Contract Prince

Chapter 20 The Truth "Cultivation"

Xiao Muxue's words made Xiao Zhan very surprised. Xiao Cong has always regarded him as a thorn in his side, secretly thinking of ways to bring him down, so who is it that he set up this witchcraft case?

Although Xiao Zhan is tolerant and kind, it does not mean that he can tolerate being framed for no reason.He has his own principles and bottom line in dealing with people, and once others touch him, he will not be soft.

He looked coldly, and snorted, "Who would be so deliberate about harming me except Xiao Cong? Although Xiao Yang also wants to be the crown prince, he won't be in a hurry to overthrow me right now. If I fall, he will become Xiao The thorn in the flesh. Xiao Yang would not be so stupid to pick up a stone and throw it on his own foot."

Xiao Muxue knew that it might be difficult for Xiao Zhan to accept the truth that the murderer behind the scenes was the emperor, but she still wanted to say it.Because she hoped that after Xiao Zhan knew the truth, he could learn more lessons in his future Gongdou career.Especially when facing the suspicious emperor, he can be more careful.

"The person who framed you is Father." Xiao Muxue said every word, her voice was not loud, but to Xiao Zhan's ears, it sounded like thunder from nine heavens.

Xiao Zhan seemed to be struck by lightning, his eyes were dazed and he stood straight on the spot. After a long period of sluggishness, he came back to his senses and said in disbelief: "Sister Xueer, what are you talking about? The person who framed me is Father?"

Pain appeared on Xiao Zhan's face, Xiao Muxue couldn't bear it, she nodded and turned away.

Gu Yunjing also knew that it would be better for Xiao Zhan to recover by himself at this time. He didn't say anything, but just watched quietly.

On the chessboard on the table, fiddle with the chess pieces.

"The person who framed me turned out to be my father!!!" Xiao Zhan repeated several times in a row, his voice was hopeless and desolate, his passionate heart seemed to be suddenly frozen by frost and snow, and the temperature disappeared instantly, and the coldness penetrated into the bone marrow Sweeping the whole body.

Xiao Zhan knew that Xiao Guan was afraid of him, but he never thought that his father would frame his own son for the sake of power.

Thoughts were evoked and fell on a long time point.Time has passed for a long time, and some memories seem to be deeply burned in my heart, unforgettable.Perhaps only in memory can one feel the warmth of family affection.

At the age of ten, he was established as the crown prince by Xiao Guan. At that time, the emperor loved this son-in-law very much, and he would always take him with him no matter when he was out on a tour or hunting.Xiao Guan personally taught him horseback riding and archery, and taught him the principles of governing the country and the world.

As he grew older, the relationship between father and son was not as cordial as before.No matter how much Xiao Guan suspected him and suppressed him, he never complained about Xiao Guan.Although the father and son have different political views, in his mind, Xiao Guan will always be the wise and courageous monarch, and will always be his most respected and beloved father.

Who would have thought that his most beloved father would treat him with such despicable means?Xiao Zhan was so desperate that he shook his head several times and smiled wryly.The miserable and hopeless laughter made people feel sore when they heard it.

Gu Yunjing stopped rubbing the chess pieces, looked sideways at Xiao Zhan, sighed a few times, and comforted: "Your Majesty

It has always been like this, so why should His Highness care too much?Although His Majesty designed to frame you, it can be seen that he does not want to put you to death, what he wants is to abolish your crown prince.Otherwise, even if the princess persuades you, he will not be lenient to you. "

Xiao Zhan stared blankly at the moonlight in the sky, remembering how Xiao Guan treated him in the cold all these years, and remembering the open and secret struggles between brothers, with deep helplessness in his eyes, he said slowly: "Father and son are separated, and brothers kill each other, all because of right."

Gu Yunjing said: "People who were born in the emperor's family are destined to be companions of intrigues and intrigues. It has been the same since ancient times. Your Highness does not need to sigh. What you need to do now is to keep your duty and never get involved in the struggle between party and cronies." go."

Speaking of this, she chuckled lightly: "Your Highness has worked so hard for so many years, and now it's a beautiful thing to be a nominal prince and enjoy leisure and happiness. Stay away from court struggles, and your mind will be clearer, your sleep will be a little sweeter, and your meals will be fine." Eat more bowls."

"Perhaps." Xiao Zhan's mood was inexplicably brightened by Gu Yunjing, and he forced a smile.Although the smile was a bit far-fetched, it was much better than the gloomy and hopeless look just now.

Seeing that Xiao Zhan's mood improved, Xiao Muxue felt relieved a lot.

At this time, the tea has been brewed, and the fragrance of the tea overflows the whole elegant house, making people feel happy when they smell it.Gu Yunjing held a cup of tea and said while drinking: "One tea can also relieve thousands of worries. After drinking this tea, I hope that all unhappy emotions will disappear."

The cup exuded misty water vapor, she sniffed it with the tip of her nose, and said intoxicatedly: "Well, it smells so good, this is the first tip of Biluochun. Your Highness and Princess, hurry up and taste it."

In Yasheli, the wind blows the curtains, and the shadows of the cups intertwine.As the night was getting darker, the three of them had finished drinking tea, Xiao Zhan thought that the queen was still thinking about him, so he chatted for a while, and then he hurriedly left and returned to the palace.

Inside the house, Caiyue and Gu Zhong got to know each other and said goodbye, leaving only the princess and son-in-law.

Xiao Muxue said softly, with a very pious tone: "I hope Brother Sanhuang will be safe and sound in the future."

Gu Yunjing said softly: "Yes, Your Highness should be vigilant after suffering this loss. Speaking of which, the witchcraft case this time is not entirely a bad thing, it just frustrates his sharpness and cultivates his maturity. Introverted thoughts. In this way, in the future, he can better govern the country and the country, and be a wise king who benefits the world."

"It's late at night, the princess should go back to the room early to rest." Gu Yunjing looked at Xiao Muxue's beautiful face, and was a little reluctant to look away.

"Well, you too." Xiao Muxue nodded, and she was about to leave Bamboo Forest Yashe after she finished speaking.When he walked to the door, he suddenly thought of something again, turned his head to look at Gu Yunjing, and said, "I will ask my son-in-law to teach you, Brother San Huang."

Gu Yunjing said without hesitation: "Princess, don't worry, I will do my best."

"It's windy, it's hard to walk at night, let's go back earlier."

Xiao Muxue nodded, and slowly walked out of the house.The vast night set off Xiao Muxue's moon-white robe particularly clearly.Gu Yunjing walked out of the house, fixedly watching Xiao Muxue's leaving back, and only looked away when the white shadow turned into a dot that became more and more blurred, and finally disappeared into the night.

Returning to the elegant house, he picked up a volume of poetry from the bookshelf, sat on the couch, and read aloud gently by candlelight.

"The reeds are green, the white dew is frost, and the Iraqi people are on the water side."

"I don't regret it when the belt gradually widens, and it makes people haggard for Yixiao."

"It's useless to be straight and lovesick, but it's okay to be melancholy."

……

The night is slightly cool, there is wind and tea, there are poems and books and the gentle and delicate voice of the young man.
