Chapter 26: Interrogation

"Your Majesty, the concubines have never forgotten their identity, and they dare not forget it, if there is anything wrong, please punish the emperor." Chu Xiangwan knelt down and pleaded guilty.

"It's begging for punishment again, what's the matter, Chu Xiangwan, can't you show a little sincerity? What I want is not a concubine who will only be submissive, but a woman who truly and truly loves me. Arise, and I will not see you like this. Huangfu Jingwen hated Chu Xiangwan's well-behaved and submissive at this time, because in his opinion, all this was proof of unlove.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, it's all about the concubines. However, if you are really drunk, you should go back to the Min Xun Hall and rest early. ”

"What if I said I was going to rest here tonight? You are my concubine, isn't it natural to take care of me? "Huangfu Jingwen wants to do something tonight, something that he has been waiting for for a long time.

"Your Majesty, concubine-" Chu Xiangwan didn't know what words to refuse, after all, as an imperial concubine, she had not had a round house after three years of marriage, which was really unreasonable. However, she couldn't let go of Huangfu Jingyao in her heart at all, so how could she sleep with another man?

"Why, I have to listen to you personally, who made you reject me again and again?" Huangfu Jingyao could no longer endure this refusal.

"Your Majesty, you don't understand what you said about the concubines."

"Okay, if you don't understand, then I'll tell you today. You see what this is? Huangfu Jingwen took out the scarf embroidered with plum blossoms from his body.

The moment she saw the scarf, Chu Xiangwan felt a very bad feeling in her heart, but she pretended to be okay and asked, "Where did the emperor get this scarf?" ”

Huangfu Jingwen rushed to the wardrobe and began to rummage through the cabinets.

"Your Majesty, what are you going to do?" Chu Xiangwan pulled Huangfu Jingwen's arm, trying to stop his crazy movements.

But it was already late, and Huangfu Jingwen pulled out several identical scarves from the cabinet. He asked, red-eyed, "It's yours." ”

"Maybe I lost it somewhere." Chu Xiangwan had already guessed the origin of this scarf. The plum blossoms in the corner of the scarf have faded a little, and this scarf must have been collected for a long time.

"Are you a fool? I ask you, how did this scarf end up in Huangfu Jingyao's hand? ”

"What, the emperor is suspicious of his concubines and King Rui again?" Chu Xiangwan remembered that he had used a scarf to bandage Huangfu Jingyao's wounds at that time, and he must have kept it until now, but how this scarf got into Huangfu Jingwen's hand is unknown, the only thing that is certain is that Huangfu Jingwen really already knew about her relationship with Huangfu Jingyao.

"Suspicious? I really hope this is really just my suspicion, Chu Xiangwan, I am sincere to you in vain, and I have been waiting for you to respond to my same sincerity, it turns out that I am the biggest fool in this world. After speaking, Huangfu Jingwen laughed loudly, and that laughter sounded so sad and helpless.

"Your Majesty, the concubines don't know where you heard the rumors, if the emperor wants to punish the crime, the concubines are willing to accept it."

"Chu Xiangwan, is the fall from Shangyang Mountain a rumor? Is the sharing room in the village a rumor? You rushed up to save Huangfu Jingyao in the suburbs of Beijing, and I saw it with my own eyes, including this scarf, which was also searched from Huangfu Jingyao's bedroom, is it also a rumor? Huangfu Jingwen spoke in one breath, and his heart seemed to be cut and cut by a knife.

Chu Xiangwan didn't expect Huangfu Jingwen to know so many things, and her eyes widened for a moment, not knowing how to respond.

"Why, I have exposed your adultery and have nothing to say? No wonder the Queen Mother wanted to marry at the last canonization ceremony, he said that he was interested in the woman in the palace, it turned out that it was not a joke, and he said that he loved a woman deeply, and that woman was you. Hello guys, it's hard to hide it. Chu Xiangwan, is there anything wrong with you and Huangfu Jingyao? ”

"Is the emperor willing to listen to his concubines? Whether it was before or after the wedding, the concubines never did anything to be sorry for the emperor. ”

"Do you think I can still trust you today? Chu Xiangwan, I'm going to see today, are you sorry for me? As soon as the words were spoken, Huangfu Jingwen grabbed Chu Xiangwan into his arms.

"Your Majesty, what are you going to do? You let go of me! Chu Xiangwan was really anxious and afraid.

However, Chu Xiangwan's tulle tunic was torn apart by Huangfu Jingwen's efforts, shattered into pieces and fell to the ground, and now she only has a close-fitting coat. She folded her hands around her shoulders and stepped back step by step, and Huangfu Jingwen pressed forward step by step, dragging her to the inner room.

Chu Xiangwan's tears had already come out, and she kept shaking her head and saying "don't", but Huangfu Jingwen couldn't listen to it at all, he grabbed Chu Xiangwan's hand and threw her on the big bed in the inner room.

Huangfu Jingwen said: "If you want to prove your innocence to me, tonight is the best opportunity. ”

"Your Majesty, don't be like this, the concubines and King Rui are really innocent."

"Okay, then prove it to me." Chu Xiangwan's clothes had been thrown on the ground by Huangfu Jingwen, and without any prelude, he entered Chu Xiangwan's body.

"Hmm." The shouts that were about to overflow were drowned in Huangfu Jingwen's kiss, his body was in tearing pain, and tears were already flowing out uncontrollably like beads with broken threads.

"Xiang Wan, you actually-" Huangfu Jingwen raised his head for a moment, stunned and speechless. originally thought that Chu Xiangwan had long been a person respected by the emperor, but now even after drinking, he clearly knew that Chu Xiangwan was still perfect. This made him feel that he was wrong to blame Chu Xiangwan.

"Your Majesty, can you prove the innocence of your concubines now?" The pain was still there, but Chu Xiangwan became extremely conscious.

"Xiang Wan, don't be angry with me, because I love you too much, believe me, I will always be good to you." Huangfu Jingwen began to kiss Chu Xiangwan again, maybe he knew Chu Xiangwan's innocence, and he finally got Chu Xiangwan's innocence, in short, he was very excited, and his movements were also very rough, but Chu Xiangwan was like a lifeless puppet, every skin contact made her feel a collapse close to Ling Chi.

The tears had already dried, and Chu Xiangwan didn't even know when Huangfu Jingwen would leave his body. Huangfu Jingwen lay beside her, put on a close-fitting coat for her, looked at the little bruises on Chu Xiangwan's body, he hugged her apologetically, and said, "Xiangwan, I was too excited tonight, and it's not good for me to hurt you." But we are already a real husband and wife, and no matter what happened between you and Huangfu Jingyao before, I will write it off. I know that it must be Huangfu Jingyao who is pestering you, he is so bold that even the imperial sister-in-law dares to covet it. ”

Chu Xiangwan was still lying on the bed, quietly, without saying a word.

"Xiang Wan, don't be like this, are you really angry? I promise you that tomorrow I will make you the imperial concubine and make you the happiest woman in the world. Huangfu Jingwen saw that Chu Xiangwan had not made a sound, and he was a little panicked.

"The concubine is tired and wants to rest." Chu Xiangwan finally said a word, but the voice was not soft and tactful before, and the rough voice made people feel that this woman was ten years old all of a sudden, like a flower that quickly withered after blooming.

"Okay, I'm here with you, you can have a good rest." Huangfu Jingwen didn't dare to say anything more.

Chu Xiangwan turned his back to Huangfu Jingwen and said no more.

One night, Chu Xiangwan stayed up until dawn with his eyes open. She couldn't sleep at all, the pain in her body and heart were overwhelming. She thought a lot about it this night, Huangfu Jingyao was already a thorn in the emperor's eye, she couldn't mention Huangfu Jingyao in front of Huangfu Jingwen again, this would only kill Huangfu Jingyao, and even her father would be in danger. It's okay now, at least she doesn't have to feel guilty about Huangfu Jingwen anymore, she can love Huangfu Jingyao well in her heart, but the peace exchanged for innocence is really unbearable.

Before leaving, she stroked Chu Xiangwan's head and said, "I went to the court, you have a good rest, you don't have to go to Cihe Palace today to ask for peace, the queen mother will explain herself." Chu Xiangwan closed her eyes and pretended to sleep, after last night's incident, she was already physically and mentally exhausted, and she hadn't thought about how to face Huangfu Jingwen yet.

Qian'er came in to wash Chu Xiangwan, but as soon as she opened the quilt, she saw Chu Xiangwan's whole body bruised, and there was a little blood stain in the middle of the bed, she blushed all of a sudden, and said in surprise: "Miss, you and the emperor, ······ last night"

"I'm going to take a shower, throw away all the sheets and bedding here, and don't let me see it again." Chu Xiangwan had a deep disgust when he said this.

"The emperor is too much, he actually treats Miss like this." After Qian'er finished speaking, she shed tears first, there was a fierce quarrel in the hall last night, in order to prevent the palace maids and eunuchs from gossiping, she drove them all out, and she stayed outside alone, and then the lights in the hall went out, she thought it was okay, but she didn't expect that the emperor actually used force on the young lady.

Chu Xiangwan got up from the bed, who knew that she had just fallen to the ground, the soreness in her lower body made her unable to stand firm for a while, Qian'er wanted to help her, but she waved her hand and refused, she slowly got up from the ground and walked step by step behind the screen for changing clothes.

In today's court, Huangfu Jingyao stood at the head of the hundred officials again, and everyone flocked to show favor to King Rui, and their flattering and respectful faces made people really uncomfortable. Huangfu Jingwen's expression is very good, but when he looked at Huangfu Jingyao, the killing intent in his eyes that he wanted to devour alive made people feel cold, and Huangfu Jingyao obviously felt it.

Huangfu Jingyao knelt down and said: "Weichen can clear his grievances, thanks to the emperor's sage. "Actually, anyone with a discerning eye knows that it is not the emperor who is sage, but the emperor Jingyao is good at planning and will take the emperor into the army.

"I am the Son of Heaven, of course Shengming, the emperor respects Yao, you were not well protected in this assassination, so I will punish you for a year's worth of silver and punish you for thinking at home behind closed doors for a month, and you will not be used to go to court this month. Okay, let's retreat if there's nothing to do. "Huangfu Jingwen is very impatient, and now as long as he sees Huangfu Jingyao, he will tear his heart apart.
