Chapter 398: Brotherly Conflict
Hearing Zhao Ling's question, Zhao Xuan immediately realized that he had forgotten for a while, and actually took down the hand covering his face, which revealed his injured appearance in front of the third brother.
But at this time, it was too late for him to cover it up.
Seeing Zhao Heng drooping his head and not saying a word, Zhao Ling hated to go up and kicked this stinky boy to death, he usually looked like he was powerful, why was he beaten today but still obediently came down?
"Zhao Heng, didn't you hear what I asked you? What the hell is going on with your face? Are you fighting with people in the palace? Do you really want to turn the other way around? ”
Looking at the third brother who was already angry, Zhao Heng also had a hard time, and quickly grabbed Zhao Ling's hand, with pleading in his eyes, "Third brother, you misunderstood me, even if I am a bastard, I will not fight in the palace when my father is sick, don't get angry and angry, okay." ”
"And what's going on with your face? I don't believe it, you are a dignified son, who would dare to beat you? ”
Zhao Hengzhen felt that he was really unlucky today, first he was slapped by that slut, and now he was arrested by the third brother, now, if he doesn't explain well, I'm afraid he won't want to leave the palace alive today.
Zhao Heng continued to droop his head, like a big dog who had been bullied but didn't dare to resist, and said, "It was Zhou Yanran's slut who beat him." ”
Zhao Ling's eyes kept moving, and his brain was spinning rapidly, he immediately thought of a situation, and suddenly, he was so angry that he couldn't restrain himself anymore, and grabbed Zhao Heng's collar and slammed this stinky boy to the wall.
His eyes glared at him fiercely, and he lowered his voice and said in Zhao Heng's ear: "Bastard, are you bullying her again?" ”
He should have thought that with Lao Jiu's lustful problem, how could he easily let go of Zhou Yanran, who had been played by him once; I really didn't expect that this bastard is really getting more and more ridiculous now, his father is sick in bed, he doesn't come forward to serve, and he still dares to play with the concubine under his father's nose?
This ridiculous bastard really thinks no one can control him, does he?
Zhao Ling's angry appearance immediately frightened Zhao Heng, he trembled his lips and looked at the third brother with an ugly face, and explained repeatedly, "Third brother and third brother, things are not what you think, I, I didn't bully her, I just, I just ......"
"Just what? If you hadn't thought about touching her, would she have come up to you and slap you for no reason? Zhao Heng, I think you not only don't want to go back to the capital, but you don't even want your life anymore. ”
Zhao Heng looked at the angry third brother, his eyes flashed with bitter struggle, in the face of the third brother's reprimand, he really wanted to say what was in his heart, but he looked down on himself like that; That's why he had such a hard time during this time.
Today, where did he bully Zhou Yanran, strictly speaking, it is clear that he was bullied by Zhou Yanran.
Thinking that he grew up and even his father had to let him when he was playing tricks, he didn't expect that one day, he would be planted in the hands of such a woman.
Zhao Heng trembled uncomfortably, his eyes turned faintly red, looked at Zhao Ling, and said: "Third brother, not everyone lives as bright and upright as you, and not everyone is like you, accompanied by a beloved wife; You have everything now, the world is beautiful, you don't understand my heart at all, you don't know what I'm bearing as a younger brother. You'll only demand my own standards, but I'm telling you, I don't like yours and I don't want it. ”
After speaking, Zhao Heng didn't know where he got the courage from, so he pushed Zhao Ling away.
Then, when looking at Zhao Ling's stunned expression, he wiped away the tears rolling on his face fiercely, twisted his head, and ran in the direction of leaving the palace.
In that way, it was as if he had been greatly wronged.
Zhao Ling looked at Zhao Heng's figure running away in surprise, at this moment, he was in the mood to kill someone.
He could see that this stinky boy was not only disobedient now, but also emboldened; Thinking of Zhou Yanran, then thinking of his father, and then thinking of the relationship between these three people, Zhao Ling felt that his brain began to hurt.
He saw Zhao Heng's injured eyes before he ran away just now, but he didn't understand, what did he have to hurt? Could it be that he has really suffered a great grievance?
No, with Zhao Heng's nonsensical character, if you don't stop him as soon as possible, I'm afraid this stinky boy can toss even more ugly things; Now his father's health is not very good, he can't let Zhao Heng continue to toss like this anymore, and when he makes a scandal and loses the royal face, if he gets angry with his father again, it will be difficult to eliminate the anger in his heart if he slaughters this stinky boy.
As soon as Chu Xingyue entered the palace, he saw Zhao Ling standing motionless in a cold air from a distance, and the other palace attendants waiting beside him were all like frightened birds, and their panicked expressions were overflowing.
What's going on? After going to the early court, wouldn't it be nice to give him up?
Chu Xingyue's footsteps subconsciously accelerated, and when the palace people saw the crown princess coming from afar, they were all like seeing a savior; You must know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness King Heng had a big quarrel just now, and that scene reminded them that they still have palpitations.
And after King Heng ran away, the prince was like this; The star-like eyes were so mixed with frost that they almost froze everyone present; There are even a few more timid ones who have begun to silently drip cold sweat.
Now, everyone knows that the crown prince loves the crown princess the most, so the princess can appear at this time, which is comparable to a life-saving benefactor.
Chu Xingyue naturally didn't notice the gleam of gratitude in everyone's eyes, and after coming to Zhao Ling's side, she first grabbed his slightly clenched fingers, and then hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" Who provoked you? ”
Hearing Chu Xingyue's voice, Zhao Ling came back to his senses.
Looking at her worried eyes, Zhao Ling, who didn't want her to worry about this kind of thing, pulled out a stiff smile on her face, stretched out her hand, touched her soft cheek, and said in a gentle voice: "It's okay, I'm just thinking about something, don't worry." ”
Is it really just thinking about something? However, what was it that could make his face so ugly, and even his always good-looking smile became so reluctant.
Although Chu Xingyue was curious, she also knew that he was unwilling to tell her these things now, and since he didn't say it, then she wouldn't ask much; Just hugged his arm and walked in the direction of Tai'an Palace with him.
Knowing that he was in a bad mood, Chu Xingyue deliberately found some topics to talk to him, "Am I late?" Have you waited a long time? ”
Don't say that she didn't come late, even if she was really late, he was reluctant to say anything about her.
"I didn't have to wait long, you came just in time."
Zhao Ling couldn't help muttering in her heart, fortunately she came at this time, if she was allowed to meet him and Zhao Heng, I am afraid that his vicious appearance would really scare her; Although he also knew that she had seen his irritable side, as a husband, he hoped that she could see his gentle and amorous side.
Chu Xingyue saw that Zhao Ling's eyebrows and eyes finally softened a little, and her tense mood relaxed a lot, pointed to the bottle that was held in Chunxing's arms, and said to Zhao Ling mysteriously: "I didn't come empty-handed, I also brought a gift to my father." ”
Zhao Ling saw Chu Xingyue showing a delicate and lovely appearance, and the frost between his eyebrows and eyes dissipated faster, and said, "What kind of gift has my father not received, what gift can you give him?" ”
"Don't underestimate me Zhao Ling, this gift is indeed not very precious, but it is important to have sincere intentions."
Chu Xingyue shook Zhao Ling's arm coquettishly, jumping up and down beside him, she was like a little girl who hadn't grown up, "I gave my father two bottles of cherry jam that I made myself, my father has been recuperating recently, and everything he eats should be some clear soup and little water, even if the imperial chef's skills are good, if you eat too much soup and water, you will have a bad appetite; This jam is pure natural and pollution-free, without adding any preservatives, it is simply comparable to nature's best gift, haven't you also tasted it, saying that it tastes good; It's really rare to be able to make someone as critical as you say a good word; I thought, since you like everything, my father should like it too. So I brought two bottles, which were regarded as snacks for my father, so that he could taste them when his mouth was light. ”
Listening to the incomprehensible words that popped out of Chu Xingyue's mouth, Zhao Ling subconsciously twisted his eyebrows, this little girl, since she confessed her true identity in front of him, she no longer refused to hide herself, and always said something in front of him that he couldn't understand.
However, this also proves in disguise that she truly believes in him.
Zhao Ling looked at the delicate and lovely beauty in his arms, couldn't help but stretch out his hand, gently scraped her nose, and said in a doting tone: "Do you treat your father and emperor as a child?" It's still a small mouth, like a sick child. ”
"Isn't my father just an old child?"
Looking at Zhao Ling's surprised eyes, Chu Xingyue couldn't help laughing, she thought, the reason why Zhao Ling was so surprised was that she had never heard of a person who dared to say that the son of heaven was an 'old child'.
Chu Xingyue winked at Zhao Ling coquettishly, and continued, "In our place, we like to call the old man in the family an old naughty boy, you say, my father is at this age, he should be worthy of this 'nickname'." ”
Zhao Ling was really amused by this quirky little girl, he knew that she didn't mean anything disrespectful when she said this about her father, but she really regarded her father as her own relative, so she was so intimate and calm in her tone.
It's just that their father is destined not to be an ordinary father, as the so-called companion is like a tiger, many times, even as a biological son, he can't completely let go of himself in front of such a father.
Therefore, Zhao Ling looked at Chu Xingyue's bright and shining eyes, and said, "Yue'er, I know you want to please your father, don't worry, my Yue'er is so smart, my father will definitely really like it; However, in front of my father, there are times when it is better to be cautious. ”
