Chapter forty-six wind and clouds

When Emperor Jianwen reduced his vassals in his early years, Zhu Di pretended to be crazy and stupid because of his lack of strength to alleviate Emperor Jianwen's suspicion of him.

He once lived in a pigpen, and it is said that he had eaten rice fields in front of the Jinyiwei who was monitoring him.

Zhu Di used this way of completely destroying his image to give Emperor Jianwen the opportunity to develop. He built weapons and armor under the ground of his Yan Prince's Mansion, and finally had the Jingnan Campaign in the future.

This experience made Zhu Di's heart hard, and there was nothing in this world that he dared not do.

At this moment, Zhu Di was really reluctant to leave when he looked at Wang Xiao.

He did have the intention of completely exterminated hidden dangers when he met Jianwen. As for Wang Xiao, who was a hostage, it didn't matter how outstanding his grandson was in Zhu Di's heart, because he had grandsons.

When Wang Xiao said this, Zhu Di's mentality finally changed.

He is reluctant to let go of such an excellent heir.

"Hahahaha~" Zhu Di laughed loudly, attracting the attention of the audience.

King Zhu Gaoxu of Han looked at Zhu Di with a fire, and Zhu Gaosui on the side fanned the flames and ignited the fire, "I don't know what kind of ecstasy soup this little wolf cub gave the old man, and he made the old man so happy."

Zhu Gaoxu picked up the silver bowl in front of him and drank it all. He had already made up his mind to do great things when he went to the north of the country next year!

"You boy, are you trying to show off your knowledge in front of other girls?"

Wang Xiao smiled and bowed, "The grandson's little thoughts are naturally not hidden from his grandfather. I hope his grandfather will give his grandson some face in front of Ruowei."

Zhu Di was very happy, "What you said before is in line with my wishes, grandpa is very happy. This girl's affairs will be up to your heart."

"I am determined to go out to the north again." Zhu Di looked at Wang Xiao, "What do you think?"

After meeting several envoys from the northern tribes of the Seychelles, Zhu Di realized that these envoys had the intention to unite and decided to take action first.

"No one wants to fight all day long, it's great to eat, drink, sing, dance." Wang Xiao spoke on his own, without caring about Zhu Di's face gradually became cold. "But if we want to sing and dance, there is nothing we can do if we don't let us do it."

"Why is there no way?"

Wang Xiao picked up a tribute pear on the table and handed it to Sun Ruowei, and stuffed a knife to peel it for her. "Whoever lets us sing and dance, then let them die. War is not a good thing, but if war can achieve a hundred years of singing and dancing, then we have to fight to the end!"

Zhu Di reached out and picked up the pear block and put it in his mouth, "You monkey boy, you are completely different from the prince. He is determined to comfort and be harmonious. But you fight as soon as you want, and you don't know how to be afraid at all."

"I know I'm afraid." Wang Xiao nodded. "It's nothing wrong to comfort and harmony, but the premise is to conquer the group of wolves on the grassland first. Otherwise, they will keep rushing over and biting until the Ming Dynasty sheds the last drop of blood."

Zhu Di nodded with satisfaction, "You can understand these things, it's great, it's really good. If I can hand them over to you in the future of the Ming Dynasty, I will feel relieved."

"Be careful, Your Majesty!"

Sun Ruowei, who was beside him, suddenly shouted and rushed over, spreading his arms to block Zhu Di.

In the dark corner far ahead of Zhu Di, an assassin was shooting crossbow arrows at Zhu Di with his hand crossbow.

Compared with bows and arrows, crossbow arrows that use mechanical power have stronger power and have a longer range. In addition to the trouble of loading, they all explode in all aspects.

The assassin uses a hand crossbow because it is convenient to bring it to the garden party. Compared with the real military crossbow, its power is indeed much weakened.

But even so, if you are shot in the vital area, it will only take a minute to lose your life.

Before, when Wang Xiao and Zhu Di were talking, the bored Sun Ruowei was watching around. This might be destined, and she really saw the assassin raising his crossbow in front of the emperor's shadow.

Without any fierce ideological struggle, Sun Ruowei, who simply thought that Zhu Di was a good emperor, subconsciously rushed over and blocked him.

At this time, she had only one thought in her mind, that is, she could finally meet her parents and sister after she died this time.

Then, Sun Ruowei felt a darkness in front of her, and a broad back stood in front of her.

Wang Xiao was hit by a crossbow arrow in his chest, and was hit back by a huge force. Then the two of them fell to Zhu Di.

Although it was just a hand crossbow and Wang Xiao was wearing inner armor, the powerful impact made Wang Xiao breathless. There was pain in his chest, and it felt like a bone crack.

Wang Xiao held his breath and raised his hand and overturned the table in front of Zhu Di and blocked them, and then used all his last strength to roar.

"Protect the car!!"

All this happened in a very short time, and no one around even noticed anything was wrong.

When Wang Xiao overturned the table and roared to protect the enemy, a large number of Jinyiwei and imperial guards flocked to him.

The scene was in chaos, and all kinds of screams and screams were heard.

Seeing that the assassin might escape because of this, Zhu Di, who watched his grandson who was most valued, fell to the ground by an arrow, was furious, "Everyone lay down! Those who acted without mercy!"

The surroundings were full of Jinyiwei and the imperial guards acting as shields. Sun Ruowei, who was sitting on the ground, hugged Wang Xiao tightly with tears in his eyes, "Why are you so stupid?"

Wang Xiao leaned in Sun Ruowei's arms, his eyes were filled with affection, and a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. The acting skills of the top male protagonist of the romance drama ending at the tragic end were fully revealed.

"Because it's you."

"You little monkey, why don't you get up quickly!" Zhu Di's voice came from beside him, interrupting the affection of separation. "Don't tell me, your inner armor cannot block the crossbow. I really can't stop it, all the people in the inner prison will die!"

Zhu Di's words made Sun Ruowei come to his senses. Yes, this bastard was wearing an inner armor before coming!

Sun Ruowei's tears were stopped immediately and she stared at Wang Xiao with gritted teeth.

Wang Xiao stood up from Sun Ruowei's arms, took off the three-inch short crossbow hanging on his clothes and looked at it, "Make the steel, I really can't afford to build it."

Put it under your nose and smell it, "It's still poisonous."

Zhu Di took the short crossbow and looked at Sun Ruowei directly, "What are you thinking? Why did you run out to block the crossbow arrow for me?"

Sun Ruowei lowered his head and responded, "Your Majesty is a good emperor."

Zhu Di, who was originally frost-like, finally smiled and pointed at Wang Xiao, "Be kind to him in the future, he is someone who is willing to sacrifice your life for you."

The assassin was quickly caught, or found, because the assassin swallowed the poison early.

Although the assassin died, things would not subside. It can even be said that this was just the beginning of a large-scale storm.

Wang Xiao brought Zhu Di's reward and returned to the East Palace with the help of Sun Ruowei. The tide outside gradually rose.

"Get up and have a meal."

"The chest hurts and I can't get up. Someone needs to feed it."

Sun Ruowei lived in the palace like this, and his job was to take care of the injured Wang Xiao all day long.

"You are really, you have already recovered, why do you still pretend to be sick?" Sun Ruowei sat by the bed holding a bowl of rice porridge, unable to understand why Wang Xiao pretended to be injured.

Wang Xiao, who was leaning against the head of the bed, put down Song Shi in his hand, raised his chin and signaled Sun Ruowei to come and feed the porridge. "I'm not pretending to be injured, it's the old man who needs me to be injured now."

Sun Ruowei's eyes flashed and she said she couldn't understand.

Wang Xiao ate a bite of rice porridge and casually explained to her, "Who do you think did the assassin do this? Not only can he bring people in with such great energy, but he can also bring crossbow arrows in. This is the palace, not the back garden of someone's house. How many people can do this? In my opinion, this is either the prince or the king of Han."

Sun Ruowei stared at him with his eyes, "You said the prince? How is that possible?"

"Yes, how is that possible? It's a pity that you and I can think like this, but the emperor cannot. As an emperor, you have to doubt anyone who may have the motivation to do such things. Unfortunately, if the assassination is successful, the person who benefits the most is the prince."

Wang Xiao's words made Sun Ruowei unacceptable, and the emperor's family was too chaotic.

"Actually, this is not done by the prince." Wang Xiao laughed. "It is because the prince benefits the most that he did not do it. Because everyone will think so. The old man knows this, so I have to be injured and recuperate. Then the prince stays in the prince's mansion and honestly thinks about his mistakes. As for the one who is the most suspicious, he is probably about to be reincarnated."

Sun Ruowei looked at Wang Xiao with a ridiculous look on his face, "What are you talking about? Why can't I understand? You said that the emperor also knew that the King of Han was the most suspicious, and then the emperor locked up the prince and asked the King of Han to supervise the country? What a mess."

Wang Xiao took the rice porridge and drank it in big mouthfuls, "You are still young, and it's normal that you can't figure it out now. Have you heard of the tactic of hard-to-get? The old man is preparing to meet Jianwen. If the King of Han knows about such an important thing, he will definitely interfere in trouble. So now these things, including the King of Han, are to confuse him and make him unable to distract himself from making trouble."

Sun Ruowei nodded suddenly, "I understand as soon as you say this. But why did you want to imprison the prince and arrest all the officials of the Eastern Palace? I heard from the princess before that even the chief minister, Mr. Yang, was imprisoned in the imperial prison."

Wang Xiao, who drank all the rice porridge in just a few seconds, burped and handed the bowl of porridge to Sun Ruowei. "Do you want to know? If you really want to know, I will tell you a kiss."

Sun Ruo blushed slightly and was about to get up, but Wang Xiao grabbed him, "Since you are so shy, then I'll kiss you."

After a while, Sun Ruowei, who was blushing, struggled to get up and hammered Wang Xiao a few times.

"Murder your husband, you are not the queen yet. If you kill me now, I can't do Wu Zetian."

Sun Ruowei stopped for a moment, and the blush on his face quickly faded into pale.

Wang Xiao leaned over and held her in his arms, "Just just joking, you took it seriously. Besides, even if you really do Wu Zetian, I don't care. Anyway, I'll have died at that time."

Sun Ruowei turned his head and curled his lips and refused to look at him. Although he was a little better, he still did not forgive Wang Xiao.

"Okay, I'll tell you what I'll understand. The Han King has great power. He is the biggest during the time when the emperor went out. He can't move the prince, but the people around the prince can use various methods to suppress or even kill them, thereby attacking the prince's power. Yang Shiqi is an official from the Eastern Palace and is a hard-core prince. The old man locked them up, as if he was punishing the prince, but in fact he was protecting them."

Now Sun Ruowei has completely understood that there are so many strange things in this world during this period, and all the root causes lies in this.

After a moment of silence, Sun Ruowei said leisurely.
