Morbid pet

Chapter 38
The chirping of cicadas in midsummer sang one after another in the imperial garden, and the breeze carried a little mint leaf aroma, which smelled very good.

Prince Yu suddenly raised his red eyes, and roared angrily, "I only want to protect the people I want to protect! Why is it so difficult!"

Xie Zhao followed him all the way from the platform, but guessed three points.

He asked: "Do you want to avenge Chang Le?"

Prince Yu shed a tear without hesitation, he quickly raised his hand to wipe it away, and then nodded slightly.

Xie Zhao nodded: "Just right, this king also wants to protect Chang Le well."

Prince Yu is aware of the almost morbid feelings of the queen's cousin for Xie Zhao, and he also knows that the queen has contributed a lot to Xie Zhao's rise from a eunuch to his current status. He thought that the two would have secretly tied the knot
This puzzled him.

Prince Yu: "Are you serious?"

Xie Zhao raised his eyebrows and asked back: "The heart of the minister is evident in the world. If the prince inquires carefully, he will know that the relationship between the minister and the empress is already in dire straits."

Prince Yu said coldly, "What do you want to do?"

After three sticks of incense
Prince Yu: "Okay! I am willing to help you."

Xie Zhao turned his back and walked out of the palace, "To each other, when the prince is crowned a great treasure one day, just leave a way for the minister and Changle to survive."

"it is good."

Where Xie Zhao didn't see it, Prince Yu's expression suddenly changed from innocent to cold.

For a long time, Prince Yu was still standing beside the broken willow tree, muttering: "One day I can let you live, but Changle will not give it to you again!"

The next day.

Tai Chi Temple.

Li Tianren hasn't held a court meeting for five years, and he has only been on the throne for a few years. He worked hard for a few months before, but he gave up later.

But he still has the habit of getting up early, he will get up early to meditate and practice, at this time, no one can hinder him from cultivating immortals, except one person.

"Brother Emperor!"

Chang Le ran out of the hand of the eunuch blocking the way, and ran straight to his futon.

With a thin and angry face, she looks very delicate.

Only Changle dared to be so capricious. The emperor's Taiji Hall, if you want to break into it, you don't hesitate at all.

Li Tianren opened his eyes and looked at her, instead of being angry, he smiled, "What's the matter, it's so noisy in the early morning."

Changle: "Brother Huang, you have to help the prince. He came to play with me last night, so I took him to drink some pomegranate wine that you gave me at the palace banquet last time. As a result, the prince seems to have drunk too much. Go to the imperial garden and cut down the willow tree planted by the empress herself."

Li Tianren's thin lips were tightly pursed into a line. After a long time, he stood up and said, "You said, the prince cut down the little willow tree in the queen's imperial garden?"

Chang Le smiled awkwardly, "Yes."

Li Tianren: "Go! Drive to Fengxi Palace."

Li Tianren walked extremely fast this way, and arrived at the gate of Fengxi Palace in less than a stick of incense.

Eunuch: "The emperor is here—the princess is here—"

A group of people walked in, just in time to see Prince Yu who had been kneeling at the gate of the palace all night.

Prince Yu knelt all night with a sleepy expression, his eyes lit up for a moment when he saw Changle, "Father, aunt."

Changle helped him up slowly, while Li Tianren strode into the hall to intercede with the queen.

The knees that had been kneeling all night were already red and swollen, and they didn't feel any special feeling when they knelt until they were numb. When they came together suddenly, the clogged blood vessels and meridians poured into Prince Yu's limbs like a debt of distress.

"Hiss—" He took a sharp breath.

Chang Le supported him with a frown, and asked, "It hurts, doesn't it?"

Prince Yu didn't want Changle to see his fragile side, so he smiled and helped her hand away, "Don't worry, aunt, I can go by myself."

Chang Le didn't take good care of him, so he had to let him walk slowly.

"Boom-"

A loud bang.

Prince Yu's knees softened and he knelt down in front of a tall figure.

Xie Zhao's affectionate and indifferent voice exploded from the top of his head: "His Royal Highness is so generous, I am terrified." He turned sideways and left Prince Yu, and walked to Chang Le.

Chang Le looked suspiciously at Xie Zhao who suddenly appeared, frowning tightly: "His Royal Highness Zhao Wang, I don't know why you came to the Queen's Fengxi Palace so early in the morning?"

Xie Zhao lightly smiled and said, "My lord did astrological astrology at night, and found that I would meet Her Royal Highness this morning, so I came here. Unexpectedly, I really met her."

Chang Le glanced at him in disgust, and quickly helped Prince Yu up, leaving only Xie Zhao with a slim figure.

Xie Zhao watched them leave with a smile on his lips.

He came here today to beg for Prince Yu, but he didn't expect Chang Le to move faster than him. Thinking of this, he smiled and left.

Right now, the empress is so arrogant, it is a good thing to keep Changle in the palace.

With so many forces in the palace, it would be extremely difficult for the queen to attack Changle in the palace, and the risk would be huge.

Xie Zhao sighed silently, and walked towards the imperial prison at a faster pace.

He wants her baby to come back as soon as possible, stay by his side, and don't go anywhere.

In prison.

That day, Xie Zhao's hidden guards captured the three assassins alive. In order to prevent them from begging for death, they took off the poison sacs from their teeth early on. Fearing that they would kill themselves by biting their tongues, they also pulled out their tongues. Barely left three alive.

In the dark and gloomy Dongchang Prison, three people who could hardly be called human beings were being chained to the pillars. They were all pierced with lute bones.

No part of their bodies is intact, but they can't even cry out in pain, because their vocal cords are damaged, and they can only express their pain and anger by making some incomplete syllables.

Xie Zhao walked up to them, and said in a cold voice: "I admire you for being so strong under torture, you would rather die than be imprisoned, but you are so stupid, it is not good to harm anyone, you are going to kill this king Changle."

Xie Zhao brought a copper box to them, which contained personal accessories of their children, parents, and cousins.

The three struggled, and the iron chains began to rattle in awe.

Xie Zhao smiled softly at the third watch behind him, "San watch, bring everyone up."

The third watch took orders, and soon brought over seven or eight people who looked like rural couples from outside the prison, as well as two old people, and a peasant woman was holding a baby in her arms.

Xie Zhao took out a slender knife from his sleeve, and pointed it lightly at the baby in the swaddle. He was plucking the lanugo hair on the child's forehead one by one. Soon, the soft brown hair was pinched in his hands. a handful.

Xie Zhao pinched the baby's hair in the palm of his hand, walked to the pillar, and blew gently, and the hair fell on their bodies.

Just listen to him say: "What's wrong with a child?"

The people on the pillar raised their heads and looked at their relatives, tears and wailing filled every corner of the imperial prison.

These are their living relatives!
How dare Xie Zhao!
Xie Zhao hated these incompetent voices, and the hostility in his brow lingered for a long time, getting stronger and stronger.

"My lord asks again, do you want to draw or not?"

All three of them nodded wildly, without the backbone they had before.

Xie Zhao is a demon, a ghost, and a Shura.

However, his appearance was originally clear and handsome, but in this dark dungeon, it became more and more brilliant red. His pale face was almost transparent, and his bare wrists and knuckles were like people from another world.

Xie Zhao sneered, and threw the copper box on the wet bluestone floor, "In the middle of the night, greet their families well, and after getting the pledge, each of them will give two taels of silver as a package, and let them go."

In the middle of the night: "Yes!"

Xie Zhao walked to the door, then paused and said, "If there is someone who would rather die than commit, give it a good time, and then take all her relatives with you on the road, so that we can be each other's companions on the road to Huangquan."

The last sound was almost gnashing of teeth.

"It's good to die together, not lonely."
