Chapter 190: Public Enemy

For some reason, things went the way they went. Whether Shen Yan www.biquge.info have had an affair with An Yangping is not only a matter between Li Chengqi and Shen Yan, but also a matter of the harem! In this way, if Li Chengqi does not handle this matter well, the matter will be further expanded, and it will eventually become a matter that cannot be tolerated by the ministers of the DPRK and the central government, and even by the people.

It's just that Li Chengqi obviously blocked the news, how did Empress Dong, Jiao Guifei and others know, and forced Shen Yan into a desperate situation so quickly?

"Su You!" Li Chengqi couldn't help but have some suspicions that it was someone who was disloyal in the West Palace. Therefore, he asked Su You, the head of the West Palace, to kneel in front of him to ask him about his crimes.

However, Su You insisted that the people who went down to the West Palace to light a fire in the small kitchen had served in the Second Prince's Palace in the past, and they were personally selected by him, and it was impossible for everyone in the West Palace to betray the emperor. He Su You, dare to use the head of the item to vouch.

"Your Majesty," Shen Yan, who seemed extraordinarily calm at this time, reminded Li Chengqi, "Why can't the person who slandered you and said that his concubine was unchaste, tell others the same thing?" ”

Li Chengqi suddenly realized, only to feel that he was in a hurry. However, the person who told him only aroused his anger and suspicion with just a piece of paper, and it was he who sent someone to the Xianwang Mansion to find out that there were indeed two Nanzhao women who were left by Li Chengmao, so that what happened last night happened. And from beginning to end, he didn't know who the whistleblower was.

However, this is not the time to pursue the whistleblower, but to face the Eastern Empress Wei Min and the six palace lords who brought them to add to the chaos.

"No matter what happens outside, you don't care, just take good care of yourself." When Li Chengqi went out. instructed Shen Yan. The storm outside, he planned to resist alone.

In the end, he still protected Shen Yan. When everyone forced her to a desperate situation. He intended to be on her side and love her. Protect her.

His position was clear, which made Shen Yan forget his cruelty last night, and the ear of melon seeds he rewarded her with anger. Now that it is time to be unanimous with the outside world, how can she be angry with it? She got up and ordered Mama Cui and Xiyu to wait for her to freshen up and change her clothes.

"Niangniang, your body ......" Mama Cui hesitated.

"Yes, Niangniang," Xiyu also said hurriedly, "The emperor asked you to rest here, you will listen to the emperor, right?" ”

Shen Yan still got out of bed. She wanted to see it. How did Li Chengqi retreat from the women outside the hall who wanted to die without a place to be buried. She asked Gong E, who was in charge of the robe, to bring her a red phoenix robe to put on, and ordered someone to comb her hair in a bun that looked very energetic. With a phoenix crown, and then let Xiyu paint a delicate makeup for her, she also felt satisfied. Yes, she is planning to meet those sisters and sisters with such a face.

Looking in the mirror, she was the only one worried. She stroked the face that was slapped by Li Chengqi last night, and asked Xiyu: "My face is still a little swollen?" ”

Xiyu took a closer look at her. Nodding worriedly, she replied, "Look closely, there are still some." ”

Shen Yan couldn't help but sigh. However, she soon stopped worrying. only instructed Gong E to bring a piece of red yarn. After a while, she used this red veil to half-cover her face. Dress up like this. does not hide the delicacy of her makeup, nor does it leak the swelling of half of her face. At first glance, it adds to her mystery and charm.

Outside the main hall. Wei Min, Jiao Guifei, Ling Meiren and others couldn't kneel for a long time. They kept asking Li Chengqi to depose Empress Xi and punish her for the crime of infidelity. It's all because when they got up in the morning, they all received the kind of document that Li Chengqi received last night - the document that revealed that Shen Yan and An Yangping had an adultery. The handwriting of the Chinese book in their hands and the handwriting on the documents that Li Chengqi received. It's from the same person.

"Minmin, can't they think that someone deliberately framed Yan'er, don't you think either?" All of Li Chengqi's words were aimed at Wei Min. He knew that she started this matter, persuaded her, and others could also suppress it.

However, Wei Min came prepared. Since she came, she wouldn't go back easily. She said: "Your Majesty, if only based on these whistle-blowing letters received by the concubine and sister, the concubine would not have convicted Yan'er's sister so firmly. The concubine has another witness. ”

"Where's the witness?" Li Chengqi wanted to see what kind of witnesses she could draw.

At this time, Huo Qing suddenly rushed over from outside. He approached Li Chengqi and whispered a few words in his ear. After hearing his words, Li Chengqi's face changed greatly, and he immediately ordered him: "Look for it again!" Be sure to find her. ”

"What the emperor is looking for, but Nanzhao is a girl who is Nianen?" Wei Min suddenly took Li Chengqi's words and asked like this, and Li Chengqi was shocked when he heard it. Before he could ask anything, she told him on her own: "The concubine has asked people to protect Miss Nian'en." She lowered her eyebrows, but her words were not weak at all. She even said to Li Chengqi plainly: "Miss Nian'en is the witness mentioned by the concubine." ”

Shen Yan was knocked out by Li Chengqi with a slap last night, Li Chengqi didn't want to hold anyone responsible, let people block the West Palace, and even let people dispose of the dead Nian Ci, and guard the living Nian En in the lower room of the West Palace. Nian'en saw her sister's death, and was afraid that her sister's fate would soon be her own fate, so when she found an opportunity, she hid her sister's body in the lower room, while herself, pretending to be her sister's corpse, was carried to a place rarely visited in the harem, and threw it into a dry well.

By chance, she was bumped into by Jiao Huaiqing, who sneaked to the harem late at night to meet Jiao Huaiyu. Under Jiao Huaiqing's coercion and temptation, she had to reveal her identity and tell him what happened to her. Jiao Huaiqing naturally shared this "beautiful thing" with his sister Jiao Huaiyu. The whistleblower letter that appeared in the harem the next day made Jiao Huaiyu hand over Nian'en to the Eastern Empress Wei Min, and instigated her to unite with all the houses of the harem to deal with Shen Yan together.

Wei Min persuaded Nian'en that as long as she was willing to prove that Shen Yan had an affair with An Yangping, she would find a way out for her, and Nian'en agreed.

They made up their minds that they could not force their emperor to execute Shen Yan this time, and they also wanted the emperor to expel Shen Yan from the palace forever.

"Your Majesty," Wei Min said with the secret letter in his hand, "I am afraid that such words are not only in the palace now, but also outside." If the emperor protects Yan'er's sister again, where is the prestige of the royal family? ”

"Minmin, you shouldn't be that kind of person." In Li Chengqi's heart, Wei Min has always been a gentle, graceful, generous and polite person, and now she really taught him an accident.

"That's it! Stand down! Those who violate the order will be killed. "He has said everything he should say, and at this point, he can only use his dragon power to shock everyone for the time being.

However, his violent aura was enough to deter other concubines, but it could not deter Wei Min, Jiao Huaiyu, Ling Meiren and others. These people know him too well.

"Your Majesty," Wei Min took the lead in expressing his intentions, "The concubines and others are dead admonitions, and they must also listen to the emperor's explanation." ”

"Minmin, you ......" Li Chengqi's eyelids narrowed slightly, and the leaked fierce light made the bodies of several concubines tremble. But when they saw that Empress Dong and Concubine Jiao Guifei were not half afraid, they did not flinch. Seeing this situation, Li Chengqi couldn't help but draw the saber of a guard nearby, pointed directly at Wei Mindao, "Do you dare to disobey my order?" ”

He pointed a knife at himself, and Wei Min was naturally a little surprised. But she wasn't afraid, she didn't believe it, and Li Chengqi would slaughter her. Of course, she was still stimulated by his action. She craned her neck slightly, almost approaching the blade in his hand and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive your concubine for not wanting to share the name of the queen with an unchaste woman." She closed her eyes tightly and put on a look of death, "Your Majesty, you can do it." ”

"Do you think I don't dare?" Li Chengqi clenched the blade of the knife, and it really didn't look like he didn't dare.

Jiao Huaiyu, Lingmeiren and the others all held their breath. They wanted to see if their emperor would really slaughter the Eastern Empress.

"Sister is going to die again?" Shen Yan's voice came from inside the hall.

With such a clear and unhurried voice, everyone saw her standing behind Li Chengqi in a gorgeous dress, combed in a high bun, and covered with red veil. She has an outstanding appearance, and her calm and frank spirit overwhelms the crowd.

She walked slowly to Wei Min, followed the words in front of her, and said with a smile: "Last night, in order to get rid of the suspicion that you ruined my phoenix robe and made me embarrassed in front of the courtiers, my sister broke her head, why did you want the emperor to cut a knife on your neck this time?" My sister will die with her will die, why should she give the emperor a charge of killing his wife when she is dying? As she spoke, she reached out to Li Chengqi's hand holding the knife and tried to take the knife from his hand.

When she touched her fingers, Li Chengqi was a little worried, so there was a moment of hesitation. However, seeing her calm expression, he relaxed and let her take the sharp weapon in his hand.

"What are you going to do?" The knife fell into Shen Yan's hand, and Wei Min, who was facing the blade, was a little jealous.

Shen Yan smiled, and suddenly looked like she couldn't hold the knife, and her hand shook, so frightened that Wei Min immediately turned her head. Jiao Huaiyu, who was kneeling beside Wei Min, fell to the side even more crookedly, for fear that the sword would have no eyes and be killed. And when they raised their eyes to look at Shen Yan again, Shen Yan was already holding the knife with both hands.

Shen Yan said: "This knife is really heavy, much heavier than the knife I used to kill Gu Chongzhi, the prime minister of the former dynasty, when the emperor was fighting the country." She smiled again, looked at Wei Min and said, "I almost didn't hold it, and I fell down and injured my sister by mistake." ”

Then, with the knife in both hands, she slowly slashed in the air. And just as the women looked at the blade that reflected the sunlight, she sped up the speed of the gesture and suddenly let out a loud "ah".

"Ah......" Wei Min and Jiao Huaiyu exclaimed in unison, shrinking their bodies back, but they could only hear a "dang long" sound.

It was Shen Yan who threw the knife at Wei Min's side. She said to Wei Min with a smile: "Sister wants to die to make her will, please do it yourself, don't let the emperor bear the name of killing his wife." (To be continued.) )
