63: Life hangs by a thread

After Shen Lanxin left, Gao Qian asked suspiciously, "What do you say between you?" ”

When Soho heard this, she was frightened, and squeezed out a smile and said, "It's okay, she asked me about getting married." ”

Everyone already knows that Shen Lan wants to get married.

When Gao Qian heard this, he immediately lowered his face and turned around and went back to the study.

After Gao Qian left, Su He hurriedly closed the door and leaned against the door, frightened, she didn't expect Shen Lanxin to know about it, she was uneasy in her heart.

Although he denied it, this is already a tacit thing for everyone.

If she complained to Gao Qian angrily, then Gao Qian's feelings for her would definitely believe her, and when the time came, Gao Qian would definitely not spare herself, no, she must not take such a risk.

When I think of this, my inner worries can't stop surging up. Suddenly, she had an idea, and a poisonous plan suddenly came to her mind.

There are still three days left before the day of marriage, and the entire Shen family is in a joyful atmosphere.

And Qingwangfu is a lively scene, people are busy arranging the palace, red cloth, red lanterns, red candles.

Shen Lanxin and Gao Xu were preparing daily necessities for marriage on the street, and the two were about to go home with large bags and small bags.

Suddenly, she stopped.

"What's wrong?" Gao Xu asked.

"Suffer, I forgot to take the hairpin you bought for me just now!" As he spoke, he was about to go back.

Gao Xu hurriedly grabbed her, "I'll go, you wait for me here." ”

After saying that, he turned around and went back.

Shen Lanxin was standing on the side of the road waiting for him, and at this time, a carriage drove on the side of the road and stopped in front of her, and suddenly the back of her neck hurt, and then her eyes went black, and she didn't know anything.

Then he was quickly lifted into the carriage and left.

When Gao Xu came back, he saw that the things on the ground were scattered all the things that the two of them had bought together just now, but there was no trace of Shen Lanxin.

But Luo said that he didn't see anyone come back, so he was in a hurry, and Shen Lanxin must have had an accident.

When everyone learned that Shen Lan's heart was gone, they were shocked, and everyone suddenly fell into a tense atmosphere.

Gao Xu immediately gave an order and ordered people to search the whole city.

At this moment, Shen Lanxin was being pulled by two people driving a carriage to the Pushi River, and she was awakened by the carriage.

Seeing that her hands were tied, she was terrified, and she tried her best to break free, but her hands were tied to death.

After a while, the carriage stopped.

Two strange men, fierce and vicious, dragged her out of the carriage.

"Who are you, why are you arresting me?" Shen Lan was inexplicably scared in his heart.

One of them said, "It doesn't matter who we are, what matters is that someone has spent a lot of money on your life, and we are just taking people's money to eliminate disasters for others." ”

Shen Lan was shocked, "Someone paid for my life? ”

Who will take his own life? She was frightened and frightened, struggling.

She asked, "Who is going to kill me?" ”

The man smiled, and the smile was extremely cold: "It's okay to tell you, you're dying anyway, the person who wants to kill you is a woman with a big belly, as for who she is, we don't know, you must have already counted it in your heart." ”

As soon as the words fell, Shen Lanxin took a breath of cold air, and his pupils condensed.

"I'm sorry, girl." Before she could react, the man pulled out a sharp dagger and stabbed her in the abdomen, blood splattered out, Shen Lanxin's face was snow-white, and he only felt the pain of muscle tearing. Then they threw her into the river.

In an instant, Shen Lan's heart disappeared into the river, and the surrounding river water was stained red with blood.

The two exchanged glances and drove away in the carriage.

Gao Xu was still anxiously searching, there was no news at all, he would never have thought that Shen Lanxin had encountered an accident at this moment.

In the evening, the moon was dark and the wind was high, and in an abandoned house, two killers were drinking. At this time, two women in cloaks appeared.

The two killers hurriedly put down their glasses.

"This is a silver ticket of 100,000 taels." Soho got straight to the point and handed over the silver ticket.

One of the killers was just about to take it when Soho shrank his hand.

Said coldly: "How do I know if she's dead?" ”

One of the killers said, "Madame doesn't believe in our brother? ”

Soho said lightly: "It's not that I don't believe it, it's just that I never do things that I'm not sure of." ”

The killer smiled coldly, "Madame wouldn't look for our brother if she suspected us." ”

Soho hooked the corners of her lips and gave him the silver ticket.

The man put the silver ticket into his arms and said, "Madame, don't worry, our brother will not cut off his own financial route if he takes people's money and eliminates disasters for others, and that person will not come back." ”

Soho didn't speak, but left with a blank face and Dongmei's support.

Shen Lanxin, don't blame me, if you want to blame, blame your own life is not good, people don't kill for themselves, as long as you die, everything will be solved, and Gao Qian will completely die to you.

Shen Lanxin's sudden disappearance made Gao Xu uneasy, who kidnapped her? He really had no clue, Gao Xu sat in the study all night, listless.

Qiao Yilong also learned that Shen Lanxin was missing, so he came to Qingwangfu alone early in the morning.

Ashin takes Qiao Yilong to King Qing's study.

Seeing King Qing supporting his forehead with one hand and rubbing his temples, he looked very painful.

Qiao Yilong did not salute, but said straight to the point: "Your Highness, what the hell is going on?" ”

Gao Xu sighed deeply and recounted the matter to Qiao Yilong one by one.

"Who is so bold as to openly kidnap Lan Xin? Speaking of this, Qiao Yilong thought for a while and said, "This must not be done by a bandit!"

Gao Xu's eyebrows jumped: "Why are you so sure?" ”

Qiao Yilong said firmly: "Bandits will not go down the mountain to kidnap people, besides, if the bandit's dress goes down the mountain, it will definitely attract the attention of others, so it will definitely not be a bandit." ”

Qiao Yilong was very sure.

Qiao Yilong asked again: "Could it be that my sister suddenly has something urgent to do, so she has time to notify her in the future?" ”

"No, if she had something to leave, why did she throw it on the ground? So for sure, she must have been knocked unconscious at the time, so the thing fell to the ground. Gao Xu's tone was affirmative.

Qiao Yilong thought for a while, "What you said makes sense. ”

Gao Xu said thoughtfully: "This king is wondering, could she have been taken away?" And it was premeditated. ”

Qiao Yilong was surprised, "Premeditated? ”

Gao Xu frowned and said, "But this king doesn't know if Shen Lanxin has offended anyone?" ”

Speaking of this, Qiao Yilong seemed to think of something! Then he took a breath of cold air.

"Could it be her?"

When Gao Xu heard this, he immediately became energetic: "Who are you talking about?" ”

Qiao Yilong stared at him, "Withhold the person who kidnapped the letter!" ”

Gao Xu's eyes flashed: "The person who detained the kidnapping letter? You mean you already know who that person is? ”

Qiao Yilong nodded.

Gao Xu's fists couldn't help but clench, "Who the hell is that person?" ”

Qiao Yilong said: "I didn't hear who she was talking about at the time, but I just saw that her face was extremely ugly, oh, by the way, it seems to be a woman with a big belly." ”

"Big belly?" When Gao Xu heard this, he picked up his sword, immediately got up, and went to the Xiangwang Mansion.

Since the day of Shen Lanxin's accident, there have been a few more guards at the door of Xiangwang's Mansion for no reason, Princess Xiang said that the city has not been complete recently, and she is afraid that she and the child in her womb will have something to lose, and Xiangwang will miss the child in her womb, so she agreed, in fact, Soho is a thief with a weak heart, afraid that someone will come to seek revenge.

When Gao Xu came to Xiangwang's Mansion, he was stopped by two guards.

"His Royal Highness King Qing forgives his sins, and no one is allowed to enter without the orders of His Royal Highness King Xiang and the princess."

How could Gao Xu take these people in his eyes, and repelled the two of them who came to the mansion to ask for their guilt.

When King Xiang heard the sound, he flew out and pointed his sword at him, and was furious.

"Fifth brother, what do you mean by breaking into this king's mansion?"

In the past, because of Lan Xin's relationship and in public, he tolerated him many times, and it was not good to have a seizure, but today he actually broke into his mansion, and really didn't take him as the third brother in his eyes.

Gao Xu did not hesitate to use his sword to block the sword that had taken Gao Qian away, without the slightest fear.

He raised his voice and said in a very contemptuous tone: "Then let's see what your princess has done?" ”

The two went toe-to-toe.

Gao Qian's brows furrowed slightly: "What do you mean by this?" ”

Gao Xu selectively ignored his words, and said in a very commanding tone: "Call your princess out." ”

As soon as Gao Qian heard this, he ordered someone to call Soho out.

After a while, Dongmei Suho came out with a big belly.

Soho was shocked to see Gao Xu, and immediately turned pale.

"Your Highness, you called me?" Soho lowered her eyes, but she felt a gaze staring at her like a sharp edge?

"Third Emperor Sister-in-law, where did Lan Xin go?" He got straight to the point and asked directly.

Su Ho was shocked in his heart and couldn't help but look at Gao Qian.

didn't wait for her to speak, but Gao Qian opened her mouth first: "What do you mean by this fifth brother?" ”

Gao Xu's eyes were very cold, and he said coldly: "Don't you know that Lan Xin has disappeared?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Gao Qian was taken aback, "Missing? Why did she disappear suddenly? ”

"Then I'm going to ask your princess!" After Gao Xu said this, her eyes turned straight to Soho, and her face turned green.

"Fifth brother, what do you mean by this? How do you know where Lan Xin is going. ”

Gao Xu tried his best to restrain his anger, his eyes sharp, "This king asks you again, where is Shen Lan's heart?" ”

Soho flatly denied it. "Even if you ask Hongu a thousand times, Hongu doesn't know."

Gao Xu suddenly pointed his sword at her, and said angrily: "This king respects you three imperial sisters-in-law, don't toast and don't eat and drink, Lan Xin was kidnapped by thieves that day, and it was you who pretended to be her sister and held the kidnapping letter in your hand."

"What did you say?" Gao Qian was surprised and looked at Soho incredulously. "You withheld the kidnapping letter?"

Soho's face turned white, and he was terrified in his heart, "Your Highness, don't listen to his nonsense." Then he looked at Gao Xu and shouted, "This palace has never known about any kidnapping letters, don't talk nonsense here." ”

Gao Xu sneered: "Nonsense? You saw Lan Xin return safely, and deliberately spread rumors about her everywhere, Soho, what kind of heart do you have? ”

Gao Qian was furious. "What the fifth brother said is true?"

Soho hurriedly defended himself, "Your Highness, you can't just listen to him and not believe me. ”

Gao Xu said angrily: "What this king said is not one-sided, and the person who sent the kidnapping letter that day can be found out." ”

Soho staggered back.

Gao Qian glared at her, his eyes split: "You still don't tell the truth?" Where is Lan Xin? ”

Su He stubbornly said: "Your Highness, catch the thief and take the stolen goods, catch the traitor and take the double, if you have evidence, send me to the criminal department, otherwise this palace will be June Zhaoxue." ”

Gao Qian: "You ......." ”

Anyway, Shen Lanxin is dead, and there is no proof of death, she bites her to death This matter has nothing to do with her, Gao Qian will not do anything with him, as for the kidnapping letter, it didn't hurt her in the end, compared to Shen Lanxin's death, it can be described as a small thing.

Things have come to this point, and it would be a waste of time to ask any more questions. Gao Xu put away his sword, "If anything happens to Lan Xin, this king will definitely not let you go." After saying that, Gao Xu threw up his sleeves and left.

As Soho thought, he had no evidence to prove that Shen Lanxin's disappearance was done by her, even if he wanted to touch him, he couldn't mess around, after all, she was still Princess Xiang, let alone kidnapping Xin.

After Gao Xu left, Gao Qian didn't care that she was pregnant, and forcibly pulled her back to the room.

He said coldly, "Where did Lan Xin go?" Don't challenge the king's patience. ”

Soho had an innocent expression, "Your Highness still doesn't believe me?" I'm your wife, why are you talking to outsiders? ”

In an instant, his expression sank, and his voice was extremely indifferent: "Don't insult the word wife, you are nothing in the heart of this king." ”。

Nothing? She loved the man in front of her like crazy, almost crazy, but he ruthlessly told her that she was nothing in his heart? It's ridiculous.

Soho sneered: "You still love her in your heart? Even if she dies, you still love her, don't you? ”

Gao Qian was a little annoyed, "So what? ”

Soho's eyes suddenly flashed with a fire of jealousy that could not be concealed.

The fire burned, and she was heartbroken: "Why do you have to treat me like this, where is she better than me, why do you all like her?" ”

"She's better than you everywhere." His voice was remarkably calm

He said this very coldly. But Soho's heart was even colder when she heard it, and she was so angry that she couldn't say a word.

She asked unwillingly, "Is it because she knows you better than I do?" ”

Even if you don't have Shen Lanxin, this king won't like you. Gao Qian said firmly, with affirmation in his words.

Soho's face is like ashes.

Gao Qian said impatiently: "This king doesn't have time to talk to you here, this king asks you one last time, where is Shen Lanxin?" ”

Su Ho gritted his teeth and said: "This palace is still the same sentence, her disappearance has nothing to do with me." ”

Soho sneered in his heart, you don't want to know for the rest of your life.

At this time, he suddenly pinched her jaw, and his eyes revealed a fierceness.

"This king warns you that if something happens to Lan Xin, this king will definitely not spare you."

His eyes met, and he glared, and there was a faint panic in her eyes...

"Don't forget, I have royal flesh and blood in my womb." This sentence seemed to be a reminder and a threat.

Gao Qian's face sank instantly, and he said in a low voice: "If it weren't for the child in your womb, do you think you would still be standing in front of this king now?" ”

Soho was stunned.

"But you'd better get acquainted, what happens to you depends on Lan Xin's situation, you'd better not threaten this king with your children, otherwise this king will let you taste the fate of threatening this king."

There was a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes.

Soho's face turned pale, and his heart felt as if it had been torn apart.

After speaking, Gao Qian turned around and left.

Su He looked at Gao Qian's distant back, only felt a pain in his heart, and a trace of resentment appeared in his eyes, he didn't expect him to be so indifferent and ruthless to her.

Gao Xu's marriage was shelved like this, and Shen Lanxin disappeared inexplicably.

Three days later.

Tanglin Imperial Palace, inside Showa Palace.

The prince sat on the edge of the bed, holding the half of the phoenix jade pendant, with a mixture of joy and sorrow, and his expression was extremely complicated, and then he put the other half of the phoenix jade pendant together to form a complete phoenix.

He suddenly asked, "Shu Liang, have you gone to inform the emperor?" ”

Shu Liang was the prince's guard. "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, someone has been sent to inform you."

He looked at Shen Lanxin who was unconscious on the bed distressedly, if it weren't for his team passing by Pushijiang, he wouldn't have found her, this is really God's arrangement, he has met her many times, but he didn't expect her to be his sister who has been separated for more than 20 years, no wonder he has a very special feeling for her, but he didn't expect that he would recognize him in this situation now.

What exactly did she go through? Who was going to kill her? Many questions lingered in its mind.

Suddenly, a voice broke his thoughts.

"The emperor has arrived, the queen has arrived, and Princess Yuanli has arrived."

Hearing this, the prince got up.

At this time, the emperor and queen, Princess Yuanli hurriedly entered the dormitory.

The prince bowed.

The queen asked eagerly, "What about people?" ”

The prince pointed to Shen Lanxin, who was unconscious on the bed.

The emperor and queen hurried forward, and the queen looked at her in surprise.

At this time, the crown prince handed over a complete pair of phoenix jade pendants to the queen.

The queen's face changed, "This was found in her?" She hurriedly took it and looked at a pair of phoenix jade pendants in disbelief.

Her eyes turned red instantly, tears flowed out, and she was so excited that she could barely speak.

The emperor also burst into tears instantly!

"In addition to the half of the jade pendant, I also found this pearl hairpin on her." The prince handed over the purple butterfly bead hairpin.

When the queen saw it, she immediately grabbed it, and she looked at the emperor in disbelief.

"Your Majesty."

When the emperor saw it, he was shocked, this was specially customized for the queen when the queen gave birth to the prince, so he was particularly impressed.

The queen trembled and held the butterfly bead hairpin, and her voice trembled, "That's right, she is our daughter." ”

The two looked at the unconscious Shen Lanxin, with a mixture of joy and sorrow.

The queen sat down, held her hand, and stroked her pale and colorless face, "My daughter, my mother has finally found you?" ”

The queen wept bitterly, and the emperor's expression was also very solemn.

After a long time, several people calmed down their excitement.

The emperor asked, "What the hell is going on?" How did my daughter become like this? ”

The prince said: "Erchen found her by the Pushi River three days ago, when she was wounded by a knife, her body was already red with blood, her anger was like a gossamer, her life was in danger, and her hands were still tied. ”

The more he spoke, the more the queen's heart ached.

The emperor clenched his fists, gritted his teeth and said, "Who did it, I must break him into pieces." ”

The queen looked worried, "When will she wake up?" ”

"Erchen has already given her the Life-Continuation Pill, and her life is saved, but I don't know when she will wake up."

At this time, Princess Yuanli said thoughtfully: "It turns out that he is a woman, or my sister!" ”

The emperor didn't understand her words, "What is a woman?" ”

Princess Yuanli said: "Doesn't my father know? He is the entourage of King Nanling Qing last time! ”

When the emperor heard this, he was stunned, it turned out that I had already met my daughter, but he didn't recognize it, it was really providential.

In the past three days, Gao Xu's life has undergone earth-shaking changes, Shen Lanxin is missing, he blames himself, borrowing wine all day to drown his sorrows, if he hadn't protected her, she wouldn't have been arrested, and there has been no news so far!

On this day, Gao Xu was getting drunk again, and Ashin had no choice but to go to Qiao Yilong.

Qiao Yilong came to Gao Xu's face, and suddenly lifted his table, everyone present was startled, and the shopkeeper saw that someone was coming to make trouble, and hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him, Qiao Yilong took out a piece of silver and blocked the shopkeeper's mouth.

Gao Xu was so worried that when he saw that his wine was broken, he said angrily, "Bold. ”

Without hesitation, Qiao Yilong grabbed Gao Xu's collar and shouted in a low voice, "How long are you going to continue like this?" ”

Gao Xu looked drunken and hazy: "This is the king's own business!" It's none of your business. ”

Suddenly, Qiao Yilong gave him a punch and knocked him to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, Qiao Yilong tugged on his collar again, gritted his teeth and said: "I hit Lan Xin for this punch, your business is Lan Xin's business, Lan Xin's business is my business, even if Lan Xin has something, you can't just give up on yourself, if Lan Xin knows that you are so decadent, she will definitely be very sad and will definitely look down on you, not to mention that her body has not been found yet, did you give up on her like this?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Gao Xu woke up as if he was drunk, "This king didn't give up on her?" ”

Qiao Yilong reprimanded: "You are giving up on her like this." ”

After speaking, Qiao Yilong pushed him away, "Think about it yourself." ”

After Qiao Yilong left, Gao Xu was stunned stupidly, and most of the wine was sober.

Half a month later

Shen Lan's heart still hasn't woken up, and the entire Showa Palace is so nervous. The emperor and queen came to visit every day, and the crown prince and Princess Yuanli guarded all day long, all looking haggard and worried, Shen Lan was unconscious, and everyone's hearts were always pinched.

The next day, Shen Lan's heart finally woke up.

The prince was overjoyed and ordered Shuliang to immediately inform the emperor and queen.

After a while, all the people came.

Although Shen Lanxin woke up, he was still a little dazed.

"Imperial Doctor Liang! Check her out! The emperor urged.

Imperial Physician Liang hurriedly checked Shen Lan's heart, "Your Majesty, she's fine!" It's just that the body is too weak, the vitality is damaged, and it needs to be recuperated. ”

"Then what are you doing in a daze, hurry up and prescribe the best and most expensive medicines." The emperor was very anxious.
