Chapter Eighty-Eight: Infatuation is always ruthlessly misplaced
Looking at Qingluan, who was bleeding and dying in front of him, Xiao Wen was still calculating in his mind at the moment, and he couldn't think of why Qingluan committed suicide in front of him.
He walked up to Qingluan and covered her wounds to prevent the blood from coming out.
And Qingluan also fell into a coma at this time because of the severe pain, Xiao Wen tried, and Qingluan still had some faint breath left.
"Tell the widow! Why? Xiao Wen asked aloud in confusion.
After a while, Qingluan slowly opened his eyes with difficulty, saw Xiao Wen pressing the wound for himself, and opened his mouth slightly and said extremely weakly: "Your Majesty...... Your Majesty may not believe it...... Minister...... The concubine is really ...... I don't want to hurt Your Majesty, I beg Your Majesty to let my sister go! "
As he spoke, tears flowed uncontrollably from the corners of his eyes.
"Xue Tao forced you to assassinate the widow?" Xiao Wen asked.
Qingluan shook his head with difficulty and said, "No! It's none of Mrs. Xue's business...... I beg Your Majesty to let them go......"
Before he could finish speaking, a mouthful of purple-black blood spurted out of his mouth.
"Qingluan can ...... Enter the palace to serve His Majesty...... It is the blessing of Qingluan, and it is also ...... It is also Qingluan's calamity, if it is...... If there is an afterlife, Qingluan is still willing to do it...... Your woman! "
After speaking, he closed his eyes with tears in his eyes and said no more.
Xiao Wen tried her snort with his fingers again, but there was no breath at all.
"Imperial Doctor!" Xiao Wen yelled loudly.
Qingluan inserted a dagger into his heart, just wanting to die, leaving no room for himself at all.
Xiao Wen was not surprised by the scene in front of him, he was already surprised, there were countless people he had wanted to think about or had already killed, "Emperor Liang Wudi, Xiao Jing, Xiao Zhong, Empress Youlan, Concubine Hu, Gao Dazai...... These people more or less also wanted him to die, at least he thought so.
Since he was a child, because of his bad background, he has to look at the faces of everyone in the palace, from his father to the queen, and even the palace people, all of them are villains who tend to be inflammatory, he hates them, and he has no feelings for anyone.
I thought that Long Beauty was here to assassinate herself, so she could kill Mrs. Xue with a plan!
But he never dreamed that Long Beauty, a woman who seemed to be weak and weak, would choose to do it to herself, in contrast, Xiao Wen was both surprised and disappointed!
He didn't know what Long Meiren's intentions were, and he was disappointed that she didn't stab himself with a knife!
When the imperial doctor came, Qingluan was lying on the ground, almost a half-cool corpse!
"The knife is inserted into the heart, and the internal organs of the mother are damaged, and I am afraid that I will not be able to return to the sky! The minister is incompetent, beg Your Majesty to spare his life! Doctor Zhang Ji said.
Xiao Wen put his hands behind his back, took a long breath, walked over and stood by the window and looked out of the window, and said for a moment: "The widow knows, but if you want to live, you have to do one thing for the widow!" "
"The minister will never give up!" Zhang Ji knelt on the ground and said.
"Make a wound for me!" Xiao Wen said coldly.
"Your Majesty?!" Zhang Ji said in horror.
"Hurry up! Before the others arrive, you'd better listen to the widow's orders! Xiao Wen looked at Imperial Doctor Zhang with a solemn expression.
"Minister...... Obey the order. Imperial Physician Zhang agreed in a panic.
"You know what to say!"
…………
When Chen Xian, Xiao Mingyue, Han Taichang, and Xiao Wan and Qing Kite arrived, they saw Qing Luan lying on the ground covered in blood, covered with a white cloth, and Xiao Wen's left arm was also wrapped in a white cloth, and it could be seen that blood was oozing out of it.
"Your Majesty, the minister is incompetent, and he has not been able to protect His Majesty at all times!" Chen Xian first stepped forward to plead guilty.
Xiao Wen said while being dressed by the imperial doctor: "General Chen, don't blame yourself, it was the widow's concubine who assassinated the widow, it seems that the widow should be more careful when choosing a concubine in the future!" "
"Stabbing?" Xiao Wan muttered in a low voice.
"Lord Taichang, what are you still doing in a daze, why don't you go and notify the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs of the Manchu Dynasty and strictly investigate this matter! The widow will not die, and this matter will not be settled! Xiao Wen said to Han Taichang.
"Impossible! My sister would never do such a thing! Could Your Majesty be mistaken and not wronged my sister!?" The blue kite pleaded almost with a cry.
"Wronged? Do you mean that the widow wronged her with his life? Xiao Wen said coldly.
"Your Majesty is angry, Huamei is also overly sad because of her sister's death, I hope Your Majesty is kind-hearted and doesn't blame her!" Xiao Mingyue hurriedly defended the green kite on the side.
"Since you are sisters, your sister assassinated the widow, how could you, the younger sister, not know about it? Come! Hold this gorgeous woman in jail! Strict interrogation," Xiao Wen ordered the forbidden troops on both sides.
"Impossible! Your Majesty! Wronged! My sister would never assassinate His Majesty! The blue kite retorted as she was dragged away by the forbidden army.
"Your Majesty!" Xiao Mingyue continued.
"That's it! You stop interceding for others! Could it be that you are also involved in this matter? Xiao Wen looked at Xiao Mingyue and said.
Xiao Wan heard this and hurriedly defended Xiao Mingyue and said: "Brother Huang, Sister Mingyue has been staying in Chunning Palace these days, taking care of the diet and daily life of the concubine, Huan'er can testify, Huan'er goes to find Sister Mingyue every day!" "
Chen Xian also said: "Your Majesty, this matter should be carefully investigated, and you can't let go of the mastermind behind the scenes, and don't wronged the good people!" The county lord is simple-hearted and kind-hearted, and will never do anything to hurt others! "
Xiao Wen nodded and said, "What General Chen said is reasonable, the widow has ordered Han Taichang to investigate this matter thoroughly, the person was sent to the palace by Xue Tao, and this matter should also be investigated from him!" You don't have to worry about it! The county lord takes care of the old lady hard, Huan'er, help the county lord to go back and rest! "
Xiao Wen almost ordered Xiao Mingyue and Xiao Huan.
Seeing that the form was not in his favor, Xiao Mingyue said to Xiao Wan with interest: "Princess, let's go back!" "
Xiao Wan also noticed that Xiao Wen was tired, so she left with Xiao Mingyue.
After walking out of the imperial study, walking dozens of steps, and seeing that there was no one around, Xiao Wan asked curiously: "Sister Mingyue, do you think that beauty will really assassinate my second brother?" "
Xiao Mingyue was silent at first, and then said to Xiao Huan: "Hearing is false, seeing is believing." What's more, sometimes what the eye sees is not the truth! The princess should leave this matter alone, let's go back! "
Although he said this, he was unbelievable about Qingluan's death in his heart, thinking that it would definitely not be what Xiao Wen said just now, there must be something else wrong with this matter, and he must find out the truth! But it's inconvenient to involve Xiao Huan too!
In the imperial study, Xiao Wen left Chen Xian alone.
Chen Xian looked at the corpse on the ground, and he also felt strange in his heart, not like Xiao Wen said.
But in order to continue to gain Xiao Wen's trust, he still pretended to believe in what Xiao Wen said on the surface, and did not show all doubts at all.
And the reason why Xiao Wen left Chen Xian alone, firstly, although Chen Xian is Xiao Zhong's old department, he is an upright person, not like some villains, although he does not trust him very much, but he also believes that he will not operate in the dark.
Second, I also want to test how sincere Chen Xian is to himself, and now he wants to get rid of Xue Tao completely, if Chen Xian is completely on his side, it is worth reusing.
Although he admires his skills, if he is inseparable from himself, and his heart is in Cao Ying, then he will never raise a tiger!
The forbidden army and others carried the body of Long Meiren to another place, and the palace people cleaned the imperial study again.
was ordered to retreat by Xiao Wen.
Only Han Taichang, Huang Shangshu, and Chen Xian were left.
Han Taichang was single-handedly raised by Xiao Wen, Huang Shangshu also chose to follow Xiao Wen when he was still a prince, and Chen Xian belonged to the "outsiders", both of them were wary of Chen Xian, although they did not dare to slander and falsely accuse, but they also secretly investigated Chen Xian, wanting to seize his handle, get rid of Chen Xian, and consolidate the status of the two.
Compared with Chen Xian, it's not that he doesn't know, but he just pretends not to know, and he almost does not leak in his actions, and there is no handle to grasp.
Xiao Wen looked at the three people below and said, "What do the Qing family think about the assassination of the widow?" "
Huang Shangshu naturally understood the intention of Xiao Wen's words, and first said: "The minister thinks that if a concubine dares to assassinate His Majesty, she must be instructed by someone behind her back. And since this woman was sent to the palace by Xue Tao, it is naturally inseparable from Xue Tao! "
Xiao Wen listened and nodded.
Han Deyun also added: "This matter is very important, now that Your Majesty's dragon body is damaged, the people involved should be strictly investigated, Long Meiren's sister and Xue Tao, everything that has something to do with them, don't let anyone go!" "
Xiao Wen was proud when he heard this, and looked at Chen Xian again.
said: "What does General Chen think?!" "
Chen Xian had already understood the meaning of this, and understood that Xiao Wen was determined to treat Xue Tao to death, and it was also a temptation for himself.
had to pretend to be angry and said to Xiao Wen: "Since this matter involves a lot, Your Majesty must carefully investigate and find out who is behind the scenes!" "
"Hmmm! You can say that again. General Chen! Han Taichang! You are the ministers of the humerus of my Great Liang, and this matter will be handed over to you for investigation! Don't let the widow down! "
"Obey the order!" Han Deyun was instructed to say.
"Obey the order!" Chen Xian also said.
Xiao Wen then said to Huang Shangshu: "For the sake of the long beauty who has served the widow, keep her whole corpse, and go to a wasteland outside the palace to bury it!" "
Huang Shangshu: "Yes, Your Majesty." Your Majesty is kind-hearted, it is really the creation of Long Beauty, and the ministers of Long Beauty thank Your Majesty for your kindness! "
"If it's okay, you all step down!" Xiao Wen said.
"Yes, the minister retires, Your Majesty take care of the dragon's body!"
"The minister retires, Your Majesty is so good to live and recuperate!"
"The minister will retire, and the minister will definitely find out the facts and find out the culprit!"
The three of them said one after another, and then retreated together.
Out of the imperial study, the two showed disdainful faces, Huang Shangshu said to Chen Xian: "General Chen is really like a fish in water in the officialdom, he used to have His Royal Highness as a backer, and now His Majesty values it, admires and admires it!" "
Han Taichang also sarcastically said: "General Chen can bend and stretch, and he is an example for us to learn!" "
After saying that, the two looked at each other and laughed.
Chen Xian's dignified seven-foot man, although he was insulted like this, he also knew how to forbear, and he didn't show any anger, thinking that he was for Xiao Mingyue and Xiao Zhong...... So what was it, so he was silent and went straight away.
The two of them saw that Chen Xian was not angry or angry, so they left boringly.
Xiao Wen continued to sit in the imperial study, thinking about everything that had just happened, and couldn't help laughing.
"Borrowing a knife to kill someone, making something out of nothing!"
This time I will definitely kill Xue Tao!
