Chapter 182: A Thousand Miles of Lovesickness
Seeing Xi Ruoya's reaction, she was very satisfied, slightly hooked the corners of her lips, and said proudly: "That's right!" The slave maid also found it by accident when she was helping her clean up her belongings, and she was surprised at first, but later she secretly inquired and found out that it was not easy between them, and he had saved her life! ”
"But it's just a portrait, how can you be sure he'll save her?" At first glance, I was a little surprised to see the person in the painting, but when I thought about it calmly, I couldn't help but be a little disappointed, and I thought it was a big secret!
"Don't worry, princess, since the slave and maid dare to say this, there is naturally a reason. I remember that when she was in Haoqing Garden, she raised a pot of orchids, which she had been handed over to Ling Shuang to take care of herself, and she was regarded as a baby. Later, I learned that the pot of orchids was given by King Yi, everyone knows that King Yi loves orchids, but he never gives them easily, and even Concubine Yu can only be honored with two pots every birthday, which shows the intimacy of the relationship between the two.
Seeing that Xi Ruoya nodded frequently when she heard this, she took out another thing from her sleeve: "In addition, the slave maid also found this!" ”
Xi Ruoya saw that she took out a white jade pendant, which was smooth and clear in color, not ordinary.
Chunmei took it and handed it to her, this jade tentacle is warm, the texture is excellent, and the carving is even more exquisite, but this style is a little familiar, it seems to have been seen somewhere.
"Where did this jade come from?"
"It was found in the baggage of the portrait, does the princess feel familiar?"
"Familiar! However, I can't remember where I've seen it for a while! Xi Ruoya touched the jade pendant with her hand, and found that the edges and corners were very round, it seems that the owner of the jade pendant must like it very much, and often strokes it with her hands.
"Lord Yi also has a piece similar to it!" She reminded softly.
"That's right! I remembered that Situ Yun did have such a piece, and he always hung it with him! Situ Yun's clothes have always been plain and simple, so that jade pendant is particularly conspicuous on him.
Seeing Xi Ruoya slowly getting up, she smiled faintly: "The princess should believe what the slave said this time!" ”
So it seems that the relationship between them is really extraordinary! This Situ Yun lives in a simple and simple life, never paying attention to worldly things, if he really comes forward to intercede, things are really difficult to say. Some time ago, even his own princess had a miscarriage, he was able to protect Lin Wanyan, and now it seems that they do have a problem, no wonder the prince will have such a big fire in the Chengtian Palace that day, and abandon her! The more Xi Ruoya analyzed, the more she felt that this was the case.
"Isn't it? How can an ugly woman like her be worthy of the prince's favor, and ask the princess to make up her mind earlier! ”
"Got an idea?" The corners of Xi Ruoya's eyes were slightly raised, "Aren't you here to offer advice today?" Listen to your ideas! ”
"So, the slave and maid are scared!" She bowed slightly, "Actually, this matter is easy to do, the princess should make a move before King Yi!" What is the crime of fornication with a married woman? ”
"You're ruthless! Ordinary women who fornicate with others will be punished with a naked cane, and they will no longer have the face to live in the world after the execution! But the royal family can't tolerate such ugly things, and people who are not from the royal family can only 'die'! This is a good plan, but the show is all for the finale! Xi Ruoya showed a cold smile, she didn't believe that Lin Wanyan could still survive this time!
Changhe County, Changhe Riverside. The night wind whimpered, and the stars and moon were gone.
Situ Yu stood in the wind with his hands in his hands, looking at the rolling river water crashing on the shore in shock. The Chang River is not wide, and on the other side of the river is the Sang Yue country, and in such a dark night, you can still see the lights of the stars.
Mu Yu had returned to China safely, but he did not release Ling Shuang and Snow Fox back. Inexplicably, Situ Yu felt that something was wrong.
As Mu Yu's own brother, he knew that he was ordered to go on the expedition, and he knew that those two girls were Mu Yu's most powerful helpers, why didn't he worry about her safety in the capital at all?
And this inexplicable battle, the weirdest battle he has ever fought! The commander of the enemy is not a battle-hardened and famous Mu Yu, but a young general wearing a mask.
This man had learned a good kung fu, but he did not know what his purpose was, and he had only fought him twice in the past few days. On the previous occasion, knowing that Situ Ji's large army had not arrived, he didn't know how to seize the opportunity and give them a hard blow. And this time, it was even more outrageous, Ming night's attack on Situ Ji's camp was successful in one fell swoop, but instead of taking advantage of the victory to annihilate him, he let him go at the last moment.
Situ Yu didn't feel like the other party was here to fight, but like he was here to play with them, and he was afraid that they would deliberately delay their time without fighting!
Although Changhe County has been flooded every year, the grain and grass needed for this war have long been prepared, so strategically speaking, the other party's delay is meaningless, but what is the purpose of doing this?
However, in addition to the enemy army, there is also a force secretly operating, and the purpose of that force is obvious, it is to kill them!
Since entering Changhe County, the other party has launched three secret attacks, and all of them are dead soldiers, leaving no clues, although those people are not their opponents, but they still can't take it lightly for a moment!
"Master, there is a letter from the capital!" Xiao Jiu happily handed him a small note, these days he is dealing with the enemy army, and he is dealing with the sneak attack of the secret forces, and he has to beware of Situ Ji putting cold arrows behind his back, the master has not relaxed for a moment, he has been straining his face all day long, and he has returned to the appearance of the thousand years of ice in the past. Still, this note is sure to entertain him.
When Situ Yu saw the small note, he was excited, and quickly opened it to look at it, but found that Xiao Jiuji was standing on the side uninterestingly, still there stupidly happy, and his face turned black at the moment: "Huh? ”
"Uh, my subordinates are retired! Subordinates retire! Xiao Jiu was taken aback by that look. Damn, what a god to go at the critical moment!
Through the light of the beating torches, Situ Yu saw the beautiful block letters "I wish people a long time, thousands of miles together!" ”
He rolled up the note and put it in his arms, looked up at the night sky, and sighed in his heart: tonight there is no moonlight to enjoy, how can I send my thoughts?
"Little Jiu!" His eyes suddenly lit up and he called out loudly.
"Master!" Xiao Jiu immediately appeared in front of him respectfully.
"What is the situation in the capital, is there any news from Qingming?"
"Not for the time being, I guess everything is fine!"
"Immediately gather the generals of each team to enter the account, there will be a military order to communicate!" Situ Yu waved the sleeves of his robe and took the lead in entering the account.
The other party wants to delay time, he is not as good as they want, he is worried, and he doesn't want to spend half of his time here! Five days! If they don't withdraw on the fifth day, he will kill them to the ground, leaving nothing behind!
Changli Palace, Chengtian Palace.
Lin Zhong was wearing court clothes and solemnly bowed to Emperor Shuntian three times.
"Old Marquis, what are you going to do here? Is it to persecute me? ”
Lin Zhong pleaded angrily: "Your Majesty, the old minister didn't mean this, it's just that although Wanyan is stubborn, he has a good character, and he will never do such a hurtful thing, the old minister thinks that there must be a hidden secret, and asks the emperor to investigate this matter!" ”
"You get up and talk first!" Emperor Shuntian sighed helplessly, "I know that the Lin family has this lone seedling left, so no matter what she committed, she has always been tolerant. However, this time she was really a little excessive, the woman's jealousy was no longer virtuous, and when she knew that Ruoya was pregnant, she pushed her off the platform in front of everyone. You say, how to investigate this matter, everyone present that day can testify, she and Ruoya are the two on the high platform, she didn't push it, could it be that Ruoya jumped down by herself? ”
"Your Majesty, don't you know about the battle in the back house? What can't be done in order to compete for favor? Self-harm is just a sparse and ordinary means, so the old minister wants to ask the emperor to investigate this matter thoroughly! ”
"Old Marquis, this kind of thing is about evidence, there is no evidence, you don't have to mention this again, I just think I've never heard of it, if I let Xi Guogong know, I'm afraid I can't stop!"
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with the old minister's words, even in front of him Xi Bochang, the old minister can say the same! His daughter can't be wronged, so should the old minister's granddaughter be wronged? ”
"Hey, you! ......" Emperor Shuntian frowned and sighed extremely displeased: "That's it!" No matter who is right or wrong in this matter, it will damage the royal face if it gets out, if you are really not convinced, leave it to the Department of Internal Affairs to investigate! I promise you that I will not convict you until there is conclusive evidence. As for people, there are too many criminal laws in the Department of Internal Affairs, so let's leave them under the care of the queen! ”
"But the emperor ......"
It is better to hand over people to the queen than to go to the Department of Internal Affairs, Lin Zhong still wanted to argue, but when he saw Emperor Shuntian getting up impatiently, he waved his hand at him: "Aiqing, don't say it again, whether you are or Xi Guogong, they are all my courtiers, as long as the evidence is conclusive, I will definitely deal with it impartially and will not favor any side!" ”
Seeing this, Lin Zhong had no choice but to thank him!
At this time, in the downtown areas of the major city gates of Longyang City, a list of emperors was posted, to the effect that Lin Wanyan, the concubine of King Chen, failed to complete the birthday embroidery on time, and then deceived and deceived him. But the queen remembered that God has the virtue of a good life, and is willing to give her a chance, if someone is willing to complete the embroidery for her according to her embroidery technique within three days, this matter, the queen will no longer pursue it!
After reading the emperor's list, the onlookers looked at the word longevity displayed on the list, and they all shook their heads and sighed, and there were many discussions.
"What kind of character do you say this Concubine Lin is, a few days ago it was revealed that she was jealous and hateful, and murdered Princess Chen and her belly in public, and now she offended the queen again, she is so bold, isn't it because she has three heads and six arms?"
"She's a little bolder, but this hand-embroidery stitch is a must! The double-sided heterochromatic is distinct, seamless, but I am afraid that except for herself, no one can help her complete the embroidery! ”
"Yes, this kind of embroidery is unheard of! It seems that she is going to die on her craft......
In people's admiration, amazement, and regret, time passed day by day, until the evening of the last day, at the gate of Dongcheng, when the excitement gradually dispersed, one person quietly unveiled the emperor's list!
