Chapter 72: It's hard to give up
The moonlight is surging, and the dark sky is like a huge pearl. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info The spring night is breezy, the corners of the cloak are flying in the air, and the sound of hunting is continuous, especially clear in the quiet night.
Su Wanqing walked briskly between the palace alleys with a glass lamp, she kept looking back, although she already knew that there were people behind her, she still had to pretend that she hadn't noticed anything.
There was silence in the imperial garden, except for a few eunuchs strolling back and forth with lamps. Su Wanqing slipped in at the right time, and finally found the red tile pavilion along the cobblestone path, where Chu Xiuze was already sitting, holding a blue-skin manuscript and reading it carefully.
"Brother Ze!"
Chu Xiuze turned around when he heard the sound and saw Su Wanqing in a trance for a moment.
"Brother Ze, thank you for coming today."
Chu Xiuze pulled the corners of his mouth helplessly, "Wan'er, do you have to do this?" Since you don't want to have Yu Wenche's child, why did you want to get pregnant at that time? Do you know how much this hurts your body? ”
Su Wanqing's face was blushing with shame by the sound of "Wan'er", she had never been used to Chu Xiuze calling herself so intimately.
"Brother Ze, do you want me to give birth to the emperor's child? When the time comes, it will be even more confusing. I had to do it. ”
Of course, Chu Xiuze didn't want her to give birth to the emperor's child, but for some reason, he had a strange affection for the woman in front of him. He cherished her very much, probably because of her blood relationship with himself, which made him want to be close to her.
"I live to take advantage of it, Brother Ze doesn't need to say more. The people behind will be here soon, and after the accident, please do your best to protect the people of Chengqian Palace, inform your aunt, and let her not worry about me. ”
After that, she dragged the poetry book in Chu Xiuze's hand, brewed emotions for a moment, then hooked the corners of her lips and began to read the words on the poetry book, sometimes approaching to ask Chu Xiuze some questions.
Chu Xiuze stared at the flower-like face, and his heart was pounding. The unique fragrance of the beautiful woman lingers in his nose, making him refreshed and immersed.
Suddenly, there was a noise not far away, accompanied by the sound of hurried footsteps getting closer and closer.
"Concubine Niangniang, please return, the night is dark, and the imperial garden is closed!" Several eunuchs shouted back and forth.
Murong Yin'er ignored it, asked the palace people around her to expel the eunuchs, and walked quickly along the route said by the person who reported the news, under the shade of layers of trees and branches, Su Wanqing and Chu Xiuze stood there impressively.
"This palace thought it was the slave talking nonsense, and I didn't expect that there was such a pickled thing in this palace forbidden. Sister Jia, you have an affair with Kehou, how can you be worthy of the emperor's favor for you? Murong Yin'er asked sharply.
Su Wanqing thought that the person who came would be Song Xintong, but she didn't expect it to be Murong Guifei, so she retorted without hesitation, "The hat that the concubine Niangniang gave to the concubine is really big, the concubine just couldn't sleep at night and walked around the imperial garden, and accidentally met Kehou, this is just a poem, and it is said to be an affair, is the concubine Niangniang too much?" ”
"What this palace has seen with his own eyes, how can it be fake? You and the foreign ministers live up to the emperor's favor. Come on, escort Jia Shunyi into the forbidden room behind Yanxi Palace! ”
Su Wanqing glared at the grandmothers who rushed up, "You dare to touch me, I am pregnant with the emperor's child, if there is a mistake, the emperor will wait for the dog's life!" ”
It's useless for her to say anything, those strong grandmothers have the support of the concubine, and they are naturally unscrupulous.
The corners of Murong Yin'er's mouth hooked up with a sneer, and she left haughtily. She has an advantage in this matter, as long as her palace people insist that Su Wanqing and Chu Xiuze are having an affair, and she threatens those eunuchs in the imperial garden a little, Su Wanqing will not be able to escape the charge. But she couldn't have imagined that this bureau was led by Su Wanqing.
The news that Jia Shunyi was escorted into the forbidden room by the noble concubine quickly spread throughout the Sixth Palace. Because Concubine Xian was suspended, Concubine Li's qualifications were far inferior to those of the concubine, so Jia Shunyi, who was pregnant with the imperial heir, could only be detained like that.
Everyone in the harem thought that the concubine would wait for the emperor to return from the expedition before disposing of Jia Shunyi, but the concubine did the opposite, and sent the palace people who served Jia Shunyi in the Chengqian Palace to the Shen Punishment Division, and tortured the palace people, and finally testified: Jia Shunyi and Kehou Chu Xiuze have been ** for a long time, and it is not certain whether the child in her womb is of royal blood.
The concubine acted thunderously, and no one in the harem dared to say no. Originally, Chu Xiuze should have been imprisoned, but the Empress Dowager Zhou tried her best to protect it, believing that it was Jia Shunyi who did not abide by the palace rules first, so Hou Ke made such a big mistake. Murong Yin'er saw her aunt's face, so she didn't pursue it further.

The dark torture chamber was damp and smelled of mold. The cries and screams in the interrogation room came and went, and the painting shivered.
According to Su Wanqing's instructions, the person sent by Murong Guifei for interrogation only whipped them a few times, and she took the lead in recruiting them all, and tried her best to bail Chunlan, Xia He and the others, at this moment they should have been arranged to a safe place by Concubine Xian, just waiting for him to fight back.
What she is most worried about now is what happened to Su Wanqing, I don't know where she is now, and whether she was beaten by the concubine like them.
"Your food, eat it quickly!" The maid who delivered the prison meal suddenly placed the worn-out porcelain bowl between the wooden fences with stinky mud.
Tuqin looked sideways, and struggled to crawl over. It was inconvenient for her hand to be chained, but she still felt the strip of cloth placed under the porcelain bowl, on which a row of small characters was written neatly: Feixin has arrived in Liangzhou, and Qing'er has entered the riot room.
Su Wanqing sat against the wall with her knees crossed, her chin buried between her knees, her eyes staring straight at the empty and dark room, like a frightened rabbit.
The door creaked open, and a little eunuch walked in slowly, but he looked extremely handsome. He walked up to Su Wanqing, put the food box aside, kowtowed, "Princess." ”
"Qing'er... How's it going out there? Su Wanqing didn't move at all, and asked stupidly.
"The imperial court report will be sent to Liangzhou every day, and there is a newspaper from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Murong Guifei was anxious, and it took eight hundred miles to expedite, and she must have arrived in Liangzhou at this moment. Chu Qing said.
"It's hard for you to come in disguised as a eunuch, did I bring everything I asked you to prepare?"
Chu Qing hesitated, but still took out a small porcelain vase, "Does the princess have to use safflower?" ”
Su Wanqing smiled stupidly, but full of helplessness, "From the moment I conceived this child, I should have known that I would be today." Qing'er, I regret it, if I am given another chance, I will definitely not exchange identities with you, I must not meet Yu Wenche! But there is no regret medicine to take in this world, and I have no way back! ”
