Chapter XXXIII
Ronghua's fingertips tapped lightly on the chessboard, shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”
Mingzhou looked light, raised the teacup and took a sip gently.
"Hongjing might as well talk about it."
Mingzhou put down the teacup: "The Third Highness is full of troubles for the Hu family." ”
"How?"
"The third lady of the long room and the eldest lady of the third room and the two slaves and maids who are serving around them will all be beheaded," Mingzhou paused, "The servants and servants who are serving His Royal Highness Lan Ting will also be beheaded, and the rest of them will be exiled to the wild land one day, and this matter will be announced to the world." ”
Rong Shen has given the Hu family a way back, but the Hu family may not be able to get up again, at least within three generations, and I don't know if those female dependents can survive in that wild place.
"Where's the horse?"
Mingzhou picked up the sunspots and put them back in the chess basket, tilting his head slightly: "Master Horse?" ”
Mingzhou smiled shallowly, "Princess Lanting and Master Ma are royal relatives, who dares to move without the permission of today?" Since there is nothing to do, the Third Highness has sent Her Royal Highness the Princess and the concubine back to the Princess Mansion in Shangjing. ”
Ronghua's face did not change, "So the second son? ”
"Your Highness is willing to appreciate the face of the ministers, and go to the execution ground at three o'clock in the afternoon the day after tomorrow?"
"A look? It's not a grand event, and the palace is afraid that it will pollute the eyes of the palace! Ronghua rejected Mingzhou.
"Your Highness." Mingzhou called softly.
"Is there anything else to do?"
Mingzhou had already packed up all the sunspots, and the next thing was Baizi, who twisted them one by one and put them into another chess basket.
"Is Your Highness sure?"
"Hmm." Ronghua had a calm face with some displeasure, to be honest, she didn't want to get entangled with Mingzhou in this matter.
Mingzhou quickly packed up the white son, "The minister sent by the minister of the Qin mission that day will also arrive at that time, maybe he will go to the execution ground to have a look." ”
Ronghua finally lifted her spirits, she looked at Mingzhou coldly for a long time before saying, "Okay." ”
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Mingzhou pushed the chess basket to Ronghua and smiled at her, "Your Highness, it's all packed." ”
Rong Hua suddenly let out a sigh of anger, "Okay, then dare to ask the second prince and sister if it's okay?" ”
"Very good, His Royal Highness Lan Ting is in good health, and he is preparing his luggage with Master Ma to go back to Beijing."
Ronghua thoughtfully: "They don't stay to watch the execution ground? ”
Mingzhou shook his head, "Don't stay, according to the wishes of His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness Lan Ting will return to Beijing overnight tonight." ”
"Didn't you say something?"
"No, since His Royal Highness Lan Ting woke up, he hasn't even come out of Guanyun Pavilion."
Ronghua snorted: "It's really ruthless and unjust!" Ronghua glanced at Mingzhou, "Do you think?" His parents and relatives are about to die, and the exiled are exiled, but he followed the imperial sister back to Beijing to enjoy happiness without heart or lungs! ”
Mingzhou looked at Ronghua lightly: "Then what if it's Your Highness?" ”
Rong Hua smiled: "Second son, this palace finds that you always like to ask this palace some impossible things. ”
"This palace will never fall into such a situation! If the loser is still breathing, this palace will not be interested! ”
"Sending off!"
Mingzhou didn't even close the door, and the mocking face of Ronghua in front of him lingered.
What could he do? Is it revolting? The sister-in-law of a mother's compatriot planned to endanger his wife, causing her to have a miscarriage, and the witchcraft made the Hu family bear the charge of murdering the two highnesses. There is no right or wrong in this world, there is only cause and effect, and the cause of the Hu family will eventually become today's result.
Mingzhou sighed slightly, and left.
Rong Hua in the inner room was half leaning on the red satin double-sided embroidered peony blossom pillow, his eyes closed.
"Your Highness, the kitchenette has brought a soup, would you like to try it?"
"Withdrawn, you are not allowed to enter without an order from the palace."
"Yes."
Forget it, once this matter is over, it is the right thing for her to go to Yuyuan as soon as possible. Speaking of which, the queen mother hasn't replied to her yet, something happened in Beijing?
At noon the next day, Ronghua sat behind the screen on the execution ground with the curtain.
The execution ground was crowded with people, talking a lot, pointing at the rows of Hu family members kneeling on the execution ground, and they couldn't help but look at them excitedly with fear on their faces.
Ronghua turned his head to Mingzhou and pointed at those people and said, "Second son, look at these people, it's ridiculous!" ”
"It's just human nature." Mingzhou replied lightly.
"Human nature?" Ronghua sneered, "Judging from this palace, it's a group of fools!" Ugly and dirty inside! Noisy like a frog! ”
"Seriously, Hongu really doesn't understand how you can smile so gently at these people once or twice?"
Mingzhou lowered his eyes, "Weichen is the king and the people in this life, the people, and the nature of sex is good, and His Royal Highness can't see it." ”
Ronghua changed the subject: "By the way, the second son won't be in the palace, right?" The hour is almost here, why haven't you seen anyone yet? ”
"Your Highness, don't be impatient."
Soon, three o'clock in the afternoon arrived. Rong Shen sat in the high hall, took out a token and threw it to the ground, and his phoenix eyes condensed: "Execution." ”
The first to be dragged up were the third lady of the long room and the eldest lady of the third room.
The wooden sign behind them was pulled away, and the executioner drank a jar of spirits, sprayed it on the broadsword in one gulp, babbling and babbling, and before they could beg for mercy, he slashed down, and immediately blood splattered, and the two heads rolled down.
Ronghua's fingertips rested on the Taishi chair, quietly looking at the blood in front of him through the screen, and he couldn't say anything on his face, while Mingzhou on the side closed his eyes and pursed his lips, his face unbearable.
Ronghua suddenly reached out and grabbed Mingzhou's arm, and said calmly: "Is it good for Mingzhou to do one thing for this palace?" ”
"What?"
"Go to the county jail."
Mingzhou looked sideways at Ronghua, Ronghua didn't look at him, he looked straight ahead, from his point of view, he could only see half of Ronghua's face, white and flawless.
"Who are you going to save?"
"Hu Luan."
Mingzhou was slightly silent, "You like him?" ”
Rong Hua suddenly smiled, turned his face sideways to look at Mingzhou, and smiled mockingly: "This palace has lived for so many years, and I never know what I like." ”
Mingzhou got up and saluted Ronghua: "Weichen will go." ”
Ronghua nodded, and after Mingzhou left, she put her eyes back on the execution ground, and now it was the turn of the two Hu family ladies to serve beside them.
Bloody and dirty, the scene was filled with a disgusting smell for a while, but Ronghua didn't seem to smell it, holding the teacup and sipping gently.
The knife is sharpened extremely sharply, like cutting a watermelon, one by one, crisp and neat. It was the turn of the people who served by Rong Xu's side, and Rong Hua's steady platform was finally shattered.
Ronghua looked coldly at the old man who was kneeling with his hands tied and his knees together, the teacup in his hand was tightly pinched by Ronghua, and when the knife in the hand of the nephew fell again, Ronghua's hand was released, and the teacup fell to the ground, shattered into porcelain pieces, and made an abrupt sound.
"Wait."
Ronghua shouted not mercilessly.
Rong Shen looked at Rong Hua with some impatience, "Imperial sister, are you unwell?" ”
"No," Rong Hua stood up and saluted Rong Shen, "Brother Huang, Sister Huang wants to say a word to this grandmother." ”
Ronghua stretched out his hand and pointed at Mama Guo, who raised her eyes and glanced at Ronghua but quickly lowered her head.
Rong Shen didn't agree, and the phoenix eyes stared at Rong Hua gloomily.
Ronghua was not afraid at all, and looked back lightly. After a while, Rong Hua caged his sleeves and bowed his head, "Since this is the case, the imperial sister will acquiesce to the imperial brother." ”
Ronghua walked in front of Mama Guo, squatted down, and forced Mama Guo to look at her, "Mama, do you regret it?" ”
"No, I didn't."
Ronghua nodded, stood up, and slowly returned to his position, naturally passing by other people, those endless cries for help Ronghuaquan did not hear.
Ronghua supported her cheeks with one hand, and she had to admit that her only kindness was rejected. Ronghua saw with his own eyes the willingness in his mother's eyes, as well as gratitude.
Rong Hua lowered her eyes, Rong Shen ordered the execution to continue, and she rarely raised her sleeves to cover her vision when the big knife in her executioner fell.
Soon it was another group of people, and Ronghua caught a person who was carrying the corpse down, and ordered: "That mother-in-law found another piece of land to bury it." ”
"Yes." He naturally saw this person just now, and he was talking to someone. I just don't know why I didn't save her?
After another quarter of an hour, the big knife in the executioner's hand could finally stop.
Ronghua swept around with interest, Mingzhou scolded her! said that the minister of the Qin mission would also come, but she didn't see a single one!
The soldiers at the execution site began to clear the scene, driving out all the people who were watching the excitement.
Rong Shen cleaned up, quickly walked down from the high platform and walked to Ronghua's side, looked at Ronghua still sitting there, and scolded unhappily: "Yumao, go back." ”
"Hmm." Rong Hua flicked his sleeves and stood up, turned his eyes to look at Qu Guang, who was following Rong Shen and shaking the dust in his hand, and asked in a clear voice: "Does Gonggong Qu know when this minister will meet with the palace and the imperial brother?" Or is this a plan to keep it a secret? ”
Qu Guangjiao smiled: "Naturally not, how could I hand over the holy decree to the two highnesses?" Let the two highnesses assist the ministers well. As for when? How do you know that a slave is a eunuch? ”
Assist? Rong Hua and Rong Shen glanced at each other.
"I see."
Rong Hua nodded, but he told Rong Shen that he wanted to go and relax.
Rong Shen rarely laughed: "The imperial sister is afraid? This palace still thinks that the royal sister is not afraid of heaven and earth? ”
Rong Hua opened his eyes and said perfunctorily: "Well, it's not good to come to this Zhanyan." "Ronghua's black heart brought Rong Xu eye medicine by the way.
Rong Shen didn't interfere with where Rong Hua went, but just sent a few people to follow Rong Hua well. Ronghua closed the curtain and nodded perfunctorily.
Ronghua and his entourage walked to a teahouse, Ronghua went in and asked for a tearoom, looking at those who were guarding the door, Ronghua pointed to one casually: "You go to the county government prison to find Lord Ming, and ask him to come over and have a cup of tea with me." ”
Mingzhou gentleman's six art names are crowned in Beijing, and the person who was selected by the glory point was also fortunate to hear the name of Mingzhou, so he naturally didn't think of anything, but really thought that the two of them were just learning tea art, but they didn't know these things.
Mingzhou was in the county government prison at the time when he heard the words of the messenger, smiled and then looked at the person next to him, "It seems that she still likes you." ”
The man said in a deep voice, "It is the honor of the sinners to be favored by His Highness. ”
