First Lady of the Crown Prince - Chapter 726
Chapter 726 Recognition (one more)
Xiao Heng’s clothes are not very expensive fabrics, but wearing a plain shirt on him, he is still in the breeze and graceful.
The house is very quiet.
I don’t know if he was silly, or the monarch’s reaction made everyone afraid to breathe.
or both.
The prince summoned his courage and called out: “Father, Father Father?”
The monarch did not hear, or even ignored him.
From the door to the bed, a short distance of more than ten steps, the monarch walked for a long time.
He has passed the age when he will be excited about something, and his thousands of emotions are hidden in those weather-beaten eyes.
He came to this child.
The last time the two were so face-to-face, Huang Changsun was only a five-year-old child. He returned to Shengdu with Shangguanyan when he was less than two years old.
Three years old, the Xuanyuan family rebelled.
Four years old, the Xuanyuan family was destroyed.
was five years old, and was imprisoned in the imperial tomb along with the maiden.
Since then, the monarch has only been able to see him from a distance in the National Master Hall almost every two years.
But every time the monarch asked the Master of the National Normal University to paint his portrait, so he recognized the child, no matter how far or near it.
The monarch paused and looked at Xiao Heng steadily: “…Qing’er.”
A trace of surprise flashed across Xiao Heng’s eyes: “Your Majesty?”
Everyone was taken aback.
The monarch stunned: “Do you remember me?”
Xiao Heng: Wait, shouldn’t “I” remember you? “I” come back to Sheng every two years, don’t you guys and grandchildren meet?
This kind of small situation can’t help Xiao Heng naturally.
Xiao Heng glanced at the prince who had not recovered from the shock at the door, and said without changing his face: “That person is called your father, I think, except for your majesty, no one in Yan country can afford this claim. ”
The monarch regained his senses: “It turns out that I only recognized it. No wonder you walked so simply on the carriage last time.”
Xiao Heng paused before realizing what the carriage was and what was last time.
No way.
Is that bald old man you?
This was the night when he was chased by Han Ye. The dead soldier who came to rescue him threw him into a carriage. The carriage was split, and he only recognized Zhang Dequan.
The monarch asked: “Since you have come to Shengdu, why haven’t you shown up? Why don’t you go back to the palace to find me?”
Xiao Heng lowered his eyes and said with a sad look: “Because someone was chasing me, my mother told me to hide and not come out, but I heard the news that my mother was injured, and I really can’t continue hiding.”
The monarch’s face sank.
The prince is a bit out of shape.
First of all, he did not recognize Xiao Heng. At the first glance, he really thought it was Shangguan Qing who was back.
He didn’t wake up like a dream until he heard the chase.
He didn’t send anyone to hunt down Shangguan Qing, he was only dealing with Xiao Liulang from beginning to end.
The boy was originally named Xiao Heng, and his father was Hou Xiaoji, Xuanping of Zhaoguo. At the age of fourteen, he sent someone to assassinate Xiao Heng, but Xiao Heng fleeing in fake death and survived as Xiao Liulang.
The prince would sometimes call him Xiao Liulang habitually.
But it’s not right, isn’t the tearful mole under Xiao Heng’s right eye already removed?
So is this Shangguanqing or Xiao Heng?
He felt that Xiao Heng was more likely. After all, Xiao Heng was in Shengdu, but Shangguan Qing had not heard from him for a long time.
But isn’t Xiao Heng not clear about his life experience?
How could he come and pretend to be Shangguanqing?
The prince’s mind was in a mess, and there was no way to sort out his thoughts on this occasion.
The little princess on the side jumped in.
Guojun introduced: “Xiaoxue, he is Shangguanqing…According to seniority, he must be called auntie.”
Go to Lingbo Academy to go to school a lot, and always get along with small clear spaces of the same age. The little princess almost forgets that he is a junior elder.
She straightened her back, with a serious face, she looked up at Xiao Heng and said, “I am Shangguanxue…”
Yeah!
This person looks good!
I really want to grab my little face and scream!
The little princess actually met Xiao Heng when he went to Lingbo College for class on the first day, but at that time, Xiao Heng was wearing the uniform of Canglan Girls’ College with a veil on his face, which made people unable to see his appearance.
Xiao Heng pretended to be seeing the princess lord for the first time. He squatted down on one knee, looked up with Xiaodouding, smiled slightly and said, “Hello Aunt Xiaoxue.”
Countless pink bubbles appeared on the head of the little princess.
This nephew is so cute!
Not like the nasty ghost of King Mingjun!
From today, she will cover him!
The eyes of the little princess were so bright that they could flash stars, but on the face he tried hard to be conservative and calmly said: “Well, hello my nephew.”
Shangguanqing followed his mother’s surname, somewhat similar to the children of a woman recruiting son-in-law, so he is not the grandson of the monarch, not the grandfather of the monarch, but the grandfather of the emperor.
It’s just that Xiao Heng won’t easily call out this “Grandfather Emperor” right now.
Based on the monarch’s attitude towards himself, Xiao Heng had a preliminary judgment on the emperor’s eldest-grandson’s position in the monarch’s mind-the monarch cared about the eldest-grandson, even more than he thought.
Xiao Heng’s decision is actually very risky. If the monarch does not wait to see Shangguanqing at all, then he will be exposed in vain.
There were two people lying on the two beds in the room. One was Shangguanyan who was in a comatose state just after the operation, and the other was Gu Jiao who was too tired to sleep.
The monarch’s eyes swept across the two of them, and finally fell on Shangguanyan, and asked: “Did the doctor say how your mother is doing?”
Xiao Heng glanced at Gu Jiao, who was asleep, and squeezed his fingers and said, “I heard this doctor named Xiao said that my mother broke two spine. In order to save her mother’s life, her mother was shot in the back. Eight nails.”
Iron nail into the bone!
The monarch’s aura instantly cooled, and his murderous aura instantly filled the room.
People who are not afraid of him like the little princess subconsciously jumped at Xiao Heng’s feet, turned to look at the monarch, and hugged Xiao Heng’s thigh, and made a little nephew’s leg pendant.
Xiao Heng didn’t move, so she let her hang up.
The monarch was very angry about the fact that the prince’s wound was so serious. Whether this was due to the remnants of the father and daughter, or because the prestige of the king of a country was provoked, it is unknown.
Xiao Heng secretly planned what to say next.
“I heard that my mother stumbled and fell from the hillside.”
The monarch looked at him.
“My mother was abolished martial arts before going to the imperial mausoleum.” Everyone knows this. It is not a secret. Xiao Heng has heard about it a long time ago, but the next few sentences depend on Xiao Heng’s performance based on Shangguanyan’s performance in Tianxiang Pavilion. Hu pinched, “But in recent years, my mother will accompany me to practice martial arts in order to exercise my physique. I am not talented, and I have not succeeded in learning. My mother has developed a little skill.”
Speaking directly that Shangguanyan is going to practice martial arts again, it will appear that she is unscrupulous, but if she is frail and sick to teach Shangguanqing, there is nothing to doubt.
The monarch recalled how Shang Guanyan went over the wall from the cold palace. It was indeed a bit like a three-legged cat.
should not be too powerful, otherwise it will not go out of the palace by drilling a dog hole.
Nan Shiniang was also a person who had been abolished martial arts. Xiao Heng knew what the highest level of martial arts could reach again, so he did not preach that Shangguan Yan had many martial arts and high strength.
He went on to say: “Mother is very clever and has a bit of martial arts. I don’t believe she would fall like this by herself.”
“That’s the palace, would anyone dare to attack your mother in the palace?” The prince wanted to say that, but if he said so, he would appear very suspicious.
The prince strode forward, and first personally moved a stool to let the monarch sit down by the bed.
Oh, filial piety is still filial piety.
Let the monarch stand for so long.
“Father.” The prince said with a painful expression while supporting the monarch to sit down. “The child minister also thinks this matter is strange. Since you have already banned three… Shangguan Yan’s feet, the child minister believes that she will not run out without authorization. Zhaoyang Palace, maybe some suspicious person has been found, so he chased it out.”
Good fellow, it was said that Shangguanyan was suspiciously injured, but in fact, it was secretly stressing that Shangguanyan had violated the monarch’s ban on foot.
Who made you run out of Zhaoyang Hall in the middle of the night?
Listen to the monarch obediently, and nothing will be all right?
Isn’t this what I asked for?
The little princess couldn’t understand what they were talking about. She hung on her little nephew’s lap motionlessly, acting as a stunned little Guoguo.
Xiao Heng’s eyes became cold, and with the spirit and temper of a young man, he said: “How did your Royal Highness know that my mother was lured out by others, not kidnapped?”
The prince choked: “This…”
Xiao Heng said coldly: “I heard that soon after my mother returned to the palace, His Royal Highness let the guards underneath hurt my mother.”
The prince retorted: “I didn’t! The guard did it himself! I want to stop it! It’s too late! Your mother pushed me! She pushed me down the steps of the pavilion! Do you know how high the pavilion is?”
Xiao Heng asked back: “So your Highness took a grudge and made people fall my mother down from the high slopes?”
The prince’s eyes trembled, and the volume was suddenly raised: lonely! ”
“Enough, don’t make any noise!” The monarch said sternly.
The little princess blocked her ears with her fingers.
The king said to Zhang Dequan: “Take the little princess out.”
“Yes.” Zhang Dequan walked over and carried the little princess out.
“What is going on, you will know when your mother wakes up. How is your body?” the monarch asked Xiao Heng.
Xiao Heng was about to say that he was okay, when he remembered that Shangguanqing was a sick child when he said that, he changed his youthful vigor, and said with pity: “The same way.”
The monarch said: “Since it’s here, let the national teacher show you back.”
Xiao Heng did not speak.
The monarch frowned and glanced at him: “What’s the matter?”
Xiao Heng lowered his eyes, and said in a low voice, “It can’t be cured anyway. I don’t have to waste medicinal materials on me.”
Monarch looked at the frail and sickly grandson, and at Shang Guanyan, who was seriously injured and unconscious, frowned deeply.
The room fell into a strange silence again.
The prince’s heart gradually sank.
The monarch is getting older. Although he is still moody and tyrannical, there is an inch in his heart that is not so hard.
This can be seen from his attitude towards the little princess.
He had never been so tolerant of the young Shangguan Yan.
Is he more like the little princess?
No, it’s because he is not as cruel as he was when he was young.
Shangguanyan’s injury and Huang Changsun’s illness all hit that inch of flesh and blood in his heart.
Xuanyuan’s family was destroyed at just the right time. If it were to change to the present, Queen Xuanyuan begged, who could guarantee that the monarch would still be able to raise the butcher knife toward Xuanyuanman’s gate and not even let the baby in the swaddle be left?
The prince bowed his hands and said: “Father, leave this to your son to investigate. The son will definitely let the matter of last night come to light and give the third sister a fair deal.”
This time, the monarch did not correct the “third sister” in his mouth.
The prince squeezed his fingertips secretly.
“I have my own opinions on this matter.” The monarch refused.
The prince was not surprised by his father’s decision.
He didn’t really want to take things over, he just made a statement in front of his father.
The monarch looked at Shang Guanyan with a complicated expression, and said to Xiao Heng: “Haosheng takes care of your mother…Your bedroom has not moved.”
The last sentence is undoubtedly taking the emperor’s grandson back to the palace.
Xiao Heng said almost without hesitation: “No, I want to stay in the Palace of the National Teachers to accompany my mother to recuperate.”
The monarch said nothing, stood up and walked out the door.
The prince asked his subordinates to leave the supplements, and turned around and stepped to keep up.
When crossed the threshold, the monarch paused slightly, as if waiting for something.
However, he did not wait in the end.
Xiao Heng did it deliberately. He knew that the monarch was waiting for the emperor’s grandfather. In fact, he was just acting right now, and he could say a hundred sentences, but he didn’t want the monarch to do his wish too soon.
After all, things that are too easy to get are not cherished.
Xiao Heng carefully recalled his performance, and made sure that he had no major mistakes.
The monarch’s affection for Shangguanqing’s grandparents is an unexpected joy. One of the reasons for the monarch’s preference for Shangguanqing is that Shangguanqing’s fate has not long since passed.
The monarch was jealous of all people related to the Xuanyuan family, but a long-lived eldest grandson could not pose the slightest threat to his imperial power.
The prince’s performance today is very mediocre, impulsive and irritable, he explodes at a single point, and can’t hold his breath.
But combined with what the prince did secretly, he speculated that this was just a disguise of the prince.
The purpose of is to make people feel that he can’t hide things in his heart and can’t play with yin.
Xiao Heng touched the mole under his right eye, which was dotted with ink, and said lightly: “Let’s see who is better able to pretend.”
