Chapter 305: Digging Your Own Grave
Li Yanran thought about this, but she was secretly shocked by the ruthlessness of the royal family and the fierce open and secret struggle.
The emperor can even calculate his own brother, what else can he not do?
Li Yanran was originally embarrassed and sighed, but for some reason, a bold but terrifying guess suddenly popped up in her mind: she entered the palace to investigate the murderer for so long, but she couldn't find the slightest useful clue, could that person be the emperor?
If it is the emperor's hand, then even if something is found, it will be quietly pressed down, and it will not be able to make a splash.
Li Yanran's heart froze, and the fist hanging down her side clenched violently, if it was really the emperor who ordered her to destroy the whole door, then her road to revenge would be more and more difficult.
After a long time, Li Yanran let go of her clenched palm and slowly exhaled a turbid breath, now everything is just speculation, but she can take the emperor as the object of investigation to investigate, after all, there is no impermeable wall in this world, if she has the heart to investigate, she will be able to capture some details that no one cares about.
After Li Yanran thought things through, she was served by Songzhi to take a bath, and today the emperor said that she would come to her palace, plus the things entrusted to her by Bai Weiying, she naturally had to do her best to do it.
After Li Yanran finished bathing, the emperor had already arrived in Li Yanran's bedroom.
"Your Majesty, you are here." Li Yanran leaned in front of the emperor, raised her face as beautiful as a clear water hibiscus, and said in a coquettish voice: "The concubine just thought that Your Majesty would not break her word, Your Majesty, you seem to be in a good mood today." ”
Li Yanran said as she used her fingertips to trace the outline of the emperor's face, and finally stopped at the corner of his mouth.
When the emperor heard this, he nodded with a smile and said: "Concubine Ai is really delicate, I am indeed very happy, this has finally relieved a major trouble, I am really happy in my heart!" ”
"Oh?" Li Yanran remained silent and continued to probe: "Really? Your Majesty is so happy, the concubine is very happy when she sees it, and it is naturally a good thing to have capable people to help Your Majesty, but the concubine is worried that one day if this is the water that should be carrying you, and accidentally overturns, then what should I do? The concubines regard Your Majesty as their heaven, so naturally they don't want Your Majesty to have any errands. ”
Li Yanran actually wanted to take this opportunity to provoke the relationship between Si Yuanqiong and the emperor, and by the way, prove his guess in disguise, if the emperor bluntly said that Si Yuanqiong helped, then the person who harmed Si Huazhen would be obvious.
Of course, she doesn't expect to be able to shake the alliance between the two with just a few words, the two are brothers after all, and if she wants to destroy the trust between the emperor and Si Yuanqiong, it will take some time to slowly figure it out in a silent manner.
But what Li Yanran didn't expect was that the emperor not only didn't have any suspicion of Si Yuanqiong's intentions, but had an inexplicable trust in him, "Concubine Ai, you are really worried, I know what you want to say, but ah, Yuanqiong will never harm me, when I first ascended the throne, my position was not stable, and all forces were eyeing him, and it was Yuan Qiong who helped me sit on this dragon chair." ”
Li Yanran saw this, but the emperor was afraid that he was digging his own grave, so how could Si Yuanqiong be willing to make wedding dresses for others? It was just because the situation at that time was too complicated that he wanted to push the emperor out as a shield, but who would have expected that the emperor would be able to sit on that chair for so many years with peace of mind.
"Your Majesty, the hour is not early, let's settle it early." Li Yanran didn't want to talk nonsense with the emperor anymore, no matter how much she hinted, it would only be useless with the emperor's appearance.
It's better to take advantage of the emperor's confusion and think about some words.
After the layers of veils fell, the figures of the two people overlapping on the inside of the bed were also hidden, and the little eunuch kneeling in the dark didn't know what he was recording, and he didn't know when he quietly disappeared.
After Bai Weiying received the news from Li Yanran, she confirmed her original guess, Si Yuanqiong was really a wolf's ambition, and this layer of calculations actually played with people's hearts so easily.
Bai Weiying is more and more worried about Si Huazhen, no matter how much Si Yuanqiong is the final winner in his last life, he can ascend to the throne, and the power and scheming are definitely beyond the reach of ordinary people, plus she can't help Si Huazhen now, I'm afraid that some words and some things are still more difficult to do.
Bai Weiying was thinking hard about how to meet Si Huazhen in a reasonable and non-suspicious way, but Si Huazhen "happened" to appear in front of her.
"White girl, we are really destined." Si Huazhen stood beside Bai Weiying, opened the folding fan, and shook it gently in front of him, "This landscape painting has lofty intentions, it is a masterpiece, the artistic conception is profound, and it is not the flow of spring and white snow, but it is elegant and vulgar appreciation." ”
Bai Weiying listened to Si Huazhen's comments and didn't think much about it, Si Huazhen's appearance really seemed to be seriously commenting on this painting, and he didn't even show a trace of superfluous emotions.
Bai Weiying nodded in agreement, "That's right, the prince is really discerning and painting, the little woman has been doing a lot of research on the art of physiognomy in recent days, looking at the behavior of the prince, although it is leisurely, but it is also passive, the little woman has a humble opinion, the prince is temporarily avoiding this juncture, it is also a wise move, and when the water comes to fruition, it will definitely turn the tables against the wind." ”
Si Huazhen was surprised, and in addition to appreciating it in his eyes when he looked at Bai Weiying, there was also an inexplicable understanding.
Bai Weiying is just a woman, but she can analyze such a treacherous situation so thoroughly, and even give him guidance.
But Si Huazhen felt that this was a matter of course, as if Bai Weiying should be like this.
Si Huazhen arched his hand at Bai Weiying, "Thank you Miss Bai for this reminder, this king will definitely remember it." ”
Bai Weiying said "um", her purpose had been accomplished, so naturally she didn't stay any longer, and after buying the painting she liked, she turned around and left the calligraphy and painting shop.
Si Huazhen was still standing where Bai Weiying was standing, and he didn't leave, and a smile flashed on the face that should have been as noble as a noble son.
It seems that today's chance encounter is not without gain, at least he got a proverb from Bai Weiying, and this is enough.
It's better than staying in the mansion and being aggrieved, Si Huazhen was suddenly a little glad that he was idle in the mansion this time, if not, he really couldn't detect the strange emotion in his heart towards Bai Weiying.
