Chapter 309: Gift marriage (four more)

The voice fell, and the surroundings were quiet for a moment.
Even Sun Zhongyan and others couldn't help but look at Rong Xiu.
This is actually their most curious point.
Under the circumstances at that time, even Wei Yun was blocked, but Rong Xiu broke in smoothly and went all the way to the sixth floor!
You know, even Sun Zhongyan and others, the highest is only to the fifth floor!
The queen stared at Rong Xiu, and many guesses flashed in her heart.
Since Rong Xiu came back, he has been in the simplest form. Apart from recovering his illness, he seems to seldom get involved with other things.
It seems to have no desires and desires, gentle and calm.
But she always felt something was wrong in her heart.
She couldn't tell exactly where the problem was, but she had always had an intuition in her heart: Rong Xiu was definitely not as simple and harmless as it seemed on the surface!
If he was really just a sickly pot of medicine, how did he enter the Nine You Pagoda, and how did he reach the sixth floor! ?
Countless eyes fell on Rong Xiu's body, with a strong sense of scrutiny.
Rong Xiu looked calm and smiled slightly.
It's just that the smile did not spread to the corner of his eyes.
"The reason why this king was able to go to the sixth floor... is because this king's mother and concubine used to go up."
Emperor Jiawen shocked:
"what did you say!?"
Rong Xiu took out something from his arms.
It was a circular jade jade pendant with the size of a palm.
The whole body is emerald green, like leaves sprouting in early spring, transparent and clean.
And on the jade pendant, what patterns are carved.
Chu Liuyue took a look and found that there seemed to be...peach blossom lines on it?
This is obviously a jade pendant carved from a good jadeite, but other than that, there seems to be nothing special.
However, when Emperor Jiawen saw the jade pendant, his expression suddenly changed!
He stepped forward quickly, seeming to want to take a closer look at the jade pendant, but when he reached half of his hand, he suddenly stopped.
Chu Liuyue had never seen that look on Emperor Jiawen's face.
Complex, tangled, missing, regret...
The end of her eyes swept away, and the queen standing behind Emperor Jiawen was pale, as if she had seen something terrible.
With a move of her heart, she has probably guessed the origin of the jade pendant.
"You... where did you get this jade pendant?"
Jiawendi asked tremblingly.
"The sixth floor."
Rong Xiu said lightly.
"When I saw the Jiuyou Pagoda catching fire, my son remembered that this thing was still on the sixth floor, and he was worried, so he went up regardless of obstruction. Although he was injured, fortunately, the thing was taken back intact."
"This was the first gift she personally gave to me back then... Then she left the palace and took it away. I... I have been looking for this thing for many years, but I didn't expect--"
Emperor Jiawen seemed to be blocked by something, and he didn't speak for a while.
Chu Liuyue knew it.
It turned out to be a token of love for Emperor Jiawen and Concubine Wan. No wonder Emperor Jiawen reacted so strongly.
Seeing him like this, he is indeed deeply rooted in Wanfei.
It is rumored that Concubine Wan dominated the harem, but somehow she broke up with Emperor Jiawen and left the palace in anger and entered Tianlu Academy as a teacher.
Until she died, she never returned to the palace.
I also don't know what happened that year, and it actually made Wan Fei take back all the tokens that she sent.
It seemed that nothing was left to Emperor Jiawen.
Now it can be seen that Emperor Jiawen paid so much attention to Rong Xiu, to a large extent because of Concubine Wan.
Rong Xiu still had a gentle smile on his face when he saw Emperor Jiawen's look so moved.
It's just that this smile, in Chu Liuyue's eyes, was clearly alienated.
Obviously, Rong Xiu didn't care about this series of reactions of Emperor Jiawen.
"The mother concubine told her son before she left that she had placed this thing on the sixth floor of the Jiuyou Pagoda. She also told...the emperor should not be told if it is a last resort. Therefore, please forgive me. "
Emperor Jiawen was startled.
"Sure enough, she still hates... it's okay, you are also for her good, and it is okay not to tell me. Since this thing is already in yours, you can keep it in the future."
After speaking, Emperor Jiawen sighed, as if he was much older in an instant.
"I'm tired, I'll go back to the palace first."
After speaking, he turned and left without waiting for other people to say anything.
The queen was stunned on the spot, completely at a loss.
gone! ?
Your Majesty just left! ?
Isn't he asking how Rong Xiu goes to the sixth floor? Rong Xiu just mentioned that jade pendant, he didn't even continue to ask! ?
The queen looked back at Emperor Jiawen who had left, and sensibly told her that she should follow up immediately.
But too much happened today, and she couldn't restrain the impulse in her heart.
So, she still insisted on asking:
"Liwang, this jade pendant is the relic of the concubine Wan. You took the risk to get it. It is a piece of filial piety and deserves praise. But... you haven't made it clear yet, how did you get to the sixth floor?"
There was a sneer from the side.
The queen turned her head and saw that this person was actually Ye Zhiting.
He shook the fan in his hand and said slowly:
"Empress, don't you know that the jade pendant is an original tool?"
The queen was stunned.
"What, what?"
"That thing is on the sixth floor. Rong Xiu has the blood of a concubine, so he can naturally go up smoothly..."
Ye Zhiting was originally full of doubts.
But when I saw the jade pendant, I immediately understood everything.
At this moment, seeing the queen's aggressive appearance, I couldn't help feeling bored, and said lazily:
"It seems that the queen is not aware of this matter? Yes, this is a matter between your majesty and concubine Wan. It is normal for the queen not to know."
The queen's face turned pale with anger, but she did not dare to confront Ye Zhiting in public.
Although she is a queen, even Emperor Jiawen has to give Ye Zhiting three points of face, not to mention herself?
Looking at her with so many eyes around made her even more embarrassed.
It seemed that Rong Xiu and Chu Liuyue couldn't be dealt with today, and they had to find another time.
Thinking of this, the queen reluctantly smiled:
"Thank you Ye Lao for answering your questions. Your Majesty has already left, so I won't stay in this palace much."
After speaking, he hurriedly turned around and chased after Emperor Jiawen.
"Father, please stay."
Rong Xiu suddenly spoke, his voice as cold as a jade attack.
Emperor Jiawen, who had already walked a certain distance, heard the sound and turned his head in confusion:
"how?"
Rong Xiu took a step forward.
"I have something to ask for."
He stood there with a long body.
His body was clearly stained with messy blood, but between the eyebrows, he was calm and honorable, which made people unconsciously in awe.
Emperor Jiawen asked:
"What's the matter?"
Rong Xiu's thin lips raised a perfect curve.
"This time, it is false to enter the Jiuyou Pagoda to save Miss Chu, but it is true that Erchen admires Miss Chu in his heart."
Chu Liuyue's heart jumped.
Afterwards, I saw the man who was always pure and graceful and graceful, stretched his arms, raised his brocade robe, and knelt straight down.
"The sons and ministers have nothing to ask for in this life, but wish to hold the hand of one person, as the mother said."
"I implore the emperor to grant marriage."
