Yan Zhao still lowered her head and didn't look at Gu Changlan, she was afraid of seeing Gu Changlan's weeping eyes, so she said in a hoarse voice: "Then why do you want to go back to Beijing?"

"The first emperor is old, want to enjoy the joy of family, after the New Year, when I was seventeen years old, I was called back, I went back after the virtuous concubine always indifferent to me, I don't care, but with the royal brother is very good, often wear the same clothes around to play.

"What about Mr. Bailu, did he also accompany you to Beijing?" asked Yan Zhao.

Gu Changlan shook his head and said, "Gushan is a place where secret guards are specially trained for the royal family, and my master cannot enter the capital without his will." ”

Yan Zhao said "oh" very regretfully.

Gu Changlan said: "When I entered Beijing, the prince was already thirty-seven years old, the first emperor did not have the slightest intention of Zen, and I and the imperial brother were young, so he was very jealous of the two of us, and he usually did not associate with us, and he didn't want to invite us to the East Palace for tea one day."

I don't like to drink the strong tea ordered by the East Palace, but the imperial brother drank a cup, and the prince tried his best to try it too, and the imperial brother noticed that something was wrong and excused me to go out with him, and changed the jade pendant on our bodies, and when I came back, I drank the cup of tea that should have been my drink.

Originally, a cup of ******** cooperation was divided into twice as much, and it became a strong poison, and the imperial brother had a seizure that night, and the imperial doctor in the palace was helpless, and he did not dare to use the medicine rashly, so the virtuous concubine used a poison found out of the East Palace, and fed me to eat, so that the imperial doctor could try my hand. ”

Gu Changlan didn't seem to want to say more about what happened that day, so he only hastily revealed this part of the past.

Yan Zhao listened to Gu Changlan's understatement, the hand holding the teacup couldn't help but tremble, she didn't understand why there was such a mother in the world, love wanted to live, hated to die, completely disregarding the feelings of flesh and blood, no wonder Gu Changlan refused to call her mother at all.

Such a flying young man has become what he is now, a surge of anger surged into her heart, Yan Zhao calmed down instead, she looked at Gu Changlan's cold face, and waited quietly for Gu Changlan to speak.

Gu Changlan looked at the neat lights, as if he had returned to that chaotic day.

Some things can be explained in a few words, but when you are there, you can't get through it for a moment.

On that day, the peach blossoms were budding to be released, just after a period of cold spring, the weather was slightly warm, the prince Mu sulfone said that he had a good bow and wanted the two brothers to appreciate, and the prince's invitation naturally had to go.

He still remembered that the cloak that day was an ink fox with silver threads twisted, and the black pressed fur was smooth and smooth, and it was sent by the inner palace.

Since he returned to Beijing, the virtuous concubine has never treated him badly, and what he gave to Mu Cai on the surface must also have Gu Changlan, and this ink fox cloak is one of them.

Mu Cai also wore the same as him, since this twin brother returned to Beijing, his favorite trick was to fool others with the same clothes as Gu Changlan, they all wore the same inside and out, but the jade pendant on their bodies was different.

Mu Cai is paired with Long Pei, and Gu Changlan is matched with Lu Pei.

The two of them went to the East Palace together, Gu Changlan didn't like to drink strong tea with preserved fruits, and he didn't think about it when Mu Cai invited him out together.

Entering the Gong room, Mu Cai quietly grabbed him and said, "Let's change the jade pendant on our body and see if the prince's brother can see it." ”

Mu Cai was tired of this kind of trick, Gu Changlan didn't see that it was inappropriate, he happily took off the deer pendant on his body and tied it to Mu Cai's dragon pendant.

The two of them returned to the main hall with tacit understanding, Gu Changlan sat on the left, and Mu Cai sat on the right.

Mu Yan didn't expect them to change positions, he said gently to Mu Cai, who was sitting on the right: "The third brother is not in Beijing all the year round, and he also tastes the strong tea in Beijing, and he will go to other houses as a guest in the future, but he will drink it often." ”

Mu Cai drank tea, and they played with the rhino horn bow in the East Palace again before returning to the Prince's Mansion.

As soon as he returned to the house, Mu Cai had a seizure, he was lying on the bed with blood from the corners of his mouth, wearing only a single coat, not even a quilt, only saying that there were thousands of needles on his body that were piercing him.

A string of imperial doctors fell to their knees one after another, saying that they couldn't explain what one of the poisons was, and they didn't dare to use it rashly.

The virtuous concubine's eyes were full of tears, and when she looked at Gu Changlan's eyes after knowing the reason, she was like a knife, and the knife saw blood.

She scolded sharply: "You wolf-hearted thing, you actually asked your brother to suffer for you, didn't Bailu teach you well! I really hate that I gave birth to you, and I should have drowned you as a nemesis at that time!"

The sharp voice tore the last veil, Gu Changlan thought that he had seen a stranger, he didn't look at the pity of the people around him, and let the virtuous concubine stick the knife into his heart.

But what was wrong with him, it was not his fault that he was born, it was not his fault that he grew up in Gushan for seventeen years, it was not his will to return to Beijing, and it was not his idea that Mu Cai had suffered for him, why it had become his fault.

Gu Changlan remembered that he didn't cry, he watched Mu Cai lying on the bed, falling into a coma, the imperial doctor on the side was helpless, and a little eunuch came in, holding a box in his hand and said: "Guifei Niangniang, the eunuch next to the prince confessed, this is the medicine found in the eunuch's house." ”

The virtuous concubine suddenly stood up, snatched the wooden box with her hand, poured out two pills from the box, pressed Gu Changlan's mouth almost as if she was enchanted, and stuffed the pill into his mouth.

"Good son, swallow it quickly, if you swallow it, the doctor will be able to prescribe medicine, and if you cure my Cai'er, you can also be cured, if you can't cure it, you will go down and accompany your brother, you are twins, and you should have lived and died together. ”

Gu Changlan heard it in his ears, he only felt that his hands and feet were cold, and he couldn't move, and the people he brought were fighting with Mu Cai's secret guards, and some people came over and hugged him, so that he could obediently take the medicine.

The pill scraped his teeth, and the remaining dregs gave birth to a hint of sweetness in his mouth, as if it was honey mixed with the taste of licorice, which gave him a hint of warmth in the cold.

When the virtuous concubine was about to stuff the second pill into it, the first emperor who rushed to hear the news "snapped" and knocked off her hand.

"Stop! beasts don't eat children, you are not even as good as beasts, how can you match the word virtuous!" The first emperor was furious and reprimanded the virtuous concubine, but the concubine just cried and begged the first emperor to save Mu Cai, forgetting that Gu Changlan had also eaten the poison.

Gu Changlan thought about it, but he didn't know whose ever-bright lamp "crackled", which made him come back to his senses.

He watched Yan Zhao sit quietly and wait for him.

"These things were buried in the loess with the insider, and then I was put in Beijing to hide people's eyes, instead of Mu Cai to live in the prince's mansion, called out to the outside world, the virtuous concubine took Mu Cai to personally find my master to detoxify, the master was unwilling to make a move, but after hearing that Mu Cai was because of me, he took action.

He was afraid that I would be burdened with kindness and would be trapped by Mu Cai for the rest of my life, so he repaid the kindness for me, but he didn't expect to be plotted by someone and die in the lonely mountain. ”

"Did the virtuous concubine do it?" Yan Zhao said bitterly.

"Maybe, maybe not, the virtuous concubine was also assassinated on the way back to Beijing, three years ago I was invited by the imperial brother to return to Beijing, it was to investigate the royal forest army, now I have a little eyebrows. ”

This concubine died so lightly, and she died without repentance for her actions, nor did she receive some punishment.

Yan Zhao only felt that it was too cheap for her, and she asked indignantly, "What eyebrows?"

"The people of Mingyue Tower. ”

"What is Mingyue Tower!" Yan Zhao said angrily.

Gu Changlan laughed softly, the burden in his heart seemed to slowly dissipate with Yan Zhao's anger, and he said in a doting tone: "Mingyue Tower is not a thing, it is a killer organization. ”
