After meeting Ziyan and telling her what happened to her while in prison. Xiaoqi walked out of the ziyan reading room. It turned out that after he was kidnapped, what happened to him was not much different from what was experienced by Ziyan. Fortunately, Xiaoqi did not suffer any torture at all.
Bugg!
Xiaoqi bumped into someone when it arrived at the intersection of the passageway. A female servant accidentally bumped into him. The female butler crashed right into the chest of the xiaoqi field. Makes the waiter grimace while holding his head.
" Addudududuha. "
" Are you okay? " Task xiaoqi without showing any expression.
" Aw. This is very painful. " The groaning is pain. He then looked up to see the face of the man who hit him.
Someone who had wanted to get angry immediately closed his mouth as soon as he saw the handsome face of xiaoqi. He did not even react just staring at the face of xiaoqi.
" Hey. are you okay? " Yet again xiaoqi asked. He even shook his hand right in front of the face of someone who was sculpting.
Xiaoqi flicked his finger many times making one regain his senses. He was so fascinated by the face of xiaoqi. He even forgot the pain he had just felt.
" Ah I'm fine. " Say a wave.
" Ow. Then excuse me. " Xiaoqi walked past just like that.
" Hey you haven't apologized yet. " I exclaimed making xiaoqi's steps come to a halt.
Xiaoqi turned around, caught a glimpse of someone then spoke back. " You hit me. So there's no obligation to apologize. " And he stepped back and left.
" What did he just say? No obligation to apologize? " Something is upset.
Then he went back to talking to himself. " For his handsome face. Although his attitude was cold. Perhaps the influence of following the prince rui, his attitude followed the master. " Murm yourself. Even after getting a cold attitude xiaoqi did not make the smile on the girl's face fade. For the first time in eighteen years of his life he felt a strange feeling.
" Why does my heart keep pounding, my face is also hot. Could I have a chronic illness? looks like I should ask wangfei later. " A monologue holds both cheeks.
***********
The palace court. There is a heated debate between ministers from both camps. Discussion of Arthur's release which was rejected by the noble camp officials. They assume that Arthur was found not guilty of kidnapping and illegal auction. He was identified as a spy for another country. Remembering arthur's different physique.
" Can you guarantee that he is not a spy for another country? it would be better to be on guard than to take risks which we will regret later on. " Say one of the officials of the nobility.
" I agree. We cannot ignore the safety of the people. So before there's any evidence it's better to keep him locked up. " Kimpal was another noble stronghold official.
This time the officials of the imperial camp could not argue. The reasons expressed by their rivals who always invite duets when arguing sound quite reasonable.
While Sima rui, she chose silence. Pouting in the heart the attitude of his father's officials who seemed to care about the fate of the people. He'll think of another way to get Arthur out. If asked why he didn't ask his father to get Arthur out? the answer is already. However as an emperor, Sima shao was also unable to act at will. Many eyes were watching him and judging his decisions.
Sima shao looked at Sima rui. Hoping for his son to catch the signal of his conscience to be conveyed.
' You better think of a way to get your friend out that's my son. Already see not the men smell the ground is biting hard do not want to let go just like that. ' Sima shao said in his heart.
While Sima Rui who realized the gaze of the father. He only caught a glimpse and then returned. He did not even bother to understand his father's heart. Arthur, he will use his own way. If it is in a subtle way it cannot. Then he would use extreme means. He didn't even have to think about the reaction his father's officials would think.
After finishing with the palace court filled with the falsities of the palace officials, Sima Rui came to visit her mother, Huang Guifei.
" Guifei, prince rui came to visit." reported one of the servants.
" Send him in. "
After getting permission. Sima Rui entered and immediately saluted the mother.
" Mom, how are you? " Sanya was already sitting in front of Huang Guifei.
Sima rui's eyebrows frowned when he saw some sour fruit on the mother's table.
" I'm good. It's just that somehow I like sour food these days. " Reveal guifei. He took one sour candy and ate it right away. Sima rui who saw him even felt pained when he saw his mother who was endlessly chewing on the acidic object.
" Amom and Ziyan are the same. " Sima rui's great-grandson all of a sudden.
" What's wrong with my son-in-law." Ask Huang Guifei.
" It's okay. He just loves sweet food. From last night until this morning. He always asked the waiter to make a sweet meal. He usually likes sweet food too. But this time the tendency felt worse. It does not touch any food other than sweet food. " Sima rui obviously.
" What's the problem then? It's not like your wife doesn't want to eat, is it? he just chooses the food he wants to eat. Is that weird? " Contact Huang Guifei. According to him, the behavior of the son-in-law is still fairly normal. So when his son criticized his wife's appetite, he inexplicably became upset.
" You men never understand us women. You only think about politics and bed. Do you not think at all that we women also want to be understood. If you can't understand us, at least don't comment on what we do. Can't just shut up and look. " Gush Huang Guifei without giving Sima rui a chance to defend himself.
" You better come back. Suddenly I don't want to see you. " Huang guifei re-added .
Even though I don't know what's going on. Sima rui chose obediently and left Huang guifei's palace with a myriad of questions on his mind. Certainly not a question about his mother, but is it true that his wife feels himself as a husband who does not understand him?
In the middle of the road while exiting Huang guifei's palace, Sima rui saw his father was walking closer. He knew his father wanted to visit his wife. Suddenly an ignorant thought appeared in Sima rui's mind. He wanted to work a little on his father.
" Sincerely father. Are you going to visit your wife? " Tanya Sima rui's.
' Brash kid. My wife is yes your mother said Sima shao of course only in the heart. Many eunuchs and servants behind him. Where maybe he as the king swore haphazardly.
Sima shao cleared his throat. " Have you just visited your mother? "
" Right dad. It had not been a visit for a long time so this time it came to see the health of the mother. But... " Sima rui's pause made Sima shao pay more attention.
" But what? " Makes Sima shao curious.
" When I visited, I saw that my mother loved to eat sour candy. As a child, I was worried. Because consuming too much sour candy is certainly not good for health. Maybe I can advise mom. " Adu sima rui.
Sima Shao looked serious at the complaints of the son. " You're right. Too much acidic food is also not good for the stomach. All right, I'll advise him. Now back. "
After giving her respect again Sima rui left. He secretly smiled with satisfaction. He could imagine how his mother would be when his father gave advice.
*********
The prince's residence.
Ziyan was already waiting for the arrival of sima rui in the living room along with wang yi. The man has been living there since he was caught. Being a burden and hitchhiking live in Sima rui's residence.
Ziyan glanced at wang yi who had been busy chewing on the quaci.
" Don't make it a habit of you to stop eating that little thing. You're making this residential groceries run out fast. " Related ziyan saw wang yi who had been busy eating the sunflower seeds.
Wang yi advanced a small bowl containing skinless cauci on the ziyan.
" Wangfei, eat a little of this. It is said to be good for your skin health. " Wang yi said without caring about the annoyance of the woman who had the highest throne in the prince's residence.
Ziyan's eyes sparkled. His hand was about to take some. But his hand suddenly came to a halt, then he glanced back at wang yi.
" What are you peeling off her skin with. " Tanya ziyan investigated. Don't let what's on his mind turn out to be true.
Wang yi smiled without any burden. " Of course with this. " Wang yi was singing her lips.
His guess turned out to be true. Ziyan immediately pushed back the bowl containing the quaci and wiped his hands on the table.
" You're waiting for me. " The arrival of sima rui distracted the attention of the two people in the waiting room.
Sima rui immediately sat down next to Ziyan and sipped the tea that his wife had prepared.
" How? " Task ziyan directly. Sima Rui knew what his wife was asking.
Sima rui nodded. " Officials in the nobility's camp refused. They reasoned that Arthur was a spy of another country. "
" Uhuk-" Wang yi chokes.
Ziyan and Sima rui turned to stare at wang yi who was busy patting her chest. Even in panic, he trembled as he poured water into his glass.
" Are you okay? " Tanya ziyan was worried. The pained face of wang yi.
" I'm sorry to worry you guys. I just choked on the kuaci seeds. " Wang yi reasoned.
Ziyan wanted to say again, but said no because he knew he was discussing something more important.
" Please continue. " Ziyan and Sima rui went back to discussing the topic of arthur.
" Is there no other way to free Arthur? " Task ziyan to her husband.
" We can do it secretly. But that would leave Arthur with no place in the country, in other words he would have to go and live in exile forever. That's why I want to use the legal route so that he can stay in this country. It's just that we don't have any guarantees or anything that proves that he's not a spy. " Papar Sima rui explained.
After Sima rui finished with her words. No one came back to talk. They are busy with their own thoughts.
