Emperor Qiandi looked left and right, paced back and forth on the imperial steps for a few steps, thought about it again and again, and finally looked at Yun Ce's face, and did not care about the charges on Yao Duran, but accused her of misleading people, and ordered her to be grounded for a year after she went back, and not to take a step!

Yao Duran knelt down and thanked him. Deep in the hall, everyone is in full view, and there is nowhere to hide with shame.

At this moment, I saw a chamberlain hurriedly enter the main hall and report: "Your Majesty! Big things are wrong! The people of Beijing are reversed! ”

"What?" Emperor Qian's eyebrows furrowed deeply.

The inner attendant reported: "Back to Your Majesty, the people in Beijing gathered together, paraded all the way to the gate of the palace, and all the chiefs knelt down, saying that they would jointly ask for their lives, and begged Your Majesty to open the net and forgive the East Palace!" ”

The house was in an uproar again.

"How so?"

"The people actually united to ask for the life of the East Palace?"

In the midst of the discussion, everyone finally realized that the wings of the East Palace were even fuller than they imagined! It has spread from the court to the people, and has been embraced and loved by thousands of people. And the will and weight of the people cannot be underestimated, even Emperor Qiandi cannot be ignored in vain, otherwise it will be disobedient to the will of the people and should not be the will of heaven. It is even more impossible to send troops to suppress it, otherwise it will be a mediocre infamy who does not love the people!

Now it's tricky.

Emperor Qiandi came back to his senses, and he was overjoyed in his heart. He asked, "Do you know why the people support the East Palace so much?" ”

The chamberlain replied, "Your Majesty, this is legendary! Every year in our Beijing, there is a man wearing a golden mask who rewards the people who guess the lantern riddles, and the people regard this person as a noble person and love him very much! But this morning, the people actually learned that our Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the mysterious noble man wearing a golden mask! Now, the people are naturally even more respectful! They said that if the East Palace was abolished, it would be to cut off the blessings of the people of Li and the fortune of the south, and it would not work. ”

Yao Duran knelt on the ground and listened to this kind of thing, and his heart suddenly relaxed. She slowly turned her head to look at Huo Jingcheng who was kneeling beside her, but saw that he didn't look at her, but the corners of her lips slowly hooked a smile.

Yao Duran understood, he came prepared today.

As she said, the golden-faced nobles have been impersonating lamps for many years, just to one day, unload the golden-faced people's aspirations.

The day has finally arrived! He has been planning for many years, and this carefully laid out move really came in handy! Maybe it's still used to turn the tide!

That's good! The party and army of the East Palace were greatly invigorated, reinvigorated, and shouted one after another: "I beg Your Majesty to comply with the will of the people and forgive the East Palace-I beg Your Majesty to comply with the will of the people and forgive the East Palace-"

Emperor Qian's view of the scene went down the stairs before the opposing party spoke: "What the people of the East Palace want is really the will of heaven!" If I ignore the will of the people and disobey the will of heaven, I will be the master of the Tao, and it is difficult to be called a wise king! In addition, over the years, Donggong Jiamu has sought good governance and has been conscientious and conscientious without negligence. Besides, the East Palace still has the merits of the Northern Expedition like a mountain, and the merits and demerits are counted again, but the matter of abolishing the storage will be talked about from now on! ”

At this moment, the opposing party, which had straightened its waist for a while, was instantly defeated. Emperor Qiandi was wise, and he brought himself in between his words, making it clear that whoever wanted to mention the matter of abolishing the reserve again was to force him to be a faint king! Who would dare to hold on to this?

Huo Jingcheng saw that the time had come, so he said: "The son knows that he is wrong, and since the father is willing to give the son a chance, the son should regret it!" The son invited himself to go to the southern wilderness to practice for a year, hoping that his father would allow it. ”

"Quasi-play, the prince has no virtue, and he will be sent to the Southern Wilderness early tomorrow morning. That's it, okay, retreat!! With that, Emperor Qian brushed his sleeves away and left the smoky court.

All the people saluted.

After sending off the holy car, a group of courtiers still stayed in the deep hall, as if this play could be sung a few more times without His Majesty, so everyone tacitly did not disperse.

Sure enough, the show was on stage again. Huo Jingcheng actually looked at Yao Duran, and said unscrupulously: "Good mistress of this hall, you are wrong!" You should not say that the women of the people send your majesty, but you should say that the daughter-in-law sends your majesty! ”

Yao Duran was speechless, and her heart was only immersed in the pain of a thousand holes.

Here, the two princesses were helped up by the maids, and they were weak and weak, and they were pity. Princess Hao was young and couldn't help it, and she was even frightened, and her eyes were swollen into peaches from crying. After she got up, she looked at Huo Jingcheng and cried: "Sixth brother, I'm ...... Even though I saw you yesterday...... But I won't say it, the sixth brother actually sent someone to kill me......"

Huo Jingcheng said loudly: "Old ten! Take your princess away! By the way, tell Concubine De Niangniang, it's right that she is on King Cheng's side! The two fists of this hall are invincible to four hands, and she planted it as she wished! Next, the main hall wants to see how the eighth and the tenth are fighting in the year that the main hall is away! ”

King Hao heard him mention himself by name, and said, "Sixth brother, don't wronged people!" My princess was hurt like this by you, can't even say a word? Besides, what does this have to do with my mother? ”

"Huh! Concubine De wants to be the successor, and if she can't succeed and wants to be the queen mother, then she can only unite with others to get rid of the palace first, and then fight in the nest. After Huo Jingcheng finished speaking, he looked at Qiao Fengzhi again, and said: "Shangshu, Shangshu, it's really hard for you, this palace has worn a green hat for you for so long, you can still endure it until today, it's really the prime minister's belly that can support the boat." ”

Qiao Fengzhi said a lot of words, chuckled, and left with Huo Jingyao in a dashing manner.

"Lord Shangshu!" Yao Duran suddenly shouted out to stop him.

Qiao Fengzhi stopped and turned to look at her. His eyes were strange and cold, never again.

Yao Duran walked towards him step by step, looked at the unfamiliar face in front of him without blinking, and then handed him the long hairpin in his hand: "Since the folk woman has humiliated Lord Shangshu like this, then today, the folk woman begged Lord Shangshu to kill the folk woman with her own hands to vent her anger." ”

Qiao Fengzhi looked at the long hairpin in her hand and took it.

"Qiao Fengzhi." Huo Jingcheng's leisurely voice interjected again: "Do you dare to touch the mistress of the main hall?" ”

Qiao Fengzhi looked at Huo Jingcheng through the silent crowd and said with a smile: "What does Your Highness think?" How dare Weichen touch the person in your heart? Weichen was just angry that he was blind and humiliated for marrying Yao. So this hairpin ......"

When the words fell, Yao Duran's eyes suddenly turned bright red, and she looked at it, only to see that Qiao Fengzhi had stabbed the long hairpin into his own chest, and the blood was gushing, flowing down the seam of his hand......

For a moment, everyone was shocked.

"Ahem-" Qiao Fengzhi suddenly couldn't hold it back, and coughed on one knee, and a few mouthfuls of blood sprayed on Yao Duran's feet.

"You ......" she looked at him coughing up blood at her feet, tears filled the air, the curtain distorted and melted inside, the time when they once loved each other was fake, and the once conclusive vows and alliances were fake. Only the bright red blood in front of him was true, it was the shame she caused him, the shame that he hated to be reborn and bleed and wanted to erase.

So, how true and false are his accusations? Is it a pure false accusation with a clear conscience? Or does she have no trust in the assertion that she is out of the wall?

"Bong Zhi !!" Huo Jingyao was crazy, and went to help him with red eyes. Qiao Fengzhi was helped by him to stand up again, wiped the blood on his lips at will, pulled out the long hairpin on his chest and lit it in the palm of his hand, and said to her: "Yao Duran, from now on, the two do not owe each other." When the words fell, the "horn" sounded, and the long hairpin in his hand broke in response, broke in two and fell at the feet of the two people.

Yun Ce came back to his senses and scolded angrily: "Shaft! Today, you accuse the East Palace with the reputation of being a wife, and you are not afraid of being punished by God? ”

Qiao Fengzhi didn't look at him, but sneered: "Lord Xiangguo is really joking, how many sins have you done in your life for the so-called righteousness?" You can still live well, can I still be punished by God if I divorce a wife who is out of the wall? Hehehe-hehe—" With that, he clutched his chest and left the hall with a long smile.

Yao Duran stayed in place, not knowing which corner of his body it was, and died in pain.

Here, Lord Ling also snorted coldly and said to Huo Jingcheng: "Southern Wilderness penance for a year? This is a wonderful delay! It's just that His Highness is so mediocre, and ten years can't restore today's stinking reputation! ”

Huo Jingcheng said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, if you can't get your reputation back for ten years, it's always better, but you have lived for half your life but you have been blinded by lard." ”

After that, Huo Jingcheng pulled up Yao Duran and left the Jinluan Hall in full view of everyone.

The sky was dazzling, and Yao Duran burst into tears as soon as she came out.

Huo Jingcheng looked at her, sighed, and pulled her as he walked: "Yao Duran, tenacious, brave, fearless, let go, relieved, everything is difficult to do, but everything can't be done." Between you, even if you blame him, you also blame yourself, too gullible to trust a person, invest too much, irrigate too much, and in the end you bloom ugly flowers, why bother staring at them every day? I threw it away earlier. ”

Yao Du dyed beads of tears, and her eyebrows and eyes were full of sorrow: "Your Highness, actually, I still have a way to go." ”

Huo Jingcheng looked at her sideways: "What way?" ”

She slowly raised her eyes to look at him, and said seriously, word by word: "Your Highness, tenacity, bravery, fearlessness, let go, relieved, these, twilight dye is here to send you all, Your Highness will always have a day when the sea of bitterness will turn over, may you one day reign in the world, with virtue Zeshi, wash away today's shame!" ”

With that, she smiled at him suddenly, shook off his hand in his confusion, and then swept by, slamming headlong into the last stone lion at the bottom of the steps.

There was a muffled "bang", and the blood flowed profusely, blurring her eyes, blurring her world, blurring everything. Blood splashed on the stone lion's big bronze bell eyes, and then slowly slid down, as if even the stone lion could not have a heart like a rock, shedding a drop of blood and tears for the world.

After all, she was unsuccessful in seeking death under His Royal Highness Jinluan, and only passed out from her injuries, and was personally sent back to Hehuan Lane by Huo Jingcheng. Now, the two of them are in a big position, and there is no need to be taboo anymore.

Early in the morning of the second day, Huo Jingcheng set off from Beijing and went to the Southern Wilderness with a few escorts.

It wasn't until the evening that Yao Duran woke up in a daze, moved slightly, her brain was full of pain and dizziness, she frowned painfully, but in the next moment, the whole person was stunned.

"Mother?"

I saw the crown princess sitting on the edge of her bed, looking at her deeply.

Yao Duran hurriedly sat up and said, "Niangniang, when did you come?" Why didn't Biya wake me up? ”
