If it is said that Xiang Yeqi and Bo Zhaoxu's original intention, they don't mind Gu Yanchao making a move, so that the old emperor completely broke off the idea of forcibly whitewashing the concubine.

But the moment Gu Yanchao spoke, Xiang Yeyan felt that Gu Yanchao's words made him extremely uneasy.

Due to the occasion, Xiang Yeqi kept this suspicion in his heart.

"Gu Yanchao! Do you have proof? ”

The old emperor bluntly reprimanded Gu Yanchao's name, which shows that he was extremely angry. The crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason is too heavy, not to mention that the old emperor wants to erase the previous crime for her to posthumously seal, if it is really implemented, I am afraid that it is unknown whether the rumor concubine can have a place to be buried......

"The minister is a witness!"

Gu Yanchao had the courage of the ministers to admonish him, and he refuted the old emperor's nonsense: "A few days ago, the minister witnessed the rumor concubine Niangniang having a private meeting with people in the imperial garden, secretly discussing the internal affairs of the palace, and even sneakily handed over a letter. ”

He groaned in the heart of the night.

How could he Gu Yanchao know this? Could it really be that the rumor concubine is really colluding with the Hu people?

The old emperor leaned on the side of the bed like a collapsed mountain, and he didn't say anything for a long time, as if he was completely disappointed in the rumor, and as if the belief he had upheld for a long time in his heart collapsed, which was particularly ironic.

"I know, I know......" the old emperor muttered repeatedly.

He believed Gu Yanchao.

Gu Yanchao, a close minister, is so heavy that he only needs one sentence to persuade the old emperor to persuade the old emperor of the topic that he can't convince for a long time.

"It's me who is too confused, and mistakenly mistook Concubine Yu for a lover!" The old emperor let out a long sigh of grievance, raised his head and looked at Bo Zhaoxu, "Fourth, you can forget about today's incident, it is indeed that I am too confused and let you be wronged!" As for the corpse of this rumored concubine, it will be disposed of according to the law. ”

The corners of Gu Yanchao's mouth slightly hooked a curvature, and everything seemed to be pushed according to his thoughts: "The minister obeys the order." ”

In the midst of the smile, Xiang Yeqi felt a chill.

Inappropriate!

Xiang Yeyan suddenly figured out the deep meaning of Gu Yanchao's admonition, and it was difficult to speak, so he had to abruptly grab Bo Zhaoxu's wrist and muttered in a low voice: "My stomach hurts." ”

Her acting skills are sometimes good, sometimes not good.

At a glance, it was enough to see that her grievances with twisted eyebrows were disguised, but Bo Zhaoxu still realized the urgency of the disengagement in Xiang Yeqi's eyes, and used this as a reason to ask the emperor to resign: "Erchen retreats first." The sons and daughters have forgotten what happened today. ”

The old emperor was physically and mentally exhausted, and had no intention of interfering with Bo Zhaoxu's goings and stays, so he opened his mouth again and again, but in the end he still didn't say anything to keep him, and let the two leave.

As soon as Xiang Yeqi stepped out of the palace gate, he couldn't help but take a big step, for fear of missing anything, and when there were fewer palace people coming and going, Xiang Yeqi couldn't help but lift his clothes and trot towards the prison.

Bo Zhaoxu was a little more relaxed, and even slowed down to observe Xiang Yeqi's movements.

"He's trying to destroy the corpse......"

Xiang Yeqi ran anxiously for a while, and he didn't even speak so smoothly, and his wording couldn't catch up with the wording, and he said extremely briefly: "There is something wrong with this person!" Earlier, he protected Concubine Rue for no reason, but now he has fallen into the well again, I am afraid that in order to destroy the corpse and destroy the traces, he will put the charge of collaborating with the enemy on Concubine Rumore. ”

She also suddenly figured out the reason, Gu Yanchao's words were not for the old emperor at all, but for those who knew about them! And the most suitable person to bear these charges for him is, of course, a person like Concubine Xiang who can't speak anymore......

The Heavenly Prison is different from other prisons, and it is called the Heavenly Prison because it is located in the palace and set up under the Son of Heaven, so it is easier to find this location than other prisons.

Xiang Yeqi took Bo Zhaoxu to the outside of the prison, and met Nan Chen with a solemn expression.

She was the first to ask, "See?" ”

If it can be said that Nan Chen's face is heavy, then the death of the rumor concubine should be very miserable, so that Nan Chen, a former old friend, feels very heavy.

"I saw it, but I have to check it in detail in the future......"

Nan Chen's lips opened slightly, and he hesitated: "When the subordinates came down, someone had already come to carry away the body of the official girl, and after being inquired, it seemed that Master Gu meant." When the subordinates came down a little later, they only saw one side, and it was indeed the appearance of the Shangguan girl. The subordinates inquired like the jailer and learned that Master Gu had repeatedly signaled to take more care of Concubine Yu, and when the body of the Shangguan girl was found, it was also gnawed by rats. ”

In prison, I always had to listen to the opposite.

If Gu Yanchao reminded those jailers to take more care of Concubine Ruan, it would be to torture her, and the worse the treatment, the better, and maybe even receive a reward.

It is not surprising why Concubine Ruan died of miscarriage.

So Concubine Yu was not an accidental miscarriage, all because she was looking for the wrong ally, and she didn't hesitate to push her out and talk back when she needed someone to block the gun.

Xiang Yeqi tried very hard to squeeze out some sympathy for Concubine Yao, but whether it was Shangguan Rao, the medical girl rescued by Bo Zhaoxu, or Concubine Liu, the new favorite concubine of the old emperor, she was always malicious to herself, and her good impression and trust in her earlier were a little more, and it was she who fell into this situation today.

But in the face of such a dark and damp fact, Xiang Yeqi's heart is still a little dignified.

She is not afraid of the enemy who is as clear as Concubine Ruan, who dislikes herself and wants to kill her directly, she is even more afraid of a character like Gu Yanchao who lives in the shadows all the time, like a snake dormant in a muddy swamp, and she doesn't know when he will bite someone.

What's more, not long ago, Gu Yanchao repeatedly approached him in the name of accompanying Wu Zixi, like a friend.

What you do is a chill down your spine, and you inevitably want to fortify.

The chopsticks in Xiang Ye's hand suddenly fell to the ground, and when there was a clear sound, Xiang Yeqi came back to his senses in a trance, and was shocked to realize that his consciousness was still a few hours ago, and he didn't even realize that he had returned to the Four Kings' Mansion and had dinner, but he could feel the cold of being watched behind him.

"What, I'm so unhappy today?"

Bo Zhaoxu's concerned inquiry provoked the uneasiness in Xiang Ye's heart, and the ghost asked Bo Zhaoxu in a strange way: "How do you see it?" ”

She was shocked that she had asked something that seemed to be suspicious, but after such an incident today, Xiang Yeqi desperately wanted to confirm that Bo Zhaoxu was indeed on the same side as herself, and she could let herself be trusted.

But the sensitive reaction between the voices was more like making up for the sense of security that had been damaged by surprise from Bo Zhaoxu's body......

With Xiang Yeqi and Bo Zhaoxu's sensitivity, it is not difficult to detect that the person who is really collaborating with the enemy is Gu Yanchao. It's just that these two people have a slightly different way of looking at this matter.

"Do you still need this king to guess?"

Bo Zhaoxu was very "kind" and pointed to the various foods piled up in front of him, and said: "When you are in a good mood, I'm afraid that this table can only be used as an appetizer for you, right?" It's been half an hour, and you still haven't moved, but it's just not interested. ”

Xiang Yeqi found himself in front of Bo Zhaoxu, and he was always serious for no more than three seconds.

She stood up and walked to Bo Zhaoxu's side, muttering in a low voice, "Did I do something wrong?" He was able to know about that because I told the county lord of Changchao. I didn't expect her to say all these things, and I didn't expect him to be the one who collaborated with the enemy, I was too rash......"

The more I think about it, the more aggrieved I become.

"It's just a small thing, so why bother with it. The king never thinks you've done anything wrong, but—there's still a lot of nonsense. ”

Bo Zhaoxu seemed to respond to Xiang Yeqi's grievances lightly, but in fact, he wanted Xiang Yeqi to put down his burden and at least tease her for a while.

But what he didn't expect was that Xiang Yeqi hugged him directly and cried, muttering inarticulate what he knew was wrong, and he would never tell others these things casually......

Xiang Yeqi cried well because of his sincerity, Bo Zhaoxu softened his heart in the end, for fear that she would choke, so he gently patted someone on the back to calm down.

Seeing that the people's crying was almost stable, Bo Zhaoxu asked Nan Chen knowingly: "Did you take the princess to drink?" Fake wine to drink? ”

Nan Chen hurriedly vetoed: "How dare your subordinates." ”

Drinking with a person like Xiang Yeqi who looks like an average amount of alcohol is similar to a "capital crime", and he dares to drink fake wine with Xiang Yeqi? He'll have to see if he has that life!

Xiang Yeqi was so angry by Bo Zhaoxu's words that he couldn't cry or laugh, and it seemed to be revenge, but in fact, it was just a few painless knocks on the shoulder.

"It's a little lighter than your bite."

Bo Zhaoxu still didn't give up, as if instinctively teasing Xiang Yeqi, coming and going, Xiang Yeqi just wanted to feel the sadness in his emotions, and he was only so angry that Bo Zhaoxu couldn't cry or laugh.

"This king doesn't know that the county lord of the Chang Dynasty can act in a measured manner, but she shouldn't have told Lord Gu everything, otherwise...... Today's business is not so simple. ”

Xiang Yeqi looked puzzled: "What do you mean by this?" ”

"If the county lord of the Chang Dynasty told Lord Gu everything he knew, then he would weigh the plan again and again, instead of being so abrupt. All he knew was the matter of collaborating with the enemy. Otherwise, if you frame a dead person for collaborating with the enemy, why rush to destroy the evidence of the crime. ”

Regardless of whether the corpse of Concubine Ruan is present or not, the old emperor believes Gu Yanchao's words, so why do he need to make a big deal to hide Concubine Ruan's corpse?

Xiang Yeyan left the Qilong Hall one step ahead of Gu Yanchao, and Nan Chen was one step ahead of her, so she didn't have time to catch up with the people sent by Gu Yanchao to collect the body of Concubine Yu.

That is to say, Ming Gu Yanchao gave this order before meeting the old emperor, in order to remove the body of Concubine Yu before Xiang Yeqi and his party.

"He's so that we can't recognize Concubine Ru's original identity."

Bo Zhaoxu nodded approvingly, and was particularly satisfied with Xiang Yeqi's reply: "It is not so easy to change your face, as long as you artificially change your face, you will definitely find some clues, he is afraid that if you and this king find out her original identity, they will no longer believe him for the crime of framing Concubine Yu." ”
