Chapter 257: Threatening to be a hostage
"Because...... Because ......"
"If you don't say it now, I really can't help you. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info"I try to keep my voice low so that I don't let my mouth move too clearly when I speak, so that the person in front of me doesn't notice something.
"Because of you."
Mrs. Li, who had been hesitating just now, suddenly relented, her voice sounded a little hairy, as if she had gritted her teeth and squeezed out of between her teeth, perhaps facing the situation in front of her that she could not escape, so she had to be ruthless.
"What?" I tried to listen, trying to hear clearly, for fear that I would miss a word.
"Because of you." She repeated again, "I overheard that Your Majesty was with a warlock, and they talked about you, and Your Majesty made that warlock put a spell on you, making you unconscious, and Your Majesty wanted to control you......"
"Control me?" I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, Mrs. Li's statement invisibly confirmed Jiang Yan's words, my illness was not an accident, even if I changed from a demon to a human, I would not be weak and faint at every turn.
"Back to the words of the two ladies." Xu Rui couldn't hear me and Mrs. Li talking quietly at all, he hesitated for a long time, until a palace man squeezed behind him whispered something in his ear, and he said to us, "The palace people who mixed into Mrs. Li's palace to deliver food have been caught, it is the personal maid next to the late Queen Meng, she did not admit the poisoning at first, until the guards outside the palace recognized her, she did not admit it, and according to her, the reason why she mixed into Mrs. Li's palace and poisoned Mrs. Li's food was just to avenge Queen Meng." ”
The girl next to Queen Meng? I remembered the girl, who was standing by her coffin when I went to pay my respects to Queen Meng, and told me that Queen Meng was found dead after Madame Li was gone.
If it were her, then after Queen Meng's death, she might have been reassigned to serve in other palaces in this palace, mixed into Madame Li's palace, poisoned Madame Li's food, and avenged Queen Meng, because she may have felt doubts from my questioning at that time, and she also realized that it was Madame Li who killed Queen Meng.
"Do you think you have control over Your Majesty? It's ridiculous, in fact, His Majesty has cast a spell on you, he wants to leave you dead end, because he knows that you care about the second son, so he will do whatever it takes to keep you by his side. Even if it puts you in a coma, keep you as a shell. Madame Li was still behind me and said, "I am afraid of falling out of favor, so I want to go to His Majesty in the afternoon that day to ask for some benefits." I slipped over, but I didn't expect to hear him talking to the warlock whose surname Gong didn't know what his surname was. ”
"Palace?!" It dawned on me, Gong Hui?!
I thought I couldn't find this person, but I didn't expect him to appear, and he appeared so unexpectedly, at such a time, I couldn't be happy at all when I heard the surname Gong. This person, who had been looking for too long, did not expect to appear at this time.
Ten years ago, I mentioned to Yuan Hyuk that he still has a relative in this world for him to look for. I thought that this person had disappeared in the vast sea of people, but something even more unexpected happened to me, this person appeared. It turned out that after the instructions of the year, Won Hyuk had indeed been looking for this person, and he finally let him find it. It's a pity that Yuan He is looking for him, not only because Gong Hui is his only relative in this world, but also because of Gong Hui's powerful spiritual power, Yuan He, like Yuan Jue, is also eager to get supreme power with the help of abilities different from ordinary people.
Just like at that time, he knew that Jialan was not human, but he still let Jialan stay under him to do things for him, even later, after Jialan revealed that Mrs. Qimo was the real culprit behind the scenes, she became Yuanhe's Mrs. Lan, but it was nothing more than a change of identity and continued to work for Yuanhe with unusual skills.
"Let her go!" Just when I was distracted, Yuan Hyuk still came, and after seeing this scene, Father-in-law Su, who was following him, immediately shivered, and Yuan Hyuk pointed at Mrs. Li, who was holding me hostage, and reprimanded.
Mrs. Li saw Won Hyuk, she was even more nervous, her hands were a little trembling, and the clenched hairpin rubbed against my neck again and again, exerting force on the scar, the pain was a little deeper, I frowned, the pain was no longer easy to ignore.
The anger in Wonhyuk's eyes became stronger and stronger, and the anger became heavier and heavier, he narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Mrs. Li, staring closely at Mrs. Li's hairpin against my neck, the danger exuded by those eyes was the most eyesight I had seen in my years of living in the mountains and forests.
Yuan He never thought that because of the girl beside Queen Meng, such a little accident would make Mrs. Li frightened, and she ran out of the palace empty. He may be worried, Mrs. Li may have said something to me, even if I want to ask about it now, I know that it is not the most suitable situation, if Yuan Hyuk knows that Mrs. Li has told me those things, I am afraid that at this time, he will definitely kill Mrs. Li.
"Is it true?" I whispered to Mrs. Leigh to see if what she had just told me was true.
"You don't believe me?" Mrs. Li's answer is clearly the most powerful certainty.
"Let's leave the palace." I whispered to her, trying to keep my mouth still so that no one could see anything, "You tell them that you want a carriage, and then you take me hostage and get into the carriage, and when you leave the palace, we will go directly out of Mucheng." Yuan Jue's garrison is just outside the city, and if you can get there, you may still have a chance to live. ”
Mrs. Li thought for a moment, and then shouted at Won Hyuk, "I'm going out of the palace and preparing a car for me!" When I get to a safe place, I will naturally release Mrs. Zhaohua and prepare a car for me! ”
"You, you, you...... Mrs. Li, you quickly let Mrs. Zhaohua go. "Father-in-law Su is on the side to help.
Yuan Hyuk looked at me, he raised his hand to signal Grandpa Su to shut up, and then casually ordered, "Prepare the car." ”
"Your Majesty!" Gonggong Su was startled and looked at Yuan He, thinking that he was crazy.
"Let you prepare the car!" Won Hyuk drank, "Didn't you see it?" Mrs. Zhaohua was in her hands, preparing the car. ”
Father-in-law Su stomped his feet helplessly, and hurriedly ran down to prepare for the car. At present, the situation is becoming more and more tense, surrounded by the forbidden army in the palace, surrounded by a certain distance, and I dare not approach, for fear of irritating Mrs. Li and then hurting me.
"Mrs. Li, since the real culprit of poisoning in the palace has been punished, why don't you let Mrs. Zhaohua go. Now it has been confirmed that the poisoning was a private act of the palace people and had nothing to do with other people. Xu Rui said.
"Mrs. Li, please don't hurt my wife." Xia Zhen pleaded, his eyes kept staring at the hairpin on my neck.
Gonggong Su had already returned to Yuan He's side at this time, and what he said beside Yuan He, Yuan He straightened up and said, "The carriage is ready, Gu assures you, you let go of Mrs. Zhaohua now, Gu can not hold you accountable for any crimes, and you can leave Yu Palace now." ”
Won Hyuk's assurance, Mrs. Li, who was holding me hostage, shook again, and I could feel it from her trembling hands, she wanted to believe Won Hyuk because she wanted to live. Since Yuan He promised it in front of so many people, he probably should have counted it.
She was holding my hands in a sign of relaxation.
I looked at Won Hyuk, the person I should have been very familiar with, and I remembered that when I came down the mountain ten years later, everyone seemed to tell me, consciously or unconsciously, that Won Hyuk had changed, became unscrupulous, and became insidious and vicious. It's just that I was a little shaken at first, thinking that what they said was true, until I returned to the palace because of Yunchu's incident, and I saw Won Hyuk, and the way he saw me, made me feel that he hadn't changed, even if he hadn't changed in the past ten years, or that he had just changed for other people, but for me, he was still the same conceited and pessimistic young man Won Hyuk.
But what happened, when I looked at him like this today, I felt that we had all changed.
"Do you believe him? As long as you let go of me now, you won't get to the carriage and you'll die. I lowered my head, avoided Wonhyuk's gaze, and whispered.
With just this sentence, Mrs. Li, who had just been shaken, immediately woke up, strangled me, and pressed a hairpin against my neck, so desperate that she finally chose to break the boat, she shouted at Yuan He, "I don't believe it, when I get out of the city and are safe, I will let her go." Now, get all the guards back! Stand back all! ”
Supervisor Xu Rui and the others were about to take advantage of the time to ambush Mrs. Li, but Yuan Hyuk glanced over and signaled them not to move. "Stand back."
The forbidden army in the palace began to get out of the way little by little, and Madame Li grabbed me and forced everyone to move forward.
"Don't hurt her." Won Hyuk let out a warning voice, and his eyes never took off her hairpin against my neck.
One step, one step...... The carriage was ahead, and Madame Leich was scrambling to keep an eye on everything around her, holding me hostage in the direction of the carriage. Descending the steps, Mrs. Li's attention was all on the guards around her, so her body shook and she almost fell.
I saw that she might fall backwards, and with her hairpin against my neck, I leaned in her direction, and secretly pulled her back. It's just that this almost gave the surrounding guards a chance to take advantage of but missed the opportunity, which made others sigh.
"You get in the car first, and then you stand against me, and I cooperate with you to get in the car." I saw that the carriage was getting closer and closer, and Mrs. Li was a little anxious, so I whispered a word, lest she should have a mistake at the last moment.
Although Mrs. Li did not answer me, she did so, and she carried me hostage and slowly moved towards the carriage, and I was in the spotlight of everyone, and seemed to be held hostage by her, and quietly cooperated with her to rub into the carriage.
But in such an instant, as I was partially hidden in front of the carriage, an arrow slashed my shoulder and stabbed me behind me.
By the time I reacted, the hairpin against my neck had slowly slid down.
Mrs. Leigh fell straight into the carriage, and I turned around to see the feathered arrow piercing her chest, a red patch. I was about to try to see if she might be alive when I was pushed away by a group of people who suddenly rushed up, their weapons pointed at Mrs. Leigh, who was lying motionless in the car. Won Hyuk pulled me over, but I couldn't break free several times, and I could only watch Mrs. Li fall there.
"It's okay." Won Hyuk leaned over and whispered in my ear.
I was startled, instinctively dodged a little, and I looked back at him, thinking that I was almost going to get out of here. But now that Mrs. Li is dead, the woman who thought that she could change her fate by being pregnant with the monarch and the prince of the country, just like that, buried her life here.
And the man in front of me, I don't know how much else he is hiding from me, I didn't expect that it wasn't just me who had secrets, and now Won Hyuk made me feel scared, very scared. I used to think that the person I knew was not like this at all, just like Mrs. Li told me, I thought I controlled him, but I didn't expect that I was just controlled by him.
Madame Li's death, the people in this palace ...... Less and less.
Won Hyuk was stunned by my dodge. His expression, which had softened a little, looked more profound, and I turned my head to avoid his eyes, and now I was unable to balance my mind, and I was afraid that he would see my strangeness.
……
"Ma'am, you're alright." When Xia Zhen came over, he startled me again, looking at my startled appearance, Xia Zhen comforted me softly, "Are you still worried about what happened last night?" Madam, why don't you let the Imperial Doctor take a look. ”
I shook my head, desperately shaking my head, "Don't." ”
"Madame......" Xia Zhen saw my reaction and became even more anxious.
"I'm going to get people ready to walk, I want to go out and breathe." I say.
I haven't closed my eyes since last night, but I feel that as soon as I close my eyes, I see what Mrs. Liz looked like when she died, so I didn't dare to sleep. Queen Meng is dead, Lady Lan is dead, and Lady Li is dead...... I don't know what kind of gossip should be circulating in this palace this morning. It's just that I really don't care about all this, after Yuan Hyuk sent me back to the dormitory last night, there was a news in the front hall that the minister entered the palace at night to meet him, and he went.
"Madame, where do you want to go?" Xia Zhen asked.
I came out of my chaotic thoughts and looked at her, indeed, where are you going? In and outside the palace, I don't even have a place to go, and when such a big thing happens, I don't even have anyone to talk to, and I thought for a long time, "I want to go to Luoxiang Mountain for a walk." ”
Xia Zhen thought about it for a while, and agreed, probably because he didn't think there was any problem, so he walked outside the hall and told the palace people. After a while, the chariot was ready, and Xia Zhen came back to help me get up, put on my coat, and walked outside the hall to sit on the chariot.
We walked in the direction of Luoxiang Mountain, but happened to pass by the place where the carriage had an accident last night, I couldn't resist the urge in my heart to look over, only to see that there was still a bright red mark on the ground, which was the blood that flowed out of the carriage last night.
I twitched and grabbed at the side.
"Ma'am, it's all right." Xia Zhen was worried about my condition, and I could only shake my head. (To be continued.) )
