Chapter 153: Yellow Sparrow (II)

"Get up and sit down." Finally, it was the emperor who spoke first, and I struggled to stand up with my waist bent, my feet a little weak, and quickly held on to the chair beside me. Not daring to raise my eyes to see the emperor's expression, I sat down in a chair, my wide sleeves in front of me, and secretly rubbed my kneeling numbness. The Emperor remained silent, and the room was suffocatingly silent. I rubbed my knees as I pondered the reason for the Emperor's anger. I didn't say anything, why did you make him angry like this? Looking at him like that, it seems that he is not just angry because I am hiding that his appearance is a human fake, is there any other reason?

Why? I frowned, a little trepidation. Did he be suspicious of me? But how did he become suspicious? Did you learn something from Concubine De? This judgment was immediately overturned. Some time ago, although the assassination of the Ouchi guards was reported to the emperor, it seems that the emperor didn't make any big moves? If those Ouchi guards were really sent by the commander of the guards, he must have known the consequences of assassinating me, and he would definitely arrange this matter well, even if those guards were not killed by the ghostfaces, they might be killed when they returned. If the emperor can't find out that the assassination of me by the Ouchi guards was instigated by Concubine De, he will naturally not interrogate her. Even if she has doubts in her heart, after all, she is a noble concubine who gave birth to an imperial descendant, and an emperor who has no evidence will never punish a concubine who has given birth to a child, right? At most, they will investigate quietly and secretly. And I dare to conclude that Concubine De will not confess anything, although she was implicated by Wei Xiang and sent to the cold palace, but the emperor didn't want her life, if she said that she was pretending to be Wei Lanxue to enter the palace, wouldn't she be dead?

Therefore, the emperor should not know that my body is Azure Snow! But why don't I dare to be sure in my heart? The emperor just has no evidence, it doesn't mean that he doesn't have suspicions, he is so smart, he strings together the things that happened some time ago, such as falling into the water, assassination, etc., I'm afraid that he has long doubted my identity. He must be so angry because he can't do anything about me because he doesn't have evidence, or he wants to force me to admit something, right? The more I thought about it, the more I felt like this, but I calmed down in my heart, as long as I bite to death and don't admit it, the emperor can't do anything about me, after all, my current identity is still the daughter-in-law of the Yun family, and the emperor can't go too far.

"Since this Wei Xiang is fake, where did the real Wei Xiang go?" The emperor didn't speak for a long time, and then he walked away from the silent clouds, I thought he would definitely force a confession from me, but I didn't expect that as soon as I opened my mouth, I asked about this, and my tone became calm, which made me feel a little uncomfortable.

"This ......, how do the concubines know?" I saw that the emperor raised his eyebrows, there was no displeasure, and he hurriedly said, "This Zhou Jingyun can pretend to be Wei Xiang for so long, presumably the real Wei Xiang is already more auspicious." ”

"Really?" The emperor looked at me, his fingers tapped lightly on the coffee table beside him, and the corners of his lips hooked slightly, "Since you asked people to check the bottom of the fake, why don't you check the truth by the way?" ”

"What does this ...... have to do with concubines?" I already know where the truth is, do I need to look it up? It's just that for a family that says that they are loyal to the emperor, it is a bit abnormal to know that such a situation is not investigated. What was the emperor thinking at this moment? I'm afraid that I think that the loyalty of the Yun family is just lip service, it seems that the loyalty shown by the previous days still can't relieve the emperor's suspicion of the Yun family.

"Yes, it has nothing to do with you......" The Emperor smiled mockingly, and fell silent again, not knowing what he was thinking. I was a little apprehensive in my heart, and proposed: "The emperor wants to know where the real Wei Xiang went, why not go and interrogate this Zhou Jingyun?" ”

"Naturally, I will judge him." The emperor said lightly and glanced at me, "Mrs. Ronghua knew Concubine De before?" ”

I was shocked. The emperor was so powerful, I thought he had let go of what happened just now, but I didn't expect to ask some other things casually and then change the conversation and go back again. raised his eyes calmly, with a deliberate hint of surprise in his eyes: "Concubine De? The emperor laughed, what was the identity of the concubine before, how could she know such a famous lady as the concubine? ”

He looked at me fixedly, leaned back lazily, and his eyes were unfathomable: "Mrs. Ronghua, do you still want to deny it?" If you didn't know Concubine De, how could she send someone to assassinate you? ”

My mind "buzzed", and suddenly went blank, could it be that Concubine Dao had recruited her to send someone to assassinate me? Or has the emperor already found out that it was Concubine De who sent someone to assassinate me? That's why he was so angry in the face of my prevarication just now? Then why didn't he just say it directly? Since he knew that it was Concubine De who wanted to kill me, why did he come to ask me why? Wrong......! My heart was excited, and my heart suddenly brightened, and I suddenly realized that he didn't know, he was tricking me!

I had made up my mind in my heart, and when I raised my eyes to look at the emperor, I feigned surprise and said, "What did the emperor say?" You said that the concubine was trying to kill me? ”

"You don't know?" The corners of the Emperor's lips twitched slightly. I pretended not to see it, and said in surprise: "How could the concubine know? The concubine is strange, why did the concubine kill me? Didn't the emperor ask her? ”

The emperor stopped talking, perhaps he didn't know what to say. He didn't lie to me, but he couldn't do it back. The emperor's face was a little gloomy, I thought about it, and tried to find a step for him to go down: "Is the emperor guessing, or is there evidence to prove that it was the concubine Niangniang?" If you have wronged the concubine, isn't it the sin of the concubine? ”

The emperor's eyes were burning, my palms were a little sweaty, knowing that he must be angry at this time, he stared at me for a long time, the sparks in his eyes went down, smiled lightly, and went down the steps I gave: "Mrs. Ronghua is right, Xu is too careful." ”

"The emperor is also thinking about the concubines, and he wants to find out who instructed the inner guards to be unfavorable to the concubines." I slapped it with a sycophant, "The emperor is sympathetic to his courtiers, wise and benevolent, and the concubines are grateful." ”

His face twitched, there was a hint of crying and laughing in his eyes, and after a while, he mocked lightly: "Mrs. Ronghua, should you also give me an explanation for tonight's matter?" ”

What more explanation do you have for tonight's events? Didn't you see it all? Wei Xiang's son wants to rob the prison, I just stopped him, didn't break the law? I looked at him with blank eyes, and said pitifully: "The emperor has seen it, do the concubines still need to explain?" Does the emperor want to cure the sins of his concubines? ”

"Cure your sins?" The emperor looked at me noncommittally, and after a while, he said lazily, "I think you are pregnant, and I will not pursue the mistakes you made today." Just after a certain moment in his heart, he heard the emperor continue, "You go back and think about it behind closed doors, and you are not allowed to go out for three months." ”

"Your Majesty......" I looked at him in astonishment, didn't I say that I wouldn't pursue it? Why do you still let me think about it behind closed doors? The emperor gave me a cold look, and I quickly shut up with my acquaintance: "Thank you for your grace." ”

The emperor continued: "As for Wei Tongfeng, he is bold and has no king's law, and he tries to rob the prison, and he should be punished for his crimes!" ”

"Your Majesty!" I was taken aback, "Although Brother Wei was confused for a while, didn't he rob the prison yet?" How can something that has not yet been done be condemned? ”

"What you don't do is not convicted?" The corners of the emperor's lips pursed coldly, and he sneered, "Where did you get such an idea?" Attempting to rob the prison is already a capital offense, not to mention that he has already taken action, if you hadn't stopped him, do you dare to say that he wouldn't have infiltrated the prison of the Criminal Department? ”

I was speechless, I forgot that I was in a feudal society, not the 21st century, and there was no fait accompli that was not called a crime. But in a country where the monarchy is centralized, everything that hinders the imperial power, even if you just think about it, is guilty. I bit my lip and hurriedly pleaded with the eldest brother of the Wei family: "Your Majesty, eldest brother Wei thought that his father was being imprisoned, but he was just impulsive, so he was confused. The emperor remembered that he was filial, spare him this time! ”

"Spare him?" The emperor looked at me and said coldly, "Can I spare it?" ”

"Why can't you spare him?" I'm really anxious, the emperor didn't look joking at all, "You are the emperor, as long as you open Chrysostom......"

"Mrs. Ronghua had a private meeting with robbers in the middle of the night, and even threatened that Wei Xiang was fake!" The emperor interrupted me suddenly, his eyes narrowed, "What do you think so many officers and soldiers have seen and heard about this matter tonight?" ”

I froze suddenly, understood what the emperor meant, and my body suddenly trembled slightly, and I didn't ....... But I heard the emperor say word by word: "Wei Xiang crippled the party, tried to rob the prison, Mrs. Ronghua met with the robbers privately, and threatened that Wei Xiang was fake, but the emperor spared them, if these things were spread by these officers and soldiers tonight, what would be the consequences?" Have you ever wondered? ”

"It doesn't have to get out......" I argued weakly. The emperor snorted coldly: "There is no impermeable wall in this world, and I will not do those things that are not guaranteed!" ”

"Then the emperor thought...... "The emperor will definitely cover up tonight's events, I feel fear in my heart, and my voice trembles a little. The emperor looked at me with blazing eyes, and said coldly: "If you want me to spare him, then these officers and soldiers will all die tonight!" Do you want him to die alone, or do you want a group of people to die? ”

I felt chills all over my body, huddled limply in my chair, and looked at the man in front of me in horror. At this moment, I really realized the coldness of this man, and only then did I truly realize what it means to be ruthless. All along, even if I knew that I had no chance with the man in front of me and deliberately kept my distance from him, I actually had a fearless mentality towards this man who had touched my heart. It wasn't until this moment that I suddenly realized that I was ridiculously naΓ―ve, Ye Haihua, what you rely on, it is impossible to influence this man in the slightest, why are you fearless? Why do you negotiate terms with people? The moment I understood this fact, my heart suddenly became cold!
