Chapter 84: The Puppet
Soon Ye Chao entered the study.
"Is the shepherd girl's medicine ready?" Situ Yu's tone was much softener than just now.
"Back to the prince, it has been fried and handed over to Ling Yatou."
"Hmm!" Situ Yu nodded, "Send a message to Li Cheng, just say that this king's order, from today on, without the permission of this king, no one is allowed to step into the 'Hanhui Pavilion' without permission, except for you and Ling Shuang, no one is allowed to approach the herdsman." In addition, all food and utensils must be carefully inspected. ”
"Yes!" Ye Chao was not surprised at all by such an order, he had already seen the weight of this shepherd girl in the prince's heart.
After ordering all this, Situ Yu turned to business: "Why didn't the prince go tonight?" ”
"Back to the prince, the prince was going to go, but for some reason, he turned back halfway through, according to the spy, he received a secret letter, and his subordinates wondered if someone had gone to reveal the news?" Tonight, I wanted to stage a good show of praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finches, but I didn't want that praying mantis to escape.
"Secret letter? I know, you go down first, during this time you can concentrate on recuperating the body of the shepherd girl, and you don't have to worry about other things for the time being! ”
"Yes! But the day after tomorrow, the prince's wedding ......, "The state of the prince in the past two days made Ye Chao a little worried.
"Everything is simple for the wedding, this king will arrange someone else to handle it, don't worry, there will be no accidents!"
"Yes, then the subordinate will retire first!" Ye Chao said as he retreated.
Situ Yu changed his clothes, put on a mask and walked into the secret passage.
Changli Palace, Chengtian Palace.
Situ Yueshan, who was sick and weak, leaned on the dragon couch, looking at the enchanting and charming woman in front of the couch, a little stunned.
The blue and white porcelain bowl is held in the hand of the slender white jade, reflecting each other, and through the heat rising in the bowl, how many times does that stunning face only appear in dreams.
"Chan'er......" Cangsang's voice was infinitely doting and gentle, and his empty eyes suddenly brightened.
"Your Majesty, it's time to drink medicine!" Empress Xiao's voice was slightly cold, and the corners of her mouth were smiling coldly.
Scapegoat! This identity that makes her hate to the bone is a nightmare that she can't get rid of for the rest of her life, all thanks to that woman, who has been dead for so many years, and still fights with her in the shadows.
A "emperor" woke Situ Yueshan from his trance, and the pain and disappointment in his eyes were removed, he looked at the black medicinal juice in the bowl, and the sound of the porcelain spoon knocking the bowl pulled him back to the cruel reality at once.
"Why should the queen do it herself, I have always been very obedient!" The voice was cold and self-deprecating, and it was like two people with the previous "Chan'er".
"It is precisely because the emperor is obedient that the concubines have to serve in person!" Her voice is as delicate as a yellow warbler, and her eyes are extremely charming, but with her cold smile, it makes people shudder.
"The queen got her wish, aren't you afraid that person will be unhappy?" Situ Yueshan took the decoction and held it in his hand, only to see the heat rising in the bowl, but he couldn't smell a trace of the smell of medicine.
"Humph! You men are all the same, unkind! What love, love, it's all fart! In the end, it's just the word "utilization"! Xiao Juan got up from the chair suddenly, regardless of her identity, and spoke in a voiced voice, with hatred on her beautiful face.
Situ Yueshan raised his eyes and glanced at her, his eyes were full of disgust, and he regretted even more for the ghost at the beginning.
"Unkind?" sneered: "Have you ever used sincerity with anyone?" "I looked through the window lattice and looked out at the flower branches that were being destroyed by the wind and rain.
That Qionghua was planted by him himself, and he planted it with a longing for love.
But now, the flowers are flying away, and the residual fragrance is empty! People are gone, and their hearts are dead, and they are so desolate!
Situ Yueshan retracted his gaze and swallowed the medicine into his stomach.
Wholehearted! How she hasn't been, but her true heart is not rare! This was another pain in her heart, and every time she thought about it, it made her angry.
"Tomorrow, the king will get married, the emperor should rest early, and the concubine will go to the main wedding with you!" Suppressing the emotions in her heart, she said coldly.
"Can I still go to the officiating marriage like this?" He leaned against the head of the bed and tilted his head slightly, panting softly.
"Tomorrow morning, I will send someone to bring medicine, and if your son gets married, you, who will be the father and emperor, don't you give someone a handle!" If the emperor doesn't go, how can she, a queen, come forward. In order to avoid extraneous complications, tomorrow she will witness Xi Ruoya and Situ Yu get married no matter what.
Situ Yueshan glanced at the palace people serving on the side, as well as the eunuch Anu who was about to serve him to bed, and said a little helplessly: "Do what you say!" Anyway, it's up to you to decide whether you're dead or alive! With that, he closed his eyes, making it impossible to see his inner struggle.
He is the only one in the world, but who would know that he is just a puppet in this golden cage. His wife died, his beloved woman went, his sons didn't kiss him, and even Anu, who had served him since childhood, betrayed him.
He has no nostalgia for this earthly world, but he still has use value, and they still want to get what they want from him, so that he can't even control his own life and death.
And today's everything, but no wonder others half of it, it's all his own fault. Although he is indecisive by nature, timid and cowardly, he can still keep the country left by his ancestors with the assistance of good ministers and virtuous ministers, but he is loyal and treacherous, listens to slander, and cuts off his right arm with his own hands, so he will fall to such a point.
At this point, what else is he afraid of, since he can't die, he will live well, cowardly for most of his life, he also wants to be brave, live well to the descendants of Situ, give Changli Jiangshan a chance, he wants to see with his own eyes what will happen to these "thieves"!
Xiao Juan glanced at him disdainfully and glanced at Anu.
"Don't worry, the queen mother, Anu will definitely be waiting for her life!" Anu understood what she meant, but she was afraid that the emperor would not be able to stand the stimulation, so she looked for a short time, and now he can't die!
Xiao Juan walked out of the Chengtian Hall and returned to Yanfu Palace, as soon as she entered the house, she was hugged by her waist from behind, and the familiar breath came, and she sneered in her heart.
"What? Came to settle accounts with me? She let his hand rub against her waist.
"I didn't expect that girl to find you!" The loud noise was kept to a low level.
"Any woman wants to marry the man she loves, I just pity her and want to fulfill her, but it's also your daughter, you are really ruthless as a father!" The gentle body fell into his arms, and the slender jade hand caressed his chest.
"Ruthless! If I hadn't been ruthless, where would we have been at ease today, maybe I would have become a pile of bones. However, you shouldn't meddle in this matter! Xi Bochang held back his anger and said unhappily.
"Shouldn't it have been done yet, is it possible that there is still room to pay it back? Or do you want to abandon us from now on? The coquettish voice carried a little grievance.
"That's it!" Xi Bochang sighed: "But only this once, if you make your own decisions next time, don't blame me for being ruthless!" "It's not entirely a bad thing to let Xi Ruoya marry into the Chenwang Mansion, since Situ Yu wants to use her as a bargaining chip, why can't he just plan it!
"You're here late at night to question and threaten me? If so, your purpose has been achieved, and if nothing else, please go back, I will rest! With that, she straightened up, took his hand away, and walked towards the bed.
Where was Xi Bochang willing to put it, and dragged her back with force: "What? Do you blame me for not hurting you properly? But if you don't see you for seven or eight days, you can't wait, since tonight is here, how can I let you go so easily! As he spoke, he picked her up and walked towards the bed, along the way, the clothes flew away, and the spring was infinite.
Xi Bochang knew that such a woman could only make her die for herself if she conquered her body first, and now this situation does not allow them to have infighting.
The only person who followed Xiao Juan into the inner bed was her henchman Huan Amang, and the moment Xi Bochang appeared, she consciously withdrew and cleared the rest of the palace people. At this moment, in Yanfu Palace, there are only the two lingering bodies on the exquisite phoenix couch.
