The day will tell

"Father!" Jianing shouted in discoloration, as she watched the ashes of the paper fall in front of her, as if she had been pushed down the abyss.

And the person who pushed her was still her father, whom she always respected and trusted the most.

Emperor Nan Cheng held his breath and inhaled, kept his dragon face unfazed, turned around and looked down condescendingly at Jianing, who was sitting on the ground, this was a rare moment for him to have the air of an emperor in so many years, at this moment he finally didn't have to hide or hide, just like Qin Fengge said, Jianing forced him to this point, he wouldn't bear it anymore.

"Jianing, get flat. Jianing's heart was turbulent, there were tears in his eyes, and he looked at him in disbelief, but he still smiled at the corner of his mouth, and reached out to help his eldest daughter get up, like a loving father, but this appearance added a bit of hypocrisy against the background of the golden dragon robe.

Jianing's eyes were wet, and she looked at Emperor Nan Cheng fixedly, and asked unrelentingly, "Why? Why, Father?"

Emperor Nan Cheng said: "Jianing, Luo Yunmen's surveillance of the hundred officials in the court is strict enough, so strict that the courtiers are all afraid, can you know how much this hurts people's hearts? How bad is it for political affairs? Nowadays, the courtiers have a lot of criticism." Are you going to point the finger at your imperial brother again? Jianing, why is this Luoyunmen so intolerant?"

Jianing was stunned, and his eyes were cracked, "Father is saying that I used Luoyunmen to deal with Jiayin? Father, the evidence has been presented to my father, does my father not want to admit it, nor do I want to believe Jianing's words? Or ...... Intentional favoritism?"

Emperor Nan Cheng was a little weak-hearted, fleeting, and said with a tough attitude: "Jianing, it's not that my father is partial to Jiayin, my father knows that you want to help Jiayi, but Jiayin is also your emperor's brother, why do you have to treat him like this? As the eldest sister and the head of Luoyunmen, how can you be so favoritistic? Do you know that this will make the palace unstable? Do you have to disturb my front hall and back harem?"

Jianing's heart hurt like a split heart, she finally saw clearly, this is her father, this is the true intention of Emperor Nancheng, in his eyes, she, the head of Luoyunmen, and the entire Luoyunmen, are all threats to the stability of the court, and even in order to hide his selfishness, he can find this reason to refute her.

Jianing knelt down again and said, " Jianing's appointment as the head of Luoyunmen did not fulfill his responsibilities, and it was a sin to make his father worry, but his father, Luoyunmen was not guilty, for a hundred years, Luoyunmen Governor and Governor were only to protect Nanke's stability, seek perfection in everything, dare not make mistakes, everything is impartial, no matter which head of the family will never dare to use his power for personal gain, Jianing is not in charge of Luoyunmen, and he admits that he has been, but Jianing swears to the sky, I never dare to use Luoyunmen for personal purposes, and thoroughly investigate Jiayin's affairs, it is also absolutely impartial, and the evidence is conclusive, and the father burned the testimony and ignored Jiayin's faults...... Where did you place the Luoyunmen Decree?"

"Presumptuous!Jianing!Are you holding me accountable? I naturally have my considerations for doing this, how can you be suspicious?" Emperor Nan Cheng was angry and shouted angrily at Jianing.

Jianing held on, stiffened his body, and forced himself to figure it all out: "If you suspect that you are wrong, you can guess, but if you guess correctly, you shouldn't guess...... Jianing wants to ask his father directly, does his father really want to make Jiayin the prince?"

Everything is confessed, Emperor Nancheng is no longer obscure, he said: "Yes! Jiayin is the eldest son, and it is also necessary to appoint him! Jianing, I know that you want me to establish Jiayi......

He was ready to argue with Jianing about Jiayi, but Jianing directly interrupted him and asked him angrily: "Then in order to let Jiayin get the throne, can the father and emperor ignore the law and help Jiayin to disrupt the court? Father, don't you want to set up Jiayi, just help Jiayin like this? Father, you are the king of a country! Which is more important than the stability of the court and the ownership of the throne!"

Emperor Nan Cheng trembled with anger, pointed at Jianing, and said: "Jianing, you are so bold! How dare you criticize me like this? I have no connivance with Jiayin! Jiayin has never committed such a mistake! Jianing, don't frame your imperial brother again! Luoyunmen's Qing Dynasty order has been investigated, and even your second imperial brother has to be investigated! Who else is going to be investigated! Is it that sooner or later it will be found on my head!"

Jianing kowtowed: "Jianing doesn't dare! Father, please stop being angry!"

She got up and looked at the back of Emperor Nan Cheng, her voice was sad, as if her heart was dead, "Father, what about the death of Mr. Tan?"

Emperor Nan Cheng was stunned for a moment, turned around, gritted his teeth and asked her, "Old Mr. Tan committed suicide!

Jianing looked at Emperor Nancheng and replied: "Father, on the day Mr. Tan committed suicide, he came to the imperial study to see the driver, and then went to the Zhaoming Palace, and told Jianing that he was leaving, and showed that he supported Jiayi, I'm afraid, his wishes were also expressed to his father...... It's just that he disobeyed his father's intentions, so he died at the most damned time......"

"Jianing!" Emperor Nan Cheng said angrily: "Are you suspecting that your father forced Mr. Tan to death?"

She didn't say anything, but said: "Mr. Tan died by drinking the wine given by his father, and burned a copy of "Mingjun Collection" before he died......

"But isn't he the only one who can match the poison in that wine?

Jianing said: "But Mr. Tan is a master of Confucianism, and he is committed to etiquette, if he really did not have the intention of his father, he would never commit suicide by mixing poison in the wine given by the emperor, but he did it......"

Emperor Nan Cheng was silent, he looked at one place fixedly, not looking at Jianing, nor looking at anything, just like that, he didn't want to argue anymore, this was his last dignity as the Ninth Five-Year Emperor.

Jianing knelt down again, speechless, tears flashed in his eyes, and after worshipping Nancheng Emperor three times, he got up and walked outside the hall.

"Jianing ......" Emperor Nan Cheng called her, did not confront her, and asked her: "You just don't want to believe that your father didn't do it...... Isn't it?"

Jianing looked back at him and said, "Jianing has believed it, but Jianing would rather believe that none of this happened......"

She walked out of the imperial study, struggling, sad, walking alone under the cool night sky, after walking out of the corridor in front of the imperial study, she saw someone waiting in front of her.

"Jianing ......" Ji Changan frowned and called softly.

She walked towards Ji Chang'an, standing opposite him, in front of him, her tears burst out of her eyes, flowing unscrupulously, she sobbed and said: "I just found out how jealous my father is of Luoyunmen, I always thought that I was the head of Luoyunmen to be loyal to the country, but I became a threat in the eyes of my father, and in the eyes of my father, Luoyunmen has no meaning at all...... Then what is the meaning of my existence? My father does not want to establish Jiayi, he wants to establish Jiayin, he does not want to establish Jiayi, and moreover, Jiayi does not want to compete for the crown prince...... So what's the point of what I'm doing? I'm only now realizing that I've been a joke for so long! They don't care, only me...... I can't finish my mother's will......"

Jianing complained bitterly to him, revealing his confusion and sadness in front of him. Ji Changan raised his arm and took her into his arms, let her bury her in his chest and cry, hugged her with pity, and kissed her hair: "It's okay, Jianing, it's okay...... All this has happened, you can only face it, in fact, you have already understood, you just don't want to see through it......"

"No, why should I bear this?Why should I force it when everyone doesn't care?I'm tired, I don't want to go on like this, neither the princess nor the head of the house I want to do!" All the pent-up emotions burst out, and it was the deep despair and powerlessness that spurred on the rebellion in her heart.

She shook her head: "Yes! I don't want this anymore! No! I don't want to fight fearlessly anymore! I've had enough!"

"Why can't I live for myself?" she asked, as if she were awake suddenly.

Ji Changan looked at her stunned, but her throat seemed to be choked, and after a long time, she said with difficulty: "Yes, of course you can live for yourself......"

Ji Changan met with Mo Li when he entered the palace to find Jianing, Mo Li knew that only Ji Changan could appease Jianing, so he retreated to another road so that they could be alone, but after waiting for a long time and not seeing them coming, she went to take a look, there was no one on that road, presumably they went from another road, Mo Li led the princess's guard of honor back to Zhaoming Palace.

Mo Li came to the hall many times, but there was no sign of Jianing in the hall, and at night, she came again with a lamp and asked the tassel waiting at the door: "Is His Highness back?"

Tassel replied, "No, the door of the temple has been closed, and there should be no one in the temple." ”

Mo Li stayed outside the palace almost all night, until he received information from the secret guard, saying that Jiayi wanted to go out of the palace at night, according to what they investigated, it was Jiayi and Shen Huayin who eloped with each other, Mo Li was surprised, and hurriedly asked Jianing to report the situation, and broke into the inner hall in a hurry, but saw that there was really no one in the inner hall, and on the jade case, there were Jianing's peacock golden hairpin and Luo Yunmen's head token.

Mo Li was shocked for a while, first put away the golden hairpin and the token, and then hurriedly went to Shaohua Palace to stop Jiayi.

Jiayi is the prince, even if the secret guard knows his intentions, he doesn't dare to stop it, so he can only report to the top first, and when Mo Li knew the news, it was nearly three watches, and she learned that Jiayi was secretly sneaking in the direction of Nangong Gate, so she led the secret guard to chase after him urgently.

Jiayi avoided the palace gate guards, evaded the royal forest army patrolling the palace, climbed out of the palace wall, and not far from the south palace gate, there was Changle's carriage waiting.

He appeared in front of the carriage as promised, and Changle told him to get on the carriage quickly, and would send him to the South City Gate to meet Shen Huayin.

"Your Highness! Wait!" Before Jiayi got into the car, Mo Li arrived and flew in front of them.

Jiayi and Changle were startled, Changle reacted first, and pushed Jiayi to the carriage: "Jiayi, you go first!

He stopped Mo Li: "Mo Li, just let Jiayi go!"

Mo Li directly pushed him away, mercilessly, stopped in front of Jiayi, and said hurriedly: "Fifth Highness! You must not run away without permission! If Your Highness leaves Her Royal Highness like this, aren't you afraid that the princess will be sad? How can Your Highness live up to the princess's hard work so much!"

"Sister Mo Li......" Jiayi also began to hesitate, and he didn't know where to go for a while, there was his imperial sister in the palace in front, and Shen Huayin was waiting outside the city gate behind, he knew that he was going to lose someone tonight.

Mo Li persuaded again: "Can Your Highness really betray the princess so ruthlessly? Her Royal Highness the princess has been planning for your Highness for so many years, and you have worked so hard to betray her so easily? What about the last wish of the former queen? Can Your Highness also ignore it? What is this great cause in your eyes? Can you completely abandon it for your own selfishness?"

In fact, she was not only asking Jiayi, she also wanted to ask Jianing.

"But Sister Moli, I can't bear the sound of painting......" Jiayi bowed her head.

Mo Li glanced at him, kowtowed, and said, "Please return to the palace with the Fifth Highness!"

Changle saw that Jiayi was a little shaken, and hurriedly pushed him: "Jiayi, you go straight, I'll deal with them!"

Jia Yi's heart turned around, Mo Li gritted his teeth and blurted out: "Her Royal Highness the princess is gone!"

"What?" both Jiayi and Changle stopped.

Mo Li said to Jiayi: "Fifth Highness, what Mo Li said is true! Her Royal Highness the princess is already missing, if Your Highness leaves the palace at this time, it will really cause a big disaster!"

"How can this be? Why did the imperial sister ......," Jiayi said unconsciously.

Mo Li said indifferently: "I have to ask Your Highness about this." ”

"Is the imperial sister angry with me?" Jia Yi looked worried.

Mo Li didn't say anything, and kowtowed again: "Please return to the palace with the Fifth Highness!"

Changle wanted to say more, but Mo Li turned his head to look at him directly: "Eldest grandson Changle! If at this critical juncture, you still only care about your personal feelings and ignore the general righteousness, then you are really not a person worthy of my friendship! You and I will never be possible in this life!"

The third watch has passed, dawn is approaching, Changle's carriage drove outside the south city gate, Shen Huayin pounced and shouted: "Brother Jiayi!"

However, there was only Changle and no Jiayi in the carriage.

Her joy instantly turned to loneliness. Changle looked depressed and said in a low voice: "He won't come, he chooses to stay." ”

Shen Huayin glanced at the gate of Chang'an City, with tears in his eyes, smiled bitterly, then turned around and got on his horse in a dashing manner, galloped away, and disappeared under the twilight sky.
