Xue He was dumbfounded when he heard the word "palace."
He had never been to such a place in his life. He wondered what the Third Prince was up to.
"Your Highness, why … why are you taking me to the palace?"
"I'm taking you to see the world!"
"Your Highness …"
"If you speak again, I will stuff your mouth with the sole of my shoe," Na Tuo threatened.
Xue He immediately shut his mouth and sat on the cold carriage. His body trembled as he looked at the man in front of him, who had a strange smile on his face.
He thought to himself, "Is he going to take me to the palace to kneel on the bluestone slabs?"
Thinking of this, his back went numb.
He even felt that he did not have long to live.
However, he could not figure out when he had offended the Third Prince and why he was targeted by him.
As the carriage was on its way to the palace, Na Tuo had sent someone to meet the Second Prince.
Because of what had happened, Na Yan's heart felt like it had been lit by countless torches, burning in front of his chest over and over again. He felt like he was going to burn to a crisp.
The feeling was so bad that he wanted to vomit.
However, he did not expect that not long after he came back from the Ministry of Justice, and the tea in his hand had not even cooled down, someone would come shouting outside.
"Your Highness, someone from the Third Prince's Palace is here."
Someone from the Third Prince's Palace?
Na Yan could not remember how long it had been since someone from the Third Prince's Palace stepped into the Second Prince's Palace.
The last time was 17 years ago!
At that time, he and Na Tuo were not yet adults, but they had already been given mansions.
However, because Na Tuo was the son of the Queen, he was very favored. Even though he had a mansion outside the palace, he still lived in the palace.
He remembered that the King of Huyi had obtained a treasure. It was a very clear luminous pearl. Na Tuo had only said that it was beautiful, and the King of Huyi had given it to him.
Seventeen years ago, the relationship between Na Tuo and Na Yan was not as tense as it was now. They were brothers. The first person Tuo Ta wanted to tell after obtaining the luminous pearl was Na Yan. Thus, he hurriedly left the palace and began to show off in front of Na Yan, saying that it was a gift from his father. This made Na Yan extremely unhappy. He was the son of a concubine, and his status was not stable. Seeing the first prince in front of him showing off like this, he really wanted to die.
He pulled out a fifteen-meter-long saber and chopped it down. Then, he "stomped" the luminous pearl into pieces, but he endured it all.
He only said one sentence, "What's so rare about it? In the near future, there will be countless people lining up to send themselves to me! "
Young, these were indeed the words of a young man!
It was this sentence that made Na Tuo firmly believe that this good brother of his was going to fight for the throne with him. How could that be?
He immediately put away the night-luminescent pearl, slammed the door, and left. Before he left, he said angrily, "I'll take the head of whoever dares to give it to me."
It was also at that time that the two of them completely fell out.
Tuo even gave the order that the two manors were not to interact with each other, much less talk.
After seventeen years, someone from the Third Marquis's Residence actually came to visit?
Na Yan was confused, but he also had a hint of a bad premonition.
"Let him in," he said to the outside.
After a while, the person from the Third Marquis's Residence was brought in.
"Greetings, Second Marquis."
"What's the matter?"
"My master asked me to deliver a letter to you, Second Marquis."
"What?"
The person handed the letter to him.
Na Yan took it and read it. When he finished reading the last word, his eyes suddenly widened.
His face was full of anger.
"Bang!"
He slammed his palm on the table!
Then, he stood up and lifted his foot to kick the short table.
The short table was overturned!
The teapot and teacups on the table were smashed.
The guard outside was frightened, "Your Highness?"
"Immediately prepare the carriage, I want to enter the palace!"
…
Na Tuo's carriage arrived at the palace gate at a moderate pace.
Outside, it was snowing heavily.
He got out of the carriage, and the guard hurriedly put an umbrella over his head.
Xue He, who was tied up like a dumpling, was thrown out of the carriage.
His whole body fell into the snow.
The dense snowflakes were rolling on his body.
He lay on the ground, unable to get up, and looked at Na Tuo, who was looking down on him.
"Your Highness, please let me go," he begged.
Na Tuo sneered, "Let you go? Do you know what you have done, and now you are feeling guilty? "
"I …"
"It's okay, I don't want to hear what you have to say. When we enter the palace, just kneel properly."
"…"
Na Tuo raised his hand, "Drag him up."
Two figures immediately approached him, dragged him up from the ground, and then followed Na Tuo into the palace.
All the way to King Huyi's bedroom!
It was Xue He's first time entering the palace. While he was afraid, he didn't forget to look around.
He was admiring the scenery in the palace!
He had looked forward to it countless times, hoping that he would become the top scholar in the future, enter the imperial court, and enter the palace that represented power.
He didn't expect it to happen in such a way!
It wasn't until he was pressed down on his knees in the snow that he was pulled back to reality.
The coldness spread from his knees to his whole body!
He couldn't stop trembling!
He didn't dare to shout, and he didn't dare to struggle. A pair of frightened eyes stared straight at the magnificent palace in front of him. Even though he hadn't entered the palace before, he knew that the person living inside was not an ordinary person. When he saw Na Tuo standing at the door and saying a few words to the eunuch outside, the eunuch went in to report. A person who could make Na Tuo …
The person waiting outside the door …
Without a doubt, it was King Huyi!
But why did he bring him to see King Huyi?
Other than anxiety, there was also confusion in his heart.
After a while, the eunuch came out, and Li Cheng's brother, Li Qiao, came out together.
He bowed to Na Tuo, "Third Prince."
Na Tuo looked inside, "Does Father know that I want to see him?"
"Of course, so I asked you to enter."
"Okay." He wanted to enter the palace.
But he was stopped by Li Qiao.
"Why are you stopping me?"
Li Qiao pulled him to the side, then looked at Xue He, who was kneeling in the snow, "Is Prince really going to complain to the imperial court?"
"You know everything?"
"Yes!"
"You accompany Father every day, staying in the palace and not going out. This just happened this morning, and you received the news quickly." Na Tuo smiled.
Li Qiao wasn't in the mood to talk to him, so he said seriously, "Prince, if you really do this, the competition between you and the Second Prince will officially begin. You have to think carefully."
"I'm here because I have thought it through! Otherwise, I wouldn't have brought Xue He into the palace. "
"But, the Second Prince is not easy to deal with. This confrontation will cause a lot of trouble in the future. Prince, you should listen to my advice."
Haha!
