A faint aroma of wine suddenly drifted in the wind, and Qingyun frowned slightly, and followed the aroma of wine.
In the stone pavilion not far away, Xu Kexin sat at the stone table, slightly raised her head and looked at the dark night sky, the moonlight cast a hazy clear light on her face, her skin was white like clotted fat, glowing with pearl-like brilliance, and there was undisguised sorrow between her eyebrows, and a layer of rich sadness flowed around her body.
In the past, the three emperors' sisters-in-law always had a gentle smile on her face, but she didn't see her for more than half a year, she became so haggard and lonely, lonely like the cold lonely moon in the sky at this moment, and the pity and guilt were like vines wrapped around the light cloud's heart.
Walked to Xu Kexin's side in the stone pavilion, reached out and took the wine glass in her hand, the cold feeling from her fingertips made Qingyun's face condense, and she took off her cloak and put it on Xu Kexin: "The wind is cold at night, the third emperor's sister-in-law should pay more attention to her body." ”
"Jiu'er." Xu Kexin, who suddenly came back to her senses, put away her sadness, and hurriedly stood up and returned the cloak to Qingyun, who looked concerned: "You are weak, you should put it on, you can save the cold." ”
Qingyun was not reluctant, after fastening her cloak, she took Xu Kexin's hand and sat down, and persuaded softly: "The third emperor's sister-in-law can rest assured, the third brother and Xu Yu Shiji have their own natural appearance, and they will be safe." ”
According to the secret report of Zike and others, Lord Cai and the third brother questioned the authenticity of Sima Chun's edict of succession, and Sima Chun imprisoned the third brother and them and Lord Cai, as well as Lord Cai's family members for the crime of contempt for the king.
And the upright Xu Yushi and the Qing gossip officials jointly signed a letter, asking Sima Chun, who had not yet succeeded to the throne, to release the third brother and them, and severely impeached Sima Chun for plotting to usurp the throne.
Sima Chun was annoyed and ashamed, but he did not dare to harm Xu Yushi because of the founding emperor's testament, 'the official is not guilty', so as not to cause the words and officials to criticize the Qingliu, after all, his throne has not yet been stabilized, but he can not punish Xu Yushi, he is angry and unsettled, so he scolded Xu Yushi in public.
Poor Xu Yushi, who has always enjoyed a very high reputation among the literati and is polite and polite, not only suffered such a humiliation and lost his dignity, but also almost lost his life because of it, and all his family members were also placed under house arrest.
"I hope so." Xu Kexin tried to pull out a faint smile on her face, but she was dazed and worried.
Seeing this, Qingyun said apologetically: "I'm sorry for the Third Emperor's sister-in-law, it is me and the Sima family who owe you a lot, otherwise you wouldn't have suffered such grievances." ”
If it weren't for the sake of maintaining her, the third brother would not have chosen the third sister-in-law as a concubine, if it wasn't for the Sima family, the third brother would not have affected the three emperors' sisters-in-law.
"Jiu'er, don't say that, I am willing to do all this, I have no regrets!" Xu Kexin hurriedly shook his head, looking at Qingyun's eyes firm and affectionate: "My father has always been loyal to the monarch, patriotic and upright, and now that he is plotting to usurp the throne, my father naturally advises to maintain the society of the country, even if he dies, he is still glorious even if he dies, and the prince is a member of the royal family, and he should fulfill the responsibilities and obligations of the royal family, as for me, being able to marry the prince as a wife is a blessing that I have cultivated for several generations, since I should share the honor and disgrace with the prince, and maintain the Sima family and you as a treasure, it is also my responsibility and obligation, I am just worried about ......"
"The third sister-in-law is worried about Zhang Lianwu!" The light cloud heart is as clear as a mirror.
"Although Zhang Lianwu's thoughts are very hidden, we all know that she has always liked the prince." Xu Kexin sighed faintly: "If she really loves the prince, even if I feel uncomfortable and even jealous, I won't be so worried and uneasy, and now this situation is ...... I'm afraid that she will do whatever it takes to get the prince. ”
Qingyun's eyes were heavy when he heard this, and his beautiful and vulgar face was covered with a layer of snow and frost.
Zhang Lianwu is indeed very obsessed with the third brother, and she failed to marry the third brother as she wished, perhaps because of the pressure of Lin Bingquan and Zhang Zishan, or because she was worried that the third brother would have to restrain her feelings when she noticed her ambitions, presumably Sima Chun also knew Zhang Lianwu's thoughts, so he reached some kind of agreement, and the two would become a fake couple.
Now that the third brother is imprisoned in the prison, Sima Chun tried his best to steal the throne but could not ascend the throne, and Zhang Lianwu, who has the support of the Absolute Dust Palace and Zhang Zishan, will definitely do everything possible to persecute the third brother while coveting the country.
What worries her even more is that with Zhang Lianwu's vicious nature, if she can't get the third brother, she will definitely ruin the third brother.
It seems that he has to inform Long Ying to arrange someone to secretly protect the third brother, if the third brother really has a mistake, he will blame himself and regret it for the rest of his life.
"Rest assured, the third brother is determined and resourceful, and his martial arts are extraordinary, and I will arrange the secret guards to protect the third brother and them at all costs."
"I believe that the prince has his own natural appearance, and I also believe that you will be able to protect the prince and them." Xu Kexin's clear eyes flashed with concern and worry: "It's just that Lin Bingquan and Zhang Lianwu have been planning for a long time and are ruthless, and the capital is already under their control, you must be more careful, and you must not let yourself be in danger." ”
Holding Xu Kexin's hand tightly, Qingyun's heart was full of emotion and warmth.
"Since ancient times, evil has prevailed over good, even if Lin Bingquan and Zhang Lianwu have exhausted their calculations, from the moment they want to steal the country, they are already destined to end up with nothing but a bamboo basket, but I will keep in mind the advice of the third sister-in-law to protect myself, so as not to worry my relatives and subjects, and please take care of the third sister-in-law, I believe that the day when the third sister-in-law and the third brother reunite will not be too long."
"Hmm." Xu Kexin nodded emphatically.
Seeing that the sorrow between Xu Kexin's eyebrows had dissipated, replaced by firmness and expectation, Qingyun put her mind at ease: "The night is deep, I'll send the third emperor's sister-in-law back to the room to rest." After speaking, he took Xu Kexin's hand and left the stone pavilion.
In the next few days, Qingyun and others have been discussing the specific plan to enter Beijing in the study, and after the reinforcements from all parties have quietly arrived at the designated place day and night, Qingyun settled Xu Kexin and others, and was about to sneak back to the capital secretly with Mo Xuan, Lan Jue suddenly came to the manor with Huyan Hualing.
"Sister......" hurriedly stepped forward and threw herself into Qingyun's arms, ignoring Mo Xuan's face next to him, which suddenly became dark as ink, as well as the warning eyes of Chi Guoguo, Hu Yanhua Lingfeng's beautiful little face rubbed against Qingyun's chest, and said coquettishly: "Sister, Ling'er misses you so much!" ”
Gently hugging Huyanhua Ling, Qingyun said softly: "Sister also misses Ling'er, it's been hard to Ling'er along the way." ”
"As long as my sister is safe and sound, no matter how hard Ling'er is, it's worth it! By the way, sister, I brought two people to meet you! ”
