Chapter 149: Trickery
In the Danxia Palace, Ye Lingyi was teasing the little rabbit, stuffing three or two pieces of green vegetables from the imperial dining room through the wooden cage, and the rabbit looked at the woman with gentle eyes outside the cage and happily smacked her mouth and ate it, and soon ate the three or two green leaves, and then stood up and waited for the woman to eat again.
Just when he felt that the rabbit had an amazing appetite, a tall figure walked in from outside the hall, and saw a familiar thin back in the hall, his footsteps stopped, and his obsidian eyes were bright and bright.
"Sister Green Kite!" The two little palace maids who were in charge of sprinkling water and cleaning respectfully saluted Ye Lingyi, who was the emperor's personal maid.
The latter only looked up with a polite smile, lowered his eyes and set his eyes on the cute white rabbit in the cage, his face full of tenderness.
The palace maids looked at each other and smiled, walked out, didn't take two steps, but met a tall figure behind the curtain depicting the four seasons of the landscape.
After seeing the man's face clearly, the two little palace maids were so shocked that they wanted to kneel and salute, but they were stopped by the man, put their index fingers against their lips and made a silent movement, looked at the hazy back behind the curtain, raised their hands and waved, and retreated a few waiting palace people in the hall.
Lift the curtain and walk over.
Stupidly looking at her, his steps were gentle, and every time he took a step closer to her, the originally calm heart turned up a layer of turbulent waves, invading his heart one after another, and at this moment he suddenly realized that the position of women in his heart had become so important unconsciously.
Although Helian Che didn't tell him in detail about the royal gate, he knew that she must have experienced something very terrible there, and he only hated himself for being too careless and letting Cheng Ji's people kidnap her so easily.
Although Helian Che later told him that she was fine, and that she would only need to recuperate for a few days before she could return, these days of her absence suddenly made him know the taste of food, and since she disappeared, he had hardly slept well, and every time he woke up at midnight, he was in front of her, from the first time he saw her to the time she stopped him from harming himself, and then to the night when the acacia flowers were fragrant on the southern patrol road, she sat under the tree, full of locust flowers like a brocade, and she said to him: "Me! When I first met the emperor, I had expectations for him! ”
smiled slightly, and it was beautiful, and instantly became an eye-catching bright color on his way to getting lost......
Maybe it was sensing that there was someone behind her, the softness in the woman's eyes suddenly became sharp, her fingers slowly touched the short blade hidden in her sleeve, she turned around quickly, her movements were neat, and the short blade in her hand slammed into the neck of the person behind her, and pushed him to the wall while she was unprepared.
The two of them were close at hand, and when they looked at it, their sharp expressions suddenly froze: "Your Majesty? ”
Even in this case, the bright eyes above his head were still filled with emotion, and he looked at her fixedly, as if to include her completely.
"Slaves should be damned!" Startled, she withdrew her short blade and was about to step back when the man suddenly opened his arms and hugged her tightly.
The good-smelling mint fragrance hit the tip of his nose, Ye Lingyi's heart jumped violently, and in his confinement, he moved with difficulty: "Your Majesty, what is this for?" ”
The more she struggled, the harder the man tightened his embrace, and a thousand words came to her heart, and finally turned into a choked sentence in her throat: "You are finally back." ”
Ye Lingyi was stunned.
Feeling her in his arms, a heart carried by Li Yuanlin finally landed slightly.
It took a long time to let go of her, and said with distress and self-blame in his eyes: "I'm sorry, it's all my fault that made you suffer." ”
Ye Lingyi didn't know how to react for a while, touched her head, and was a little worried: "The emperor is serious, it's not me who suffers." "It's the thirty people who were killed by Ye Zhenzhen.
"I know everything in front of the emperor's gate, don't worry, I will definitely seek justice for you, Cheng Ji will pay the price for everything he has done."
A gloomy look flashed in Li Yuanlin's eyes, and there was a determined expression on his face.
Ye Lingyi was in a complicated mood: "The emperor really knows everything in front of the emperor?" Doesn't the emperor blame me? ”
In Li Yuanlin's eyes, which gradually became confused, he hesitated for a moment and said with difficulty: "Actually, those thirty people ...... I killed it, they were sent by Cheng Ji to besiege me, I didn't expect the plan to fail, Cheng Ji set up a killing situation in front of the palace gate, and planted forces in the palace to rob the palace people, he was afraid that the palace would be guilty, in order to clear himself, so he said that the Heishui people killed the thirty people. ”
In fact, Li Yuanlin had already thought of such a conclusion, but it was still shocking to say it from her mouth, one person killed thirty people, such an unbelievable thing, even a man as strong as an ox would be difficult to do.
What's more, she was born with such a weak appearance.
Could it really be that she did it?
Li Yuanlin fell into deep doubt while getting the answer.
It's hard to imagine that such a pair of slender hands would turn into the claws of hell, taking human life as a harvest of grass mustard, and tirelessly raising and falling with knives again and again.
Just thinking about it is heart-wrenching enough.
Ye Lingyi noticed that his face was different, hesitated for a moment, and knelt on the ground: "Qing Kite has done something rebellious, please ask the emperor to surrender!" ”
Ye Lingyi didn't spare her life, but even if the thirty people were not killed by herself, Ye Zhenzhen's actions were inseparable from her, even if the turmoil had passed, if she pretended not to know anything, she was using Li Yuanlin to kidnap her mind, and she didn't want to become such a shameless person.
But how could she ever know Li Yuanlin's thoughts? How could he bear her to admit her sins and suffer?
"Don't do that." Li Yuanlin smiled bitterly, helped her up, looked at her seriously and said: "Those stragglers under Cheng Jiao, who rely on Cheng Ji's support on weekdays, have caused a lot of trouble to the people, and if they die, they will die." But if you really plead guilty, you might as well promise me one thing. ”
"What's the matter?" Isn't it a personal promise?
Ye Lingyi was skeptical.
provoked Li Yuanlin to cry and laugh: "Don't worry, it's not what you think, I haven't thought about it yet, I'll tell you when I think about it." ”
Hearing him say this, Ye Lingyi had no choice but to nod, and gradually understood in her heart that Li Yuanlin meant that she was actually just trying to alleviate her guilt in front of him.
Such a gentle and good man, it is a pity that she only has gratitude in her heart for him, and the more grateful she is, the more she feels ashamed of him, because she has already given her love to another person.
Inside the Saint-Nin Palace.
Helian Che, who was dressed in a dark blue court robe, waited in the hall, and Tang Luo, as the guard of Shengning Palace, also stood aside.
The two big men were alone in the same room, and the atmosphere in the hall was strange for a while.
Until Empress Liang walked out from behind the curtain with the support of Mama Lin.
"See the Queen Mother!" The two men shook their tongues in unison.
Liang Hou raised his hand slightly and made a gesture of support, which was considered a waiver.
The two men stood up, watching Liang Hou sit on the golden chair, looking at Helian Che with a pair of beautiful eyes, and the killing intent of Helian Note in his heart became firmer.
Helian Che looked at Liang Hou quietly, secretly guessing Liang Hou's intention to summon him in such a hurry.
At this moment, I heard Empress Liang say: "Captain Helian, if the mourning family remembers correctly, the death day of your biological father, the late General Pingyuan, is coming, right?" Be...... This month? Oh, it's next month? ”
How did you get involved with your father?
After sweeping the beam of his eyes, he pretended to make a conjecture, and Helian Che's eyes were cold for a moment, and he immediately said: "Back to the Queen Mother, my father died in the golden autumn of October, and there is still more than a month before the day of the big trip!" ”
"Oh......"
Empress Liang groaned and said, "So, your mother's death day is approaching, and the mourning family remembers that your mother committed suicide at that time?" ”
Liang Hou pretended to be unable to remember.
But it was she who supported Helian Note to ascend to the position of Taishi, how could she not know that his mother was killed by Helian Note on the night of her wedding to Helian Zhu?
Helian Che's eyes were condensed with ice, and he understood Empress Liang's intentions in an instant, recently Helian Zhu had destroyed Liang's forces one after another, presumably she hated it very much, so she wanted to re-energize his hatred by recalling the old things.
The purpose was to use his hatred against Helian Note.
After pondering for a moment, he restrained the coldness in his eyes: "Back to the Queen Mother, my mother...... Indeed, he committed suicide. ”
There is a lot of hatred in one sentence.
Empress Liang was satisfied, her red lips opened up with an imperceptible sneer, but she deliberately sighed: "Alas, it's a pity." The mourning family still remembers that your mother traveled to Tokyo when she was young, because she was born beautiful, and caused a sensation in the whole Tokyo city overnight, how many sons of the family fell for it, but only your young and promising father Helian Yunpu won the heart of the beauty, the mourning family still remembers the scene of their wedding, the sky is full of happy silk, fresh clothes fluttering, one is Pan Yue Tanlang, the other is a foreign beauty, how many Western Dynasty people were envious at that time, but who would have thought that those things would happen later, it's a pity, it's a pity......"
Liang Hou's expression changed from longing for mentioning the old things to regret at the end, Helian Che saw it in his eyes and did not make a sound.
Empress Liang only thought that he was too sad to remember his parents, looked at his expression, seized the opportunity and said: "By the way, calculate the time, Captain Helian is also the year of the weak crown this year, right?" Can the master handle the marriage for you? ”
"Empress Dowager Xie cares!" Helian Che bowed slightly, his eyes were contemplative, "The Taishi is busy with official business, and his subordinates also feel that it is still early to start a family, so they have not yet discussed marriage." ”
"How can this work?" Liang Hou immediately took the case and made a resentful appearance: "The sons of all families are like you, with their mothers in charge, I am afraid that the children can be called fathers, although your mother went early, and the uncle Taishi is here, now the uncle and son are full of wives and concubines, and you are still alone!" How could this Helian Taishi be so favoritism! How unreasonable! ”
Helian Che quietly watched her play.
After the anger subsided a little, Empress Liang glanced at Helian Che, and said: "The mourning family really can't bear it, if the mourning family comes to be the master of your mother, order the officials to submit a document to see which adults and ladies have not yet come out of the cabinet, and then screen one or two, Helian Duwei should also become a parent." ”
