Chapter 66: Giving the Order (Second Watch)
The women of the harem were active, and the means were naturally full of flowers, and they all thought of offering their courtesy in front of the emperor. Some people take the path of little eunuchs, some take the path of palace maids and grandmothers, and some even find Gonggong Zhang directly.
Although Father-in-law Zhang didn't agree, he turned a blind eye to the people below and didn't care much.
For two days in a row, the emperor seemed to be aware of it, and on this day, he suddenly became angry and ordered a show girl to be dragged out and killed, which shocked the entire harem at once.
The emperor is a person who pities the fragrance and cherishes the jade, from the prince to the emperor, he is famous for loving and caring for beauties, and he has never been so ruthless and ruthless to a soft woman.
This is the first time.
The show girl didn't hit the board twice before she died.
Everyone in the harem was horrified, and it all stopped at once.
The emperor let out cruel words, "In the future, no one who has been summoned to turn over the brand must not try to approach me under various names, otherwise he will be killed." ”
As soon as these words came out, the spring bamboo shoots that emerged from the harem suddenly retracted their heads.
No one wants to die, and now going to His Majesty is tantamount to looking for death.
The people in the harem found out that Hua Ruyu was dead, and the emperor seemed to have lost interest in all the women in the harem. Although the flower-like person died, it seemed to have taken away the emperor's heart, and the emperor's heart was not gentle at all, it was ruthless.
Now, he only thinks about killing An Huajin and avenging Hua Ruyu.
The emperor's every move spread out of the palace, and the courtiers were also shocked.
In the past two days, it is not that no courtiers have entered the palace to advise the emperor, An Huajin's identity, on the day of the palace banquet, there was a mistake, delirious and murdered, although he was guilty, but the crime was not to death, and he asked His Majesty to stop and open the net.
But where is the emperor willing to listen? scolded the courtiers who had advised him and drove him out of the south study.
The courtiers who exhorted all sighed.
The Praetorian Guards and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses searched the city, and in two days, the news of His Majesty's arrest of An Huajin spread out of the capital like snowflakes and spread all over the world.
The third princess, Chu Xiyun, couldn't sit still and wanted to run to find the emperor, but she was stopped by the grandmother next to her and reported to the queen, and the queen ordered Mama He to call Chu Siyan to Fengqi Palace.
Chu Xiyun looked at the queen dissatisfied, "Queen Mother, why did my father arrest Xiao An'er?" Even if Xiao An'er committed a crime and killed Hua Ruyu, it was because there was a reason for the incident, she was delirious, and the crime was not to death, why did you let people stop me from letting me go to my father? ”
The queen touched Chu Xiyun's head and said lovingly, "The queen mother knows that you care about your cousin, but now your father is bent on avenging Hua Ruyu and the child in her womb, and no one will listen to anyone's advice, and if you run in front of him, you won't be able to please him, and maybe he will blame you and punish you heavily." ”
"I'm not afraid." Chu Xiyun said angrily, "My father is unreasonable, my cousin obviously played well with me, he sent someone to call me away, and the whole palace banquet did not appear, although my daughter is stupid, she also knows that her father must have made her do something, how can she blame her now?" ”
"Your Majesty can't listen to it, shouting and shouting and killing, then you have to find someone." The queen said, "You don't have to worry, Xiao An'er should have returned to Nanyang." Your brother won't let me take care of it, and you don't have to. ”
"Huh?" Chu Xiyun was surprised, "She, she's already back to Nanyang?" Just gone? ”
"Yes, if you don't go, are you waiting for Your Majesty to take her and kill her? She's not stupid. The queen laughed mockingly, "A flower is like jade, she is a sinner girl, but she was held to the tip of her heart by Her Majesty, this palace wants to see, what does he want to do?" He used to bully the An family, your grandfather was loyal to the monarch, and your uncle and cousin were Chichen, but Xiao An'er didn't give up, the An family always had an iron plate, which His Majesty couldn't kick. ”
Chu Xiyun was surprised for a while, thinking that An Huajin was not a temperament that was controlled by people, nodded, put her heart at ease, sat next to the queen, and said next to her, "Queen Mother, my father has changed." ”
The queen was silent.
Chu Xiyun said worriedly, "I heard that my brother was punished by his father, resigned from all his duties, and thought about it behind closed doors. Now that my father has punished my brother, aren't those people going to die of joy? ”
"As long as the family does not fall, no matter how happy they are, they will not be able to take their turn." The queen's eyebrows were cold, "Your brother didn't do anything wrong. ”
At most, it was not in accordance with the emperor's arrangement to promote what the emperor wanted to achieve.
Chu Xiyun said, "Queen Mother, I want to go out of the palace to see my brother." ”
"I'll go back in a few days, and in the next few days, you will stay quietly in the palace and don't go anywhere." The queen shook her head, "Don't bother your brother. lest because you went to your brother, let your brother provoke the black eyes of your father again. ”
Chu Xiyun immediately dispelled her thoughts when she heard this, and nodded.
In the palace of Prince Shan, Chu Siyan listened to the Praetorian Guards outside and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division searching for people in the whole city, she was in a hurry, the corners of her mouth were foaming, her head was almost dizzy, and she ran to find Chu Chen.
Since that day, Chu Chen has also sent people to secretly look for An Huajin, but no one has been found so far.
He had an intuition, everyone said that An Huajin had left the capital and returned to Nanyang, but he felt that An Huajin must not have left yet, he was still in the capital, but he was hidden by Gu Qingyan, and he didn't know where he was hiding.
He felt that it must be on Eighth Street.
But Eighth Avenue is Gu Qingyan's territory, and he doesn't dare to investigate it with great fanfare, for fear of alarming His Majesty, but instead causing trouble for Gu Qingyan and An Huajin.
"Brother, did you find Xiao An'er?" Chu Siyan asked Chu Chen three times a day.
Chu Chen looked at her sister, since she sent her to Nanyang once, she had become An Huajin's own sister, he shook his head and said to her, "She should have returned to Nanyang, don't worry, it's useless for you to worry." ”
Chu Siyan confirmed again and again, "Brother, are you sure that Xiao An'er has returned to Nanyang?" ”
If you go back to Nanyang, it's okay, but it's dangerous to stay in the capital.
"The Praetorian Guards and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses have searched the capital, and even the Gu family has searched, but they haven't found her, so naturally she left the city and left the capital, she is not stupid, is she still waiting for His Majesty to find her and clean her up? Three years ago, she beat me up, and immediately returned to Nanyang, and now she has killed Hua Ruyu, which is no different. ”
Three years ago, it was Prince Shan's grandson who was beaten, and three years later, it was His Majesty's favorite woman who was killed, and the matter was even bigger.
Chu Siyan hated in her heart, "It must be that woman who provoked Xiao An'er, otherwise Xiao An'er wouldn't have killed her." ”
The simple-minded little girl, no one told her that there was His Majesty's conspiracy and calculation, and she would not have thought that the result of this matter was the result of An Huajin and His Majesty's toughness.
Chu Chen waved his hand at her, "You stay honest, she likes you very much, I know that you are worried, after returning to Nanyang, she will definitely let someone quietly send you a message back." ”
Chu Siyan's eyes lit up, "Then I'll wait." ”
Chu Chen nodded.
Chu Siyan turned around to leave, and when she remembered something, her face suddenly collapsed, "Your Majesty actually canceled the marriage contract between Xiao An'er and Gu Qingyan, Xiao An'er likes Gu Qingyan so much, now that there is no marriage contract, and this incident happened again, wouldn't the two of them be broken up?" ”
Chu Chen snorted in his heart, if it can be dismantled, it will be fine!
He said indifferently, "When is it, it's good to have a life, and the marriage contract will be canceled if it is canceled." ”
Chu Siyan looked at Chu Chen with wide eyes, "Brother, wouldn't you hear that Your Majesty canceled the Angu marriage, you are secretly happy in your heart, right?" ”
Chu Chen: "......"
Is he that kind of person?
He glared at Chu Siyan, "They don't cancel the marriage contract or not, they don't care much about me, when they don't cancel, Xiao An'er won't give me a chance, after cancellation, Xiao An'er won't give me a chance, she won't marry the surname Chu." What am I happy about? ”
Chu Siyan let out an "oh", "I still hope that the two of them can get married, both of them are so good-looking, if they are separated, it will be a pity." ”
Chu Chen: "......"
This sister who looks at her face, when is it, she only cares if they are together.
How could they not be together?
Gu Qingyan was not angry at An Huajin, the Gu family's hidden stake buried in the palace poured out, killing and injuring hundreds of Praetorian Guards, and now he is hiding with An Huajin, and even His Majesty is gone?
Before, he didn't think that with Gu Qingyan's temperament, gentle in appearance, cold in his bones, gentle but alienated, kind but cold, he couldn't imagine who he could fight against His Majesty for and do this, but he didn't expect that now he is so affectionate, it can be seen that he really likes An Huajin.
Yes, such a little girl, if she likes her, she doesn't hold it in the palm of her hand and put it in her mouth to confess to the tip of her heart?
Gu Qingyan just has this qualification than others.
If you like her, you have this only qualification.
After Chu Siyan left, Chu Chen looked at the window, looked at the gloomy sky outside, and let out a long breath.
The wind in Beijing is loud, and even God has turned his face, this gloomy weather must soon be a cold wind and cold rain. I don't know if His Majesty will not be able to find someone, he will be angry and fall ill in a fit of anger.
