Rebirth of Upside Down

Chapter 22 Chapter 22

When Bei Zhao rushed to the palace again, he was told by the little eunuch that Bei Ming, Xie Wen and Xie Jin were all inside.Plus, the emperor doesn't see him.

The imperial study room was lifeless, there were three people kneeling and one person standing below, the emperor glanced over coldly, Xie Jin felt a chill down his spine.

"Prince, what Xie Zihan said is the truth?"

Bei Ming glanced at Xie Zihan who was kneeling on the ground, and then his gaze stayed on Xie Wen for a while.He said: "It's all Xie Zihan's nonsense."

He knelt down and said: "The matter of buying and selling officials is indeed related to my ministers, but it has nothing to do with the two young masters of the Xie family. They just became officials and they don't know anything about it."

When the first sentence fell, the emperor's face was already livid, and when the last word fell, the emperor's imperial teacup had already been smashed in front of him-after all, he was showing mercy in front of his foreign ministers.

"You still dare to admit it, you actually dare to admit it, do you still want to be the crown prince?" The emperor took a few breaths to calm himself down: "Come here, pull Xie Zihan down!"

Xie Zihan wailed and was dragged out again.This time, he will not have any chance to see the emperor again.As the saying goes, a tiger's poison does not eat its sons, but Xie Zihan didn't even care about his own son for his own survival.

In fact, the emperor didn't trust Beiming much, and he didn't think that Xie Wen and Xie Jin really had nothing to do with this matter, but if he did this, Xie Zihan would not die.How can such a vicious and capable person be at ease alive?

"Get up, this matter still needs to be thoroughly investigated, Xie Wenxie Jin, you two brothers don't need to take over any affairs, and you don't need to go to court. I will send someone to notify you after the investigation is completed."

That's it.Xie Jin almost couldn't believe it, and bowed together with Xie Wen: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Walking out of the imperial study room, Xie Jin realized that the emperor had indirectly appointed their officials. If they had any doubts about them, they would never be employed again in this lifetime, unless the emperor died.

Bei Zhao was waiting for him outside the palace gate with a calm face, and when he got closer, he found that there was a trace of worry in the bottom of the other party's eyes.

Xie Jin took a deep breath, smiled, walked over and said, "My lord."

Xie Wen knew that standing here was useless, so he saluted and left.Bei Zhao pulled him over and asked in a low voice, "Are you okay?"

"...It's okay." Xie Jin was startled, and then said.Bei Zhao's hands are very cold, and he has probably been waiting here for him.

This is outside the palace gate, where guards gather and there are many pedestrians.It is easy to be criticized for showing an intimate gesture here.He tried several times to make a move, but in the end he did nothing.

"My lord?"

Bei Zhao held his hand tighter and tighter, and finally let go, but his voice was still emotionless: "Get in the car." The time waiting here was the most difficult time for him, and he was very panicked. , he was hardly that panicked.

With Beiming inside, the emperor would not attack Beiming, but Beiming might not necessarily protect Xie Jin, after all Xie Jin had nothing to do with him.If this is the case, Xie Jin will be imprisoned in all likelihood, and the most terrifying situation is to be executed directly.

His complexion was gloomy and depressing, like the surface of a frozen lake in winter.At this moment, Xie Jin suddenly felt that he had returned to the time when he was six years old. It seemed that Bei Zhao had never changed.

This person just turned his unsmiling smile into a fake smile, and the true joys and sorrows are still deeply buried in his heart.

Xie Jin plucked up his courage, and stroked the other person's hair like Bei Zhao did to him when he was a child. The movement was so light that it was almost imperceptible.

But Bei Zhao still felt it, and he turned his head.Xie Jin said: "I'm fine, the prince doesn't need to worry."

"I'm really fine." Xie Jin hugged the other party: "It's just that I was dismissed from office, that's fine, so I won't be involved again."

Never again, let you worry.

Bei Zhao pushed him away, as if refusing to be embraced by him, then pulled him over and kissed him hard.It was an aggressive kiss like a wolf biting its prey.

Xie Jin panicked, but soon calmed down, opened his lips and teeth cooperatively, and let him bite.He thought to himself, maybe Bei Zhao has some love for him, right?At least for now, there is, right?

This is enough.He looked at the other person's eyebrows and eyes, and took a deep breath, as if he didn't care about anything.

Everything that is shameful or shouldn't be dared to say is now clear.No need to say anything, no need to ask stupid questions like why you like me, as long as we know each other well, that's enough.

The carriage was still moving forward, Xie Jin sincerely hoped that the road could be longer.But soon it came to the end, the carriage stopped, Yun Su didn't know what was going on inside, and said outside: "My lord, we're here."

The two got off the carriage one by one. It has to be said that they were all masters, their breath was not disturbed at all, and their complexions had completely returned to their usual appearance.

It was as if this incident had never happened, Xie Jin became more leisurely, so he read books all day long, and spared an hour to practice.

Although he doesn't like martial arts, he doesn't dislike it either, and he doesn't want to let himself go to waste.Occasionally, Bei Zhao would call him over, and what to do was self-evident.

Xie Wen is exactly the opposite of him, Xie Wen practices martial arts for three or four hours every day, without exception.

But after the two brothers came out, they had the same gentle smiles and treated others equally.No matter who it is, they will think that they are alike.

Soon it was February, and Xie Zihan was finally pushed to the guillotine.The two brothers of the Xie family went to Caishikou, Xie Jin couldn't describe his state of mind.

He didn't feel heartache, turned his head to look at Xie Wen, the corner of Xie Wen's mouth curled into a smile, a little sad, but more mocking, so Xie Jin also made such a smiling face.

Very good, this father has never done his duty well. In his last life, he took advantage of them completely. In this life, he did not give up. He actually wanted to forgive his sin with the lives of his two sons.

In comparison, they are not cold-blooded.Xie Zihan deserved what he deserved, they just stood by and watched.

"From now on, the Xie family will really only have the two of us." Xie Wen collected his emotions and looked at him: "Ah Jin, do you think this is retribution?"

The retribution of cutting off children and grandchildren.It is impossible for him, or Xie Jin, to have any more descendants.

Xie Jin raised the corner of his mouth and smiled, which was very similar to Bei Zhao's usual sneer: "Isn't this very good? There are a few fewer disasters in the world."

"That's right, tonight, don't get drunk."

"It's all about brother."

They didn't end up getting drunk either.The prince came, Xie Jin had no choice but to leave.When he stepped out of Xie's mansion, he smelled a hint of plum fragrance.

"The fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold. But if you can spend your life in peace, who would care about that fragrance?" He murmured to himself.Zhao Cheng was inexplicable: "Second young master, what are you talking about?"

"I'm drunk and talking nonsense."

"..."

When he was about to reach the Sixth Palace, Xie Jin suddenly said: "Don't go back to the Palace, find a restaurant and stay here."

At this moment, he really didn't want to see Bei Zhao.In other words, he didn't want Bei Zhao to see his current appearance.

What does he look like now?Probably like a lone wolf that caught its prey, but was beaten hard by a violent storm on the way home.Xie Jin thought to himself.

Bei Zhao waited in the study for a long time, but he didn't hear the news of Xie Jin's return from his servants.He called the housekeeper over: "Where's Xie Jin?"

The butler truthfully replied: "I went to Xie's Mansion." He didn't know the rest.

The author has something to say: Why is this written... getting more and more desolate?It's not what I expected.
