Chapter 61: Survival
"I'll come. β
It's just two words, but for no reason, it makes people feel the warmth of being taken care of.
Although so far, Chu Yunsheng still doesn't know his true identity, however, looking at the noble aura he usually exudes, he also knows that this person is by no means an ordinary person.
However, it was such a golden and precious person who was willing to bend down to help her carry the highly poisonous aunt in her body, which made Chu Yunsheng a little surprised.
Seeing that Chu Yunsheng was stunned there, she didn't react for a while, Ji Zhaoran subconsciously raised her hand and rubbed her head, this action was only halfway, and Chu Yunsheng, who had already come back to his senses, took three steps back.
Funny looking at her such an overreaction, Ji Zhaoran raised his hand to untie the bone package of Chu Yunsheng's mother who was tied to her body along the way, and handed it to her, "I'm afraid I'm afraid I'm incapacitated, you can keep this by yourself first." β
Chu Yunsheng took it, and the moment she crossed the package, there were tears in her eyes, but in the next moment, she had already packed up her feelings and neatly tied it to her shoulders.
Without any more delays, Ji Zhaoran bent down, smiled apologetically at Xiao Yijun, and said softly: "Offended." β
In the next moment, he hugged Xiao Yijun, turned over and crossed the bottom of the bed, and slid directly into the secret room, Chu Yunsheng followed behind, closing the exit, and then followed Ji Zhaoran, who had already tied Xiao Yijun to his back and walked in front.
Although my aunt has lost a lot of weight after being tormented by toxins in the past few months, she is much taller than the average daughter, so it is not easy to carry it.
But Ji Zhaoran carried it steadily, his steps were still calm and steady, and he didn't see the slightest sign of difficulty.
There are many secret road forks, all the way twists and turns, some sections of the stone wall on both sides of the night pearl illumination, some do not even have a lampstand, it is completely dark, can only rely on the sensitive six senses of two people to identify.
Therefore, Chu Yunsheng was extra careful with every step he took, and they walked for nearly an hour when it was supposed to be half an hour.
********
Yunshang Palace.
From the gate of the palace to Concubine Rou's bedroom, she was surrounded by the Imperial Forest Army inside and out.
At that time, it was almost dusk, and the fire that burned in the imperial study for no reason had just been extinguished, and the news of King Zhao's death in the sea of fire had spread to all parts of the palace, the government and the opposition.
Concubine Rou sat on the ground in a dejected manner, and at her feet was the funeral edict written by the third prince half an hour ago.
Her name is prominently listed.
Half an hour ago, along with the news of King Zhao's death reached the palaces, there was also the news that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had attempted to commit suicide by hanging himself from the palace.
When she heard the bad news one after another, she only felt that her sky had fallen in an instant.
However, a strong sense of survival supported her, she couldn't just die, she still had an unborn child in her belly, so she cried and knelt and begged the guards at the door to help her spread important news to the third prince in person.
Whether she can survive or not depends on whether the third prince can see her at this time.
It was already snowing outside, and the cold wind was like a knife on people's bodies and faces, and Concubine Rou sat on the ground as if she was completely unconscious, only her eyes were staring at the gate with extreme nervousness.
Finally, before she was frozen into an ice sculpture, there was a commotion outside the door, followed by the sound of kneeling on the ground, and finally there was that sharp and solemn figure at the door.
Changing the purple straight embellished court clothes that he wore in the past, He Rong was dressed plainly at this time, and compared with the usual Fengshen handsome, he looked a little more cold and cold at this time.
"I don't know what the so-called thing is that Concubine Rou is looking for this palace?"
is also different from the estranged and polite greetings in the past, he walked in directly, looking at the door, it seemed that he was not willing to stay here for a while longer and waste a little time, looking at Concubine Rou's eyes with a bit of indifference.
"Your Highness, although I have recently received a ...... from the Great King No, the first emperor favored him, but he has always been low-key and easy-going, and he never bullied others and assassinated others, and he never lost the slightest rudeness to His Royal Highness...... Therefore, please spare my life, Your Highness. β
He Rong's gaze swept over her coldly, and there was no emotion in his tone: " Rou Concubine Niangniang is talking about what to say, so that outsiders listen to it as if the palace is bullying you, the widow of the father, although there was a concubine burial system at the beginning of the founding of the Zhao State, but because it is too inhumane, so these generations of kings have abolished this system, the palace is just a little prince, where dare to trespass, let the Rou Concubine Niangniang go with the father's will, but the father himself, this is the father's will, so how dare I disobey, but it also shows the father's love for the Rou concubine Niangniang is not? Even if you go to the Three Thousand Bliss, you don't forget to bring Concubine Rou with you. β
How could King Zhao make such a will, Concubine Rou is naturally not a fool, but now, the life and death of herself and the child in her womb are all in the hands of the person in front of her, at this time, everything he said is right, and she is willing to do whatever she wants.
"The concubines can't afford the love of the first emperor, and the three thousand bliss must be fairies like clouds, and the concubines who can't wait to go on the stage are only afraid that they will pollute the way of the first emperor, so please ask the third highness to save me." Concubine Rou suddenly knelt on the ground and grabbed the hem of He Rong's clothes, crying miserably.
He Rong looked at Concubine Rou kneeling at his feet expressionlessly, and the corners of his mouth outlined an almost cruel smile and said: "Concubine Rou said that she has something important to tell her, is that all? If not, this palace will not accompany you." β
Seeing that the bitter meat plan was no longer successful, Concubine Rou immediately sat up straight, wiped the tears on her face, and said: " I know, the first emperor died, the prince committed suicide, the world of the Zhao country is the three highnesses, the three highnesses said is the will, now only the three highnesses can save me, the three highnesses have thought about it, overnight, the first emperor died the prince forced the palace, as the third prince you succeeded to the throne, such things, must be criticized by the world, especially many of the ministers in the government and the opposition are still princelings, as long as your highness can let me go, I am willing to stand on the side of your highness, the accusation is that the prince tried to rebel against the palace and committed suicide, with me, the emperor's favorite concubine to corroborate, how much can block the world's people like a blade-like penγ β
Hearing this, He Rong snorted coldly and sneered: "This palace has never cared about the opinions of people in the world, and this palace has always only believed in absolute killing power. β
As he spoke, he turned around and was about to leave, and when he was about to step out of the threshold of Yunxiu Palace, Concubine Rou, who was already almost desperate and desperate, finally relented and cried: "I am willing to exchange the secret of the heavenly death that I know." β
He Rong seemed to be interested at this time, stopped his steps, and turned his head to look at her.
