Double Bi

"I don't need it."

The voice was the same as when we first met, it sounded without warning, and Zhao Ye's eyes were attracted unconsciously.

Then he walked to the center of the court hall, bowed his hands to the emperor.

"The minister is early and late, and I hope His Majesty will forgive me."

The emperor had issued an order to exempt Song Xun from the early court, so it was not easy to say anything about punishment.

Zhao Xuan wished to stir up the water even more, so he took advantage of the situation and asked, "I don't know where Mr. Song's word 'no need' comes from? Can you explain in detail?"

Unexpectedly, Song Xun knelt down with a "plop--".

"Your Majesty, I am guilty."

Emperor: "What did Song Xun do? What crime did he commit?"

"It's a serious crime for a subject to be blinded by profit, and to be bound by power, to seduce/lead/bewitch/confuse His Highness the King of Chu."

The very few Chu Wangdang who knew the inside story couldn't help but lament Song Xun's ability to adapt to changes.

"I know that I shouldn't, I shouldn't have touched my private thoughts, and I dragged His Highness King Chu into the water in a moment of confusion. This morning, I suddenly remembered the teacher's teachings, and I suddenly woke up, and I felt ashamed in my heart. Please His Majesty punishes!"

Zhao Ye never took his eyes off Song Xun, murmuring the word "Ah Xun" silently.

"Please punish me, Your Majesty!" Seeing that the emperor hadn't spoken, Song Xun shouted again.He is determined to take all the faults on himself.

The emperor remembered what happened last night again.

Last night Song Xun secretly entered the palace, the emperor asked him a question:

"What is the King of Chu to you?"

"It's the only thing, and it's everything."

When the young man said these words, his eyes were shining under the candlelight, but the tears never fell down.

The emperor cleared his throat, and said: "Song Xun, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, has a bad intention. Today, he will be resigned to the position of Shaoqing of Dali Temple, demoted to a commoner, punished with twenty sticks, and punished for copying thousands of volumes of scriptures."

Twenty court sticks!How could Song Xun stand it?At that moment, Zhao Ye just wanted to rush out and hold Song Xun in his arms.

Reason finally restrained the impulse, but Zhao Ye's heart was hurting.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Song Xun's expression was the same as usual, and his tone was calm, making people feel that he was the bystander.

"The king of Chu, Zhao Ye, is not good at observing people, and his resolve is not firm. He has been confined for two months."

Quarantine for two months?This sounded like punishment, but it actually showed Zhao Ye's status in the emperor's heart. Zhao Xuan was very unconvinced in his heart.

Two guards came up and escorted Song Xun to await his execution.

Song Xun glanced at Zhao Ye, and the eyes of the two just met.

This was the first time the two of them looked at each other since Song Xun entered the hall.

Different from Zhao Ye's anger, worry and guilt, Song Xun's eyes were filled with relief...

Song Xun knew that he had the capital to confront the emperor, and that's why he had the meeting last night, so he was able to save Zhao Ye and himself.

It was Zhao Xuan who was imprisoned.

Song Xun walked over calmly and lay down on the long bench.

Zhao Xuan said to the father-in-law who was in charge of the sentence: "Your father-in-law is just, you must not be merciful."

"That's natural. Don't worry, Your Highness King Qi, our family will enforce the law impartially."

Having said that, Zhao Xuan could clearly see the feet under the hem of the father-in-law's clothes, which were Wai Ba.

It only takes a moment to go from the attention of everyone to the criticism of thousands of people.

One moment, Song Xun was still the idol and benchmark of scholars in the world; the next moment, he became the target of public criticism.

"Is it worth it?" Jing Zhan's voice sounded a little lazy.

"Why is it not worth it?" Song Xun kept rubbing a sunspot in his hand, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

"I have been planning for too long to play this game of chess."

Jing Zhan laughed a few times, "Then I should look forward to Brother Song's next move!"

Song Xun smiled, but said nothing.

Turks are not peaceful.

This existence that has caused headaches for the Central Plains dynasties of all dynasties is slowly declining due to increasingly serious internal conflicts.

The old Khan was seriously ill, and the current Turkic power is essentially the Turkic prince.The Turkic prince had great ambitions, so there was a war between Turkic and Daxuan.Although he lost, the Turkic prince's ambition to rule the Central Plains only increased.

A group of people headed by the Turkic State Teacher tried their best to oppose the Turkic prince, but they were suppressed instead.I don't know what the Turkic prince heard. It was said that the Turkic national teacher wanted to support his younger brother, but he cut off the meridians of his brother, making him a useless person forever, in order to demonstrate to the national teacher and others.

"Now that the crown prince is going against the grain, I am afraid that I, the great Turk, will not be able to show my glory again." The Turkic national teacher sighed.

Chanal looked at her father's gray hair from overwork, and it took a long time before she said, "Abba, what should we do now?"

The Turkic national teacher just sighed.

"Why don't you ask the Khan to change the crown prince?"

Now that the entire Turkic palace is full of Turkic princes inside and out, how can they meet Khan?Only then did Bichanal realize that he had just said nonsense.

"I will die in the end, and then you remember to seek refuge with your Azu."

Chanel choked up a little.

"I have a friend who might be able to help."

……

Because he had to avoid the eyes and ears of the Turkic prince along the way, he had to hurry up and wait until Chanar arrived in Daxuan Capital, which was already in the early spring of February.

Spring is cold.

The temperature has not warmed up much, but there are indeed more people on the street.This bustling city is recovering, waking up from its slumber.

I don't know who shouted "His Royal Highness Chu is coming!" Women from all households ran upstairs one after another, waiting for His Highness Chu to drop their handkerchiefs when he passed the street directly below.

Although Zhao Ye was banned for two months, it did not prevent him from traveling freely.

Now he rides a horse and strolls slowly through every street in Kyoto every day.When he came across a handkerchief dropped by the woman, he picked it up and took it back upstairs.

According to Daxuan folk custom, picking up a handkerchief thrown by a woman and sending it back is a sign of love and concubine.

In the past, Zhao Ye kept a straight face all day long, as if someone owed him money, even the girl who fell in love with him would not dare to approach him.But recently, Zhao Ye seems to have changed his temper and smiles at the girls.

I don't know who was the first to throw a handkerchief to Zhao Ye, Zhao Ye picked it up and sent it back, and it was out of control.

In fact, Zhao Ye just thought that Song Xun would be jealous if he walked all the streets, so he came back to look for him?

Chanal had never seen such a spectacle—handkerchiefs everywhere.

Just as Zhao Ye picked up a handkerchief and was about to return it, he caught a glimpse of a corner of the alley not far away from the corner of his eye.

Xu saw that Zhao Ye had noticed it, and the only part of the white robe that was exposed was also hidden in the alley.

Zhao Ye dropped the handkerchief and ran over.

The box is empty, there is nothing...

Zhao Ye looked at the end of the alley and stayed there.

Zhao Ye fainted at the time, and then was drugged, so he naturally ignored Chanal who had never seen him before, but it didn't mean that Chanal didn't know him.

Chanel walked slowly behind Zhao Ye, reached out and patted Zhao Ye's shoulder.

Zhao Ye reacted very quickly, turned around and pinched Chanal's outstretched hand with his left hand, and was about to slap it down with his right hand.

But at this moment, the voice that he was so familiar with appeared:

"stop!"

Zhao Ye turned around.

Chanal moved her wrist, which was pinched so painfully by Zhao Ye, and shouted at Song Xun in inaccurate Chinese: "Song Xun, it's me!"

Before Chanel and Song Xun had a good exchange of greetings, Zhao Ye took the lead in hugging Song Xun.

"Where did you go?"

Song Xun took a deep breath and whispered in Zhao Ye's ear, "Zhao Ye, I'm sorry..."

……

The weight of Zhao Ye made Song Xun take several steps back.

"Chanel, help me."

Chanal heard the sound and immediately came to support Zhao Ye.

"You, knocked him out?"

Song Xun nodded and smiled at Chanal, "Thank you."
