Chapter 10 Which one is hard to win or lose

The great marriage of the king of Wei, inheriting the filial piety of the previous emperor, everything is simple, but the emperor personally married, and also set up a ceremony in the Xuanzheng Hall, and the ministers are seated. The grand occasion is still extraordinary.

Xia Houchen squinted slightly, stared at the two people who came with her, smiled, and her shy face reappeared. At the time of the wedding, she was far from so calm. If it hadn't been for her toughness, she would have been turned upside down by her.

A set of regular etiquette and polite words from the two countries. After the ceremony, Ran Murui had sent a red sedan to the Wei royal palace, and Xiahou Yu stayed in the Xuanzheng Hall to thank the ministers.

Li Congyun took a sip of wine, which was warm, sweet, and melted into his heart. It was a little cool. There was laughter around him, but he was absent-minded. Since he entered the banquet until Xia Houchen appeared, his eyes were always searching for her, looking for her. I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, or it has become a habit. Yin Pianxuan never appeared in the Xuanzheng Hall, and Xiahou Chen was surrounded by a well-dressed queen.

Her eyes always fall unconsciously on Manyao, with some feelings of the same illness. Even if they are around, their hearts are not there.

Xiahouyu held the glass and smiled. A glass of wine poured into his throat, but he became more and more awake. He caught a glimpse of Shi Yan carefully walking towards Xiahouchen and whispered a few words. Seeing that his face changed slightly, he put the glass in his hand and bowed in front of him: "Brother, is something wrong?"

Xia Houchen recovered his face very quickly: "How can there be something wrong with the fifth brother's marriage? Fifth brother, rest assured!"

He knelt down on one knee: "Brother, as long as you say a word, I would like to--"

"Five brothers!" Xia Houchen raised his hand to stop him and hooked the corners of his mouth: "How does it sound like the fifth brother wants to escape the suspicion of the wedding night?"

Xiahouyu suddenly became dumb, pulled the corners of his mouth with difficulty, and said, "I just want to--"

"Fifth brother, go home early to rest!" Xia Houchen didn't give him a chance to explain at all. He left a few words and strode away.

A calm and hurried footsteps went straight to the innermost cell of the prison. The door of the cell was half closed, with a strange smell. Xia Houchen lowered his head slightly into the cell, still magnificent and brilliant, but the cell was already empty.

He glanced at the chess platform on one side. Black and white were listed on the chessboard. The staggered whites surrounded the blacks very well. He raised his eyebrows and played chess with Xia Hou Mian since childhood. He always chose the blacks and pinched a white: "Uncle Jiu Wang, you are implying to me that you and my chess game, you will be the last one to win. One? Uncle Jiu Wang, you really underestimate me!"

"Laugh often!" Xia Houchen called out and saw him brushing into the cell. He ordered in a low voice, "Let Black Xiaowei closely monitor the movements of Uncle Jiu. I want to know who is involved with Uncle Jiu Wang. Send some people to pay attention to the warm incense hall. I'm afraid that once Uncle Jiu Wang fails, he will hit a fish and die.

Chang smiled and turned out of the cell.

"Go to the water prison!"

Shi Yan opened the road in front of him and turned down the stone ladder next to the Tian prison, leading directly to the water prison.

Xia Houchen slowly stepped into the water cell. A fishy smell came to his nose and frowned. He stood upright in front of the stone steps in front of the prison. He looked around the water prison surrounded by the stone wall and filled the water up to his waist. The long iron chain held his limbs, and his hair spread, which was faintly visible. Because he had been immersed in the water for a long time, his body was swollen.

"You have been living for a long time. If you were an ordinary person, you would have died long ago."

The drooping head slowly raised, and he smiled sarcastically: "Isn't this just in line with the emperor's wishes? Slow tortured and vented the emperor's hatred!"

"Uncle Jiu left the prison tonight at the palace banquet!"

Guan Xiuyun was stunned for a moment and laughed: "He actually left the prison! He actually left the heavenly prison! Haha! Does the emperor want to get something out of my mouth? It's a pity. Even if I know where he will hide, I will never tell you!"

"Uncle Jiu won't bother you! I'm worried that Uncle Jiu has been staggering since then, and I don't dare to do it boldly, which has bothered me a lot."

"Did you design him to escape from the prison? A magnificent nine king is really pitiful. He is designed and laid out everywhere. The emperor is really smart!" Guan Xiuyun shook his head and sneered: "In this case, what does the emperor want to do here?"

"I just want to see how you survive. I want you to regret what you have done day and night, so that you can't survive or die!"

He angrily pulled the chain and stirred the water: "I only regret why I didn't think of a perfect plan to kill you at the beginning, but I'm very satisfied with this. Yin Xiaoting and Xia Housong were destroyed in my hands one by one, and I am satisfied. As long as I have a life, one day I will get out of this prison.

"Before I went to Harbin, Yin Xiaoting promised me one thing. You made him break his promise. You made me miss a lot, and you also broke my heart." Xia Houchen took a deep breath and glanced at him coldly: "When I finish all the deployment, this water prison will be your grave!"

As the footsteps left, Guan Xiu shouted with a hiss, "bang", the thick stone door closed, and he fell into the boundless darkness again.

Xia Houchen looked back at the heavenly prison guarded by heavy soldiers and shook his head slightly. Uncle Jiuwang, do you really think that you can successfully escape from the heavenly prison with your ability? You are too careless. If you have to find out the person behind the scenes who instructed Guan Xiuyun, how will you be able to escape?

"Shi Yan, immediately thoroughly investigate the identity of everyone in the palace, and don't leave any of them behind. If there is anyone whose origin is unknown, it will be killed!"

Aware of a trace of tension in the atmosphere, Yin Pian looked down and just caught a glimpse of Yuzhu and Donglian. Suddenly, a shadow approached in front of her and fell into a warm embrace. A low voice sounded in her ear: "Are you waiting for me?"

Before she could speak, her lips with the smell of wine had attacked, and she stretched out her hand to block it with dissatisfaction.

Xia Houchen smiled faintly and restrained her hands with one hand. He still stole a kiss and raised his lips contentedly: "Can you sleep?"

"The emperor has gone the wrong way. This is Jingren Palace, not Ningyun Pavilion!" Yin Piao stubbornly wanted to break away from his arms, but was locked tighter.

"Tell me that you are not happy when I stay in Ningyun Pavilion these days?"

"The emperor can go wherever he likes, which has nothing to do with me!"

The angry voice was with some grievances, which made him burst into a burst of anger and bit her earlobe: "If I tell you that I go to Ningyun Pavilion, I'm not what you think. Will you believe it? You know, I just want you!"

"I don't believe it, ah--" She was picked up sideways and exclaimed.

"I will make you believe!"

In a moment, she was trapped in the bed and had nowhere to escape. She retreated cautiously and stared at him without blinking: "I won't allow you to touch me!"

"That's not what you said last night!"

She was so angry that she went straight forward and couldn't help knocking down: "I don't want to see you. You go out!"

Xia Houchen was capricious until her fists gradually slowed down and took her into his arms: "If you want to have a good rest, you have to calm down first, otherwise, I can't guarantee anything!"

In a word, she obediently gave up.

He exhaled softly. If it hadn't been for the child in her belly, he would have eaten the woman clean, and there would have been no need to suppress it bitterly, and she really didn't appreciate it.

"Pian'er, I have told Yuzhu and Donglian that you will take them wherever you go in the future, okay?"

"It's not good!" She raised her head and refused coldly: "I don't want them to follow. I don't want them to stay here. I don't like them!"

Xia Houchen frowned and looked at her doubtfully: "But did they make you angry?"

"I don't like anyone who is yours!"

"Don't be capricious!" He lowered his voice, with absolute remissibility, and exhaled a threatening word: "Otherwise, you will have to stay with me all day!"

stared at him fiercely. She rolled down, lay down directly, pulled on the quilt, and said in a muffled voice, "I don't like your palace. I want to leave the palace!"

Xiahouchen took a deep breath and had no choice but to say the reason: "Uncle Jiuwang escaped from the prison. I'm afraid that he will be unfavorable to you. Don't be capricious anymore! I have sent someone to protect the warm incense hall, but can you follow my arrangement?

For a long time, she didn't say anything more. Finally, she said, "Who dares to touch me, I will kill him!"

"I know you will, but no one is worth taking you at risk!"
