Gu Yunjin returned to the Splendid Garden, sat quietly and thought for a long time, and then picked up the pen to write a letter to Dai Jinchao, wanting to ask him what he was going to do and why he suddenly asked to marry her.

But after the letter was sent, she didn't receive a reply until nightfall, and she knew that Dai Jinchao would not answer her in a short time, and she didn't ask any more questions.

This night, Gu Yunjin tossed and turned on the couch and couldn't sleep for a long time.

And the same sleepless as her is Zhao Ziheng in Changle Palace.

When Zhao Ziheng learned that his father was going to marry Gu Yunjin and Dai Jinchao tomorrow, his heart hurt so much that he was dripping blood, and he rushed to the imperial study to argue with Emperor Zhao. Emperor Zhao was annoyed and angry, and scolded him for a while, ignoring his pleadings.

Zhao Ziheng was disheartened and no longer pinned his hopes on him.

The night was dark, and a black shadow rose and fell, fell into the Changle Palace, and soon entered Zhao Ziheng's bedroom.

Qing'er, a girl in Tsing Yi who had been guarding outside the palace, saw this scene, quietly withdrew, and hurriedly went to Queen Li's bedroom.

When Empress Li got the news, she hurried over, saw the man in black who was about to leave outside the door, and shouted: "Stop." Then he coldly ordered the guards: "Come, arrest this person." ”

As soon as the man in black saw that the matter was revealed, he didn't wait for the guards to step forward, and several hidden weapons shot out, and the guards immediately screamed, and the man in black took the opportunity to flee.

Zhao Ziheng heard the voice in the hall, his face changed greatly, and he hurriedly walked out to check the situation.

He was a little timid in his heart, and couldn't help but take two steps back. His voice trembled slightly, and he cried out, "Mother...... Queen mother. ”

'Smack! Empress Li approached him step by step, and suddenly reached out and slapped him in the face.

From childhood to adulthood, Zhao Ziheng He has been slapped in the face. What's more, it was the queen mother who doted on him the most to shoot at him. He was blinded by this blow, and covered his burning cheeks in disbelief and said, "Queen Mother, you ...... You can't bear to hit a child. ”

Queen Li gradually had tears in her eyes, hitting her son's body, and the pain was in her mother's heart! She cried out bitterly: "You are my favorite son, how can I bear it? But you really disappointed me, do you want me to be buried with you in this Changle Palace? ”

Hear this. Zhao Ziheng hurriedly knelt on the ground, a bad premonition rose in his heart, but there was still a trace of luck. And instinctively struggled to resist, "The child doesn't understand what the queen mother says." ”

Empress Li saw that he was obsessed, and her heart ached unbearably, "You want to repeat the old trick." Assassinate the prince of Nanling in order to take back Yunjin, right. Do you think you can hide what you have done from your father and me? ”

Zhao Ziheng's heart was shocked, his face was pale, his straight body was softened, and he asked with trembling lips: "Father, he ...... He already knows? ”

"Your father has suspicions now, but there is no definite evidence. If you continue like this, he will surely find that by then, will you still be able to hold the crown prince? The identity of the prince of Nanling is different from that of Princess Yunli and Prince Long. If something happens to him, will the prince and princess of Nanling give up? There is also the Queen Mother. He is very partial to the son, and this is her old man's personal marriage, and he will definitely investigate it to the end when the time comes. For the sake of a woman, you don't care about your future, your life, and your responsibilities, what else do you have in your eyes besides her! ”

Zhao Ziheng had tears in his eyes and shouted hatefully: "If he hadn't worn a horizontal knife to snatch love, Yunjin would have been mine, why would he compete with the child?" There is also his father, the king has no jokes, he has obviously promised the children, but he still agreed to marry them, and he didn't worry about the children at all. ”

Empress Li couldn't help but tremble with anger, and pointed at him and reprimanded him sharply, "Your father has high hopes for you, so he doesn't want you to mislead the country for a woman. ”

"No, queen mother, as long as the child marries Yunjin, the child will have nothing else to ask for, the child will ask for this one request."

Empress Li saw that it was useless to beat and scold, so she had to persuade her bitterly instead: "Although Yunjin is good, such a woman is not suitable for you after all. The palace can't have a special favorite, otherwise it will cause a catastrophe sooner or later, and General Gu doesn't want her to enter the palace to live a palace life. Ziheng, you are the prince of a country, the future emperor, how many women do you want, why do you just hold on to her. You should know that if it weren't for Concubine Yu's unintentional posteriority, would we still be able to live in this Changle Palace? Do you want to let the queen mother's years of hard work go to waste? ”

persuaded him, but Zhao Ziheng didn't listen much, as if he had gone mad, and there was only one thought in his heart, that is, before the holy decree was issued tomorrow, kill Dai Jinchao and hold the hatred of taking his wife! He would rather lose both than let go.

Knowing her son Mo Ruo's mother, Empress Li looked at the fierceness in his bloodshot eyes and his clenched fists, and knew that he did not let go of his intention to kill Dai Jinchao in his heart, and she gave an ultimatum bitterly: "Ziheng, if you want to see the queen mother crash to death on the stone pillar of Changle Palace, do what you want, and the queen mother can say it." With that, he turned and left.

Zhao Ziheng's body was instantly paralyzed, and all the strength in his body seemed to be hollowed out, sitting on the ground softly, tears finally surging out, looking at Queen Li's figure and muttering: "Queen Mother, why are you persecuting the child so much?" ”

Queen Li's body stiffened, looked up at the top, held back her tears, but still didn't look back, and continued to walk out with difficulty: Ziheng, the queen mother doesn't want to repeat the mistakes of the past and let herself regret it, just because the queen mother was soft-hearted for a while, she made a big mistake, one wrong step, and there will be no return!

After Empress Li left, the palace maids who were waiting in the dormitory dared to come in.

Everyone saw Zhao Ziheng sitting motionless on the ground as if he had lost his soul, and hurriedly stepped forward to help, "Prince, the ground is cold, get up quickly." ”

"Who is it that reported to the queen?"

The cold voice like a hellish ghost made all the palace maids tremble, and they didn't dare to squeak. Especially Qing'er, her whole body couldn't stop trembling.

"Who is it that reported to the queen?"

Still no one dared to respond.

"Who is it that reported to the queen?"

When the third sound sounded, Qing'er finally couldn't hold on anymore, fell to her knees with a 'plop', kowtowed heavily to admit her mistake, and said with chattering teeth: "Back to the prince, is it...... It was the queen who was afraid that the prince would cause a big disaster, so she asked the slave to secretly monitor the prince's actions, and the slave knew that she was wrong, and the slave and maid ......"

"Kill." Before she finished speaking, Zhao Ziheng spit out a word, his voice was very soft, but it was extremely frightening to hear in everyone's ears.

"Prince." Qing'er screamed, suddenly crawled forward, grabbed his robe and begged: "Prince, the slave knows that it is wrong, begging the prince to let the slave and maid go once, the slave and the maid will never dare again." (To be continued.) )
