Chapter 41: Escape
After Gao Yan got out of the prison, he went straight to the front hall alone.
Then, soon another person entered the hall, saw Gao Yan, and leaned over to salute: "Xiaguan has seen His Royal Highness King Yan reads;." ”
"Hey, Lord Yue, why do you have to make such a big gift to your son-in-law."
Gao Yan smiled and helped him get up and sit down, but the person in front of him was a little frightened.
The person who came was Song Yuyan's father, Song Lian, a civil official of the third grade of the dynasty.
In the past, although Gao Yangui was the eldest prince, he married the daughter of Song Lian. But the Song family relied on the queen mother and the emperor, but they didn't take this prince in their hearts. I thought that King Yan was weak, and he looked infatuated back then, and his daughter followed him to live a prosperous and stable life. He also accepted a concubine a few years later, and Song Lian learned about it, and then he didn't give him too much good look.
But how could the people of the Song family have thought that the emperor would die under the knife of others at a young age, and it was rumored in the harem that the queen mother lost her son and couldn't afford to be ill. Today's summoning of King Yan must be related to this still empty throne, and Song Lian came with his own heart.
Sure enough, Gao Yan opened his mouth, and said slowly: "Now that something has happened to the emperor, there is a mess inside and outside the palace, I don't know what Lord Song thinks about this?" ”
"The lower officials think that the country cannot be without a king for a day, and it is better to set the throne as soon as possible." Song Lian lowered his head and replied cautiously.
"Yes, it's a pity that now the officials of the court don't know about the chaos, and there is silence. This king is also anxious when he sees it, how can this be good? ”
Gao Yan said as if he glanced at him casually, and Song Lian tightened his heart and thought about how to make a sound.
Hearing him laugh again: "It stands to reason that everyone should see clearly, who should sit on the throne ......" paused, and then said unhurriedly: "Besides, Yu Yan is the wife of this king, and the position of the queen in the future will naturally be hers." ”
"Lord Song," Gao Yan squinted, looking at him with a still pleasant face: "Whether the people of the Song family can continue to sit in the court in the future depends on your hands." When you go back today, don't forget to discuss it with the right minister. This king believes in you and knows how to do it. ”
"Yes, yes, what the prince said today, the lower officials naturally understand."
Song Lian wiped the cold sweat from his palms on his robe, exhaled lightly, and nodded in response.
Gao Yan looked at him, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became thicker.
On the second day, the sun was shining outside, but it was still dark inside the prison. Under the silence, there were suddenly a few chaotic footsteps.
Bai Sang took the people around him and followed Gao Yan with his head down, his face was indifferent, but his steps were faintly a little anxious and flustered.
I never thought I would come here again, the prison was still damp and cold, and the few oil lamps on both sides flickered faintly, as if they would all be extinguished with a light blow.
The smell of turbid rot in the prison seemed so familiar that it almost suffocated her.
The scenes that I tried to escape in the past once again couldn't help but appear in my mind.
Those powerless struggles, desperate voices, images that can't be erased for a lifetime, and the sleeping brother in his arms.
Her hand silently grasped the corner of her skirt beside her, but she still trembled.
The closer the few people got closer, the more a strong smell of blood seemed to permeate the surroundings, and her heart trembled for no reason. The next moment, when he stopped and looked up, he saw Gao Xun with his eyes closed, half-lying on the grass beside him, his robe covered with dried blood.
She turned pale in an instant, and hurriedly ran to the side and squatted down to check left and right, okay, okay, her clothes were still intact.
She looked at Gao Yan with a cold face and hatred, but Gao Yan seemed to smile and said:
"This king only promised you to let her live, but he didn't promise not to let her suffer some flesh and skin."
Bai Sang's hands clenched into fists tightened and tightened, gritted his teeth, turned his head and ignored him, and said to Ye Zi who came from the side:
"Master Ye, after I got out of prison, there was a carriage parked not far from the grove on the side, and there was already a coachman waiting there. You took Ah Xun into the carriage and went all the way out of the city, as far as possible. ”
Ye Ziliang came all the way, and his heart was clear. The whole Jin Palace, even the people who swept the floor were imprisoned, but there was no trace of the Jin princess, and now she appeared here again safe and sound, bringing herself out of prison. Seeing the appearance of her and King Yan again, Ye Ziliang glanced at her with an uncertain expression, and did not answer, but only informed.
Bai Sang's gaze always fell directly on Gao Xun who was lying on the side, she pursed her lips, and couldn't help but speak again: "Also, the injury on her body-"
"The wounds on this body can naturally be healed." Ye Ziliang interrupted her words and paused meaningfully: "As for this heart, I don't know." ”
Ye Ziliang took a step forward, stared at her and said in a deep voice: "What the princess did today, he will not regret it." ”
Bai Sang was stunned when he heard this, and then lowered his head and smiled bitterly.
Regret, how. If you don't regret it, what about it?
For five years, before she appeared, she had a hard time. After she appeared, they didn't know that they looked at her day and night. Laugh with her, make trouble with her, rely on her, and be gentle with her, but the heart is becoming more and more sour and sad day by day.
woke up peacefully, but asked himself over and over again, how can you not report the deep hatred in the sea of blood? How can you live up to the grace of saving your life?
After suffering for so long and indulging in it for so long, it is finally over.
And what is emotion?
After a long time, it will naturally fade away.
Her fingertips trembled slightly, and she gently stroked Gao Xun's face.
Ah Xun, stay away from here, just leave. In the future, whether you want to wear men's clothes or women's clothes, you can live the life you want.
This eye, this eyebrow, will be the last look.
In the past, the quarrel or lingering between the two, the happiness and sadness of Jiangdu.
It's just a cloud of the past, and it will always dissipate little by little.
Her warm smile dyed by the spring breeze, hot as a melting palm, gentle enough to warm the tone of the whole heart.
A shallow smile overflowed from Bai Sang's mouth, and his eyes were lowered, but his hair covered the tears that fell quietly.
It's better not to remember too deeply.
After all, if you say goodbye today, in this life, I am afraid that we will never see each other again.
