Chapter 214: Divine Will
After Shen Yan left, Huo Qing told Li Chengqi that An Yangping had saved his life with his life's work. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info Li Chengqi was shocked and angry when he heard it. Immediately, he ordered Huo Qing to find An Yangping, that is, to find famous doctors all over the world, and to bring him back to life.
"Your Majesty," Huo Qing said, "When Dashan took him away, he was already ......" and then he knelt on the ground again, "but beg the emperor to spare the life of the fetus in the queen's womb." β
As if it was to repay An Yangping's life-saving grace, Li Chengqi should also let Shen Yan give birth to this child! Why is it the way it is? Li Chengqi's heart was like a flame burning, indignant and helpless...... Thousands of unhappy emotions corroded him at the same time, making him breathless.
Outside the palace, Li Chengmao's assembled men and horses stalled when they saw Prince Ying, the Marquis of Anxi, and the military department Shangshu and other forces leaving one after another. After inquiring, he learned that Shen Yan and the military department Shangshu had joined forces and had saved themselves from a catastrophe of seizing power, and Li Chengmao was relieved. However, he was also a little frustrated. He thought that even without his help, Shen Yan could independently strive for a good job she wanted, and many times, he was not an indispensable existence for her.
No one was happy that night, and no one was a true winner.
Shen Yan returned to the West Palace, and with a slight raise of her hand, Mama Cui and Xiyu suppressed the anxiety and surprise in their hearts. She was so tired that she didn't want to say a word. She only came to the eldest prince's bedroom, looked at the sleeping Li Han, and loved and pity him in every way. It was not until this moment that her heart returned to tranquility and peace.
I saw a white streak rise in the eastern sky. Mama Cui and Xiyu were both worried about Shen Yan's sleepless night. Xiyu wanted to enter the hall to persuade Shen Yan, but was stopped by Mama Cui. Cui Mama said: "Niang Niang wants to be quiet. Just let her be quiet. β
"But it's going to be dawn this day, I'm really worried,......" Xiyu lowered her voice. said anxiously, "The current situation can't tolerate the sentimentality of the mother here." The emperor's body is fine, but I am afraid that Niangniang will suffer, and Niangniang should find a way to make up for it as soon as possible to save herself. β
"Niangniang has her own plans." Mama Cui looks like she is at ease. The only thing she was worried about was that Shen Yan didn't sleep all night, and after going through so many things, her body would not be able to bear it.
"Niangniang's plan is just to have a hard time with the emperor. It won't be good. Xiyu's worries are not at the same point as Cui's worries, she also said: "I have been with Niangniang since I was a child, and I can't understand Niangniang's temperament anymore." β
Mama Cui didn't make a sound. She is also worried that Shen Yan will have a hard time with Li Chengqi, and it will not be good.
In the court, the Manchu civil and military did not usher in the news of the emperor's death, but saw their emperor sitting proudly on the dragon chair as usual. I couldn't help but be surprised. The likes of Anxi Hou were even more frightened by the appearance of Li Chengqi.
"Why, aren't you happy to see me still sitting here?" Li Chengqi's cold voice resounded through the hall. Let the entire palace tremble.
"The emperor's dragon body is unharmed, which is the blessing of the ministers and the people. The blessing of the Great Zhou Dynasty! Your Majesty, Long live the Emperor, Long live Long live! β
In this court. Not all of them are ill-intentioned people, most of them. They are still loyal to Li Chengqi, but they learned the news that the emperor's death was not long last night, and they had to make plans early. Now that the emperor is safe, everything is safe, and it is too late for them to be grateful, so how can they be unhappy?
Soon, Li Chengqi ordered Yuanji to announce a holy decree. Many people's merits and demerits are above this holy decree. But this decree is not just.
Jiao Huaiqing, Marquis of Anxi, and Liu Ji, Prince of Ying, rebelled against the law and wanted to seize power and usurp the throne, and handed them over to the Criminal Department for investigation and conviction; Wesley, the secretary of the military department, learned that he had lost his way and returned to his demerits; The virtuous king Li Chengmao and the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, Huo Qing, have meritorious service, and they have been added to the rank of knight, all of which are justified and well-founded, and there is no bias in punishment and reward, and the holy decree is intended, but only when mentioning the queen of the West Palace, it is said that Shen Yan'er pretended to pass on the holy decree, and selfishly set up his own son as the prince, and deceived the king and deceived the world, and the crime should be punished to death.
Li Chengqi wants Shen Yan to die, and it is death, not even decent! Hearing such a will, Li Chengmao immediately knelt on the ground to plead for Shen Yan. "The queen is wronged!" He said righteously, "Niangniang falsely preached the holy decree, in order to prevent all the powerful from fighting each other, how can the emperor sentence Niangniang to bully the king and the world?" Long hope for the emperor! β
"The ministers implore the emperor to forgive the mother for her innocence." The people who followed Li Chengmao in the past, several protΓ©gΓ©s of Shen Yan's father Shen Shichong, and some loyal and courageous people, all knelt down to plead for Shen Yan.
"Queen Xi escaped from the palace without permission, so that the emperor was assassinated outside the palace, and this alone is a capital crime." Bao Wuyong, the imperial historian of Xitai, who has always targeted Shen Yan and regarded Shen Yan as a disaster, said such words mercilessly, so that some unknown courtiers suddenly knew why their emperor was assassinated, and even made people with intentions make a big fuss about it.
The courtiers were divided into three factions at once, one faction was to protect Shen Yan, one was to protect the Holy Will, and the other faction was neutral. Among them, Wesley, the secretary of the military department who learned of the emperor's resurrection early in the morning, was a neutral. He thought, she, Shen Shiyan'er, did not deceive the king, did not deceive the world, she deceived him, confused him, she should be blamed and punished, but he didn't want her to die. He also had a tangle in his heart.
In any case, all the controversy ended because of Li Chengqi's "retreat from the dynasty". The holy decree has been given, and there is no joke in you. Li Chengmao thought that if he wanted Li Chengqi to take back his fate, he had to think about it in the long run. Fortunately, Li Chengqi did not want Shen Yan to die now, but after the autumn of the next year, so there is still time, and there is still a chance to turn around.
When the holy decree reached the West Palace, Shen Yan was feeding the eldest prince Li Han. After a night of exhaustion, her face was full of exhaustion, but in the face of her own children, she did not lose her smile and gentleness between her eyebrows. After hearing Li Chengqi's holy will, she calmly thanked the emperor, but knelt on the ground but did not get up for a long time. Li Chengqi gave her the opportunity to give birth to the fetus in her womb, and she thanked him for his mercy.
"! Niangniang, you go and explain to the emperor, you did not betray the emperor, you are not wrong, you should not be given death......" After hearing the holy will, Xiyu was furious, and she even did not hesitate to grab Yuanji and tell him: "Yuanji father-in-law, the imperial doctor has taken out the mother's happy vein, and he was framed." The child in the mother's belly...... Niangniang has a child, and she shouldn't have a happy pulse now, Niangniang is framed by someone......"
"I want to say more." Shen Yan got up and stopped Xiyu's words.
"Go on!" Li Chengqi appeared at the door of the hall. He was not looking good, his body was covered with a heavy coat, and he was almost a burden that he could not bear. He stared at Xiyu and asked her to finish what she hadn't finished.
Seeing him coming, Xiyu choked like seeing a straw that could save Shen Yan's life, and regardless of the obstruction in Shen Yan's eyes, she only hurriedly said to Li Chengqi: "Your Majesty, it has not been a month since Niangniang and Anyang Gongzi had such a relationship, so they should not be diagnosed with a happy pulse." This is obviously someone framing the mother, the emperor wants to be clear, and the mother is innocent. β
"Innocence?" When Shen Yan heard these two words, she couldn't help but laugh, and she said to Xiyu: "Xiyu, this palace has an affair with Anyang, and it is no longer innocent." Regardless of whether the happy pulse is framed by someone or not, if the menstrual affairs in this palace do not come as scheduled, this palace is pregnant, why do you need to intercede for this palace again? β
"Niangniang......" Xiyu is saying good for Shen Yan, but Shen Yan wants to bear the responsibility, Xiyu is really anxious and angry, and she can hardly justify it. She thought about it for a while, and said to Li Chengqi: "Your Majesty, child...... Could it be yours for your child? Niangniang only thought that she had a child because the menstrual period did not come as scheduled, but whose child was it...... Your Majesty, what if the child is yours? You can't let your child be born without a mother. β
Hearing this, Li Chengqi also had a little hope in his heart. He walked up to Shen Yan, looked at her closely and said, "Tell me whose child it is." β
"It's from Anyang." Shen Yan did not face Li Chengqi squarely. She didn't want to, and she didn't dare to face it, just afraid to see his desperate gaze.
"Niangniang......" cherishes jade so much, even if Shen Yan says "I don't know", it is better than saying "it's Anyang" so firmly.
"How do you know it's his?" Li Chengqi pinched Shen Yan's chin angrily. "Since it is a matter of Wuxia Town, how do you determine that the child is his, not mine? Since it is the judgment that the menstrual event did not come as scheduled, how can you be sure of him? Yes? The unconsciously heavier force of his fingertips pinched Shen Yan painfully.
Shen Yan finally met his cold eyes, and told him with tears: "Because I don't want to lie to you anymore, don't you understand?" She believed what the Imperial Physician Wu who was killed by herself said, she believed that the fetus in her womb was An Yangping's, she didn't want to deceive Li Chengqi's love for her anymore, she would rather he hate her from now on and abandon her.
However, the phrase "I don't want to deceive anymore" sounds so ironic to Li Chengqi. He let go of the finger that grabbed her jaw and turned sideways slightly, leaving only a sad laugh: "I don't even want to cheat anymore." β
Shen Yan was surprised to find that what he understood and what he wanted to express was by no means the same. She tried to explain, but he had already taken a step away. She couldn't let him understand her guilty words as heartless words, so she ran to the door and shouted at his back: "I have failed you, and I don't have the face to deceive you with lies to forgiveness again." β
Li Chengqi slowed down his pace, glanced at the vast sky and earth covered by heavy snow, and finally did not pause, nor did he look back, only said: "You are still the Queen of the West, and you still live in this Feng'an Palace until the autumn of the next year." But the kindness between you and me, from today onwards, will be cut in two. β
This time, he won't look back unless she is determined to give her heart to herself.
He gave her time to wash her flawed heart, and when the deadline came, she washed it, she was still his sister-in-law, she couldn't wash it, so he ...... Even if he does not fulfill the holy will of bluffing, he will definitely let her live in pain from now on. (To be continued.) )
