Chapter 336 From now on I will be your eyes!
At this moment, a shrill cry came from behind the screen, which was particularly loud in this silent imperial study. Everyone turned around and saw Chu Nanyue, covered in blood, walking out from behind the screen holding two children.
Yelongjun looked at the emperor and saw him waving his hand with a tired look on his face. Then he quickly put away his swords. Within a cup of tea, the messy and bloody hall was restored to its original state. If Xiao Hanye had not been standing here with his bruised and battered body, no one would have known that a fight had just taken place here.
Looking at Xiao Hanye, whose whole body was covered with wounds, Chu Nanyue's eyes were filled with tears again.
She wanted to hug him. It had been a long time since she hugged him. A hug was a common occurrence at home, but now she couldn't do it because she didn't know where on his body there were no wounds and she would hurt him.
She wanted to ask him if it hurt, but she couldn't open her mouth. The flesh and blood were tumbling visibly, how could it not hurt?
"Does it still hurt?" She didn't ask, but the man asked her. She didn't hug her, but the man hugged her. Even though he was blind, he could still put his arm around her shoulders accurately. He said in a sad voice, "Thank you for your hard work, Yue... It's my incompetence that made you suffer..."
It was not until this moment that Chu Nanyue raised her eyes to look at his face, and thus saw his empty eye sockets. Her body trembled violently, and her throat tightened: "...your..."
She couldn't say the word "eyes" anyway. She had just been looking at the wounds on his body. She wanted to know how serious his injuries were and whether he would die.
She never expected that his eyes would be gone?
Originally there was a pair of lively eyes... as vivid as they could be, but now they are empty...
Thinking of this, her heart ached. How could this happen?
Perhaps sensing her sad atmosphere, Xiao Hanye's eyes once again shed a line of blood, and he said in a bitter voice: "Ayue... don't be afraid..."
Chu Nanyue suddenly closed her eyes to block out the tears. After a long while, she opened them again. Her eyes were clear now. She said firmly, "It's good to be alive. From now on, I will be your eyes!"
Then, she knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the Prince of Yan is rebellious and a pair of eyes are not enough to calm your anger, so please send him to an extremely cold and miserable place and never let him return to the capital!"
Even a tiger will not eat its own cubs. The old emperor dug out Xiao Hanye's eyes, and she wanted to dig out his eyes as well and kick them like a ball. But now they are at the mercy of others, and if they are not careful they will be beheaded, so she can only retreat in order to advance.
In Beixiao, once a prince was exiled, it meant that he had completely lost the throne. If he entered the capital without permission, he would be considered a traitor and would be killed by anyone.
Besides, Xiao Hanye is already blind... He can no longer threaten anyone...
Hearing this, the old emperor did not speak, but stared at Xiao Hanye closely. He could no longer see the pair of eyes that made him crazy with pain. He was originally happy, but at this moment, an indescribable feeling surged in his heart.
Originally he didn't want to kill him, let alone dig out his eyes. He just wanted to strip him of his military power... How did it develop to such an uncontrollable point?
But he is not the one who feels sad for Qiuyue. He is the emperor of a country and controls the power of life and death of all people in the world. Whoever he wants to kill must obey unconditionally!
Therefore, he did nothing wrong. If anyone should be blamed, it should be this evil boy who brought this upon himself!
He said in a deep voice: "The Prince of Yan has committed treason and offended his superiors, and he should be punished accordingly. However, I am concerned about the relationship between father and son and monarch and subject, so I will banish him from the capital and exile him to Yanzhou. He is not allowed to return to the capital without being summoned. Set off immediately!"
Xiao Hanye was already seriously injured, and due to excessive blood loss, he lost consciousness after hearing the anxious voices of Leng Jiu and Jiang Yan after leaving the imperial study.
Even though Leng Jiu and Jiang Yan were experienced warriors, they could not help but shudder when they saw the countless wounds on their prince's body, especially in some places where the white bones were exposed, and secretly cursed the old emperor for his ruthlessness.
But the next moment made them despair. The commander of the Imperial Guards, Su Hu, said, "Princess Yan, the carriage is ready at the palace gate. Please get in and go to Yanzhou immediately!"
Leng Jiu said bluntly: "My prince is so seriously injured, wouldn't it be a death sentence for him to be displaced at this time? I hope Commander Su will be lenient with him."
Jiang Yan subconsciously touched his chest, but it was empty. He looked at Chu Nanyue awkwardly.
Chu Nanyue was also forcing herself to stay awake at this time. Giving birth to twins just now had cost her a lot of energy. Therefore, not only was her face pale, but even her lips were white. She pursed her lips and said weakly, "Commander Su, the prince is in a very bad condition. If he is not treated in time, he will not survive today. But the emperor's order cannot be disobeyed, and I will not make it difficult for you. Please send my medicine box to the carriage!"
Su Hu would naturally not even agree to this request, so he sent someone to get Chu Nanyue's medicine box, and personally selected some strong and powerful royal guards to escort the King of Yan to Yanzhou.
It is both an escort and an escort!
After saying that, Chu Nanyue also staggered, and Jiang Yan rushed over to her. Then he and Leng Jiu looked at each other, with anger in their eyes, but in a moment, the two of them carried one person and a baby each, and left the palace under the escort of the Imperial Guards.
Xiao Junan, who was far away, narrowed his eyes when he saw this.
Xiao Hanye was blind and exiled. With his injuries, it was even impossible for him to reach Yanzhou alive...
The old emperor is really cruel to the extreme...
At this moment, he realized that a layer of cold sweat was breaking out on his back.
It turned out that the rebellion of Prince Ning and his party that day was not only his plan, but also the plan of the old emperor.
Without the intervention of the Imperial Guards, the old emperor could have severely injured Xiao Hanye, and his methods were so cruel. With Xiao Hanye's skills, who in the world could hurt him? But Xiao Hanye was obviously defeated after a fierce battle...
It turns out that the old emperor always had a backup plan.
When Prince Ning forced the emperor to abdicate that day, the reason why he did not let his backup men take action was because he had the overall situation under control, or in other words, he also wanted to confirm whether his mother was having an affair with someone?
Thinking of this, he felt a sense of frustration he had never felt before. It turned out that everything was within the old emperor's expectations, and the reason why he didn't say it was because he thought he was his and Ouyang Xue's child...
However, he is not...
Thinking of this, he took a deep breath and then walked to the imperial study.
"An'er is here. I heard that Princess Yu gave you a daughter?" The old emperor leaned on the dragon throne with a tired look on his face, as if he had aged a lot in just one day.
Xiao Jun'an nodded, then pursed his lips and said, "Father, the Princess of Yan has just given birth. Why don't we wait until she is out of confinement before letting her and my fourth brother go to Yanzhou together?"
If he were to add insult to injury this time, he would be violating the old emperor's big taboo.
Moreover, he could not discuss the injuries on Xiao Hanye's body because the Imperial Guards did not take action. Presumably, the Emperor did not want others to know about it.
After all, killing each other with his two sons in a short period of time is extremely shameful, not to mention in the royal family, even in ordinary people's families.
Therefore, he could only plead for Xiao Hanye in the name of doing good for Princess Yan.
Sure enough, the old emperor relaxed his brows after hearing his words. "It's rare that you can still plead for that evil son at this time. You know that his words just now were all accusations against me, but even ten fingers are not the same length, so how can people's hearts be treated equally? I just can't stand his arrogant look. He ended up in such a miserable end today because he didn't know how to judge the situation. It's really unreasonable! He deserves it! He deserves it!"
If he hadn't been merciful, given his rebellious and treasonous behavior, how could he have gotten away with just a tiger talisman and a pair of eyes?
Even though Xiao Hanye has nothing now, the old emperor still has a deep grudge against him. Especially whenever he thinks of his watery eyes, he feels uncomfortable.
Those dark pupils soaked in water...
Thinking of this, he felt a sharp pain in his head again, so he slammed the table hard, both to vent his anger and to dispel the mess in his mind.
"Father, please calm down. I believe that when my fourth brother arrives in Yanzhou, a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, he will soon be able to get rid of his anger after being influenced by nature and accompanied by his wife and children. If you miss him, you can call him back." Xiao Jun'an said sincerely.
Look at how well he talks. It's obviously a poor and remote place, but he describes it as a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters. This shows the old emperor's generosity and kindness. So after hearing this, the old emperor's anger naturally dissipated a little, but he snorted coldly: "I will miss that evil son!"
"During this period of time, you should stay in the palace and take good care of the little princess." The old emperor added. The princess of the Western Regions eventually died of dystocia just like his Ouyang. Thinking of this, he sighed, paused, and continued, "By the way, the 100,000 Beijing troops are still under your command."
"Yes, Father, I will not let you down."
Seeing Xiao Jun'an accept the order, he waved his hand and said tiredly: "I am tired, you can go back too."
Xiao Jun'an was stunned for a moment before he bowed respectfully and left.
Originally, it was thought that the old emperor would hand over the 300,000 Beilin troops in Xiao Hanye's hands to him for jurisdiction, but unexpectedly, he only returned the original 100,000 Beijing troops in their original form, and did not mention a word about the Beilin Army. I wonder what the old emperor was thinking?
The old emperor did have an idea. In order to prevent him and Xiao Jun'an from repeating the mistakes of him and Xiao Hanye, he planned to take control of the Beilin Army in his own hands. After all, when he was a hundred years old, he would hand it over to Xiao Jun'an.
It doesn't matter if we take a moment.
Afterwards, he scolded Xiao Hanye, the rebellious son, and then returned to the bedroom with Jiang Shou's support.
