Chapter 110: Dead

When the news reached Yin Chen's ears, he was still entangled with those ministers, and Yin Chen, the minister who had been kneeling outside, originally didn't want to reason them to go, but Hou Zhong, who had been kneeling outside for a long time, told him that the one led by him had fainted.

"The old minister is old, and his body is not as good as before, I still thought that it doesn't matter if I kneel, but I didn't expect it to be really unbearable."

Yin Chen glanced at Chen Guang, who was kneeling on the ground quickly after waking up, and his unhappiness became more and more obvious, and when he saw the imperial doctor on the side, he signaled that he didn't have much of a problem and issued an eviction order: "Since it's no big deal, Chen Aiqing will go home early."

Chen Guang looked at Hou Zhong on the side when he heard this, and he naturally heard Hou Zhong's words just now. Since he has been kneeling for so long, it is to make Li Shenlan fall, and now looking at Yin Chen's posture, he is afraid that he will go to see her again, then he must be unwilling.

"Your Majesty, you must not go to see Li Shenlan, now this folk legend is that Li Shenlan is the demon concubine of the country, since the emperor has sent her to prison, he can no longer be merciful! Ask the emperor to think twice and give the demon girl Li Shenlan death! ”

As soon as Chen Guang's words fell, Yin Chen flicked his sleeves and ordered him to be expelled from the palace, and the sound of Chen Guang crying and grabbing the ground sounded outside the hall in an instant.

"O Emperor! The demon girl mistook the country, and my great Qi country is destined to be difficult to protect! ”

Maybe even Yin Chen didn't expect Chen Guang to be a foolish and loyal person who admitted death, and the two guards dragged him down not long before he broke free, and then shouted "Demon Concubine Woe to the Country" and died in front of the big pillar at the entrance of the Heart Cultivation Palace. There were other ministers kneeling at the entrance of the palace, so they would only think that it was Yin Chen who protected Li Shenlan and forced the loyal ministers of the two dynasties to death, so that Li Shenlan would apologize with death.

Yin Chen was pacing back and forth in the Heart Cultivation Palace, his eyebrows were so distressed that he hadn't slept well for almost two days.

"Your Majesty, Lord Chen's matter ......" Hou Zhongyuan didn't want to touch Yin Chen's head, but Chen Guang's body was still spread at the entrance of the palace, so it was not a thing.

"Have a good burial, and send the memorial ceremony to Chen's house." After Yin Chen finished speaking, he strode to the door of the Heart Cultivation Palace, and the ministers who were kneeling on the ground saw Yin Chen come out and asked for death Li Shenlan and Chen Guang to redress their grievances.

"Listen to what the emperor has to say, where can you make a fuss."

Hou Zhong's shrill voice finally interrupted the noise, and the sky had already begun to turn white, and he didn't know if Li Shenlan was cold in prison after coming over like this all night. Yin Chen wrinkled his head and felt astringent in his heart, he wanted to go to the prison to see her, but he was the emperor, and many things were not so free, so he always had to give an explanation to the courtiers and the world.

"I am standing in front of you now, it can be seen that the rumors are not true, Lan Guifei and I have always been harmonious and harmonious, but Nizi is pampered, it is inevitable that she has a little temper, that night Guifei learned sword dance for me, but I don't know that if I am not careful, I will be injured and blame me for being careless, so there is friction. I didn't want to tell you about these boudoir pleasures, but Chen Guang was radical and stereotyped and caused a death, so I came forward to tell the truth.

is also to tell you that the concubine has always been a concubine, and from beginning to end she was just Li Yunshan's adopted daughter, and the Li Mansion had nothing to do with the concubine. If I hear gossip again, I will never be polite! ”

Yin Chen's words are obviously reversing black and white, and those ministers are not fools. It's been a day of kneeling and causing a lot of death, but in exchange for such a rhetoric, let alone a minister, even the people refuse to admit it.

It's just that Yin Chen didn't care about those three-seven-twenty-one, and after saying these words, he pretended to be unfit and forcibly sent the ministers back, and then helped Hou Zhong back to the palace.

"Your Majesty, just say that, I'm afraid they won't buy it, and it's hard for the concubine to get away with it."

Yin Chen sat on the dragon chair and closed his eyes very tiredly, he didn't know what Hou Zhong said, but what Li Shenlan did this time was really too much, Yin Chen had never encountered such a thorny problem in more than ten years since he ascended the throne.

"What fruit does the concubine want to eat?"

"The slave really hasn't seen the fruit, but the concubine sent someone to draw a picture of it......"

"Send someone to find a fast horse and send it to you, and send them to accompany the concubine in the cell."

Yin Chen didn't hesitate at all, as if he would give it to her without hesitation as long as Li Shenlan wanted it from beginning to end. But this time, Li Shenlan said that he wanted to see him, but he didn't know what kind of mood to see her.

It was dawn outside the house, Yin Chen squinted his eyes and muttered something in his heart: "Wait, I'll pick you up soon......"

The morning light of late autumn is rarely so bright, and Li Shenlan sat on the bed so firmly without sleeping all night. The first ray of sunlight shone in through the iron prison window, hitting Li Shenlan's face. For a moment, it was like a picture of a beautiful woman waiting for her return in the morning.

Li Shenlan was not too sleepy, she sat down and really thought about a lot of things in her heart one night, from childhood to now, everything seems to be real and ethereal. Speaking of which, Li Shenlan looked down on herself, Yin Chen's killing of the second elder of the Song family was already an ironclad matter, and this incident was doomed to be impossible for the two of them. But even though Yin Chen has done too much to live up to himself, the weakest part of his heart is still firmly repeating his liking. Maybe he is the stupidest person in the world, Li Shenlan said in her heart.

The inner torment tormented herself, and Li Shenlan spent the night with her fingers on the wrist of her left hand.

Death is not the best relief now, but it seems that in the bottom of my heart, I am still attached to this world, and I am attached to someone or something in this world. The wrist was now red and swollen, and the blood streaks were on the epidermis as if it would be cut in the next second, and then endless blood flowed until the withered flowers of the person withered.

There was a sound of rustling in the corridor, thinking that it was time for the cell boss to inspect again, Li Shenlan didn't care, but it was rare that her eyelids were a little heavy.

"Mother, wash up and have some breakfast."

A familiar voice sounded behind her, Li Shenlan turned around in surprise and saw that Shu Qiu was standing at the door of the cell, and Zang Dong behind him was also holding a dinner plate with a hot breakfast on it, with Li Shenlan's favorite pumpkin porridge.

"Why did you get in, is there something going on outside?"

Instinctively, Li Shenlan was afraid that she would burden them, so she was prepared from the beginning, and if something happened, she would let them go to Concubine Xiang's to stay and have a safe place.

"It was the emperor who asked us to come over to serve you, and the emperor also specially instructed the slave to deliver a message to you, and the emperor will take you out when the outside is dealt with."

Li Shenlan didn't respond, she could see from Concubine Xiang's expression yesterday that the situation outside was by no means as light as what Shu Qiu said. Yin Chen said this so that he didn't worry and wanted to give himself hope, but he didn't know that the flame of hope was extinguished by Li Shenlan himself from the beginning.

"Niangniang, these are all made in a hurry in the small kitchen, and they are all what you like to eat every day."

Zang Dong said and put all the dishes on the table one by one, and ordered someone to bring hot water to serve Li Shenlan to freshen up. After talking about last night's night, Li Shenlan is now full of wine, and Shuqiu knows that Li Shenlan is sad and doesn't speak, but just adds hot water and waits for her to soak her feet to soothe her mood.

"What's going on out there?"

"There's no situation, the emperor will let the mother stay for a few days, and then she will be able to return to the Lilan Palace in a few days."

The confessions of Harvest Autumn and Tibetan Winter are rare to match, and there is no need to think that Yin Chen ordered them in advance. Li Shenlan will not stop there, she has made it clear that she will not eat well if she doesn't tell her the truth, and there is no way to harvest autumn, so she honestly tells the whole story outside.

"Chen Guang died directly?"

Li Shenlan was shocked, she didn't expect such a thing to happen. It doesn't matter if he can't get out, it's just that he will make a fuss, but I'm afraid that for Yin Chen, not to mention the loss, it will sandwich him between the two.

"The emperor has come forward to calm down, and when we came in, Concubine Xiang had already sent someone out of the palace to calm down the gossip outside the palace, so don't worry."

Although he said this, Li Shenlan was in no mood in the end, and he didn't know what was going on outside. For herself, Concubine Xiang is far from having to work so hard, after all, everything is not worth it.

It's just that Li Shenlan's thoughts, how did Concubine Xiang know, when she came out of prison, she filmed people out of the palace to control the few people who spread rumors led by her, and then tried her best to create some other positive news about Li Shenlan to distract the attention of the masses. It's just that the effect is very little, after all, the assassination of the emperor by the concubine of a country is too shocking, even if it is an after-dinner chat, it is enough for them to talk about it for a year.

"How so?"

"The slave and maid don't know, our people have already controlled the rumor-mongering led by us, but things seem to be getting worse, and now people outside the palace are saying that Concubine Lan is a demon concubine of the country. If this continues, it is possible that the people will ask for the death of the concubine. ”

Concubine Xiang's hand holding her sleeve tightened more and more, she blindly wanted to keep Li Shenlan, but things seemed to be getting more and more out of control. These words came out of the mouths of those ministers from the beginning, and if nothing else, I am afraid that those who released them from the palace spread them first.

"The ministers led by the family have at least one daughter, and it was time for the draft after the New Year, but the queen mother passed away before the emperor was still in the filial piety period, and then there was Empress Rensi, and the emperor had no intention of drafting, and these people couldn't wait for the next three years to become more radical."

"What about the one named Chen Guang who died for the head, has his news been suppressed?"

Qin Yin wiped her sweat and said, "Niangniang, this matter can't be suppressed at all, now Lord Chen's body has been sent to Chen Gen's Mansion, if you don't get it right, the Chen family will make trouble soon."

Concubine Xiang was so angry that she couldn't wait to smash the things in the hall, but this would not solve the problem at all, and now in such a situation, Li Shenlan would not say that she came out, but she was afraid that she would be shouted and beaten by the whole people after a few people.

"What about the emperor? What is the situation in the Heart Cultivation Hall now? ”

"Your Majesty...... I'm afraid that I don't have an idea, and the ministers who said it at the beginning didn't buy it at all, and now the Heart Cultivation Hall has been closed. However, the emperor sent them to take care of the concubine in prison...... The concubine said last night that she wanted to see the emperor, but the emperor never wanted to go. ”

Everything is like a dead chess game, no matter which chess piece Li Shenlan moves, it is a dead word.

In the Heart Cultivation Palace, Yin Chen sat there with two dark circles under his eyes and didn't know what he was thinking. The people who left the palace were also fast, and they hurriedly sent the fruit that Li Shenlan liked, out of curiosity, Yin Chen picked one up and tasted it, the taste was sweet and sour, but with a little astringency, it was very novel, and it was also in line with the current situation.

"Is the concubine okay?"

"Niangniang didn't sleep all night last night, and the breakfast Niangniang sent by the autumn girl this morning only took a few bites and didn't move. Your Majesty, this morning Niangniang said that she wanted to see you. ”

Yin Chen's hand paused, this is the second time Li Shenlan has spoken, Yin Chen doesn't want to see it because he doesn't want to, he can't wait to hold Li Shenlan in his arms now and comfort him. He knew that the matter of the second elder of the Song family had always been a kind of mustard in her heart, and Yin Chen should have returned the injury of this knife to Li Shenlan. It's just that these things outside haven't been dealt with yet, and seeing her take it out will only hurt her.

"Your Majesty, are you really not going to see your mother?"

Yin Chen looked at the half-bitten fruit in his hand and felt bitter, and finally relented and decided to go to the prison to meet Li Shenlan, and before leaving, he specially asked Hou Zhong to prepare a lot of Li Shenlan's favorite food to bring over, for fear that she would be wronged in prison.

At first glance, Li Shenlan was asleep, and she was very tired if she hadn't slept all night, Yin Chen had always liked to watch Li Shenlan sleep, and her defenseless gentle appearance always seemed to have a feather gently scratching the softest part of her heart.

"How much did the concubine use for breakfast this morning?"

"Yes, the concubine was in a bad mood and couldn't eat half a bowl of porridge. After all, it was colder in this prison than outside, and the concubine didn't sleep all night last night. ”

Listening to the report of the harvest, Yin Chen's brows were locked fiercely, and he thought about tucking her hand into the quilt, but he inadvertently saw the red blood on Li Shenlan's left wrist.

"What's going on?"

"The slave asked the mother and refused to say, but when she came this morning, she saw that there was already a ......."

As soon as he said the words of the harvest, Yin Chen understood, and his eyes were full of distress, looking at the sleeping Li Shenlan, his heart became more and more uncomfortable. It's just that in this world, it's more about making up for it, but trying to make up for it but not making it up at all.

I don't know if it was my own movement that made Li Shenlan noisy, and her eyelashes trembled like butterfly wings, instinctively blocking the sunlight seeping in from outside.

"Awake?"

Li Shenlan was still a little sleepy, and instinctively followed the sound to see the magnified Yin Chen's face in front of her.

No one is a fool, so he can naturally see that Yin Chen's eyes are full of worry. Yin Chen saw that Li Shenlan was also coming when he got up, and hurriedly motioned for Hou Zhong to hand the fruit he brought to Li Shenlan.

"I knew you wanted to eat it, and I hurriedly asked people to find it, do you taste the taste in your impression?"

Li Shenlan took the fruit a little sloppily, and finally became a little sober after being stimulated by the sourness. Seeing that there were many people around him, it was always difficult to say what he was talking about, so he said that he wanted to talk to Yin Chen alone.

"Does the emperor's injury still hurt?"

Yin Chen thought that Li Shenlan was distressing him, and he had a trace of joy in his heart, but when he turned around, he couldn't be happy when he saw Li Shenlan's indifferent face.
