After the concubine confessed the three sins of her own edict, Guo Qi nodded again and again. This is nominally a guilty edict, but in fact, it not only refutes the three sins proposed by Xue Qixi, but also reminds everyone that she is His Majesty's wife and the descendant of Ziyigong.

What's more, she has the crown prince ordained by His Majesty under her knees, even if Her Majesty does not have many concubines, she is not without a successor.

In this way, it has completely become an internal supervisor Xue Qixi and King Li are in cahoots, intending to rebel.

Guo Qi arranged the matter, but he himself was not in a hurry to leave, and he seemed to have something to say. Nian Yun saw it and asked, "Do you have something?" ”

Guo Qi was silent for a moment before he said, "Niangniang asked Guo Yuma to investigate the matter before...... There are already eyebrows. ”

Nian Yun turned around: "You mean Xue Qixi's matter?" ”

Guo Qi nodded, "I have found out what happened to Xue Qixi before he came to Chang'an." He was not originally from Qingzhou, his original name was Renzhen, in fact, his ancestral home was in Youzhou, and he later followed a colleague of his father to Qingzhou. ”

Nian Yun vaguely remembered that name, on the day he came to the East Palace, she felt that Renzhen's name was too civil, so she followed the name of Liufu and named him Qixi.

From Guo Qi's narration, she slowly learned that Renzhen's father was originally a local minor official in Youzhou, and Zhenyuan was implicated by a friend in the third year and was convicted of raiding his home, and the whole family was punished as slaves, and the only young Renzhen was able to escape.

After escaping, Renzhen begged on the streets, and was later accepted as a righteous son by one of his father's colleagues, who was later transferred to Qingzhou, and the young Renzhen followed. But after a few years of good life, in the seventh year of Zhenyuan, the same nightmare befell his adoptive father's house again, and the young Renzhen once again experienced the destruction of his family, and wandered around until he was fifteen years old and came to Chang'an.

Fate is rough enough.

Guo Qi said: "I also found out that his adoptive father has a daughter under his knees, who is one year older than him, and he is also a childhood sweetheart." Back then, it was said that the family also intended to recruit him as a son-in-law......"

If it's just a girl I admired when I was a teenager, it's naturally not worth talking about. Nian Yun keenly noticed that there were still words in Guo Qi's words, "That woman is still alive?" ”

Guo Qi shook his head, "It's dead." However, Niangniang should recognize her, Xue is Renzhen's family name, and his adoptive father's surname is Xu. ”

Nian Yun was shocked, looked at Guo Qi in amazement, and a teacup in his hand shattered, "Xu Huiniang? ”

Guo Qi's eyes flickered slightly, but Nian Yun could clearly see that he acquiesced to this answer.

It turned out to be because of Hui Niang! The question that had been haunting her heart was suddenly solved, and he rushed all the way from Qingzhou to the capital because he found out that Hui Niang was in the capital. Maybe he finally found out that she had entered the East Palace, so he did not hesitate to clean himself and followed her into the East Palace. He rebelled and killed the king, all because of Hui Niang.

Maybe he didn't know Hui Niang's identity in the East Palace at first, otherwise, he should have rescued her regardless of the danger, instead of burying her himself.

This can also explain why Qixi chose Li Yun, Li Yun is the son of Hui Niang.

But if he had always been affectionate to Hui Niang, he should not have chosen to be pure in the first place.

Moreover, Hui Niang finally died in her hands, and even she instructed him to set fire to Hui Niang with her own hands, and the person Qixi hated the most should be her. But over the years, she can clearly feel that Qixi treats her insincerely, otherwise, how could she be so stupid that she can't see that she has always trusted him?

Nian Yun helped his forehead with some difficulty, and at this time, he had already heard the shouts of killing outside.

Guo Qi stood silently aside, and from his expression, Nianyun had already guessed that a head-to-head confrontation had broken out between the Shence Army and the Military Department.

However, although the military power of the Shence Army is controlled by Xue Qixi, every soldier is not an unconscious puppet. The spiritual baptism they have received since childhood is loyal to the monarch and patriotism, but at this time, they have a conflict with the military department belonging to the imperial court, and it is impossible not to have doubts.

As long as the third brother and the others find a way to make everyone believe that Xue Qixi is an inner prisoner, and what he is leading is a rebellion, the Shence Army will definitely collapse from within.

Time seemed to be stretched out at this moment, and the shouting of killing seemed to be unable to cover the leakage of the time, and Nian Yun almost suspected that the ticking sound was the desolation.

Lunch was brought in, and Nianyun didn't move.

I don't know how long it took for someone to come in again, so she moved her stiff body and asked, "What's going on outside?" ”

The person who came was wearing armor and a helmet, stretched out his hand to wipe the blood on his face, and knelt down on one knee and replied: "Qiqi Guifei Niangniang, the rebels have been defeated, and King Li has defeated himself ......"

The army is defeated, he should judge himself, so that he can save half of the face of being a prince. If he still wants to live in secret, he will regret coming into this world. Last time, he had already killed Ning Er, if she continued to make the same mistake, she would have been a concubine for more than ten years!

Nian Yun snorted coldly and asked, "What about Xue Qixi?" ”

The man was resolute against the soldiers, but he was a little distracted. After a while, he sneered and said, "Xue ...... Xue Qixi was besieged on top of the city tower and held ...... hostage Kidnapped Princess Taihe ......"

Nian Yun almost jumped. She had previously designed her and Heng'er to escape, out of the control of the Shence Army, but in a hurry, she forgot that she was still in the Penglai Palace!

It's just despicable and shameless, he actually held it hostage!

Nian Yun was furious, stretched out his hand and pulled out the long sword from Guo Qi's waist and ran out.

Guo Qi didn't expect her to rush like this, and hurriedly caught up: "Niangniang, it's dangerous outside, and it's easy to accidentally injure ......"

Nian Yun didn't hear it at all.

The inner palace finally restored a little order, the snow on the bluestone paved road had been removed, and Nian Yun ran all the way to the front of Hanyuan Palace.

The closer you get to Danfeng Gate, the more you can hear the earth-shattering shouts outside.

"Eunuch! Gelding! ”

"Let go of the princess!"

Nian Yun looked up at the towering city tower, which was the highest point of Daming Palace. Standing there, in front, the scenery of Chang'an City can be seen in full view, and when you look back, the majesty of the entire imperial city is only at your feet.

Many people who have competed for the throne in the past are just willing to give everything for this moment, the glory of the world under their feet, and for this majestic scenery.

She took a deep breath, lifted her skirt, and walked up to the castle tower step by step.

The black-robed Shence army outside the city wall all lost their armor, and the red cloak of the army guards was still proud in the wind.

The snow has stopped, but the entire Chang'an City is still a vast white, and the heaven and earth are all plain, burying all the withering and depression. Against the backdrop of the torches, the ice, snow and twilight are all pale blue, enveloping the imperial capital, and the blue mountains in the distance resemble an ink painting with too much ink.

Nian Yun appeared on the city tower at this moment, and the wind blew her dark purple gorgeous palace robe, and the lotus pattern on her skirt was fully supported by the wind.

The concubine appeared, she was still graceful and gorgeous, and the guards under the city seemed to have found the backbone of the heart again, and they cheered.

"Mother!"

Wrapped in a lake-colored cloak, Luo Luo rushed to her side and hugged her tightly.

Nian Yun looked her up and down several times, "It's okay if you're fine." ”

"It's fine," she shook her head vigorously, "actually...... Father-in-law Xue didn't want to blackmail Luoluo, he just wanted to see his mother, so he ......"

Nian Yun was a little surprised, but she also wanted to ask him a few words. She whispered a few words of reassurance to Luoluo, and asked Guo Qi behind her to take her down.

Ten paces away, the man in the ochre-colored prison uniform stood silently, this time, instead of bowing his head to her commands as he had done before, he stood up straight, and thus appeared taller and thinner than before. It was as if it were just a wooden cross-shaped brace holding up the clothes and then being filled with the wind. The dark cloak was like a flag, flying in the wind, and the hunt sounded.

"Qixi, this palace has never treated you lightly."

"Niangniang's kindness, benevolence in this life, remembered."

On the day she first came to the East Palace, she ordered the doctor to treat him and take medicine, and let him recuperate for a long time before assigning him to the ministry, knowing that he was a Huiren, and since then pork has never appeared in the food he has been given.

She treated him sincerely, and in the past 20 years, he has treated her sincerely.

It's just that why does she have to be so sincere? She can obviously be like a harsh and vicious housewife, so that when he finally finds out the truth and understands that she killed Hui Niang, he can hate her with all his heart!

Not only did she cause Huiniang to fall out of favor and go crazy, she even let her kill her father-in-law's daughter with her own hands, he once promised to take good care of her for her father-in-law!

He couldn't forget the day his father-in-law was taken away, the men, women and children of the Xu family were all detained, and his father-in-law desperately stopped the officers and soldiers and let him escape. My father-in-law said, if you have a chance in the future, please go to Chang'an to find Xiaohui and take care of me for one or two.

Because he was not a descendant of the Xu family, he was not hunted down. Later, he went to Chang'an, and finally inquired that Xiaohui might have entered the East Palace, but the East Palace was not something he could enter if he wanted to.

He inquired that the young county lady was in charge of the East Palace at that time, and thought about his father-in-law's entrustment, so he cleaned himself and found an opportunity to make trouble in front of the county lady, and finally entered the East Palace smoothly.

In his heart, Xiaohui is a close friend who grew up together, the only bloodline of his father-in-law, and his promise to his father-in-law.

It's just that there are facts that he knew a little too late.

Or perhaps, when he saw the woman who was almost insane in the closed courtyard, he had vaguely guessed her identity, but he did not dare to admit that he would rather destroy than see the once beautiful woman become such an ugly and broken shell.

The dancing figure in red, with gray hair and a skeletal face, had pierced his eyes and pierced his heart for many years to come.

Xiao Hui may have recognized him at that time, right? She didn't say anything, but she bit him hard, leaving the mark on his hand for the rest of his life, and she shed a tear on the back of his hand.

The second time she saw him, she took the fire breaker from his hand and burned it all. From then on, there were no more people he promised to take care of, and there was no reason for him to enter the East Palace. So, he wanted to avenge it.

Later, it was Li Chun who ordered the old Xue father-in-law to secretly investigate her affairs, and he slowly learned the ins and outs, and he began to hate Li Chun, but the person he hated soon became the emperor.
