256.Chapter 256: The Source of Nightmares

Before the feast, Princess Dangli had already met the saint under the guidance of the inner 'servant'.

When Princess Dangli and King Qi look very similar, the sage is in a 'excited' and 'swinging' mood today, and when he saw Princess Dangli, the first sentence was: "I just took a special look at Shou'er, and it is not at all like your sister and brother." ”

Just such a sentence made Princess Dangli's tears almost flow.

The Shou'er in the mouth of the saint is the only son of the King of Qi, and his name is Qin Lu.

King Qi's body seems to be healthy, but his foundation is a little poor, and his heirs are a little difficult. He can see it, and he doesn't accept a few more concubines, but Princess Qi is so anxious that she doesn't know how many bitter soup 'medicines' she has poured and how many home remedies she has found. It was easy to get a son, the family was not happy for two years, King Qi was ill, and when he was dying, he told the princess that it was a great blessing for his son to be born in the royal family, and as a father, he hoped that his only son Fulu would have a long life, so he had such a name.

In view of the fact that Qin Kun, the eldest son of the acting king, passed away unclearly, the sage did not dare to be too good to the only son of the king, and even kept pressing his title. Coupled with Qin Lu Xiao's mother, it is difficult to find the shadow of King Qi in terms of appearance, temperament and words and deeds, not to mention inheriting the amazing talent of King Qi, the saint was disappointed, and gradually reduced his attention to this grandson.

"Shou'er is a good boy." When Princess Li knew that it was not good to mention her dead brother on the day of great joy, she said, "Baonu has a bad reputation, and the elder brother of the in-law still has some hatred for iron and steel, but Shou'er is as good as ever for Baonu." ”

Although Sui Yuan is a little unscrupulous and unsuccessful, he is a pure child, and the sage also likes this silly boy very much, hearing that Qin Lu can not be affected by the rumors and rumors of the outside world, and his attitude towards Sui Yuan has not changed in the slightest, which is rare among his peers. If it is not extraordinary wisdom, it is loyal to the 'nature', and either is a good quality.

The saint sighed, a little melancholy: "This is like enough Cheng'er, I remember, Cheng'er is very good to his younger brothers, at first everyone thought he was winning people's hearts, and later I realized that this was his original heart, and it was consistent." ”

When Princess Li's heart suddenly burst into guessing what the saint was going to ask, at this moment, her heart was beating faster than ever, and the anger and hatred that had been suppressed for twenty years burst out almost uncontrollably, but when she thought of her sons, she was a little undecided, but her mouth echoed the saint: "Cheng'er never cares about other people's malicious speculation, he is so above board, I ......" So, although it is a brother and sister, he is three or four years younger than me, but I tell him everything, he will do whatever he asks me to do."

Recalling the past, Princess Dangli's eyes have a light in her eyes.

That was more than 20 years ago.

At that time, the lord of Chen Liujun had already married into the Gao family of the Duke of Shenguo, and she also married into the Sui family of the Duke of Peiguo, but the circumstances were very different. When Queen Mu saw this, she was already a little unhappy, but Gao Heng spit out the truth after drinking, saying that he worked hard when he was campaigning, just because he was slightly younger than the county lord of Chen Liu, thinking that the saint would make him a princess, who expected to be given a marriage to the county lord Chen Liu?

When the sage heard this, he was furious, and Queen Mu was also furious—Lord Chen Liujun was not only her adopted 'daughter', but also her nephew's 'daughter' from the Mu family. Before the birth of Prince Huaixian, only the lord of Chen Liujun was on his knees and comforted Queen Mu's desolation and loneliness, but now he has suffered such grievances? Queen Mu didn't say a word, but found an excuse to admonish Princess Dangli in front of the harem concubines and princesses, so that she would abide by the 'woman' virtue, be chaste and virtuous, and be a role model for the royal family.

Princess Dangli only felt that her face was hot, but she could only bear it.

Queen Mu is her mother-in-law, and she is the favorite of the saint, the harem concubines and princesses, all of whom are begging for a living under her. The sage already regarded his niece and daughter as heavier than his own daughter, and Lord Chen Liujun suffered such a grievance, and he had a slight relationship with Princess Dangli, although Princess Dangli had never seen Gao Heng at all. If you complain to the saint about this, you will definitely not be pleased. Not to mention that Concubine Xuanxian's body is already a little poor, and she eats more 'medicine' than she eats, Princess Dangli doesn't want to bother her mother with these trivial things, but she is very aggrieved, so she sent all the palace 'women' and inner 'waiters', and walked around the palace at will by herself, and she was right to relax.

She was upset, and before she knew it, she was going further and further away, and suddenly came back to her senses, and she didn't know where she was. However, the palace 'women' saw that she was irritable, and they didn't dare to really offend this favored princess, so they followed her not far away, but they lost her.

When Princess Li lost her way in the remote palace with wrong roads, she turned around like a fly for a long time, but she couldn't even find a passing palace 'maid' and 'attendant'. Then I suddenly heard the mournful cry of the animal—the sound was so terrible that Princess Dangli froze in place, trembling, and finally had the strength to move her steps, and wanted to leave quickly, but the sorrowful cry gradually became quieter, and only whimpered.

For a while, Princess Dangli didn't know where she got the courage, so she took off all the hairpin ring accessories, wrapped them in a handkerchief, put them in her arms, and tiptoed to the place where the sound came from.

She remembered that voice - Duke Wucheng often 'got' some gadgets from the Western Regions to give to his sister Queen Mu, among them there was a pair of eyes like glass, the body was only the size of a palm, the 'hair' and 'color' were pure white as snow, and the gentle and cute puppy was called Xue Liuli, and Princess Dangli was very greedy. Later, Xue Liuli gave birth to three cubs, Queen Mu gave one to the lord of Chen Liu, and gave one back to the Mu family, but the other was the king of Qi in the court to show 'color', and won the sage's commendation, when the sage asked him what he wanted, he asked the sage for it.

When Princess Li was still a younger brother for herself, she was full of joy, waiting left and right, but she didn't wait for a gift, and she killed the palace of King Qi, who expected that King Qi said with a sincere face that the snow glaze was for King Wei.

Seeing that her sister was so angry, King Qi also persuaded Princess Dangli, saying that you are the eldest princess, favored by the saint, and the mother concubine is one of the three ladies, and my younger brother is here, do you want any good things. King Wei's life is much more difficult than yours, obviously he is a prince, and there is nothing else except for the part, he doesn't dare to show anything he likes, and he shrinks at the end on weekdays, silently. It's rare that he likes something so much that he can see it, and as an elder brother, I naturally have to find a way to make him happier, so as not to look back on it in the future, the time of my youth was a 'gloom' haze, and there was no trace of warmth.

Although Princess Li knew that her brother was such a 'sex', she still sulked for a long time, and she became more and more obsessed with Xue Liuli, and now she heard Xue Liuli's voice in such a remote place, even if she knew that the situation was not right, she had to go and see, if she found something wrong, it was better than finding the 'door'.

She didn't expect that just because of such a thought, it became a nightmare for half her life - the less than ten years old King Wei's hands, face, and body were covered with blood, and he used a dagger to slash at Xue Liuli's body, each knife brought out dripping blood and even broken internal organs, Xue Liuli's clear eyes like glass had been gouged out, and his limbs were scattered, and he had long been out of breath.

When Princess Li froze there in fright, she didn't dare to breathe, and watched the plain and silent King Wei abuse poor Xue Liuli, who was obviously a child who was less than ten years old, but his face was so cruel and hideous. After doing this, he neatly took off his bloodstained clothes, wiped them on his face, wiped the blood stains, and threw it into the well next to him, along with the sheath of the dagger.

After the King of Wei left, Princess Dangli was still too frightened to move, but when she saw that he had come back not long after, she took a closer look, and after making sure that there was no one around, she left contentedly.

I don't know how long it took, when Princess Li got up hand and foot, she hurriedly left the palace, ran to the palace of King Qi, pulled King Qi's sleeve, and trembled: "Ah Cheng, I, I saw - I-"

"Sister?" King Qi still didn't understand what was going on, and when he heard Princess Dangli explain what had happened incoherently, his expression darkened, and he patted her back lightly, and comforted her softly, "Don't be afraid, sister, you sue me, was there a third person present at that time?" ”

"No, no, only I saw it, I didn't dare to move, for fear that he would find me and kill me." When Princess Li couldn't control her feelings anymore, she hugged her brother tightly and repeatedly asked her brother to make a guarantee, "Ah Cheng, I'm afraid!" He's not a human, he's a demon who has climbed up from hell, so don't come near him anymore, okay? ”

The king of Qi responded and told Princess Dangli not to 'show' her strange 'color', and within a few days, the news of Xue Liuli's brutal torture and murder came out. Because King Han was red in the snow glass several times, he failed to take it by force, and the clothes and scabbards found in the well belonged to King Han, so the matter was punished by King Han, and the reputation of tyranny gradually spread, and King Wei was compensated, and by the way, it was brought into the eyes of Queen Mu.

After many years, recalling that scene again, Princess Dangli was no longer as afraid as before, but was extremely angry - she already understood that the reason why King Wei tortured and killed Xue Liuli was only because he couldn't kill King Qi.

Sounds ridiculous, doesn't it? King Qi is obviously the only person in the huge court who is unconditionally good to King Wei, but King Wei hates King Qi the most, and hates the gift given to him by King Qi, and he has to use the most cruel means to destroy it to relieve his hatred.

Every time she thought of this, Princess Dangli hated her teeth - King Qi didn't ask King Wei for anything, he just wanted his younger brothers to be happy, but it touched King Wei's sensitive and inferior heart. King Wei couldn't see the good of King Qi at all, and thought that King Qi was hypocritical, and used himself to earn the reputation of being a gentle, virtuous, and friendly brother, so he hated King Qi to the core. Don't look in the mirror to see, which onion and garlic are you Qin Yin, if the King of Qi is still alive, from the saint to the civil and military officials, he will not look at you, can he use a lot of trouble to win you over?

It's just that...... Princess Dangli hesitated again.

After so many years, if there is no evidence, the saint may not believe it, and even if he does, he may not be able to find a more capable heir than King Wei at the moment. Not to mention his two sons, one of them completely stood in line, and the other also had some tendencies......
