Princess Minhui was being escorted by two eunuchs. The other eunuch was holding a whisk in one hand and whipping her with the other. The scene looked quite pitiful.

But there must be something hateful about a pitiful person. Xu Xing withdrew his gaze without even taking a second look and knelt outside the palace to ask to see the emperor.

Soon, he was invited in by the chief eunuch.

In front of the emperor, Xu Zhao and Cao Dongyang were very well-behaved and behaved properly. They just stood there without saying a word, looking quite serious.

Xu Xing withdrew his gaze from the two of them and knelt down to greet them.

"Get up."

The emperor smiled gently, pointed at Xu Zhao and said, "Your brother, your personality is similar to your aunt's."

Empress Shu Guifei is straightforward and open-hearted. She is genuine and unpretentious. She likes something when she likes it and dislikes something when she dislikes it. Her unique personality has won the emperor's favor.

After seeing so much of the same old affectation, the emperor saw Concubine Shu's character as a breath of fresh air.

"Let's just put today's events behind us."

The emperor was still talking about Xu Zhao in the first half of his sentence, but suddenly changed the subject in the second half, which made Xu Zhao and Cao Dongyang anxious.

But with Xu Xing around, the two of them tactfully kept their mouths shut.

Xu Zhao thought it was not his place to speak since his brother was present; Cao Dongyang thought that the Prince of Weiguo would speak more calmly after thinking, so he trusted him.

"Sir, obey the order."

The emperor was very pleased with this, and after saying a few irrelevant words, he sent the three men away.

After leaving the hall, Cao Dongyang asked hurriedly, "Prince, is this the end?"

Xu Xing did not respond to his words, but said: "If the prince has nothing else to say, I will take this little brother away first. We will talk another day."

Eh? ? ? ?

Cao Dongyang pursed his lips and gave up wanting to say something: "Go slowly."

Xu Zhao had a lot of questions to ask, but Xu Xingzuo, who was walking in front of him, didn't seem to want to pay attention to him.

When the two brothers passed by Princess Minhui who had been slapped, Xu Xing left without even looking at her, while Xu Zhao glared at her fiercely.

Only fifty slaps, that's really cheap for her!

Princess Minhui's ears were buzzing from the beating, her cheeks were burning with pain, and her head was dizzy. She had no strength or energy to look back at Xu Zhao.

As soon as the Xu brothers got on the carriage, the King of Zhenxi rushed into the palace.

"Brother, just now..."

"Do you know why His Majesty said that your personality is like that of the Empress?"

Xu Xing interrupted Xu Zhao and asked.

Xu Zhao looked into his elder brother's dark and deep eyes and shook his head in confusion.

"That's because my aunt never dwells on one thing."

His Majesty does not like people who keep talking too much, and Concubine Shu is just not one of them. On the contrary, her "open-mindedness" saves His Majesty a lot of trouble.

Xu Zhao seemed to understand, but also seemed not to understand.

However, today I finally got rid of my anger!

There is ample time.

"Brother, as long as I can help Sister Haoer vent her anger, I will listen to you."

"That's good."

It was rare for Xu Xing to see Xu Zhao so obedient and sensible, and he was very pleased. He reached out and rubbed his brother's head: "Go back first."

"Ah."

The Xu Xing brothers left, but Cao Dongyang didn't.

He looked at Princess Minhui in the distance, clenched his fists, turned around and went back into the hall.

The emperor had just picked up the memorial when he heard the chief eunuch say that Cao Dongyang had come again. He sighed softly and said with a bit of helplessness: "Let him in."

As soon as Cao Dongyang entered the room, he knelt on the ground and pouted, saying, "Uncle Emperor, you can't just let her go..."

"Your Majesty, the King of Zhenxi is asking for an audience outside the palace!"
