Chapter 41: A Sudden Fall on Fire
"You and I are both excellent people, it shouldn't be difficult to enter and exit the Prime Minister's Mansion, right?" Ruoxi smiled slyly, Shui Hua immediately understood, the bright one can't work, you can come to the dark. Not during the day, they can visit the Prime Minister's Mansion at night.
Nangong Shuihua smiled knowingly, this Ling Ruoxi is really a ghost elf.
"Mo Ze, the forbidden army will be rectified today, I can't be separated, you go over to help Jing Chong." Jing Chong is the current deputy commander of the forbidden army. After Ling Ruoxi was appointed as the commander, except for dealing with a group of people who had collusion with Bian Changgeng, the rest of the staffing remained basically unchanged, and Jing Chong was like this. This Jing Chong, although he has a cold temperament, but he has good ability, and an adjustment made in order to adapt to the prince's return to the palace is by no means difficult for him. Ruoxi asked Mo Ze to come over to help, but he was actually selfish. Before, before he got married, Mo Ze could follow Ruoxi from birth to death to defend the country; But after starting a family, in addition to everyone, there is also a small family to protect. Ruoxi knows the pain of losing her beloved, such pain, she doesn't want Lu Wan to bear it one day, all the best way for Mo Ze is the forbidden army.
"By the way, tell Qingyue to help me prepare a set of night clothes."
"General, what are you?" Mo Ze asked puzzled.
"Visit the Prime Minister's Mansion at night, you can go out first." Mo Ze went out and bumped into Lu Wan at the door, "Wan'er, why are you here?" ”
"I heard that you were back, so I thought I'd come over and see you." This little couple has just gotten married, and it is really difficult for them to catch up with Nangong Ling. Through the door, Ruoxi heard two people whispering and slowly walked away.
"What people!" Situ Ao, who was sitting in front of Situ Shaoyun's coffin wiping tears, was startled by a dart inserted directly into the coffin board. There was also a small note hanging from the tail of the dart. The subordinates were all sent away by Situ Ao, and there was no one around. Situ Ao vigilantly picked up the dart and opened the note on it. "Someone spies on the Prime Minister's Mansion tonight." A line of small print comes into view. Situ Ao's pupils shrank suddenly, and sure enough, when Ling Ruoxi and Nangong Shuihua appeared this afternoon, he knew that they were suspicious.
Who is this messenger? Which of them has an undercover agent next to them? And the person who told him where Luo Shuihua was hiding last time was a person?
Situ Ao's heart flashed with thousands of thoughts, these are not important, there will be time to find out slowly in the future. The most important thing now is how to deal with tonight's events.
The two white candles on the offering table were burning and dancing with strange sparks. Situ Ao's expression gradually became gloomy, and his eyes were also dyed with a little coldness.
Shaoyun, don't blame Dad!
Raise your hand and push the candle to. The mourning hall was full of paper money and white flags, and the fire soon exploded. Situ Ao sat by the coffin, quietly listening to the movement outside. Shaoyun, Dad will avenge you, whether it is Nangong Chen, Nangong Shuihua or Ling Ruoxi, they all have to die!
The servants who were opened saw that the mourning hall was on fire, and ran over in a panic.
"It's water, it's water."
"The front yard is watery!"
"Come and put out the fire!"
"Come on, come on, you go this way, you go over there. And you, hurry up, hurry up. ”
"Quick, go in and get the young master's body out, go quickly!" The butler of the Prime Minister's Mansion commanded the servants to put out the fire, and only realized that something was wrong when he was half-loud, "Where did the master go?" ”
An ominous premonition rose in his heart, and he grabbed a passing servant and asked, "Do you see the master?" ”
"No, no." It's broken, there is such a big incident in the mourning hall, and the master still doesn't show up, won't it be ...... The housekeeper didn't dare to think about it.
"Butler, butler, I was just on duty in the front yard, and the master drove us all away, saying that he wanted to accompany the young master himself. He won't ..... sir."
Someone confirmed the guess in his heart, and the housekeeper panicked even more, "Don't worry about the young master for now, take a look at the master, the master is not inside." Outside in a hurry, I finally saw two little guys coming out with Situ Ao, who was already unconscious.
"Quick, go get a doctor." The housekeeper instructed his subordinates to ask for a doctor, and at the same time helped to help them into the house.
"Butler, the fire is too big, the coffin is already on fire, we really can't save the young master." On weekdays, Shaoyun treats people gently, hey, it's a pity, such a good person didn't end well.
This sudden fire, due to the arrangement of the mourning hall, quickly expanded its territory, and it was thanks to the surrounding people who rushed over to help that the fire was controlled.
Situ Shaoyun's body was left in the sea of fire and turned to ashes; Situ Ao was overly sad and inhaled thick smoke, and fell unconscious. The emperor also specially sent people to condole, rewarded a large number of supplements, and instructed the good students to take care of the right minister.
"How can it be so coincidental? As soon as we wanted to find out the cause of Situ Shaoyun's death, the mourning hall caught fire. "Nangong Shuihua never believes that this is an accident," what did Xiangfu say? ”
"It was said that the white candle burned out and ignited the tent, Situ Ao indulged in the pain of hurting his son and didn't notice it, which delayed the opportunity." Ruoxidao.
"How's the right phase?"
"Not awake yet."
Don't blame Shui Hua for being suspicious, this is too coincidental. But now that the clue is broken, they have no other way. I have no choice but to leave it at that.
Regardless of the criminal department's use of all means, Lihan was as if he was dead, indifferent. Even Ruoxi was never able to pry his mouth open.
Nangong Chen also gave up the idea of asking something out of his mouth, and was scheduled to be beheaded in three days, and Situ Ao was beheaded. It is said that Situ Ao personally asked the emperor for this, saying that he wanted to see the murderer of his son, Fufa.
"Ruoxi, tomorrow must be arranged, from the criminal department to the execution ground, all the way must be arranged manpower to prevent someone from robbing the prisoner."
Ruoxi nodded to show that she understood. If there is really someone behind Lihan, then this is the best time to save people. He has laid a net of heaven and earth, and if anyone dares to come, he will not be able to escape.
I haven't washed it for many days, and Lihan can almost be described as unkempt. The long hair was not tied up, and it was scattered on the sides.
"Execution." Situ Ao's emotionless voice came, his hand rose and fell, and the knife fell and his head was broken. The rebel thief is separated from the culvert, and the head is in a different place.
The body is so light, the surroundings are so beautiful, and the fairy aura is surrounded, is this heaven? It was as if I heard my mother calling to myself, "Mother, is that you?" Are you here to pick up Han'er? ”
Rushing over excitedly, wanting to pounce on his mother's arms, but, when he lowered his head, there was nothing. "Mother, mother, where are you? Don't you want Han'er? ”
"Han'er, go back quickly." A gentle girl came over, "Han'er, go back quickly, Daddy needs you." The mistakes made by my mother can only be atoned by you. ”
yes, and the father. My brother is gone, and I am my father's only son, and I can't leave my father at this time, but will my father still want him? After all, the plate of poisoned osmanthus cake was prepared for him at the beginning.
"Wake him up!" It was the voice of the father. Li Han was still unhappy, and he felt that he had suddenly entered the ice and snow, cold, so cold. Instinctively, he curled himself up and tried to keep warm, but was ruthlessly kicked away, "Get up if you're still alive!" ”
There is no skin and flesh on the whole body that no longer hurts, and it is difficult to breathe. The eyelids are so heavy and heavy, it seems that my eyes are closed like this, and I don't have to wake up again. But my father seems to be angry, and I can't make my father angry, I can't.
Exhausted your mind, open your heavy eyes, and slowly adapt to the light, are you not dead yet? Was it the father who saved himself? Does it mean that my father is willing to forgive me?
There was a series of questions in my heart, and I wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask. More than twenty years of instinct allowed Lihan to prop up his broken body, and barely maintained a kneeling posture that could be seen in front of Situ Ao. "Lord!" As soon as he opened his mouth, Li Han knew how bad his state was. The continuous torture and blood loss and lack of water made his voice almost lose its original sound.
Situ Ao thought that he would be angry, would kick the person in front of him, and would beat him hard, but in the end all he said was, "Why not you?" ”
Six words without a head and no brain, but Lihan understands, why didn't you die? Lihan didn't know what kind of mood he was in right now. Sad? But he also hoped that the person who died was himself, not his brother. If he could get his brother back, he would be willing to die in the most tragic way. Senseless? But he is also the son of his father, and he will be sad.
Lying deep on the ground, a hoarse voice came again, "Please give your subordinates a chance to avenge the young master!" ”
The matter of the true and false princes, there is another one who is affected - His Royal Highness King Cheng. Originally, he wanted to join forces with Ling Ruoxi to get rid of the fake prince. At present, the fake prince has been eliminated, but what she didn't expect is that she has a better relationship with the real prince, and it is simply a fantasy to want to rebel. Just when King Cheng was at a loss, the opportunity came to the door.
"Father, this was placed at the door." Shaoxuan pushed the door in with a brocade box sent by his subordinates, "I put it at the door, and when the subordinates go out to look, the people are gone." ”
Very delicate and small sandalwood box. Shaoxuan just wanted to stretch out his hand, but was stopped by Nangong Cheng, "Be careful that there is a mechanism." ”
Split the wooden box with a long sword, and unexpectedly, there was a piece of jade pendant lying in it. It's crystal clear and very beautiful. Even Shaoxuan, who had seen the treasures of foreign countries, couldn't help but admire.
"This, this jade pendant, was matched by Ling Yunsi back then!" Nangong Cheng's shock was no less than that of Shaoxuan. He had always thought that this jade pendant had been buried deep underground with Ling Yunsi, why did it suddenly appear here?
"Father, no matter who this jade pendant comes from, he will give us the jade pendant, just to help us again. I was worried that there was nothing to obey Ling Ruoxi, this jade pendant came in time. Shaoxuan's words were right, if you wanted Ling Ruoxi to believe what they said, you had to have enough evidence to prove that this jade pendant was the best thing.
is still listening to the banquet in the Rain Pavilion, but this time there are only Ruoxi and Shaoxuan.
"General Ling, my father cleaned up the house a few days ago and packed up an object, and specially asked me to hand it over to you." Shao Xuan took out a delicate box from his arms, for fear of breaking the person. "My father said that although he was reluctant to give up, the things of the deceased should be returned to General Ling."
