Father, I really don’t want to be the emperor

Hearing Ning Fan's question, Xiaoyu's face turned ugly for a moment, but she quickly nodded: "The Queen said that princes who break the law are the same as the common people. Anyone who breaks the law must be punished by the law..."

"That's true, but there is always room for change. If I can spare his life, I am willing to give you this favor."

Ning Fan neither took the matter completely nor refused completely.

This is equivalent to giving Xiaoyu a small expectation. As expected, Xiaoyu was a little overjoyed and looked at Ning Fan with a face full of surprise!

"Of course, don't be too happy. A living crime can avoid death. If your brother really committed a capital crime, although I can save his life, I am afraid that living in this life will be more uncomfortable than dying."

Ning Fan said to Xiaoyu.

But at this moment, Xiaoyu was filled with the emotion of wanting her brother to survive. She didn't notice the trap in Ning Fan's words. She nodded hurriedly and said to Ning Fan: "As long as he can survive, let him do it." Anything is fine, our family has only had one man like this for several generations..."

Ning Fan said nothing more. He picked up his chopsticks and continued eating. After finishing the remaining wine, he lay on the bed and fell asleep.

Xiao Lingxi came early the next morning, but she didn't talk about Xiaoyu. When it was almost noon, Xiao Lingxi asked seemingly casually.

"Your Majesty really wants to disregard the law for personal reasons?"

Xiao Lingxi obviously didn't sleep well last night. She also knew that Xiaoyu came to plead for mercy. I am afraid that at this moment, she already knew that Xiaoyu had a promise from Ning Fan.

Xiao Lingxi's tone was obviously slightly angry, and Ning Fan naturally felt the emotion in Xiao Lingxi's tone.

"That's not the case. I plan to introduce a new law, which is to send those criminals who have committed heinous crimes to the northwest to mine. After all, we are currently in short supply of labor in Dakang."

Ning Fan said casually.

"Human life is given by God. Of course, murder must be paid with life, but our current situation is different. Let these people save their lives to serve the country. Of course, they will never walk out of the coal mine alive, so let them spend the rest of their lives. To atone."

Ning Fan said matter-of-factly, but when he heard Ning Fan say this, Xiao Lingxi's brows furrowed even more.

On the one hand, she was worried that Ning Fan had let go of Xiaoyu's brother for an affair, but when she heard that Ning Fan had come up with such a cruel method, she suddenly became worried again.

"Aren't you worried that Xiaoyu's brother will hate you when you treat her like this?"

Xiao Lingxi whispered.

"It's important to be on guard against others. She is someone who often lives next to you. You must be generous to those around you and don't offend her too much."

Xiao Lingxi said softly.

Ning Fan naturally knew what it meant to be on guard against others, but at this moment, his face turned cold, he looked at Xiao Lingxi and said, "I'm wondering if I'm too kind. Since ancient times, kings have been the most ruthless. , then Xiaoyu came to me to plead for mercy and made such an unreasonable request. Does it mean that she thinks that I am a soft persimmon and easy to bully? "

In front of Xiaoyu, Ning Fan had no emotions, but in front of Xiao Lingxi, Ning Fan showed his anger. This shows that the relationship between the three people, which one is closer, is clear at a glance.

Even Xiao Lingxi was a little shocked to see Ning Fan turn his back on him, but after thinking about it, he could understand. After all, Ning Fan is now the emperor. If the women around him always cause trouble like this, there will be endless trouble in the future.

"Then how are you going to settle it?"

Xiao Lingxi became a little worried.

She was also in a dilemma. First, Xiaoyu was his personal maid. They had grown up together since childhood. Xiao Lingxi had a sisterly relationship and didn't want to see Xiaoyu suffer too much.

The second is that Ning Fan will never let a murderer go unpunished. This will bury hatred in Xiaoyu's heart. If he continues to keep Xiaoyu by his side, there will be endless troubles, so Xiaoyu There is no doubt that he will be kicked out of the palace.

But after all, Xiaoyu had been Ning Fan's woman, and the two had had physical contact. If Xiaoyu was allowed to get married, Xiao Lingxi was worried about what Ning Fan would think. But if Xiaoyu was allowed to live at such a young age, she would be lonely all her life. If it comes to death, Xiao Lingxi is worried that she will treat Xiaoyu too badly.

"There is no way to have the best of both worlds. Xiaoyu actually made that request to me, which shows that she doesn't understand me. If I continue to keep her by my side, it will be a disaster sooner or later."

Ning Fan said coldly.

In fact, there was one thing he didn't tell Xiao Lingxi, that was, last night, Ning Fan saw Xiaoyu's hatred for Xiao Lingxi in her eyes. At that moment, Ning Fan decided that Xiaoyu could never stay by his side.

Miluo's matter exhausted Ning Fan's energy. Ning Fan naturally didn't take Xiaoyu's matter to heart. In Ning Fan's view, it was just a trivial matter.

In the afternoon, Ning Fan called Zhou Qun and others to the palace again to discuss cultural exports, preparations for the next cultural event of the Fuxing Society, etc.

The Jin Yiwei in the other side of the palace quietly came to Xiaoyu's residence.

"What are you doing?"

Seeing several fully armed female guards, Xiaoyu immediately noticed something was abnormal.

But several people dragged her out without explanation. Xiaoyu screamed in shock, but her mouth was quickly covered. After Xiaoyu was stuffed into a sedan, she gave up completely. She understood that this was Ning. Any punishment for yourself.

"I want to see the queen, I want to see the emperor, I have something to say."

Xiaoyu trembled all over. She knew that this was her last chance to turn the tables. If Ning Fan or Xiao Lingxi were willing to see her, she would have a way to gain chips for herself.

But no matter how Xiaoyu shouted, the people who were holding her remained indifferent. They took Xiaoyu out of the palace at night and placed her in a house outside the city.

At night, Xiao Lingxi came to Ning Fan's bedroom and just said that the matter was settled, and Ning Fan never thought about such things again.

In Ning Fan's mind, Xiaoyu was just a passer-by in life and did not leave many traces in his mind. Although he once had some emotions towards Xiaoyu, they were all a passing thing.

As for what to do with Xiaoyu next, I believe Xiao Lingxi will find a way, and Ning Fan will not think about it.

It is said that the memorial for urgent approval from Babaili has not yet been sent to Miluo, and Ergou has been anxiously waiting for the latest news these days.
