Chapter 159
Thinking that everyone thought like Liang Lian, they didn't come forward to persuade Liang Lian again, but looked at Liang Huanqing together, hoping that she could tell them what happened yesterday, so that they could rest assured.
"After entering the palace yesterday..."Liang Huanqing looked at everyone's appearance, knowing that he couldn't hide it, so he had to wipe away his tears, sit up straight, and said while sobbing, "I and the princess asked An to come out in the Yichun Hall of Concubine Mei's mother, and it was the key to the palace gate, I couldn't go back to the palace, and I planned to send a message to the palace to ask Yuebai not to wait for me anymore." ”
This has always been Liang Huanqing's normal operation, yesterday Yuebai also thought that she would send someone to the palace to deliver news, so she sent someone to wait at the palace gate, and waited left and right to see no one, so she became worried, Yuebai touched her heart, thinking that the feeling of emptiness yesterday was not groundless, and something did happen.
"But when I just came out of the Yichun Palace, Jiang Yi was gone." Liang Huanqing said, her voice unconsciously crying.
Everyone frowned slightly, and looked at Liang Huanqing suspiciously, probably wanting to know why Jiang Yi disappeared, just for a while, Jiang Yi is not a child anymore, how can he say that he will disappear if he doesn't see it.
"The princess and I asked Father-in-law Rongfu, and Father-in-law Rongfu said that Jiang Yi's jade was lost and he wanted to go to the Imperial Garden to find it." Liang Huanqing glanced at the jade jue in Yuebai's hand, "Seeing that Jiang Yi has not returned for a long time, the princess and I took someone to look for it, the palace is too big, and we can't find anyone after looking for a long time." ”
Liang Huanqing was crying as she spoke, Qin Ruilan looked at Liang Huanqing distressedly, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes from time to time, and touched her hair.
Liang Liang looked at Liang Huanqing with a frown, with a heavy expression, as if he was preparing to accept what happened next.
Yuebai watched Liang Huanqing cry, and she couldn't help crying, holding Jiang Yi's jade jue and rubbing it constantly, she, like Liang Huanqing, has always been a person who values love and righteousness.
Later, the princess asked the palace maid on duty in the imperial garden, only to know that after we entered the palace, Lu Huiling arrived at the imperial garden, Jiang Yi could recognize her, but I didn't know that Lu Huiling had become the emperor's concubine at this time, Jiang Yi failed to salute in time, and was brought back to her Minghua Hall by Lu Huiling for the crime of great rebellion. The princess and I found out, so naturally we were going to look for it, and at that time, Lu Huiling asked me and the princess to wait outside the door for a long time. Liang Huanqing slowly calmed down and was able to tell the reason for the incident smoothly.
"Lu Huiling? Did Lu Huiling kill Jiang Yi? Qin Ruilan gently read Lu Huiling's name, she had heard that Lu Huiling was made a concubine, as early as when Lu Huiling entered the palace as a female official, Qin Ruilan knew that she was not just a female official, but also came to Liang Huanqing to beware of Lu Huiling, "I think it's to take revenge on you." ”
Liang Huanqing looked at Qin Ruilan and shook her head crying: "She didn't kill Lu Huiling... It's me... It's me... I killed Jiang Yi..."
After a night of tossing and turning, Liang Huanqing felt more and more that the person who killed Jiang Yi was none other than herself.
Jiang Yi was specially caught by Lu Huiling to Minghuatang because of her, and it was also because of her that she was locked up by Lu Huiling, and even more because she made a move on Lu Huiling, and Xiao Jiangyi felt that only when she died could she exonerate the princess, so she crashed to death on the wall of the side hall, and now Liang Huanqing sniffed her wrist and could smell the smell of Jiang Yi's blood.
Hearing her answer, everyone was speechless, how could it be her, if it was really as she said that she killed Jiang Yi, then how could she be so distressed and sad?
"Well, speak slowly, don't rush." Qin Ruilan showed her usual empathetic state, touched Liang Huanqing's head, and asked gently.
No matter what Liang Huanqing said, Qin Ruilan would not believe that she killed Jiang Yi.
"After we saw Lu Huiling, we asked her for someone, but she made it difficult for us in every way, telling us that Jiang Yi was killed by her staff, and Princess Wangshu ran to find Mei Guifei, and I was the only one left after she left, Lu Huiling kept using Jiang Yi's death to provoke me, so I raised my hand and slapped her." Liang Huanqing said.
After Qin Ruilan heard her slap Lu Huiling, she stroked the hand behind her back and paused, she didn't know that Liang Huanqing would have such a domineering side, and she dared to fan the fourth concubine for the sake of a maid.
The more Liang Xiao listened, the tighter his fists were clenched, he already knew that there was no good thing for Lu Huiling to enter the palace, but he didn't expect to embarrass Liang Huanqing for the old things before, besides, when she was in the Qishan Palace before, she had already made Liang Huanqing suffer, but fortunately, King Jing was still there at that time and could relieve her.
But now that Daddy and King Jing are gone, no one can protect Liang Huanqing, only his brother, but Lu Huiling has now become the emperor's concubine, and the disparity in identity makes Liang Lian as powerless as a punch on cotton.
"Then Lu Huiling described Jiang Yi's death to me in more vicious words, and I couldn't help but go up to her and do something with her, and then she locked me up..."Liang Huanqing said with painful recollections.
"Are you alright?" Qin Ruilan said worriedly, "Lu Huiling is too unreasonable!" How can you say that she is also the princess of the Heavenly Dynasty, she is just a concubine, how can she compare with you, the princess of the main family? ”
Liang Huanqing raised his hand to wipe a handful of tears, shook his head and said, "I'm fine, until I get to the side hall, I won't know that Jiang Yi is not dead..."
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other, and just said that Lu Huiling killed Jiang Yi, they all took it seriously, now that Jiang Yi is not dead, is it really Liang Huanqing who killed Jiang Yi? But why?
"Jiang Yi knew that after I was imprisoned for doing something to Lu Huiling, in order to exonerate me, for fear that the emperor would blame me for this, he slammed his head into the wall in front of me." Speaking of this, Liang Huanqing couldn't control her emotions anymore, she seemed to see the scene of Jiang Yi dying in front of her eyes again, and she covered her mouth in pain.
"Okay, let's not talk about it... Let's not talk about it..."Qin Ruilan hugged Liang Huanqing, anyone who heard Jiang Yi's death was very sad, loyal servants are rare, and it is really righteous to die for the Lord.
But Qin Ruilan knew that Liang Huanqing was far more sad than they heard it with their own ears, and if they continued to talk about it, I was afraid that Liang Huanqing's body would not be able to bear it.
"Yuebai, help the princess to go back and rest, she is tired when I think about it." Qin Ruilan frowned slightly, and said worriedly, "Xiao'er, you go with them." ”
Xiao'er Ben stood outside the door, and she could also hear Jiang Yi's righteous act of dying for the Lord, she was as sentimental as her, and secretly wiped her tears, she heard the young lady call her, so she hurriedly came to help Liang Huanqing and went to Linlang Garden with Yuebai.
After Liang Huanqing left, Liang was furious and took the case: "Lu Huiling is too unreasonable!" ”
In his opinion, if Lu Huiling really killed Jiang Yi to vent his anger, but if he designed Jiang Yi to commit suicide in front of Liang Huanqing, how much did it hurt Liang Huanqing's body and mind? Whether intentionally or unintentionally, it's infuriating.
"I really didn't expect that Lu Huiling would enter the palace as a concubine because she hated Huanqing, just to take revenge on Huanqing?!" Qin Ruilan also changed her quiet appearance on weekdays, and couldn't help but scold, "It's really hateful!" ”
Wei Shen watched from the sidelines, there were some things he couldn't say, and there were some situations he didn't know, but he could really feel the horror of women.
Si Nanping lowered his head and looked at his fingers, the folding fan kept shaking slowly, he suddenly raised his head and said: "With my shallow understanding of Lu Huiling before, Lu Huiling is not such a person, she loves King Jing deeply, if she just enters the palace to take revenge on the princess because she can't be the princess, although it makes sense, it is unlikely." She doesn't look like the kind of person who sacrifices her life to get revenge on someone. ”
"In your opinion?" Qin Ruilan also has some understanding of Lu Huiling, she heard Si Nanping say this, and she also felt that this was reasonable, "Lu Huiling entered the palace just to take revenge on Huanqing, better than her?" ”
Si Nanping shook his head, looked at Liang Liang with a solemn expression, and asked, "General Liang, can you tell me what strange changes have been in the court recently?" ”
Liang Xiao didn't understand what he was talking about, he only heard that Si Nanping had the title of the first prince in the world, but after all, he only lived in the palace all day long, and he didn't see that he had done anything big, and he naturally didn't have a good impression of Si Nanping, he only felt that he was a literati like Lu Gaohong.
"What do you mean?" Liang asked rhetorically.
"For example, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Si Nanping looked at Liang Lian, his eyes were serious and solemn.
Hearing Si Nanping say this, Liang Lin and Wei Shen glanced at each other, although they have been busy dispatching troops and horses in the military camp and summarizing the battle situation in various places in the past few days, they still have to go to the early dynasty, what has happened recently... Also related to the crown prince ...
The two looked at each other for a while, and Liang Xiao suddenly thought of something: "But the matter of grain and grass?!" ”
Half a month ago, it was the time when the war on the front line was tight, not to say that the tension caused by the lack of soldiers and horses and improper command, but also because of the shortage of grain and grass, the front line repeatedly sent urgent documents, to the emperor, in order to ask for grain and grass support, the border was desolate, the New Year was approaching and it was even more cold, the soldiers were very difficult, there was no clothes to keep warm, and there was no food to satisfy hunger, and it would not be long before the 100,000 army would retreat due to lack of food and grass.
At this critical moment, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince led a hundred officials to donate Yulu, took out the surplus grain in his house, and left the rest of the winter rations to be donated to the treasury to ensure the needs of the front-line soldiers.
With the support of the merchants, the front-line soldiers had food to survive the winter, and the logistics of this war were fully guaranteed, and for a while, the reputation of the crown prince Qi Jingyang was far and wide, and the emperor even praised His Royal Highness the prince many times, and the limelight almost overshadowed Qi Jingqin, who led the troops to fight on the front line.
