Chu Yunxi and said: "Who gave her the courage to dare to attack the prince? Will it be possible in the future? Want to kill me too?"

Chu Yunxi didn't believe the crown prince's words at all. Xiaowei compiled the medical book under her instruction. Because Xiaowei had nothing to do, she often followed Chu Yunxi. Chu Yunxi watched Xiaowei's acupuncture and medical skills. She was also taught by Xiao Yichen and learned the secret recipes of medicinal food to keep her healthy, and Lin Qi explained to her the world's poisons, combining three schools of thought. In terms of medical skills, the name of being a medical fairy is worthy of the name, so she asked her to write This medical book will be passed on to future generations.Two days ago, when Chu Yunxi went to Xiaowei to talk about King Wu's proposal for marriage, he also helped her add the treatment methods for smallpox and "zombie disease" in the book. "Zombie disease" is what is called diabetes in modern times. The method may not have the technology now, but if the treatment method is passed on to future generations and researched in advance according to this method, more people may be able to be cured.

But it's only been two days, and this happened, she didn't know when the prince became curious about medical books.And the emperor actually wanted to use this incident to suppress her with 'unnecessary' charges?Chu Yunxi looked up and saw the emperor's cold eyes looking at her, like a wolf staring at its prey, she was so shocked that her whole body felt cold, her heart sank, there was a cold killing intent in these eyes, she actually wanted to her life!

"Father, calm down, I wonder how the prince is injured?" the eldest princess beside him suddenly said.

Chu Yunxi woke up suddenly, restrained the vigilance in his eyes, relaxed his already tense body, and returned to a respectful look, knelt down to plead guilty: "I dare not."

The emperor just stared at Chu Yunxi who was kneeling coldly, and didn't say anything else.

Seeing this, the prince hurried out and replied: "Don't worry, Huang Jie, she will recover after a period of recuperation."

The eldest princess ignored the prince, and only watched the face secretly, paying attention to the emperor's expression and behavior. When she saw the corner of the emperor's mouth slightly raised and looked at the kneeling Chu Yunxi, there was a gloomy look in his eyes, so her face sank slightly, and she lowered her head. Frowning and pondering, he looked at Xiao Wei, then at Chu Yunxi, and remained silent.

The tent became quiet again for a while, Chu Yunxi and Xiao Wei knelt quietly, King Wu and Princess Chang stood next to each other, no one spoke again.

The emperor's face was ashen, and he glanced at everyone in the tent, and finally stayed on Prime Minister Qin for a while before looking away.

Prime Minister Qin could only get out of line, saluted the emperor and said: "Report to the emperor, this woman hurt the crown prince, the evidence is convincing, according to the laws of China, she should be sentenced to death."

The emperor nodded, looked at the person still kneeling silently and said: "Then drag it out and chop it up." As soon as the words fell, the guards with swords on both sides listened to the order, and two of them approached Xiao Wei.

"The crown prince was injured by this king. If the father wants to behead, he should behead his son." King Wu immediately stepped forward to block the guard when he saw the guard approaching. After speaking loudly, he bent his knees and knelt heavily on the ground.

"Father, it was just an accidental injury, please forgive Miss Xiaowei." Upon hearing this, the prince immediately bowed his fists and begged for mercy.

Chu Yunxi looked at the two brothers, and turned his head to Xiao Wei speechlessly, Xiao Wei was also looking at her, his eyes met each other, Xiao Wei curled his lips into a faint smile, his eyes were calm, as if all the outside world had nothing to do with her , I don't know whether I am indifferent to life or death or I know that I will die, Xiao Wei smiled lightly, calm and safe.

"My Majesty, I am indeed guilty of accidentally injuring the crown prince, but I don't know why a weak woman is forced to use a sword to hurt others?" Chu Yunxi asked in a calm tone, seemingly casually, but he was restless in his heart. Since entering the account, the emperor stared at her like a knife, obviously with ulterior motives, no matter who is right or wrong in this matter, the emperor will not let Xiao Wei go, and even implicate her in it.Now she can only find a way to procrastinate first, even if Xiao Wei is sent to death row, as long as she has time to plan, she can also come up with a plan to rescue her.

"Then I have to ask your apprentice." The emperor seemed to be looking at Chu Yunxi like a trapped beast, with deep interest in his eyes.

"Reporting to the emperor, the prince went straight into Xiaowei's camp, and was indeed accidentally injured by Xiaowei. Xiaowei was willing to accept the crime without any complaints, but this matter has nothing to do with my master. Master has a heart for all people, and he is benevolent in treating the people, saving the king and the people. , the emperor is known as a benevolent monarch, and the law is strictly enforced. Since the guilty are punished, why don't the meritorious be rewarded? Could it be that Xiao Wei has long expected that Xiao Wei will hurt the prince, so he has been waiting for this opportunity for a long time?" Xiao Wei said with a slight smile Every word punishes the heart.

"Presumptuous! Chu Yunxi, you are so proud of yourself, even your apprentice is extremely arrogant, do you take me seriously?" The emperor shouted angrily, his eyebrows became ferocious.

After hearing Xiao Wei's words, Chu Yunxi's heart skipped a beat. This is really like lighting a lamp in the toilet - looking for death!Just about to say something to save her, but when she heard what the emperor said, she couldn't say anything, so she just gave Xiaowei a wink, to signal her not to act rashly, although she really didn't take the emperor seriously, but she didn't rebel and kill him either. Jun's mind, so I still have to bow down and be small, and swallow my breath.

Xiao Wei looked up at the furious emperor as if she hadn't seen it, and looked at the emperor and the prince contemptuously with a smile on her lips.

The eldest princess looked at Xiao Weiwei with a strange look in her eyes, but she still didn't say a word.

"Who deserves to be blamed? Naturally, I know. A little girl who sows discord between the monarch and his ministers, and maliciously speculates on my will, deserves death!" Enraged by Xiao Wei, the emperor shouted furiously, and immediately waved his hand to signal the guards to do it.

"Your Majesty, I have only one apprentice, and I will only have one in this life. If the Emperor really wants to kill, please give me a whole body." Chu Yunxi was neither sad nor happy. After speaking, he knelt his head on the ground and bowed , all over the ground, respectful and sincere, forced back the tears that were about to fall from his eyes.

The emperor looked at Chu Yunxi, and then at King Wu who was about to speak again. It seemed that he knew that talking too much was useless, and everyone fell silent.

"Okay, come and give me some wine." The emperor finished his sentence, but after a cup of tea, the father-in-law brought a small wine pot and a cup to Xiao Wei's side.

"This king will drink for you." King Wu's eyes were red, he grabbed the bottle and was about to drink it, Xiao Weiwei blocked it, shook his head with a smile, took the wine in King Wu's hand, and finally looked back at Chu Yunxi seriously With one glance, as if to remember her in his mind, he smiled and directly raised the wine bottle and drank it down, and said to Chu Yunxi, "Master."

Chu Yunxi didn't look at Xiao Wei, but knelt quietly, his hands propped on the ground had bulging veins, but in his ears he could still hear Xiao Wei whispering and wailing.It seemed that after a long time, someone pulled her up and then dragged her away. She was dazed and embarrassed, and never dared to look at Xiao Weiyi.

Chu Yunxi, who had just left the main tent, gasped for breath before he came, Lin Ye rushed over on a fast horse with a torch in his hands, and when he saw Chu Yunxi was overjoyed, he immediately dismounted and ran over, pulling her sleeves He hurriedly said: "Lin Qi... something happened to Lin Qi, Li Mo said he was a traitor, and he was chased to the edge of the cliff."

Chu Yunxi seemed to come to his senses suddenly, hearing the names of Lin Qi and Li Mo, his heart skipped a beat, and he immediately asked, "Where are they? Go, take me there." After speaking, he pulled Lin Ye back and ran away, The eldest princess on the side yelled several times, and she also ran away as if she had never heard of it.

The eldest princess watched the two people who were riding a horse disappear into the night, and immediately asked a follower to go back to lead them. She first led a few people to chase after them on horseback.

The mountain road was rugged and narrow, steep and difficult to walk, and it was even more thrilling in the night. After the horse's foot was injured, the two had no choice but to abandon the horse and walk up the mountain.

But it was still a step too late, Shi Ze cried out heart-piercingly, circling on the top of the cliff in the night, especially shrill and piercing.

Chu Yunxi was as crazy as he didn't need a torch to light him, he rushed upwards. Not far away, under the light of several torches on the edge of the cliff, Shi Ze held Lin Qi who was bleeding profusely. Armored soldiers holding torches and long knives, bows and crossbows, behind them is the abyss.

"Stop the bleeding, hurry up." Chu Yunxi rushed forward, clutching the wound on Lin Qi's neck, and said in a hurry, he tore off a piece of his shirt sleeve, and went to stop the bleeding for Lin Qi.

Li Mo led his soldiers and watched from a distance, neither approaching nor retreating, but blocking their way of life.

"No... don't... don't need to work hard, listen to me." Lin Qi held Shi Ze tightly with one hand, he looked at Shi Ze, and tried to grab Chu Yunxi with the other hand, his voice was weak when he spoke .

Chu Yunxi stared at him blankly, the wound on his neck was too deep, and he was too weak to recover, Chu Yunxi held his other hand and nodded with tears in his eyes.

Lin Qi gently shook his hand, signaling Chu Yunxi to approach.Chu Yunxi put his ear close to Lin Qi's mouth, only to hear Lin Qi gasp in pain and said: "Someone wants to kill us, save Shi Ze, you must save him."

"Okay, okay, I will. Who is that person? Who is it? Tell me who it is?" Chu Yunxi looked at Lin Qi and agreed, tears streaming down his face.

Lin Qi shook his head slowly, looked at Shi Ze, a gentle smile appeared on his indistinguishable face, but looked extraordinarily bleak, his lips opened and closed a few times, Shi Ze looked at the shape of his lips, tears dripped Shi Ze said with a sob in his hands, "I love you too." Tears welled up after speaking.

Lin Qi's hand wanted to touch Shi Ze, but halfway down, it fell down powerlessly. Shi Ze grabbed his hand again with a dull expression, as if he still couldn't accept the fact in front of him.

Chu Yunxi looked at Shi Ze's appearance, and wanted to pull him, so that he would not be sad. As soon as he stretched out his hand, Shi Ze suddenly raised his head and looked over. He looked at Chu Yunxi, his tears were still wet, he sucked Nose, and said in a hoarse voice: "They say Ah Qi is a traitor, do you think Ah Qi is?"

"No." Chu Yunxi said, shaking his head.

"Why is that person holding your token? Chu Yunxi!" Shi Ze said in a calm tone, word by word.

Chu Yunxi looked at Shi Ze and was speechless to answer, but Shi Ze said slowly and decisively: "Chu Yunxi, from now on, we will cut off our friendship and justice."

"I..." Chu Yunxi sat on the ground weakly, unable to say anything.

Shi Ze picked up Lin Qi and walked towards Li Mo step by step. Li Mo didn't stop him, took the torch by himself, and walked towards Chu Yunxi who was still sitting on the edge of the cliff.

"Is Lin Qi a traitor?" Chu Yunxi looked at Li Mo who was approaching and asked.

"He released a flying pigeon late at night, and the flying pigeon was flying towards the capital." Li Mo replied calmly.

"Have you stopped it?" Chu Yunxi asked again.

"No." As Li Mo said, he took out a handkerchief and handed it over. Chu Yunxi's hands were sticky with blood, and his face was full of tears.

Chu Yunxi didn't answer, and continued to ask: "Did you ask Lin Qi? Why did you push him to the cliff?"

"Ready to ask, Lin Qi ran away with Shi Ze when he saw people approaching, we chased him here." Li Mo replied, looked around and said: "The night is cold, let's go back and talk about it first."

Chu Yunxi stood up, but did not leave, looked at Abyss and said, "If he runs away, you will kill him? What evidence do you have to prove that he is a traitor?"

"In special times, it is better to kill by mistake than let it go." Li Mo's tone was calm, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with this matter.

Chu Yunxi grabbed Li Mo's collar and pulled it to the edge of the cliff. A few rocks were kicked down the abyss and fell down without a sound. Xi looked at each other, Chu Yunxi stared into Li Mo's eyes and asked, "Who ordered you?"

Li Mo looked at Chu Yunxi, said with a smile on his face, "Chu Yunxi, you should stand above ten thousand people, strategizing, you should live a magnificent life, attracting everyone's attention, you should be like that."

"How I live has nothing to do with you, who ordered you? Say it!" Chu Yunxi clenched his hands tightly, the plainness on his face turned ferocious, and his eyes were blood red.

"It's Huangfuzheng, let's cooperate?" Li Mo laughed while looking at Chu Yunxi.

Chu Yunxi froze for a moment, then remembered that this was the emperor's name, looked at Li Mo and sneered, his face was livid, his eyes were full of murderous intent, and his hands were accumulating strength, ready to push Li Mo into the abyss.

"Chu Yunxi." The eldest princess called her from behind and ran towards her. While Chu Yunxi was in a daze, she immediately reached out and grabbed the clothes on Chu Yunxi's back, pulling them both back.

Chu Yunxi glanced at the two, and then looked at the road. Shi Ze had long since disappeared with Lin Qi in his arms. Remembering what she promised Lin Qi, he ignored the two and hurriedly chased after them.
