"Oh, ha, I was shocked. I thought you said he was my biological son." Nangong Jie said cheerfully.

After having dinner at Zizhuyuan, Nangong Jie wanted to stay there for a while, but Duoduo issued an eviction order without any courtesy: "Idiot, go back quickly. All the concubines in the palace are talkative women.

Although the emperor and I are not really married, we still have to save face for him, understand?"

"I know, godson, come here and let your godfather see how much weight you have gained."

"You know, why don't you leave?" Duoduo knew that Nangong Jie was reluctant to leave her and Bin'er, but there was no way. The emperor was now in a dangerous stage, and he would issue a killing order at any time because of a bad mood. Whoever provoked him would lose his head.

.

Seeing Duoduo's tough attitude, Nangong Jie had no choice but to stand up and say: "There are so many guards outside, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to see you, but what should I do if I have something to do with you in the future?"

"Didn't I tell you that there is an old tree in the Purple Bamboo Forest? Just go and tell it."

"This...that..."

"Stop talking about this and that. It's really annoying. Let's go!"

Jin Lian made a face at Nangong Jie again and said, "Hurry up and leave, Your Majesty. If you don't leave, I will be really angry."

"Alas..." Nangong Jie had no choice but to leave Zizhuyuan.

After walking out of the door of Zizhuyuan, Nangong Jie was curious for a moment, so he ran towards the small bamboo forest, searched carefully, and sure enough, he found an old tree inside!

The branches were lush and leafy, like a big umbrella, covering more than ten feet of the ground from light.

Nangong Jie felt that the woman was playing tricks on him and talking to a tree. Only a madman would do that.

In a state of dissatisfaction, Nangong Jie said casually: "Old Shu, Old Shu, you think I'm pitiful or not? I can only speak to you if I have something in my heart. Alas, that woman is so crazy. You let me talk to you. What a stupid ass."

One, you are not a sacred tree, how can you understand human language? Forget it, you can’t understand even if I tell you, I’m leaving, take care of yourself.”

After Nangong Jie said that, he turned around and left.

"Idiot, who do you think is crazy!"

Nangong Jie suddenly turned around: "Who?"

"It's you I'm talking about. Hmm, you're so brave. You dare to say bad things about me behind my back. Believe it or not, I'll ignore you in the future?"

The voice was quiet, but it was heard very clearly, as if the woman was speaking nearby!

Nangong Jie was quite surprised and walked towards the old tree again. The sound just now seemed to come from here. Could this tree really be able to talk? Wasn't this a ghost encounter during the day?

After careful observation, Nangong Jie finally discovered a strange place, that is, there was a recessed hole in the branch of the old tree. The entrance of the hole was blocked by something. The thing seemed to be an iron cup with the rim turned outward.

The cup looks very strange.

"Ding ding" Nangong Jie stretched out his fingers and tapped it twice.

"What are you knocking on, damn you, you're not too stupid after all!"

"Hey, is it really you who is talking? Wife?"

"Who am I? Can't you even recognize my voice? What a fool. Let me tell you, this is a phone. I connected it to my room with a wire. What will happen to you in the future?

Just tell Lao Shu here, do you understand? Remember to knock the iron cup a few times before speaking. If I don't respond, don't say anything. It will be bad if the emperor is here."

"Oh... wife..." Nangong Jie felt very awkward and called his wife to an old tree... "If you have something to say, say it quickly. If you fart, hurry up. Let's go as soon as you're done. It's almost dark."

"Then I'm leaving!"

After Nangong Jie finished speaking, he turned around and left because he suddenly felt very depressed. He was not allowed to see the living person and asked him to talk to a tree. If others found him, they would think he was crazy.

But not too far away, Nangong Jie ran back again, curiously touched the iron cup that could "transmit sound from thousands of miles", and couldn't help but praise: "What an iron mouth."

"Hey, idiot, why haven't you left yet?"

"Ah? Oh, okay, let's go right away."

"Wait, come back!"

Nangong Jie stopped, walked back and said, "What's wrong, wife?"

"Nothing, I just want to remind you, don't think that you can do whatever you want without me. I'm warning you, you can't be emotional with other girls, and you can't peek at the pretty girl in the cloth shop.

Dong Ha, if I find you flirting with women everywhere... hum!"

"Ah?" Nangong Jie suddenly subconsciously covered his crotch with his hand. After realizing that he was very nervous, he let go of his hand. He thought that the woman was too powerful. She could actually kill him even though she was so far away.

Scared.

In Yanming Palace, Concubine Yan was sitting in the living room in a daze with a solemn look on her face. When she heard that her younger brother Situ Nan was coming, she pulled her old face and burst into tears. She immediately turned into a sobbing look.

, looking devastated.

Situ Nan, who had just stepped into the hall door, saw this and quickly stepped forward to support Concubine Yan and said: "Sister, don't be sad. My nephew is fine. He is just being detained temporarily. I believe he will be out soon."

"Soon? Anan, don't lie to your sister. Things decided by the emperor will never be changed easily. He said he would kill Ao'er, and he will definitely kill Ao'er."

"No, sister, you don't have to worry about anything else. I'm responsible for all the big things, right?"

Situ Nan said, waving to the palace ladies, who immediately walked out knowingly and closed the door behind their backs.

Situ Yan held back her tears and asked, "Did the emperor say this? Did he say that he wanted to pardon my Ao'er's innocence?"

"So what if he is guilty, sister, you don't know, right? The fifth prince's current situation is much more serious than that of my nephew, because the emperor has already suspected that he is not a descendant of the Nangong family, and is ordering me to investigate. If this matter is true,

Yes, then Nangong Jie will undoubtedly die. In this way, my nephew will become the 18th generation of the Nangong family. Even if he is guilty, the emperor will find a way to pardon him and let him sit as the prince."

"What? Then Nangong Jie is not the emperor's biological child? Could it be that Concubine Ping committed adultery with someone and gave birth to that bastard?"

"Sister, I'm checking this, so don't worry so much. I can guarantee that my nephew will come out of the prison safe and sound."

"Alas..." Situ Yan suddenly looked sad. She took out a portrait from the drawer and said while wiping her tears: "Dad, my daughter is unfilial and cannot maintain the prestige of our Situ family, which makes our ancestors lose face."

.”

Situ Nan snatched the portrait away and said: "Sister, you are thinking too much. The emperor has always treated me well, and I have commanded the three armies. Isn't this enough to bring glory to our family? How can our ancestors be so honorable?

No light?"

"Hmph, he thinks you can still be used, so he favors you temporarily. When you get older and your martial arts skills are no longer as good as those of newcomers, he will remove you. Anan, our Situ family has been serving as slaves for generations.

As for the Nangong family, when will someone from our Situ family come to take care of us!"

Situ Nan said: "Sister, let's look at it openly. It's already pretty good that we can achieve such an achievement. One person is inferior to ten thousand people. Aren't you satisfied enough?"

"Oh, Anan, no matter how prosperous we are, won't we fall to the bottom just because of someone else's words? Can't our Situ family be the master for once?"

Situ Nan finally understood what Concubine Yan meant, and quickly lowered his voice and said: "Sister, you are so confused. If the emperor finds out about saying such things, he will punish the nine tribes! Be careful what you say!"

"I-" Situ Yan saw that Situ Nan didn't vent her anger with her, but instead blamed herself. She immediately showed aggrieved face and continued to cry.

Situ Nan tried to persuade her for a while, but to no avail, so he had to say: "Sister, the emperor is actually very kind to us. From now on, the Nangong family's power will fall into the hands of my nephew sooner or later. You just have to endure it for the time being and don't do it again."

I’m just thinking wildly.”

"Anan, Anan!" Situ Yan wanted to say something more, but found that Situ Nan had already strode out of Yanming Palace. She was so angry that she kicked and threw her around, making the living room a mess.

"Okay, Anan, if you don't help my sister, she will do it herself!"

Late at night, Zizhuwan.

Duoduo was sleeping drowsily when he suddenly heard someone yelling, as if something big had happened, so he got up and lit a candle and took a look!

Dizzy, it turned out that Jin Lian was talking in her sleep, and she was dancing while talking. It seemed like she was having a great time dreaming.

"Hey, wake up, wake up, Jinlian, wake up!" Duoduo shook the girl hard several times, but failed to wake her up. There was no other way, so Duoduo had to reach out and pinch her nose, and then took it.

A handful of grapes were put into her mouth.

"Ah...hmm..." Jin Lian stirred her mouth a few times and actually ate the grapes, but she still didn't wake up.

"Is there any mistake? This is okay?" Duoduo took another sour plum and threw it in.

"Ah!" Jin Lian suddenly sat up, covered her mouth with her hand and said, "It's so sour, what's going on? It's so sour that my tooth hurts!"

Duoduo smiled and said: "You also know how to be sour? I thought you didn't know anything in your dream, you were shouting and dancing."

"Ah? Sister, am I really dancing?"

"Needless to say, you are still calling out again and again. I don't know what you are dreaming about."

Jin Lian said with excitement: "Haha, sister, it was a good dream, but it was so exciting. I just dreamed of the queen!"

"Queen? Isn't there a queen in the palace?"

Indeed, Duoduo has never heard of who the queen is.

"Sister, it's not that there is no queen, it's just that the previous queen died of illness and has not been canonized again!"

Duoduo said: "Then you are just dreaming about ghosts. Why are you still screaming so vigorously and excitedly?"

"Bah, bah, bah, what the hell, sister, I dreamed that you became the queen, and then I was the celebrity next to the queen. I just dreamed that I was great, giving orders to the civil and military officials, the entire harem, that

They are all centered around us, so happy and trustworthy!"

"Queen? You actually dreamed that I was a queen?" Duoduo laughed and said, "You are too flattering to your sister, right? With my body, it would be great to be a concubine, but how can I be a queen?"

"Why not, sister, please stop being modest. Today Jin Lian finally saw her ice-snow cleverness and amazing talent."

"Amazing talent?" Duoduo smiled and said, "You are exaggerating. I don't care if Bingxue is smart, because I am indeed both beautiful and intelligent, but I cannot say that I am amazingly talented."
