Chapter 1271: Court (1)
The guard captain was instantly horrified. Was the Emperor going to imprison King Rong? Why?
The fear felt by the guard captain went unnoticed by Qi Xiuyuan, so he continued, "Hurry up and go back. Keep an eye on him."
The guard captain swallowed nervously and whispered, "Your Majesty, am I the only one guarding King Rong?"
"Then who else do you recommend?" Qi Xiuyuan felt that as long as the other party could keep an eye on Haoran and stop him from leaving the house, he didn’t mind appointing that person to the position of a guard.
If the Emperor wished to put King Rong under house arrest, shouldn’t he be sending the imperial guards? Why was he asking him to recommend someone?
Realizing that he seemed to have misunderstood the Emperor’s intentions, the guard captain immediately changed his words. "Your Majesty, you know King Rong’s personality. Other than Her Highness, he only listens to you and Prince An." Therefore, if the Emperor wanted King Rong to stay at home, it was perhaps best that he gave a direct order.
If his younger brother would listen to him, would he still need to look for the guard captain?
Qi Xiuyuan glared at him, so the guard captain could only return with a bitter expression. It seemed like he could only plead with the Queen Consort.
At this moment, Qi Haoran was hugging the blanket and sleeping soundly. He slept until the latter half of the night before waking up with a rumbling stomach.
With his arms wrapped around Mu Yangling, Qi Haoran rolled over. In a daze, he held his stomach and got up. Mu Yangling also woke up and sat up. "Are you hungry? I asked the servants to make soup in the small kitchen. Do you want them to make you a bowl of noodles?"
