199 How I will find you
At this time, Zhu You showed her belief as a top wizard, and said sonorously: "The stronger the life of the object to be measured, the more it can determine its own fate, and the more difficult it is to be measured and seen through." [Ran^Text^Library] v.Om this person's personality is so strong that it should be beyond my divination ability, I don't think I'm accurate. When confronted with this kind of dilemma, I choose to trust my instincts. My instincts tell me that a person with this kind of personality will not die so easily, and I think she is still alive. β
In the eyes of the autumn night strings, a faint gloom flashed.
He put away the jade pendant and the small jade gourd, picked up the portrait and burned it, and then stood up: "I have gone back." β
When he walked out of the Ruoxu Palace, the moon had disappeared, and the sound of drums was faintly heard in the distance.
Autumn Night String walked slowly in the night breeze, and I couldn't tell what mood I was in now.
He walked all the way to the Xianxia Palace.
The gate of Xianxia Palace is closed.
He Yuan hurriedly ran over and knocked on the door: "Is there anyone here?" The emperor is here. β
Soon, footsteps and screams sounded in the Xianxiali Palace, and apparently, someone inside heard Heyuan's voice and was preparing in a hurry.
The gate of Xianxia Palace opened, and just as the palace maids were about to salute, Qiu Yexian strode past them without looking at them.
Ji Lian was sleeping deeply, and suddenly heard that the emperor was coming, so she was so surprised that she immediately got up and ran to the dresser, intending to take care of it temporarily.
Qiu Yexian walked into her bedroom and said to the palace maid, "You all go out." β
Then he closed the door, walked over to the dresser, sat down, and looked at Ji Lian.
Ji Lian covered her cheeks and coquettishly said: "Your Majesty, Lian'er hasn't washed her face yet, she hasn't combed her hair yet, so she doesn't dare to let you look ......at it."
Qiu Yexian was not in the mood to talk to her, and said bluntly: "I have something to ask you, you must tell me the truth." β
Ji Lian had been with him for so long, and seeing that he was not here to make love and spend the night with him, he didn't dare to make any more trouble, so he took his hand away from his face and said cautiously: "No matter what the emperor asks, the concubine will definitely answer truthfully and never hide it." β
"So, I ask you," Qiu Yexian took out the mutton fat white jade pendant and shook it in front of her, "How did you get this jade pendant?" β
He didn't know why, this night, he suddenly wanted to figure out the mysteries of Feng Jinghua's death.
You don't even have to figure it out.
It's like being suppressed for too long, and at some point it completely exploded.
Ji Lian looked at the jade pendant, and after thinking for a while, she remembered that it was taken from her when the emperor had just ascended the throne, and hurriedly said: "This jade pendant seems to be specially ordered by the concubine......
"Don't lie to me." Autumn Nightstring stared at her, without a smile or honey on her face, "I just want to hear the truth." β
His expression and tone made Ji Lian feel frightened.
She felt that the emperor was in a bad mood, and if she said something that displeased the emperor at this time, there would be no good results.
However, can she mention Feng Jinghua's name at such a time?
Qiu Yexian looked at her and didn't say anything, but it had already made Ji Lian feel a huge pressure.
Finally, Ji Lian couldn't resist this pressure, and said in a low voice: "Yes, it was given to me by Feng Jinghua." β
Qiu Yexian's face tensed, and a cold light like a knife flashed in his eyes, but he still didn't say anything, just looked at Ji Lian with a knife-like gaze.
Ji Lian knew that just saying this was not enough, so she said with a weak heart: "On the second day of March last year, I went to Cuilan Mountain to visit Feng Jinghua, and at the door of the annex, she told me that my birthday was coming soon, and she couldn't go back to the city to celebrate for me, so she had to give something as a gift......
She recounted the process of getting this jade pendant in her mouth, but she was screaming in her heart: What happened? Is the emperor investigating Feng Jinghua's matter? Feng Jinghua has been dead for so long, and the emperor has never mentioned Feng Jinghua, why is he forcing her to mention the past now?
After she finished speaking, she carefully looked at the emperor's face, but she couldn't see what the emperor was thinking.
Because she couldn't see anything, she was even more uneasy: "Your Majesty, the concubine didn't lie this time, Qinghe, Concubine He can testify!" At that time, Feng Jinghua also gave her something as a gift. In the past, the concubine said that this jade pendant was bought, because she was worried that mentioning Feng Jinghua's matter would make the emperor uncomfortable, so she would find another excuse. The concubine knows that she is wrong and is willing to accept any punishment, but please believe that the concubine is all for the emperor's sake, but she is too stupid......"
"I'll ask you one more question." Qiu Yexian interrupted her expressionlessly, "Did you send someone to kill Feng Jinghua?" β
"Huh?" Ji Lian screamed in shock, looked at him in shock, and stammered for a while, "How, how is it possible!" Why did the emperor ask like this? β
Could it be that the emperor suspected that she sent someone to kill Feng Jinghua?
Feng Jinghua was killed by someone sent by the emperor, no matter how the emperor is, how should he ask her, what is the emperor thinking?
Or does the emperor want to test her?
Qiu Yexian still asked with an expression and tone that made people unable to see love: "Didn't you hate Feng Jinghua for a long time?" Didn't you want to be a concubine in the palace for a long time? I finally ascended the throne, Feng Jinghua is immortal, how can you enter the palace quickly? β
"......" Ji Lian continued to look at Qiu Yexian in shock, speechless.
Is the emperor really suspicious of her? Obviously, Feng Jinghua was killed by the emperor.
The emperor should be tired of her and want to find a proper reason to abandon her, so he wants to put the charge of killing Feng Jinghua on her head, right?
Although Feng Jinghua is a woman, she has made great contributions to the emperor's accession to the throne, Feng Jinghua is still her good sister, if she is convicted of killing Feng Jinghua, she will not only be ruined, but will also have nothing!
Will the emperor and the emperor be so ruthless? She and the emperor have been in love for more than ten years!
However, Feng Jinghua has done so much for the emperor, and the emperor hasn't killed Feng Jinghua quickly and ruthlessly?
For a while, she was frightened, panicked and afraid, sad, desperate and aggrieved, her expression was unpredictable, her body trembled slightly, and she looked extremely pitiful.
Autumn Nightstring still stared at her indifferently, not knowing whether she was waiting for her to deny it or waiting for her to admit it.
In the end, Ji Lian didn't say anything, just silently shed tears.
Two long lines of tears fell on her clothes, staining one piece.
Autumn Night String still didn't speak.
I don't know how long it took, Ji Lian finally said: "Your Majesty, the concubine didn't kill Feng Jinghua, but the concubine has no evidence to prove the concubine's innocence." If the concubine needs to be responsible for Feng Jinghua's death, then the concubine is willing to bear all the punishments, even if she is sent to the cold palace, even if she has to go to prison, the concubine will admit it. β
If the emperor's purpose is to make her disappear, then she will not resist.
Abandoned by the emperor, she has no point in living, and she has no ability to resist the emperor.
"Well, then, I'll ask you one last thing." Qiu Yexian spoke, "Do you have anything to do with Feng Jinghua's death?" β
Ji Lian shook her head: "It doesn't matter. β
She thought it was all over, but Qiu Yexian said, "Okay, I believe you." β
Then Qiu Yexian stood up: "You have a good rest, I go back." β
Ji Lian was completely stunned again.
She looked at the back of Qiu Yexian walking out in a daze, just, this is the end?
The emperor came over just to ask these questions? What is the emperor going to do? And she, is she really safe?
After Qiu Yexian walked out of Xianxia Palace, he said: "Swing, I want to go to the Lotus Garden." β
He had already prepared a sedan chair and kept it in the back for backup.
After the emperor gave the order, the sedan chair immediately rushed over, carrying the emperor, and went straight to the lotus garden.
This is the first time that the emperor has visited the Lotus Garden.
Although Concubine He was the first woman to inherit Long En's favor and the first woman to be crowned a concubine, she never slept for the second time.
Everyone thought that the emperor had forgotten about her save.
Qinghe thinks so too.
When she tossed and turned because of the long night, she suddenly heard the emperor coming and asked her to pick up the driver at the door, she was so surprised that she ran out barefoot and knelt in front of the door: "The concubine greets the emperor, long live the emperor, long live long liveβ"
The emperor hasn't forgotten about her! The emperor is really affectionate towards her! After she stayed up for so long, the moment to turn over finally came!
"I'm just going to ask you one thing." Autumn Night String had already let everyone go away, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he asked, "How did you get this thing?" β
Qinghe looked up, and the emperor did not come out of the sedan chair, but just stretched out a hand from the sedan chair, holding a jade gourd in his hand.
She recognized at a glance the trinket, which had changed her fate, and immediately said, "I bought it from the street......"
"I'll give you one last chance!" The voice that came from the sedan chair was as cold as winter frost and snow, "How did you get this thing?" If you dare to lie to me, I will kill you immediately! β
Qinghe was paralyzed on the spot.
The emperor came to see her, only, just, just to ask about this kind of thing?
Why is the emperor's tone so cold and terrifying?
Her tears and snot flowed down together, and she cried: "This, this is the ...... that Miss Feng gave to slaves and slaves."
Because she was frightened, she forgot that she was a concubine, and only remembered when she was a slave.
In fact, she has never been treated as a concubine in this palace, no one respects her, no one attaches importance to her, no one pays attention to her, and her life for more than a year is not as good as when she was a maid.
The voice in the sedan chair said coldly: "Explain it in detail." Not a single detail should be missed. β
Qinghe didn't know what to say about Feng Jinghua giving her a small thing, but she still told everything she remembered at that time, including the conversation between the three of them, the clothes of the three people, etc., all of them.
Before she finished speaking, the emperor stretched out his hand from the sedan chair and waved it, and the eunuchs and guards hurriedly ran over when they saw this, carried the sedan chair and left, leaving her behind.
Qinghe was barefoot, kneeling on the ground, watching the sedan chair drift away, and his eyes couldn't flow out.
Emperor...... Didn't even look at her.
In the past year, she has been bullied and lonely, and the emperor is her only hope and comfort, but the emperor doesn't even look at her.
She has lost so much weight, her eyes are full of sadness, and her face is full of tears, but the emperor doesn't know, and the emperor won't care.
She thought she had gone to heaven, but was she actually in hell?
In the sedan chair, Qiu Yexian closed his eyes: he didn't kill Feng Jinghua, Ji Lian didn't kill Feng Jinghua, no one else knew that Feng Jinghua was in Cuilan Mountain, it was Feng Jinghua who gave Ji Lian and Qinghe the love token he gave her.
Why did Feng Jinghua do this? It's like, it's like saying goodbye to him, not loving him anymore, wanting him anymore......
His heart ached suddenly.
If you die, where will you die? If you are alive, where are you? How do I find you?
