Chapter 340
"Your mother was not killed by this palace!" Sihan was finally slightly annoyed by his stubbornness.
However, as soon as these words came out, he suddenly hooked his lips and smiled, "Then Sister Huang, tell me, what about the evidence?" Evidence or witnesses that you never really killed my mother? ”
Shan Zhongze is dead, how can there be evidence! Even if Shan Zhongze is still alive, this Zheqian will also remember that Shan Zhongze is her loyal person, and he will not really believe in Shan Zhongze.
In this way, the matter has come to this point, and it is useless to say more. This Zheqian has to be stubborn and think so, even if she Yan Sihan explains anything, it will be useless.
"There is no evidence or evidence, this palace is not here to tell you this, let alone to clear the suspicion of this palace in front of you."
Sihan pressed his heart, lacked interest, and spoke in a low voice.
Speaking, without waiting for Zheqian to speak, she raised her voice slightly, and said gloomily and heavily: "All the countries in the world have ambitions, such as today, although only the relationship between Tanglin and the Great Zhou is in jeopardy, and the war is about to break out, but the rest of the countries are still measured, the dark tide is surging, Tanglin has just experienced the destruction of Donglin, and now it is unstable, and the national strength has not been restored, and now it is at this time when the world is uneasy, Tanglin should be even more stable, so as not to become a country where all the countries in the world are divided into food!" But now you don't care about Donglin to break my Donglin country, kill our father and brother, dare to send 60,000 troops to serve Tanglin as minions, and even dare to lead a large army to the edge of this Qujiang River, which is bound to start a war with Da Zhou! Yan Zheqian! No matter how much you hate this palace, you shouldn't take the safety of Tanglin to vent your anger! As the heir of the Yan clan, if Dongling dies because of you, the hundred-year-old foundation that the ancestors of my Yan clan fought with blood and even carefully guarded will definitely collapse completely! ”
"Brother knows!"
He replied without being shallow.
"If you know, do you want to do this?"
Sihan stared at him with gloomy eyes.
The corners of his eyes were still slightly picked, and he didn't speak, but after a while, he suddenly opened his thin lips and said: "Father and prince have never been kind to their younger brothers, and the country of Tanglin has never been kind to them." In this way, why not use the country of Tanglin as a sword to plan the territory and wealth and glory for the younger brother? In the past, the courtiers lived in the deep palace for a long time, and they didn't know what the sky was high and the earth was wide, and they didn't know what the right was, but now the courtiers know that once they have the power in their hands, the people around them will no longer dare to abuse you and belittle you, and even the imperial sister You, now you can't take the life of the minister? Even if you hate your brother to the bone at this time, you can't convince your brother of anything, and you can't punish your brother as you always want, right? ”
"If you want power, this palace can give you a fief and make you king. You still don't care about the world, you have good clothes and food, and you can govern the humanistic people of your fiefdom. ”
"If the royal sister could tell her brother before, the brother should be grateful and thankful, but now, the brother can't accept the order, let alone be convinced. Although the mother concubine was not good to her brother in the past, she was the mother of her brother after all, and even more important to her brother than her father, the crown prince and even the royal sister. For example, they are all the heirs of the royal family, why can the prince and the royal brother rise to the top, and the royal sister can have golden branches and jade leaves, brocade clothes and jade food, but I am Zheqian, but I can only be humble and despicable, as cheap as ants? If my father and emperor have the slightest kindness to my mother and son, it should have been given to my brother a fief and his brother as the king, so that my brother could take his mother and concubine to the fief to enjoy his old age. It's a pity that my father never considered Chu Jing of my mother and son, and never really thought about finding a way out for my mother and son......"
"As the lord of a country, how can my father take care of the affairs of the harem!"
"Sister Huang is wrong. It's not that the father can't take care of it, but he doesn't want to take care of it. But as long as my father and the emperor care about my mother and son, my mother and concubine will not be humble and jealous in front of the queen every day, and my Zheqian will not be beaten to death by the imperial sister when I was a child, and I have to beg someone for medicine on my own. Yes, my father didn't take care of it, but he didn't want to pay attention to my mother and son, and I Yan Zheqian didn't want to stop, nor did I really want to tear up my face with the imperial sister, but I was bullied for too long, and I still felt angry, so I had to let myself break through the cage and live for myself vigorously. ”
Saying that, Chao Sihan suddenly smiled miserably, "So far, the ministers are unwilling to stop, and they can't do it, the 60,000 army is already on the side of the Qujiang River, always facing the battle, there are Great Zhou Jingwei in front, rear, and the guards of Tanglin are ambushed, yes, Weichen is in the middle, and there is no way to retreat." ”
This remark came into her ears, x she Yan Sihan had thought that Tanglin or the rest of the countries would once again put Tanglin into a crisis, but she never imagined that it would be this Yan Zheqian who made Tanglin fall into a crisis this time!
It's just that there is a Great Zhou Jingwei in front, so naturally it can't be entered, but although there are Donglin's guards in ambush in the rear, who says that they can't retreat? If you go down the Qujiang River, walk up a section, and then retreat, you can also avoid the Tanglin troops.
Sihan's face was very cold, and the gaze that fell on Zheqian's face was also gloomy and cold.
After a moment, she said in a low voice: "It's not that there is no way back, but you can go down the Qujiang River, walk up a section, and then retreat." In this way, although the road is long and crooked, it is natural to avoid the Tanglin guards and successfully return to Tanglin. ”
Zheqian's face did not change, and he still smiled melancholy, but it was only for a moment, and he completely eliminated the melancholy on his face as if he was playing a trick, and the whole person returned to his original indifferent and casual appearance again.
"This action, although it is acceptable, the imperial sister can save 60,000 troops with this method, but the life of the younger brother will die here immediately."
He spoke slowly.
Sihan raised the corner of his eye, "What do you mean by this?" ”
He smiled, "It's not interesting. However, when he was allied with the Tanglin Emperor, he was caught and poured some medicine, if the subordinate brother can help Tanglin complete the attack on the Great Zhou, the Tanglin Emperor will reward the younger brother, and even completely help the younger brother to capture Dongling, but if the subordinate brother has two hearts, then he can only die of poison. Compensation"
As he spoke, the gaze that fell on Sihan's face suddenly deepened, "Brother and ask Sister Huang, what does Sister Huang want to choose when comparing the lives of 60,000 people in Donglin with the lives of Brother Chen?" If you choose an army of 60,000 and retreat, your brother will be poisoned and buried here; If you choose your brother, then you have to help your brother wholeheartedly, break through the Great Zhou, and then go straight to Chujing. ”
The words were gentle and distant, but they were undisguised with a little aggressive questioning.
Sihan's eyes were cold, and his eyes stared at him deeply, but he didn't speak.
He seemed to see something, hooked his lips and smiled, nodded, and the smile on his face became more and more distant and casual, "I know, the imperial sister will never put the life of a person like her brother in her eyes, except for Ying Zheng is your imperial brother, the imperial sister will not protect the rest of the royal heirs in the imperial family at all, even if the younger brother respects you since childhood and retreats to you, the imperial sister will not care about the younger brother at all, let alone the slightest brotherhood." ”
As soon as these words fell, he said no more, and his slender fingers poured a cup of tea for himself from the wine jug in front of him, and then raised his head and drank it all.
Sihan stared at him with deep eyes, and when he put down the cup in his hand, she finally said in a deep voice: "As the eldest princess of Donglin, the mission of this palace in this life is to protect Tanglin and take revenge. Zheqian, there are some things that this palace does not take into account of you, but that you can't take care of it. You and this palace are both people who grew up in the deep palace, and you know what kind of deception is in the deep palace, plus the young emperor is still young, and the foundation in the court is also unstable, and your mother and concubine openly covet the throne, and they are openly and secretly tricky. In this way, how dare this palace really believe you, and how dare you really believe in your mother. ”
"If the imperial sister doesn't believe it, don't believe it, the younger brother now, I don't expect the imperial sister to believe in the younger brother, after all, the younger brother finally understands now, in this world, no one can really be good to you, or let you go, if you are not strong, then you can only be choked by others, and you will die at any time!"
As he spoke, he took his eyes off Si Han's face slightly, "It's useless to talk about the past, and I also heard that the imperial sister has just returned from outside Chujing, and she has been tired all the way, so the younger brother sent someone to take the imperial sister down to rest." Speaking of which, although the imperial sister is cold-blooded and ruthless, the younger brother is still not as ruthless as the imperial sister, and he is unwilling to kill them all. The imperial sister is also rest assured, the younger brother will not kill you, nor will he kill Ying Zheng, the younger brother will only go to get back everything that belongs to the younger brother, so that the imperial sister and Ying Zheng will be trapped in the palace again, and they will have no worries about food and clothing until they are old. ”
As soon as these words fell, he didn't care about Sihan's reaction, and his distant and silent gaze was about to sweep towards the guards standing in the corner of the hall, but before the words were spoken, Sihan had already spoken in a low voice, "Slow." ”
Zheqian subconsciously choked on his words, and looked at Sihan indifferently and casually.
Sihan's pupils shrank, and then he slowly got up and walked towards Zheqian.
The guards standing in the corner of the hall suddenly turned nervous, and immediately stepped forward one after another, blocking in front of Sihan.
Sihan's face sank.
Zheqian said: "The eldest princess is in front, how can you be so rude." Although the general will not be subject to the king's orders outside, and there is no need to listen too much to the court authorities, but after all, it is still not too rude. ”
As he spoke, his voice raised, "Don't retreat yet." ”
Several guards frowned, their faces were worried, and then they glanced at Sihan with a full guard, and then compromised, and turned around and retreated a few steps without saying a word.
Sihan continued to walk slowly, and finally stood in front of Zheqian's low table.
Zheqian's face did not fluctuate, he only raised his eyes slightly, and looked at Chao Sihan calmly, "What did the imperial sister mean when she came over suddenly?" ”
Sihan said lightly: "Who speaks to you, will you not be subject to the king's order?" ”
He said calmly: "The younger brother has come to his senses." He replied naturally.
Sihan said coldly: "This palace is still here now, you dare to say such a big rebellious remark, but you don't take this palace too seriously?" ”
The corners of his eyes were almost imperceptibly picked, the whole person was still calm and calm, and his expression was not complicated and undulating, he just smiled at Sihan slightly, and continued calmly: "It's all like this, does the imperial sister still plan to exert power in front of her younger brother?" If the imperial sister is not used to listening to certain words and wants to be angry with the younger brother, she also hopes that the imperial sister will see the reality before getting angry, this is the edge of the Qujiang River, not the majestic Tanglin court where you are always majestic. ”
Sihan's pupils shrank, and the coldness in her heart surged up more and more, and before all his last notes fell, she suddenly raised her hand and stepped forward and grabbed his neck resolutely.
In an instant, several guards behind him were startled, and they all drew their knives and stepped forward, but at this moment, Zheqian spoke out just right again, "Don't step forward!" Withdraw! ”
There was no anger in these words, but it was distant and gentle, but it was inexplicably mixed with a little prestige, forcing several Jingwei to retreat again.
He raised his eyes slightly, and his bottomless gaze met Sihan's eyes without evasion, "The imperial sister killed the mother of the courtier, and now, do you want to kill the courtier?" ”
As he spoke, his voice sank, as if he was sighing, and he seemed to be in inexplicable despair and sadness, "The imperial sister finally had murderous intentions again against her younger brother, right?" ”
"Zheqian! Although you are also the heir of the royal family, you also have Wei'er's respect and love, but don't think that with these, this palace will be taboo and dare not kill you! You have now led an army of 60,000 to become the lackeys of Tanglin, completely subverting the foundation of my Tanglin country, and even daring to let the country of Tanglin fall into the crisis of this world strife, you are so bold and reckless, do you think that this palace really dare not kill you? This palace has already given you a chance, and this palace has let you go again and again, but unfortunately you still suspect this palace because of the matter of the concubine, and wantonly destroy my Donglin fundamental, this palace will ask you, now do you regret it or not! As the heir of the Yan family, do you have the slightest guilt for the ancestors of my Yan family? ”
Zheqian's face sank, and his eyes became more and more distant.
After a while, he focused his gaze and met Sihan's eyes again, "What if you say that the younger brother doesn't regret it and doesn't feel guilty?" ”
Sihan's heart fluttered, and the hand holding his neck became harder and harder.
He seemed to be unconscious, full of calmness, not struggling or forgiving, just opened his thin lips, and continued to say slowly: "It is the Tanglin clan that owes the minister, and the imperial sister owes the minister, what does the minister have to regret?" What the younger brother is doing now is just to regain his dignity and take back everything that belongs to the younger brother, what is the fault of the younger brother? And what is there to feel guilty about? Moreover, once the Great Zhou is captured this time, the Tanglin Emperor will completely let Tanglin break away from his Donglin at the behest of his ministers, and no longer have to become his Dongling state, and he can also get the two border cities rewarded by Tanglin at one time, and millions of silver, so that the ministers and brothers can be regarded as helping Tanglin regardless of their previous suspicions. ”
"Are you crazy! Do you believe the words of the aventurine dog thief? Do you know that once you start fighting with the Great Zhou on the front foot, the Tanglin back foot will be able to reap the benefits of the fisherman, and all the Great Zhou and Tanglin will be in the bag......"
Sihan's voice was raised, and his tone became more and more cold, but before the words fell, Zheqian looked at her deeply, and said in a distant voice: "If this is the case, it is the life of the minister, and it is also the life of Tanglin." ”
"Unreasonable! Yan Zheqian, are you really crazy! ”
Sihan's heart became more and more angry, hating the anger that iron does not become steel. Thinking that in the past, this Zheqian was still obedient after all, but he didn't expect that he was so ignorant and stubborn now.
Her heart was surging, and her movements became more and more serious, but at this moment, Zheqian's breath was uneven and quietly stared at her, and she suddenly hooked her lips and smiled, "The imperial sister doesn't dare to kill her brother, and she can't kill her brother." ”
Sihan's expression fluctuated.
He continued: "As long as the subordinate brother is killed, the 60,000 army on the side of the Qujiang River will be defined as killing the enemy without hesitation. But if the younger brother does not die, the younger brother can also let them stay in place and wait, not in a hurry to attack the Great Zhou, and also take advantage of the situation to consume the Tanglin in the rear. Moreover, the younger brother was originally poisoned by the Tanglin Emperor, and the poison seems to be dangerous, if the Tanglin Emperor does not give the antidote to the younger brother, the younger brother is also easy to die of poison, so the imperial sister has to gamble? Just bet, live on the side of the Qujiang River for a few days, maybe within a few days, the courtier's brother suddenly felt unwell, died violently, and before he died, the minister's brother, will send you 60,000 army talismans, how about it? ”
"You dare to threaten this palace?"
Sihan stared at him coldly and asked gloomily.
He laughed a little miserably, "From childhood to adulthood, I didn't dare to threaten." The younger brother is just using the way of the younger brother to live for himself once, like a normal person, alive. Xu is imperial sister should also know that the younger brother has always revered the imperial sister, whether it was before or now, it is the same. Even, it was the imperial sister who killed the mother's concubine of the younger brother, and the younger brother didn't even think about killing the imperial sister, didn't he? ”
As soon as these words fell, the ghost giggled miserably.
Sihan's heart tightened when he heard this, his brows furrowed, and the hand on his neck finally unloaded his strength little by little.
When he took his hands off his neck, he didn't react, just looked at her quietly.
Sihan stood quietly in place, weighed it, and finally said in a low voice: "Stretch out your left hand." ”
He gradually took his gaze away from Sihan, but did not react.
Si Han stared at him, and he didn't plan to spend more weeks with him. Xuan, just reached over and pulled out his left hand, and then reached out to his wrist and began to take the pulse.
"Sister Huang thinks that the brother is lying to you when he talks about poisoning?"
He didn't refuse, the whole person sat peacefully, fifteen years old, should have been handsome, but this time this Zheqian, slightly immature face was covered with heaviness and maturity, that is, in those distant pupils, complex melancholy, it seemed to be full of wind and frost.
This time I looked at him quietly, and realized that this person was even more skinny than when he left Tanglin Kyoto last month, but when I first met him today, I was still angry and covered with compassion, so I didn't pay much attention to him.
"This palace is exploring, whether your poison has penetrated deep into the heart, and whether there is a way to solve it urgently." Sihan was silent for a moment, and explained in an extremely rare way.
When these words came into his ears, Zheqian was extremely stunned, and his distant and complex pupils suddenly became confused.
