Chapter 59: Woe to the Vine

Shangguan Hong's confession was rushed to the palace on the night Zhong Lishuo came out of the prison. Zhong Lishuo knew that there were many dreams at night, and if he put the fold by his side for a few more moments, he would be in danger of giving himself a little more. At this time, he only needed to go back to his palace with peace of mind and quietly wait for the emperor's angry decree the next day.

Everything is under control.

Strategize. Zhong Lishuo went from enduring humiliation earlier, and finally waited for the position where he could play with his opponent in the palm of his hand, he was naturally happy, even satisfied, and the feeling of being satisfied with the desire to control made him almost crazy. And now, he just has to wait.

The darkness before dawn is naturally the longest. But Zhong Lishuo seemed to be enjoying the feeling, and the kind of torture that made him sleepless made him feel extremely excited. He even thought that maybe there would never be such an opportunity in the future, and that he should have a good experience now.

Zhong Lishuo may not know that once Shangguan Hong is punished, the queen and the crown prince will target him, and he is really looking forward to it now. However, it is dangerous, and it may cost you your life.

It was already late at night, Zhong Lishuo had never felt so excited, he was lying on the bed tossing and turning, and even alarmed Wen Shumei, who was sleeping next to him. Wen Shumei stood up and looked at him sleepily and asked:

"It's already late at night, why hasn't Your Highness slept yet?" Zhong Lishuo was a rare good temper, and he patted Wen Shumei's back with his hand:

"Not sleepy. You just go to sleep first. Shrewd. ”

"Well-behaved"? Zhong Lishuo never seemed to have said this kind of word to Wen Shumei, Wen Shumei felt a warm current in her heart, and a different smile appeared on her face, and she bent down again and rubbed into Zhong Lishuo's arms.

The night was so quiet that the sound of cicadas could no longer be heard, and this strange silence seemed to have a seductive magic, which made Zhong Lishuo's heart overflow with a strange feeling. The feeling made him feel excited, as if blood was bursting out, and a large patch of crimson made him feel the impulse.

Zhong Lishuo had never felt such a reaction from his body. Now it was as if there were countless small worms crawling on him, making him feel unbearable. Zhong Lishuo felt uncomfortable, turned over and got out of bed, and went to the bronze mirror of Wen Shumei, he looked at himself in the mirror, his face was a little pale, but there was a burning flame in his eyes, and the heat seemed to burst out of his eyes.

With a dry mouth, Zhong Lishuo stared at himself in the mirror, and he suddenly felt scared. When did he become so cruel, so tyrannical, he didn't know. But he likes his state very much. He felt sick about it. The heart burns infinitely. He looked in the mirror with his own eyes that began to turn to hatred.

He didn't know what he wanted to do.

"Your Highness, what's wrong with you?" Wen Shumei's soft stiffness poured into Zhong Lishuo's ears, Zhong Lishuo subconsciously turned his head, a pair of eyes full of hatred were facing Wen Shumei, Wen Shumei was shocked, and her body shrank back.

Zhong Lishuo looked at Wen Shumei's reaction, he felt even more excited, and suddenly got up from the chair and threw himself at Wen Shumei.

In the quiet night, the woman's whispering and the man's low breathing were interspersed, and even countless flowers seemed to float in the air. It's as if there were ripples in a puddle of water.

It seemed that after a long time, the sigh-like murmur gradually faded away, and everything returned to peace, even sinking into a dying silence.

The next morning, Zhong Lishuo had not yet woken up from his dream, Wen Shumei got up early, and when she was dressing up in front of the bronze mirror, she heard someone outside asking to see Zhong Lishuo. Wen Shumei was unhappy in her heart, last night the spring light was full of house, Zhong Lishuo was very tired, she wanted to let Zhong Lishuo sleep for a while, so she said to Honglian who helped her comb her hair with some impatience:

"Go see who it is." Honglian answered, went for a while and hurried back, and whispered beside Wen Shumei:

"It's Chen Tong, as if there is something important to see His Highness." Wen Shumei listened, raised her eyebrows, turned her head to look at Zhong Lishuo, who was still asleep, and thought about it, so she got up and went to the bed.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, Chen Tong asked to see him, I think there is something important." Zhong Lishuo answered, opened his eyes, reacted with half-squinted eyes, and sat up from the bed, rubbing his eyes with his hands. Wen Shumei looked at it, and hurriedly turned out the tea handed over by Honglian and sent it to Zhong Lishuo, and said to Honglian while watching Zhong Lishuo rinse his mouth:

"Let Chen Tong in."

Chen Tong came in, looked at Honglian and Wen Shumei who were standing on the side, and stopped talking, Zhong Lishuo seemed to see Chen Tong's concerns, so he asked Honglian to retreat and left Wen Shumei in the room. Chen Tong looked at Wen Shumei with some doubts before he spoke, but he didn't say it clearly, just said:

"The fold was handed over early in the morning, and His Majesty was furious when he saw it. The punishment of Ling Chi has been decreed, but the time has not yet been set. Your Highness, there will be no changes during this period, right? Zhong Lishuo only frowned when he heard this, and eased his mind:

"So what did the court say today?" Chen Tong lowered his head, although he answered, his eyes kept glancing at Wen Shumei:

"As soon as the holy decree was issued in the morning, the ministers were immediately divided into two factions, one faction advocated severe punishment, and the other faction wanted to reduce the sentence as appropriate for the sake of his past achievements." Zhong Lishuo nodded as if he had expected it a long time ago:

"What about the prince?"

"The prince advocates severe punishment." The voice fell, and the corner of Zhong Lishuo's mouth raised a smile:

"The prince is going to kill his relatives in righteousness. What about my father's thoughts? Chen Tong shook his head:

"Your Majesty's mind is incomprehensible. I only heard that His Majesty did not say anything else. Zhong Lishuo listened, let out a long breath, calmed down, and waved his hand:

"You go out first. Come with me to the palace in a moment. Maybe the palace is in chaos now. Chen Tong went out in response, and Wen Shumei, who was standing on the side, stepped forward and walked to Zhong Lishuo:

"Mei'er helps His Highness change his clothes." Zhong Lishuo was stunned for a moment and looked at Wen Shumei:

"Why didn't you ask what happened today?" Wen Shumei smiled:

"Mei'er's world is His Royal Highness, and other Mei'er don't want to be careful. Mei'er only knew that what His Highness did was right. Zhong Lishuo suddenly felt a warm heart when he heard this, but he couldn't help but be a little suspicious, although this Wen Shumei talked a lot in the past, but her heart was always simple, and now although she is a little more mature, she seems to be a woman with deep ups and downs in the palace, but it is a little more dangerous. Zhong Lishuo hated such a woman the most, but he couldn't say it in front of Wen Shumei, so he mentioned:

"You don't have to be so quiet, I still prefer you to be more real." After saying that, Zhong Lishuo got dressed and went out.
