(Cat flutter Chinese) *

In the middle of the night, in the dark and deep prison, there was a sound of messy footsteps. Several jailers escorted a female prisoner as she walked in the direction of leaving the cell.

The female prisoner was about forty or fifty years old, described as languishing and haggard, with unkempt hair, a long scar on the left side of her face, and layers of bandages wrapped around one wrist, which was Su Mei'er. At this moment, she looked very weak, her feet seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and she could barely walk forward with two jailers holding her arms.

The group walked through the corridor in the middle of the cell, out of the corridor outside, and through several flights of stairs to the upper level where the officials in charge of the cell were on duty.

The jailers took Su Mei'er and stopped in front of a room.

"Tell your lord, the prisoner Su Mei'er brought it."

"Bring it on." As soon as the inside agreed, the jailer escorted Su Meier into the room. As soon as the jailers let go, Su Mei'er sat down.

I saw that Helan Chu was sitting in the hall, and officials at all levels lined up on both sides with solemn expressions.

"Stand down."

Helan Chu commanded, and the officials and jailers bowed their waists and reluctantly withdrew from the room.

The door was closed, and only Helan Chu and Su Mei'er were left in the room. Helan Chu looked indifferent, and Su Mei'er seemed to have a soul that was not in her body.

"What do you want to look for?" Helan Chu asked without any emotion.

Su Mei'er, who was sitting weakly on the ground, slowly turned her head and showed a sarcastic expression, "Maybe you will be happier if you leave it to you to do it yourself?" ”

She was convinced that Zuo Ying had been poisoned to death, and instead of letting the enemy do it, she cut off her head in the name of justice. It's better for her to make a decision for herself!

Helan Chu said coldly: "You are the great rebel who assassinated His Majesty, you don't need to ask for the guilt in person, and the court will also sentence you to death according to the law." ”

Su Mei'er didn't seem to feel the slightest fear, she looked directly at Helan Chu's cold eyes. His eyes were full of bloodshot with resentment, "I'm not a rebel, the knife in my hand." Not a stab to Your Majesty! You know this best! Although, it's not a pity for her to die, it's just ...... I didn't expect that in the end, I would do you such a great favor! I've become your scapegoat! ”

Speaking of this, Su Mei'er was invaded by a strong sarcasm she felt, and she laughed bitterly. Laughing horribly and hoarsely.

Helan Chu waited for her to calm down before saying, "If you answer a question truthfully, this seat can protect you from death." ”

Su Mei'er's eyes froze, and after a moment, she sneered: "Do you want to know where the real He Suji's bones are now?" Seeing that Helan Chu was silent. There was a hint of smugness in her tone, "Soon after we were taken back to the desert, we were left to fend for ourselves. We could not cross the desert and return home, so we had to live incognito and support each other until she died. In this world, I am the only one who knows where she is buried. ”

"If you say it, I'll keep you safe." Helan Chu's eyes couldn't help but show a trace of imperceptible eagerness.

Su Meier sneered. "Do you think I'm going to take your word for it? If you don't kill me, what will you use to give the people of the world an explanation? What do you use to show your loyalty and patriotism, and your deep sorrow for Your Majesty's death? ”

She suddenly raised her head and laughed, pointed to the sky, and said in a sarcastic tone: "He Suji, He Suji, you used to boast in front of me about how smart and clever your children were, and how ambitious your youth was, you must not know that his intelligence and cleverness were all used to usurp power and seize power; Helan Chong, Helan Chong. You always say that a good man should aim to stabilize the country and calm the world, but you must not have thought that the person whose hands are stained with the blood of innocents and disturbs the peace of the world is your son! …… And you, He Lanying! You are so stupid as to care about the feelings of a wolf-hearted beast, and ignore the chance that such a blow will even destroy him, thinking that he will be grateful to Dade and use it for you?! Hahahaha...... You are here today, purely at your own fault! ”

Su Mei'er's previous paragraphs, Helan Chu didn't care at all, he was used to being thought so by the world. However, in the end, when she mentioned He Lanying's words, the question that had been suppressed in his heart came back to his heart - what was she summoning Su Meier for at that time? Why did she give up this great opportunity to hit him, and even rushed to the blade in order to save him? If she hadn't done this at that time, he would be the one lying on the hospital bed now, whose life and death are uncertain. All this, interpreted by the way of thinking of the He Lanying in the past, could not convince him at all.

"What did Your Majesty say to you at that time?" Helan Chu asked in a steady voice.

"You don't know yet?" Su Mei'er lowered her head and looked at Helan Chu. She suddenly felt that if Helan Chu still had a trace of conscience when she said the conversation between them, she would definitely feel guilty. If she could see that he regretted something that was already irreparable, it might be the last thing she could see before she was temporary.

The corners of her mouth curled up with a smirk, recalling the conversation......

"Since Your Majesty already knows that the identity of the slave and maid is fake, why don't you directly arrest and ask for the crime, but want to talk to the slave and maid here?"

In the past 20 years, surviving under the roof of aliens has made Su Meier well versed in the way of seeing small things and observing words and colors.

Zuo Ying, who was sitting on the chief, smiled slightly. She likes to be straightforward, open,

"I see that you have saved the car and made meritorious contributions, and I can give you a chance, a chance for you to enjoy a lifetime of glory and wealth as a princess." Zuo Ying said solemnly: "The condition is that you refuse the canonization of Mrs. Decree and voluntarily propose to come to Sanqingguan in the palace and become a female Taoist priest who is dedicated to cultivation." ”

"Your Majesty wants the slave to play the princess for the rest of her life? Why is that? Su Mei'er looked at Zuo Ying in confusion, "The slave maid thinks that the blatant frustration of a national thief like Helan Chu is also something His Majesty wants to see." ”

Zuo Ying didn't show any expression.

Helan Chu was hit, perhaps a good thing; But if he was only provoked and lost his mind, it would be a complete disaster. If Su Meier is allowed to stage a farce in front of the Manchu civil and military forces, and openly declares that Helan Chu was just played by a liar, and his long-cherished wish will not only come to naught, but his reunion with his mother, who has been separated for 20 years, will also become a joke of the Manchu civil and military in an instant, and I am afraid that no one can control the consequences. At that time, Helan Chu is likely to become more and more vicious, indifferent, and reckless like a wounded beast.

Zuo Ying knows very well that only when Helan Chu is calm, rational, scruples and perseverance, can she talk to him, negotiate with him, and he will have the space and time to survive and grow.

"Su Mei'er, I am also a person who has lost her mother since she was a child, and has been told that her mother went to a far away place." Zuo Ying said in a deep voice. In this regard, she is indeed similar to He Lanying, "I know that the expectation of reuniting with my mother cannot disappear with the passage of time; I can also imagine the pain of being snuffed out once I thought my wish had come true. I don't want to inflict this pain on someone else one day. ”

"Your Majesty," Su Mei'er felt that Zuo Ying was simply unreasonable, "He monopolizes military and political power, he covers the sky with one hand, and he regards His Majesty as a puppet!" How many times have you taken Your Majesty's feelings into consideration? ”

Regarding this point, Zuo Ying really has to say that he took care of it, and he also knew that only the dead would no longer value the position, so he had to help her again and again.

However, after experiencing some things, she seems to have a faint feeling that he is not a vicious and greedy person. What he did was indeed unforgivable, but people couldn't help but want to understand his hidden inner world. Moreover, more importantly, no matter what kind of person he is, he still has an irreplaceable role in the imperial court.

"I've made up my mind." Zuo Ying decided to terminate this meaningless dialogue, and it is impossible to talk to people who have no common interests, "I will give you a glass of imperial wine, if you drink it, it means that the agreement has been reached." If you are not willing, I will only punish your sins according to the law, and then you will have nothing. ”

……

When Su Mei'er said this, Helan Chu finally understood what the purpose of the glass of wine he mistakenly thought was poisonous. He couldn't believe that Zuo Ying had made such a negotiation with Su Meier in order to protect his emotions and face. Even if she is well versed in the way of yin and yang as a monarch, and the feelings she shares may not be completely from the heart, she can know what to do and what not to do, and in the face of such a "great opportunity", it is already commendable to let go of personal grievances and focus on the overall situation.

Not to mention......

"She also blocked the knife with her body and saved you!" Su Mei'er sneered a few times, "She died because of you." You didn't kill her with your own hands, not because you didn't want to kill her, but because you didn't have time to do it yet. And after she dies to save you, you will have to step on her corpse and ascend to the throne that belongs to her! I also think that this is a great opportunity that God has given and cannot be missed! Speaking of this, Su Meier laughed out loud again.

Her words made Helan Chu can't help but recall the scene when Zuo Ying pounced on the sharp blade that stabbed her, as well as the scene when she was poisoned and fainted on the ground. He still vividly remembered how he picked her up and rushed her to the hospital. It wasn't until that moment that he suddenly discovered that she had already known how to use all kinds of interests to control her fate and situation, and had repeatedly easily avoided the scourge of killing, she was not invulnerable and invulnerable, she was so slender and weak, any ordinary person with a knife could make her fall, and she might never wake up again. Her eyes were closed, her face was purple, and her whole body was paralyzed, and it was unbearable to imagine that she would be so unconscious and motionless forever, and finally lie alone in the coffin, and then buried deep in the cold loess.

He seems to be more and more unable to judge his intolerance for Zuo Ying and his attachment to the throne, which is private feelings, which is public heart, and which one is blinded.

"However, you will not care about this, you will do whatever it takes to achieve your ends, and your conscience has long been lost! You finally got your wish and ascended to the throne of God, and I will soon be able to go to the bottom of Jiuquan and say hello to Helan Chong and He Suji! ……”

In Su Mei'er's swearing and sarcasm, Helan Chu stepped out of the room, walked out of the prison, and disappeared into the darkness before the end of the night.
