Chapter 557 is unpredictable
As if reminiscent of King Shou's words, Xie Yaoguang was silent for a long time with tears in his eyes, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, raised his eyes and glanced at King Shou, then pursed his lips and said, "Then Your Highness just wait below." The retribution was all in you, how can you see me?"
As soon as the words fell, Xie Yaoguang immediately brushed his sleeves and turned to leave, leaving a lonely back in the eyes of King Shou. Seeing that Xie Yaoguang was about to disappear in front of him, King Shou couldn't help but shout Who are you.
Hearing this, Xie Yaoguang turned his head and looked at King Shou coldly, without speaking, but his lips and teeth opened and closed, as if he said that you will never know who I am.
Seeing him like this, King Shou's whole body collapsed to the ground, and the sun outside the prison was skewed through the window, and only a slight ray of mottled light and shadow was sprinkled on the opposite side, and the faint golden thread seemed to have captured all the afterglow, like a sharp blade, and pierced into King Shou's heart.
Closing his eyes and sighing, King Shou couldn't help but reach out to catch the sporadic afterglow, as if the sunlight he saw now would be the last time he had seen the rising sun in this life.
When Xie Yaoguang had already walked out of the Netherworld, Xie Yaoguang stopped and looked at the prison hidden in the darkness behind him, and suddenly shook his head and smiled.
"Lord, King Shou?" Qingluan, who came with him, asked.
"He deserved to end up once." Xie Yaoguang took the embroidered handkerchief, wiped his fingers slowly, and then said softly: "I thought he would repent, but I didn't expect him to not." In addition to loyalty and filial piety in this royal family, who can guarantee that they will not be corrupted by power? ”
As he spoke, Xie Yaoguang and Qingluan had already arrived at the place where the Xu family had been imprisoned before. Of course, because Xie Yaoguang spoke, Xu Tianyue was temporarily placed in a ventilated and small prison to live. There was once someone in the prison who intended to mistreat Xu Tianyue, but because Xiao Lingyu came in time, he prevented this from happening.
After hearing about this, Xie Yaoguang immediately sent a letter to Pei Yuan and asked him to take good care of Xu Tianyue. Pei Yuan was righteous and agreed to Xie Yaoguang's request without asking too much, and properly placed Xu Tianyue.
The person who came at first sight was Xie Yaoguang, and Xu Tianyue seemed to have resisted, but he couldn't defeat Qingluan, so he could only be at the mercy of Xie Yaoguang.
"Are you ready to explain your business?" Xie Yaoguang looked at Xu Tianyue, who was in a coma in front of him, and said softly.
"It's taken care of, and you can send them away at any time."
Hearing this, Xie Yaoguang nodded, patted Qingluan on the shoulder with a smile in his eyes, and said in a soft tone, "It's hard for you this time." Luan'er, you let the stingers go for me, and you must escort them away safely on this trip. ”
"Whoa."
As soon as the words fell, Pei Yuan arranged for his subordinates to urge Xie Yaoguang to leave quickly, saying that the people from the palace must go back to meet His Majesty earlier.
As for King Shou at this time, after Xie Yaoguang left, he curled up in the corner and sat with his knees hugged, looking at the mottled light and shadow on the ground that were shrinking smaller and smaller with a frightened face, and suddenly laughed out loud again, laughing with tears in his eyes, and for a while people didn't know whether he was sad or happy.
recalled the first half of his radiant life, when he did not call for wind and rain in the court. Obviously, he was only one step away from that supreme position, but he was interrupted by Xie Yaoguang and Ye Linchen Shengsheng, who were born out of nowhere. It is impossible for him to submit to Ye Linchen's knees and be a minister.
As he reminisced, there was another noise outside the cell door. Shou Wang looked up tiredly, he didn't hear what the chamberlain said, he only knew that there were three things in front of him, waiting for his choice.
The news of King Shou's suicide in prison reached Xie Yaoguang's ears as soon as possible, and Ye Linchen was also in Xie's house. After the two glanced at each other, Xie Yaoguang nodded and waved his hand to let the subordinates who came to report the news step back. Although he said that he had met the palace attendant in prison that day, Xie Yaoguang never thought that that person would be sent by Emperor Li to give wine.
In the final analysis, King Shou is right, Emperor Li has always been a very cold person. Back then, he could give his son and teacher without hesitation, but now even if he gives another son Ye to death, it is nothing. After all, no one can compare to the stability of power in his hands.
Thinking of this, Xie Yaoguang sighed with emotion, "King Shou's fate is really embarrassing. I don't know how His Majesty will feel when he finds out. ”
"My father has always been kind to King Shou and is slender, I tell you the truth, in fact, King Shou has the means and ability, and he is also the most optimistic heir of his father." Saying that, Ye Linchen got up and stood in front of the fence and looked at the plum blossoms blooming in the spring cold, and his tone was soft, "But in the end, it still can't compare to the cold heart of my father." In my opinion, my father may not be sad for a long time. ”
As he spoke, Ling Hai jumped down in the air and landed steadily on Xie Yao's bare arm, reached out and touched Ling Hai's feathers, took a letter from his foot, and after glancing at it, Xie Yaoguang's eyes suddenly gathered a trace of fierceness.
"Misty? What's wrong? Seeing that Xie Yaoguang's expression was different, Ye Linchen asked out loud.
Putting the letterhead in his sleeve, Xie Yaoguang raised his lips and laughed coldly, "The two brothers of the Su family are missing. But rest assured, Your Highness, my men have pursued them with all their might, and they will not be allowed to take advantage of the opportunity. ”
At present, Xie's house is peaceful, but the palace may not be peaceful, and as soon as the news of King Shou's death reached the palace, Emperor Li was furious. What made Emperor Li angry was not King Shou's self-judgment, but because King Shou refused to drink the poisoned wine, but instead fell to death in prison and left a bloody note, taking all the charges for himself.
Under the enrage, Emperor Li immediately ordered to drive the prison, who would have thought that on the way out of the palace, he would actually meet Empress Xu, who desperately escaped from the cold palace after hearing the news of the death of King Shou, and stopped the assassin. Fortunately, the Rong family, who had been deposed for many days, saved the Li Emperor from the disaster with his body blocking the sword, and the angry Li Emperor hugged the Rong family covered in blood and sobbed. Immediately abolished Empress Xu's title and put her in prison for strict supervision, as for the Xu family, who was originally imprisoned in prison, was even more panicked when she heard the news.
As soon as the decree of Emperor Li to kill Xu and behead the Xu family was issued, the courtiers who were originally good friends with the Xu family were all panicked. Fortunately, after a few days, I didn't see the meaning of Emperor Li sitting again, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. In the end, although there were only 30 people who were judged to be the same party as King Shou, and there were only three people above the third rank, it was enough to cause a lot of turmoil in the court.
As for the case of Yong Wang Luan, who plotted a rebellion with King Shou, he was also sentenced to beheading, and after the investigation of the Criminal Department, it was verified that Yong Wang Luan had privately made military armor, privately recruited sergeants, and other crimes were all conclusive evidence, and the crime was unforgivable. In anger, Emperor Li, despite the opposition of the royal family, divided the whole family of King Yong and beheaded him.
This was the first time in the Great Calendar that two imperial relatives had been executed at the same time since the rebellion of King Qin.
The most surprising thing is that the Rong family, who blocked the sword for Emperor Li, was abolished a few years after the throne of the concubine was abolished, because he blocked the sword for Emperor Li, and was able to be buried in the imperial tomb in accordance with the regulations of the concubine.
