Chapter 437: Begging for mercy
"Isn't the most nonsense in the palace?" Ling Ruo smiled casually, his red lips opened lightly, and Qing Yue's moving voice resounded in Shi Qiuci's ears, "My sister has been with the first emperor for more than ten years, and I should understand the truth that accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, the twenty-third elder brother will grow up, he will be crowned the king and the Baylor, and he will do things in the court; The more capable he is, the more he will be in the limelight, and what do you think will happen if there are some rumors that happen to the emperor? ”
"The emperor is a British capital, how can he listen to these nonsense rumors.|i^ What's more, the first emperor passed on the throne that day, and the rest of the elder brothers couldn't hear whether the first emperor was the fourth elder brother or the fourteenth elder brother, but Yinqi clearly said that it was the fourth elder brother, Yinqi treated the emperor with a sincere and innocent heart, how could the emperor be suspicious of Yinqi." She scoffed, but no matter how calm her voice was, there was a panic in her eyes.
Ling Ruo glanced at it and said calmly: "A ten-year-old child is naturally sincere and innocent, but what about twenty years old, thirty years old, can you guarantee that the emperor will not be suspicious for the rest of his life?" Today's emperor is indeed a celestial leader, but he is also suspicious. Yinqi is the prince, and based on this alone, there are countless ways to make the emperor suspicious. Confined? Exile? Dethrone? Which one does my sister think is more suitable for Twenty-Three Elder Brother? ”
Her understatement made Shi Qiuci like a lightning strike, and her hands couldn't help shaking, she grabbed her hands tightly, but found that she couldn't stop at all, because it was not only her hands that trembled, but her whole person. After a long time, she sat down in the chair and said with blank eyes: "How can you let our mother and son go?" ”
Shi Qiuci knew very well that Ling Ruo was not untargeted, she was Yinzhen's pillow person, and she won her trust, and it was not difficult to discredit and deal with someone.
Ling Ruo bent his fingers and looked at the nails like onions, "This palace just wants to ask my sister one thing, do you want to pay back the sins that my sister made back then, or let Yinqi pay it back for you?" "Shi Qiuci may be ruthless, but Yinqi is her own flesh and blood born in October, I believe that no mother will want to see her relatives and children suffer, which is why she dares to go this way tonight.|i^
Sure enough, Shi Qiuci only hesitated for a moment before gritting his teeth and saying, "Concubine Xi said that a charter came out, and I will do it." "Man is a sword, I am a fish; Thinking about this, this should be her deepest feeling at the moment.
"Charter?" Ling Ruo smiled forgively, and there was a chill surging in the depths of his eyes, "Sister thinks that you have anything else this palace wants at this moment besides this life?" ”
The moonlight is like water, illuminating a room that is quiet and cold, I don't know when it began, in this moonlight, with a little raindrops, rustling on the leaves, occasionally a gust of wind blows in, with the deepest chill at the end of winter, as if to freeze people.
Shi Qiuci could hear the sound of her teeth chattering because of the cold, and she had an urge to close the window, but she knew in her heart that her coldness was not because of those raindrops, but because of Ling Ruo's words that clearly wanted to kill her.
"Plop!" In the growing night rain, Shi Qiuci suddenly knelt in front of Ling Ruo, and begged with tears in his eyes: "Ruo'er, please let me go for the sake of our many years of affection, I can promise that I will never be your enemy in the future, nor will I take a step out of Shoukang Palace, will you let me go?" ”
Ling Ruo looked down at her, her eyes calm, "If I begged you like this back then, would you let me live?" ”
Shi Qiuci was stunned, then slapped himself in the face, and cried bitterly: "I was wrong, I really know the truth, I hurt my sister when I was obsessed, and I have never slept well for more than ten years, and I have been reprimanded by my conscience all day long." Fortunately, sister, you are deeply blessed, the fourth elder brother ascended the throne as the emperor, and you won the emperor's pity and was named Concubine Xi. Sister, please forgive me and Yinqi for the sake of the sisterhood between you and me for so many years; In the future, I will pray for my sister in front of the Buddha every day, and bless my sister with good health and prosperity for the rest of her life. ”
She didn't care if Ling Ruo would believe her words, she just couldn't wait to find a way out, she hadn't seen Yinqi get married yet, and she hadn't enjoyed the glory and wealth that had been hard enough, she didn't want to die, absolutely not!
Ling Ruo's eyes turned slightly, and landed on the back of his right hand, where a drop of rain was slowly sliding down his smooth skin, and it fell on the gold brick with a "tick", shattering and invisible.
"If the Buddha hears his sister's words, I'm afraid he will be ashamed to death." She lowered her eyes, and there was no emotion, except for the coldness, there was only Sen Han, "It's late, sister, don't waste time, you or Yinqi, there is no third way!" ”
Shi Qiuci didn't expect Ling Ruo to ignore his bitter pleading, his heart was full of grief, could it be that today's catastrophe was really inevitable?
Thinking like this, the hatred for Ling Ruo in her heart became deeper and deeper, since it was useless to beg hard, she simply got up, pointed at Ling Ruo's nose and scolded: "Niu Hulu Ling Ruo, you are so vicious, you don't leave room for others, be careful of retribution in the future." ”
Ling Ruo smiled slightly, indifferently, "Don't worry, even if there is really retribution, my sister won't see it." After saying this, she raised her eyes and motioned to Shui Xiu, who knowingly closed the window, making Dena Xiangju seem to be isolated from the world at this moment.
"My sister has been delayed for a long time, and I want to come to the first emperor in the sky, so I'd better go on the road early." She said, always with a smile between her eyebrows.
Shi Qiuci bit her lip stubbornly, if her eyes could kill someone, Ling Ruo had already died thousands of times, but unfortunately she couldn't, so she was the one who was going to die.
"I ...... I want to see Yinqi again! She knew that if she wanted to save Yinqi's future life, she would inevitably die tonight, because she wanted to see her relatives and children again before she died.
Ling Ruo hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly, motioning for Shui Xiu to summon Yinqi. At that time, Yinqi had already finished his homework and was about to wash up and rest, and he heard that Eniang wanted to see him, but he said that there was something wrong, so he came over with Shui Xiu without asking too much.
After entering the house, seeing that Ling Ruo was still there, he was a little strange, and walked in front of Shi Qiuci after following the rules, and found that her eyes were red and swollen, as if she had cried, and hurriedly asked, "Eniang, are you crying?" ”
"Nope." Shi Qiuci hurriedly shook his head, holding back the sourness on the tip of his nose and squatting down and hugging Yinqi hard, "Have you done your homework?" ”
Yin Qi immediately nodded and said: "Well, my son is not lazy, the homework assigned by Master Wang has been completed, and even the "Mencius" chapter of the "Analects" has been written silently. ”
Shi Qiuci was both relieved and sad and stroked Yinqi's braid hanging behind him, "Really good, remember, you must study well in the future, and don't neglect your schoolwork, so that you will achieve something in the future." ”
"My son will remember E-Niang's words." After saying this, Yinqi stroked Shi Qiuci's somewhat astringent face with some confusion and said, "E-Niang, is it true that she didn't cry?" ”
