TVISS Chapter 27

Su Jingxuan’s sudden voice broke the tense atmosphere in the imperial garden.

Chu Heng reacted quickly, nodding directly without thinking. The guards around him were well-trained to act quickly on orders the moment he nodded.

“Your Majesty, what are you going to do?”

The emperor’s reaction was also very quick. He immediately took a step forward and stood in front of Wei Zixuan, looking at Su Jingxuan with a dark expression on his face.

The atmosphere at the scene was already tense. He had not yet finished dealing with Chu Heng, and Su Jingxuan stepped in at this moment. Although he didn’t know what the other party wanted to do, he knew from the unkind look on Su Jingxuan’s face that something was definitely up.

“Get away from me; I will kill anyone who dares to touch my beloved concubine.”

He protected Wei Zixuan, directly pulled out the long knife from the guard, and gestured angrily, not allowing anyone to touch his beloved concubine. His love was really deep.

Unfortunately, Wei Zixuan’s heart was not with him. He took a step back in panic. When he encountered danger, his eyes were on the man in brocade nervously drawing a sword for him in the audience. His nominal brother and private true love, the protagonist Gong.

Su Jingxuan saw the irony and ignored him. He still pointed at Wei Zixuan on the high platform with dark eyes and ordered coldly, “Bring him to me.”

“Nalan Yu, do you take me seriously?”

Such a neglectful attitude completely made Yuan Beiyi furious. Chu Heng was just as arrogant. His queen actually dared to ignore his imperial majesty in front of so many people. It was really hateful.

But Su Jingxuan still ignored his rage and stood there, and Chu Heng’s personal guards would not listen to his orders.

When the person was forced to be taken down, Su Jingxuan took a step forward, waved to Wei Zixuan’s pretty face, and slapped him hard in the face without saying a word.

“Slap!”

The slap as loud as thunder shocked everyone present.

Wei Zixuan covered his face and trembled in disbelief, “Nalan Yu, how dare you hit me?”

“I’ll beat you if I hit you. You are a little noble prince. As a queen, you dare to call me by my name even though I am a queen. You are so brave.”

Su Jingxuan sneered, waved his hand, and slapped him again, harder than before, so hard that half of Wei Zixuan’s face was swollen.

“Nalan Yu, you bastard, who allowed you to beat my beloved concubine? Someone come and drag this rebellious bitch down to the heavenly prison.”

When Yuan Beiyi came back to his senses, he was so angry that he couldn’t stand still. He held on to the handle of the throne and felt faint.

Wei Zixuan was his most beloved noble prince. Su Jingxuan slapped him in front of him, which made him even more angry than ignoring his imperial power. Today’s heavy weight almost made him faint.

But the entire imperial garden is now controlled by Chu Heng, all the imperial guards have been subdued, the emperor has no one available, and no one is listening to his orders at this moment.

The ministers even wiped the sweat from their heads, and their legs were trembling, and they dared not move.

They did not dare to disobey the emperor, but they were even more afraid that their lives would be in danger. The situation was pressing. Now it was obvious that Prince Gong was more powerful. Besides, they were all civil servants and could not hold up a sword, so they could only let the emperor down.

“You rebels and traitors are all right. If you don’t listen to me, I will do it myself.”

Yuan Beiyi looked at the people who were completely ignoring him, and his heart was filled with shock, anger, and coldness. He was so angry that he almost went crazy.

It was unbearable. He roared angrily, held the long sword in his hand, and rushed over with murderous intent.

Su Jingxuan looked at it, stopped Chu Heng who wanted to protect him, pulled out the long sword of Chu Heng’s personal guard beside him, went towards it, and cut off the long sword in the emperor’s hand with one sword. The strong sword energy forced the emperor to step back and almost fall.

“Nalan Yu, you, how dare you do this to me?”

Yuan Beiyi was angry and shocked.

No, this is not the timid and cowardly Nalan Yu in his impression. The strong temperament and ability to cut off the long knife in his hand are definitely not the Nalan Yu he knows.

The arrogant Chu Heng changed from the cowardly Nalan Yu. He felt that something was beyond his control.

“The Nalan family is almost driven to death by Your Majesty. What can I dare not do now?”

Su Jingxuan took a step further and placed the long sword in his hand across his neck. The young man’s face showed that he was forced to risk everything.

“Your Majesty, I can tolerate how coldly you treated me, ignored me in the past, but you should never have allowed Wei Zixuan to harm the last bloodline of my Nalan family. That was your prince, and you were so cruel. Be careful, Yuan Beiyi, I tell you, if you don’t give me a satisfactory explanation today, don’t blame me for being treasonous and regicide.”

“What do you mean?” Yuan Beiyi felt a stinging pain on his neck and his voice became hoarse.

Su Jingxuan did not answer but ordered the old eunuch on the side, “Bring the third prince up.”

The old eunuch nodded and immediately patted the little eunuch who was already waiting outside. Then a little eunuch walked into the imperial garden holding a child.

Everyone was confused at first but soon took a breath after seeing the child’s appearance clearly.

They saw that the child was about six or seven years old. He was wearing a dirty prince’s uniform and was very thin. The arms exposed from the sleeves of the clothes were skin and bones, and were covered with deep and shallow bloodstains.

The child’s face was even more horrible to look at. I don’t know who could be so heartless and cruel to a child. He slapped his face with a bloody wound while it was still alive.

Although the child has been simply treated and applied with medicine, and the child is calm and neither crying nor fussing, anyone with eyes can imagine how the child has been abused.

“Your Majesty, this is the third prince you gave to Wei Guijun to raise. Do you still recognize that this is your prince with his appearance now?”

Su Jingxuan’s anger surged when he saw the child. He had already expected that the third prince’s condition would be bad, but he never expected that it would be such a miserable situation.

The father of the harem is valued by his son. In order to consolidate Wei Zixuan’s position as concubine, the emperor gave him the care of the third prince. Even if Wei Zixuan was not the third prince’s biological father, he would not

dare to treat him badly if he had this title.

But Su Jingxuan never expected that Wei Zixuan would be so courageous and the emperor would be so cruel that he would not even let a child go. If he hadn’t been cautious and asked the old eunuch to pick him up today, he would only be able to pick up a corpse tomorrow.

Yuan Beiyi’s expression changed slightly.

Wei Zixuan also realized the seriousness. His face turned pale, and he shook his head and explained, “Your Majesty, I don’t know. My grandma has been living with me in the side hall. I, I really don’t know.”

He really didn’t know that the third prince was not his child and he didn’t want to take care of it at all. He had always left it to the care of the nanny and the eunuchs and maids living in the side hall. Who knew that these servants would dare to abuse the prince.

“You don’t know Wei Zixuan. Your Majesty has given the prince to you to raise him. You are his father. You have to personally take care of his food, clothing, living, sleeping, and schoolwork. Now the prince obviously didn’t become like this in a day. Over the years, you actually said you have no idea.”

Su Jingxuan laughed angrily and looked at Yuan Beiyi again, his eyes burning.

“Your Majesty, you stay in Wei Guijun’s palace every day, only one wall away from the side hall where the third prince lives. Don’t you know that you have never cared about your prince?”

Wei Zixuan bit his lip and couldn’t argue.

Yuan Beiyi’s eyes showed his guilty conscience. He didn’t like the third prince, so naturally he had never cared about him. How could he pay attention to whether the child was okay when they met because he deliberately ignored it?

This silence has given the answer.

Chu Heng’s face was as dark as water, and the soldiers in the northwest were sympathetic and angry.

The ministers also shook their heads and sighed. Normally, people would forget about it, but the third prince is the heir of the royal family no matter what. How could he be treated like this? The emperor was too ruthless.

“Your Majesty, I will investigate this matter thoroughly.”

Facing everyone’s gaze, Yuan Beiyi had to surrender and soften his tone.

Just a thorough investigation, not a disposal.

“I don’t want to conduct a thorough investigation; I want an explanation.”

Su Jingxuan sneered, pushing the sharp sword in his hand a little closer to his neck, and at the same time motioned to the old eunuch to take the child down. The child was young and had already suffered and should not be frightened anymore.

And Yuan Beiyi felt the threat of death looming over him. He had no doubt that the young man with a sneer in front of him could end his life immediately. A person who is cornered can do anything.

Thinking of the young man’s courage to go to the city wall to redress his injustice today, he felt a little frightened in his heart, took a deep breath and gave the order loudly.

“Come here, hear my decree, drag all the dog slaves in Wei Guijun’s palace down and kill them with sticks.”

“Only punish slaves.”

Yuan Beiyi paused, glanced at Wei Zixuan, whose face turned pale, and gritted his teeth, “Wei Guijun is unfavorable in educating the prince. He will be reprimanded, and his title will be taken, and he will be banned for half a year to reflect on his mistakes.”

“The thunder is louder, and the raindrops are lighter. Your Majesty, you deliberately forced me to confess. Since you are not sincere, I will ask for it myself. Come and help me find a whip.”

Su Jingxuan laughed angrily, stopped talking nonsense to him, and directly ordered someone to get the whip.

“Nalan Yu, I—I am Your Majesty’s favorite noble prince. You can’t hit me. Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please save me.” After hearing this, Wei Zixuan was so frightened that he struggled for help. His delicate skin and tender flesh couldn’t bear whipping.

“Nalan Yu, how dare you?” Yuan Beiyi was furious and extremely anxious.

The protagonist, Gong Ye, who had been watching from the corner, wanted to come up impatiently but was restrained and unable to move by Chu Heng’s personal guards.

Su Jingxuan turned a deaf ear and directly tapped Yuan Beiyi’s acupuncture point, took the whip handed over by the soldier, and walked to the panicked Wei Zixuan.

“Wei Zixuan, let me tell you, even if there is no one left in Nalan’s family, there is still Nalan Yu. As many whip marks as the third prince has on his body today, I will pay you back double the number for him.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Jingxuan dropped the whip from his hand, and Wei Zixuan screamed, leaving a blood mark on his beautiful face.

“Queen, the third prince’s business is none of Zixuan’s business, and it is none of Zixuan’s fault.” Yuan Beiyi roared with distress.

“Without the master’s connivance and laissez-faire, how could this slave have the guts to do this under the same roof for a whole year? The sound of children being tortured and screaming in the side hall, as a king and father, really couldn’t hear the whipping in the main hall separated by a wall. He was not unjustly beaten.”

Su Jingxuan sneered and sneered, the whip in his hand came down one after another mercilessly, and the crackling sound of the whip could be heard as if the skin were being torn apart.

In the plot, the original protagonist is weak and easy to bully, but Su Jingxuan is a hard rock. Without the control of the world and being bullied, his life is really in vain.

He has always been a protective person. Anyone who dares to touch his people is seeking death.

He is not even a patient person. It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. But he is not a gentleman. Anyone who dares to mess with him will be punished immediately.

Wei Zixuan was wailing and calling for help miserably. Yuan Beiyi felt extremely distressed but had no choice but to listen to the sound of his skin being torn apart.

None of the ministers, maids, or eunuchs dared to come forward. No one expected that Queen Chunyi, who usually only complained and cried in his palace, would get angry so violently.

The guards and the northwest soldiers had their mouths full, and they couldn’t help but admire in their hearts. He is indeed the younger brother of General Nalan. There is no weakling in the general’s family, and the strength of the whip is unmatched.

Chu Heng looked at the cold-faced young man in the field who was whipping and arrogantly beating people. He felt no fear or disgust but only felt pity. The young man said this not to vent his anger and revenge, but to protect himself.

The Nalan family was defeated, and all his father and brothers died without support. He was the only direct lineage left in the entire family, and the third prince who was half-blooded and bore the emperor’s surname. The emperor did not like him and suppressed him everywhere. If he was not strong anymore, the only thing is to be bullied to death.

Jumping off the city wall, the injustice is unknown, the throne is occupied, the prince is tortured, all of them are like wild beasts chasing after each other, forcing the young man to a dead end.

Chu Heng was in a gloomy mood and looked at the emperor with an extremely serious look.

Here, although Su Jingxuan’s whip is severe, the actual strength is very clever. He doesn’t like to suffer, but he is not a reckless and brainless person. The protagonist cannot die before the mission is completed.

After dozens of lashes, Wei Zixuan was only in agony and howling in pain. Although his skin was torn apart, his life was not in danger.

After all the whips were drawn, Su Jingxuan threw away the whip, picked up the sword again, and walked towards the emperor step by step. The blade of the sword was pointed at his heart, and his eyes were filled with the cold air of someone who was driven to a dead end.

“Your Majesty, I am just a lowly person who cannot compare with your dignity. Now I am asking you whether you will give me the explanation I want.”

“You killed the slaves and beat the others, what else do you want me to explain to you?”

Yuan Beiyi almost chewed his teeth and stared at Su Jingxuan. He wanted to eat his flesh and drink his blood, but he couldn’t really do so because he had a sharp sword on his chest and the other party could accidentally kill him.

“First, give me the third prince to raise.”

Nalan Yu is the third prince’s biological uncle, and he is also the main palace of the emperor, the queen. He is the most qualified person to raise the prince. Yuan Beiyi nodded.

“Second, make the third prince Prince Cong and grant him a fiefdom in Yubei.”

According to Dayong’s ancestral rules, if a prince is titled a prince, he will no longer have the chance to be crowned prince and inherit the throne. If he doesn’t like the third prince, it is okay to be crowned a prince early.

But Yubei is an extremely fertile land, and it contributes a huge amount of money to the court every year. If it is granted to the third prince, in the future, when he and Zixuan’s prince ascend the throne, wouldn’t that create a thorn in the side?

Yuan Beiyi hesitated.

“Closed, or not sealed.”

Su Jingxuan sneered and took a step forward.

The Royal Garden was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, but still, no one dared to move.

“Okay,” Yuan Beiyi was beyond his reach.

“Third, I am ordered to leave the palace and accompany the third prince to the fiefdom.”

If it was the former Nalan Yu, he would let him go, but the Nalan Yu now, with his sharp claws exposed, going to the fiefdom together would be like letting the tiger return to the mountain.

Moreover, Yubei is close to Prince Gong in the northwest. If, in the future, the third prince is unwilling to be the prince and tries to win over Prince Gong, there will be another struggle for the throne in Dayong, and Yuan Beiyi will feel heavy in his heart.

Su Jingxuan stared at his thoughtful expression, smiled, and said nothing, taking another step closer.

Yuan Beiyi felt a pain in his chest and gritted his teeth, “I will give you permission to leave the palace.”

“Since His Majesty has agreed, let’s write the imperial edict now, lest His Majesty regret it when he returns.”

Su Jingxuan opened his acupuncture points with satisfaction, but the sword on his chest was not withdrawn, and the threat was not concealed at all.

Yuan Beiyi stared at him breathing rapidly and really felt dizzy.

When the eunuch came up with the pen and ink tremblingly, he took a deep breath and held it with trembling hands several times before picking up the imperial pen, scrawling the imperial edict, and imprinting it with the jade seal.

Su Jingxuan took it and looked at it carefully.

After confirming that there were no omissions, he handed the imperial edict to the old eunuch to put it away, threw away the sword in his hand, walked up to Chu Heng, and bowed in salute.

“Today, I would like to thank you, Your Grace, for your understanding of justice and upholding justice. Yu’er will definitely repay you with your kindness in kind. I would also like to ask you to clean up the mess. Yu’er will go back to Chengqian Palace to prepare wine and food. Your Grace will definitely be satisfied when he comes.”

Just like a painting changing his face, the boy who was just so forceful returned to being gentle and cute. He was making arrangements with his hands, raising his head, squinting his eyes, and smiling, and he suddenly looked cute.

But at this moment, no one at the scene felt that the boy was cute. They only felt that it was scary and terrifying. They wished they had gone deaf and didn’t hear anything.

“Nalan Yu, you, you…”

Yuan Beiyi’s chest suddenly surged with energy and blood. He put one hand on the eunuch’s hand to support him and pointed with the other at Su Jingxuan, whose face was getting redder and redder.

As a member of the emperor’s harem, the current emperor actually said to the foreign ministers in front of him, the emperor, that he would repay the favor with his body, and invited the foreign ministers to his palace to drink alone in the middle of the night, and even used the fine print of “satisfied.”

This simply means deliberately seducing a man and cuckolding him.

“Your Majesty!”

As the head eunuch of the imperial court exclaimed, Yuan Beiyi felt a sweetness welling up in his throat, his eyes darkened, and he fainted.

When Su Jingxuan saw this, she smiled brightly at Chu Heng and told him again, “Your Highness must come,” before turning around and leaving in a good mood.

After he left, Chu Heng stood there for a long time, then laughed, picked up the wine bottle on the table, and drank heavily. He felt that today’s imperial wine was more mellow and sweet than any other time he had been in Beijing, and he was drunk. The heart and spleen.

“I don’t want to hear any news about what happened today. Please go back.”

After smashing the wine bottle in his hand, he looked again at the courtiers present who were covered in cold sweat and dared not make a sound, and his smile turned into a cold threat.

All the courtiers trembled and nodded quickly, sweating.

After today, the Great Yong is probably going to change.

Regardless of whether the emperor was in any danger after he was so angry that he vomited blood, Su Jingxuan turned around and left the Imperial Garden and hurried back to Chengqian Palace.

Although Yuan Beiyi is not the protagonist, he is a big boss. He will not die so easily. Instead, he is worried about the third prince. Although he is calm on the surface, he is extremely worried in his heart.

The child is only nine years old, and is very fragile. There is very little information about him in the entire plot. He is not even on the list of princes that the protagonist deals with after a successful counterattack. It is conceivable that in this world, he is not being included in the list means that the harem didn’t give him a chance to grow up.

The old eunuch took the person back to the palace first, and he was very sensible and immediately sent the palace maid and eunuch to prepare hot water for the third prince to scrub away the dirt and re-medicate the wound, because the child was too dirty and the wound would be infected if not cleaned.

When Su Jingxuan rushed back, the little eunuch was undressing the child.

“I’ll do it.” He dismissed the eunuchs who were serving him and went into battle himself.

“Hiss.”

But when the child’s clothes were taken off, all the eunuchs and maids in the room couldn’t help hissing, and Su Jingxuan’s eyes narrowed, flashing with a cold light.

From the previous scene, he had already guessed that the child was inevitably injured, but seeing it now, his heart sank no matter how mentally prepared he was.

He is not a person who is easy to be soft-hearted or kind-hearted. He saved the third prince just to complete the task. If the other party is not involved with him, he has never been very nosy, and he does not have that much of a holy heart.

But now, staring at the child’s body, his heart was rarely touched.

The child was whipped, cut by knives, and burned by things. There was no intact skin on the child’s entire body, and there were deep wounds on his face from slaps. Even the prisoners in the prison, few had such injuries.

The child is only nine years old, just an innocent child, but these people actually take his methods lightly today.

Su Jingxuan took a deep breath, barely suppressed the uncomfortable anger in her chest, and tried to soften her tone.

“May I have your name?”

The child didn’t speak but stared at him with guarded eyes, like a lone wolf cub, not letting anyone get close to him.

Seeing this, the old eunuch took the initiative to come over and said, “Master, if I remember correctly, the prince’s name should be Chengmian.”

“Chengmian.”

Su Jingxuan tilted her head and read it again, feeling that it was very good.

Crowned as a king, the artistic conception is very good. The child’s eyes are fierce enough. Even though he was so seriously injured, he didn’t cry. He just stared at everyone who came close to him with sharp and wary eyes. How scary.

It’s no wonder that the child looks at him like this. The original owner has a weak character. If he can’t even protect himself, he will naturally have no ability to take care of the child. Although the two are biological uncles and nephews, they have hardly met each other. To the child, this uncle is no different from a stranger.

Su Jingxuan didn’t mind the child’s guarded and unfamiliar look at all. He took the handkerchief from the eunuch’s hand, wetted it, and carefully wiped the dirt on the child’s face and smiled.

“It’s really scary to stare at me like this. Yuan Chengmian, listen, I am your uncle. No matter what happened in the past, from now on, when I am here, whoever dares to disrespect you again, don’t bear it. If you go back, even if you poke a hole in the sky, I will bear the burden for you. The Nalan family will never be bullied by anyone.”

His tone of voice was not gentle, but it sounded trustworthy.

It’s just that his face is young, and he is not that old at sixteen. He is saying such serious promises majestically like a mountain. When he smiles, his clear eyes are as cute as the crescent moon in the sky, like a child pretending to be an adult. Funny.

The hand holding the whip had blisters on it, and the pain when it touched the hot water made his face hiss and grit his teeth in pain. His serious expression disappeared, and he instantly regained his youthful temperament.

The old eunuch couldn’t help laughing, but his eyes started to moisten again, and he stepped forward, “Master, let me do it.”

Su Jingxuan shook his head and insisted on taking care of it himself. He could use anything to complete the task, but since he regarded the children as people under his wings, he had to treat each other sincerely. He didn’t like to be hypocritical.

“You and I are the only two people left in the Nalan family now. From now on, we will depend on each other. I will protect you and help you ascend to the throne. When you have the ability in the future, you will have to help our Nalan family to gain a foothold. What’s more, toward me, otherwise I won’t like you.”

Su Jingxuan smiled and helped the child apply the medicine without hiding her concern, let alone her purpose and ambition of helping, revealing the truest reality to the child.

“…”

The child still didn’t speak, staring at him with dark eyes. He didn’t cry or make a fuss. He didn’t even frown in pain when applying the medicine. His eyes were alert, sharp, and scary.

But his tense body gradually softened. There would be no pie falling from the sky for no reason. He understood this truth most deeply.

I edited this chapter hurriedly. If there are mistakes tag me in discord and I will fix it.
