Female martial arts fanatics only love to fight, while men fight for their lives.

Naturally, someone reported the news of Lou Xiao's entry into the palace to Youshan King Xiao Zhengdu and the Queen.

"She went to the King of Hanhai?" Xiao Zhengdu glanced at the empress after hearing this. "She is sad. Why don't you go and serve her well?"

When the Queen heard that Lou Xiao went to Xiao Zhengze to mourn immediately, she softened her heart.

There is affection between the two of them.

This group of people have said too many bad things about Lou Xiao, and she is tired of listening to them.

But we can't be too partial this time, otherwise it won't look good.

She waved her hand and asked everyone to leave. "We will discuss this matter later. Don't say any more."

Judging from the eyes of many people, His Majesty is determined to protect Duke Zhenguo Lou Xiao.

"Your Majesty..." She opened her mouth to persuade him again, but the Queen's face turned ugly.

"Any objections?"

Although she was young, the Queen was still the ruler of a country. Those who relied on their age finally became weaker.

Only Grand Tutor Peng, who had a special relationship with His Majesty, continued to persuade him.

"Your Majesty, there is no order without rules! If she sets a precedent and escapes punishment, won't more people follow suit and take advantage of your Majesty's favor to do evil?!"

By then, we still have to say that the current Majesty is a tyrant and has lost the trust of his subjects.

"I understand." After all, Grand Tutor Peng had taught her before, so the empress still gave him some face and did not refute him again.

Grand Tutor Peng knew when to stop and retreated with the other officials, not forgetting to glare at Youshan King Xiao Zhengdu at the end.

Xiao Zhengdu was so angry that he almost laughed.

He says that he doesn't allow others to become spoiled by his favor, but isn't Master Peng doing the same thing?

Your Majesty, thinking of the old friendship, he feels more and more that he can influence His Majesty's will?

The Queen saw their quarrel and said, "He is old, why bother with him?"

Xiao Zhengdu snorted and said, "Royal sister, being older doesn't mean you are right."

The queen shook her head and stood up. "Let's go and burn some incense for him and see Xiao Xiao."

Xiao Zhengdu nodded and nodded, then followed the Queen and her entourage to the palace of King Hanhai.

Without a brother who had been his enemy since childhood, the closer Xiao Zhengdu got to the funeral, the more he forgot about the quarrels and hurtful words that Xiao Zhengze had said to him.

The two have been quarreling for so many years, and they seem to dislike each other, but there is still some affection between them.

At first, Xiao Zhengze was afraid that Lou Xiao would change after not seeing her for a few years, and that she would be as promiscuous as those noble ladies in the capital.

So he found a way to let Xiao Zhengdu go and try, and Xiao Zhengdu went.

Knowing that Li Huaiqing had some feelings for Lou Xiao, Xiao Zhengdu took the initiative to cause trouble for Li Huaiqing, because he couldn't stand him coveting the person Xiao Zhengze liked.

Of course, some of it was for his own sake. He could just compete with Xiao Zhengze, but outsiders were not allowed to interfere.

I thought he and Xiao Zhengze would be awkward like this for the rest of their lives, but who would have thought that they would suddenly be gone.

Xiao Zhengdu was not mentally prepared for a moment, and Lou Xiao must be the same, right?

He saw Lou Xiao's back as she sat in front of Xiao Zhengze's coffin, and wanted to ask her what had happened between them.

He and the empress burned incense for Xiao Zhengze, and said a few words to the monks who were chanting scriptures before being sent away. Only three of them were left, facing the unnaturally quiet coffin.

Lou Xiao seemed to have just reacted at this moment. He knelt down facing the Queen and looked up at her.

"Your Majesty, I am guilty."

The Queen said calmly with her hands behind her back, "This matter is not yet clear. What are you doing?"

"I asked to be imprisoned, and I don't want to embarrass Your Majesty."

Lou Xiao's words shocked Xiao Zhengdu so much that he almost jumped up, "Xiao Xiao! What nonsense are you talking about!"

"I am serious."

Lou Xiao seemed to have thought a lot, but now that she was talking about it one by one, she was indeed asking for something, not retreating to advance.

"To calm the people, Your Majesty, please build a prison and imprison me there."

Xiao Zhengdu screamed, "Lou Xiao! You're crazy!"

She looked into the Queen's eyes, and had many questions she wanted to ask but didn't dare to. She could only test whether her senior sister knew about her situation in this way.

"Your Majesty, I may not be able to control myself."

Xiao Zhengdu suddenly lost his voice.

The Queen looked at her for a long time before speaking.

"Pass on my order to put the state lord in a dark prison and not let him out without my permission."

"All rewards should be given as usual, and no dereliction of duty should be done.

Without my order, you are not allowed to visit or interrogate me."
