Chapter 119: Qu's Death
The emperor's mood at this time can no longer be described as angry.
Qu Fufeng told him that he couldn't have children because he had a hidden disease. The emperor also sent someone to investigate this matter, and found that Qu Fufeng had more than ten wives and concubines, but he had no children, which seemed to confirm Qu Fufeng's statement.
Only then did the emperor trust Qu Fufeng, and he wholeheartedly pampered the concubine.
What he didn't expect was that Qu Fufeng would dare to lie to himself in this matter.
The emperor couldn't help but think that a hundred years later, if he made the child of the concubine the crown prince, then the new emperor was young, Qu Fufeng could do whatever he wanted. What the emperor hates most in his life is that someone covets his position!
The emperor walked around the palace like an angry lion, ignoring Qu Fufeng's plea for mercy at all, but said coldly: "Put Qu Fufeng on death row." ”
Qu Fufeng was dragged down.
"Your Majesty, you killed Qu Fufeng, what should you do with that little girl?" Si Tianjian still insisted on his words.
The emperor was angry, and waved his sleeves angrily: "Then let's become a nun!"
When the news reached the Yongshou Palace, Concubine Lian fainted on the spot.
If this matter is true, then her Qu clan is completely finished. The other party was really ruthless, and he didn't give her a chance to breathe at all, so she was defeated.
This matter is indeed too strange, one by one, as if it was deliberately aimed at Qu Fufeng.
After the emperor was furious, he felt a little strange when he thought about it, so he sent someone to focus on the pregnancy of Si Tianjian's daughter.
Could it be that this woman is a water-based poplar who is pregnant with someone else's child?
Or did someone deliberately frame Qu Fufeng?
As long as Qu Fufeng's sterility is true, the emperor can let Qu Fufeng go.
"Your Majesty, your subordinates have already found out. Yinzhen knelt on the ground and replied.
The Emperor's hand rested on his lap and tapped again and again: "How?"
After Qu Fufeng entered Beijing, he not only lingered in the Liuxiang Teaching Division of Huajie, but also often visited some courtiers and had an affair with his family. The daughter of Si Tianjian, the daughter of the boudoir, is well-read and courteous, and her family education is very strict, except for Qu Fufeng, she has no dealings with any men. In addition, the subordinates also found out that among the women who interacted with Qu Fufeng, not one of the daughters of Si Tianjian was pregnant, and the rest chose to lose their children and settle the matter, so as not to ruin their reputation. ”
After the emperor heard this, the last trace of illusion about Qu Fufeng disappeared.
"Qu Fufeng is such a bastard!" the emperor slammed the table and said.
His words also completely ended Qu Fufeng's career and Qu Fufeng's life.
After Qu Fufeng was put on death row, he was quietly executed without being tried by the Criminal Department.
Concubine Pian was hit hard, and she locked herself in the Yongshou Palace almost all day, and she didn't even see the emperor's face.
At the beginning, the emperor would go to Yongshou Palace to see, and after eating two closed doors, he would not go to Yongshou Palace, but often went to Concubine Shu.
Naturally, Concubine Pian couldn't control the harem, and the control of the harem fell into the hands of the Queen Mother.
In a private room of a restaurant in Liangcheng, there is a unique combination. The two people, an eighteen or nineteen-year-old woman and an eleven or twelve-year-old boy, were Gu Shuiyue and the emperor's twelfth son, Qi Dian.
Qi Dian was raised in the concubine, the concubine had no children, and she was very fond of Qi Dian, and the emperor gradually doted on the concubine, Qi Dian's life was getting better and better. Now in the palace, no one dares to treat him as a prince who can be killed casually.
Qi Dian was wearing a white brocade robe, with a childish face, but his eyes were like the eyes of a person in his twenties and thirties, very old.
"Sister Gu, I'm very happy. Qi Dian poured a sip of tea with a heartfelt smile on his face, "I'm so happy that I can't sleep at night." Qu Jin's mercy is over, and I have finally waited for this day. Sister Gu, do you know? I dreamed that this day I would finally avenge my mother. ”
Gu Shuiyue chuckled: "You are a filial child. ”
A little child, how much suffering has he gone through to get to this day, how firm his heart is, this child, if he is older, if the emperor relies on him more, he will definitely become a big rival of Gongsun Yi. Gu Shuiyue actually admired this little boy.
"Sister Gu, thank you. Qi Dian said from the bottom of his heart, "If it weren't for you, my life trajectory would be completely different, and I want to take revenge, and I don't know what year and month it will be." ”
"Our acquaintance is a kind of fate. I helped you, and I helped myself. From today onwards, our fate will be over, and when we meet again, we will no longer know each other. Gu Shuiyue explained.
If it were known, they would both be in danger.
"I know. Qi Dian nodded solemnly, he would bury his hatred and kindness in his heart, and when he had the ability, he would return the favor.
The two quietly finished their meal, and Qi Dian got up and said, "Sister Gu, goodbye." ”
"Goodbye. ”
Qi Dian turned around and walked out of the box.
Gu Shuiyue sat alone in the box drinking tea.
Things in this world are so unpredictable, and the changes in honor and disgrace are too common.
In the past, how glorious the Wang family was, Prime Minister Wang Cheng and King Jin together, was the head of the civil officials, there was a daughter in the palace as the queen, and a grandson was the prince, and now, the queen fell out of favor and escaped into the empty door, and the prince's status was in jeopardy. and then to the Qu family, there is a pity for the concubine to be favored in front, Xichuan Thorn Shi Qu Fufeng is also the emperor's favored minister, a few days ago, the Qu family was still favored in Shuoyun, but today it has fallen into the dust.
The replacement of the family is actually the replacement of power. Liangcheng is Shuoyun Kyoto, which seems to be far away from the war, calm and serene, but in fact, the fighting has never stopped.
The so-called way of the emperor is to find a balance in this endless struggle.
Gu Shuiyue stood by the window of the box, taking in the scenery of the entire Liang City. In a few months, this seemingly peaceful city will not know what will change.
After all, the storm is coming.
There was a sudden knock on the door of the box.
"Come in. Gu Shuiyue said.
A person who looked like a shopkeeper walked in and said to Gu Shuiyue: "Miss Gu, in the past, on the banks of the Qingjiang River, the scenery was picturesque. ”
The words of the shopkeeper seem to be headless and brainless, but they are actually said to those who have a heart.
Gu Shuiyue is the person with a heart.
Qingjiang River is the largest river in the border city of Wangyue, and Gu Tianlan often pesters Li Ning to go there to enjoy the scenery.
Gu Shuiyue instantly understood that it was Li Ning who wanted to see her.
After Li Ning's defection, the emperor must have been furious, Li Ning had already guessed that the emperor would kill people, so he disappeared from the royal industry, and even Gu Shuiyue didn't know where he went.
Being able to hide under the emperor's nose for so many days, Li Ning is indeed a character.
"When and where?" Gu Shuiyue asked.
"At noon, on the bank of the Qujiang River, climb high again to enjoy the scenery. Then the man departed.
Gu Shuiyue looked at the time, and when the sun was about to reach the center, she walked out of the box and got into the carriage. The direction of the carriage is not Yunwangfu, but the bank of Qujiang Lake.
Gu Shuiyue got out of the carriage and boarded the high pavilion, and saw the figure standing with his back to him, and it was really Li Ning.
"Lord Li is really good at hiding. Gu Shuiyue said with a smile.
"Cunning rabbit three holes, I don't want to die yet. A smile also appeared on Li Ning's indifferent face.
The two stood on the tall building, looking at the scenery in the distance, and at that moment it seemed that ten years had passed, and they returned to Mochizuki and returned to the banks of the Qingjiang River. At that time, he was still a tenacious and stubborn Li Ning, and she was still a playful and cheerful General Gu Xiao.
Ten years is like a dream.
"Tianlan, I'm leaving, leaving Shuoyun. Li Ning said.
"Let's go, Emperor Shuoyun is in a bad mood, you still play a game of cat and mouse with him, once you are caught, it will not end well. Gu Shuiyue said.
"You don't want to ask me where I'm going?" Li Ning said.
"Where are you going?" Gu Shuiyue asked.
"Mochizuki can't go back, I want to go west, to the west, where there are countless small countries, there are Turks...... The Turks are good, there are endless steppes where you can graze horses and sheep. Li Ning said.
Gu Shuiyue laughed 'poof' and said: "Master Shangshu of the Criminal Department, who is good at reasoning and judging cases, actually wants to go to herd sheep? The only advantage of your herding sheep is that after the sheep is eaten by a wolf, you can find out which wolf did it." ”
"Are you looking forward to my sheep being eaten?" asked Li Ning, glaring at her.
Gu Shuiyue couldn't help but hug her stomach and laughed. Only in front of Li Ning, who knows the roots, can she smile so unscrupulously.
Li Ning looked at Gu Shuiyue's appearance when she laughed almost obsessively, and subconsciously wanted to reach out and brush her hair, but halfway through, she automatically clenched into a fist and took it back.
Li Ning filled the two wine glasses with wine and handed one to Gu Shuiyue.
"Tianlan, I don't know when we will be able to meet again, this may be the last time we will meet, drink this glass of wine, and say goodbye. Li Ning said.
Gu Shuiyue took it briskly, touched the cup in Li Ning's hand, and drank it all. Li Ning also drank it all in one gulp.
The two stood still for a moment.
"It's time for me to go back. Gu Shuiyue said. The taste of sending people away was really uncomfortable, and this time, Gu Shuiyue decided to go first.
"Goodbye. ”
"Goodbye. ”
As soon as Gu Shuiyue walked to the door, she suddenly felt dizzy, and her body subconsciously fell backwards.
She did not fall to the ground, but fell into a warm embrace.
Li Ning hugged her tightly, her lips pursed tightly.
Gu Shuiyue glared at him weakly: "You...... What did you put in the wine?"
"Drugged. Li Ning admitted bluntly.
"Why?"
"I know I advise you that you won't come with me. But, Tianlan, Gongsun Yi is your enemy, I can't watch you fall deeper and deeper. So, I'm going to take you away, I'm going to take you to the Western Regions, to the Turks. It won't be long before the world is peaceful, and when the world is in turmoil, we will look for an opportunity to take revenge. Li Ning said.
"Li Ning, you dare!" Gu Shuiyue wanted to say sharply, but because of the weakness of her whole body, the words she said were also soft.
"Tianlan, you can sleep first, when you wake up, we will be in a new place. Li Ning said softly.
As he spoke, he picked up Gu Shuiyue and walked outside.
