Chapter 712: Breaking the Situation
In fact, the gate of Wanchun Yuan is not locked, there is no detention of the vicious court felons here, and the two people who were grounded here never had the idea of "escaping from prison", they just waited quietly for the emperor's ruling, did not make useless grievances, and still enjoyed the quiet years.
Even if it's the last time of my life?
So when the prince stepped into Wanchun Garden, what he saw was that Lan Ting and Chun Gui were squatting and bending over, serving a plant and talking at the same time, he couldn't hear what the two were talking about, he could only see the two side faces, radiant and soft, as if this was not Wanchun Yuan in the deep palace, they were in their own home.
And in my dreams, this scene is all too familiar.
The prince's hand behind his waist wanted to clench, but his fingers were still slowly relaxed.
Gao Deyi was behind him, and this step must not show flaws.
"Your Highness......" Gao Deyi just revealed his intention to urge.
"Wait, let the two of them ...... Let's wait. ”
The prince stood quietly under the sun, which had gradually become hot in May, and looked at the shade of the flowers.
Watching Chungui pull Lan Ting up, the two of them cleaned up a bunch of dead branches and leaves under the pruning, washed the sludge on their hands in a basin of clean water, Chungui put down the high sleeves for Lan Ting, and straightened the corners of his robe pinned to his waist, Lan Ting pinned the strands of hair hanging down on her temples behind her ears for Chun Gui, and pinched her earlobes.
They turned around and looked.
They had already noticed that there was an uninvited guest.
The prince suddenly felt that the corners of his eyes were astringent and swollen, and his chest was blocked by something, but at this moment, there was a feeling that broke through the obscure-like emotion, and it was extremely clear.
He envied Lan Ting.
Envy Lan Ting can protect Chungui so justifiably in such a situation, and he can only pretend to be cold-blooded and ruthless, he only has this way to save Chungui from the killing situation.
The reality is that he can't be a person who lives and dies with Chungui.
"Please ask Gu Yiren to stay away first." The prince opened his mouth, but his eyes could only look at Lan Ting.
"No need." Lan Ting smiled slightly: "Your Highness doesn't need to make unnecessary persuasions, minister, your mind has been decided." Please give your Highness wine. ”
"Don't, you ......" Are you really worried that there is indeed poison in this wine? The prince looked up at the scorching sun, and he was now extreme
He was afraid that this time even Lan Ting would not be able to break through the deadlock, and right now, he would lose the most precious person in his life.
Lan Ting was silent and confronted the crown prince.
The crown prince stepped forward and hugged him heavily, his gaze staring quickly from Lan Ting's shoulder after avoiding everyone.
She drooped her eyelids, so calm that she didn't even twitch her long black eyelashes, and she didn't look at him, as if she would never look at him again in her life.
The crown prince let go of Lan Ting, took a step back, and in front of Gao Deyi, he bowed to President Lan with the dignity of the prince.
"Qin Xun Yu Xian and his wife, ashamed of being a sinner, shameless to pray for forgiveness, don't be, in the future, we will always meet under the spring one day, and at that time, let you cut with a thousand knives, it is also Qin Xun's crime deserved."
He turned his back, no longer restrained his emotions, shook his wrist and poured out a glass of wine, handed it to Lan Ting, Lan Ting handed it over to Chun Gui first, and still took the second glass of wine in silence.
The prince turned around timidly, choking on a breath that made his chest ache with anger.
In the end, I still heard Gao Deyi finally speak.
"Zhao Du Yugu is pleasant and slow, listen to the Holy Lord's words first."
——
Emperor Hongfu is making three-handed preparations, if the prince fights for Gu's reason, there will be no will to give wine, after all, the statement that the innocent person will be executed because of the prince is not only unconvincing, but also will put the prince in a disadvantageous place first, if this is the result, Chungui will die of sudden illness in the forbidden, and Lan Ting, since he is single-mindedly martyred, then there is no need for Emperor Hongfu to execute again, and the prince's response made Emperor Hongfu give up this last resort and worst plan first.
So he continued to test, and let Gao Deyi be responsible for judging whether the prince was consistent in his words and deeds, and if the prince repented and impulsively resisted the order, Lan Ting and Chungui still couldn't escape death.
The crown prince withstood the second test, and Gao Deyi stopped Lan Ting and Chungui from taking poison in time.
Of course, the oracle only made Lan Ting and Chungui continue to wait for the holy judgment.
Emperor Hongfu saw the prince again: "Xun'er, my father has not made a firm ruling, I want to hear your advice." ”
"Qin Xun hopes that his father can give him trust again, Qin Xun dares to go to the temple and swear in front of the ancestors and ancestors, Qin Xun will never do anything that damages the society and the country in this life, if he indulges his lustful desires, Qin Xun will die in a short time, and he will not be buried in the tomb of the sect when he dies, and he will be humiliated by thousands of people in the world!"
Of course, the crown prince would not advise Emperor Hongfu to put Lan Ting and Chungui to death at this time.
this
Back to the so-called Zhenlong crisis, the most important thing is whether Emperor Hongfu trusts the prince, and Lan Ting knows what Emperor Hongfu values most.
It is the political ambition of the prosperous world.
If he also gave up Chungui, Emperor Hongfu would not hesitate to execute Chungui, but Lanting was confident that Emperor Hongfu would not give up on him easily, not for personal reasons, but for the sake of the world.
Only when he was determined to die could Emperor Hongfu hesitate.
In this crisis, the prince, Lan Ting, and Chungui can't be reckless and stupid, only when Emperor Hongfu thinks that leaving the lives of Lan Ting and Chungui is more beneficial to the society and the country than executing them, the death situation will be self-defeating.
As a result, Lan Ting and Chun Gui were lucky again.
Emperor Hongfu chose to trust the crown prince.
Yi Gao Deyi went to Wanchun Yuan again, and this time he was full of smiles: "The emperor asked Zhao Du to go back to the Taishi Mansion first, as for Gu Yiren...... No, now I should call Mrs. Gu, the emperor ordered, Mrs. will live in Cining Palace for a few days. ”
This means that Emperor Hongfu not only approved Lan Ting's edict for Chungui's request, but also would not pursue the sudden incident, and let Chungui temporarily live in Cining Palace, also because of a lie - after all, the emperor used the name of the queen mother to keep Chungui in the ban.
Emperor Hongfu asked Gao Deyi: "What is Lan Ting's reaction?" ”
Gao Deyi couldn't cry or laugh: "Zhao Duyu said, it's a pity that he just tried to treat the worm disease of a peony plant yesterday, and it took him half a day, but he didn't know if the method was effective for that peony plant." ”
These words made Emperor Hongfu laugh: "He is reluctant to give up on Wanchunyuan." ”
But when Emperor Hongfu made this decision, he actually felt that his body and mind were in vain, as if he had unloaded an invisible burden, and pointed to the stack of pieces on the case: "Take them all to the prince for approval, my body is becoming less and less useful, and after watching it for a while, I feel dizzy." ”
"With His Royal Highness the Crown Prince worrying about national affairs, the emperor should rest at ease to recuperate the dragon body, follow the instructions of Danyang Zhenren and Tai Hospital, and avoid exertion." Gao Deyi paused and asked, "What ......are the eyes and ears of the prince's mansion?"
"Withdraw, whether it is a monarch or a father and son, it is not beneficial to the family and the country to suspect each other, and I still hope that at least after the crown prince succeeds to the throne, one day he will be able to take back the privileges of the factory guard."
Gao Deyi, as the director of the East Factory, did not resist the idea that the East Factory would be removed one day, smiled and said with a smile, and acted on orders with a relaxed pace.
